Stella screamed almost instinctively.

She suddenly looked at Toudou Touka and saw his face, pale with fear, and a deeper sense of powerlessness welled up inside her.

This man used the cruelest method to bind her and Senior Dao Hua together.

Her resistance and her laziness will directly affect another person.

"I understand……"

Stella closed her eyes, her long eyelashes trembling.

When she opened her eyes again, it was with an almost insane resolve.

She wants revenge!

But not now.

Now, what she has to do is satisfy this devil's demands.

"Aaaaaaahh ...

"53 Book Club"

Stella let out a mournful roar, squeezing out the last bit of magic power from her body.

"【Burning Heaven and Earth Dragon King Flame】!"

A flame, larger and hotter than ever before, erupted from her body!

The ground of the entire training ground cracked inch by inch under the high temperature, and the defensive barrier emitted a humming sound as it struggled to bear the weight.

The crimson sea of ​​fire, like a roaring dragon, opened its blood-red maw and devoured Lynn!

This was her final, desperate gamble!

She even hoped that this blow would burn that man, along with herself, to ashes!

However, faced with this cataclysmic scene...

Lynn simply raised her right hand slowly.

He spread his five fingers, his gesture as casual as if he were shooing away a fly.

next moment.

The scene that brought Stella to tears played out once again.

The raging sea of ​​fire instantly became docile the moment it touched his palm.

The massive torrent of flames was forcibly compressed and twisted by an invisible force, eventually converging into a thin beam of crimson light, which Lynn casually swallowed.

【Ding! 】

[Fire Dragon Slayer Magic Proficiency Increased!]

Current proficiency level: 60%

A system notification sounded in Lynn's mind.

"Pfft."

Stella, whose magic was completely exhausted, could no longer hold on and her legs gave way, causing her to kneel on the ground.

Her consciousness was beginning to blur, and her vision was completely dark.

Lynn walked slowly to her and looked down at her.

He crouched down, reached out, pinched her chin, and forced her to lift her head.

Looking at that tired, pretty face, Lynn's lips curled into a faint smile.

"The quality of the flame is good."

His voice, like the whisper of a demon, clearly reached Stella's ears.

"The quantity is too small."

"Try harder next time."

This sentence became the final straw that broke Stella's spirit.

The light in her eyes was completely extinguished.

His body tilted to one side, and he completely lost consciousness.

Lynn released her grip, letting her soft body fall onto the scalding ground.

He stood up and gave a new order to Toudou Touka, who was already stunned on the sidelines.

“Take her back.”

"Yes... Master."

Dongtang Daohua responded tremblingly, then ran over quickly and, with all his might, lifted the unconscious Stella up and staggered toward the exit.

Lynn followed behind them, a faint smile on her face.

This feeling of crushing the pride of a genius bit by bit and then reshaping it.

Indeed, it's very interesting.

into the night.

Special dormitory building, Room 3, Building A.

The living room lights were dimly lit, leaving only a single, yellowish floor lamp.

A faint smell of ointment filled the air.

Stella lay on her bed, staring blankly at the ceiling.

Physical exhaustion is far less devastating than mental trauma.

She felt like an empty shell, devoid of any soul, with no strength to even move a finger.

The aftereffects of her depleted magic left her feeling weak all over and with a splitting headache.

But she dared not sleep.

As soon as I close my eyes, those images replay repeatedly in my mind.

Soft conversation could be heard coming from the living room.

Stella subconsciously held her breath and listened intently.

"Master, is the massage pressure okay?"

It was Toudou Touka's voice, carrying a cautious, ingratiating tone.

Stella's body stiffened.

Slowly, using all her strength, she turned her head toward the crack in the door.

Through that gap, she saw a scene she couldn't understand.

On the sofa in the living room, Lynn was leaning back with her eyes closed, looking quite content.

Behind him, Toudou Touka, the student council president who was usually dashing and admired by everyone, was kneeling on the carpet behind the sofa.

Her hands were massaging Lynn's shoulders and neck with an extremely professional and skilled technique.

That posture was intimate and submissive.

Like a real maid, serving her master.

When will the Seven Star Swordsmanship Festival selection trials begin?

Lynn asked;

"Yes, Master, it will be next week."

While giving the massage, Toudou Touka answered respectfully.

"The school council will select six representative players based on the existing ranking battle points."

"With your and Stella's current A-level rating, you only need to participate in a few more ranking battles and get enough points to secure your qualification."

"Ah."

Lynn responded.

Dongtang Daohua hesitated for a moment, but still spoke up to remind him:

"However, Master, the selection process was not without its challenges."

"You need to be especially careful around one person."

173. It wasn't done in bed.

Should we be wary of someone else?

"Oh?"

Lynn finally opened her eyes, a hint of interest flashing in them.

Toudou Touka's voice unconsciously lowered a few notches, and even trembled slightly.

“A-rank knight, ‘Hunter’, Kirihara Shizuya.”

"Grade A, how does it compare to Stella?"

Lynn's tone carried a hint of disdain.

"Master, please don't underestimate him!"

Toudou Touka carefully reminded him;

"His unique spirit armor, [Hunter's Forest], is one of the most top-tier assassination abilities in history!"

She stopped massaging.

"Once the [Hunter's Forest] is activated, he can blend into the surrounding environment within a designated area, achieving perfect invisibility. Silent, invisible, and without a trace. You simply cannot perceive his presence."

"This year, at least three strong A-class rider candidates inexplicably lost to him in the selection process."

"They didn't even know how they lost until the very end."

"This person is extremely cunning and prefers to deliver a fatal blow from behind when his opponent is most relaxed."

"A mouse that can turn invisible?"

Lynn's lips curled back into that playful smile.

"That's interesting."

His reaction made Todoka's heart tighten. He wanted to say something more, but Lynn raised his hand to stop him.

"I see."

"continue."

"……Yes."

Dongtang Daohua dared not say anything more and resumed massaging him.

Inside the room, Stella heard everything clearly.

Kirihara Shizuya...

She had heard of this name before.

He is a dangerous person who lurks in the shadows like a venomous snake.

That bastard actually wants to participate in the selection competition?

Will he meet Kirihara Shizuya?

Can his abnormal physical abilities withstand a sneak attack from the shadows?

An absurd thought uncontrollably popped into Stella's mind.

She was actually... a tiny bit worried about that devil?

Do not!

impossible!

Stella shook her head violently, trying to shake the terrible thought out of her mind.
