Tokyo: My Superpower Refreshes Every Week-Chapter 788 - 786: The Class President’s Little Schemes

In the blink of an eye, the four classes in the morning passed.

During lunch break, the autumn sunlight lacked warmth, carrying a few hints of desolation.

The osmanthus tree in the courtyard no longer smelled of osmanthus flowers.

Instead of entering the manga club with Little Sayuri and Makoto, Phoenix Academy Maggie lingered intentionally at the entrance of the club building, calculating the time.

Only after confirming that Aozawa had left, did she choose to go to the Guzheng Club and raise her hand to knock on the door.

"Coming~"

Footsteps could be heard inside, and the door opened; it wasn't Natsuka Yanagimachi who spoke and opened the door but Hojo Shouko.

Her black short hair hid her ears, and her almond-shaped eyes were large and bright.

The shape of the school uniform top resembled a full moon, revealing the visibility of autumn pineapples, making one instantly aware of maturity.

"Phoenix Academy's Senior?"

Hojo Shouko's voice sounded a bit surprised.

The girl standing in the hallway had her back straight, with her long blonde hair tied into a single ponytail at the back. She glanced at her with her big eyes and asked, "Do you have a moment? I'd like to talk to you."

"Hmm."

Hojo Shouko nodded, unsure of what the suddenly visiting senior wanted, yet she instinctively agreed.

Natsuka Yanagimachi, inside, felt her heart tighten with worry about Shouko's gentle personality being bullied. She said, "Um, can I follow along?"

Natsuka Yanagimachi mustered up the courage to speak.

Phoenix Academy Maggie gave her a glance, making Natsuka Yanagimachi so nervous she swallowed hard, "Don't worry, I'm not a fierce beast that eats people, I'm just here to chat with her."

"Oh."

Natsuka Yanagimachi nodded, inwardly thinking that she was scarier than a fierce beast.

But she dared not say this in front of Phoenix Academy Maggie, she could only mutter it behind her back.

"Could you step out for a moment?"

Phoenix Academy Maggie didn't intend to take Hojo Shouko too far, just wanted Natsuka Yanagimachi to step out.

Upon hearing this, she quickly stood up and walked outside, feeling relieved, as the Guzheng Club was their territory after all.

The willingness to talk here indicated it wasn't an intent to cause trouble.

But what topics could there be between them?

Natsuka Yanagimachi was curious, as the door closed, she placed her ear against the door, trying to see if she could hear the conversation inside.

Phoenix Academy Maggie walked to a window-side position, glanced at the two lunchboxes on the table, and said, "Thanks to you, the world eliminates industrial pollution, Venice's waterways are crystal clear without any foul smell.

They have become as beautiful as portrayed in anime, becoming the true water city.

The Seine River and Thames River all owe their pristine beauty to you."

"It was all the wishes of Summer Flower, Aozawa-senpai, Brother, I just helped fulfill them."

Hojo Shouko appeared very modest, she didn't claim the credit for herself, if asked to consider, she might not have come up with such wishes.

Phoenix Academy Maggie stared at her cheek, pale as processed milk, looking very smooth, "Among them, is Aozawa's wish the primary one?"

"Why is Phoenix Academy's Senior asking this?"

Hojo Shouko's counter-question caused Phoenix Academy Maggie to fall into silence.

She couldn't figure out what this girl was thinking.

If she could straightforwardly express her inner attitude like Arakawa Reina, she could understand, but this one hid too deep, too subtly, like a gentle breeze, until it touched the cheek, it was unclear whether that breeze truly existed.

The air fell silent.

Hojo Shouko was used to such silence, saying nothing.

Phoenix Academy Maggie thought for a moment, and asked, "Hojo, have you never wanted to pursue anything actively?"

Hojo Shouko seriously recalled her past, from childhood to present, it seemed she indeed hadn't pursued anything, so she nodded, "Hmm, Phoenix Academy's Senior, did you find me just to ask this?"

Phoenix Academy Maggie opened her mouth, then swallowed back what she wanted to say. She realized that those evasive words were unsuitable for the girl before her, so she directly said, "I just can't understand. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Why, after obtaining the Holy Grail, you didn't choose to wish for yourself, but wanted to give your wish to others?"

Hojo Shouko didn't perfunctorily answer Phoenix Academy Maggie, realizing that if she could make her inquiry, it was something she cared about.

She pondered briefly and answered, "My wish is that everyone can be happy."

"I see."

Phoenix Academy Maggie's expression became somewhat complex.

She suddenly felt that the beautiful fantasy in her mind and reality were increasingly disconnected.

The realization that it is impossible to solely possess Aozawa became increasingly clear.

How was she supposed to overcome these competitive rivals?

She thought that Morimoto Chiyoda, Ayatsuki Ayaka, Arakawa Reina were already beyond conventional imagining.

But Hojo Shouko was more outrageous.

Even as pure as Ayatsuki Ayaka's love was, it required Aozawa's response.

Hojo Shouko was different, she just wanted Aozawa to be happy, not to ask for any return.

How could one compete with that?!

Phoenix Academy Maggie just thinking about it, felt the darkness looming in front.

