El-Fighter: The Brave New Fighter (Book I)
69. Other Ways I

Tazuya and Inuya get out of the Namidashi family residence and return to their school as quickly as possible by heading to the stop near the bakery. Before returning to school, Inuya hugs her parents and promises she will always be a good boy and asks Ringo to always trust her

“ Good Ma...Pa...I went back to school first yes “

“ Thank you for the meal Mr and Mrs Namidashi.sorry to trouble you “ Tazuya said as he bowed to Ringo and Toshi.

“ That's because you're his best friend Inuyari ! I'm happy if as long as Inuyari has a good friend like you “ explained Toshi

“ Be careful there ya nak~ “ Ringo said as she re-hugged Inuya

“ Yes Ma ! I will always be fine and be a good child.Therefore we must trust each other “ Gumam Inuya who joined Ringo by smiling gently at him.

“ Sorry...if mom...always worry about you and don't trust you “.

“ Mama is not wrong..so..yaaa...it's okay ma....I always forgive you “ Inuya said while bowing lethargic and still hugging Ringo.

“ Okay ! Please bring this~ and do not forget to share with your friends yaa~ “ Ringo suddenly returned cheerful while giving a box containing bread to Inuya

“ Ah ! Thank you ! “

“ Come Inuya ! We need to get back to the door before the re-entry bell rings ! “ Take Tazuya

“ Iyaaa Yaaaa ! “

Tazuya and Inuya ran to a stop and directly boarded the Bus towards Shinjitsu International High School which had just stopped to drop some people there. At the same time, Sampson and Oxtoroo, who were relaxing in a cafe not far from Amai Bakery, watched the two of them while checking the contents of the video recorded from Spidaro

“ So the owner of the bakery is his parents Beta El-Fighter ? “ Oxtoroo said while watching the recording and at a glance he noticed Inuya and Tazuya who boarded the Bus to return to their school

“ Why are you asking as if you doubt his family ? “ Ask Sampson

“ As what Spidaro tracks..status their species is purely human ! Unlike the Beta, which is likely not just any normal human ! “Oxtoro obviously remembered their previous track results

“ You mean ? “

“ We can't track down that blonde Delta because he himself said that he is the figure of the God of Death ! While the plum-haired Gamma said that he was a Spezialist..”sub-ras” group of humans ! Spidaro was able to capture his data because it was likely that the Spezialist had long lived on Earth ! While the Beta was.status the species was unknown ! Unlike both his parents and all his friends “ Oxtoroo explained

“ Hmmm ! Is there perhaps a new “sub-ras” of mankind as yet unknown ? “ Ask Sampson

“ May ? But if she's a mutant, the results of the experiment or because of an infection...Spidaro should be able to read it too ! “ Oxtoroo replied with his tone of doubt

“ Hmmmm..I don't think the planet is really a lot of weirdness yaaa “ Sampson complained with his casual tone

“ Yaaa ! We don't have time to study this planet ! And the bad Prince Morsdantaque wants this planet to be part of our colony as soon as possible ! “ Said Oxtoroo

The two of them were silent for a moment while watching a video from Spidaro about the activity that had just happened at Amai Bakery. Oxtoroo then asked Sampson about other ways to get the Fighters to hand Dullart over to them without having to involve a fight and think what diplomatic means it could be solved easily

“ I...to be honest tired of the fight ! “ Said Oxtroo

“ Hmm ? “

“ We continue to fight..and also lose.and it always ends in vain and destruction is increasingly so-so in this place ! Though we are here to look for Young Master ! Yaaa I know His Majesty is interested in this planet.but I'm not sure he's not the one who wants to rush about it “ explained Oxtoroo in his casual tone.

