Tanuki Rise of the Yokai Clan

Chapter 81: Helpless protagonist

"Is... Is this for real?"

"Am I not dreaming, right?"

"One hundred percent compatibility! Isn't this the first time in history!"

All the staff was quickly thrown into surprise by the result of the test since it was the first time for someone to have such a score on the test.

One hundred percent compatibility.

What did it represent? It meant that there was no perfect wielder of Ser-Veresta other than him in this world!

He was perfect!

While the staff were surprised and quickly gathered all the data they could collect, Claudia and Kirin smiled and were happy about his successes.

Meanwhile, Lester and his two followers knew that the name "King" would be absolute from now on.

Only Amagiri didn't really understand what was happening and was even confused by the commotion which occurred in this place. He narrowed his eyes and tried to search for something, but he couldn't see anything except that Tamazuki could perfectly wield the Ser-Vesta already.

Usually, when one held an Orga Lux, their Prana would be sucked dry like a vacuum cleaner sucked all the dust on the dusty ground, yet, the Prana, which he needed to maintain the Ser-Veresta, was rather normal. It was like how one wielded a normal Lux, which made Amagiri unable to see the special thing about this weapon, yet as if reading his mind, Tamazuki and Ser-Vereta quickly reacted.

"Is-Is this the power of the Ser-Veresta?!"

"It's hot!"

"Inugamigyoubu-san! Please calm down! Don't destroy the facility!"

The intense heat emitted from the Ser-Veresta.

Even if Tamazuki was rather far, everyone in this place could feel the intense heat which was enough to burn them. Fortunately, most of them were Genestellar, so their physical ability was stronger, and they could use their Prana to protect themselves from the heat, but even so, it took their all to protect themselves.

Everyone hoped that Tamazuki could stop since, at this moment, they felt like they were being grilled by an open flame.

They were about to be roasted alive!

Yet, Tamazuki, who received the reward "Immunity" from Claudia, knew that he started to have heat immunity, which made him immune to heat and probably fire too. Combined with his "Enhanced Learning," he quickly mastered this new passive ability of his. Still, unlike him, the others didn't have a similar ability, so he quickly reduced the heat from the Ser-Veresta, and the facility quickly turned on the cooling down system.

By now, everyone sighed in relief and thought it was fortunate the facility was located under the sea, or else all of their devices would be overheated, cooked by the heat of Ser-Veresta.

Still, he had confirmed that the Ser-Veresta could easily raise its temperature to 3,000 degrees Celsius. It might be able to raise its temperature more, but the holder of this weapon might not be able to stay and melt under the intense heat.

'Let's try to change its shape.'

From one edge-sword to two edge-sword, a small knife, then a massive ten meters blade, to a whip-like weapon before turning it into a cannon-like weapon by shooting a bullet of heat.

He could change the shape of the weapon into a variety of shapes because of how malleable the heat of the Ser-Veresta was.

Except for changing its shape, he could tell that the power of this weapon was far from simple, which made him amazed, thinking that this was really the weapon of the protagonist.

Still, if possible, he wanted to make this weapon even better since he could tell that Ser-Veresta was still unable to release its full potential.

As if reading his intention, the Ser-Veresta was also excited as the heat from this weapon seemed to dance in happiness with its newfound master.

"...."

Everyone stayed still, gawking with their mouths wide open at his performance. The mastery of his new weapon was far better than those who had held this weapon for many years, or rather; it was their first time to see someone who could master this weapon so skillfully.

The famous wilful Ser-Veresta also became so obedient, like a licking dog, who wanted to pursue its loved one.

By now, their gazes on him might not be different from those gods or heroes in the legends. Those from Northern Europe would think of him as Thor with his hammer. Those from Japan would think of him as Prince of Yamato Takeru with Kusanagi no Tsurugi. Those from China would think of him as Pangu with his axe.

Ser-Vereta might be a sword, but this sword could become anything in his hands.

Unlike the original protagonist, who couldn't control Ser-Veresta because he thought of it as something better, something that he needed to take care of, or something that he needed to serve. Yet, it was something normal because, as a light novel protagonist, his "Yasashi" trait was his most attractive trait according to the heroines, right?

However, for Tamazuki, Ser-Veresta was nothing but a weapon. It was something that served to make him powerful. If he found something more powerful, he would just throw it away, so Ser-Veresta did its best to serve him, so it could be loved and wouldn't be abandoned by him.

Tamazuki didn't need to do anything, and all the Orga Luxes wanted to serve him like the king, like their beloved lovers, like he was their parents. But, whatever he was in the eyes of the Orga Luxes, which had their own sentiments, it was the first time everyone saw this type of scene, so until he finished testing the power of this weapon, no one could react.

"I will go back first, Claudia."

Tamazuki thought that it was enough, so he decided to return. "Let's go, Kirin."

"Ye-Yes!" Kirin quickly followed Tamazuki with a smile, thinking that her teacher had become even stronger.

"Wa-Wait! I will follow you too!" Claudia quickly followed up.

"Didn't you need to wait for them?" As for Lester or Amagiri, Tamazuki wasn't interested in any of them, or rather it would be weird if he showed interest in them with his current persona. Yet, he had to say; he was a bit interested in what kind of Orga Lux Amagiri would choose after Ser-Veresta was taken by him.

"It's okay. The staff is here. They can help with the procedure."

With that said, Claudia didn't think that Lester and Amagiri could have a good result on the test compatibility of the Orga Lux, or rather, she couldn't see a chance for them to have good compatibility. Amagiri aside, since she didn't know anything about this boy who she thought entered the school because of nepotism, Lester had hardly a chance to wield an Orga Lux since he had failed three times.

In other words, it was a waste of time to wait for them.

Saying a few words to the staff, she quickly followed Tamazuki and Kirin, leaving Amagairi, Lester, and his followers behind. However, they didn't say anything.

Why?

Because they knew even if they held an Orga Lux, Tamazuki wasn't an opponent that they could defeat in their lives.

However, unlike Lester, who had fallen into despair, Amigiri thought he still had a chance since he could become stronger as long as the seal on his body was released. The only unfortunate thing, he knew the Ser-Veresta was really a dangerous weapon, and he wondered whether there was an Orga Lux that could match it.
