Chapter 150 – Semifinals (2)
No matter how many Noble Phantasms he pulled out, no one thought that Sasha would win. Scarlett, and even Sasha, the party involved.
She didn’t even dare to dream that she would defeat Scarlett.
Just.
“Even if you lose when you lose, try to hit it right once, if possible…”
“If only?”
“I also want to receive recognition.”
That’s what I said before.
Romance.
Standing face to face like this with a legendary being whose name you can hear anywhere on the continent, even if the other person isn’t sincere, bumping into him with all his might, and then.
If you can get some recognition.
What more glory can there be for a warrior or a ‘fighter’?
Interest flashed in Scarlett’s eyes.
It’s not that I don’t understand her feelings, but she didn’t know that Sasha, who was usually restless for fear of Anna’s accident, would reveal her warlike side like this.
Are you really from the north?
If you think about it, Anna was like that too. She did not hesitate to say her words that would grab her by the back of her neck and fall if the Grand Duke found out.
It doesn’t have to be the first one.
Thinking of Anna saying that with her confident face, Scarlett laughed bitterly.
‘Anyway, northerners…’
With that thought in mind, she unleashes her magic power that she had been holding in the orb all at once. In an instant, the mana flowed from the orb permeated the floor, turning the floor of her field black as if she had sprinkled her ink.
“… It’s okay.”
Sasha, sensitive to her fluctuating mana, flinched at her body, but she didn’t react any further.
Exactly.
‘I didn’t even have time to react…’
She didn’t even give her time to react, though she completely took over her field.
Sasha bit her lip. She even took out her Noble Phantasm, but she felt completely dry.
“⋯Isn’t this cheating?”
“It’s a mistake to let the Wizard take over the field.”
“⋯Are you like this?”
Anyway it is There is such a thing as a difference in level, but how can that be, Sasha grumbled.
She knew it too.
There is no way you don’t know
That all of Scarlett’s foul-mouthed appearances so far were purely his strength.
Isn’t he the hero her friend, master, and princess admired so much?
I heard that the monster in front of my eyes was going to sit on the ears about the feat that it had done so far.
‘Unified Monarch of the Divided Night’
A feat that calmed the other side of the continent, which was confused by raising the family power that leaned on the previous generation and uniting the divided forces of the night to stand tall among the three families that ruled the night.
“Conqueror of the Black Forest”
A title obtained because he pioneered the Black Forest, one of the few “Black boxes” On the continent that were out of reach of the empire.
‘The Lord of the Great Lakes’
The name given to him who appeased the dragon of the great lake and shared the token of friendship with him.
And.
‘Continental Yui’s Grand Archmage’…
Needless to say this
And, a fact that only those who know it secretly know.
The man who saved the continent once.
That is the identity of her man, who reveals her faint expectations towards her right in front of her eyes.
Even if it wasn’t through Anna. Everyone, especially in the harsh North. … Sasha, too, couldn’t help but admire him.
Because it is those who live in a barren environment that yearn for the presence of a warm and great hero more than anyone else.
Wow… ,
Sasha gritted her teeth.
Most.
I wanted to show the best I could, and surrender cleanly.
“I…”
She raised her treasure, the ‘Permafrost Bow’. As befits a Noble Phantasm imbued with the spirit of the snowy field, the chill overflowed to the point that even the spectators shivered.
Creepy…
Is it the sound of grinding teeth? Or was it the sound that came from the hand holding Cocytus?
With a terrifying sound, an ice arrow created with magical energy was caught on the bowstring.
“I’m First… !”
Kiki-i-i-! The sound of breaking the atmosphere. The atmosphere twisted around the arrowhead, as if calling a typhoon.
It was pulled tight and taut, and magic power like a gust of wind blew through.
The power of the wind.
That was Sasha’s attribute.
There.
As if this was not the end, the tip of the arrow began to slowly freeze.
“Double attributes… !”
Those who watched were amazed. Dual attributes of wind and ice.
It is not simply an element created by mages by changing their magical power, but that the pure individual magical power has two properties.
Unexpectedly, the fact that Sasha is a holder of dual attributes heated up the heat again among the observers.
“Come.”
Scarlett, who was watching, also smiled, raising the corner of her mouth as if she was having fun.
‘… A character like this is a minor supporting character in the original work?’
Inside, I was very perplexed.
Even if I already know that the ‘original work’ has long since become meaningless, I cannot give up the value of ‘preoccupied information’, so I used the original information whenever necessary.
Being a ‘character’ and having such outstanding skills, being buried without much success…
‘No.’
Of course it’s an important thing.
First of all, I focused on Sasha in front of me. That would be a courtesy to her who will come crashing into her with all her might. Scarlett held her heart together and moved the shadow that eroded her floor.
Tsutsutsutsut.
