Man is infinite, and his ambition is to slay the dragon

It didn't take Ziggy long to get back to the hotel.

Although he could teleport back via the Crainhild, they were busy with other things over there. In addition, Sieg also wanted to practice wind magic, so he basically maintained the use of wind magic all day today.

This is also thanks to his excellent magic power and magic recovery speed.

After returning to his room through the window of his room riding on the wind, Sieg was just about to take a bath -

"Dong dong dong~~~"

There was a knock on the door.

It's almost eight o'clock in the evening now. Who would come to see him at this time...

"Who?"

As he spoke, he walked to the door and opened it. Before Zieg could see clearly who was outside the door, the sound of something being knocked over was suddenly heard.

Then--

"Wow! Bloody Da Vinci! You're not going to die from just a hit like that, are you?!"

It was Rina Kazematsu's voice.

Moreover......

"What are you three doing here looking for me so late at night?"

Sieg looked at the three people outside the door - Rina Kazematsu, Charlotte Corday, and a blonde girl whose figure looked even more explosive than Stella's. She was wearing only a pair of jeans and a paint-covered apron. There was no clothing visible under the apron.

And this last person was now lying on his back with his head on the ground, his legs up in the air and bleeding from his nose.

"Oh! You're here, the Beast King of Divine Flame!"

Seeing Sieg coming out, Rinna Kazematsu also put the girl at her feet aside: "For our grand cause and the long-cherished wish that has been waiting for a thousand years! I came to you to hold a meeting to decide the fate of the world!"

"My lady means: [Regarding the upcoming Seven Star Sword Festival, there are some things I want to discuss with you]."

Charlotte translated Rina Kazematsu's words faithfully.

After a moment of silence, Zig put his head back and said, "No discussion. Goodbye, good night."

"Eh?"

"Wait--"

Rina Kazematsu was stunned, and before Sieg closed the door completely, the blonde girl lying on the ground suddenly jumped up and stuck her hands into the crack of the door: "Before that, you have to be a model for me first, oooo——!"

click!

Accompanied by a crisp sound, the blonde girl's body suddenly twitched violently, and then she fell in front of the door like a zombie.

Seeing this, Sieg thought in silence for a while, then closed the door even harder.

"Wait a moment! The Beast King of Divine Flame! Sarah will die if she continues like this!"

98. Get out of my room

A little while later, in Zig's room.

Looking at the blonde girl lying on his bed and Rinna Kazematsu who was already sitting upright, Sieg leaned against the window and said, "So, why did you come to see me so late at night?"

"Hmm, I didn't expect——"

"Ms. Charlotte, please go ahead and say it. I feel like Kazematsu-san is going to say a bunch of things I can't understand."

Before Rina Kazematsuri could speak, Sieg interrupted and designated someone to explain to him, while Charlotte bowed slightly: "I understand. Then, young lady, please allow me to go beyond the limit."

"Well! Then I'll leave it to you, Charlotte - my most trusted black right arm!"

"Yes!"

After responding to her master with a very spirited response, Charlotte showed an even more excited expression than before: "Well, let me explain it to you, Mr. Sieg. The young lady and Ms. Sarah came here mainly to discuss the matter of the Seven Star Sword Festival with you."

"And...nude...models..."

The girl lying on the bed added in a tone that sounded quite painful.

Sieg recognized her, even though they had never actually spoken, but she was undoubtedly also a member of Akatsuki Academy, her name was [Sarah Labdlily], and she was originally a representative of Lucun Academy, and was actually one of the first-year representatives of Akatsuki Academy.

At the same time, she is also a world-class painter with the alias "Mario Rosso". One of her paintings can be auctioned for a sky-high price of 1.4 billion US dollars. Around the world, anyone who has a little knowledge of the painting industry will definitely know her as a master.

But basically no one knows that she is actually a member of the rebel army.

It wasn't the first time that Sieg met her. He had seen her before when they were working together with Akatsuki Academy, but this was the first time they actually spoke to each other.

