Asuka of the Scarlet Sky

Chapter 26: Duel (4)

銆孏u鈥u鈥︺€?br>
Thunderbolt glared at the presence in front of her while putting power on her hanging left arm.

Beating the collarbone, she can鈥檛 now raise her left arm.

Thunderbolt laughed as she鈥檚 unable to pull her bow now.

銆孒aa, haa銆?br>
Thunderbolt that鈥檚 covered with wounds looks at Asuka with her blurring consciousness.

Her arrow had pierced the left chest deeply. Barely missing the vital spot, it鈥檚 not strange for her to fall down anytime.

Asuka smiled for some reason and stabbed the weight sword on the ring.

The two people laughed at each other and the dumbfounded watchers had time move again.

銆嶹-what offense and defeeeeense!!!! Who would鈥檝e imagined this kind of development!? It鈥檚 a battle where you can鈥檛 even breathe! Both of the combatants are wounded!! But is the fight decided!?銆?br>
The commentator raised her voice as she had recalled.

It鈥檚 natural, because she was also fascinated from the fight of the two Heroes.

And just like as she had said, the fight had already concluded.

Although both are standing, the bow user can鈥檛 use her bow anymore.

Her loss is clearly seen by anyone.

But, only the girls on the ring had noticed.

This can鈥檛 be the end.

銆屸€suka-san. I鈥檓 glad, it鈥檚 you銆?br>
Thunderbolt smiled at Asuka.

That鈥檚 gratitude. Then, the game should be decided with one hit.

It鈥檚 likely that they have stopped if only it鈥檚 the limit.

(Aiming at the middle of the forehead? That鈥檚 funny)

Still, she knew. She鈥檚 impossible to be killed with those kind of things.

If not then she鈥檚 not the Scarlet Sky swordsman he believes in.

銆孖 will put my all in this attack and exceed your銆嶴carlet Sky銆忋€?br>
She pulled the huge bow. Thunderbolt aligned the string and tore it off, her treasure tool made an appearance.

Asuka鈥檚 eyes that reflects the godly magic spear made her burst in tears from happiness.

Gungnir. The proof of 銆嶤ertain Hit銆弔hat was given to her by the Osudia royal family.

She doesn鈥檛 know that this treasure spear is actually handed over to the prestigious family from a remote region.

銆孖t鈥檚 needless to say the meaning of this spear right?銆?br>
Asuka stood firmly on the ground after hearing those words.

She鈥檚 going to take the blow upfront. She鈥檒l believe in the strongest pride.

銆孲carlet Sword, release銆?br>
She gripped it. The shining crimson is the proof of her 銆嶴carlet Sky銆?br>
Everyone on that location had their breath taken away by the red sword appearing after a bright red flash.

Even Yuuto was captivated by the brilliance.

銆孖鈥檒l surpass you. I鈥檒l beat your銆嶤ertain hit銆弖sing his strongest scarlet sword銆?br>
She raised her stance. It鈥檚 a downward swing she repeated again and again. The foolishly honest her can only do this.

Thunderbolt smiled at the beauty of that scarlet swordsman.

This is the genuine Asuka of the Scarlet Sky.

(It鈥檚 a very magnificent masterpiece鈥ut)

She posed. All what remains in her. She鈥檒l muster beyond that.

That moment, her demon eyes had sensed the wish of the other side of the magic spear.

Smile.

Thunderbolt offered all of herself to that throw.

銆孖f you can stop iiiiitt!銆?br>
That鈥檚 literally her full power.

All magic, all of the strength, she loaded all of her power, her last attack.

She removed the homing function, the fastest flight magic in the world.

She loaded. Pierce. She is 銆嶤ertain Hit銆廡hunderbolt

Her demon eyes can pierce the gap of the world.

Air, molecule, more than that, the resistance of the world. A single blow of the demon eye that pass through all friction.

銆孏ungniiiiiiiiirr!!銆?br>
It accelerates. The flight magic鈥檚 original purpose.

Acceleration limit. Exceeding the reason of the world even the speed of sound, her spear is beyond speed of light.

Her aim is the heart.

Asuka cuts the blow that can pierce the world.

銆孌aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!銆?br>
Coincidence? Inevitable? The tip of the scarlet sword captures the light.

(aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!)

The clash impacts. In the short time where you can say it鈥檚 a blink, Asuka swung down her scarlet sword.

Off point. The flash of light the scarlet sword flicked cut down the orbit of Gungnir.

Then銉?br>
鈼嗐€€銆€鈼嗐€€銆€鈼?br>
A roaring sound echoed.

A blow that would penetrate god. The impact of the magic spear crushes all the soil

銆嶯-No way!? The barrier!?銆?br>
The barrier cracks. Mihorin Shaunad bent her body forward from the impossible scene.

The prided magic barrier of the kingdom made by a hundred elites. The mystery that shouldn鈥檛 be able to be surpassed by an individual power is pounded by a blow.

Just now, it was the burst of magical convection. She looked in utter amazement as the dust soar up in the arena.

銆嶵-This鈥 don鈥檛 get it! That was combatant Thunderbolt鈥檚 full power! Is combatant Asuka safe!?銆?br>
Risty also bent her body towards the ring to look.

However, Risty stopped her rushing feet because of the expression of the boy on her side.

The meaning of his expression shouts the real situation.

銆嶰H goooooood! S-She鈥檚 standing!! Combatant Asuka is stannddiiiiiing!銆?br>
The audience looked at the live scene.

Inside the cloud of dust is Asuka standing while gripping her scarlet sword.