When she raised her hand, a magical barrier was erected in front of him.
One layer, two layers, three layers. Eventually, the number of overlaid barriers exceeded double digits, and they were wrapped in layers.
It took just one second to get here.
And at that moment, the blow of conversion created by Sasha was completed.
Long words were not necessary.
“Shoot.”
“… !”
Piing⋯!
As soon as he finished speaking, Sasha let go of her hand.
It was a light sound not befitting a blow that could almost be described as a burst that fired an arrow that had so much power.
However.
A blade of ice imbued with a storm.
Now, that enormous energy has been compressed into a faraway state of thin body. The moment it hits the target, the seal will be released and the whole area will be destroyed.
“That’s great.”
Scarlett was amazed.
Kiyiing!
Unlike the arrow that was shot quietly, the storm that surrounded it was as fierce as if it would grind the surroundings.
The magical power of a madly spinning storm.
It wouldn’t be known if it was the ‘Hero’ or ‘Sword Saint’ who were quickly called names, but at this point, there wouldn’t be a student in the first year who could show her level of firepower.
However, her blow wasn’t enough to pierce her magic barrier. No matter how many Noble Phantasms were used, there was a wall between Scarlett and Sasha that could not be crossed.
Cooong.
The tip of the arrow touched the barrier. Spinning storms and frost-sprinkling ice. The magic of two attributes gnawed at the magic barrier and tried to squeeze in.
Big play.
The surface of the barrier slightly scratched.
“Could it be that the magic barrier of Duke Chepes is broken?”
Doubts, doubts, and expectations.
Different emotions were conveyed to Scarlett as she watched the situation.
Scarlett didn’t care about that. She didn’t even pay attention.
Some may wonder if Scarlett is taking care of him, and some may hope that Sasha’s arrow will pierce his barrier and become a new hero.
Such facts did not give Scarlet any inspiration.
Only.
Just staring at the girl in front of him.
‘What am I going to do?’
It’s like an adult watching how a child will react when faced with a difficult problem.
First step. I’m still able to block it, but if I hit the same blow a few more times, the magic barrier will break.
It wasn’t made with durability in mind in the first place, but it was used to block attacks by continuously regenerating several barriers made mainly for regeneration.
It was natural for it to break if it was attacked more than enough.
‘And if it’s an attack that’s equal to each level of the Noble Phantasm, it’s weirder if it doesn’t break.’
A blow using a Noble Phantasm. In terms of the strength of that blow, it would surpass even Anna, her master and friend.
‘Of course, I could do it if I had to end it right away.’
It was not difficult to defeat Sasha, who was defenselessly loading a new arrow, simply by moving the mana that colored the floor.
However, what does that mean?
It’s a realm of fun, but I liked Sasha quite a bit. Scarlett said she wanted to draw out more of her power rather than end it blandly.
“One more shot…!”
Just in time, the battle was over.
Hit the magic Unlike the first shot, in which even though he had compressed a huge amount of mana, the mana of the raging wind was freely released, this time even the mana of the wind was compressed and compressed to the fullest.
On top of the frost arrow, press the magical power of the storm endlessly and put it on as if it were a coating.
Its destructive power must be considerable,
People shut up. It seemed that all the nerves were focused on whether or not Scarlett’s barrier would be breached.
And.
Sasha let go of her hand. The first arrow that scratched her magic barrier was gradually losing its power. After that, she shot her second arrow and pierced it.
Fain!
‘Also.’
A barrier has been broken. Scarlett nodded her head. Her attacks using her Noble Phantasm hit her two in a row, eventually breaking it.
“Done!”
Sasha cheered briefly. Even if it was impossible with one blow, it seemed very happy to break the scarlet’s barrier in the second.
“Whoop, whoop. You see, my spleen… !”
Shuuk.
As if it was a taster, if it wasn’t for the black marble that quickly swallowed up the arrow that was rushing at Scarlett while still sprinkling the storm and cold, she might have been more pleased.
Still.
Grinning…
Sasha never lost her smile.
“Heh, heh. It’s pierced, my arrow…!”
Scarlett thought that if the dark man laughed so badly, if it was because he broke his magic barrier, he might have eaten it as a shadow.
‘I should look at it because it’s pretty.’
A pretty girl’s smile is such an easy way to draw people’s mercy.
“At the academy, I am the only one. Right?!”
Sasha runs wild, whether or not she knows Scarlett’s thoughts.
“You lost to me too~! Hee hee Just for you! I am the first to open the Duke’s Highness Barrier!”
Have you ever been that nasty?
No. More than that, it was too much of a misleading statement.
Are Northerners really the only ones like this…
It was the moment when Scarlett’s eyebrows frowned slightly.
For some reason, it was as if I heard the voice of the swordsman feeling unfair, but it must have been an illusion.
