Here is the Sixth~

It was now Monday, the day after the uneventful party but slightly to Tatsuya's dismay, others didn't see it as uneventful as the events took to the news early in the morning. Somehow a photograph of Tatsuya wound up on both the documents pages for news articles along with on the TV. Said photo was of him with his hand raised and the white cylindrical projection piercing a hole straight through the man's head, the inside being masked by darkness. The photo seemed to fully grasp the completely bland look in Tatsuya's eyes when he shot the man. No ounce of anything during the act.

Of course, the news was something that everyone watched in the morning. That's if you wake up on time of course. The TV would always be on as you had your morning's breakfast with your family so of course, this information spread quickly. It was a topic of discussion for all the 1st year students in First High, most importantly because what he did was an anomaly. The news had reported the magic that Tatsuya used simply as an unknown magic while utilizing the Yotsuba's Flash Cast.

The problem there being that Tatsuya didn't use an unknown magic, although it was a magic even rarer than Gram Demolition. Would Tatsuya change the view given towards what he did? Of course not, he paid no heed to the speculation of others. It didn't interest him to educate those who didn't know. If they didn't know then it's better for him that it stays that way.

There was another and entirely different problem though because of Tatsuya's way of killing the guy. For people outside of the Yotsuba and the JDSF, he used his hand as a gun while being completely immune to antinite. It was something to be fearful of, this would mean that it would be even harder to get rid of him. To take out competitors at the top, you'd need antinite to do so because while they can settle things on strength alone it can't be down openly and need to be a behind the scenes thing. Then it leads to the fact that Tatsuya is a Yotsuba, the clan who is unparalleled in assassinations and background dealings. It makes him a near impossibility to defeat, the only thoughts there being collateral damage through Strategic-class magic or high-powered rifles that were anti-magic.

That whole thing left something else in play, deal with Tatsuya through his loved ones. But that tactic was also something that wouldn't really be used as this kind of play is why the Yotsubas were called 'The Untouchables'. And it all led to a dilemma for the other Master Clans and in turn foreign groups who were looking to deal with Yotsuba.

In the eyes of the world, even more so when his full abilities have been established. He is a true demon who was brought into the world by a perfect miracle.

…

When Tatsuya and Miyuki walked into the courtyard of First High, that Monday morning, the looks that were directed at him normally were gone. The students were abstaining from doing so, more inclined to keep themselves in their skin. As a Yotsuba, the students knew that he was trained to kill and that he had more than likely already done so. They were somewhat alright with that but given the news that had spread around the country already, they knew that if they irritated him they had absolutely no chance at all to be able to stop him.

This happen stance can only lead to improve Yotsuba's infamous position. As a member of the Ten Master Clans, they should be a clan that is revered and looked up to but they are not. They are a clan that is widely feared, it's a clan that puts people on their toes simply from hearing their name let alone having their presence near. It's also a clan which is able to put the other Master Clans on their toes because of how secretive they are, add onto that that their individual power and ability to use it more than makes up for their lack of numbers in comparison to the other clans.

It all made Yotsuba out to be the villains but within the hearts of the Japanese, they know that it's a necessary evil. Sometimes you have to make a contract with the devil to get through. You don't win battles and war through kindness, you win it through ruthlessness and power. The more evil you are, the more ruthless you become.

As Tatsuya and Miyuki continued their stroll through the centre of the courtyard, an anomaly strikes. Though the anomaly in question wouldn't be so happy to be named as such a thing.

"Tatsuyaaaa-kun~"

It was, of course, Saegusa Mayumi.

The year hasn't been going for long but with idle gossip, small happenings bloom into much more and the fact, couple that with the Saegusa-Yotsuba rivalry then this news becomes all the more fruitful. Especially in regards to the students who value their safety greatly, because as far as they know Tatsuya might do something.

"Ahh Saegusa-kaichou, I hope you were able to have a nice sleep after the commotion from last night."

Despite the fact that his words were kind, his voice was completely neutral. It even caused some of the passer-bys to pale from his lack of recognition to killing a man who hadn't even fired on him the night before, thinking it of something equal to a small row between loved ones.

"Mou~~ Tatsuya-kun, can't you call your Onee-sama like you did last night?"