"Let me be a model?"

“Yes, that’s right…”

Sarah looked up at Zieg with great effort: "Please... take off your clothes... now... let me copy you."

"...Generally speaking, it's better to refuse such a request, right?"

Sieg knew that his common sense was somewhat different from that of ordinary people, but even he knew that he couldn't just agree to someone's request to take off their clothes. That would be no different from being a pervert.

"Besides, you want me to be a model, right? Do I need to take off my clothes?"

"Yes! I want to draw your unreserved figure!"

Shab found strength from nowhere, but she straightened her upper body, which was more magnificent than any other person that Zigg had ever seen. "Your body is undoubtedly the epitome of [Death-ridden]... Just like the Uncrowned Sword King, it is a very suitable model... Please, I will pay. I can even pay $100,000 an hour."

"...We'll talk about this later. Let's get down to business first."

Sieg looked at Charlotte and said, "What happened to the Seven Star Sword Festival? We all advanced to the next round. Isn't that good?"

"Yes. According to Mr. Yueying, it's a good debut, but our luck is bad, and there will be internal friction no matter what."

Just as Charlotte said, although all of them advanced to the second round, Xiao Academy's luck in the draw was really bad.

In the second round, Rinna Kazematsu, who is in Group B, will have a civil war with Yui Tadara, and both sides will definitely eliminate one person. Reizumi Hiraga, who is also in Group B, will fight against Stella tomorrow, and there is a high possibility that she will be defeated.

On the other hand, Group C, where Shabu is located, has Ikki Kurogane and one of the top eight players in last year's Seven Stars Sword Festival. Even if Nagi Arisuin and Amane Shinomiya of Group D successfully advance, a civil war will start in the third round.

Only Sieg was lucky enough that he didn't encounter anyone from Akatsuki Academy in the first three rounds.

"After analyzing the schedule again, Mr. Yueying gave us a new instruction - if we have to play against you after this, we will give up and send you to the finals. After all, the earliest we can play against you is the semifinals."

"And if we are wiped out before that, please inherit our legacy and win the final victory."

Charlotte said so.

Ziggy raised an eyebrow, "Is that the case? Why didn't you just send me a message? Why did you come all the way to find me?"

"This is mainly because of Miss Shabu's matter. Miss Shabu said that she wanted to see your body with her own eyes no matter what. However, Miss Shabu has not exercised for many years, so her physical fitness is very poor. If she exerts a little force, she may break a bone. So please be gentle with her."

"Eh? What do you mean?"

"That's what it means."

Having said that, Charlotte picked up Rina Kazematsu, stood up and left the room directly. Her movements were so quick and decisive that even Sieg was stunned.

After taking a look at Shabu who was still lying on the bed, Sieg immediately rushed to the door: "Hey! Don't leave her here with me! Take her back!"

Although they shouted, Rina Kazematsu and Charlotte were no longer outside the door - it seemed that they really intended to leave Shabu with Sieg.

"Tsk... you just know how to cause trouble for me, one by one."

After closing the door, Sieg returned to the bed and turned Shab over rudely.

"pain!"

The drastic movement made Shab scream immediately, and at the same time, a huge wave of energy surged in her chest, causing Sieg's gaze to drift uncontrollably for a moment.

However, Sieg, who didn't care much about this, didn't linger on the fruit, but patted Shabu's face and said, "What about you? What do you want me to be your model for? Draw a picture for me?"

"Do not."

Shab shook her head. "I wanted to learn from your image and complete a painting based on you - [Messiah] - a long time ago, I have been working on a painting depicting the Savior, but I have changed the image of the Savior many times and I am still not satisfied."

"So you want me to be the prototype? I don't think I'm suitable to be a savior. By the way, you mentioned Black Iron just now?"

"Well, I went to look for him, but he escaped. Damn it." Shab's face showed annoyance. "You and him combined can obviously create the perfect Messiah... But I will compete with him later, and then I will catch him. You are more important now."

