328

“What? What?”

“A tsunami?”

“Oh my goodness…!”

Cries of shock erupted from the spectator stands.

In response, Runba, who was in charge of commentary, shouted excitedly.

-Ahhhhh! A tsunami! Leo Flobe! He created a tsunami using fairy magic! Isn’t this absolutely insane?!

-What did you just say? Runba Tes.

-Kuhuk! P-Professor Hallind… So what I just said was… Thud-!

Runba’s broadcast was cut off after he unconsciously let out an exclamation mixed with profanity.

At the commentary desk, Runba was lying face down with his head buried in the ground while Hallind was scolding him with a cold expression.

Hark, who heard Runba’s commentary, let out a hollow laugh.

“Don’t tell me he made a contract with a great water fairy?”

“He didn’t make a contract with a great water fairy. If he had made a contract with a great water fairy, he wouldn’t have gone through the trouble of creating a tsunami with the water from Lake Lumeria. With the power of a great water fairy alone, it would be possible to create water to cause a tsunami.”

Lil explained.

“Really? It’s not as impressive as I thought then.”

“It is impressive! In some ways, he did something more difficult than making a contract with a great water fairy!”

Lil clenched both hands and waved them frantically as she continued her explanation.

“He made temporary contracts with countless water fairies living in Lake Lumeria in an instant to create a tsunami! It’s incredible fairy magic! Ah! I want to have an in-depth conversation about fairy magic with Leo right now.”

“Our cute Lil is excited.”

Elena smiled broadly.

“He changed the entire battlefield… What kind of scheme required him to go through the trouble of changing the battlefield like that?”

To Aina’s question, asked without taking her eyes off the screen, Hark answered indifferently.

“He probably wants to summon a magical beast that displays powerful strength on a battlefield that’s become a water sea.”

“A magical beast that displays powerful strength on a battlefield that’s become a water sea! Maybe he’s trying to summon Pegasus?!”

Lil shouted with an excited expression.

“Are the three great magical beasts someone’s pet dogs?”

Just as Hark was shaking his head.

Flash-! Kwagagagagang-!

Pure white lightning struck down.

Seeing the magical beast called the Pure White Phantom that appeared along with it, Hark made a dumbfounded expression.

Elena twisted her hair as she spoke.

“At this level… Leo must be almost like a nightmare to the 2nd years, right?”

***

Bubble bubble bubble-!

Cal, who had fallen into the water, flailed about.

In front of such Cal, Eliza’s magical beast, Delpinus, and Luri appeared.

Squeak-

Cal looked at Delpinus and frantically flailed his arms and legs.

Squeak-!

Delpinus bit Cal’s clothes and dragged him above the water surface.

“Puha! Th-thank you.”

At Cal’s greeting, Delpinus let out a squeak- squeak-! cry and dove underwater.

Cal, who barely made it above the water surface, urgently used magic to float his body and then looked up at the sky.

And discovering Leo riding a pure white horse there, he let out a hollow laugh.

‘…He really summoned Pegasus too?’

When Cal heard the story that Leo had summoned a fairy.

Cal had thought that maybe Leo had made contracts with all three great magical beasts.

Logically, it was a story close to impossible.

‘But Leo has always surpassed common sense.’

He planned his strategy assuming the worst of the worst.

‘He changed the battlefield to be advantageous to himself.’

Actually, Cal knew well that Leo wasn’t affected by the battlefield.

Leo could exert 100% of his combat ability anywhere.

On land, on water, in the sky.

Those affected by the terrain were Chloe and Chen Xia.

And the other dormitory students who were attacking Glory’s stronghold.

Cal turned his head to look at Glory’s stronghold.

‘Attacking the stronghold has become impossible.’

The moment the surrounding area became a water sea.

The students from Harmony and Noble lost their battlefield.

Of course, there would be students who displayed greater power in underwater combat and students who weren’t greatly affected by water.

But at the very least, students specialized in land combat would have difficulties in battle.

Unlike the combination of Harmony and Noble, Glory still held the great advantage of having a rampart.

In addition to that…

‘Selia and Duran.’

The advantageous compatibility that had been gaining the upper hand against Chloe and Chen Xia.

That advantageous compatibility would surely tip the scales toward Chloe and Chen Xia the moment it changed to underwater combat.

Chloe, who handled ice magic, and Chen Xia, who possessed water-attribute aura.

Selia’s power would be halved in underwater combat.

In addition, Chloe had obtained ‘water’ as an attack method that she could freeze at will.

Furthermore, Chen Xia was one of the strongest students in underwater combat among the 2nd years.

‘He intended and created every situation by himself.’

It could only be described as truly phenomenal.

‘Amazing, Leo.’

Always as if there were no limits.

He had accomplished amazing things as if it were natural.

Because he knew that fact so well.

He had anticipated this situation where they would be most desperate, just in case.

Cal’s eyes sparkled.

‘That’s why… I prepared!’

***

Seeing the battlefield that had become a water sea, Selia let out a hollow laugh.

