6 | The Reason to Fight

If you do not understand the Major Arcana cards or Tarot cards, please go to the end of the chapter for more information. The two topics will be explained in the chapter as well.

  Two weeks after the attack in the amusement park, the Hoshinorion students haven't been communicating.

It has been told on news that Blythe and Satou managed to survive the game, but Satou had lost the ability to move his left arm. The two only survived with the help of powerful healing magic.

Chelsea was still mad at Erissa for not doing anything, but Chelsea knew well that it wasn't Erissa's fault.

Satou had arranged for the group to discuss things, but only Blythe and Chelsea showed up.

"Where's the princess? Did she say anything about not coming?" Satou asked, breaking the silence between the three.

No one responded to the question Satou had asked, and Satou sat back into his chair.

Suddenly, the door of the student council room opened slowly, and Erissa came in. She sat beside Satou.

"What did you want to discuss?" Erissa mumbled, loud enough for Satou to hear.

"Well, I wanted to discuss Guren. I also wanted to discuss our group name," Satou replied.

"A group name? What for?" Blythe asked, curiosity hitting her.

"Well, since you three have been chosen to save the world, you have to have a name instead of everyone finding out your actual identity," Satou explained.

"I see. So its like an idol group?" Erissa asked, her facing lighting up with joy. Blythe smiled at the sudden reaction, since she hadn't seen her friend in two weeks.

"Yes! Except we won't be singing," Satou replied. Erissa nodded happily.

"I have an idea for the group name," Blythe and Chelsea said in unison, glaring at each other.

"Let's hear it!" Erissa exclaimed, exciting about what was currently happening.

"I suggest—"

"Blythe Yuuki, Erissa Todou, Satori Yasaki, and Chelsea Fibel, please report to the headmaster's office. Thank you," A speaker said, interrupting Blythe's sentence.

"We better go," Satou said, rising up in his seat.

As the students headed over, they received a lot of boo's and ooo's.

They had had enough and ran over to the headmaster's office, tired of all the teasing they heard.

"Hello! Let's get right into the topic, shall we?" The headmaster asked as the students walked in. Blythe nodded and they all sat down at a couch in the office.

"So, I spoke with the Magic Government about the recent incident. The magic you guys were born with simply is not enough for the world and simply Kyoto. Two of you got severely hurt two weeks ago, and we spent large amounts of money on it. To reduce the casualties, I talked to the government about giving you four something that would help. Major Arcana Cards of the Tarot Cards stack," The headmaster explained.

Confused, Blythe stood up. "I'm not very familiar with magic, so what is the Major Arcana Cards of the Tarot Cards stack?" Blythe asked.
