After entering Nightray, Noah’s swordsmanship was improving day by day.
On the other hand, Tiu came here with the intention of restoring the family’s lost vision, but was not getting any income.
I learned about the mindset of swordsmanship, survival skills in the wild, and unique weapons from overseas.
However, when it comes to pure swordsmanship skills, there has been no significant change since admission.
Although he studied the swordsmanship of countless students in Night Ray, it is another matter to learn it and sublimate it into experience.
“So you came to see me?”
Ursula expressed disapproval when she saw Tiu who came to visit her.
“help.”
“Even if you suddenly come and ask for help… … .”
To Ursula, Tiu was nothing more than a junior in the same dormitory.
If you are in trouble, we can help. After all, we do sparring in the middle of the night every night.
However, realistically, it was impossible to achieve noticeable results in a matter of days.
‘Isn’t something like Noah possible because three of the 15 immovable people stick together all day long?’
To be honest, no one was expecting Tiu in the Black Moon Dormitory.
It is obviously a great thing for Tiu, a freshman, to make it to the quarterfinals in the preliminary round.
The problem is that those in the black moon are all looking at the top of the night ray.
There was nothing special about the black moon.
“Of course I know what you think of me. You would think that this is a difficult task to take on.”
From noble mtl dot com.
“Anyway, I didn’t think so… … .”
“but.”
“… … ?”
“What if I, who learned from Ursula-senpai, beat Noah, who learned from Ophelia-senpai or the Ribery twins?”
At those words, Ursula’s expression also changed.
From the look of simply judging the situation by wondering what is going on, to the look of fun.
“Oh, you say you can beat Noah?”
“I am the one who has had the most contact with Noah’s swordsmanship at this school.”
“Certainly, you were the type to analyze your opponent and respond accordingly.”
Recently, Noah was recording an amazing win rate even in the middle of the night.
However, since admission until now.
Tiu has never been beaten by Noah.
‘Actually, I’m losing if I count the period I stayed in the boarding house before admission.’
It was a fact that Ursula could not know.
“Hmm. Is it a proxy war between the youngest? It sure draws me in a bit… … .”
Ursula deliberately made a fuss.
A situation where we already know what each other wants.
Thiu took out his card without delay.
“Challenge. do you need it?”
* * *
‘The way he uses the intangible sword is so annoying!’
Semifinal against Tiu.
Noah struggled with Tiu who took out an intangible sword.
‘Each manipulation level is not very different from Mia. But Tiu is aiming for the right timing for me to do something.’
Thiu’s research results were clearly pushing Noah.
Noah had no choice but to be pushed back in a number fight unless he could respond to an intangible sword with an intangible sword.
There is only one way to overcome this.
Hwareuk!
Noah’s sword was covered with flames.
“Cow, attribute conversion?”
“Wait, after Felix?”
Transformation of flame properties.
Noah’s sword wrapped in flames burned and split Tiu’s intangible sword.
“how is it? It’s not that I haven’t been playing all this time.”
The attribute transformation of fire used by Noah was only manifested in splitting the sky following his grandfather’s mantra.
But now.
Noah succeeded in completely miniaturizing the sky splitter that used to shoot huge fireworks.
“how… … ?”
“It was ripped off. Rather than copying others, in a direction that I can use more comfortably.”
Regina granted Noah’s wish to use attribute transformation in real combat.
Completely improved technology in an incomplete state.
Thanks to this, to some extent, I was able to use the attribute transformation of fire at will.
“Really, being a genius has a certain degree… … .”
The sword that burns the sword.
Tiu sighed as he looked at the sword wrapped around the fraudulent flame.
“It’s truly overwhelming destructive power.”
Felix, who split the ice made up of attribute transformations, was just a special case.
In general, a sword skill that has reached an attribute transformation eats up an ordinary sword skill.
Felix cutting off Veronica’s ice is amazing.
“Even touching the flames will damage you.”
A skill that even became fraudulent in a fight using swordsmanship.
“In that case, you don’t have to touch it.”
Tiu accelerated.
* * *
What Thiu demanded from Ursula was extreme speed training.
“This is how I found it.”
“Certainly, Noah can’t use the intangible sword, so the attack range is limited. If you’re really fast, you might be able to dodge all the attacks.”
If Felix was trying to overcome element transformation with the quality of his sword skills, Tiu was the exact opposite.
It does not deal with the sword skill that has been converted into properties.
If the opponent is stronger than you, avoiding a power struggle is also a strategy.
“Will it work though? If it’s Noah, his body’s elasticity, agility, and reaction speed are at the level of animals.”
“That’s why I’m asking Ursula-senpai. Because no one can match the senior in speed.”
Ursula’s twin swordsmanship Eterna was a speedy sword that was incomparable to other swordsmanship.
Top rankers in the top 1,000.
Among those top rankers, high rankers mean those who are in the top 100.
Ursula was a master of the quicksword who took the position of a high ranker.
If you can keep up with Eterna’s speed, you can avoid Noah’s sword.
“You won’t say anything about losing later?”
“Of course.”
* * *
“What is that… … .”
The spectators who filled the large arena were speechless at what was happening in front of them.
Just a while ago, Felix’s attribute conversion awakening had stirred up the whole school.
In this semi-final, there was not much interest in the content of the game itself.
The only thing I’m curious about is whether it’s true that Noah beat Frank with his real skills.
What people were expecting was Veronica to appear in the finals, it didn’t matter who the opponent was.
