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

On the stage of the second training ground closest to the cafeteria—

"I am really impressed by you guys."

Standing at the edge, Shinguji Kurono, who was called over by a phone call, had a few crosses on his forehead: "Can't you guys just give me some peace of mind?"

"Hahaha~~~Don't say that, Xiaohei." Xijing Ningyin, who came over to join in the fun, laughed, "Daohua, this is also for your performance. It's okay to understand a little bit~~~What's more, it's rare to see the little guy holding back in his fighting. Maybe this can be used as evidence to convince those old guys in the branch?"

The main reason why the Japanese branch does not intend to allow Sieg to participate in the Seven Stars Sword Festival is because of the various bad deeds Sieg has committed and his identity as a demon, but if he can prove that he has the ability to fight with restrained strength, perhaps he can really get the qualification to participate.

(It can be used as evidence of a ghost, that's not the problem, okay?)

Shinguji Kurono rolled his eyes helplessly.

Not far away, Sieg and Dongtang Daohua, who were facing each other, had also made preparations - having said that, Sieg actually acted quite naturally, while Dongtang Daohua, on the other hand, had already produced his spiritual outfit.

Generally speaking, the spiritual outfit of a swordsman is simply a weapon, without any additional props. For example, Stella's great sword has nothing else besides the great sword itself. However, Toudou Touka's spiritual outfit, in addition to the Japanese sword itself, also comes with a scabbard.

——【Family Heirloom Sword: Ming Shen】

Zigg remembered how it was described in the news.

"Then let me reiterate the rules."

Shinguji Kurono said.

"Basically, there are no restrictions, but Sieg is not allowed to use Dragon Flash. At the same time, as long as one side admits defeat, the simulation battle will be over. Is that ok?"

Zig: “Of course.”

Dongtang Daohua: "I'm fine."

"So--"

Shinguji Kurono waved his hand to signal the start.

And just before the next moment arrives——

“Shhhhhhhh!”

Lightning suddenly exploded on the stage!

Dongtang Daohua is a lightning sorcerer, and her magic control level is B. She can use electric current to slightly stimulate the body and activate the body's potential to the maximum extent. Combined with the increase brought by magic, her short-term explosive power can be compared with Stella, whose magic power is far superior to hers.

It was only a distance of less than a hundred meters, and Dongtang Daohua was able to cross it in an instant.

Therefore, in just a blink of an eye, the distance between Dongtang Daohua and Sieg had been shortened to the point where both of them could touch each other.

“Bilibili————!”

Thunder exploded on Dongtang Daohua's favorite sword!

[Raikiri] - The essence of this move is a swift sword-drawing slash. Through the lightning power, the scabbard and blade at the waist generate a strong magnetic field, and finally the blade is ejected from the scabbard. Therefore, the sword swung by drawing the sword has a speed and power of another dimension, and is even powerful enough to cut through falling lightning.

It can be called a super-electromagnetic sword-drawing technique.

So far, Raikiri has never been cracked. Even last year's Seven-Star Sword King relied on his spiritual outfit as a spear and attacked outside of Raikiri's range, avoiding Raikiri from beginning to end.

Therefore, Toudou Touka's [Raikiri] has always been regarded as a [sure kill] at crossing distance.

however--

(No hiding? No defense at all?)

Although Raikiri was about to be unsheathed, Sieg still stood there defenseless, as if he was going to use his body to withstand Raikiri.

If this goes on, Raikiri will kill him directly!

Toudou Touka subconsciously wanted to stop her movements, but she had already unsheathed the Mingshen sword - the characteristics of Raikiri meant that this move could not be stopped halfway.

“Puff——!”

Under Toudou Touka's wide-open, terrified eyes, Ming Shen's blade slashed directly into Sieg's waist!

But it was at this moment——

"Boom!"

A punch with almost no power landed on Toudou Touka's chest. At the same time, Ming Shen's sword was tightly grasped by a hand that was raised at some point.

Dongtang Daohua looked up at Qige in surprise.