"No."

Miyuki's expression softened at the abrupt decline, going from a slightly irritated to a relieved smile in a split second.

The brief interaction aside, Tatsuya started to walk again after the initial waiting for Saegusa Mayumi to catch up. And the journey into the school from there was not a quiet and leisurely one that Tatsuya would hope for. The light conversation that Miyuki would strike up with him from time to time on journey like this was pleasurable, they had been together a long time and knew where and what they could speak of. That wasn't the same with Saegusa Mayumi, mainly because she was a whimsical young lady but also because of the differences in clan teachings.

For a lack of any other way to put it, Tatsuya didn't really care for conversing with others idly. If it wasn't important or something that pertained to something exact like politics and the like then Tatsuya wouldn't talk about it. And if the topic was pushed onto him by the opposing party then he would reply abruptly, almost coldly in fashion. It was not that he was ignorant and not that he didn't like it, he just didn't see a need for it. He had grown up only learning about the important things after all.

Regardless of Tatsuya's disinterest for the actual topic that Saegusa Mayumi thought was appropriate, he was actually thankful for her actually coming up to him and mindlessly tattle on to him. It had a calming effect for those around you. While Tatsuya had the ability to unnerve others from his presence alone, Mayumi had the ability to calm those around her. A possible counter in regards to simple presence and one that the students of First High were thankful for.

But the interaction between Tatsuya and Mayumi became something that it really shouldn't have. But there is always someone who thinks in a certain way, and has the ability to make others recognise what they see. The students had already began to couple them together, of course though they only did it when they made triply sure that Tatsuya wasn't around. The simple reasons being that Mayumi was the only person to speak with him so vividly, even if he didn't reply in kind and that she was one of few people not to be turned away from his cold façade and actually get him to speak to her. If they even knew that he would join in with her teasing then the coupling would only grow.

If Tatsuya knew that then it would make his job all the more easier but of course, with everything he has shown/done so far there is no one who would even mutter it in his vicinity.

…

Club Recruitment week was a spectacle to behold for busybodies and those who liked to people watch. Honestly, at times Tatsuya found himself being quite the avid people-watcher.

It was a whole week of hustling and bustling along with some low-key kidnappings, the kidnappings being in the area of so other clubs couldn't get to some students. Nothing really dangerous but it was most definitely a disturbance of relative note. This was why the Public Morals Committee were in full force so to make sure no one was injured because at times the recruitments could be mistaken for mini-riots.

And when news of Tatsuya's involvements in keeping the peace spread round, for once it didn't mean anything less. The only difference being that they were all using their brains more, though in some cases it was borderline a crime. Though, past years has shown that the whole week is pretty hectic with cases getting to the extreme side of the spectrum anyway.

Every club wanted the top students from the new years so in future they could get more funding and recognition from the school. Normally, the clubs wouldn't know such details about students but for some reason, it's become a sort of habit that the new students data gets leaked out onto the school forums. It saves being criminal by restricting enough information so that it only shows basic info that's enough to make clubs go after certain people but of course, the top ten of the first years are always pursued by all clubs. That is everyone but Tatsuya, not many clubs would even bother trying especially with him being recruited into the Student Council straight away which was upon tradition but in truth, he still could be a part of a school club. Tatsuya just doesn't really have the time to do so.

And from the looks of things, most people simply enter the clubs through being coerced into it. All Second course students attend clubs for a majority of reasons, most trying to prove themselves probably.

From the viewpoint of the Public Morals Committee, only one section of clubs dealt with every kind of disturbance. That was the sport sections and the ones which had to be split up for first course and second course because of the magic uses involved in them.

…

With a slight sigh at his lack of coffee, Tatsuya was currently walking beside Miyuki as she was doing her rounds as part of the Public Morals Committee for the Club Recruitment Week. And rather than Tatsuya being there as Miyuki's bodyguard it was more to dissuade any magic outbreak and with the news on Tatsuya being able to pierce holes through people's body without a CAD, no-one would chance a disturbance even really a slight one. But that aspect isn't really needed because of Miyuki.

