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

"Yeah. That's it for now. I'm still preparing lunch. See you at the Seven Stars Sword Festival later."

【it is good】

After saying this, Zieg hung up the call.

And after that——

"Kurogatsu Ikki?"

In the dining room connected to the kitchen, Edwards, dressed in home clothes, listened to the entire conversation between the two and smiled slightly: "If he really could come to you, it would definitely cause a stir. An F-class magic knight steps onto the final stage and competes with the strongest A-class student knight - I can imagine how much discussion it would cause."

"And then? Do you think you'll win?"

"I don't know."

Sieg poured the cooked food from the wok onto the plate. "After all, I have never fought against Kurogane, and I have never tried to understand his methods. Although there are countless ways to understand them, since this is the most important battle, I still hope to fulfill my promise to him in an upright manner."

"Well, that's a good idea."

Edwards smiled with satisfaction and said, "But before that, you have to get the right to compete first. It seems to be today?"

"Yes, I will go directly there after lunch. The Prime Minister has already prepared a special plane."

Today is the day for the 【Eve Festival】.

In order to allow the National Akatsuki Academy to enter the stage, all the members of Akatsuki Academy will attack the Muku Academy located in the central part of the Kinki region this afternoon. Of course, Sieg is not in the attack group. In order for him to get the right to compete, he needs to wait until Kurogane Ouma and his team complete the sabotage work and defeat all the contestants of Muku Academy before he can show up.

[The only knight who can defeat the student knight of Akatsuki Academy]

Sieg needs to reappear in front of the public in this identity after a year, and after that... disclose the fact that he is also a member of Akatsuki Academy.

"Then, our teacher-student relationship has come to an end today."

Edelweiss said.

"I taught you my swordsmanship as much as I could, and you also tried to learn my swordsmanship as much as you could. Compared to the you of more than three months ago, I think you can defeat the you of that time in an instant."

"Well, I am very grateful to the teacher for his teaching over the past three months."

Zigg placed the last dish in front of Edwards and said, "Teacher, you have helped me to reach a higher level. I will remember your kindness for the rest of my life."

"A lifetime is a bit exaggerated. I just hope you can abide by the oath between us. And as long as you still abide by it, our relationship will last forever - I will go to watch your finals later."

"Then I will use everything the teacher taught me in the finals - and after that, and before that, I will have to trouble you, teacher."

Is it hard?

Edwards looked at the boy in front of him with a complicated expression: "Aren't you the one who is really working hard, Sieg?"

"I don't think it will be hard for me. After all, what I have to do is actually the same as what I want to do."

"I'm just carrying out my own will."

86. Just leave and no one will get hurt

If we were to rank the seven knight academies, there might be some controversy about the second to seventh places, but basically no one would object to the first place.

Because that must be the location of [Wu Qu College].

Although it is a school in Japan, Muku Academy is a well-known knight academy worldwide. The reason is simple: in the annual Seven Stars Sword Festival, Muku Academy is the only academy that has had students advance to the finals for twenty consecutive years.

Even in the past five years, the award-winning stage of the Seven Star Sword and Martial Arts Festival has always been dominated by Wu Qu Academy.

Champion, runner-up, third place.

The top three have all been students of Wu Qu Academy for the past five years. Even though the strongest student knight in the country, Kurogane Ouma, did not participate in the competition, Wu Qu Academy is still the strongest in Japan.

But today, this academy that claims to be the strongest in Japan...

“Crackle…crackle…crackle…”

——It has turned into a ruin surrounded by fire.

Under the blood-red sunset, the school building of Wu Qu College, which was not inferior to Po Jun College in any way, was now covered and engulfed by thick flames. Countless black smoke rose from all over the college, and flames and thick smoke were everywhere.

The asphalt road surface on the ground also appeared cracked and broken, as if it had been kissed by some explosive at close range.

All over the campus, a large number of students and teachers who stayed behind during the summer vacation have now fainted on the ground, and only a few students are still running in the sea of ​​fire.

This scene was not caused by a natural disaster, but was caused by a group of villains who suddenly attacked Wu Qu Academy ten minutes ago.

“Haaaah…haaaah…”

The gate of Wu Qu College.

Leaning on a golden spear, a tall boy was gasping for breath, his body covered with bleeding wounds.

If anyone who watched last year's Seven Stars Swords Festival is here, they will definitely recognize who this person is - he is last year's [Seven Stars Sword King], the third-year student of Muku Academy, Yudai Moroboshi, who is known as the [Star of Naniwa], the man who stands at the top of all Japanese student knights.

However, this man who should be the king now looked extremely disheveled, his uniform was torn to pieces, his body was covered with hideous wounds, and the tip of the spear-shaped spiritual outfit [Tiger King] in his hand was completely shattered and broken.

The inherent spiritual equipment is equivalent to the soul of the swordsman. Once it is damaged or even broken, it will cause extremely serious damage to the swordsman's body and mind!

Although Moroboshi Yudai's spiritual outfit had not been completely shattered, even if only a part of it was broken, it was enough to cause a shock to his spirit that was enough to make him faint on the spot.

but--

"Why......"

Holding up his spirit, he did not let himself fall unconscious like his two companions at his feet. Moroboshi Yudai opened his eyes wide and glared at the figure standing not far away with a large sword in his hand: "Why did you do such a thing, Wang Ma!"

The man holding the fierce blade was none other than Black Iron King Horse.