She could guess whose work it was.

“Really… even though he’s my cousin, this is going too far.”

Just when she would steel her resolve and stand up to chase after him, he would widen that gap again.

The spark that had been revived seemed like it would be extinguished again.

Whooooo-

Selia gripped Flame Storm properly.

Strong heat emanated from Flame Storm, which had regained its straight blade appearance.

‘Still… let’s not break.’

Whoosh-

Her wet body quickly dried.

‘It’s always been like that, hasn’t it?’

Selia’s eyes shone brightly.

‘I’ve walked my own path.’

She had resolved to become a great knight who would not be lacking before her great ancestors.

A great knight who would surpass them.

‘I just need to continue doing that.’

“You’ve returned to the Selia I know.”

Chloe, who had lifted her body with Fly magic, smiled as she stood on the water surface.

Click-!

The water Chloe stepped on froze, creating a place for her to stand.

The Harmony and Noble students who had been floundering in the water flinched.

“Hey! Get out of the water quickly!”

“Chloe’s magic is coming!”

Splash-

Chloe dipped the tip of her staff into the water and chanted a spell.

“Ice World.”

Crackle-crackle-crackle-crackle-!

With Chloe at the center, the water froze instantly.

The students who had been desperately trying to escape the water were frozen and all received death judgments.

Tap-!

Chloe looked at Selia with her blue eyes and said.

“You’re next, Selia.”

“…I’ve wanted to fight you at full strength for a while now.”

Grip-!

Selia readjusted her grip on her sword.

Whoooosh-!

Crackle-crackle-!

Hissss-!

Ice and fire clashed, and thick steam covered the battlefield.

Crackle-!

“Aaaaaaaah!”

“Hey! Duran, if you attack now it’ll be team kill!”

“That’s not my problem. Dodge on your own.”

Duran spoke coldly and unleashed his lightning aura.

Flash! Crash-crash-crash-! Sizzle-sizzle-sizzle-!

“Eeeek!”

“Everyone fall back!”

Golden sparks went wild throughout the water in the surrounding area.

“I, I almost got electrocuted.”

One male student who barely escaped Duran’s attack range broke out in cold sweat and stood on the water using Aura Step.

“That’s what I’m saying. I thought he wouldn’t attack when allies were around, but Duran is merciless as expected, isn’t he?”

“Gasp? Ch, Chen Xia!”

“Is that where you are?”

The Male Knight Student was shocked to see Chen Xia crouching on the water, muttering as if she couldn’t be helped.

Duran’s sword energy flew toward Chen Xia.

The Male Knight Student tried to dodge in shock, but Chen Xia tripped him first.

“Oops.”

“Wh, what are you doing!”

“I’m going to use you as a shield.”

“You cruel woman!”

The male student screamed.

Chen Xia lightly waved her hand.

Then, like a light ball, the male student took Duran’s lightning instead.

Crackle-!

At that moment-

Duran’s sword energy moved like a snake, changing trajectory to avoid the male student and fly toward Chen Xia.

Just as Chen Xia was about to easily dodge the attack after seeing this.

Thud-!

Duran, who had approached before she knew it, grabbed Chen Xia by the throat.

“You’ve escaped well until now, but.”

Duran’s golden eyes flashed.

“This is the end.”

Rumble! Crash-crash-crash-crash-!

“Uggggggh?!”

Chen Xia, who was electrocuted, screamed.

Crackle-! Hissss-!

Chen Xia’s body went limp.

Her head also dropped down.

As if she had fainted, the bracelet indicating her life was blinking red.

“He’s, he’s merciless.”

“Wow… That must hurt.”

As people muttered in disgust from here and there, Duran snorted.

“Who do you think this person is? Chen Xia is strong. If I let my guard down, I’ll be the one who gets hurt.”

“Gotcha.”

“…!”

Grab-!

“And you know what, Duran?”

Chen Xia smiled a sharp smile, different from usual.

“Shadows build resistance to their weakness attributes. I’ve been receiving something like forced electrical torture since I was young, so I have strong resistance to lightning aura.”

Splash! Plunge-!

Unlike her small appearance and cute, gentle face, Chen Xia’s fighting method was tough and utterly desperate.

Literally a mud fight where she didn’t care about her own injuries to bring down her opponent.

Being caught by Duran was also to drag Duran into the ‘underwater’ battlefield that was advantageous to her.

‘Grr!’

Duran gritted his teeth, gripped his sword, and tried to raise his aura.

Whoosh! Thud-!

But Chen Xia’s fist piercing Duran’s solar plexus was faster.

Crash-crash-crash-! Thump-!

Duran was slammed straight down to the bottom underwater.

Duran, holding his breath, widened his eyes and looked at Chen Xia blocking his path.

Whooom-!

Chen Xia used water aura.

Crush-!

Then tremendous water pressure struck Duran.

This place was underwater.

It was literally like Chen Xia’s stronghold, where she handled water aura.

Stagger-!

Duran’s knees wavered.

The green light of the bracelet indicating his life instantly changed to orange.