Grabbing Zig's arm, Shab pleaded in a serious tone, "Now, take off your clothes, and then help me up to paint. It doesn't matter how much it costs. Remember to take off your underwear, too."

"...You get out of my room right now."

"I do not!"

99. The second round begins

Seven Stars Swords Festival, second day of competition.

On the stage of Wangan Dome.

【Dear audience! Sorry to have kept you waiting! 】

[The first match of the second round of Group A of the Seven Stars Swordsmanship Festival is about to begin! ]

[The two sides in the battle are the 'Flame Beast', Siegfried, who defeated the strongest Raikiri of Pojun Academy with an overwhelming advantage yesterday! And the 'Scarlet Lady', who is also from Pojun Academy and is said to be second only to Raikiri in strength, the 'Kudehara Kanata'! 】

[Next! Please invite both players to enter the venue! ]

Following the commentator's announcement, all the lights in the venue suddenly turned to the red gate, and Sieg, who had been preparing here for a long time, immediately walked out.

only......

[Ouch? Did Zigg come out yawning? He looks very tired! Did he not get enough rest last night? I hope it won't affect his next game!]

(That stinky commentator...I'll nerf him later.)

Standing on the stage, Zigg glared fiercely at the commentary booth not far away, then yawned.

He was indeed very tired now, and he did not sleep well yesterday - in fact, he did not sleep all night.

Generally speaking, not sleeping for one night is not a problem for him at all. Although I can't say that he can stay up all night for several days and nights, not sleeping for three days and three nights is not a problem for him.

But last night was not an ordinary night.

(That guy Shubu... is just a pervert, right?)

Last night, after Shab requested him several times, Sieg finally couldn't help but take her back to her own room. But when he just returned to his room, he saw Shab already sitting on his bed. She even had a blank canvas and paint ready in the room, as if she was waiting for him, the model, to come.

She had just been pushed back to her own room by Sieg! But in less than two minutes, she was back in his room before Sieg!

According to what she said, it seemed that there was a portal in her room that led directly to his room... What the hell!

Shab's ability is basically of the conceptual interference type. She can draw all kinds of things through her brush-shaped inherent spiritual equipment - she clearly drew a portal directly!

After that, Sieg played hide-and-seek with her the whole night. Although Shab's physical strength was extremely poor and she would be exhausted after a short pull, her magic power was A-level. Even if she was temporarily pinned down, she would be able to break free after a while.

Even at the end, Sieg hung her on the street lamp and went back to his room to sleep. But when he was about to fall asleep, he found that Shab had sneaked into his room again and was about to take off his clothes while he was sleeping!

The result was that Sieg hadn't been able to get a good rest the entire night, and he was extremely mentally exhausted, and now he was extremely sleepy.

(I should finish this match early and go back to sleep... Shabu's match is in the afternoon, and I can still sleep for seven or eight hours before she comes to harass me.)

Thinking of this, Sieg looked straight ahead of him. While he was daydreaming, his opponent of this round walked out of the blue gate.

"Hello, classmate Zig."

The girl, who was sitting under a gorgeous parasol and wearing a pure white dress, smiled and said, "Is this the first time we've spoken alone?"

"Well, hello, Accountant Guideyuan."

Zig nodded at her: "Let's both finish quickly. I'm so sleepy now and want to go back to sleep."

"You seem to be sure of your victory."

"Yes. I don't mean to look down on you. I'm just being realistic. I don't want to send the student council president to the hospital yesterday and then send the accountant to the hospital today. If I do that, I will be too embarrassed to go back to Pojun Academy."

Zieger's schedule is really a coincidence.

The first match was against the student council president of Pojun Academy, and the second match was against the student council accountant of Pojun Academy. If everything went well, the opponent in the fourth match - the semi-finals - would be Stella, and as for the opponent in the fifth match - the finals - Sieg had already assumed that it would be Kurogane Ikki.