“ So you mean...you are curious to use diplomatic means to them ? “ Ask Sampson

“ Yaaa ! But it was done without the knowledge of the elite soldiers including the bastard woman ! “ Said Oxtoroo

“ Hmmm...Do you think the General agrees with that ?” Ask Sampson

“ General Argus himself said that he handed everything to us ! He only monitors and gives directions about our plans “ Oxtoro replied

“ Do you think this will work ? “

“ I hope so...do you think that is a good idea ? “ Ask Oxtoroo

“ I don't really know sih~ but it doesn't hurt if we try to use peaceful means to persuade the five of them ! But on condition that they also have to bring Young Master with him so that he can also hear what we want “ Sampson said while giving additional suggestions to Oxtoroo

Oxtoroo thought for a moment about what Sampson said. Oxtoroo thinks Sampson's input is good enough because it can make Dullart believe his words. Especially as an imperial advisor, Oxtoro could see something strange on the side of the empire

“ Okay ! We can't do it as fast as we can ! Because this is a peaceful way without using weapons.we have to design what it looks like so that none of us accidentally use weapons in this way “ Oxtoroo said.

“ Yaaaa ! “

“ Let's do this..for the future..and Swift Polly ! “

At Shinjitsu International High School, the age break hour bell has rung when Tazuya and Inuya finally get to their school and enter through the back gate of the school. The next hour is the Mathematics clock with a teacher named Shizue Morgana who is none other than the wife of Mr. Victor Morgana, the teacher of the Language Class who is known as equally assertive as her husband

(Kriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii)

“ Woah ! On time ! “ Word Tazuya

“ Let's quickly put this bread first into the locker ! Because soon is the lesson of Shizue Morgana's mother ! “ Inuya

“ Oooh no ! It would hurt if we were late ! Come on quick ! “

In the classroom, the students of grade 1-LA-A are learning the special angle of Trigonometry. When Morgana's mother explained the material, Tazuya secretly activates another program from his laptop and sees the Polly brothers' actions spreading across several websites and social-media that make Tazuya really not like karin's actions

“ Hmmmm “

“ Iga ! Iga ! “ Call Mom Morgana to Tazuya who doesn't pay attention to her material

“ Ah ! “ Tazuya was surprised when he heard the call from him

“ Do you know the answer of Sin 30° + Cos 45° ?! “ Ask Mom Morgana to Tazuya with her firm tone

“ Aaah ? It..uuuuuh..”.

“ I know the answer Ms. Morgana ! “ Haku Akashinya directly raised his hand

“ Haaaa ! Alright Akashinya ! Please answer ! “ Said Mrs Morgana

“ Uh ? “

“ Iga-san ! I know math isn't your favorite subject ! But if you like and enjoy it. I'm sure you can learn it “ explained Ms. Morgana with her firm tone.

“ Yes Mom...Sorry “ Tazuya said with his sluggish tone

A few hours later, after passing the days of school without any serious problems, finally the school class hours began to end. Jubei approaches Tazuya, Inuya and Ataru while asking about their plans to visit Ryuga at the hospital

“ So how ? Can we go see Ryuga-kun today ? “ Ask Jubei

“ Of course ! If we can talk about our next plan, how ? “ Tazuya said as he asked Inuya and the others

“ Hmmm can also “ Inuya said

“ So you've got a good idea or plan of attack for next ? “Tanya Ataru

“ Actually anyway..I have little doubt whether this will run smoothly or not ! Because that's when the hospital later.I all want to contact Mr. Rigel and Dullart-san as well.Yeah to talk about it “ explained Tazuya.

“ Okeee~ if that's what you said I'm also curious as to what plan you mean ! “ Jubei

“ Well Jubei ! You do not need to be confused about what you want to say with Ryuga later “ said Inuya while showing a package containing a bread box given by Ringo and Toshi

“ What is it from your parents ? I'm sure this is the new bread “ Celtap Ataru

“ Of course ! Mama and Papa are unlikely to give us leftover bread ! “ Inuya said in a high tone because he was annoyed by Ataru's words

“ Sieps ! Then let's go to the hospital ! “ Invite Tazuya to others to go to Bus Stop

While boarding the bus, Tazuya also activated Rigel's DECA-I call program on his smartphone while telling them their next destination and asking the little robot to go to the hospital where Ryuga was being treated

(Beeping! Beep it! Beep it! Beeps)

“ Ah ! Tazuya called me ! To the Hospital ? Okeeeeeee~ meluncuuuuuuur~ “

*****

Arriving at the hospital, V-FIGHTER and DECA-I came simultaneously to the hospital in question. While welcoming the arrival of DECA-I, Tazuya and Jubei also praised the program created by Rigel that succeeded in making the robot come to the place it was intended

