Growth-4
Lava Sword Hwacheong, a sword made by smelting special ore from Volcano Volcano.
Lightning Spear Fulgor, a spear made by absorbing lightning from the sky.
It is a shield made from grinding mirrors of mirrors and ruins, and although it is hard and hard, it has the unique advantage of being able to bounce off attacks by reflecting them.
[Are all those deceptive weapons stored?]
“Because it is. Even if it’s limited to Marken-sama’s arsenal.”
Considering not only the personal arsenal, but also the arsenal owned by the Reinhardt family, even if the kingdom army came, it would be possible to deal with it.
However, there are a lot of permits and restrictions on opening up that much.
[Are you dueling now to twist it?]
＜Ah, please. My purpose is to fight against Ariaspil’s growth.＞
Of course, it’s not reasonable to say no when you’re willing to give it. It was polite and manners to say ‘thank you’ when an adult gave.
[What… yes. It would be nice if I could match one with a woven one this time.]
＜Hey~ I have no such selfishness at all! Aww!＞
Leo said while looking at the old iron sword. If only he could win, it was farewell to such a cheap sword.
[But don’t be vigilant. That little boy, even though he is still young, his talent is excellent.]
＜That’s what I know best.＞
Even though he seemed to have a lot of time, Leo was also maintaining his own tension. That tension was a rational instinct acquired through more than 200 duels and defeats.
profit
When the preparations were finished, the door to the duel was opened.
Leo moved towards the arena where the light was leaking in.
***
The arena was bigger and grander than the dance hall.
Most of the people who attended the party were seated in the audience with a trembling expression on their faces. I didn’t attend the party for this purpose from the beginning, so it was a very normal reaction.
[I can’t even compare it to a gymnasium?]
＜As it is a duel that the young girl of the family is officially engaged in, there is no need to spare it.＞
As soon as I stepped into the arena, a young girl from the family in front of me entered.
[…the air current is different.]
the airflow is different. The expression was indeed appropriate.
Instead of a soft dress, the leather armor he wore was implicitly expressing Ariaspil’s skills, and the long sword he held instead of a bouquet of flowers was enough to stimulate Leo’s victory.
“Leo, come to think of it, we’ve never really tried our best.”
It was as he said.
In the first duel, Arya was pushed back using a dagger, and in the second duel, Leo did not use magic as a constraint on herself.
There were circumstantial restrictions, but that was not a reason to cool off the passion for winning.
“So…”
A long sword was pulled out of the scabbard. Soon after, the tip of the sword stretched straight toward his rival.
“Fight with all your might. I will too.”
Leonardo’s sword was also pointed at her as if in response.
“I have never seen it. It will be this time as well.”
The corners of the mouths of the two knights slowly rose.
The reason for that smile was the same.
“From now on, the duel between Ariaspil Reinhardt and Leonardo begins!”
The referee prepared for the match with his hands raised from the upper seat of the match.
“The condition for victory in a match is a loss by foul if the opponent surrenders or is incapacitated in battle, or if there is an unauthorized magic tool or intrusion.”
After the explanation was finished, the straight hand slowly lowered.
“start!!”
At the same time as the cry, an earthy wind blew in Ariaspil’s place.
“Are you gone?!”
The audience was astonished, but Leonaro was calm.
Kahn!!
The disappeared Arya stopped in front of Leo’s sword. If the reaction of the metal ringing, even for a moment, is slow, you won’t even notice the cut.
[Are you faster than before?]
It was faster than before, and it was faster than the young Arya in her previous life. In terms of simple agility, Leonardo was also faster than himself.
Chaeeng!
By bouncing the blade, Leo distracted Arya’s onslaught.
At the same time
[Steam Smoke]
A hot mist of water erupted towards Arya beyond the magic circle. Arya, pushed back by the particles, could not open her eyes.
“Ugh…!!”
When I opened my eyes, it was after particles of water already embracing the heat had covered the stadium.
‘Where? Where is Leonardo…?’
Nettle!
The opponent she was looking for began to respond with a dagger instead of an answer.
“Hurry up…!”
Daggers thrown one after another, it wasn’t enough to deflect, but it wasn’t a light offensive.
‘But one day the daggers will run out. There…’
The thick fog of water gradually dissipated. A one-time magic of about one circle could not lock in the field of vision for a long time.
‘There…!’
Leo’s red eyes could be seen through the fog. Arya had already rushed and swung her sword.
[Lightning]
The counterattack was the 1st circle lightning magic and linear magic, so it was easy to dodge from Arya.
‘Caught…!’
Before the sword touches,
Gripping support!
A simple lightning bolt that was straight out began to spread in all directions.
[Chain Lightning]
Arya was also involved in the chain-like lightning.
“aah…!!”
“…what is this…!”
All the audience were astonished. The signs of boredom or trembling had long since disappeared.
“…the dagger you threw had a wire attached to it.”
Chris (Tina) was the first to notice.
As explained by Chris, the daggers that Leonardo threw were connected with wires. As it was a wire, the conductivity was enough to transmit the power of the lightning clearly.
“The reason I used Steam Smoke in the first place was because of the increase in the power of lightning magic.”
The water particles sprinkled on it were enough to raise the lightning magic. Not only in the air, but also in Arya’s body, there was plenty of moisture.
