In the area near a Blazer academy, the probability of theft and robbery is usually quite low, because Blazers all have special abilities. You never know if the person you're robbing is a much stronger Blazer.
What if they take you out in a second?
So even ordinary people with firearms don't dare to commit crimes casually.
But if someone does dare, it means the opponent is definitely a Blazer, and the resulting situation is far more serious than firearms.
This doesn't mean that other places aren't strong!
Skirk walked beside these personnel, but behind her, there were a few little tails following along—none other than her four disciples.
Ikki, Arisuin, Shizuku, and Stella.
Looking at the four following her, Skirk reminded them, "You don't need to follow me. This matter will be over very quickly."
"Since you can't do anything here, you might as well go back and practice for a while longer, spending more time to improve your realm."
Skirk didn't feel she was in any danger. It was like a tiger standing in the middle of a group of ordinary rabbits; the one who needed to worry was never the tiger.
On the contrary, the people around her should worry about whether she might suddenly chop their heads off!
So the concerns of Ikki and the others were completely unnecessary.
"No! How could we possibly go back?"
However, the four were very firm in their attitude.
"Master, you've been taken by these people. We couldn't possibly focus on swinging our swords if we went back!"
"Instead of waiting back there full of anxiety, it's better to wait until this is over before focusing on training."
"'If your heart is not in your cultivation, there will be no results.' That's what you taught us!"
Facing their concern, Skirk didn't respond immediately but instead gave a faint smile.
"In that case, do as you wish."
Previously, because of the system missions, both Jingliu and Skirk were very focused on improving the strength of their four disciples.
But after spending this time together, she had also witnessed the will of these four...
No abandonment, no giving up.
Concentration and hard work.
Most importantly, it was the kindness hidden deep within their hearts!
The feeling of being cared for... wasn't so bad, was it?
The moment the smile appeared on Skirk's face, the four students were stunned, even Stella and Shizuku, who were also female.
Teacher Skirk, much like Jingliu, was usually a person of a single expression: 'flat and cold,' as if she were indifferent to everything around her.
Let alone a smile, they had never even seen her with a slightly 'happy' expression.
But both Ikki and Stella had felt the real her through the edge of her blade...
That coldness was merely a disguise!
Despite her apparent indifference to everything, her guidance in swordsmanship and practical combat was exceptionally meticulous; no matter who raised a question, they would receive a response.
Sometimes it was a precise answer, and other times it was a form of guidance, leading them to find the answer themselves.
To have such a teacher, they were already very satisfied.
And now, Skirk had actually shown such a smile in front of them... this was recognition!
Even though their presence here might not necessarily help Skirk, if they were to turn back now...
Their very Sword Heart would likely shatter!

Soon, Skirk was led to the designated location by this group, but the scene before them was truly impossible to associate with the word 'imprisonment.'
Because here was an empty football field.
"Eh? Why did you bring us here?"
"Aren't we supposed to be handed over to the Self-Defense Agency?"
Looking at this extremely confusing scene, anyone would be bewildered. There was clearly nothing here, so why come to this place?
"..."
However, faced with the group's inquiries, the special personnel offered no explanation, merely casting their gaze toward Skirk, who was surrounded by them.
"No need to speak; communicating with them is already useless."
"Instead of asking them, it's better to ask the person in the middle of the field..."
Skirk had sensed something was off for a while now, she just couldn't put it into words.
But now, having arrived at this massive football field and clearly seeing that figure, Skirk was certain...
They had been intercepted!
"The person in the middle of the field?"
"Is there someone there?"
As if Skirk's words had piqued their interest, the four students all cast their gazes into the vast football field. With their superior vision as Blazers, they took in the entire field.
However, no matter how they observed, they couldn't find 'that person' Skirk spoke of, as if they had never existed.
But they were Skirk's students, and having been guided by their teacher for so long, they naturally knew Skirk couldn't be lying.
Which meant...
That person was hiding!
And their concealment technique was incredibly sophisticated!
"Who is it?"
Unease flickered in the hearts of Ikki and the others. This feeling of knowing an enemy was right before them but being unable to find them was unpleasant, until...
Clap! Clap! Clap!
Again!
The sound of clapping came from the football field, but the sound seemed to come from all directions. Now, not only could they not see the enemy, they couldn't even determine the enemy's location.
Back at Hagun Academy, Ikki Kurogane had encountered opponents who could turn invisible. At that time, he could easily grasp the opponent's thoughts and judge their hiding place.
But now, before this enemy, Ikki felt nothing at all!
In other words, if he fought this person, Ikki would die!
"As expected, the data doesn't lie."
"I almost overlooked you myself, but Big Data was able to find you. The information age really is something, isn't it?"
A young man's voice echoed from the field. Ikki and the other three immediately summoned their Devices, shielding Skirk behind them.
Even though they were the ones most afraid, they stood before their teacher without hesitation, choosing to protect her.
Such courage was not something just anyone possessed, especially when the opponent was a Desperado...
That's right, a Desperado!
In the Far East, from ancient times to the present, there have only been three Desperados.
Nango Torajiro.
Ryoma Kurogane.
Saikyō Neine.
Ryoma Kurogane is dead, Nango Torajiro is old, and Saikyō Neine is a woman; none of them matched this voice.
In other words, this was a Desperado from outside the Far East!
Ripples suddenly appeared in the space ahead, and a man abruptly appeared before everyone's eyes.
A blond man wearing sunglasses, a textbook example of someone from the White Eagle!
