Nagato Kagutsuchi: The Dawn
Ch. 177 - Destroyer! The Kugo of the Eternal Fire College!

The match that was now presented on the field of the Tiger Circle Arena left everyone dumbfounded. The genius disciple from the Eternal Fire School could defeat his opponent easily, today he would play the match three times considering that he had not competed yesterday.

His first match against Dekaku of the Agata Clan was enough to leave the audience dumbfounded. Both Kakugo and Dekaku use swords. It was just that Kakugo manipulated his body aura and his fire element into an explosive. The great sword that became his main weapon made Dekaku lose after the two exchanged dozens of moves.

The wounds experienced by Dekaku were not severe but Dekaku was lying on the ground with a body drenched in blood. Although not until it becomes a deep wound or fatal, Kakugo deliberately makes his opponent vomit a lot of blood out of his mouth.

The expression on Kakugo's face seemed to enjoy seeing his opponent sprawled and drenched in blood. Seeing that, Mujin gave Kakugo a warning and stopped the match.

Kakugo is still waiting for his turn to compete. The two matches he is still playing make some young swordsman guts shrivel. Meanwhile Nagato was worried about his friends who had yet to compete. Nagato hoped that Iris, Litha, Tika, Hika, Chiaki, Chaika and Hisui would not meet with Kakugo.

Despite always being cold, Nagato disliked seeing a man torturing a woman. For Ninjin himself, Nagato was quite confident in his friend's abilities.

Several matches have been passed, now Nagato sees the clear difference seen between Kakugo and Ninjin. The battle between the Kakugo of the Eternal Fire School and the Ninjin of the Kitakaze Clan was already evident.

Nagato clenched his teeth looking at the constantly pressed Ninjin, every slash that Kakugo had slashed at him was successfully repelled by Ninjin. But every time Ninjin repels it, there will be an explosion of the great sword of Kakugo.

A very talented kakugo would even become a very troublesome opponent if he met Nagato. Just this time Nagato saw a child of his age who had a great murderous appetite, Kakugo's seduction attracted Nagato's attention.

"Ninjin! You can't lose! Don't you want to fight against me?!" Nagato sat down while holding himself back to remain calm. The match he saw was quite draining his patience, however Ninjin was Nagato's first male friend.

Nagato may have only female friends until now, and Ninjin is Nagato's friend even though the two rarely meet, but seven years ago Nagato already considered Ninjin a friend.

The attack that Kakugo continues to pass is very dangerous to his opponent, Nagato himself can see if Kakugo intends to injure Ninjin fatally.

Many are aware of the sadism of Kakugo but in any case Kakugo is just intimidating, he said, if the young man qualified for the round of 32 it is likely that he did not hesitate to kill or injure his opponent until he was paralyzed and made his opponent unable to become a swordsman anymore.

The sound of explosions on the field made everyone stare intently at the match. It was seen that Kakugo slashed his sword on the ground and blew up the lands that were hit by his sword slash, while Ninjin continued to avoid Kakugo's sword slash after realizing his opponent's strength.

The wind slash and wind vortex launched by Ninjin could be avoided by Kakugo easily. Ninjin gnashed his teeth at the power of Kakugo far above him even though his enemy was younger than him.

"Give up!" Suddenly Kakugo stopped attacking Ninjin. His face looked at Ninjin with a look of condescending eyes.

"I don't want to see your struggle go to waste! My goal is only to fight in the round of 32 so that I can see more blood and blood!" Kakugo laughed as he stuck his sword on the ground.

Ninjin smiled faintly at Kakugo's words that humbled him. His opponent was fighting only for his inner satisfaction, it was obvious that Kakugo only liked to torture.

Ninjin saw all over the body of Kakugo who had bruises and even the scars of the incisions were also clearly visible on his body. Kakugo's toenails have been removed. Seeing that, Ninjin actually felt sympathy because he felt that his opponent had hidden problems.

"What really happened to him? Was he used to being tortured until his mentality turned out to be like this!" Ninjin clenched his teeth and strengthened his heart, throwing his sympathy away. If he let his guard down just a little bit then it would be his biggest mistake.

"There's no answer! Killed you!" Kakugo moved swiftly towards Ninjin while swinging his sword. Explosion after explosion was heard in the middle of the field.

Kakugo's attack was brutal and directionless, anything he detonated with his sword slash. Now Ninjin really has been pushed.

"Wind Gusts In Incision!"

