[Isn't it a little too fast? Obviously I haven't watched it yet] Zero expressed deep regret in his heart, but when he thought about it carefully, there were so many wonderful duels behind him, and his mood was immediately relieved. top./

"I didn't expect that Leonard to be so powerful, and from the last move, it seems that he kept his hand. Karl was a little frustrated, "Cousin, if you win this game, you'll meet him later, you must beat him! ”

"Let's talk about it then, let's deal with the enemy in front of us first. It's time for me to go up, so you can reflect on it. Although you have few opponents in the royal capital at this age, there are heavens outside the sky, and there are people outside the world, so you should never be too confident in your own strength and despise your opponents. ”

With that, Ahlers walked slowly into the ring.

"The second match in the quarterfinals is Ahlers vs. Futina! Unlike the previous first match, this duel is between the swordsman and the magician, and I believe that in this match, both martial arts and magic freshmen can learn some skills that are very useful in actual combat. Now the game is officially underway!"

"Beautiful young lady, the sword has no eyes, please forgive me for being abrupt. If I hurt you, I will come to the door and apologize. ”

"Isn't that a little too early to say? It's not certain who will hurt whom. Futina raised her staff in both hands and began to chant the incantation against magic, her body glowing with a dull yellow light.

Ahlers never intended to release water, and for magicians, the process of casting spells is when they are at their most vulnerable. He planned to take advantage of this time to get close to Futina, as it would be difficult for the mage to unleash large-scale lethal magic once he was in close proximity. It was at this moment that Alys saw a smug smile on the corner of Futina's mouth.

"Rock Barrier, Change!" The earth elemental that filled the air immediately became agitated, and the earth elemental, which had already formed a rock shield, reorganized its form at a speed visible to the naked eye, turning into an extremely aggressive diamond-shaped cone thorn, scattering in the direction of Ahler's attack.

"Air Cannon!" Futina immediately cast the next spell. The level 2 wind-based magic air cannon didn't have much attack power in normal times, but at this time, this originally inconspicuous magic accelerated the spikes in flight by more than two times!

This qiē was seen by the audience.

"Earth-Wind Dual-Magician?! Lena exclaimed.

"Well, the air cannon is only a level 2 magic, but it can be used to enhance the attack power of earth-based magic, I have to say that this is a good idea. And that rock barrier is probably an original magic, and it can actually transform defense into an offensive form. Zero was surprised and thoughtful at the same time. As for how she could have understood this knowledge...... Of course, I learned it when I was in class with Lena with Ai Xue.

"I can't see anything. There was a lot of smoke and dust on the field, and Ai Xue and the others had to complain.

The smoke finally cleared, and the figures of the two on the stage gradually became clear. Ahlers held his sword in both hands, pressed to the ground, and his clothes were already in tatters, and he seemed to have given up his resistance.

"I throw in the towel. After signaling to the referee, Futina planned to leave the ring. This scene can be described as a surprise to the audience.

"Wait a minute, your rock barrier is your own magic. Ahlers cast an inquiring look at Futina.

"Yes, but it only scratches your clothes, and you don't even have a trace of blood on you. Futina was a little disappointed that the magic she had carefully prepared did not cause any damage to her opponent, and she had been hiding it for so long.

"That's not your trick, is it?" said Alles.

"Yes, it's only the first game, there's more to be prepared for later, but unfortunately I've already lost. If I use my strongest killer move at the beginning, I will undoubtedly expose my hole cards, and the next few rounds will definitely not be easy to play. ”

"It's not your fault, you're already strong. Being able to create your own level 5 earth magic and make use of low-level wind magic is not only something that can be done with high talent, but must have put in a lot of effort secretly. I'm not a magician, but I know that a true magician must be fighting with his wit, not just magic. Didn't I get hit too? Fortunately, I was able to defend myself at all times, so I was able to avoid serious injury. I believe that you will be able to become the top powerhouse on the continent in the future. Ahlers said firmly.

"You're stronger. Futina's expression was not as gloomy as it had been at the beginning, "I feel much more comfortable hearing you say that." But be careful, maybe one day I'll overtake you again. ”

"I'm really looking forward to that day. Ahlers smiled as well.

"You're an interesting person, aren't you? Futina stepped out of the ring, "The last move is called an inch, isn't it?" Futina thought back to that moment just now, and when she felt that the crisis had arrived, she put another layer of the original rock barrier on herself, and almost at the same time, the sword wind whistled. The blade wrapped in fighting spirit effortlessly pierced through the shield and came to a steady stop in Futina's strength.

Ahlers nodded slightly, a tacit response.

"In the second game, Ahlers won!" the referee waited until the end of the conversation between the two to announce the result.

"Inch...... Is this a provocation? Leonard, who was near, had a clear grasp of the battle just now, and he looked at Ahlers in the distance, who looked back at this moment, and the two of them crossed their gazes, smiled knowingly, and walked away.

"How do these two people think there is something wrong, it's too suspicious. Zero spoke his mind.

"It's just that I'm excited to find an opponent of my age and strength. As a swordsman, Karen felt she understood this noble feeling.

"It can't be a sentimental feeling, right? look at their gazes...... Ah, it hurts. Lena hugged her head and squatted to defend.

[Where did you learn the word "base feelings"! You shouldn't have the qualifications of a rotten girl, right?] Zero threw a shudder at Lina, and then began to complain.

"Doesn't Leonard like Icarus? don't worry, Ray looks so honest that he won't empathize. At best, it's poor Ahlers' unrequited love. Ai Xue mercilessly added a mallet to Ahres.

[Is this really the Ai Xue I know...... Please tell me that this is just a joke]

Only Icarus expressed his helplessness in his seat, "Although I know it's impossible, if the two of them can love each other, I can feel at ease." ”

[Don't make such an innocent expression, you have no mouth and a natural black belly. God, what's wrong with this world]

Well, it's just a small episode in the process, and it won't get in the way of the whole game.

"In the next group, Musa vs. Shuma is another duel between a swordsman and a warrior. ”

Under the instructions of the referee, the two entered separately.

"What a coincidence, brother. The girl with long flaxen hair greeted her.

"It's really unfortunate that I met you in the first game. Musa replied with a wry smile, this sister had been giving him a headache from beginning to end.

"Don't say that, I haven't seen you in a long time. Sister Shuma smiled and hid a knife.

"Speaking of which, I haven't been a punching bag in a long time. But in this case, only one of us will be able to make the cut. ”

"You're always so pessimistic, thinking on the bright side. Regardless of the outcome, we will always have one of them who will make it to the last four. ”

"It's time for your carefree personality to change, don't be like a child. ”

"Don't preach, hurry up and show your weapons. With so much nonsense, the audience should be impatient. I brought the crystal meteor out, don't tell me that you didn't take the sword of the sun. ”

The girl uncovered the package behind her, which was not the weapon she used in the preliminaries. The transparent crystal sparkles in the afternoon sun, and the moment of the shot is hard to look at.

Seconds later, there was a commotion in the stands.

"Toothbrush?" Zero immediately thought of some kind of toiletry when he saw this strangely shaped thing.

―――――――――― I am the dividing line at the end――――――――――

ps: Crystal meteor = toothbrush setting, anyone who has played a classic online game should know ~