And Sieg just pulled the stopped blade out of his body with a calm face: "Student Council President, I don't know any martial arts, nor any serious fighting methods, so if you want me to teach you, then I don't know how to teach you at all."

"But if it's a real battle where your life is at stake, this is all I can teach you - win even if it costs you your life."

48. An old friend from a foreign country

Dongtang Daohua's thoughts were unable to react for a moment.

After Sieg finished speaking, she realized it belatedly and asked in fear: "Student Sieg! Your waist - eh?"

Sieg's waist, which should have been torn apart by Narukami, now looks completely intact, as if it had never been torn at all.

Dongtang Daohua was suddenly filled with disbelief!

Shinguji Kurono and Saikyo Ningyin, who were standing aside and watching, were also amazed.

"Xiao Hei, that just now..."

"At least it's definitely not a transcendental awakening. He is still a complete human being, but this regeneration ability..."

Shinguji Kurono knew that water magicians could perform healing, but Sieg was not a water magician. It took him less than two seconds to heal from being almost cut in half - what on earth was that guy's body like?

Without paying attention to their surprise, Sieg continued, "Student Council President, as you can see, my body is quite special and can regenerate quickly. To exaggerate, as long as my heart and brain are intact, I can regenerate even if I am shattered into pieces."

"This is equivalent to me carrying a regeneration capsule with me that can be effective at any time and anywhere. And as far as I know, during the Seven Stars Sword Festival, the regeneration capsule will be prepared for every game."

"This... what do you mean?!" Dongtang Daohua also understood what Zieg meant, "Relying on the support of the regeneration capsule, deliberately bearing the opponent's attack, and then taking advantage of the opponent's flaws after the attack to win with one move? But the risk of doing so is really too great."

If it was a body-strengthening ability, it would be fine, but Dongtang Daohua's ability is thunder. If he suffered too serious injuries, he might not even be able to fight back.

The Seven Stars Swordsmanship Festival was just a martial arts competition for students, and Toudou Touka didn't think it needed to be this far.

"I'm just telling you my attitude towards actual combat. It's up to you how you decide to proceed."

Zig said.

"In my opinion, the environment you live in is too peaceful. Fantasy forms, simulated battles... I have no intention of criticizing your lifestyle and social environment, but if you don't even have the awareness of exchanging your life for another's, and you keep saying that you will fight with all your might, then you will always be just half-hearted."

"Even if your arm is broken, you must kill your opponent. Even if your leg is broken, you must not stop chasing. As long as you still have a breath left, you must keep attacking until one of you and your opponent is completely dead."

"This is what a real battle is like. The Seven Stars Sword Fighting Festival is just a game."

Zieg's thoughts and attitude silenced the other four people.

No one would deny such words, after all, what he said was true, but it was also true that in this world, except for a few regions, there were few places where real battles would take place. The Seven Stars Sword Martial Arts Festival was already the largest-scale battle that students could experience.

"I won't ask the student council president to completely copy my idea. After all, it's just my personal attitude. But I will show you the ways I think can win one by one. You can learn by watching. As for whether you can learn it or not, that's your own business."

"Since you and my mortal enemy have the same abilities, I am ready to accompany you at any time."

To be honest, Sieg doesn't care about what kind of person Dongtang Daohua is like, but her special ability... Although it is far inferior to Kamui, Sieg still misses her a little to meet such a person who can use lightning on another planet.

I don’t know whether Shenwei is dead or alive now, but after all, it’s only been a year, so I think he should still be alive, right?

"...I understand, Sieg-san."

Sheathing the sword again, Dongtang Daohua got ready: "I may hurt you countless times in the future, so I'd like to say sorry to you first."

"It's just a non-fatal injury. No matter how many you throw at me, I'm fine. Besides, I'm not prepared to take all your attacks. I was just giving you a demonstration. I'll dodge next time."

"That would be perfect."

Dongtang Daohua couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when she heard that. If Sieg continued to take all the attacks, she would be under a lot of psychological pressure.

"Well, go ahead. Please advise."

“Shhhhhhhh!”

The thunder roared again.

