My Sword has to Talk!

CH. 22- Bros Before Gals

A worn-out Marcus was stretching his arms high as he yawns. Marcus could see his eye bags were visible as he looks at his reflection on his computer screen. His entire body was sore after doing an all-nighter answering his homework.

Marcus felt stingy and itchy eyes as he rubs them slowly. He went straight to his bathroom and took a shower preparing to go to school. While in the shower, he remembered about the exchange hunters staying with him.

“Wait! Those guys have to be prepared to go to school too!”

Marcus started fo rush cleaning his body. After remembering about Blitz and Lorenzo. Because of the two hunters, Marcus's original thirty-minute shower was reduced to ten minutes. After showering, Marcus rushed towards his closet and git dressed.

Upon opening his closet, Marcus saw the suit that the organization had given him. However, he cast it aside and grabbed his daily clothes, a regular black T-shirt and pants. After getting dressed, Marcus looked at his sword lying down the side of his bed.

Marcus had second thoughts about bringing Mister Sword with him. However, after thinking for a bit, he remembered that they could get attacked anywhere. He grabbed Mister Sword with him and put him in his bag like storage space, which resembles a badminton racket bag.

After preparing, Marcus immediately exits his room and runs down to the kitchen. He was worrying if he has still time to cook. But when he arrived there, he saw Lorenzo and Blitz was about to start eating.

Both of them were eating pancakes, and Lorenzo was enjoying it. Marcus saw a pancake untouched on another plate. Marcus was scratching his head in confusion as to the two able to prepare breakfast.

Then Blitz looked at him and spoke with an angry tone, “What are you doing there, just staring? Aren't you going to eat? Don't tell me you're also going to drag my studies down by being late. Don't you have any worth?”

Marcus was terrified of Blitz that he unwillingly sat down at the table and are his share. But when Marcus got a taste of the pancake, he suddenly felt bliss at how it is.

“Isn't these Chocolate German pancakes delicious, Marcus?” Lorenzo spoke as he savors every bite of his pancake. “Never thought that a scary guy like Blitz is better at cooking,” Lorenzo added to his previous speech.

After hearing Lorenzo, Marcus was shocked to know that Blitz was good at cooking. Marcus even screamed, ‘OH MY GOOOOOOOD!’ Internally, after learning this information on who cooked the food served on the table.

The three then walked towards the school. Usually, Marcus gets picked up by the school bus. However, because they were already running late, the school bus had left them.

Lorenzo was so disappointed by this as he wanted to experience what it's like to ride a school bus. Mainly when he got used to riding a Becak when going to school. However, as they walked, Lorenzo was quite curious about Marcus. So he asked some personal and hunter-related questions about Marcus.

“Hey Marcus, can I ask you a question.”

Marcus slightly turned his gaze towards Lorenzo and replied with a nervous, “n-no problem.”

“What is your cursed weapon?”

Marcus answered immediately, “My cursed weapon is Mister Sword.”

“Mister Sword… So you're a swordsman; I'm kinda jealous of your weapon now.”

Marcus felt surprised at how friendly Lorenzo was, so he asked about Lorenzo's weapon. “Since I told you mine, Lorenzo, may I know what cursed weapon are you using?”

“I'm using a dagger which has an asymmetrical blade. It's called a Kris. Also, is your sword able to talk, Marcus?”

“Yes, why do you ask?”

“Well, your sword and my dagger have been arguing for quite some time now. I think they hate each other very much.”

Marcus scratched his head in confusion about Lorenzo's words. But he was surprised that other weapons could talk to their owners. But this answered a question that Marcus had always asked about weapons. Weapons can speak to their wielders.

After hearing Lorenzo, Marcus spoke to Mister Sword telepathically. But when he reached Mister Sword, he was greeted by a scream.

“Talk to me later! I am busy with this menopause sassy little girl whose a grandma.”

“Who are you calling a grandma? I'm only five thousand years old!” A little girl's voice yelled as a reply to Mister Sword.

“Why you already a grandma, aren't you! You're past your expiration da…”

After that, Marcus turned off his telepathic abilities to communicate with Mister Sword. He then gazed back at Lorenzo and spoke, “They're going at it, don't they?”

“Yep, they've been like that since last night. I just ignored them and stopped listening. But when I listened back to my dagger. They're still going at it since last night until this hour, throwing insults at each other. I never thought weapons were this annoying.”

The three arrived at school in the hallways of the school. The three of them garnered attention. But Blitz was the one who garnered the most attention from the girls still walking in the hallways. Blitz ignored them and gave the girls a cold personality, which resulted in the girls whispering and giggling.

Meanwhile, Marcus and Lorenzo kind of felt jealous about the attention Blitz was having from the girls. They watch in sorrow as girls tried to bump into Blitz while avoiding them two. But Marcus is used to girls avoiding him.

However, Lorenzo was showing the aura of jealousy too much. He was not even trying to hide it as hot girls try to bump into Blitz. Marcus then grabbed Lorenzo on the shoulder and spoke, “Don't worry too much, brother, if we can not have girlfriends. Then let us descend as the ultimate virgins that no one can beat! ”

After hearing Marcus, Lorenzo smiled as he saw a shine of hope in Marcus's face. It was like he was a saint sent from the heavens above to join his pain and suffering as a virgin.

