Apparently I will Join Blanche Subjugation 'Battle'

Blanche base- more specifically, Japanese Branch, Blanche and it leader- Tsukasa Hajime is in quite distance with First High School. The organization's hideout is on abandoned factory in the hills outside of city proper.

Juumonji-senpai provide the mean of transportation, but it still take time to reach the base- around 30 minutes. In that time we discuss the strategy.

The first thing Juumonji-senpai decide is to give the leadership to Tatsuya..... Juumonji-senpai... Whatever the reasoning is- I think giving the leadership to the first year when our destination is fighting with terrorist with the risk of death is anything but irresponsible.... even if the said student is the one that initiate this operation.

Well- set that aside. Tatsuya plan is- in conclusion- an annihilation battle with two force from front and back to prevent the chance for the enemy to escape. Leo and Erica is tasked to watch outside and in case the enemy escape.

I'm also but I decline. I already come here, there is no way I want a boring job like guarding the entrance. Of course I insisting to accompany Tatsuya and Miyuki.<-- now here.

__________________________________________________________________________________________

"Welcome! Nice to meet you, Shiba Tatsuya-kun!

As soon as we went inside, the leader of Blanche Japanese branch- Tsukasa Hajime greet us cheerily.

"And this two hime... Ah, I remember You are this year representative- Megumi-kun. Then, the other one is your little sister- Miyuki-kun.

"You must be the branch commander of Blanche."

Tatsuya coldly reply to Tsukasa Hajime who had his arms spread out in an exaggerated welcoming motion.

"Oh, forgive my rudeness. Just as you said, I am the commander of Blanche's Japanese branch, Tsukasa Hajime."

"Is that so?"

Although he didn't verbalize it, his attitude was enough to express his intent. Tatsuya removed the silver CAD from its holster.

I'm excited~ I'm about to see Decomposition in action~

"Hm, a CAD. I thought you would bring firearms at least. That being said, you're a bold one. You came forward without any heed to nearby cover. No matter what kind of Magician you are, you can still be killed by bullet wounds!"

"I am no Magician."

Tatsuya's reaction was completely unlike someone under the threat of a sniper, causing the Blanche commander to stare at him with widened eyes.

It's cool but I become wondering.. are you really trying to hide the fact that you are not normal? Tatsuya-kun.

"Oh, so that's how it is. You're still a student. I forgot that detail after seeing you charge in like that."

Right? I try to keep silent but finally someone put tsukomi on that....

"At any rate, I advise you to surrender. All of you, throw down your weapons and place your hands on your heads."

No-no-no... ah~ I forgot that Tatsuya is communication disorder- no common sense disorder? I smile wryly.

'are you not gonna say(tsukomi) something to your brother?' when I stare at Miyuki with such meaning, Miyuki already in zealot mode- worshiping her Onii-sama..... This sibling is already no good...

The dialogue between Tatsuya and Blanche leader keep going while ignoring Miyuki and me. And Hajime tsukasa invite Tatsuya to join Blanche, but of course Tatsuya refuse.

"Yeah... Then, let's do this."

Is he going to use his hypnotic magic?

"Shiba Tatsuya, become one of our companions!"

Tsukasa Hajime abandoned any pretense of hiding the wildness about him.

"Ha ha ha ha ha, and now you are one of us! The first thing you shall do, is to personally execute the little sister that came along with you! To die at the hands of your beloved Onii-sama is probably your fondest wish!"

This wasn't acting any more. He had already become accustomed to giving out orders.

"...It's about time to stop with the monkey antics. Anyone who even sees you would be embarrassed on your behalf. See... Megumi is laughing so hard."

"No... because I never though I will see third rate Villainous line like in some cheap drama... pfft... ugh sorry. Ahem.. well- oh about that magic--Consciousness Interference Type Non-Systemic Magic, Evil Eye--is it? a technique that White Russia developed after extensive research."

"Yes... Mibu-senpai's memory was probably rewritten in the same way."

"Onii-sama, if that's the case..."

At his little sister's wide-eyed question, Tatsuya nodded without any expression on his face.

"The errors in Mibu-senpai's memory were too extreme for it to be entirely natural. If this was brought about by something she had misheard, it is true that this result may occur. However, this sort of misunderstanding should disappear and cool down in time."

"...You, despicable scoundrel."

"Oh... Miyuki can be angry for other than Tatsuya matter.. it's bit unexpected."

"Megumi... what did you see me as?"

"Disappointing Bishoujo with severe Brocon sickness?"

"...."

'Is it wrong?' innocently I act clueless in answer of Miyuki stare.

"Fire, damn you all, fire!"

Hajime Tsukasa command to open fire but, Tatsuya already disassembling-destroying all the firearm.

"What the hell is this?"

—Not a single bullet was fired.

With a clatter, the various pistols, rifles and semi-automatics collapsed into pieces.

"Heeh~ it's amazing... re-writing the base information of an object... and disassembling them.."

It seems Tatsuya heard my mumbling as he sent wary gaze to me.

"It that suppose to be secret? well... ops?"

In the midst of the chaos, Tsukasa Hajime flee. Not a single one of his companions followed him. But it seems Tatsuya more interest to interrogating me... the stare painful.

"Onii-sama, please pursue immediately. I will handle this."

Look, your beloved sister is calling you.

"Understood. Megumi, let's go."

No I don't want to.

"Ah-haha... I think I better stay here helping Miyuki."

"I believe Miyuki can handle this with easy."

No-no-no.. don't just blushing there sister-chan... help...