“…you’re pretty good with leftovers.”
Even Marken had no choice but to acknowledge Leo’s skills, even dryly.
[Did you do it?]
＜You have to finish it.＞
Leo pulled the wire and began to charge. Victory was Leo’s, if only he could feed the sword.
“…eww…!”
However
[what…!?]
The lightning around it began to gradually push back. The wind of mana was rushing out from the center of Arya.
“no way…”
Ariaspil Reinhardt.
The reason she was strong was because of swordsmanship, physical ability, sense, bloodline, and various factors.
But Leo knows.
her intrinsic talent
[2 stars…that’s…]
“Auror’s form is two-star…!”
The essence of mana, that it is itself.
A cluster of two aurors began to glow brightly outside her body. The condensed mana core simultaneously pushed and deflected the lightning.
“Ugh…!!”
Leo was also pushed a little bit by the pressure of Mana.
“…what…! This power…?”
Arya was also surprised by her own growth, so she didn’t immediately shift the tesse into the attack.
‘then…!’
Leo continued the attack without opening the gap. A quick sword followed at the same time as the rapid advance.
[Hey, please wait for the transformation. The man is arrogant.]
＜Winning is justice.＞
In the end, the winner is right. To prove that, Leo did not stop attacking.
Kaan!!
But she has already finished adjusting to her power. Deflecting Leo’s stone was proof of that.
“…after…”
Now the battle was flowing towards Ariaspil.
“Keep going. Leonardo.”
It didn’t seem like it would be easy to get into the arsenal.
***
It feels like my body is on fire.
It was not meant to describe a simple burning pain.
He felt the stimulation of pouring hot molten iron instead of blood into each of his muscles and blood vessels, as well as a double twisted sensation by placing a thin wire on top of the nerve stem.
To put it more concisely.
It felt like my heart was getting bigger.
However
‘…I can win…’
That strange consciousness forged the existence of Arya sharper.
‘Leonardo, I… to you…!’
A freshly created second core was beating.
“I will win!!”
Ariaspil’s mana covered the arena.
[…can you win?]
Manae, which can be felt even in the spirit body, asked the wise man carefully.
＜…well. I’m not even sure.＞
[Is that so? For something like that…]
Contrary to the saying that he was not confident, Leo sharpened his sword.
[Are you talking too much?]
His smile was far from a tense face.
Rather, as if he was happy with that remarkable growth, he swung his sword of counterattack.
[But how are you going to win?]
Originally, after weakening it with the first strategy, he was planning to win with an onslaught.
However, since her core became 2 stars, she couldn’t win with such a soft tactic.
In terms of the number of cores, the amount, and the strength of the Auror, she already surpassed Leonardo. There were sufficient grounds for the explanation that it was disadvantageous.
However
Such a powerful sword had never reached Leo.
‘…why can’t even a single hit reach…!’
Arya herself had an advantage even in the weight, speed, and amount of mana of the sword. It wasn’t that she couldn’t control the sudden upgrade.
However, even such overwhelming swordsmanship became powerless in front of the existence of Leonardo.
“…it just doesn’t feel good.”
Seeing Leo’s swordsmanship, Rios couldn’t help but exclaim.
“Yeah, that’s not the realm of talent or sense.”
Until he ascended to the state of California, Gladio was able to experience and hire many talented people.
Therefore, it could be said that his eyes were colder and more accurate than anyone in this position.
“It’s hard to believe, but that kid must have had intense experiences at a young age. At the age of 13.”
Chris nodded as if agreeing to Gaju’s explanation.
“I’ve seen Leonardo’s body before. In terms of scars, he was like an old man who crossed the line several times.”
At those words, Marken, a really old man, covered his face with one arm.
“…still defensive, but not to the point of being overlooked.”
As the saying goes, Leo could not turn the tide of the war with an attack.
[If you go to a long-term battle like this, you are at a disadvantage. You know?]
As the sage said, if it goes to a long-term battle, the situation will return to Leo’s disadvantage. Arya will gradually get used to the two-star core, and if that happens, the one-star Leo will be pushed back by the absolute amount of mana.
so
[Lightning]
It ends with a spur-of-the-moment.
Arya took a step back from the explosion of lightning to avoid the heat. As she retreated, Arya held her sword and held her breath. Likewise, Leo also briefly recalled the beat of his breath.
Perhaps when this breathing is over, a bond is built.
[It is impossible to break through the front. You are pushed by pure power.]
Even face-to-face confrontation was equally unfavorable. Because it was an advantageous fight for the one with the faster, stronger mana and body.
[Lightning]
However
Gripping support!!
It was Leo’s fight that made up for that shortcoming.
Lightning’s electric current ran through Leo’s body, accelerating his body.
＜If this is the case, then it is possible.＞
[…What? what…]
Arya rushed. Honest vertical slash, speed and power have all overtaken Leo.
Leo grabbed his sword.
This person remembers
For 5 years, what have you done to break that swordsmanship?
What kind of weapon did you build?
After the assumption of the senses and the process is over.
One day the black was drawn.
There was no leftovers, no miscellaneous skills.
The cutting of the talents given by heaven was the foundation of the foundation, the culmination of the basic spirit.
Cutting Type 1 Partial horizontal cutting
The deepening of the basics cut through the sword of genius.
