As usual, Edward arrived at the arena early, ready to do some warm-up exercises before playing. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

However, as soon as he arrived near the arena, Edward noticed that something seemed wrong in the stands.

"How could so many people come to watch this magic showdown?" Looking at the already full stands, Edward couldn't help but frown.

This situation usually only occurs on the last day of the actual combat assessment, that is, when the first place in each grade is about to be decided. But it's only the quarterfinals, why are so many people coming to watch the game?

Edward, who was a little unsure of this, raised his eyebrows, and immediately put the matter behind him completely. Edward has always chosen to ignore the audience, after all, those people have always been just inconsequential beings in Edward's eyes.

But when Edward entered the arena, he was somewhat surprised to find that Aisha, his most important target now, was already quietly waiting in the arena.

After looking Aisha up and down, Edward's eyes narrowed: he was keenly aware that Aisha standing in the field was different from the previous battles, and had changed into a set of magic equipment that was obviously a complete set!

What's going on? According to the information the family has obtained, she must not have enough financial resources to buy new magical equipment. So this outfit ...... Is it the legacy of the Testrosa family? Or was it given to her by someone from another family?

Such a thought flashed through Edward's heart, and then Edward was completely left behind. Not only because when it comes to equipment, the magic equipment on Edward's body is not bad, but also because there is only one thought left in Edward's heart now.

Down with her! Defeat Aisha in the arena openly!

Perhaps because she heard Edward's footsteps, Aisha, who had been closing her eyes to recuperate, slowly opened her eyes. Looking at Edward walking into the arena step by step, Aisha's eyes became quite cold.

Edward, who met Aisha's eyes, hooked the corners of his mouth slightly, and then glared back fiercely with even more vicious eyes.

Before the battle began, there was already tension between the two!

It was all old fritters licking blood from the knife edge, and the mercenaries and adventurers in the stands quickly noticed that the atmosphere on the field was completely different from the previous few competitions. Judging from Aisha and Edward's rather solemn expressions, many mercenaries and adventurers knew that this would be a real battle with all their might!

Although the strength of both sides is a bit low, it may be a very interesting match!

After glancing at each other in tacit agreement with their companions, many mercenaries and adventurers put away their original appearance, directly changed into a straight face, and sat up straight.

The stands, which had been a bit chaotic, gradually fell silent because of this, and everyone was looking forward to the official start of the game.

But in the gap before the invigilator arrived, Aisha had something to ask Edward.

"Why?" Aisha asked hatefully.

"What, why?" Edward frowned in confusion.

"I say, why would you Kloster do such a thing?" Aisha gritted her teeth and shouted loudly, "Obviously! Obviously, our two families have always been allies! ”

"Tsk, you just want to ask about this kind of thing." Edward lifted his chin and replied with a disdainful expression, "Isn't that normal?" ”

"Normal? You actually say normal! What's normal with this kind of thing? Aisha's eyes turned red, but she tried to stare at Edward with her eyes wide open.

"No, I think that's normal." Edward pursed his lips, and then replied very seriously, "The creed of the Klouster family is that the law of the jungle is the strong!" ”

Before Aisha could speak, Edward held his head high and said loudly, "Death to the weak!" The strong are born! The birth of every legendary powerhouse requires countless corpses to be able to ascend to the top throne! And the purpose of the Klouster family is to cultivate generations of legendary powerhouses by devouring everything from countless weak people! Because only the existence of a legendary powerhouse is the greatest guarantee that a family can continue! ”

"And this ...... This is the policy set by the original Marquis of Kloster! ”

Speaking of this, Edward looked at Aisha with a sneer: "That's right, our two families are indeed allies!" However, while our Kloster family is thriving, your Testrosa family is constantly going downhill! And when your parents died in battle, and you were the only one left in the family who couldn't even be promoted as a formal magician, the Testrosa family obviously existed in name only. ”

"In other words, the Tytrosa family, the original magic powerhouse, has been reduced to a complete 'weakling'!" Edward, who was so uplifted, raised his right hand suddenly, and then clenched it hard, "Such a 'weak' has naturally become the target of the Klouster family, which is a 'strong'!" ”

"Bastard! Bastard bastard bastard! ”

Tears slowly slipped from the corners of her eyes, and Aisha roared hoarsely, "What kind of bastard logic is this!" Your family is really a big bastard! ”

Looking at Aisha, who was a little choked, Edward had a cold face: "Hmph! Tears are the best evidence that you are a weakling! ”

"That's right! The Klouster family is really blindsided, we didn't expect you to be promoted to an official magician! Otherwise, the game we set up for the Testrosa family would never be so simple. At this point, Edward pointed his staff at Aisha, "But that's okay! I will use my strength to prove that even if you are successfully promoted to a full-fledged magician, you are still a weakling! ”

Aisha clenched her fists violently, and at this moment, the faces of her father, mother, Principal Alice, Sister Karen, and Dio flashed through her mind one after another. She jerked the tears from her face and pointed her wand at Edward, "You're wrong! You're all wrong! The real strong are not what you say! I, Aisha of House Testrosa, will use your failures to prove that your Kloster family's creed is simply wrong! ”

The two people, who also made a declaration of victory to each other, glanced at each other, and then turned their heads away and quietly waited for the arrival of the invigilator.

Therefore, when the invigilator was late, the two spoke at the same time.

"Teacher! Can we get started? ”

"Teacher! Please announce the start of the contest! ”

The invigilator scratched the back of his head for some unknown reasons, but he still nodded and announced loudly: "Competition, start!" ”