“ Wohoooooooooo~ Yaaaaaaaaaaay~ TADAAAA~ DECA-I here~ and have come to the place that has been forceduuuuud~ “ Said DECA-I with a tinge of cherry to the four of them

“ Cool ! It turns out that the program Mr. Rigel installed from your smartphone works smoothly ! “ Jubei

“ Yaaa ! Very cool, yes ! You caught our signal very quickly ! “ Praise Tazuya

“ By the way about visiting the sick..have you guys brought anything that can be eaten by him ? “ Ask DECA-I

“ Oooooh~ kereeen ! “

“ Naaah~ let's go in ! “ Take Ataru to the others

In the hospital room, Ryuga was seen hearing a television show about a variety show called “Night Talk with Narita-san : SUPER STAYCATION EDITION ! “ along with a magical wooden mannequin named Woodiny that Hugo brought from their home. Woodiny was originally owned by Yamato. But he belonged to Ryuga after Hugo and always accompanied him at home

“ Login ! “ Ryuga said when he heard the sound of a knock from Lu

“ Hey ! “

“ Oooh you guys ! “

“ So how are you doing now ? “ Ask Tazuya

“ Thank goodness it has improved “ Ryuga explained by giving them a warm smile to V-FIGHTER

“ Ryuga-kun ? What is this ? “ Tanya Jubei while watching Woodiny who is hiding behind the closet

“ Hey hey heeeeeee~ are you also a robot ? “ Ask DECA-I who also accidentally saw Woodiny

“ The Woodiny ! He is not a robot..but a wooden mannequin moved with our magic~ “ Ryuga explained

“ Ooooh~ I just found out about it “ said Inuya who took out the bread on the table in the hospital room

“ That's because my father purposely brought it so that I wouldn't be lonely in the dorm ! Well, he's actually a little friend of Yamato's...after the death of his brother he finally became my friend~ if I feel it looks like Kak Yamato is quite an artistic person because he has a wooden mannequin that he turned on to be his friend “ Ryuga explained about Woodiny

“ Then...how about your father ? Did he scold you ? “ Tazuya asked in his anxious tone

Ryuga was silent for a moment as he recalled Hugo's warning. But Ryuga replied that Hugo did not scold him even though he was a little disappointed in his actions that caused him to be injured at the hands of the enemy

“ Hmmm no “ Ryuga replied briefly

“ Really ? Good then ! You know.I'm a little worried about what you want to say with Mr. Mangetsu ! We are a little anxious if this will make him suspicious of us.more he is a Spezialist “ explained Tazuya.

“ Don't worry ! Yes, he did not like what I did yesterday.I tried to defend myself.but the good news is he does not suspect me...even though he thinks I'm a sloppy boy who's a strong-witted “ Ryuga told others

“ That's the same way he scolded you in a pretty smooth way “ Inuya said

“ So that means you can go home tomorrow ? “ Ask Ataru

“ Yes ! Tomorrow morning I can leave hospital “ Ryuga replied

“ Aaaaaaaah~ thank goodness ! “ Said Jubei who was pleased with Ryuga's words and immediately hugged the glasses young man

“ Jubei-chan..don't hug her hard ! Later the wound stitches can open because you “ Remember Ataru to Jubei not to hug Ryuga too hard

“ Oh Sorry~ “

Recalling his intention to invite the others to visit Ryuga, Tazuya asks DECA-I if Rigel can be contacted for them. DECA-I replies that Rigel and Dullart are currently available to contact because their training was completed a few hours ago and Tazuya immediately asks him to contact Rigel

“ DECA-I “ Call Tazuya

“ Yes ? “

“ Can Mr Rigel be contacted now ? “ Ask Tazuya

“ Hmmm~ looks like ? I'll call you for a minute “ said DECA-I who directly contacted Rigel at his home

At the residence of Rigel Orionis, Rigel is seen coming out of a mysterious dirt carrying room that enters through a mural painting of Dennias the Gamma El-Fighter predecessor Ryuga Mangetsu. The FAIS who received the call immediately contacted Rigel and said that Tazuya and the others contacted him to talk about something important

