My mother's love song

"How long are you two going to keep being affectionate with each other!?"

Standing in the middle of the sunroom with her hands on her hips, Aoko announced to Rod and Arizuma who were attending class with their shoulders huddled together.

Azuma wasn't the only one who became Rod's magic teacher, Aoko was one as well.

Unlike the serious and rigorous Princess Kuonji, the heiress to the fifth magic is careless and sloppy, which makes people doubt her motivation.

Well, if it were Aoko, she would definitely not be able to become a qualified teacher.

However, as a social animal, humans are always competitive.

Watching Youzhu teaching Rod seriously every day, Qingzi felt itchy in her heart.

"So, I will teach Rhodes magic today!"

"That's not necessary." Rhodes replied.

Although Aozaki Aoko is no longer the rookie magician in "Magical Night EP1", she has only been in the Clock Tower for half a semester and there is still a gap in the level of magic between her and Yuzu.

Kuonji Yuzu is a modern witch who stands at the top of the Clock Tower, so it would be better to have her as his teacher.

"I choose Arizuma-sensei."

Rhodes said as he sniffed the faint body fragrance on Youzhu.

"Nani~~~~~"

Rhodes was immediately strangled by the neck and pulled away from Youzhu.

"You little brat, who was it that begged me to accept you as my disciple?"

"It's been more than ten days, and you never cared about me, right? It was Youzhu who taught me!"

"Leave the basic course to Azuma. The following advanced courses will be taught by me, Aozaki Aoko!"

Youzhu, who was sitting on a chair, drank her tea calmly while staring at the two people who were fighting with each other.

"Okay, let Qingzi take today's class."

Rhodes stopped playing with Qingzi and immediately agreed, "Well, since Teacher Youzhu said so."

"What's going on with this obvious differential treatment?" Qingzi was shocked.

……

……

……

The three of them came to the courtyard outside the mansion.

Until a few days ago, this was an uninhabited area covered with half-meter-high weeds.

However, after Rhodes used the Pale Knight to harvest all the life that night, this place turned into a flat grassland.

It was still very cold in the afternoon of the first month of the lunar year.

Aoko took off her coat, leaving her dynamic upper body in only a thin long-sleeved shirt.

The girl's firm breasts were tightly bound by the thin cloth, and the lace pattern of her underwear could even be vaguely seen through the white translucent cloth.

"That's enough for the theory lesson. Rhodes, let's get to the actual combat."

Aozaki Aoko's fingers were crackling, her intention was self-evident

Teach Rod a lesson through a 1 on 1 battle.

The rules are simple.

The use of weapons and ceremonial costumes is not allowed, and the competition will be a pure magic battle.

Youzhu moved the chair from the sunroom outside and sat there, silently watching the two figures, one tall and one short.

She acquiesced to Aoko's radical curriculum.

"If you want to escape back to Youzhu's arms now, it's still not too late?" Qingzi said proudly.

"Well, I accept your challenge."

The boy spoke calmly without any emotion.

"challenge?"

About five meters away from him, Qingzi frowned slightly.

In the eyes of this child, is he the underdog?

Qingzi was very clear about Rhode's strength. If it was a real life-and-death fight, she would probably not be his opponent at all.

Rhodes is the winner of the Holy Grail War, and possesses strength that his own eyes cannot even fathom.

But this and that are two different things.

Aoko knew very well the level of Rod's magic.

In a competition under these rules, I should have an overwhelming advantage.

Not getting angry at the boy's confidence, Aoko slightly raised the corners of her pretty mouth.

"Well... let me see your skills, Rhodes."

A boy and a girl standing on either side of the courtyard.

Rod, who was only as tall as his opponent's neck and had only learned magic for less than 10 days.

And Aozaki Aoko, a violent magician who has accumulated a lot of practical experience.

In their clear eyes, there was only each other.

Qingzi raised his right hand.

A blue magic circle appeared on her wrist.

On the other side, Rhodes stretched out his right index finger which was wrapped in a black curse.

This is the only basic magic he is currently good at.

An ancient curse originating from Northern Europe, the Yin Qi Bomb.

This is a spell released through the impolite act of "pointing your finger at others".

Normally it is quite weak, but if used by a highly skilled magician it can even have the power of a rifle bullet.

Rhode's situation was very simple. As a Beast, he had a good compatibility with the Yin Qi Bomb and could exert 1000% of its power.