Miyuki wasn't regarded in the same way that Tatsuya was. Sure they were both seen as the top of the First Year students, academically, magically and appearance-wise but it's the simple difference between genders that made the vast difference in treatment. It wasn't a sexist view either, well not tried to be anyway but there is always someone who could see it as such. No, Miyuki was treated with reverence just like Tatsuya was but no-one really feared Miyuki, instead they feared for her. Her beauty was transcendent in nature, it was beyond perfect in its regard. She was heavenly, divine even. She was art, so fragile but exceptional. And that's why they feared for her, they wouldn't try anything against her because they wanted to keep her pure. No one wanted to taint her.

This kind of thing itself showed how different Miyuki and Tatsuya were. Despite being siblings and spending every day together, their differences were like night and day. Miyuki was seen as this wonderful Goddess and Tatsuya was seen as a Demon. They were on complete opposite sides yet no one opposed them being together, no it was more like no one questioned it. And that wasn't people being paranoid of possible consequences, people just didn't question it. To them, it was almost as if the two opposites were meant to be together so closely.

"Onii-sama, let's take a break."

When Miyuki said this to her brother, they had just stepped into one of the school's many gymnasiums. This one however was currently showcasing the Kendo club which was for Second Course students primarily as it was to use a sword without magic involvement.

The break here being to just watch. Coming up to the rails at the edge of the upper section which overlooked the centre itself, they came to a stop as Tatsuya replied.

"Sure."

At this time however, would normally be where Miyuki shows her womanly instinct to care about her brother's tiredness but this is where the coffee comes in. Miyuki was currently feeling bad for having Tatsuya tag along with her, while being ecstatic at the same time. Reason being that Tatsuya was in the Student Council room the whole school day dealing with whatever was needed so he could join Miyuki on her rounds, though it should be known that Tatsuya more than likely would have skipped the lessons anyway as they were all still to be introductory lessons to the topics they would be learning.

Tatsuya's lack of coffee was due to the school dining system that was in place. Tatsuya was really too busy to just up and leave his lessons to go to the cafeteria to get a coffee whenever he finished and the cooks there weren't allowed to leave just to deliver him a cup of coffee and so he had to do with the automated system dealing with it robotically. Quick and efficient yes but it was lacking the human touch that Tatsuya prefers and quite rightly so, thus meaning he couldn't have his coffee.

Instead of all that, Miyuki did what she did best and prepared ahead for her beloved Onii-sama. She did not come to school with the designated bag but with a larger one although it was only slightly larger, inside of this bag was a tall flask. Unbeknownst to Tatsuya who was currently keeping an eye on the club that was showing off what they did, Miyuki unscrewed the top to the flask and started to pour the hot liquid into the cup, and once the liquid started to pour Tatsuya's attention was gripped onto.

His whole body seemed to turn almost violently at the pleasant smell of the coffee that he was so desperately pining for. But it troubled him to rein in his excitement for keeping up appearances plus a teenager getting all excited over some coffee? Yeah, it wasn't really something even a normal person would go all giddy for in public.

Tenderly taking the small cup from Miyuki's hands, he gave her a small but true smile.

"Thank you Miyuki."

"Anything for you Onii-sama~"

Miyuki gave her reply almost ecstatically. Since the introduction of Saegusa Mayumi to Tatsuya's relatively small bubble, Miyuki has been feeling some pangs of jealousy. Tatsuya had told Miyuki about the order from Yotsuba Maya but that never does much to calm down a maiden's heart.

"Kyaaah!"

The loud scream which was almost a shrill was followed by the dull thud of a body hitting the ground.

Both Miyuki and Tatsuya turned to look at the disturbance rather neutrally, taking note that it was a confrontation between two different clubs they both started to move down from their position on the upper level, much to Tatsuya's dismay as he quickly finished the cup of coffee and passing it back to Miyuki who just smiled happily when receiving the empty cup.

They both came to a stop when they were at the front of the large crowd which had now gathered to watch the confrontation go on, even more interested with Miyuki and Tatsuya being there wanting to see how either of them would go about stopping whatever may transpire.

"That's Mibu Sayaka, she placed 2nd in the National Secondary Level Division Kendo Tournament last year."

Out of seemingly nowhere except Tatsuya's radar, Chiba Erika popped up sticking her head playfully in between Tatsuya and Miyuki with her eyes trained on the two in front of her, her voice sounding happy at the prospect of seeing the two fighting.