Ninjin attempted to retaliate against Kakugo's attack. The slash of his sword was able to make Kakugo retreat a few steps back. But it did not take long for Kakugo to attack Ninjin again and make his opponent desperate again.

The slash of Kakugo's sword was very deep and made Ninjin spew blood from his mouth as it held back the slash of Kakugo's sword right in front of his chest. The explosion occurred when Ninjin repelled the slash of the Kakugo sword.

"Aragh!" Ninjin grimaced in pain and vomited a considerable amount of blood. Mujin instantly stopped the match right after Ninjin's hand took off his beloved sword and his body collapsed to the ground.

"Damn I lost! I promised Nagato!" Ninjin nodded when he saw Kakugo's smiling face and was about to slash his sword back at him.

Everyone was shocked to see Kakugo about to slash Ninjin's body.

"Stop! Hey, you're not with!" Mujin released a dense black murderous aura towards Kakugo.

Nagato who was already furious and now he was in a standing position, while his hand held his sword but the soft touch of a beautiful girl made Nagato slightly relieved his emotions.

"Pacify yourself Dragon!" Iris pulled Nagato's hand until the young man sat back on the bench.

"Whoever dares to hurt my friend, I will never forgive! Let go of me Iris!" Nagato looked at Iris who looked very calm.

"Look!" Iris gestured with her eyes. Nagato looked down at the field and there was something surprising.

Seen there was Mujin who had held onto Kakugo's hand tightly.

"Remember the rules, boy!" Mujin released a greater killing aura.

"If you want to fight to the death wait for the round of 32! Control your emotions young rancid!" Mujin throws Kakugo's hand until the young man retreated to the back.

"Nagato, I know what you're feeling but hold your emotions!" Emi rebuked Nagato.

"Sorry, I don't care if I'm disqualified. If he's going to hurt one of my friends then it's another!" Nagato responded with a fierce rebuke to Emi.

"It's not just Ninjin but if it happened to you, Iris, Litha, Tika, Hika, Chiaki, Chaika and the spoiled Hisui. I won't let it go!" Nagato squeezed his hair and leaned his body, after which he let out a long sigh.

"I can understand if Nagato is afraid of losing someone again but somehow I feel a bad feeling about this." Emi looked at Nagato who had begun to subside his emotions.

"Thank you Nagato you said that," Tika responded to Nagato's words with a smile. Most women will have deep feelings for Nagato but for Tika to be Nagato's friend is enough.

Tika from childhood only wanted to marry the person she loved, but actually Tika only wanted to see her twin friends and sisters happy. Tika has never been in love with a child her age, however, she falls in love with Nagato at first sight but all of that does not last long after seeing the change of Iris who meets Nagato in Yasai City.

Tika still remembered when Nagato and Iris were fighting together, Iris's change was very noticeable because she was worried about Nagato and was constantly waiting for the young man to wake up from his long sleep. Even after waking up, Tika could see Iris' cold face change softened after her life was saved by Nagato.

"You're getting angry with Nagato too quickly!" Iris reprimanded Nagato while crossing both her hands on his chest.

"You're too quick to get jealous" Nagato replied in a cranky tone.

"Dragon!" Iris hissed while pinching Nagato's arm.

"Thank you for trying to calm me down" whispered Nagato softly as she held Iris' hand. Then his hand touched Iris's ring finger. It was not for how long Nagato chuckled at the timid face of Iris. The change in Iris' attitude made her want to tease him further but the gazes from Hiragi and Satha made Nagato feel a little annoyed.

Nagato himself could understand why many men did not like him. But he only had his female friends who were always there for him, so he didn't really care if there was a child his age who mocked or insulted him behind his back, as long as they didn't insult his friends.

"Dragon, what if I fight Hisui? Are you interested in that?" Nagato was silent for a moment hearing Iris ask him.

"Stop that..." Nagato answered Iris's question briefly.

"I'm serious." Iris said softly with her eyes looking towards the field. He did not want many people to pay too much attention to his closeness to Nagato.

"I'm interested to see you guys fight. One girl is cold as ice and the other is a very spoiled cute girl," Nagato replied with a slight jest.

"Who are you saying girls are cold like ice? Is that me?" Iris looked annoyed at Nagato's words.

"Yes, that's you." Nagato still did not glance at Iris.

The two of them spoke softly in the midst of the boisterous spectator watching the match.

"The perverted guy who's looking for a chance when I'm asleep. Hmphh!" Iris turned her face to the side arrogantly.

