Chapter 52
While everyone enjoyed the movie and the exciting scenes on the movie, they were startled when they heard the sound of the riffle that echoed through the room.
*Bang!* *Bang!* *Bang!*
Fear, anxiety, and many different negative emotions started to appear on the faces of everyone in this place.
“Help!”
“Please don’t kill us!”
Everyone started to beg and scream, but the man with the riffle ignored them and shot his weapon at the sky several times to shut them up.
“SHUT UP! IF YOU DON’T WANT TO BE KILLED, HURRY UP AND FOLLOW ME!”
There was nothing that they could do, and they could only follow the man obediently since they weren’t Blazers or someone who had the power to fight the group of criminals.
Stella wanted to do something, but Tsukasa stopped her. “Tsukasa?”
Tsukasa shook his head and said in a low voice, “Don’t be in a hurry. That guy isn’t the only one. They come in a group, and if you take him out, the other might notice and kill everyone.”
“As Tsukasa said, they should make everyone a hostage, and they won’t kill them. But if you do something for them, it might lead to a different result,” Nene said and added.
While there was no discrimination over the Blazers, and everyone thought of them as saviors, there were many people who feared them and thought of them as a source of trouble.
If their actions led to the deaths of hostages, without a doubt, it would tarnish their names, especially Stella and Nene, who were the princess of the Vermillion and third-ranked Blazer in the KOK A-League, respectively. While they might not care, their name might be tarnished. It would bring a bad taste to their mouth if they let someone die under their presence.
“Okay.” Stella calmed herself after she heard their explanation. She was a princess of a country, and while she was quite stupid and perverted, her purpose in coming to Japan was to become stronger so she could protect everyone in her empire, so she also understood that the safety of the hostages must be first instead of beating everyone to a pulp.
While her power might be a fire and give her the impression of being impatient, Stella could be calm during the crisis, showing her quality as a princess, which was quite unexpected for Tsukasa.
“Still, why did you suddenly appear on our side?” Nene suddenly asked, causing Stella to lose her calm instantly.
“…..” Tsukasa, who was good at acting, was speechless since he didn’t expect that Stella’s calm would be broken right now. “Now, this isn’t the time to talk about this, right?”
“I know.” Nene nodded, then smiled and said to Stella, “You must be jealous of us, so you follow us, right?”
Somehow hearing those words, Tsukasa and Stella let out a sigh of relief on their heart instantly. They were afraid that their affairs would be known by Nene. Luckily, Nene didn’t realize it, and they could close the curtain of what had happened between them peacefully.
However, Stella was smart, so she snorted and looked away unhappily, which made Nene satisfied since she thought she was right.
‘Is this the time for you to feel smug?’ Tsukasa was speechless, but he looked at Stella thoughtfully, clearly didn’t expect this girl to use her head well.
“Hey, what are you talking about over there?! Do you want to be killed?! Hurry up and get your ass here!”
The man noticed the three and threatened them with another round of bullets.
*Bang!* *Bang!* *Bang!*
“Stella, wear your facemask and sunglasses,” Tsukasa said since Stella’s identity was quite sensitive, and if the terrorists knew that she was here, they might take a different approach.
Stella nodded since her popularity was high in this country, so it was better to keep her identity hidden.
“Still, I don’t like to do this,” Stella said in a low voice. She was furious and growled when she thought how helpless she was in this situation. If there was something that she could do to help everyone, then she would do it.
Unfortunately, there wasn’t any, and her power was only suitable to beat up the enemy instead of saving a group of people.
“Calm down, Princess,” Nene said since she was afraid Stella might do something stupid.
“Well, how about this…” Tsukasa suddenly whispered something to the ears of Nene and Stella.
Nene and Stella’s eyes glowed in the dark as they showed off their excited smiles when they heard Tsukasa’s plan.
Tsukasa looked at Nene and Stella and thought that the two were the same type of people, making him speechless.
When they were about to pass the terrorist that threatened everyone, they looked at each other and started their plan!

“I see…”
Kurono had a headache when she thought her students were implicated in a terrorist accident at a nearby shopping mall. “You don’t need to worry. The police have surrounded the place.” Her cigarette was slowly burning by the fire, and the ashes dropped on her skirt, but she didn’t care and focused on her communication with Ikki.
“Who are the perpetrators?” Ikki asked.
“It’s a criminal organization with a Blazer,” Kurono said as she looked into the information for the terrorists. “They’re asking for a ridiculously high amount of money.”
Ikki let out a tired sigh and said, “If money is what they want, there’s gotta be an easier way.”
“Guys like that want something more than money.” Kurono turned off the fire of her cigarette on an ashtray. “It’s seeing people terrified and controlling them. The police are asking for your assistance. Therefore, by the authority of the director, I’m approving to the five of you the use of the Device outside the school.” She ended her conversation with Ikki and felt that she shouldn’t be worried too much, considering Nene, her rival, was there.
However, it might be because the one who was there was her rival that Kurono knew about Nene well that besides destroying, Nene wasn’t good at anything.
Kurono could only let out a long sigh, wondering how they were caught in the trouble.
“Rebellion…”
Reading the name of the organization where those people were coming from, Kurono squinted her eyes and folded her arms before she puffed her cigarette again, letting the white smoke vanish in the air.
Kurono might feel nervous, but strangely enough, she was also calm, especially when she knew that Tsukasa was there.
However, if there was something that Kurono had to watch for, she wondered whether the relationship between Nene and Tsukasa had become so close that they had gone on a date together.
‘Should they go to the hotel together?’ Kurono felt that her mind became complicated and thought she might need to dry her husband again tonight since she was afraid that she might be seduced by Tsukasa.
If Tsukasa knew that Kurono labeled him as someone who was more dangerous than a group of terrorists, he might only be able to laugh bitterly, thinking that his charm was amazing.
Still, compared to a group of terrorists, the feeling of being sandwiched by Stella and Nene was even more dangerous since one wrong move, Tsukasa knew that he might be stabbed to death.