"And that's Kirihara Takeaki, he was the last year's Kantou Secondary Level Division Fencing Champion."

"You seem well informed."

Not really bothering to take anything from her out-of-the-blue entrance, Tatsuya decided to make a remark on her knowledge.

"You think so?"

Erika's reply was a slightly playful one as she kept her eyes on the two in front of her who were currently staring each other down.

Tatsuya didn't see it fit to pry further at that and instead turned his attention to the duel that was just starting to take place in front of him.

Small flurries of brief blurs coming in at the sound of the two wooden swords clashing against each other. High and low, from side to side. The strikes were coming in at each and every angle from both sides. The girl, Mibu Sayaka, looked to be on the defensive for the most of it but her level compared to the male, Kirihara Takeaki, was higher. Her switch from defending to attacking was much faster and the transition seemed somewhat seamless in nature. But this was in regards to the lack of magic, it would be natural for the non-magic user to win at this level in a non-magic fight.

Then it all came down to a single strike, a silent agreement between the two of them. A couple of seconds passed as they stayed still to ready their strikes before moving to make them connect.

"Mibu-senpai's strike settles the match. Kirihara-senpai's hit is too shallow."

And that result of course comes at a mixed reaction. Happiness from the Kendo club who won and disgruntled mumbles from the lackeys of the Fencing Club who lost despite being the 'superior blooms'.

"Accept your defeat. If it was a real sword, you wouldn't be able to use that right arm anymore."

At that declaration Tatsuya let out a short sigh which made both Miyuki and Erika look at him seeing that his head had dropped slightly in disappointment. To people of the same level or social status, that was something fine to say but between a 'Bloom' and a 'Weed', that was basically a taunt saying they are nothing without their magic. In this position at least.

"Hahahaha. A Real Sword? You wouldn't be able to put a scratch on my body. So how about it Mibu, do you want to have a match with real swords?"

Kirihara replied to the 'taunt' with a small distortion in his tone which was otherwise filled with irritation.

He then proceeded quickly to rolling up his sleeve showing his CAD and tapping the index finger of his right finger onto it and starting up the desired magic sequence.

"If that's the case, then let's have a match with real swords!"

As the magic sequence for what flashed in front of Tatsuya's eyes ran through, Kirihara lifted his wooden sword up into the air as the sequence disappeared from around the CAD on his left forearm to the tip of the wooden blade and the filling the sword giving it a shimmering light which released small particles of magic that let off a nauseating, vibrating sound which echoed through the gymnasium.

Kirihara then rushed forward towards Mibu and slashed forwards at her, only able to cut through the outer-fabric of her training gear due to her jumping back to evade and Tatsuya placing a hand on Miyuki's shoulder so she couldn't cast whatever magic she was going to to restrain Kirihara. When Miyuki looked up at Tatsuya, he only wiggled his right index finger playfully.

"That's not a spell that you want to deal with by freezing the person Miyuki. Especially if he is on the move, you surely don't want him to accidentally cut his own foot off."

Tatsuya said it in a neutral tone, downplaying the playful wiggle of his finger.

The magic that Kirihara casted was Sonic Blade, a close range oscillation-type combat spell. If he was to let go of the sword then the magic would start to disappear but not before it could drop to the floor which was what Tatsuya was getting at.

Then there was the harsh sound that was emitted from the magic, a sound which replicated a chalkboard being scraped against. It was a brutal sound for anyone who wasn't used to it or trained against it and so most of the onlookers where now hunched over slightly with contorted expressions and their hands placed over their ears.

"How about it, Mibu? This is a 'Real Sword' and this-"

Kirihara then proceeded to raise his hand holding the blade up into the air readying his next strike towards the now cowering Mibu who was still trying to hold a defensive front.

"-Is the difference between Fencing and Kendo."

"Stop! It's too dangerous!"

But it was too late, Erika's shout was too late. Tatsuya had already disappeared.