"Sight..... alright."

__________________________________________________________________________________________

Tatsuya suddenly stop in front of the door to the room where the rest of blanche member and also Tsukasa hajime is.

"Megumi, Who are you?"

".... Can we finish Blanche matter first. We can talk later if you have any question to me."

"...Alright."

"Sight...."

After that, Tatsuya using 'Elemental sight' to probe inside the room and trigger his CAD to destroy all the enemy weapon.

"Looking again,Tatsuya magic really amazing. Rewriting or erase the Information Body, then directly disassemble the design at your leisure. Then it mean you can access the information dimension... ah- I also can- That why a was able to see the trick behind your magic."

"...hmm."

The terrorist where easily defeated after that because their trump card-Antinite- where not working to us.

It really easy that make me wandering is Blanche really international level terrorist? I mean I think in the previous trouble where Shiba-sibling is also involved, about the fire-pyrokinesis user- the main reason Saegusa and watanabe senpai have interest in shiba sibling- they can hire superpower user, and it quite big deal.

But, the head of Blanche japanese branch is this disappointingly weak.

__________________________________________________________________________________________

Currently I and Tatsuya alone in some cafe, there some cake and drink to enjoy and the cafe also have nice air and view. But this is not a date- this is not a date, I will repeat again because it important- this is not date but an interrogation.

With such tense atmosphere- I can't be at ease and enjoy my cake~

"...Uum don't stare too much.. Tatsuya-kun... that..? anything you want to ask?"

While fidgeting, I gather my courage- say.

"No, I just though- I can only see you as beautiful girl."

".....Thank you, but please don't use such ambiguous wording. I know what you want to say but.. most will perceive it as flirting."

Ugh... even if I know it- my cheek is still become bit red by Tatsuya wording. What a scary thing- puberty is.

"Sigh.... If you want to ask me to keep your magic secret, you don't have to worry. I don't plan to share this information to anyone."

"Is that so? But I don't really believe you, Megumi. Who are you? Megumi. You are too knowledgeable and mysterious."

"Who I'm huh.... well if it to be described- I'm an anomaly born in mundane family as you already know. In some miracle- I happen to possess tremendous amount of psion and talent that can even be called a genius. That why...well in all considered- I just normal girl?"

"..."

'Believe me' I appeal so with my upturned eye.

"Sigh... how about this. I will tell you some of my secret to keep. So I have reason to not tell your secret. This the limit for what I can do to proof my seriousness."

"....Alright."

"Then first I will tell you about my ability. I born with innate ability- Telekinesis, for I can freely manipulating data(world) if it about force(pull and push). I'm amazing right?"

While manipulating my tea, and shaping it to various form to show my ability- I telling Tatsuya about my telekinesis.

"Well- it's not as good as your ability though~ You previously can freely disassembling the enemy gun by disassembling the information body of an object. If my guess is right- the true nature of your magic is decomposition, looking at how you disassemble magic work. Am I right?"

"....."

While saying that- I look straight to Tatsuya--

"And depend on how you decompose it... You can directly convert matter to energy freely at your will. For example... Okinawa naval battle, Ooguro Ryuuya-kun."

"..."

--dropping such bomb statement.

No well- I become carried away because this tense atmosphere and saying such a thing. This old habit of mine is really troubling..

"And that is my second secret."

"I see..... but Megumi, Hacking is a crime."

"As long as you don't tell anyone, I will never get caught. I believe in my ability."

"Well- looking at you foolishly telling me that. I believe that you are not spy at last."

"Ugh... I don't plan to say that actually. It just habit of mine to easily get affected by the air and become carried away... Ah- speaking of which- I have to tell you something about the matter with Honoka."

"Honoka? I don't think there any problem related to Honoka."

"There is! You make Honoka fall in love with you!"

Tatsuya become dumbfounded listening to what I said.

"...while I think it's indeed quite a problem, I don't see a reason as to why you make complain to me."

"That right. It's normal for teenager at around our age start to have special feeling for opposite sex because of puberty. But Honoka is special you see... I will not too worry if it was Shizuku but Honoka is different."

I pause and sip my tea before continue talking.

"Did Tatsuya know about 'Elements' families?"

"If not wrong- Elements is the name given to the Magicians who were the first practitioners of Magic in Japan, it's system before the establishment of the Numbers."

"That right. The Elements have innately inherited gifts separate from the magic they had or were given. Since the begging of research on magic, fear and superstition against magic was rampant. Due in part because of this, those who were developed, the Elements were labeled as 'Sorcerers' and 'Witches'. They took it upon themselves, taking measures to show that they would not be a threat, they had the researchers incorporate into their genes compliance and absolute obedience towards their leaders-- well in simply manner, it slave contract."

I stare at Tatsuya to see his reaction-acting to- I mean it important to create serious atmosphere.

"Because of this 'Absolute Obedience' carved in their gene. Their descendant also inherited some of this characteristic. The descendants of the Elements themselves believed that their destinies were written in their genes. Although using such a thing as an excuse for accepting their reliance on others."

"You know a lot huh..."

"That doesn't matter right? When I said it this far- You know what problem I'm talking about right? because Honoka is from Mitsui(light) family."

I glare at Tatsuya because of his nonchalant response.

"Sigh... Well, what do you want? do you want me to take responsibility and marry Honoka?"

"No? I will be killed by Miyuki if I she know I ask such a thing. Just say that you already have a fiance or something. And don't use such ambiguous line to praise or say something to Honoka."

"Alright."