Nagato silently did not respond to Iris' words. His eyes were fixed on the fight down there between Sasae from the Waterfall of Truth against Atarin from the Sword Dragon Sakti.

Sasae's graceful swordplay captivated the attention of the audience. The young blue-haired girl won the match after exchanging attacks for a few minutes and exchanging five moves with Atarin.

"It seems Nagato easily controls his emotions whenever he is near Iris." Litha bathed softly in the recesses of her heart. He was used to seeing Nagato who was always emotional, even when Nagato was emotional, the young man had to fight with Grandpa Hyogoro even though it was only a trivial matter.

Litha recalled from the 222 fights between Nagato and Grandpa Hyogoro none of which Nagato won. Given that, made the sweet girl who wore hairpins patterned blue roses smile little.

Litha realized that she only considered Nagato as her fellow student. Even Nagato's kindness and concern for her all along, Litha considered all of that because Nagato considered herself like a little sister to be taken care of.

"Why Litha?" Shirayuki glanced at the little smiling Litha. Emi, Ichiba, Oichi, Tika, Hika, Nagato and Iris turned to look at Litha.

"It's okay, Litha is just grateful to be considered a part of the Fuyumi Family." Litha replied to Shirayuki while wiping her tears.

"Basic Litha, Aunt Shirayuki already regarded Litha as Aunt's own son." Shirayuki embraced Litha and leaned the sweet girl's head against her shoulder.

"Aunt Shirayuki wants her to be called Litha's same mother. But you are timid," Shirayuki said as she gently squeezed Litha's nose.

Litha laughed softly looking at Shirayuki's face.

"Thank you Mother." Litha smiled gently towards Shirayuki.

Shirayuki's body trembled, her face flushed to see Litha's extremely sweet and adorable smile.

"From today Nagato and Litha should call Aunt Shirayuki Mother. You two have already considered me the same as Iris." Shirayuki stroked Litha's hair gently.

"I don't mind. Besides, I consider Litha as my own biological sister because Iris wants to be like Hika and Tika, Mom." Iris smiled at Litha and Shirayuki.

"Iris..." Litha looked at Iris glazed over. Today he was very happy to hear the words of Iris and Shirayuki.

"Me?" Nagato red-flashed his face in embarrassment. To be honest if he gathered with his friends from the Fuyumi Clan the atmosphere like now is often the case.

"Nagato you agree, right?" Shirayuki smiled towards Nagato.

Ichiba and Oichi laugh at Shirayuki who looks very indulgent to Iris, Litha and Nagato.

Nagato just nodded his head slowly. Seeing that, Iris stared coldly at Nagato.

"Hmph! You're shy!" Iris smiled faintly towards Nagato. Then his hand pinched Nagato's hand.

Emi, Shirayuki, Ichiba, Oichi, Tika, Hika and Litha laughed as they could guess Nagato's embarrassed facial expression.

Nagato held onto Iris' hand and held it for a few seconds before taking it off.

"I moved in next to Grandma Emi. Every time we both get together with someone else, we're always like this." Nagato stood up and moved beside Emi. He himself is hard to believe if they are near Iris for sure they will both look very close.

Iris was embarrassed to death because she dared to seek Nagato's attention in the crowd. Then he looked at Tika who was looking at him.

"Acts. Do I look like-" Unfinished Iris spoke, Tika cut off the words of her best friend.

"Iris. You two are too flashy to sit close together. I also did not expect to see this cold friend of mine dare to hold Nagato's hand." Tika closed her mouth holding back a laugh seeing Iris's embarrassed expression.

"I hope you two will grow up like this. I heard the story from my mother, if we're adults then we'll be more embarrassed and away. He said that human feelings are easy to change. But we're young, so it's only natural that you guys are so close. The important thing is that Iris don't lose your first kiss before she's seventeen." Tika blinked her eyes while smiling towards Iris.

"Kiss?" Iris thought of herself kissing Nagato's lips while on Samui Island, but it was her first experience.

Iris's face flushed red, she was trying to look like normal. He also recalled last night that he was kissed by Nagato, but only for one second.

Iris was also aware of her feelings, she had just experienced them. For some reason every time I was near Nagato, Iris always felt like getting closer to Nagato.

"Why can I be like this? This must be because of him?" Iris nodded while taking a long breath.

Hearing the boisterous sound of the audience slowly Iris threw away her warm feelings all the way, now she had to focus on the match first.
