''Brother, you ready?'' I heard Lucas asking, while he was sitting next to me on the airplane.

I looked at him and said with determination.''We got this.''

After hearing what I said Lucas had a visible smile on his face and put his fist towards me and said. ''Let's win.''

I nodded to his words and did a fist pump with him.

We were currently on the airplane going towards Ramu, where the tournament will be held and I was sitting at the economy class with Lucas sitting next to me.

Our club advisor was sitting behind me with other students who came.

Which consisted of Liam, our third fighter, and our backup fighters.

There weren't any cheerleaders or anything like that, because even though everyone knows that Lucas is strong, he is still only one man and no one has faith in me or Liam.

So they already think that our team is doomed from start.

But oh boy they are wrong.

In my opinion, we have great chances.

Especially after I have gained some major power boost in the past 3 weeks, I improved my body to perfection and I can utilize my techniques better than ever in my current life.

I also improved my stamina, which surprisingly made my stamina rise in stat points by 5 points, which was very surprising.

Also, I increased my strength, but only with 3 stat points.

I didn't get any Quest since we had to escape from the harbor.

But it didn't matter.

Since we aren't supposed to fight any Martial Captains in the tournament, I will be fine with my new technique Iron Lance, which I have been using for it past 3 weeks and I can use it now slightly better than in my previous life!

Weakness Detection Eye is very useful while using Iron Lance and I have improved much more than I initially expected.

But I am not the only one who has improved...

It seems Lucas is very close to the peak of Martial Leader, having already his one-foot on it, but he needs just a little more push, which might happen in the tournament.

Liam on the other hand is still Low Martial Soldier as far as I can see.

Quite disappointing, but I didn't have much faith in him either.

Lucas and I are good enough to reach the top 8, but from there it will be tough fights.

and past 3 weeks only went by while training and sparring against other students and we had our questioning in the police station, but it was quite lackluster, I only said what happened in the alley and they were somewhat feeling guilty that Irkum escaped, but they didn't know that he was already dead.

I closed my eyes to get sleep before arriving at the Ramu because the first round of the tournament will start tomorrow...

...

''Wake up Ichiro.'' I heard Lucas waking me up and I opened my eyes and saw that everyone was departing from the plane.

''We arrived?'' I asked.

''Yes, let's go,'' Lucas answered and we stood up to get our backpacks.

After another half an hour wasted in the terminal, we finally managed to reach rented cars and from there we took off towards the hotel where we stayed.

I sat next to Lucas, while other fighters were kind of silent while sitting, most of them had the same thought that this trip here is waste of time.

We arrived at the hotel who was located 10 minutes from the stadium where the tournament will be held.
