Otome's Law of Ascension

Chapter 24

"Why did you choose her?"

Licia had just entered the practice field when she heard discordant voices.

"Buchton, shut up." Caroline's hair was tied up high, she was wearing men's training clothes, and she was holding a copper ax in her hand.

"Why, I can't wait to curry favor with the heir of the duke's family, tsk tsk." Buchton's weapon was an iron sword, and he was cleaning it.

"Yeah, it's better than you. I accidentally wooed the wrong person and went to accompany that lunatic Ashe." Caroline pointed the tip of the ax at Buchton, and the diamond-shaped coat of arms on her forehead was looming.

Licia didn't expect that her sister's boyfriend Buchton was also in the training team, and judging by his position, he seemed to be in the forward position, and this Caroline seemed to have some issues with her sister.

Caroline's family is similar to Buchton's, both only have the title of Viscount.

"You stand here, Licia. Your duty is to operate the magic circle and the potion." Fudomi led her to the center of the team.

Dimitri was in front of her. He had just stepped on a white flying horse, took off the silver spear from his back, and held it in his hand.

"Okay, everyone is here. Let's get started."

As Dimitri's voice fell, more than 30 wooden signs rose from the practice field.

"Requiem." Dimitri said, pointing to the front.

Licia quickly activated the Requiem Circle, and pointed the direction indicator of the circle forward, and the wooden sign in front immediately turned gray.

The judgment is valid.

"The first round of close attack."

. . . .

Licia found that she was the most tiring during the rehearsal, and it was almost the same as actual combat. Everyone else only needed to attack the plank symbolically.

"Mobile training tomorrow afternoon." Dimitri landed on the Pegasus, and it was already past four o'clock in the afternoon.

Zhou Nuo led the team members of Mandala Academy to wait for them to leave outside the practice field.

"Prefect, they actually chose a person whose coat of arms power is not clear to control the magic circle." Julia said in a low voice. "I heard that although she has a defensive magic circle, it is good and bad."

"Just use conventional means to win." Zhou Nuo and the others lowered their heads, waiting for the nine noble students to pass by them.

Except for the Thorn College which has nine students, the other colleges have 12 students. This is to balance the Thorn College's lineup of all nobles.

Julia also lowered her head, clenched her fists, and looked at the ground unwillingly.

When Licia passed by her side, she took a special look at the 80.00% disgust level above her head.

For a moment, he didn't know whether to worry about Buchton's lack of cooperation in the big competition the day after tomorrow, or whether Julia would play dirty tricks against her.

The day before the college competition, Dimitri asked Di Tata to draw lots on behalf of Thorn College.

"Center." Dimitri read out while holding the note.

Everyone else sighed around the circle of light, and some even slammed the table.

Licia is trying to memorize the best speed for each potion to be put into the magic circle.

"How can we get the center position? If Mandala and Akagi join forces to contract us," Caroline said.

Her worries are not unreasonable. The playing field is a rectangle, and the teams standing at the four corners are very close to the center.

"An experience." Even Dimitri frowned.

His tactic was originally defensive, allowing Licia, a freshman, to output normally.

"Then why don't we take the initiative to attack one of the teams." Lizia looked up. Today she wore a blue bow on her head and a white satin scarf around her neck.

Buhe Dun leaned on the chair with his sword in his arms, and made a 'cut' sound with his mouth tilted to one side. "It's not because of you."

"What's wrong with me, do I need to stand still to cast the magic circle? But you, as a swordsman, will continue to show flaws in the process of moving. I think it's because of you." Licia stood up, She felt that this could make her more imposing.

"Of course it needs to be moved, but Licia." Dimitri said.

"Yeah." Licia sat down.

"You will definitely become a breakthrough point in the eyes of others." He thought for a while. "So, your position is not arranged in the middle of the team. After the game starts, you immediately use the fast-moving magic circle to reach this place."

Dimitri pointed to a corner on the topographic map to show Lycia. "Wait here until we arrive."

"There are only eight people in the Academy of Thorns?" Julia used the binoculars to search for Licia at the beginning of the competition. "There, she ran away!"

Excitedly, she followed Lizia's fast running figure with her eyes.

"Julia! What are you going to do?" Zhou Nuo saw that Julia used the only fast movement in the team to start, and ran towards the northeast.

Licia was carrying the magic circle, scrolls, and thirty bottles of potions. She had just arrived at the position, but found a familiar figure coming towards her.

"You lost." Julia pulled out the dagger and rushed towards Licia at a high speed.

"Ding." Licia blocked the attack with her shield and released a freezing magic circle, but her heraldry power was not aroused.

She didn't have time to think about why the protective power of the coat of arms was up and down. Within five seconds of the freezing magic circle taking effect, she hit Julia's stomach hard with her shield, and then ran towards the direction her team came from.

A stray arrow flew towards her.

Fudomi quickly cast a spell and ignited the arrow in mid-air. Dimitri lowered his flight altitude and pulled Licia onto the horse.

"Someone found me." Sitting on the horseback, she sprinkled the hallucinogenic potion on the Akagi team in the air.

The subsequent battle was very chaotic. Due to the uncharacteristic offensive strategy of Thorn College in the center, Chimu College and Mandala College, which were planning to besiege them, were thrown into chaos.

Originally, at the moment when the Sea Lion Academy was about to reap the benefits, the array-shattering arrow that flew towards Dimitri was blocked by Licia's coat of arms.

She glanced at the archer, who was Posetti in a state of berserk.

The ox horn pattern on his forehead was very conspicuous, and his eyes also turned silver. He looked at Dimitri viciously, and shot another arrow.

Licia still used her palm to block Dimitri's shoulder, and it still took effect.

The game ended with the Academy of Thorns winning streak.

After the show ended, Licia had a guess in her mind.

Could it be that whether the low-end of the coat of arms takes effect depends on whether the attacker likes or hates it?

It is very reasonable to say this, but the power of this heraldry is too tasteless.

How could a real enemy have a good impression?

"What are you thinking? Our great hero." At the celebration banquet, Fudomi gently pushed Licia who was in a daze.

"It's nothing, I'm just curious, why the protective power of my coat of arms didn't take effect when I met that civilian girl." She took a glass of sparkling wine, took a sip, cut another piece of chicken, and sprinkled some peppercorns, Put it in your mouth.
