Everyone in Sakuya’s office was thinking about what kind of battle they would face against the Rebels, especially after Tsukasa had reminded them that the Rebels were going to come.

Sakuya was thinking about the strategy or what kind of preparation they needed to do since, unlike in the original story, when she was attacked unprepared, this time, she was prepared, and hopefully, even if there were victims, the number wasn’t much.

Sakuya might be cold and would do anything to achieve her goal, but it didn’t mean she was heartless.

They were in the middle of deep thought, but Tsukasa suddenly told them he could destroy them easily as if he told them he was going to buy ice cream in the convenience store.

“But before that, where are they?” Lilith asked.

Tsukasa only pointed his finger toward the sky.

“The roof?!”

“No, the sky.” Tsukasa was speechless and said, “They’re doing a HALO.”

“HALO?”

High-altitude, low-opening, or military free fall.

It is a method of delivering military personnel, military equipment, and other military supplies from a transport aircraft at a high altitude via free-fall parachute insertion.

With his sense of smell, Tsukasa could tell that they were at an altitude of 10,000 meters in the sky.

However, Tsukasa must admit his sense of smell had become stronger after he became an Exceed, and he knew nothing would be able to escape as long as he wanted to.

Tsukasa somehow thought it might be possible to develop his sense of smell even more since he realized how buggy his sense of smell was.

However, what he needed to do right now was to face the problem in front of them.

Still, everyone was speechless when they heard the Rebels were on the airplane 10,000 meters in the sky.

While the Exceed was powerful, almost all of their weapons were cold weapons.

The shape of their Blazes didn’t allow them to attack someone or something, which was 10,000 meters from a distance.

It was also the reason why Tsukasa told them they would be doomed when a nuclear bomb exploded in their place.

Tsukasa wasn’t sure how strong the Absolute Duo was, the pinnacle of the power of the soul. However, whether it was powerful or not, it was quite dubious whether one would gain power that matched the nuclear weapon.

However, even if Tsukasa didn’t reach the Absolute Duo, he had created a technique that matched the power of a nuclear bomb but without radiation.

Still, Tsukasa wouldn’t say it since he knew if he told someone, it would cause many troubles, and he didn’t like trouble.

His intention to come to this world was just to become stronger.

As for the fights he had in this world, while it was troublesome, Tsukasa thought it was one part of his training.

“They’re 10,000 meters above in the sky! How can you defeat them?” Sara asked.

“With this.”

Tsukasa summoned his Blaze and transformed it into the shape of a huge box.

It had a length of three meters and a diameter of 160 mm.

Of course, Sakuya and Lilith were familiar with this thing.

“Iron Dome?!”

Iron Dome is a mobile all-weather air defense system.

In other words, it was a surface-to-air missile—a missile designed to be launched from the ground to destroy aircraft or other missiles.

Tsukasa shaped his Blaze into the Iron Dome to destroy the Rebels’ aircraft that was about to approach.

Still, even if this Iron Dome was humongous, with how spacious this room was, there was still a lee-way.

Sometimes, Tsukasa had to admit the rich people’s way was quite different.

However, everyone was also speechless at him, especially when they could see thick, long, and hard missiles suddenly appearing before them.

It took them a while to calm down.

However, Sakuya calmly asked, “If they land, can you handle them?”

“I can.”

Even though the group of soldiers from the Rebels landed on this island, Tsukasa believed he could handle all of them, but of course, many of the students from the Kouryou Academy might be hurt.

“Then, let them land. It is also a good experience for the students,” Sakuya said calmly.

“Is that so?”

Tsukasa nodded and released the Iron Dome on his side. He felt Sakuya’s words were reasonable. While he wasn’t sure whether those soldiers might kill the students on this island, he believed in the power of the Exceed. They would be okay as long as they weren’t hit on their heads since the recovery of the Exceed wasn’t something that couldn’t be underestimated.

It had broken the human logic.

It was also the reason why this operation, worth hundreds of millions of dollars, was worth it.

Still, Tsukasa must admit the attack was a good chance for all the new students, considering they were just normal teenagers with just experience in martial arts.

This battle would be their first experience, fighting against someone with a firearm and experienced soldiers.

As for what had happened in the department store, it couldn’t be counted since all of them were defeated by him.

Tsukasa walked toward the window, watching a group of students still gathered in the yard talking to each other while having dinner together, feeling clueless about what would happen.

Tsukasa knew it was cruel, but well, without this attack, they might grow slower and might die in the future.

“You’re not going to say anything about my education?” Sakuya suddenly asked.

“What do you want me to say? Are my words useful to persuade you to put everyone in a safe place?” Tsukasa asked.

“No.”

“So, what’s the point? I won’t say this education is good, and even I can understand it is cruel, but at the same time, it isn’t bad either. You’re the leader. You can’t put your feelings into every decision. I understand that, so you don’t need to worry, and I’ll support you,” Tsukasa said calmly with a gentle smile.

“Marry me,” Sakuya said.

“…” Everyone.

“Tsukasa is going to marry me!” Lilith quickly said.

“Who said that? He never agreed to your proposal, to begin with,” Sakuya said.

“But if you keep saying that, he’ll enter the jail!”

“…” Tsukasa let out a sigh as he looked toward the sky, watching a group of soldiers that came down with the parachute, and he knew they were about to attack everyone, but then he noticed Rito, who slowly crept toward him and hugged him when Lilith and Sakuya were fighting to each other.

“Hehehe…” Rito laughed as her head was patted.

Tsukasa wasn’t sure whether it was time for Rito to do something stupid like this, but he knew this woman would stop soon since the group of soldiers in battle armor landed one after another, shooting their rifles toward the clueless students.

*Bang!* *Bang!* *Bang!*

But, of course, those students fought back and showed why Exceed was known as an existence that broke the human boundary.

When the group of soldiers jumped toward the island one after another, there was a young man with blonde hair that reached his shoulder and stood there with an expression as if he had controlled everything.

If Tsukasa saw him, he would forget who he was, but this young man was the man that was beaten by Tsukasa mercilessly in the department store when he said his arrogant introduction.

“Okay, let’s start. We, the God-Slaying Corps, Libers, and the Exceed. Judge and be judged… “Selection.”

As those words left, the young man wore his helmet, showing a precaution after what had happened in his previous fight, before jumping into the island, ready for his revenge.