She was willing to confront Morimoto Chiyoda and Arakawa Reina, knowing that they regarded her as a rival, wanting to compete.

Phoenix Academy Maggie was never afraid to compete, she feared not competing.

Ayatsuki Ayaka didn't compete, Hojo Shouko competed even less.

"Phoenix Academy's Senior, what's the matter with you?"

Hojo Shouko asked with concern.

Phoenix Academy Maggie came back to her senses, shook her head, and said, "Nothing, you."

After a pause, Phoenix Academy Maggie still didn't say anything. She couldn't encourage Hojo Shouko to bravely pursue love.

Nor did she think that just a few words could spark Hojo Shouko's desire to fight.

"I have to go now, goodbye."

"Hmm."

Hojo Shouko watched Phoenix Academy Maggie leave, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes. She couldn't understand why Phoenix Academy's Senior came to ask such a question; was it really a matter worth asking in person?

She felt like she was just doing something very ordinary.

Natsuka Yanagimachi returned to the club activity room, her face full of curiosity, saying, "What did Phoenix Academy's Senior say to you?"

"Didn't say much, just asked why I made such a wish."

Hojo Shouko answered her friend's question truthfully.

Natsuka Yanagimachi touched her chin, using her genius-like brain. After thinking for a moment, she suddenly said, "I get it. She must be shocked by your selflessness.

Oh, speaking of which, if we make such wishes, countries around the world should at least award us the title of Eco-Saint.

At worst, we should be Guinness World Environmental Record number one!"

To Natsuka Yanagimachi's sudden, seemingly out-of-nowhere thought, Hojo Shouko shook her head, only able to suppress her doubts deep within.

...

At the same time, behind the school building, most of the leaves on the surrounding trees had fallen, revealing bald branches.

Sunlight was shining on Aozawa, suspended in mid-air.

If you looked closely, you could see barely visible threads bound to him, pulling his limbs towards his back and tying him up.

"Mr. Aozawa, this is the Noble Phantasm I acquired, Thousand Transformations·Crossing Tail."

Arakawa Reina kneeled on the lawn, her school uniform collar open, revealing snow-white skin brighter than the sunlight.

Her black curly hair fell over her shoulders. She wasn't wearing glasses to disguise her appearance; excitement shimmered in her eyes as she asked, "What do you think?"

"Hmm, not bad."

Aozawa could only express this sentiment.

He had given Arakawa Reina this Noble Phantasm, thinking her mindset would be suitable for such a transformative and secretive item. However, he hadn't expected Arakawa Reina to use threads capable of cutting steel to tie him up in a tortoise shell bondage.

Thankfully, he'd created the Noble Phantasm to switch between indestructible and incredibly soft, allowing such a feat.

Arakawa Reina's pale cheeks showed a faint blush, and she smiled without showing her teeth, saying, "I also think this Noble Phantasm suits me perfectly.

Mr. Aozawa, have you awakened your Noble Phantasm yet?"

"Not yet."

Aozawa shook his head, planning to bestow a Noble Phantasm on himself tomorrow night.

According to his batch distribution, assigning eleven each day, he was now on the fourth batch of distributing forty-four Noble Phantasms to four rounds of trialists, with Emily's making forty-five.

Only three remained for distribution tomorrow.

Arakawa Reina watched Aozawa suspended in mid-air, seemingly under her control, and felt a gentle excitement she couldn't suppress, whispering, "It's okay, even if Mr. Aozawa doesn't have a Noble Phantasm, you have me, we're by your side."

Her index finger slightly moved.

The silver ring adorning it glimmered coldly, and a nearly transparent thread, whether intentionally or unintentionally, brushed lightly across below him.

Causing Aozawa's body to tremble.

Arakawa Reina seemed to realize and quickly said, "Sorry, Mr. Aozawa, I didn't mean to."

The thread instantly retracted, letting Aozawa fall to the ground.

Arakawa Reina's eyes showed concern, "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine, just a bit jolted."

Aozawa dusted off his body.

Though he usually liked being proactive, occasionally finding himself in a passive position wasn't bad.

"That's good."

Arakawa Reina gently patted her chest, feeling a tinge of joy over her bold actions.

Her control over the threads was skillful, like her fingers, equating to boldly using her fingers just now...

Arakawa Reina thought briefly about such a scene and felt water flooding a mountain.

She secretly cursed herself for lack of shame but was immersed in the twisted pleasure.

She squared her face and asked, "Mr. Aozawa, do you have any plans for the day after tomorrow?"

"I'm going out with Iroha tomorrow afternoon; I have no plans for the day after tomorrow. Do you have something in mind?"

"Oh, actually, I want to buy a new set of furniture and don't know how to choose. Could you help me pick it out the day after tomorrow?"

Arakawa Reina casually found a reason, hoping to achieve a full day of wandering as a date with Aozawa.

Aozawa nodded and said, "Sure, no problem. Where should we meet the day after tomorrow?"

"At Shinjuku Station A Exit."

Arakawa Reina revealed the meeting spot, her excitement growing. She had to return home and rehearse the events of their meeting.

She even picked the location, so as long as her acting was convincing, she could further deepen their paper-thin relationship.

"Let's meet at eight in the morning."

"No problem."

Aozawa agreed readily.
