Chapter 99

“Contestant Lux, contestant Hibiki please enter the sector . ” (clerk)

As a substitute of following the clerk’s directions, I used to be treating the accidents of Ms . Amazoness .

Since she was a slave, it will be exhausting for her to accumulate permission from her grasp to get some remedy .

However in any case, since I didn’t need to be conspicuous, I simply let her drink some potions .

Apparently her grasp didn’t need to pay for the remedy price, so he insisted to test with me earlier than giving her remedy .

“Gina!! Is Gina nonetheless alive!!” (grasp)

‘Gina’ is the identify of Ms . Amazoness .

The one shouting her identify was in all probability her grasp .

“She’s nonetheless a high 8 contestant!! Shedding her now will probably be an enormous loss!!” (grasp)

Gina’s grasp who went to the ready room was blocked by the event workers .

Simply once I felt relieved after checking Gina’s situation, this scene angered me .

“You shithead!! I instructed you to ask for my permission first earlier than treating her!! I gained’t pay the remedy price!!” (grasp)

Someway, as soon as he knew that Gina was secure, he was already involved with cash once more .

He was apprehensive about Gina as a result of she was his greatest supply of cash this time .

After checking his standing, I discovered that he was service provider . He was only a service provider irrespective of how I need to say it .

“What remedy are you speaking about? I simply let her drink a potion . ” (Hibiki)

When the person noticed it, his nostril flared up .

“No matter you do, I gained’t pay for the potion . ” (grasp)

By the way in which, the quantity of potion I used on Gina was really earnable by even a small family .

Solely a very crooked ‘service provider’ may very well be stingy to even little issues as that .

Unquestionably, our hero of justice exploded when he noticed this talentless service provider .

Gina appeared to be recovering simply high quality, so I dragged him alongside to the sector albeit in a little bit of a forceful method .

“Hibiki!! Why did you get in my manner!!” (Lux)

“Hey you, what do you suppose will occur if a contestant was caught making hassle earlier than the match? Furthermore, you and Gina would be the one who receives the blame as an alternative of that man . ” (Hibiki)

Listening to that, Lux turned quiet .

“Sorry, Hibiki . I’ve introduced hassle once more for you . ” (Lux)

“No worries . After this match, the loser will get to deal with that uncle’s complaining . ” (Hibiki)

We talked whereas we headed to the sector .

=====

[The contestants have entered the arena . It seems the two of them entered at the same time . ] (Commentator)

Two folks entered the sector, and confronted one another .

“Let’s have match . Hibiki . ” (Lux)

“Yeah, don’t you dare die on me . ” (Hibiki)

After bumping our fists flippantly and greeting one another, the referee introduced that the match had begun .

[We are here at last at the semifinals, the first match . The two contestants are facing each other . ] (Commentator)

As they have been talking the play-by-play, I used to be watching how Lux would act .

Nonetheless, Lux was merely gathering his energy for the incoming assault . He appeared to be solely standing there, however I may see energy coursing to his legs and arms .

“Right here I come, Hibiki!!” (Lux)

Lux’s physique disappeared . And he did so with such velocity .

“Kuh!?” (Hibiki)

I rapidly twisted my physique to evade Lux’s assault .

If 【Perception】 didn’t catch the timing of that assault, the match would’ve ended proper there .

“As anticipated of Hibiki . ” (Lux)

Lux launched a pursuit whereas laughing fortunately .

As for me, I averted two extra assaults by making a again step .

After analyzing his battle model the [Fierce Blade], I’ve deemed his assaults as one thing that was ‘unimaginable to protect in opposition to’ .

Neither a defensive merchandise nor deflection from martial arts would work . It was really proof of his ‘sturdy character’ .

Towards that [Fierce Blade], the one measure left obtainable was to evade it .

And extra importantly…

Lux’s [Fierce Blade] wasn’t really a sword talent .

That’s the way it was .

After all, it was not restricted to the sword .

In different phrases…

“[Fierce Blade], can work with common punches or kicks . ” (Hibiki)

I don’t know if there was a [Punch] or [Kick] talent on the market, however one can nonetheless do punches and kicks with out utilizing a talent .

That being stated, I didn’t know the underlying technique behind it but, however Lux’s [Fierce Blade] lined the entire vary of human movement .

In that case…

“How about this?” (Hibiki)

I launched a hearth bullet at Lux .

Lux calmly deflected the hearth bullet along with his [Fierce Blade] .

Nonetheless, earlier than his sword touched the hearth bullet, the bullet burst into enveloping flames .

