Ghost School

The End of the Fight

"It looks like the real fight is just about to start, yeah"

Wush....

The wind blows in the silence.

"No matter the beginning or the end of the battle, what is certain is that my will is what will happen"

"Initially I intended to take only red heart crystals. But I'm changing my mind now"

"Izumi, let's bet our souls on a fight-"

"No!" Izumi said loudly

"God! You scared?"

Slowly Izumi came back to lower me. From the aura, formed a thick black jacket with a purple line beside the zipper. The jacket floated and by itself enveloped me. After Izumi walked up to Maeru, a semi-circular protective shape appeared covering me.

Now Izumi was already facing off against Maeru with a distance of several meters.

"I'm the one who challenges you. Maeru, let's fight with me until one of us disappears!"

Maeru grinned.

"After your special powers rise up, you're back smug feeling strong, yes"

You're the arrogant one. Both then and now"

As soon as Maeru finished saying so, Izumi quickly attacked Maeru with her good spirit aura.

"It's no use attacking me! I can easily absorb the power from any attack. And even if I get hurt, it'll be my other weapon to strike back!" Shouted Maeru

"You're wrong" Izumi muttered

Izumi extended her right hand towards Maeru, and Maeru's body suddenly floated up.

"What's this?! Though there was no aura of Izumi around me" Shouted Maeru puzzled

"It's not all around you, but my aura is in your body"

Wush...

Maeru quickly floated up and crashed into everything that was blocking him. He continued to fly to the right-left, up-down erratically.

"Lumayan. But..."

Maeru's body trembled then he was able to regain control of his body.

"Your strength is mine now!"

As soon as Maeru had just descended to the ground, Izumi without giving any gap immediately went back to attacking him.

Izumi spread the wings on her back and appeared black and white bird feathers in front of her.

After gathering, Izumi flapped her wings. Quickly all the feathers flew towards Maeru.

"How many times have I told you, there's no point in hurting me, because I can quickly regenerate"

Many of the feathers pierced, even piercing through Maeru's body. At first Maeru used to be that. However when he was about to counterattack Izumi, he could not bring out his strength.

"It... You cut off all the power flow pathways in my body" muttered Maeru

Without responding to Maeru, Izumi again prepared for the attack.

Izumi's body split into 2 parts. The original Izumi now had both blue eyes and wings both white, and for her replica the deep red-eyed and winged were all black.

After Izumi's strength rose, she could now use both types of her powers at the same time.

Once a replica of Izumi in the form of an evil spirit appears, he disappears immediately, and appears right behind Maeru.

Izumi directly thrust her hand into Maeru's chest from behind and reclaimed the red heart crystal.

After obtaining it, Izumi put it back into her chest.

As soon as Izumi returned to being the leader, her pupils instantly elongated like snakes.

"Agh! Nah! I am the leader of the evil spirits!" Shouted Maeru did not accept and groaned Izumi

"Hey, do you have the right to speak now, huh?!" Ask Izumi the version of the evil spirit and stare at Sharp Maeru while dodging his attacks

"Bas---"

Buk!!

Izumi immediately punched Maeru firmly until he fell down.

"Basic, what? I can't hear" Izumi asked

"You--"

Buk up!

Izumi kicked Maeru's head until she bounced.

Izumi again walked up to Maeru and stepped on the chest of his former stab.

"What are you talking about? I can't hear it clearly" Izumi asked

"Egh.." Yeah...."

"I said speak clearly!! You don't understand human language, do you?!" Izumi shouted and continued to stomp on Maeru's chest, and kicked him in various other places.

"Ah~ True too. You are neither human nor spirit now. You are a disgusting and ugly monster!"

But as soon as the rope touched Izumi, it was instantly destroyed and did not form a new branch.

The evil spirit's version of Izumi continued to injure Maeru bit by bit, just like he had when he had loved Yurin's body before.

Every time Izumi injured Maeru and made the ropes from Maeru's body come out and attack Izumi, the rope was immediately destroyed and did not appear again.

And since the power of the Izumi version of the evil spirit was poisonous, so when Maeru absorbed the power of Izumi, it made his condition even worse.

Maeru started dying made Izumi.

"It looks like it's been enough to torment him up to here. Now I'll finish."

Izumi's version of the good spirit walked up to her version of the evil spirit, and they re-integrated into 1 body.

As before, Izumi's wings were back in black-and-white, and her eyes were red-and-blue. Only, now the pupils of Izumi's left eye elongated because he returned to become the leader of the evil spirit and on his left head appeared a red horn.

"Thank you for coming and making me awaken my power. Now you must disappear from this world"

Izumi stretched out her hand along with her two wings stretched wide. From the front of Izumi's hand appeared two red and blue colored auras, and around his wings sprung bird feathers that were ready to attack.

"Goodbye. Hope you're going to be more tormented in the future"

Wush....

Izumi flapped her wings. All the feathers of the bird and its aura instantly hit Maeru.

Maeru simply vanished without a trace.

Izumi turned back to look at me, then walked over as her wings and horns slowly disappeared. His eyes also returned to normal, but remained red-blue in color.

The protector that covered me disappeared and Izumi went back to check on my body.

"You're really okay, right?" Ask

"I'm doing fine. Rather than that, you should be worried about yourself"

Izumi.

"sorry. You're getting hurt because of me"

"It was Maeru's fault. Don't feel guilty about it"

"Yet yesterday too.... Because I'm..." Izumi's mutter

"Well, how long are you gonna keep bringing up yesterday's problems?" Much

I stretched out my hand and gently stroked Izumi's head.

"You've kept your promise, protected me. So don't feel overwhelmed by all these problems"

Izumi was silent while lowering her head.

"There's something I want to tell you. This is the thing I wanted to say yesterday, but I just dare to say it now" Izumi muttered

"What?" Much

"Don't-don't...." I was surprised

"This has to do with yesterday's new teacher, Maeru, and the photo you found in the school's previous warehouse"

"I suspected! The moment Izumi meant finally arrived" I thought

I felt like I was pounding with excitement, but I immediately gasped.

"That, Izumi. If you still have trouble saying it, you don't have to force it. I'm not going to ask you about this and yesterday's events in the future" I said

"No, I'm ready. This is the best time"

"Let's get to a quiet place now"

We walked deeper into the forest and arrived where Izumi usually rested alone before.

We both sat on a big rock there. Izumi's face turned pale again and her expression looked doubtful.

"Um, you don't have to force it. Let's talk about this later" I said to calm him down

"No!" Izumi said firmly

He took a deep breath and exhaled, then looked at me.

"I'll say it once, so please listen carefully"

Izumi stretched out her hand and her index and middle fingers hit my forehead.

A yellow light appeared on Izumi's fingertips that hit my forehead, and before long Izumi retracted her hand.

"What are you doing?" I asked while holding the forehead Izumi touched earlier

"I transferred the memory image of the memory I remember now to you. So you can more easily understand what I'm saying later"

"All right...."

"After becoming a spirit, I regained my memories as a baby, so I will tell you everything, from my birth to being a spirit like this to you"

Izumi sighed, and looked back at me seriously.

"I'll start..."

"The story of my life"
