The next day, afternoon.
At the entrance of Kouou Girls’ Academy.
Ding-a-ling…
The school bell rang with the clear, delicate chime of wind bells, and the ornate iron gates slowly opened.
“Stop eating, Hibiki.
You’ve gotten fatter lately.” “What?
I’ve been working out recently, okay?
Mmm…
sho good…” A large crowd of high school girls in cute JK uniforms poured out through the gates, their chestnut-colored leather shoes tapping lightly against the granite pavement.
“Aren’t we supposed to be looking for a fighter?” “Then why are we at this rich-girl academy?” Mitani Hana, who was in charge of driving, sat in the driver’s seat and stared at the energetic girls passing by outside, her expression full of confusion.
“If you don’t get it, then shut up!” Iori Ichika immediately snapped back at her with a vicious glare.
“So, which one is it?” Tenma Nozomi sat in the back seat, tilting her head as she scanned the crowd outside.
“Hongou Hina.
The most dangerous high school girl in history!” Ichika explained, “Her real name is Takahashi Hina.
She was originally the adopted daughter of Takahashi Chogen, the cult leader of [Army of God].” “Army of God?” “That cult organization?” Hana’s pupils shrank, and the fingers hidden inside her kimono sleeves curled unconsciously.
As a yakuza boss, of course she had heard of that group.
“That’s right.
Takahashi Chogen was seriously preparing to go to war with the upper levels.” Ichika nodded.
“He recruited a huge number of talented believers and organized them into a unit stronger than a military force.
Professional-level hand-to-hand combat was only the baseline.
To truly qualify, they had to be able to handle all kinds of firearms and modern weapons as naturally as extensions of their own arms.” “Three years ago, they even planned to launch a revolution under the banner of ‘saving humanity.’ They intended to overthrow the country through a biochemical attack.” By the end, even Ichika’s face showed a trace of lingering fear.
“A biochemical attack?” “That’s way too terrifying, isn’t it?” “What happened after that?” Hana fired off three frightened questions in a row.
“Did the police stop the incident?” “No.” Ichika shook her head.
“Before the plan could be carried out, Takahashi Chogen suddenly died.
Army of God fell apart because of that, and the plan was scrapped.
As for Hongou Hina, she was adopted by a wealthy family and transformed overnight into a proper young lady.” “But some believers also reported that she was the one who manipulated Takahashi Chogen.” “Because Takahashi Chogen only began pushing for armed methods after he adopted her.” “Of course, that was only one believer’s side of the story.
It can’t be taken seriously.
After all, Hongou Hina was not even fourteen when she left Army of God.
There’s no way she could have pulled off something like that.” “Nice story, but I only care about how strong she is.” Compared to terrorist organizations or whatever else, Nozomi cared far more about her own future right now.
After all, if this business venture failed, she would not even be qualified to go back to Valkyria as a ring girl.
“That’s simple.
Test her yourself.” “Look, there she is.” Ichika opened the car door, her gaze locking onto a pink-haired girl who was saying goodbye to her classmates.
The pink-haired girl looked around fifteen or sixteen.
She had a sweet face, slender limbs, and glowing star-shaped patterns in both pupils, while a bright smile always hung on her face.
From her appearance alone, she looked like a perfectly normal, adorable beauty.
“Then I’ll give her a try!” Nozomi jumped out of the car and bounced in place a few times as a warm-up.
When the pink-haired girl drew closer, she said bluntly, “Hey, brat.
Wanna play with big sis for a bit?” “Really?” “You might die, you know?” Seeing Nozomi take a fighting stance, the star-shaped patterns in Hongou Hina’s pupils clearly lit up.
Beneath that dazzling smile, an uncontrollable hunger for battle suddenly leaked out.
… In the suburbs, in front of an abandoned building.
“She’s not here yet?” “I’m so bored!” Jingu Yoru lay sprawled in a tattered recliner full of holes, utterly bored as he sat guard by the entrance.
