[Chapter 365 Comnts.]
[DarkSlayer: Truly an unexpected battle indeed. Truly a surprise, but a welco one.]
[Keltic_Spirit:Damm, it's been a year since this story started yet I'm still single while your students are being teased to death for entering loverhood. How depressing is life???]
[Xinhuan: What?!? Haha!]
…
Theo just let out a long sigh while saying, "Next!"
The one who got this spot was none other than Haruka. Of course, Rihito had known this order and imdiately leaped into the arena.
Rihito carefully examined Haruka while thinking, 'Javier has shown us enough information about how to deal with this battle. In this battle, it will depend on how I'm able to react against her hidden abilities.
'She must have learned one or two abilities from another world. As long as I can withstand them, I will have no trouble in stopping her shaman ability. This is what happens with other students. They are too focused on the ability from another world that they have forgotten that they need to polish their original ability.
'In the end, they are similar to Li Wei. The fundantal skills are still lacking.' Rihito thought, figuring out how to handle Haruka.
Little did he know… or more like, little did everyone know, the battle would be so quick that it took their breath away.
Haruka just stood in front of Rihito.
Rihito squinted his eyes before choosing to provoke Haruka. "Your parents are missing you, Haruka Kimura. Why don't you go back to your family? It seems there is a misunderstanding between you."
Haruka gritted her teeth. She said, "I don't need you to tell about my family matters."
Rihito wanted to say another thing, but as if attempting to silence him, Haruka said, "We'll fight just like this. I'm ready, Teacher."
Rihito was happy, seeing Haruka was losing her mind. This would make his plan go even more smoothly.
Theo checked both sides first before saying, "Since both parties are ready, the match now begins!"
Haruka's expression turned solemn as she took out a talisman from her pocket. Rihito did the sa thing while examining the talisman on her hand.
To his surprise, he suddenly sensed a presence behind Haruka.
As if to prevent him from thinking, Haruka suddenly leaped forward.
'Huh? A close combat? This is not how we fight as shamans. We don't even use purification weapons. This is a battle of talisman and exorcist technique…' Rihito frowned. He was prepared to hit the presence behind Haruka first.
Instead of using her talisman, Haruka actually tossed it up.
"!!!" Rihito widened his eyes in shock because a woman manifested out of thin air. "Familiar?!"
Rihito imdiately tossed the talisman forward. The tip of his finger released a golden light as he drew a star in the air. "Begone!"
The talisman ford a huge sphere, trying to isolate Haruka's familiar. The star symbol he drew earlier beca a seal that prevented her from escaping.
The familiar activated the lightning talisman, but unsurprisingly, it wasn't destroyed. In fact, the lightning talisman didn't even have a scratch on it.
"That's surprising. To think there is a familiar who can use a talisman. Maybe it knows the exorcism technique as well. But without that familiar, you can't do anything else!" Rihito provoked her further while taking out two talismans.
Haruka remained silent. She took out another talisman and tossed it forward. In response, Rihito threw his talismans that suddenly ford vines and fire.
To his surprise, Haruka's talisman just went straight to the fiery vine, which ended up getting burned for nothing.
"Huh?" Rihito was confused. 'What is she trying to do? A close combat? From which world is that ability? There are the cultivation world, knight world, and mythical world…'
Rihito was observing every single detail of her movent, including the sudden jump into the air. A sword suddenly appeared out of nowhere, which confird his suspicion. 'The cultivation world!'
Rihito wanted to prepare things against Haruka's cultivation technique, but Haruka once again confused him by using another shaman technique.
"Possession."
All of a sudden, her hair turned white as the sharpness of her gaze even provoked Javier into standing.
Knight links started to erge on her skin.
'No. The cultivation world is just a show. The real ability is the Knight Link! Is she going to overwhelm with speed? But she is a fool. If that's the case, she shouldn't have jumped!' Rihito thought Haruka couldn't avoid him in the air.
Hence, he tossed another talisman, turning it into a lightning bolt.
"Hmph. Not good enough!" The Sword King harrumphed.
He struck the lightning itself and split it into two until he landed on the ground.
"!!!" Rihito was startled that a normal sword could actually destroy his lightning. Even though it ca from a talisman, it was still considered a high-level talisman.
Yet the sword cut it cleanly.
Only Javier could probably see through the essence of the swordsmanship.
"This is… the sword that cuts everything. Impossible. There was only one person in the entire knight realm who created and used this swordsmanship. It was the Sword King himself!" Javier gasped.
Rihito jumped back, trying to use another talisman. But as he originally expected, Haruka intended to end this battle by overwhelming him with her speed.
Hence, she leaped at the fastest speed, catching up to him and leaving behind several slashes. It was smooth and precise that all the slashes suddenly hit Rihito's clothes, as well as the talisman.
The talisman was cut into several pieces while the clothes were ripped apart, leaving behind the speechless Rihito.
"Thank you for your guidance," said Haruka as her hair turned back to normal.
Everyone couldn't help but gasp, not understanding what they had just seen.
"Impossible. Did she just use the swordsmanship that only the Sword King could use? He was supposed to die a few hundred years ago. More importantly, her mastery was so high it was as if the Sword King himself had reincarnated. How could she…" Javier pointed at Haruka as if she were a monster.
Victoria thought for a mont. "Ah. Now that I think about it, Haruka went to the Sword King's tomb in your world not long ago, alone with Teacher Theo, like private guidance as a reward for sothing."
Javier looked at Victoria in shock before sothing clicked in his mind. For so reason, slapping Theo's na on the reasoning just made everything make perfect sense.
"I see…"