“ Mr Rigel Orionis ! Mr Rigel Orionis ! “

“ What's the matter FAIS ?! “ Ask Rigel

“ There was a call from Tazuya Hideyuki Iga and his friends “

“ Hmmm ! Where's Dullart ? “

“ Dullart-san is in the monitoring room “ FAIS replied

“ Okay ! I'll go there and answer the call “

(In the monitoring room)

“ Ah ! Rigel-san ! Look ! “ Welcome Dullart while showing calls from Tazuya and others

“ So it's really from Tazuya ? Okeeee let's lift ! “

(Click)

After waiting for approximately 5 minutes, Rigel and Dullart finally answered a call from Tazuya through DECA-I. When he saw Ryuga with them, Rigel immediately asked about his condition and he was immediately relieved when he knew Ryuga was fine and would be home soon tomorrow

“ Aaah~ kids ! You guys in the hospital ? “ Ask Rigel who knows where they are

“ Yaa~ and Ryuga are getting better now “ Tazuya explained

“ Is that true Ryuga Boy ? “ Ask Rigel

“ Of course Mr. Rigel~ I can go home tomorrow “ Ryuga said

“ Aaaaah good then ! We are glad to hear it “

Tazuya was silent for a moment and finally spoke up about the reason why he wanted to contact Rigel and Dullart because he thought of another way to stop Thetoid without having to involve a fight

“ Umm Mr Rigel “

“ Yaaa ? “

“ Actually..there's something I want to talk to you about “ Tazuya said in his tone of doubt

“ About what is it ? “

“ You know.. I always thought to try “way aman” to persuade Thetoids to stop their intention to rule this planet ! Do you think it can be done ? “ Tanya Tazuya who still uses her tone of doubt

Hearing Tazuya's words made the V-FIGHTER more curious about what Tazuya wanted to say

“ How to be peaceful ? Are you kidding Tazuya ? “ Ask Jubei

“ Nights Jubei ! Give time for Tazuya to talk to “ Rigel said

“ Here Sir ! I've always thought that people named Oxtoroo and Swift Polly don't actually want the help of the elite soldiers we've been dealing with lately ! I can see if Swift Polly is not so happy in her cooperation with her own brother ! “ Clear Tazuya

“I want to add Mr ! He has also twice warned us all about those elite soldiers and asked to hand over Dullart in a peaceful way ! According to Ataru...Oxtoro seems not to be lying if he is in trouble and not happy about their cooperation with the elite soldier “ Inuya added Tazuya's words about Oxtoroo and Swift Polly

“ That's why.I want to..try a peaceful way to persuade them so that we can get a way to stop those elite soldiers along with Morsdantaque ! Because I am sure..if they want to be invited to cooperate.this will make their superiors the General named Argus was willing to accept Dullart and defend him in the face of Morsdantaque “ said Tazuya.

“...” Rigel thought about the words of Tazuya and Inuya

“ That's not so bad idea ! I can also see if Swift Polly and Oxtoroo are not as cruel as what we thought “ explained Jubei

“ What about the attack they did with that plane ? “ Ask Ryuga

“ Maybe it was elite soldiers ? But honestly ya~ I think this way is not because I forgive them.that's because I don't want them back to hurt the residents in our fight ! “ Clear Tazuya

“ Yes Tazuya ! Oxtoroo and Swift Polly I can tell you are quite different from Morsdantaque and his minions ! Also I'm sure the reason they're still continuing this mission and the intention to rule the planet is because of Morsdantaque ! I guess..it would not hurt if we went to Oxtroo and Swift Polly to find out what really happened there “ Dullart said

“ How Mr Rigel ? “ Ask Ataru

“ You know the children..I actually hesitate to carry out this plan ! But if you want to try it out on Oxtoroo and Swift Polly it doesn't matter ! But all you need to know is that you must not act recklessly to approach the enemy ! “ Clearly Rigel with his serious tone

“ That means..”

“ Yes ! I don't think there's any harm in us trying for the safety of this city's residents and the future of the people ! “ Answer Rigel

Tazuya's eyes widened upon hearing Rigel's approval. Hearing that, Tazuya thanked Rigel for agreeing to his opinion

“ Thank you Mr Rigel ! For your attention ! “

“ Hmmm “ Rigel replied with his smile

“ Come on ! We start our conversation as to what the plan is ! “ Tazuya says with Inuya and others to talk about their latest plans