Appearing in between Kirihara and Mibu in the shape of a blur, Tatsuya's eyes which had turned impossibly cold stared up at Kirihara who was in the process of bringing the sword down towards both Mibu and now Tatsuya too. Tatsuya's eyes then hardened as his rose his own hand up into the air taking a firm but overpowering grip onto the wrist that was holding onto the sword. Furthering his grip on Kirihara's wrist, Tatsuya forcefully twisted it away to the right eliciting a pained scream from Kirihara in response who immediately let go of the sword dropping it to the ground.

Then in a blink of an eye, the sword proceeded to drop to the floor and once the dull thud resounded Tatsuya moved to further apprehend Kirihara by shifting his position to behind Kirihara, keeping a hold on his wrist the whole time. Twisting round to break Kirihara's own stance, Tatsuya sweeped his legs from under him and then pushed down at the top of Kirihara's back following him down and thus pinning him to the floor.

With the harsh sound now gone, the gymnasium was in a bleak silence just looking at Tatsuya. Miyuki, was just off to the side, reporting what was happening.

"...Yotsuba Tatsuya...How?"

"What just happened?"

Questions of confusion rose up into the air from the onlookers who watched the blur of Tatsuya apprehend Kirihara who didn't show to take any both of the lethal B-rank spell that was cast and to do it solely physically stumped them all.

"Miyuki, can you request a stretcher. I think he popped something on the way down."

Tatsuya said it with a cold tone towards Miyuki as he stood up from Kirihara's body which stayed on the ground slightly limp. His tone cold to the fact that something popped from the small tussle itself.

"Haii Onii-sama."

"What?! Why is Kirihara getting apprehended?!"

Without bothering to turn around, Tatsuya kept his eyes on the prone body in front of him to reply.

"For the improper use of magic, he will be taken in."

"Why the hell is it only Kirihara! The Kendo club's Mibu is also at fault."

This irate tone only annoyed Tatsuya to the point were he didn't want to take anymore, especially because they interrupted his coffee break and so Tatsuya turned around. His eyes narrowed.

"Like I just told you. Improper use of magic."

"The hell?! Speaking to us like that?! Yotsuba or not, we are your senpai."

"I will speak to you however I wish 'Senpai'. Only trash would support trash."

From the moment the first 'trash' was uttered the member of the Fencing club that Tatsuya spoke to, in a condescending tone, broke forwards towards Tatsuya. If it was anyone else, then they'd apprehend this lackey safely but this was Tatsuya, a slightly pissed off Tatsuya and someone coming after him to hit him for relatively no reason was not a good thing.

Betraying the speed of a human, Tatsuya's right hand went into his jacket and pulled out his custom silver pistol CAD and pointed it straight at the man who was coming at him. And Tatsuya deemed this time fitting to further strike the fear of a demon into him so he cast his own exclusive family magic, Nightmare Frost.

The magic sequence span it's cycle in a blink of an eye at the muzzle of the pistol and cast itself onto the incoming opponent. His body froze up, his skin lightened as it would from a dropping of temperature although that wasn't currently dropping, his body then contorted in mental pain as he dropped down to his knees screaming as his own worst nightmare started to play over in his mind. The feral screams of a teenage male at his mind's weakest level.

That was Tatsuya's Nightmare Frost. An Informational Manipulative Outer-systematic magic that would clamp down on everything in the designated person's mind and forcefully plays the worst nightmare possible for them, mentally crippling them briefly while making it look like their body was being enraptured by frostbite.

Everyone else just looked on astonished and frightened as Tatsuya stared down at the boy with a cold look in his eyes.

"Miyuki … Request another stretcher."

And finished~

I wanna apologize for the lateness of this chapter.
I've been horrendously busy, it's kinda annoying really.
Couldn't update the last week of last month as i was away from my pc.
Got back late in the week, last week and couldn't write this chapter as i had other things to do before having more work to do.
Then my body just didn't want to do anything Monday and Tuesday.

That's that though and i got the chapter done now so i apologize for making you guys wait and not putting out a notice.
So i decided to show off one of the new spells i had made to go with the new Tatsuya.
Nightmare Frost is basically Tatsuya's version of Miyuki's Cocytus, for those who know.

Of course, not even Tatsuya can get out of this without hearing of some repercussions.
Though ruthless Tatsuya? Mmm Tatsuya-sama~~

Ciao!
