The car which was on the opposite side of their bus moved weirdly, and suddenly it crashed into the guard rail before it flipped into the air and landed tens of meters in front of their bus before it exploded.

*BOOOOOM!*

The car exploded, but it kept moving in their direction!

"This is bad!"

"We're going to crash!"

Even though Haru had told the bus to stop in advance, the car's movement didn't stop and was about to crash them, fortunately, there was some distance between them, unfortunately, the bus couldn't avoid the car!

Everyone started to panic and some of them wanted to use their magic to stop the car, but...

*Clap!*

The sound of hands clapping and they heard his voice. "Calm down." The moment his voice fell, everyone felt calm and everything was so clear.

"Suzune-senpai, slow down the bus! Miyuki, use your magic to stop the fire on the car! Juumonji-senpai, use your protective barrier magic to stop the car!" Haru instructed them in an orderly manner.

Hearing his instructions, Suzune, Miyuki, and Juumonji also quickly reacted.

Suzune used her decelerating magic to slow down the car, Miyuki then used her magic to slow down the atom around the car to erase the fire, and lastly, Juumonji used his protective barrier magic to stop the car.

Everyone was down in an orderly manner, and the car that was about to crash into their bus stopped 20 meters away from their bus.

"................."

Everyone was stunned at this moment, they weren't stunned because of the attack, but they were stunned by Haru's calm instruction that had saved them quickly.

Haru then looked at everyone in a smile and said, "Sit down, and calm yourself everyone. We have expected an attack before, so don't panic." His voice seemed to contain magic and they sat down, relaxing their tense bodies.

Haru felt that he was a babysitter at that moment, not that he cared much.

"Thank you, Haru." Mayumi smiled while looking at Haru since she knew that everything could be solved easily because of Haru.

"You don't need to thank me, after all, if I don't do something, I'll be also in danger, Senpai," Haru said calmly. "Well, let me check the car that is about to crash into us, I want to confirm something there." He then walked off the bus to check out the car that was about to crash into them.

"Let me follow you," Suzune said and followed Haru.

Mari, Juumonji, and Mayumi also did the same and followed him, wondering whether he would find something there.

Haru had placed a video camera on the bus before, so what had happened before was clearly recorded. He looked inside the car and sighed when he saw a burnt corpse there.

"Have you found something, Haru?" Mari asked.

"Well, first of all, I could see that the driver was the one who did the magic," Haru said.

"Huh? Magic? It wasn't an accident?" Mari was surprised.

Not only Mari, but Suzune, Mayumi, and Juumonji were also surprised since they didn't notice there was magic that was used on the car that was about to crash them before.

"Haru, can you explain?" Juumonji asked.

Haru nodded and said, "It was magic, and the magician sent out a suicide attack. Small-scale magic was launched instantaneously at minimum output levels." he then raised his three fingers and explained. "There were three magics that were used by the dead driver and it was designed so it wouldn't leave any trace behind. First, a spell blew out the tires on the car. The second spell caused the car to spin. Lastly, a third was applied upwards diagonally to catapult the car, using the guard rail as a launchpad. All three were cast from inside the car."

"But why?" Mayumi asked.

"Most likely to hide the fact that magic was being used, right?" Suzune said then looked at Haru.

"That's right." Haru nodded.

"But who? Who has attacked us?" Mari just couldn't understand who would endanger everyone like this, which somehow made her very frustrated.

"Well, for now, I don't know, they didn't leave any clue for now, but you didn't need to worry. With their cowardly way of attacking, they wouldn't do anything that would expose them too much, but still, I wanted everyone to be careful until I have cleared up the puzzle," Haru said.

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Haru looked at the dead driver again and knew who was the cause of everything. He was wondering whether he should just massacre them directly since it was very troublesome to handle terrorists.

'Well, let's do it later.'

"By the way, Haru, did you use magic when you calmed down everyone?" Mari asked in doubt, after all when she heard his voice, everything was so clear and calm, she was also full of focus, which made her wonder whether he was using magic, but since she didn't feel a trace of magic before, she was doubting whether it was magic or not.

"No, it isn't magic, but well, you can say that it is my talent," Haru said.

"Talent?" 3x

Mayumi, Mari, and Juumonji looked at Haru with wonder.

"Well, it was quite troublesome to hide it, but you might have already noticed it, my identity, right?" Haru said then took off his glasses slightly.

"............." Mayumi, Mari, and Juumonji.

"Well, let's go back since I'm sure that everyone is still on the tense without anyone who can lead them," Haru said while holding Suzune's hand, then returned to the car.

Juumonji was stunned, as for Mayumi and Mari, both of them were blushing, then they looked at Suzune in a complex expression.

Suzune looked at Haru and asked, "Was that okay?"

"It is alright, you don't need to worry too much, after all, sooner or later, my identity will be known," Haru entered the bus and said, "Well, I also want to show my real identity at the competition later."

Suzune looked at Haru for a while and sighed. "I'm sure that the Nine Schools Competition this year will be merrier than before."

"Haha, that might be the case." Haru only laughed, but somehow he also anticipated this year of Nine Schools Competition.