As he quickly closed the distance with the swiftness of wind and thunder, several lightning bolts flashed around Dongtang Daohua, and about ten lightning arrows streaked through the sky. However, Sieg remained motionless, and a wall of fire suddenly rose from the ground under his feet, swallowing up all the lightning in an instant.

"There's no need to waste energy testing you. Since this is a life-and-death battle, underestimating the enemy or letting him down for a moment would be fatal. Give it your all from the start."

Blood is Fire

【Bombardment】

The moment the words fell, the light of bombardment magic lit up from Sieg's palm, shattering the wall of fire and directly crushing Dongtang Daohua!

——【Raikiri】!

“Bilibili————————!”

The super-electromagnetic sword-drawing technique makes its appearance once again, with a blade that can cut through falling lightning and instantly split the bombardment in two!

In the audience, Xijing Ningyin nonchalantly blocked the stray bullet while lying on the armrest and said with a smile: "I didn't expect Xiao Daohua to be taught a lesson unilaterally like this... What do you think, Xiaohei? I really like this idea of ​​the little guy. Maybe I can get along with him very well."

"His idea is correct, but it is not suitable for the Seven Stars Sword Fighting Festival - he never considers himself a student." Shinguji Kurono sighed, "However, it would be a good thing if Toudou could improve through training with him."

Having said that, Shinguji Kurono turned her head to look at Stella who was staring at the stage.

(The only one left is the Red Lotus Princess... I really don't know when her psychological trauma will end.)

(I hope I can catch up with the Seven Stars Sword Festival.)

--------------------------

at the same time.

Just as Sieg and Dongtang Daohua were conducting actual combat training, in an airport far away from Pojun Academy.

A woman with long silver hair quietly came into the hall from the exit dragging a suitcase.

"I've come to this country again. Although I was asked to come here by someone,... the [gravity] of fate is really convenient."

The woman took out a small piece of blood-stained ice from her pocket and rubbed it gently.

"I didn't expect that the person who broke into my house was in this country. As for the direction - is he over there?"

Through the airport window, the woman looked towards the horizon.

In terms of the general direction, she was looking at the direction of Pojun Academy.

49. Interview notice

The actual combat training between Sieg and Toudou Daohua lasted until after eight o'clock in the evening.

Except for the Raikiri that he deliberately took at the beginning, Sieg was not hit by Toudou Touka for the second time until the end. Although both were lightning, compared with Kamui's lightning, Toudou Touka's lightning was still too naive, and the only thing worth noting was its speed, and its power was much worse.

Even speed was something that Sieg, who had predictive vision, could easily avoid with a simple prediction.

On the contrary, unlike the situation when he fought with Stella, Sieg controlled his strength very well this time. It should be said that he had experience and preparation. Every time he attacked Toudou Touka, he stopped at the right time. This surprised Shinguji Kurono and Saikyo Nin who were watching the game - after the fight, only the traces of Toudou Touka's attacks were left on the training ground!

After the competition ended, Sieg, who had made an appointment with Toudou Daohua to compete with her again next time, also returned to the dormitory with Stella.

Then——

.......

“Ugh…!”

The third weekend of the new semester at Pojun College, in a small forest near the dormitory.

Looking at Stella kneeling on the ground and retching again, Sieg sighed slightly and released his hand that was holding her fingers: "Let's stop here for now, how about taking a rest?"

“Hmm…..Ugh——!”

Stella, looking embarrassed, could only nod reluctantly, and then ran directly to the pool not far away.

On a bench nearby, Kurogane Ikki, who was also taking a rest, looked at Stella's departing figure and couldn't help but sigh: "Stella is really hard-working. It's really hard for her to undergo such training every day."

"As expected of a country princess, even her training is unique." Beside Ikki, Kurogane Jushizuku commented with a smile, "However, it's embarrassing, but she actually had such a big reaction to just a touch of her finger... How deep a psychological trauma did you leave on her back then, Senior Sieg?"

Although the four of them are in the same grade, in terms of age, Sieg is one year older than the Kurogane siblings and two years older than Stella, so Kurogane Jushizuku has always called him senior. She also said that [this is also to thank the senior for helping her brother last year].