He still could not figure out what the boss lady was thinking.
According to that delinquent cop Iori Ichika, an undocumented temporary worker like him was perfect for keeping watch.
After all, even if he learned something, he would not dare run his mouth outside.
But weren’t they supposed to be looking for a strong fighter?
Why did they need someone to keep watch?
And why was the location this remote?
He could not understand it at all.
“Still, Kouou Girls’ Academy…
I feel like I’ve heard that name somewhere before.” Thinking back to the destination that delinquent cop had mentioned, Yoru vaguely felt a hint of familiarity.
Beep, beep…
Just as he was about to doze off, a white van sneaked up to the abandoned building.
“Yoru, what are you standing around for?” “Get over here and help carry her!” After the van stopped, Ichika kicked the door open.
A stun gun was still swinging in her hand.
“Carry her?” Yoru walked over in confusion.
“Carry who?” “We had no choice.
This little chick is ridiculously strong.
Nozomi attacked first, but she still got her upper arm kicked swollen.” Ichika said shamelessly, “If we didn’t knock her out with the stun gun, we couldn’t have invited her over!” That was right.
On the surface, Nozomi had shown up to challenge her.
In reality, Ichika had ambushed her from behind with a stun gun and knocked Hongou Hina down.
“Little chick?” “Knocked her out?” “I’m telling you, your group has way too few bottom lines.” Yoru complained while walking toward the van.
Three adults had gone to invite a high school girl, and in the end, they had actually used a stun gun?
How scummy.
“Hm?” “Good.
Very good!
Haha…” But the moment he saw her, Yoru’s own bottom line instantly dropped to the same level as that delinquent cop.
Because…
Because he saw light.
Green light!
Hongou Hina: The most dangerous high school girl in history.
Height: 161 cm.
Weight: 50 kg.
Style: Modern combat.
Techniques: Hand-to-hand combat (Mastery).
Talent Trait: Martial Instinct (Green).
An extremely powerful martial instinct that allows her to easily see through an opponent’s attacks and rapidly absorb their technical experience.
Physical Trait: Extraordinary Tendons (Green).
Tendons are the springs of the human body.
The stronger the tendons, the greater the explosive force.
Extraordinary Tendons are like installing a super spring inside the body.
Even without a complete power release, her speed and explosiveness far surpass ordinary people.
Mental Trait: Battle-Hungry Soul!
(Green).
She does not fear pain.
She even enjoys it.
She possesses a pathological craving for battle, especially when facing powerful opponents.
Ultimate Technique: Rikudou: Sunder Heaven!
By compressing her extraordinary tendons to the absolute limit, then releasing them all at once, she can produce a destructive power far beyond common sense.
… It appeared!
And it was not just one trait.
Talent, mind, and physique were all there, three in one go.
With a panel like this, even in a movie or TV world, she would definitely be a protagonist-level existence.
Haha…
Looking at the delicate-looking girl whose hands were cuffed and whose eyes were covered with a cloth strip, Jingu Yoru looked like a starving ghost that had just seen a feast.
He was only one step away from drooling.
“Bastard.
I told you to carry her, not to come over here and act like a creep.” Then the back of his head took a slap from the delinquent cop, Iori Ichika.
Hah.
Men!
Just a moment ago, he had been saying she had no bottom line, yet now he was grinning even more excitedly than she was.
“Sorry.
Got a little carried away.” Yoru picked up the girl, his gaze burning hot.
The corners of his mouth kept rising no matter how hard he tried to suppress them.
He could finally claim his beginner gift pack.
Haha…
“Hm?” Perhaps because his gaze was too intense, Hongou Hina, who was supposedly “unconscious,” moved her eyes slightly.
Her left hand, which was pressed against Yoru’s abdomen, quietly shifted to the soft flesh at his side.
As long as…
As long as this thug dared to go one step further, she would make sure he lost a chunk of meat!