“But as soon as it started, it was a sword of fire. Aren’t you very good at that too?”
“Noah is also Noah, but what the hell is this Tiu guy? Aren’t you rather pushing against the guy who uses attribute conversion?”
In ranking matches, when there is a difference in sword skill level, the probability that the lower side beats the higher side was only 3%.
If there is a difference in geomgi, there will usually be a difference in the other side, such as rigid body or swordsmanship.
Furthermore, it was known that Sewage could not respond to property conversion at all.
Felix, who was able to respond in a limited way due to extreme sword compression, was a special case, but it was a natural matchup to lose without being able to do anything.
But now Tiu was showing a new answer Ha-su could take.
“You’re dodging all of them without ever touching the sword… … ?”
Accelerate at a speed that the opponent’s sword cannot reach.
If necessary, create an intangible sword and use it as a disposable shield or scaffolding.
Jumps in the air using a platform, maneuvers three-dimensionally, and creates gaps in the opponent.
Counterattack through the created gap.
Tiu ‘It’s easy to say, how do you do that?’ He was really performing a feat that made the sound come out.
“A guy named Noah isn’t slow. Both keep accelerating!”
When Noah chases Tiu’s speed and pours more aura into his rigid body technique, Tiu also accelerates further.
A fight that constantly accelerates while burning each other’s auras.
Noah and Tiu’s workshop was progressing at a speed that even the students who had learned rigid body techniques could not keep up with.
“What kind of workshop is that fast? You can only see afterimages.”
“Is that a freshman match? Does that make sense?”
As the remnants of flames were added to the already fast pace, it was difficult for the audience to even grasp what was happening.
The only thing that was certain was that the two were playing at an incredibly high level right now.
That was a huge shock.
“I don’t know if they’re from the 8th generation, but even those guys with no names… … .”
Every student of the Nightray carried a certain amount of defeatism at heart.
Everyone is aiming for first place, but there was only one person.
All the rest of the people were the ones who didn’t come in first place.
There were also those who burned their passion to overcome the wall when faced with it.
However, when most people saw a high wall, they concluded that it was an impossible wall and gave up.
In addition, those who gave up once justified their giving up by adding reasons that they had no choice but to give up.
In Nightray, that was the difference in origin.
‘That guy is from a better family than me, so I can’t help it.’
‘Ever since I was young, whether it’s an elixir or swordsmanship, you must have received something better than me. How can I win?’
The match between Noah and Thiu was a head-on refutation that that idea was wrong.
“Those guys have already been confirmed to compete anyway, and that’s it… … .”
“Even if we make it to the finals, our opponent will be the 7th princess, so why aren’t we giving up… … ?”
A whirlwind of flames and countless lightnings wrapped around the storm.
The afterimages of the swordsmanship created by the two formed the appearance of a natural disaster.
The overwhelming sight was imprinted in the minds of the spectators gathered here.
On the other hand, the VIP room located on one side of the stadium.
In the event of the semi-final match between the dorm members, the seniors of the Black Moon were also watching the match.
“Boy Tiu. Was it possible to use an intangible sword? Did anyone know anyone?”
“No, this is the first time.”
“I knew.”
“what? how?”
“You asked me to help you prepare for the game.”
Tiu’s intangible sword had accumulated quite a bit of proficiency.
At least, that means it’s not the power he recently acquired.
“It’s amazing that I didn’t know even though I practice sparring every night. If you’re holding a tool called an intangible sword, you can’t help but notice it.”
“To the extent that it tricks our eyes. I thought he was pure, but how strong is he?”
Shiva and Ophelia only found out about this for the first time today.
“What about Aslan? Did you know, too?”
“huh.”
“Eh? Then tell me something. I hadn’t even dreamed of it.”
From noble mtl dot com.
“Sorry sorry. It’s what you asked for.”
Aslan told Shiva about what happened with Thiu.
“I was once asked why. Thiu’s answer at that time was very impressive.”
“What did you say?”
“I have to beat Noah, so please keep it a secret.”
Shiva’s eyes widened at the unexpected story.
“Isn’t it great? I hid my own skills for over a month in order to know the opponent’s skills early and win. No, it’s more than two months since we boarded together before entering school.”
“To think Tiu was such a competitive guy… … .”
“He looks calm, but in fact, Tiu is the same as us. In other words, he is a guy who wants to stand on top.”
Even while talking, the two competing continued to accelerate.
When Tiu increased his speed, Noah also raised the gear of rigid body technique as if he had waited and caught up with him.
It was a maddening speed battle with the momentum to pour out all the auras they had.
“If both of you run out of aurors, the advantage is gone. Doesn’t look like it’s going to last long. Aren’t you using auras a lot?”
To maintain Noah’s attribute transformation and Tiu’s speed, a large amount of Aura was consumed.
Both of them want a short fight anyway.
It was clear that soon one or the other would bet on the game.
“Still, Noah still wants to win. It seems that the surprise operation that I have been hiding so far has hardly worked.”
“no. The game starts now.”
“what. Ursula, do you know something too?”
“If Thiu really believed in the difference in information, of course he would have bet everything on the first attack, would he have shown the intangible sword so simply?”
“Are you saying Thiu intentionally led the current situation? That means… … .”
If the current composition was intentional, there was only one possibility.
“Oh, zero. A pure swordsmanship fight will unfold, excluding swordsmanship and martial arts.”