Tens of minutes ago, Moroboshi Yudai and his companions, who had just finished the pre-match intensive training for the Seven Stars Sword Festival and returned on the bus with others, saw at first sight that most of the school buildings had been destroyed and the teachers and students had been knocked to the ground.

The culprit who caused this tragedy was standing right in front of them.

They called themselves the [National Akatsuki Academy], and came here to seize the right to participate in the Seven Star Sword Festival from the Wu Qu Academy. And among those people, there was Kurogane Ouma, who was originally a member of the Wu Qu Academy!

As students of Wu Qu Academy, Moroboshi Yudai and other representative team members certainly cannot turn a blind eye to the atrocities they committed!

But, it was just a dozen minutes, just a dozen minutes - all the contestants, including the runner-up and third place of last year's Seven Stars Sword Festival, were defeated unilaterally, and Moroboshi Yudai had just had the tip of the Tiger King's spear shattered by Kurogane Ouma himself!

【Why! 】

This is the only question in Zhuxing Yudai's mind at this moment.

Why would Kurogane Ouma do such a thing?

He is obviously a member of Wu Qu Academy, and he has already been confirmed to compete in the Seven Star Sword Festival, so why would he do such a thing?

"Answer me! Kurogane Ouma!"

"I don't have to answer you."

In response to Zhu Xingxiong's words, it was Kurogane Ouma's cold voice and the whistling wind: "Zhu Xing, you should have just left. If you did so, I would have given you a break out of our old friendship."

"But since you choose to resist, you should also understand that you can never be my opponent from the beginning."

"...!"

It’s hard to admit, but it’s true!

In the past ten minutes or so, the few people standing on the roof of the collapsed school building of Wu Qu Academy did not take action. The only one who took action was Kurogane Wangma, and he alone defeated all the representatives of Wu Qu Academy!

A-level - for student knights, this is a height that is unattainable no matter what!

Even the Seven-Star Sword King!

"Give up your dream of winning the championship twice in a row, Moroboshi."

【Knife-cutting Skills】

【Broken Moon Dragon Claw】

"call----------!!!"

Along with Kurogane Ouma's cold voice, the [Dragon Claw] was raised high into the sky, and countless winds wrapped around the blade of the Odachi, and in an instant it formed a storm sword that was powerful enough to ravage everything!

Looking down at Yudai Moroboshi who was already kneeling on one knee, Kurogane Ouma swung the Storm Sword in his hand coldly!

"Well--!"

The strong wind blowing in his face made Zhu Xingyu subconsciously want to raise his spear to resist!

His special ability is [Magic Devouring], and his sword-cutting skill called [Tiger Bite] can swallow any magic power. This is one of the reasons why he can be the last one standing in front of the Black Iron King Horse.

However, the tiger king's teeth had already been crushed once. Even if new teeth grew, the fate that awaited them was only -

"——Dragon Flash."

Just when the Storm Sword was about to completely cut off the Tiger King, a cold voice suddenly came from behind Zhu Xingyudai.

Immediately afterwards...

“BOOM——————————!!!”

A brilliant flash of light pierced through the storm!

The sweeping impact knocked the Black Iron King Horse back dozens of meters on the spot!

Moroboshi Yudai mustered up his last bit of energy and looked behind him, and what he saw was...

"Flame...beast...?"

"I was wondering why this area was so lively, but I didn't expect such an interesting thing to happen here?"

Holding a cloth bag in one hand and a silver sword in the other, Sieg ignored the long-defunct security equipment of Wu Qu Academy and came to Zhu Xing Yu Dai: "Are you okay? Can you still stand up?"

"Well...you...please..."

With a slightly pleading look in his eyes, Moroboshi Yudai took one last look at Sieg, then his body went limp and he collapsed directly to the ground.

[Please, save the others]

Sieg could read that meaning from that look.

After taking a look around, although he knew it would turn out like this, Sieg still sighed softly: "What a big fuss... Akatsuki Academy, is this necessary?"

"You finally came."

Returning to Sieg, Kurogane Ouma raised his Dragon Claw: "Well, as agreed - come on."

"...I just can't muster the motivation."

Throwing aside the cloth bag used for camouflage in his hand, Sieg raised his silver sword and looked at the people on the roof not far away.

"You guys come along too, it'll be easier this way."

"Or...you can just leave, so fewer people will get hurt."

87. Telekinesis and Storm

In the set [script], after Sieg arrives at Wu Qu Academy, Kurogane Ouma will symbolically fight him for a few rounds, then pretend to be defeated and retreat with the people from Akatsuki Academy. After that, it will be the turn of the rescue team arranged by Yueying Moya to appear.

They will cooperate with Sieg to package this attack as [Wu Qu Academy was attacked by Akatsuki Academy, and Sieg who was passing by bravely fought back Akatsuki Academy].

However, in this entire script, Zieg himself also has the power to modify the script at will - it can even be said that if he wants to modify the script temporarily, no one present can stop him.

That's it for now.

"You guys come together."

Looking at all the members of Akatsuki Academy in front of him, Sieg released a blazing flame-like magical wave from his whole body.

"It's too troublesome to do it one by one. Let's save each other some time."

"Eh? Can I? Can I?"

Jumping down directly from the roof of the damaged school building, a blond boy with a face as cute as a girl said with a smile: "Even if it's you, wouldn't it be too much for you to deal with seven of us at the same time?"

"Who are you? I've never seen you before."

"Ah~~~Come to think of it, I haven't introduced myself yet. I'm the first-year representative of Ju Men Academy, Tian Yin Shinomiya. This is the first time we meet, [Senior]."
