"The Striker?"
"Yes."
Jin nodded and said, "I have seen how you fought my little brother last time and I have seen how powerful you were, Kasugano-kun."
Haru was looking at Jin and wondering whether this guy didn't feel angry when he beat up his little brother.
"Is that so?"
"Yes, I have heard from Principal Shimon that you're a Rank A Savior. I've had doubts before, but after seeing how you could make Gin do "dogeza" without doing anything, I can see that you're a very strong Dark Mage," Jin said.
"Dark Mage, huh?"
Haru didn't feel surprised when Jin thought of him as a Dark Mage, considering he was using a spell rather than a close-range weapon.
"What's wrong?" Jin asked in confusion.
"Nothing, but..."
"But?"
"I feel like I haven't remembered all the memories from my previous lives and once I have remembered all of them, I know that I can become even stronger..."
His tone was full of confidence and there was no doubt about his words which caused both Jin and Shizuno to be amazed since both of them knew very well how strong Haru was.
When Haru was fighting against Gin, he only said one word then Gin was defeated without being able to do anything and if he could become even stronger...
On the other hand, Jeanne was rolling her eyes, thinking that this guy's acting skill was very awesome and she thought that she might need to learn a lot from him.
"Sorry, let's return to our previous conversation," Haru said.
"Ah, yes." Jin was a bit dumbfounded, but then, he asked, "I want to invite the three of you as a member of the Striker." He looked at them and asked, "Do you know about the Striker?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHaru nodded and said, "I have heard of it, but can you explain the details of the Striker to us?" Before he entered the school, he also started to do research about this school, and of course, the Striker.
"Of course." Jin nodded and started to explain about the Striker.
In simple terms, the Striker was an elite team from Akane Academy that was led by Jin to eliminate the metaphysical that appeared in this country.
Jin also told them that the three of them would get the scholarship from the Academy Academy and they would be guaranteed employment at the White Knight Agency after they graduated. He also told them that they would receive quite a sum of money as a reward for joining the Striker.
In the past, most of the students would agree without hesitation since they didn't need to worry about money and the economy of the world was quite a mess since the metaphysical attacked various places randomly from time to time.
It was very hard to get a job so everyone who heard that they would get a stable income from both scholarship and employment of the White Knight Agency, would be more than happy to accept the invitation from the Striker.
Jin also thought that the three of them would happily accept their invitation, however...
"I am sorry, Isurugi-senpai," Haru said without hesitation.
Shizuno was a bit dumbfounded, but Jeanne didn't say anything since she believed in Haru.
"I see..." Jin nodded, but then he was dumbfounded and asked, "I am sorry?"
"To tell you the truth, both of us don't lack money and the sum of money that you will give us as a reward for joining the Striker, personally...." Haru let out a sigh and said, "It's a bit too small."
As a capitalist, Haru also understood that the rewards that had been given by the Striker weren't that much because of their status as a student, and because of that status, the school and the White Knight Agency could lower their reward.
In truth, Haru felt that the reward that was given by the Striker wasn't fair, especially when their power was bigger and their reputation was bigger than most adults on the White Knight Agency.
If Haru was the leader of the Striker, then, without doubt, he would get the sponsorship of a lot of conglomerates, magnates, industrialists, and a lot of rich people then become their bodyguards since he was sure that they could give them more money.
Jin thought that Haru was going to reject him and he also knew that compared to the employee of the White Knight Agency, the reward that was given by the Striker wasn't much or rather small, but he didn't think too much since he was a student, or rather, he didn't think that he could change it.
On the other hand, Shizuno, who heard Haru's words, was wondering which family that he came from since she could really tell that he was really rich from his bearing and habit.
"But... even if the reward that we receive isn't that much, I am interested in the opportunity to fight against the metaphysical." Haru looked at Jin and said, "So Isurugi-senpai, Jeanne, and I will join the Striker."
Jeanne nodded and said, "Yes, we will join the Striker." She knew that joining the Striker was part of the quest, so she agreed without hesitation.
"Re - Really?" Jin was surprised since he thought that he was being rejected, but then his expression became serious, and asked, "Don't you need to think about it twice? You need to know that there have been casualties before."
"Isn't that the reason why you have decided to invite me? I can heal most people with my ability," Haru said calmly.
"....."
Jin let out a sigh and bowed his head. "Thank you very much!" In truth, even if Jeanne and Shizuno didn't join the Striker, he didn't think too much, however, he needed Haru to enter the Striker no matter what since he knew that Haru had the ability to heal someone.
Jin knew that Haru's ability was very precious for his team and with Haru, he was sure that the number of casualties would be lowered or turned zero and that was what he had always hoped for.
"It's alright, when can we visit your place?"
"Let's go after school, I also want to see your power, is that alright?" Jin asked.
"Yes." Haru nodded and said, "We'll visit you after school."
"Thank you very much." Jin sighed in relief and felt grateful for Haru since Haru had accepted his invitation.
"Shizuno, how about you? Are you going to join too?" Haru asked.
"Me?" Shizuno looked at Haru and nodded. "Of course, I will join."
Jin smiled and said, "Then see you after school."
They were about to end their conversation but...
"Let me join the Striker!"
Suddenly Satsuki entered the scene and asked directly.
"Um, who are you?" Jin was confused when he saw Satsuki.
"If Haru, Jeanne, and Shizuno are joining, then I have to join, too!"
Jin shook his head and said, "I like your enthusiasm, but your ability isn't enough to enter the Striker." He only remembered that Satsuki was the girl that was defeated by his little brother. His little brother wasn't even qualified to enter the Striker so how could he let Satsuki enter the Striker?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"I..."
"I think it's too soon for you to even join the reserves. I'm sorry."
"...No way..." Satsuki was very dejected when she was rejected.
"Well then."
Waving his hand, Jin left them first since he also needed to prepare for the Striker after this.
Looking at Satsuki who was dejected and upset, Haru said, "What are you upset about? Isn't it obvious that with your strength, you will only commit suicide if you join the Striker?"
"!!!"
Satsuki didn't expect that this guy would be so blunt and cruel, telling her that she was weak. She was on the verge of crying before and at this moment, her tears were already uncontrollable, but...
Satsuki felt a warm hand on her head and a gentle voice on her ear.
"Stupid, if you're weak now, it doesn't mean that you're going to be weak in the future."
"Huh?" Satsuki was dumbfounded.
"Do you want to get stronger so you can enter the Striker?" Haru asked.
Staring at his eyes, Satsuki who was full of tears nodded without hesitation. "Yes!"
"Good answer, then come to my house later," Haru said and patted Satsuki's shoulder.
"Jeanne, let's go."
"See you later, Satsuki." Jeanne also walked out with Haru from the rooftop, leaving two girls there, but...
"Come... Come to his house?!" Satsuki was dumbfounded, but then she was blushing and flustered, then there was smoke from her head, thinking that her hand might be held, her body might be hugged, and... and she might be kissed!
Satsuki was shy and started to imagine a lot of things in her head.
"......"
Shizuno looked at Satsuki then looked at the back of Jeanne and Haru, somehow, she felt a bit worried to leave Jeanne alone with Haru since she had a feeling that this guy was...
"Haru, can I visit your house too?"
Shizuno decided to join the party.