Then suddenly, a teacher bumped into Marcus, who was holding Lorenzo's hand as they were about to descend as ultimate virgins. It caused their descent to stop, and both of them looked at the teacher.

But when Marcus saw the teacher, he screamed, “Aaaahhhh! You're that girl.”

The teacher looked at Marcus as she puts her glass into place. Then the teacher was surprised to see Marcus, but the female teacher smile and replied to Marcus, who was in shock seeing her.

“Well, well, if it isn't cherry boy, you left me hanging, unsatisfied, and begging for more of your inexperienced techniques. When you touched my body, the night we spent together was somewhat still short even though you turned me.”

“Marcus! You are a traitor to the brotherhood of Virgins. To think that you made out with a hot teacher like her, I'm so jealous.” After Lorenzo said that, he went straight, running to their classroom, crying in tears.

Marcus, on the other hand, was then looked at by the other boys in the hallways. All of them gave Marcus the look of jealousy and rage after they heard everything. Marcus gulped after knowing that he has created multiple enemies in the school. Marcus immediately runs towards his classroom after receiving the gazes of the boys.

Meanwhile, Lorenzo arrived, who ran into a classroom where couples are making out. Seeing this made Lorenzo petrified and say, “this is hell.” He immediately walked out of the room. He then went to the corner of a locker. He sat down and cried in that corner until the bell rang, reminding the students that classes will start.

Marcus sat down at his table alone in the cornerback of the room. Their homeroom teacher checked their attendance. After that, the teacher then announced to the class, “since everybody is here. Then this would be great to introduce your new classmates from Asia and Europe.”

The teacher looked at the entrance of the room and called out the two students. Marcus already knew about these two new students. The door opened and revealed a blonde boy with deep blue eyes that shows a cold personality. Another was a tanned boy with black hair and brown eyes crying as he walked toward the center.

Marcus was shocked at Lorenzo, who was crying. The teacher, on the other hand, was perplexed by Lorenzo's crying. So he asked Lorenzo about the reason for his sadness.

“Lorenzo, was it?”

Lorenzo gave the nod to the teacher as an answer. The teacher then continued on his original intention.

“Then Lorenzo, may we know why are you crying? Did someone hurt you?”

Lorenzo answered, “No.” Making the teacher even more confused about Lorenzo's sadness.

“Then what is it?” The homeroom teacher asks.

Lorenzo replied, “This school is hell; it's a breeding ground of horny teenagers!”

The teacher was stunned by Lorenzo's answer that he was unable to say anything. Instead, he just told them, “introduce yourselves, and we can proceed to the class. ”

Blitz introduced himself first, and the girls started giggling, which all of the boys in the room hated. But Blitz ignored all of the attention he was getting as he introduces himself.

“I am Blitz Helsing, an exchange student from Europe. I'm looking forward to you all having a great school year with me.”

After Blitz's introduction, the teacher immediately looks at Lorenzo, who was still sobbing. The teacher had second thoughts if he would let Lorenzo introduce himself in that state or just let him skip.

Before the teacher could decide, Lorenzo was starting to introduce himself while sobbing.

“I am Lorenzo Rizal, *Sob* n-nice to meet you all, *snotting*.”

The teacher let out a sigh after Lorenzo's introduction. The teacher pointed his index finger to the two vacant chairs near Marcus. He then said to them, “you two take the empty seat next to Marcus.”

Lorenzo chose one seat apart from Marcus; then Blitz took the seat in between. Thus the three hunters were seated beside each other. Blitz sat on the center, Marcus on the left side corner near the window and, Lorenzo on the right side next to another student.

Then Lorenzo threw paper at Marcus, which had the word written. “You traitor, pengkhianat!"

Marcus understood the first word but the second one; Marcus could only scratch his head in confusion with the second word. But Marcus did not care and threw the paper in the trash can.

However, Marcus could feel the murderous aura that Lorenzo was emitting. It was not only Marcus who felt the dangerous intent, as their teacher felt the same aura. The teacher even had chills climbing up his spine as he thought it.

But suddenly, the aura that Lorenzo emitted was overpowered by Blitz, which was pure rage and destruction. Blitz even had the face of someone who had enough of the childish behavior of Lorenzo.

Lorenzo immediately calms down after feeling the powerful aura of Blitz. His transition was like that of an enraged tiger into a crying kitten upon tasting Blitz's wrath.

The teacher, on the other hand, was tho king to himself, “What the f**k is wrong with those two exchange students. It's like those two are sending some dangerous vibes. Almost like they want to kill me, why did I have to accept this job.”

After the class continued, however, as they were busy with their school life, the three hunters did not know that Clint and Rose, who was the teacher that Marcus bump into we're up to something.

“Hey, Big C, are you sure about unleashing this thing here?” Rose asked Clint as she looks at the giant four-by-four-meter cage with black smoke.

“Didn't I told you not to call me Big C? Call me Clint now. Also, about unleashing that monster in this school is good.”

Rose moved her face to the cage as she replied to Clint, “But unleashing this thing would be dangerous to the bystanders. Especially it's a B- category monster.”

“Hunters should know how to minimize the casualty of civilians as they slay. Also, we are testing the strength of those two exchange hunters. Not only that, but we will see how those three will cooperate.”

Rose, who moved away from the cage and spoke, “So your planning to achieve all of those goals with one stone. You sure are Lazy Big - I mean Clint.”

“I think we talked enough, unleash the monster, Rose.”
