A temporary meeting room

Here sat a group of teenagers dressed in wine-red clothes. On both sides of the rectangular meeting table, the teenagers all had serious expressions. At the end of the meeting table sat a wine-red haired boy, quietly sitting there, as if deep in thought. Beside him stood a short black-haired boy.

“You all saw those two matches today, didn’t you?”

The quiet atmosphere was broken. This figure drew everyone’s attention, and they all looked towards the wine-red haired boy sitting at the head.

“Yes, we did.”

A boy nodded upon hearing this.

“Regarding Saegusa Mayumi, the student council president of First High, and Watanabe Mari, the disciplinary committee chairperson of First High, have you all looked into their past matches?”

“Their strength has increased too much compared to before. I’ve already investigated, and although both of them are very strong, they weren’t this terrifying last year.”

“They also won their matches last year. Their strength is undeniable, very strong, but they hadn’t reached the point of directly crushing their opponents like today.”

“Compared to last year’s match records, if they defeated their opponents with overwhelming strength, I would rather think it was due to other external reasons.”

“Masaki, you’re talking about the engineer, right!”

As soon as Ichijou Masaki, the leader of Third High, finished speaking, the short black-haired boy beside him knew what Ichijou Masaki wanted to say.

“Yes, you’re right, George.”

Ichijou Masaki glanced at his friend. Their thoughts were exactly the same.

“But the CADs they used aren’t any different from ours, are they?”

A girl looked at the two with a puzzled expression.

“Indeed, the CADs they used are the same as ours, both are specialized CADs for competitions. But precisely because of this, it highlights the immense skill of the engineer.”

“You all know that the CADs we own are basically superior in performance to these competition-use CADs. This is a restriction of the competition rules, and it’s also to further emphasize the strength of the participants.”

“Yes, even my CAD was debugged to competition level.”

Hearing George’s words, Ichijou Masaki also nodded in agreement.

“But the engineer’s skill alone shouldn’t be enough to achieve this, right?”

A boy said, somewhat disbelievingly.

“But he did it!”

Ichijou Masaki’s expression was serious. This was what he found particularly outrageous.

“George, you saw that magic, didn’t you?”

Ichijou Masaki suddenly changed the subject, leaving everyone in the meeting room a little confused.

“Yes, it was clearly different from acceleration-type magic, but it was indeed acceleration magic. Very strange.”

Kichijouji Shinkurou nodded.

When it came to magic talent, no one was stronger than Kichijouji Shinkurou. This wasn’t arrogance on his part, but because his magic talent was truly powerful. He was once known as “Origin George” at the age of 13 for discovering the Origin Code. However, at the moment he saw that magic today, his confidence was somewhat shaken.

He clearly remembered how the magic activated, the golden light that erupted in that instant, and the sudden speed, all profoundly shocking his soul. What he found even more incomprehensible was how Watanabe Mari endured the immense pressure generated by such powerful and rapid speed.

He couldn’t see the expression on his face at the time, but now he felt that the expression on his face must have been extremely spectacular.

That was indeed not acceleration-type magic; he dared to guarantee it with the reputation of “Origin George”!

“Yes, it looked somewhat like light magic, but as far as I know, neither Saegusa Mayumi nor Watanabe Mari are proficient in such magic. Anyone can do simple applications, but we can’t achieve that level.”

Ichijou Masaki frowned, slowly analyzing.

“Indeed!”

Kichijouji Shinkurou nodded in agreement.

“So, I noticed the man behind Saegusa Mayumi and Watanabe Mari!”

Ichijou Masaki said, taking out his portable terminal. A photo was projected.

“First High, First Year Class A, Chiba Yuuya?”

A Third High elite looked at the information below the photo and couldn’t help but read it aloud.

“Yes, I also looked into this person. However, due to time constraints, I didn’t learn much. I only know that he is Saegusa Mayumi and Watanabe Mari’s engineer, and he seems to have been involved in that incident at First High. As for the rest, I don’t know.”

Kichijouji Shinkurou shared the information he had.

However, seeing Kichijouji Shinkurou’s keen gaze fixed on the person in the photo, Ichijou Masaki was also very interested in this person. Moreover, he knew more through the Ichijou family’s channels.

Ichijou Masaki had only just found out, but that guy had only participated in one Ice Pillars Break. He had no direct contact with either himself or George. However, according to the information from his family, the men’s Ice Pillars Break was most likely going to lose.

Ichijou Masaki had never known there was such a person at First High. Now that he knew, he was naturally very interested, and he couldn’t help but have the idea of befriending him.

He had been on the battlefield and had early contact with others, understanding what a great advantage it was to have a powerful friend. Because of this, the “Crimson Prince” developed a great interest, after all, that guy’s strength was definitely not inferior to Ichijou Masaki’s.

“Yes, I just didn’t expect Chiba Yuuya’s engineer skill to be so strong.”

“It seems that in the future, when facing competitors he is responsible for, our competitors will be at a disadvantage from the start.”

Ichijou Masaki put away his thoughts and sighed. He had no good solution for this. He was not an engineer but a competitor, willing but powerless.

“The bad news is that this guy also participated in the men’s Ice Pillars Break, and he will continue to be responsible for Saegusa Mayumi and Watanabe Mari’s CAD debugging. The good news is that he only participated in this one event and is only responsible for these two people’s projects.”

Kichijouji Shinkurou said this information with a serious expression, which brought relief to everyone—well, except for a few students who were competing against Saegusa Mayumi and Watanabe Mari.

Ichijou Masaki looked at the few male students participating in the Ice Pillars Break who seemed unconcerned, and he didn’t know what to say.

“You don’t have to be so pessimistic. He is responsible for very few projects, and participates in even fewer. We just need to win the other competition projects. We can still surpass First High, break their winning streak, and take first place!”

Hearing Ichijou Masaki’s words, everyone smiled.

“That’s right!”

“Could First High possibly produce another amazing engineer?”
