Chapter 3:

Enemies already?! II

Nero: Hero In An Unknown World


"Nero-senpai...?"

Ah shit, I zoned out for too long! Tomo must think I am such a weirdo now..

"S-Sorry, I was lost in thought thinking about something when you asked me that. I actually don't really know my own magical ability you see."

"What? How come you don't know it, and at your age too?"

"Well, I didn't even know I had powers up until recently. It happened in an accident where I had to protect my sister from being killed in front of me. In a fit of rage, I exploded with power destroying everything around me. So even after taking my magic aptitude test, I still don't know how strong I am.."

Tomo looked and I could see that he was in awe with my story. It wasn't like in awe of sadness but of surprise and excitement. It confused me because since I came here people always dislike me for not being able to control my power.

"Senpai, I think that is... AMAZING!!"

Yep, I knew he was gonna say something like that after hearing a story like that, shoot, I would too.

While I was talking with Tomo though, I could feel an unbearable presence forming behind me or next to me, I can't really tell. There are a lot of strong kids in this class, So at any given moment anyone can become an enemy of me or my friends. Just then, my suspicions became true.

"You there.. you freak."

I turned around to see who was looking at me, but before I could even do so I noticed my body was being forcefully pushed on the ground by this strong force. I couldn't even look up to whoever was doing, and I don't have good enough knowledge or control over my power to do anything to help myself either.

"NERO-SENPAI!"

I heard Tomo yell my name, and everything in the classroom got very quiet. It felt as if the whole class was listening to what was going with us. Sachi and Masuki come running over to see what is going on.

"Shoji-san, let NeNe go, now!"

"That's right, who the hell do you think you are?! That's my brother your stepping on you ass!"

I felt the pressure building up with Masuki power rising and rising as each second went by, I never noticed how much stronger she could get in seconds of her seeing me like this, makes me a little happy to know my lovely little sister cares that much about something happening to me.

"Shut up! Get mad all you want, that puny magic power isn't gonna do a damn thing to me! You're too weak to even do any real damage to me."

Masuki backed down after hearing those words, I've never seen her back down from anything in my life. She looked so scared to even step closer to me, just who is this guy?!

"M-Masuki, I'm O-Okay.. Don't worry everything is going to be okay."

"Big brother.."

"Who are you?.."

This person magic power just, unreal. It's so powerful and I can really it pouring out of them like water.

"I'm Shoji Higashiyama, the strongest in the school. 'Don't know how strong you are' my ass! Please, boring weirdos like you have no business in this school. I'll prove it too you, you're just weak."

I manage to use my ability of wind, and press myself off the ground at mach speed. Then once I do that, I move as fast I can to the other side of the classroom, this surprising everyone including my sister. Guess she never got the chance to see some of my abilities on display.

"Well look at that, you're pretty fast for a loser."

"You know, picking on someone who is 'weaker' than you because your intimidated makes you seem a whole lot weaker than me."

"Why you..."

I concentrated my energy into my hands and felt it surging again. I teleported right behind him in a blink of an eye, he didn't even expect to happen. I put my hand right against his side and sent flying, bouncing off of the wall.

"Just because I don't KNOW the extent of my power, doesn't mean I don't know how to fight. All my life I've had to fight, and its been against asswipes like you."

I was pissed, this guy really pissed me off.

"Nero-senpai...Masuki-chan, I didn't know your brother was so strong and fast."

"Honestly, me neither, I have never seen this side of him, only once, but I was so young.. Nice to meet you by the way, I'm Nero's sister, Masuki Toujo."

"Pleasure meeting you, I'm Tomo Kitakawa and I'm glad to be friends with your brother, hes amazing."

"He sure is, but uh, are you a boy? Because you really look like a girl, maybe I'm imagining things but.."

"YES YES I AM A BOY!!"

"O-Okay, sorry about that haha."

Well, that's one situtation I did not wanna deal with, good thing I reacted as fast as I did. He was strong, but why me? I'm new here and I don't have any issues with anyone here, not yet at least... Karin was right, maybe I can talk to her about this soon.
