Dark Avenger.

Chapter 41: Join.

After finishing all the lessons. It's time for us to go back to our dorm. As I'm about to leave. At this point, I've grab my Keycard already and just ready to take shower.

Rushia instantly grab my back collar and drag me.

"We're going to the Club Lukewarm. I hope you didn't forget that. If you did. You are truly a Lukewarm."

Ah right. I forgot about Club. I'm so tired that I forgot anything about joining club. Well, I can't cancel it now...

"Don't grab my Collar Lazy. I don't have that much power to walk. If you drag me, You're going to actually kill me."

I said. She let go of my collar and I slam the back of my head on the floor. I instantly in pain but manage to get back up. I follow her from the back with tired look.

How much is this girl stamina?! She still going strong! Damn it! I lost confidence as a Boy!

Rushia is still walking properly, Back straight, Vision forward. While I look like I'm at my Old Age. Rushia turn around and see me almost died.

"Should I carry you Lukewarm?"

She said. This girl... She's teasing me huh... Well then.

"Shut up Lazy. I can walk on my own."

"Really? I think you're the Lazy one here."

She said calmly. Now I'm pissed off... I know that I always called her Lazy. But being told Lazy by her is another matter.

"Let's race then!"

I challenge her. Without any hesitation. She run toward the Club really fast.

"Ah! You! WAIT!"

I instantly force myself to run after her. Remember, My Stamina is SSS! If that's the case, Her Stamina must be SSS+ or something...

I force myself to catch up to her with my already tired leg. She was pretty surprised when she sees me right beside her. She look at me and said.

"So you can do this."

I just nodded while panting. Eventually, We arrived in front of the Hobby Club. Rushia is finally seen tired.

I open the door and just get welcomed by the others.

"Welcome Trevor and Rushia! Nice seeing you guys today!"

Sigred said. I just nodded. Rushia push me down and just walk over me.

"Lazy... You bastard..."

I muttered after she push me down. She just tell me.

"Just rest for a bit Lukewarm. Let me get something nice to cool you down."

She said. Well, Thanks. Sigred and the Other pull me to a couch and just sat me down there.

"Oh Right... I want to join Hobby Club. Is that fine? I know there's no boy in here."

I said. Sigred, Erin and Helena immediately replied.

"Of course!"

Oh, That's easier than I thought.... Well, I think when Rushia invites me over, She know the other will accept my join application. Or they're the one who told Rushia to invite me over? I don't know really...

Everyone here is doing their own thing. Sigred is just humming while writing something, Erin is playing a Guitar while Helena is sowing some clothes.

You know what, I guess this is the perfect time to actually do my research. I grab my Notebook from my Inventory and started writing. Of course, I was looking at my Screen while I was doing that.

Let's see... Rushia said that, She have Special Eyes and Thought Acceleration. To be honest, I don't think I can find something like her Eyes of the Fighter. But I can probably find something similar.

I started Searching for skill called Eyes. I see 3 Skill with the Word Eyes in it. That is, Eagle Eyes, Hawk Eyes, and Eyes of the Storm.

Eagle and Hawk Eyes is essentially the Same Skill. But one is more focused to increase focus while the other to increase the range of your Vision.

And Eyes of the Storm enable me to see what Weather is going to come in the future if I look at the Sky. Pretty Neat! But not that useful for fighter like me.

Before I can finish my Research, Rushia come out with a big plater of Fried Chicken. This girls loves cooking Chicken huh...

"Everyone, Come and eat."

She said. She look at me and said.

"Lukewarm, Eat it. I put more Salt in your Chicken so, Hopefully, It can replenish a bit of your Stamina."

She said. I'm really thankful for that. I grab my Portion and started eating. Rushia sat down on her one person Couch and look around. The other girl is grinning. I can see that she's a bit pissed off.

Her eyes are twitching and her mouth are twitching as well... I can definitely see Her Screaming after this because of the other shenanigans.

"Hey Ruu~ Didn't you going to ask something?~"

Erin asked. Hm? Ruu? Is that Rushia nickname? It's pretty cute. I look at her and she just sighed.

"You guys... Why are you putting me on the spot like this?"

She said awkwardly. I finished the Fried Chicken and then continue my Research.

"Hey Lukewarm. How's the Chicken? Is it good?"

She asked awkwardly. I look at her and said.

"Yeah it's good! Thanks for the meal! Ruu~"

I decided to tease her a bit and she fling her White Hope toward me. I grab her White Hope and instantly get shocked by it.

Her White Hope vanished and goes back inside her.

"Don't call me Ruu..."

She said while looking away from me. Hey, you're cute...

Everyone can be seen grinning at us. I just gather my thought and move on. Everyone else also move on. The girls keep talking about stuff while I casually listen while looking at my Status.

Alright, Continue with the Skill Research. Let's search Thought Acceleration.

I search for that Particular Skill and I found it. I read the information First. Let's see... Thought Acceleration. Increase the Speed of your Thinking Process by 50%.

Oh? At the Start, I can speed my Thought Process by 50%. That's neat. The Skill Point needed is 25. That's not a lot either.

I guess it's worth the price. I grab the Skill. Fortunately, It's an Active Skill, Not a Passive Skill. If I constantly in the State of Thought Acceleration, It's going to drive me insane. I can use this in Exam as well.... Hehehe....

"Hey Trevor! Are you Listening?!"

Suddenly, Sigred screamed at me. I flinched and look at her.

"Y-Yeah!"

"You're not huh... Well then, I want you to answer My Question! Are you going to join the Yearly Class Competition?"

She asked me. I look at Rushia. Is there something like that? She understand my Gaze and explain it further.

"So Lukewarm. Yearly Class Competition is an Honored Tradition in this Imperial Knight Academy. Where People get to watch everyone Compete With Each other. And Usually, There's a Lot of Competition Available. From Normal Sports Match into Team Fight."

She said. I understand the Gist of the Event. You know what, That's pretty interesting.

"I think I would Join... If there's a Prize Pool Of course."

I said. Helena look at me and said.

"Oh there's a BIG Prize Pool. Don't you worry about it."

She said. Really? That's pretty promising. Sigred look at me with interested eyes.

"Really?! What Competition are you going to join?"

"Probably Team Fight. Wait, Is there Solo Competition?"

I asked. Everyone nodded.

"Or Maybe Solo Fight."

Rushia look at me and said.

"Silly Lukewarm. Just Joined me in Team Competition. It's a Guarantee Win."

She said. Everyone else Looked at us both. They grinned toward Rushia and I can see She started to get pissed off. By me. Oops... I need to calm her down.

"If you want to. Let's team up! When is the Competition?"

I asked. I genuinely Interested in this Competition. I can't wait to fight someone strong.

"The Competition is Next Week."

Rushia said. Alright. I have One Week to prepare everything. Let's start!