There鈥檚 an arrow sticking on her prided Scarlet Armor. Still, Asuka of the Scarlet Sky is standing.

However, it鈥檚 not just her.

Asuka stares at the hero in front of her.

銆嶣-Both are alive and well. What a fight, what a match. For me, it鈥檚 no longer about who wins鈥︺€?br>
Inside the area where everyone is holding their breath, Asuka stepped forward.

Ahead, step by step, ahead.

Then, she looked ahead.

The proud hero is standing in front of her.

銆孴hank you very muuuuuuuch!銆?br>
She bowed. With all her power, to the woman who clashed with her until the last.

The situation was understood from that voice.

That鈥檚 right, she mustered it. A single throw using all of the strength.

To the 銆嶤ertain Hit銆廻ero who lost her consciousness, the commentated inhaled.

銆嶪-It鈥檚 oveeeeer!! Combatant Thunderbolt can鈥檛 fight anymore!! The winner of the duel is Asuka Retroliva of the Scarlet Skyyyyyyyyy!!!銆?br>
Asuka鈥檚 body collapsed as the shout of joy welled up.

It鈥檚 not surprising as she also銉?br>
鈼嗐€€銆€鈼嗐€€銆€鈼?br>
Waking up.

The consciousness that was broken off was gradually waking up.

Because of the large voice echoing, the surrounding sound is confusing. For the first time in her life, she laughed.

The ground was making her back feel cold. Based from the hardness, it seems to be the entrance.

銆孻o, you鈥檙e awake銆?br>
The usual tall figure is peeping to the lying down her.

Her best friend looks down on her cross legged.

Ruby Diamond Carbuncle1, Thunderbolt understood the state.

銆屸€ lost銆?br>
銆孻eah. It was an excellent defeat銆?br>
Hearing that voice, Ruby smiled. She鈥檚 a woman who can鈥檛 lie as usual, Thunderbolt smiled wryly.

Thought. His, hers.

(I lost?)

In the end she wasn鈥檛 able to reach her.

The scarlet hero that every one yearns for.

It鈥檚 not a lie to say that she鈥檚 not jealous.

銆孴he match ended well for a disliked person銆?br>
The coward challenged the hero of this country. It might be very funny.

Turning the bow made her lose more and more allies. Even he never asked using his mouth.

Thunderbolt narrowed her demon eyes and declared.

銆孲till, it鈥檚 fine銆?br>
But, she smiled. She felt fresh somewhere. She lost yet, Thunderbolt smiled from the bottom of her heart.

銆孒ey hey, Don鈥檛 change your words, it鈥檚 still too early銆?br>
Ruby smiled to that Thunderbolt.

What does it mean? Thunderbolt stared at Ruby.

銆學hat? You didn鈥檛 hear it? It鈥檚 a shame to your demon eyes銆?br>
She listened carefully for the content of that smile.

From the other side of the resounding head was something that鈥檚 heard certainly

銆嶱lease listen, the cheers doesn鈥檛 stop!!銆?br>
銆屸€h?銆?br>
She muttered it unintentionally, her wounds surely hurt.

But, it鈥檚 not strange. After all, she had won. The shouts are natural.

But, what?

銆孖t鈥檚 a nice game!! Both of you are the best!!銆?br>
銆孴hunderbolt銉? I misunderstood you! I鈥檓 sorry!銆?br>
銆孌id you see that infight? Who was it? Who called that she鈥檚 a coward?銆?br>
銆孖t鈥檚 you. No, me too銆?br>
What鈥檚 this?

銆嶹hat a duel! What a match! Who would expect such a match!?

However, please listen! Praise both of them! Blessings to this match!

The colliding pride! This is our countries prided aliased heroes! Asuka of the銆嶴carlet Sky銆廰nd 銆嶤ertain Hit銆廡hunderbolt銆?br>
Strange. Why is her name lined next to her.

銆孌id you see that Gungnir?銆?br>
銆孖 can鈥檛 believe it. Is that the tenth place?銆?br>
銆孉suka-sama was amazing銆?br>
銆孴he two of them were serious鈥︺€?br>
That鈥檚 right. I used my all against the strongest swordsman.

銆嶵here鈥檚 no one who would despise her in this hall anymore! After all, we saw it! The scarlet swordsman fights bravely! The strongest Bow User!

The fight was fair and square! The bow user was magnificent! Did you see that Dammit! This is the tenth in the hero rankings 銆嶤ertain Hit銆廡hunderbolt!!!!銆?br>
The encouragement doesn鈥檛 stop ringing even if it was settled. That鈥檚 not all. The casual conversation in the seats.

She had sensed all of it.

After all she鈥檚 the world鈥檚 strongest銉?br>
銆孌idn鈥檛 you say you鈥檙e going to return the favor?銆?

The gentle voice of Ruby was sent to her best friend.

Since she鈥檚 obstinate, she would say it first.

Thunderbolt shakes her neck to the question of her smiling best friend.

Tears that鈥檚 not known who to turn into had overflowed from Thunderbolt鈥檚 demon eye.

銆學-why!?銆?br>
She can鈥檛 phrase it. Since when? From when does she kept having such a dream?

銆孴here鈥檚, there鈥檚鈥?銆?br>
It鈥檚 strange. I, all this time.

But, that doesn鈥檛 matter.

Because, this is such.

銆孶waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!銆?br>
She sobs. Tears flowed to her cheeks from the demon eyes.

Thinking about it, since that day銉?

That day, 銆嶤ertain Hit銆?Thunderbolt cried until she can鈥檛 anymore.
