"Principal."
"Yes? Takahashi-sensei."
"There is a bug in the system it seems."
"Yes I saw it, apparently it's connecting that brat's summoned being to a familiar mod I had made. But…since we're in public, we can't cancel it until this round is over. So…"
"I understand. I will pass the message to calm the public."
"Excellent, Takahashi-sensei… Fufu…now use this opportunity to its fullest, you dumb brat."

"AND HERE IT IS FOLKS! YOSHII AKIHISA MANAGED TO CALL OUT HIS SUMMONED BEING ONCE MORE BEFORE BEING TIMED OUT! BUT WHAT'S THIS?!
What the hell?!
Right now, standing before me with the geometrical symbol the same as mine stands a familiar symbol I have encountered in the past. Yes it was a modification from that old hag that created all our summoned beings into something special… They are the Horror Themed Summoned beings…and the being that, I have said, standing before me…was the summoned being, in the darkness of the nights, with the red cape that is tainted by the people he had slaughtered, all because he is searching for his head…and my head is under his arm…The Dullahan.
"What's this?! Ladies and gentlemen, indeed Yoshii Akihisa has managed to summon his summoned being but it is an odd figure… especially that weird thing he's currently holding under his arm."
HEY! DON'T CALL MY HEAD THAT ODD! I'm very attractive to the ladies that they can gather around my majestic head.
"Hm? What? This?! Ladies and Gentlemen, I have a notice from the Principal of Fumizuki Academy. Apparently this is a special summon ability that only the worst academic inclined students can summon, A.K.A "The Punishment Inspector". His ability as a summoned being is applied now to his size.
Damn that old granny, She can't even admit that this was a bug to turn my summoned being into Dullahan randomly and now placing more blame on me! One of these days I will screw your days with a much scarier event than being captured by the FFF.
But for now… I have to deal with these two.
That guy has 1 crystal left but it seems he is still fairly confident of his awareness towards me while fighting Seisa-san.
Since my summoned being is as big as myself that makes the target area much larger for them to attack and to consider their attack strength, they might be able to reduce my points to 0 with just a single hit and send me to hell with that kind of feedback. But…I'm not backing down now!
I placed my summoned being's head to its original position and tried to lock it to its place and prepared my blade.
"Both of you, here I come!"
I declared as I rushed head first…literally…to the battle field. As soon as I rushed in, my head drops off from the shoulders which was connected from and then I accidentally kicked it ahead of me and landing in the middle of their battle. Ouch!...
"Woah! Have you lost your 'mind' there, Kouhai?" he chuckled while making distance with my head.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, it seems Yoshii Akihisa is quite Ahead of the battle…Literally, folks who are not used to falling and rolling heads, please proceed to the other side of the stadium."
"HEY! That really hurts!"
Well…at least my head made my battle more interesting…in a way.
Seisa-san noticed the presence of my decapitated limb and readied herself to strike it with her ability. TCH! I can't pick it up in time. In that case…
"AKIHISA KICK!"
OUCH!
"!"
My head flew directly at her crystal just as soon as she managed to get a lock on it and she was too surprised to react to it that my head landed directly to it.
PAK! CRASH!

Ouch! ... I think I kicked my head too hard on that one but it's my only choice to avoid being attacked too easily. I have to avoid getting any part of my summoned being form her 'killing art'
I dashed passed both of them in order to reclaim my lost head. And I get a headache just because of that feed back earlier.
"Hey Kouhai, got your head back in the A-game?"
"Yeah…I just need to put my head on straight…" I punned back as I placed myself back into the position.
The good thing about the situation now is that we're all in equal standing; it only takes a hit to force us to lose this match. But the intensity of the battle never fades as the sempai launched his attack simultaneously to Seisa-san's killing art, dodging and attacking is like watching a sword dance between professionals. I with the speed proportioned to my summoned being's size. The difficulty I had being a small one fades as we are now clashing our weapons and dodging Seisa-san's attack that comes in between us.
"Pant…pant…You're good there, Kouhai-kun."
"Huff…huff…Likewise, Sempai."
"…boys…" she sighed at the exhausting image of our state.
Their crystals have a small crack on them from that long conflict, a good hit will definitely break it but I have to consider my situation as well. I have defended myself from major attacks but the feedback made me feel like I lose some amount of points to it. In this case, we can't afford to get hit at any given point.
I have to come up with a good strategy. I can't kick my head again because they'll be both expecting hit…also I don't want to have another lump on my head. Also these guys are quite experienced in combat that I don't have any way to surprise them with my actions that I have used in the past.
So what can I use? What do I do to defeat these 2 geniuses in combat? ...Genius? Genius. Genius! I'm a genius! ...there's only one thing that surprises geniuses.
First I have to condition them.
"Special attack! Akihisa Slash!"
"Heh! It isn't much of a special attack if it's easy to block it."
"Tch!"
Sinomiya-sempai managed to block my attacks once more but I have to keep doing this.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the battle in block B is over but Block A's battle is prolonging the inevitable. Who will face the warrior of block B? Let's find out!"
Tch! ...I've been taking my time and so far we've been clashing each other non-stop and starting to lose focus.
"Huff…Huff…Seems…we need to end this…"
"Huff…huff…"
"Huff…huff…Yeah! Let's end this showdown!"
We once again charged towards the middle.
"Look here folks! It seems they're wrapping things up in this side! Who will win this final moment?!
I raised my sword once more and declared my attack.
"SPECIAL ATTACK! AKIHISA SLASH!"
"Oi! Oi! Didn't I tell you about 15 times already that won't work?!"
Of course I expect it won't work but…
Pop!
"Eh?"
"?!"
"D-Did that head just popped off on it's own? Again, everyone who are weak at heart shall look away at this accident."
The parry did the trick of immobilizing Shigure-sempai…Now!
"Hidden Attack! CLASS F SPECIAL! SURPRISE AKIHISA KNEE KICK!"
I launched my falling head with the strength of my knee and bounced off from my chest heading to the crystal reducing it into fine fragments.
CRASH!