With that, I confirmed that [Fierce Blade] solely labored in opposition to one thing that he may straight contact .

Lux instantly emerged from the flames, and resumed his assault .

Due to the silver armor of sunshine, there appeared to be barely any injury .

Subsequent up, the applying of 【Hearth Magic】 .

I collected magic energy on the tip of my finger and produced hearth, after which let it unfold black smokes .

Lux was vigilant in regards to the smoke, thus stopped his steps . He took far, whereas making use of [Fierce Blade] to test whether or not there was a lure within the smoke .

After all, it was a lure . The smoke was meant to seek out out the period of the [Fierce Blade] .

If [Fierce Blade] had a lingering impact, the smoke would hold disappearing on the trail that it had traversed .

However the smoke solely disappeared on the one level the place it touched the smoke .

I didn’t know for sure whether or not it was consciously or unconsciously, however [Fierce Blade] does should be activated first .

And naturally one can’t instantaneously activate it, it required focus .

Nonetheless it doesn’t require the consumer to wield a sword .

“I suppose this implies I’ve achieved a small victory?” (Hibiki)

After he was positive that there was no lure inside, Lux got here nearer . I manipulated the wind to clad myself with the smoke to cover myself .

After which, I utilized some water magic to his toes .

“Hm? What is that this!?” (Lux)

Lux was taken abruptly with the mucus on his toes . Nonetheless, it did little to hamper his motion .

Making use of that opening, I shot a number of wind bullets from varied instructions .

Lux, detecting a small change within the smoke, instantly scattered the bullet that got here from his entrance with [Fierce Blade] .

Nonetheless, the opposite bullets hit him from varied instructions, aiming to off stability him .

“Kuh!!” (Lux)

Lux averted a few of the invisible wind bullets along with his wonderful bodily functionality .

However he couldn’t stick with it perpetually and the remainder of the bullets managed to interrupt his posture .

“Thi-this is, [Gale Hero]’s!?” (Lux)

Sure, that was the assault of the [Gale Hero] who received defeated within the first spherical . I didn’t remorse practising this in secret .

Lux immediately took the hit and was blown away to the sting of the sector .

I didn’t suppose it will defeat Lux, however at the least I dealt some injury to him .

“Eee, ahahahahahah~” (Lux)

Lux laughed whereas falling down . I’m wondering if I hit his head too exhausting .

“Superior, as anticipated of Hibiki!!” (Lux)

Apparently, he acquired barely any injury . He appeared happy as an alternative .

He received up and lay down an assault as soon as extra .

Though it was quicker than I anticipated, I’d simply counter him as soon as extra . The wind bullets flew towards Lux’s path as soon as once more .

Lux swung his sword . I additionally introduced a sword myself, however I didn’t really feel like utilizing it .

I couldn’t have my beloved sword damaged .

“[Fierce Blade]!!”

Swinging his sword, Lux shouted the identify of his method .

The following second, the wind bullet hit Lux’s physique and despatched him to the sting of the sector .

Or at the least it was imagined to be that manner .

“Wha-what!?” (Hibiki)

The sword reversed rotation with Lux because the axis with an amazing momentum proper in entrance of my eyes .

I used to be taken abruptly and unable to reply in time .

Once I realized it, Lux’s sword was already very near hitting me .

“[Fierce Blade]!!” (Lux)

After listening to for the second time the method’s identify being shouted, I used to be the one being blown to the sting of the sector this time .

“Guh, uuuuuu” (Hibiki)

Ache ran by means of my entire physique . I used to be near shedding my consciousness however I nonetheless managed to face again up .

After a short time, the ache diminished . Due to 【Self Regeneration】 .

I managed to pressure my severely injured physique to rise up .

“You’re actually wonderful, Hibiki . To obtain that assault and nonetheless be capable of arise . ” (Lux)

Proper then, he entered the posture of [Fierce Blade] .

Assaulting the enemy with a really apparent assault, solely to reverse course on the essential level on high of including one other layer of [Fierce Blade] proper earlier than hitting me .

Is that this, the ability of a ‘Hero candidate’?

I checked the state of my physique .

Proper arm, left arm, proper leg, left leg . All of them damage however they nonetheless moved as desired .

“Till now, I didn’t really feel like doing this . ” (Hibiki)

Struggle correctly, solely then can I appropriately lose .

However…

“In any case, it’s not humorous if I merely give up . ” (Hibiki)

One shot . I didn’t really feel like backing down now .

I’ll strive it out one final time!!