‘Right.’

Duran’s eyes flashed.

‘I’ll defeat you… and go fight Leo Flobe.’

Crackle-!

Sparks flew from Duran’s body.

***

-Gasp!

When Leo grabbed the reins, Ati screamed.

“Why?”

-To think that I, who have been contracted with the Rodren Imperial House for generations, would follow my master’s orders in front of so many people…

“There’s probably no one here who would recognize you as Rodren’s Pegasus, right?”

Even now, Ati was wrapped in pure white lightning.

She was literally a Pegasus in battle stance.

Because of the lightning, her detailed appearance couldn’t be seen, so probably only Shasha, who knew about the contract relationship, would be able to recognize Ati.

-That’s what makes it good. Ehehehehe!

Leo irritably yanked the reins of Ati, who was trembling with perverted laughter.

-Ahng~! I don’t like it rough~

Ati muttered in a coquettish voice.

Ignoring such Ati, Leo charged toward the four people with an expressionless face.

Whoosh-!

Woreden and Chelsea blocked the path of the two.

Crackle-!

As Leo raised his hand, the Pegasus’s lightning gathered at his fingertips.

Leo’s eyes flashed as he shot lightning toward Chelsea.

Flash-! Crash!

Woreden blocked Chelsea’s front.

Chelsea deployed her mana and shouted.

“Wind Break!”

Crash!

The activation of Wind Break, one of Chelsea’s signature spells.

In addition, Chelsea began chanting at tremendous speed.

Accordingly, Wind Break began splitting at incredible speed, and soon hundreds of Wind Breaks were created.

Leo tracked the wind’s trajectory with his eyes while pulling Ati’s reins.

Whoosh! Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

Chelsea gritted her teeth watching Leo charge while dodging all the dense wind barriers like a net.

Whoosh-!

Then the Wind Wyvern blocked Leo’s path.

“What an honor! To be able to engage in aerial combat with a Pegasus!”

Eliza shouted sharply and swung her whip.

Whip-! Crack-!

Leo caught the whip.

“Kuk!”

Eliza gritted her teeth seeing Leo easily catch the whip that wasn’t just a simple whip but one imbued with a magical beast’s power.

-I wanted to get hit by the whip!

Ignoring Ati’s sigh, Leo put strength into pulling.

“Kyaa?!”

“You’re always so haughty, but you can make cute screams too?”

“Are you making fun of me right now!”

Sparks flew from Eliza’s eyes as her face turned bright red.

Eliza released the whip and attempted to body slam Leo using the Wind Wyvern.

Crash! Crackle!

-Oh my, treating me so roughly. That’s my type.

Ati laughed as if amused and bucked.

Leo smirked and charged at Eliza using Ati.

Crash-!

Eliza, bounced off the Wind Wyvern, fell straight to the ground.

Chelsea quickly flew to Eliza and caught her in a princess carry.

“Why do I have to carry you like this!”

“Kuk! I don’t like being in such a humiliating position with someone as tiny as you either!”

“Who are you calling tiny! I’ll just drop you!”

Leo raised his hand watching the two bickering and shouting.

“You two get along well.”

Crackle-!

Just as Leo raised his hand to shoot Pegasus lightning at the two.

Whoosh! Crash!

Wind blew around Leo.

‘…Avad?’

Leo’s eyes twitched.

The magic Avad deployed was Wind Prison.

It was magic that trapped the target inside a prison.

Literally powerful magic that completely cut off the outside from the inside.

Rumble-!

Leo looked up.

A giant boulder began forming in the void.

‘Progenitor of the Earth.’

It was none other than Woreden, who had taken Leo’s attack earlier.

He was summoning Titaum from outside the Wind Prison.

Crash-!

Leo looked down.

Eliza, who had summoned Delpinus from the water, was looking up at Leo.

Finally, Leo’s gaze turned to Cal.

“You anticipated this far.”

Leo curled up the corner of his mouth and looked at Chelsea.

Chelsea, standing before Leo, gripped her staff tightly with a tense face.

“You’re thinking of summoning the Progenitor of the Earth to create the heaviest pile of rocks and crush me flat?”

“…That’s right, Leo.”

“The moment the Wind Prison is released, to prevent me from escaping, Eliza’s role seems to be using water to hold me down.”

Leo looked at Avad.

“The problem is that while Wind Prison has powerful binding force, the caster must be inside the prison. The caster can’t do anything while casting the spell. And there’s the disadvantage of not being able to receive external support.”

Leo grinned.

“You’re planning to block me all by yourself?”

“…That’s right.”

Leo nodded watching Chelsea answer while breaking out in cold sweat.

“You know it’s impossible, right?”

“The person I admire is.”

Chelsea looked straight at Leo.

“Someone who accomplishes impossible things.”

Whoosh-!

Chelsea’s wind blew.

“Just admiring isn’t enough.”

“…”

“Now I want to walk the same path, so.”

Chelsea smiled.

“I’ll surpass my limits and accomplish the impossible.”