"I can't even believe what's just happened, folks! The contender, Yoshii Akihisa managed to loop his opponent then suddenly created a new attack pattern out of the blue to defeat Ninomiya Shigure. He is now out of the game which leaves him helpless against Mikagura Seisa! What will happen now?!"
I can't…I mustn't lose…I CAN'T LOSE!
"Killing…Art!"
"AKIHISA KICK!"
In my quick reflexes on the prolonged battle, I finally managed to find her time delay and kicked my head out of the way before both of them are targeted. It hurts like hell now but I won't give up now! I've come this far.
I picked up my head off the ground where it landed and began to run around the field avoiding her attacks.
"…Gotcha!"
"!...D-Damn!"
This is so sudden…She managed to keep up with my summoned being and even halted it with her own hands.
"…Sorry."
Tch! ...Is this really over? I don't have the right to face Seisa-san? …Is this really goodbye?! …
…
No!...
There's one more thing…
"Killing…"
Just one trump card…A dark card which I haven't shown her…The one thing that I am desperately hiding myself in front of her. The only other thing, Yoshii Akihisa, is known for.
"I'm…sorry…"
This…Is my card.
"...?!"
"CLASS F TECHNIQUE! SPRING WIND!"
WOOSH!
"K-Kyaah!"
"Children of young age! COVER YOUR EYES! Yoshii 'The Super Pervert' Akihisa has used his skirt-flipping technique."
""ELIMINATE HIM! ELIMINATE THE HERETIC!""
""PRAISE HIM! PRAISE THE HERO OF YOUTH!""
I'm sorry Seisa-san, I knew there's a kind girl in you and hopefully forgives this savage beast…
"Now's my chance! AKIHISA SLASH!"
…But for now…Please…Wait for me.
CRASH!

"UNBELIEVABLE FOLKS! IT WAS A TERRIBLE ACTION KNOWN TO MAN-KIND BUT YOSHII AKIHISA HAS DEFEATED 2 OF THE ELITES OF MIKAGURA PRIVATE SCHOOL! ITS INCREDIBLE BUT FOUL!"
"…"
"…Uhm…Seisa-sa-" Before I could even talk to her. Seisa-san immediately turned her reddened face away from me and walked away. EH!? W-WHY?!
"Hey, Kouhai! Didn't expect you to be 'that' desperate in battle!"
"…Y-yeah…" Shigure-sempai approached me in his cheery manner and patted me on the back. But I felt my heart is still empty…cold…alone…
"…Worried about Seisa-san?" he muttered as he saw me staring from where Seisa-san once stood. I can't even nod to reply to how dark my vision is…it's like I'm dying.
"…Let's make a deal, Kouhai-chan. I'll do something for you, while you do something for me."
I don't know what he's talking about but it seems to have caught my interest a bit.
"Deal? I just want you not to let my Eruna-chan win. Okay?"
He's speaking to me in hopes…maybe I can trust this guy to help me. My vision suddenly lightens itself once more and agreed to his offer.
"Great! Good luck on the match!"
I see…So he'll help me if I can…Wait!
"'Don't let Eruna-san win'?!"
Those words suddenly hit me. It can't be…I pulled out the Mikagura School handheld and looked at the tournament bracket.