"The loser will be responsible for washing the dishes tonight," Aoko suggested.

"No, if I lose I'll have to wash the dishes for the next week."

Rod said, "But if I win, I will sleep in Youzhu's room tonight."

Qingzi nodded grimly: "It's a deal."

"...???"

Youzhu tilted her head and typed a string of question marks: Are you guys using me as a bet right there! ?

"!"

Along with the mechanical driving sound, the magic circle on Qingzi's wrist began to rotate at high speed.

Then, a blue magic bullet cut through the air.

On the other side, Yin Qi bullets shot out from Rhodes' fingers.

The magic bullets and the curse bullets intersected with each other in silence.

The black curse was only a few inches away from reaching the girl, and the continuous stream of magic blocks hit Rhodes' feet like a rainstorm.

The two of them kept dodging each other's attacks, while choosing the right moment to release magic.

In terms of firepower alone, Aoko has an overwhelming advantage.

Her talent as a magician can only be described as above average, but she has extremely high attainments in the field of "quick reloading".

To put it simply, although Qingzi's basic attributes are average, her attack speed is exceptional.

The blue magic bullets flashed in the daylight like a group of meteors.

The difference in firepower between the two sides was like the U.S. military versus the Viet Cong, or heavy machine guns versus revolvers.

Staring at Rhodes who was busy dodging on the battlefield filled with smoke and fireworks, Youzhu couldn't help but worry for his disciple.

It has become a one-sided suppression... Whenever it comes to Aoko's battle, it always turns out like this.

Youzhu observed Rhodes' expression.

Although he was at a great disadvantage on the field, the sharpness in the boy's eyes did not diminish at all.

Could it be that Rhodes has some secret treasure that can turn defeat into victory?

Five tense minutes passed.

Aoko's parabolic blue magic bullet left countless holes in the garden.

Unlike the devastated courtyard, Rhodes was still unharmed, with only his cuffs and the corners of his clothes being burnt.

"Hmm."

Aoko's expression changed slightly.

The more you fail to achieve results in such a favorable situation, the more anxious you will become.

Even the battle-hardened Miss.Blue is no exception.

So, Aoko decided to lift the ban on fighting battles.

Although Aozaki Aoko always gives others the feeling of a self-propelled artillery, this current method of fire coverage is not actually her strongest mode.

A magician's magic is divided into many types.

For example, [Reinforcement] is used to reinforce objects and is the most basic magic.

For example, the Tohsaka family is good at [Conversion]. The Tohsaka family uses conversion magic to store magic power in gems.

For example, the [Absorption] that the Matou family excels at, which absorbs the opponent's energy and vitality, and even controls the opponent, is the prototype of the Command Spell.

For example, Einzbern is good at [Transfer] and Emiya Shirou is good at [Projection], and so on.

It is impossible for modern magicians to reach the pinnacle in all fields. They usually only have one field of expertise.

What Aozaki Aoko is good at is [Magic Power Release].

Like the familiar King Arthur, she uses her massive and fast magic power to strengthen her weapons/limbs for melee combat.

The moment the ban on fighting was lifted, Aozaki Aoko started sprinting with all her might.

Stepping hard on the ground, Aoko rushed towards the young man in the distance like a human cannonball.

Rhodes also quickly realized her intention and ejected the Yin Qi over.

Aoko smiled as she nimbly dodged the curse bullet that was hindering her movement.

You are really sharp, Rod.

He has only been exposed to magic for a few days, but he is able to perform magic battles so skillfully.

There was no doubt that Rhodes possessed extraordinary talent. Perhaps if he fought a magic battle with him again in a month, he would be completely defeated.

But I will definitely be the winner of this battle!

The magically enhanced feet instantly burst into light.

In one breath, Aoko shortened the seemingly unreachable distance between her and Rhodes by several meters.

He braked suddenly and then stepped hard on the ground with one foot.

Rhodes stood helplessly in front of her, and Qingzi could even observe his expression clearly.

At this point, Rhodes was helpless, as it should be.

But the young man was not at all panicked by Qingzi's sudden approach, he just calmly cast the curse again.

The pitch-black curse bullet flew towards the girl's face, but was shattered by Aoko Chanmitsu's right hand when it was about to hit her.

He was clearly forced into a close position, yet he remained so calm?

As expected of the guy who emerged victorious from the bloody battle of Fuyuki.
