Chapter 102
Final Match .
Lux and the “Dragon Knight” were already on the arena facing each other .
Lux’s body was still enveloped by light, and if one looked carefully, they would notice that the light flickered in concert to Lux’s breathing as he took a deep breath .
“Suu, haa, suuu, haaa” (Lux)
I could almost hear Lux’s breathing .
Of course I could hear him, for I was the “Dragon Knight” now .
After the second semi final match, the tournant entered a short break to allow “Dragon Knight” to recuperate a little .
Ayla took that chance to switch places with , and thus it was decided that I would be the one fighting in the finals .
Why did I beco the “Dragon Knight” instead?
It was because of the damage that Ayla had sustained .
The dragon scales couldn’t prevent the impact from hurting Ayla’s body, but it was also thanks to it that she hadn’t suffered more injuries than she had now .
The victory against the demon just now was a narrow one .
To be honest, I actually thought to give up on the final match . Since even if we lost here, we would still get the second place reward .
I didn’t need the holy sword in the first place, so it was not a loss to .
“I-I can still, fight . “Dragon Knight” won’t back off from a battle no matter the situation . ” (Ayla)
That was probably Ayla’s acting as a “Dragon Knight”, I thought to myself .
You still cared about keeping your act now?
“…don’t be discouraged from watching the real battle . ” (Hibiki)
“I won’t, my master will always be the coolest to . ” (Ayla)
To that end, I could only tell Ayla that it couldn’t be helped .
I decided to have a little fun by having a rematch against Lux .
“Let’s do our best, ‘Dragon Knight’ . ” (Lux)
Since I was afraid that my identity would be known if I said anything, I remained silent under the guise of the armor .
So I simply nodded my head in affirmation .
『Alright then, we are finally at the final match . Honestly, I feel it’s almost like witnessing heroes from mythology about to face off . 』(Comntator) 『I concur, both seem to have the abilities and prowess suitable to beco a hero . 』 (comntator)
The referee signalled the beginning of the match and promptly retreated from the arena .
Lux didn’t carry a sword this ti since he couldn’t wield one while under his current state .
The sword would’ve disintegrated if he tried to wield it .
Because of that, Lux took a karate-like stance instead .
As for , I held out the star sword and let the endless supply of magic power flow inside my whole body .
On my left hand was another sword .
I didn’t have the courage to use star sword to attack Lux with him still enveloped in his “Fierce Zone”, and so I decided to bring a regular iron sword as well .
I circulate as much magic power as possible to the iron sword .
From our previous match, I found out that I could prevent instantaneous disintegration from direct contact by doing this .
I could’ve just coated my sword with fire like before, but I was afraid that would give out my identity .
I should imitate Ayla’s “Dragon Knight” as much as possible .
In short…
“As fast as Ayla!!” (Hibiki)
I asked Ruby to cooperate, adding more montum to my feet as I kicked the ground .
It beca a boost of mobility for .
Even when I slashed my sword sideways, Ruby helped by increasing the speed in which I twisted my waist .
In such a blinding speed, the sword clashed with the light enveloping Lux’s body, but was still deflected .
Even so, the blade was still intact . The magic power coating it was no longer there anymore though .
“It’s fast, that attack just now . ” (Lux)
That attack earlier should’ve been able to reach Lux’s body .
The light did deflect it, but I should’ve been able to nick Lux a bit if not for his firm reaction to the attack .
He had twisted his upper body to evade the sword .
I retreated back hurriedly . Ruby’s assistance just now had placed too much burden on my body .
Especially at my waist . I had to let 【Self Regeneration】 do its job first .
“Not going to attack? In that case, it’s my turn!!” (Lux)
Lux’s speed without his sword was nothing to scoff at .
Moreover, I would be put at a disadvantage if I were to fight in close quarters against him in his full body “Fierce Zone” state .
I tried to keep my distance while shooting 【Fire Magic】 with my right hand .
But for so reason, Lux evaded the fire . Even though the attack shouldn’t even be able to touch him .
He evaded, despite that he could just shrug off the attack and cause so trouble by charging in at that timing .
The reason he did so was because…
“There is a fix amount of attack that ‘Fierce Zone’ can take on?” (Hibiki)
In other words, the light would diminish the more Lux had to rely on it .
I produced fog using 【Water Magic】, and went around Lux .
“This is, fog?” (Lux)
The fog that ca in contact with Lux’s body instantly dissipated . The light reliably still showed its effect .
“No way, you had noticed!?” (Lux)
Lux panicked . So it was true . There was a limit to how many tis the light can do its trick .
“Haaaaaaーー” (Lux)
Lux quickly rushed to my position .
I also poured a lot of magic power to my sword imdiately .
His fist swept past my sword . The 【Water Magic】 that I had used to coat the sword had also disappeared .
But it was alright .
I kept using harmless water to attack the impatient Lux, whilst continuously applying an unnoticeable breeze to put pressure on the “Fierce Zone” .
And then, when the light finally waned, Lux’s face was drenched with water .
Lux had left his sword at the edge of the arena in the beginning of the match . Whether he could reach it would be up to his opponent .
And because his opponent was , he wouldn’t be able to of course .
But that was only the case if it was the regular . I was currently fighting as Ayla the “Dragon Knight” .
It won’t be a problem if I show off a bit here .
I stayed where I was and looked on as Lux retrieved his sword .
“Ahaha, what a fine fellow you are . ” (Lux)
While he took his sword, I once again coated mine with water .
I promptly attacked, but Lux wasn’t a slouch in a sword fight either .
It seed that he was still capable of using “Fierce Blade”, seeing that the magic power coating on my sword disappeared every ti our swords clashed .
The audience’s excitent was raised to the brim due to this relentless sword fight .
Our positions kept changing, sotis in a blink of an eye .
When I lost count on how many tis we had clashed, suddenly the cheering ceased .
Odd silence enveloped the previously booming stadium .
Lux seed to be aware that sothing weird had happened too, he looked extrely alard .
“What happened?” (Hibiki)
When I gave a look at the audience, I saw that all of them had fallen asleep .
