"Avenger?"
"Yes."
Julie nodded and started to tell Tsukasa why she had decided to come to this school.
Listening to her story, Tsukasa really wondered what was going on with this world since he felt everything was incomplete and there wasn't much information about this world.
It wasn't that he couldn't search the information through the internet or computer, especially when he could turn an ordinary computer into a quantum computer.
His programming and hacking skills were also quite good, so it would be easy for him to search for anything on the internet.
However, it was forbidden to use the internet and even computers in this world school.
Tsukasa also wasn't that bothered by it, considering he was just greedy for Lukifer and just wanted to become strong as soon as possible, so he had never thought too much about this world.
It was just he didn't understand why Julie's father was killed and who this killer was.
Also, why did this person decide to kill Julie's father?
Tsukasa felt that everything was blank, and even if he wanted to help her, there was nothing he could do.
However, looking at her small trembling body, Tsukasa hugged her tightly.
"Tsukasa..." Julie snuggled into his chest, and it felt so nice to be hugged by him. Right now, she just wanted to stay like this as long as she could.
"Julie..."
"Hmm?"
"I am not saying you should stop with your revenge or anything since if it can make you feel better, you can do it. However..." Tsukasa took a deep breath and said, "The dead don't desire revenge, but the happiness of the living." He caressed Julie's cheek gently as he gave her a gentle smile. "I am sure that your father has never wished you to give him revenge. Instead, he wants you to grow up happily."
"...Tsukasa."
Julie just stared at Tsukasa as she felt her heartbeat move faster and faster. She felt that her body was hot, and her face flushed.
"Still... your back."
Tsukasa saw the scar on Julie's back.
While he didn't mind the scar, Tsukasa somehow wanted to beat the shit of someone who had given her such a scar.
"...Is it bad?" Julie asked worriedly.
"It's okay. Julie is cute no matter what."
Her face was burning red.
"Still, if we become a Duo, there's something that I want you to promise," Tsukasa suddenly said.
"Yes?" Julie looked at Tsukasa curiously, wondering what he was going to say.
"While I know that it is hard for you to accept, I might not be in this school forever, so when that time comes, you should search for another Duo, alright?" This time, Tsukasa didn't lie and needed to straighten everything up since he knew he needed to be responsible, especially for a good girl like her.
Still, Tsukasa knew that he didn't have a right to use the "responsible" words, considering what he had done in his previous life and this life since there was no shred of responsibility for each of his actions.
"Why?"
Hearing her voice mixed with sadness and disbelief, Tsukasa didn't feel surprised. "Julie, like you, who is an avenger. I also have my own purpose for coming to this school."
"Why then? Why do you want to come to this school?" Julie was just so happy when they would become a Duo, but who would expect that she wouldn't be with him forever. If he had something to do, she would help him since they were a Duo after all.
"It might be strange, but I want to become stronger."
"...You want to become stronger?" Julie was dumbfounded and asked, "Haven't you strong enough?" She felt Tsukasa was the strongest person she had ever seen in her life.
"Not yet." Tsukasa shook his head and said, "It's not enough." When he thought about how powerful the girls were in his original worlds, he felt that he wasn't strong enough. He wouldn't even be surprised that the girls in his original world would be able to create a special space to trap him there, so they could monopolize him.
Tsukasa knew that he couldn't change his personality, and he had always been a scumbag, but even so, he didn't want to be stabbed, tortured, or killed by his girlfriends, which was why strength was necessary.
"Once I can't see any improvement in this school, I will leave."
"...How long is that?"

"Probably once I have reached a Level V."
"Level V..." Julie murmured and thought it would take a while before Tsukasa became a Level V since she heard that a normal Exceed needed three years to become Level III. However, with his strength, he should become Level V when he graduates, right?
"Okay, but can I follow you?" Julie suddenly asked.
"...You want to follow me?"
"Yes." Julie nodded without hesitation.
Tsukasa wasn't sure since he kept the matter that he could move to another world as a secret, but this time, he shook his head and said, "Sorry, no."
"..."
Julie lowered her head, and her body deflated.
Tsukasa looked at Julie and asked, "Do you like me that much?"
"Ja." Julie looked at Tsukasa and said, "I like Tsukasa."
"Thanks." Tsukasa smiled gently as he patted Julie's head again. "I like Julie too. That's why, let's not think about that unpleasant matter now, alright? Tomorrow, we're going to make our pledge to become a Duo, so let's sleep early." This was the best way for now since he didn't really want to discuss this matter, considering it contained his secret.
"...Ja." Julie nodded obediently even though there were still some things that she wanted to ask. However, she was a good girl, so she also didn't want to be late on the ceremony pledge becoming a Duo tomorrow.
Tsukasa was about to go to bed, but Julie slipped into his bed. "...What are you doing?"
"We have decided to become Duos now, so we should be together from now on."
"...Okay."
Julie smiled as she snuggled into his chest. She closed her eyes, tried to sleep, and held the racing heartbeat she felt right now.
Looking at the sleeping face of this angel, Tsukasa felt that he really would go to hell when he died in the future. However, he decided to throw this matter aside and slept with Julie.
As the next day arrived, they stood in front of the staff of the school to start their pledge as a Duo.
Tsukasa looked at the oath that he needed to recite when he formed a Duo with Julie, and his lips twitched.
"Tsukasa..." Julie looked expectantly.
Tsukasa let out a helpless sigh and summoned his Blaze.
Julie also did the same.
A cube and a short sword held against each other as Julie and Tsukasa recited their pledge as a Duo.
"Those who form a bond are from that point on to spend the rest of their time together. Happy times, sad times, times of health... Until the day that death shall part us." 2x
Tsukasa had never thought that he would utter such a pledge in this world, which made him so helpless somehow.
'Is this a marriage?'
However, looking at Julie's happy smile, Tsukasa could only swallow everything and officially held her as his official Duo.
"Tsukasa."
"Hmm?"
"I am happy." Julie looked at Tsukasa and asked, "How about you?"
Tsukasa blinked his eyes and said, "Me too. I am happy to have you as my Duo, Julie."
"Ja."
Julie rubbed her face against his chest happily.
Looking at this smile again, Tsukasa knew that this girl had become his Duo, and for now, he should just enjoy it while he could.
Still, why did he feel he would be stabbed sooner or later?
