I don't want to be a heroic spirit

Everyone has a past that they don't want to be mentioned, and both Ikki Kurogane and Jushizuku Kurogane feel this way.

Because they already regard Okita Souji as a friend, they won't ask such questions rashly.

They hope to wait until Okita Souji says it himself, or...

wait for a suitable time to ask this question.

Chapter 79 Ikki Kurogane's Changes

Just as Okita Souji expected at the beginning, Ayase Ayase won her first game easily.

Then the next day, Stella and Jushizuku Kurogane also won the game with an overwhelming advantage.

Especially Stella, just fighting there, let the opponent surrender voluntarily.

Only by standing in front of her and experiencing it in person, you will understand what "the world's first magic power" and "thirty times the average magic power" really mean.

The audience's reaction was completely different from when Okita Souji won the game. It was not sighing and questioning, but complete admiration and envy.

Then... it was Ikki Kurogane's game.

"Don't you need to rest for a while, brother?"

Ikki Kurogane was about to enter the rest area, but Tamashiro Kurogane couldn't help but worry about him.

"It's okay, Tamashiro, I'm in the best condition now."

Ikki Kurogane didn't look very good at the moment.

He looked pale, his hair was a little messy, and there were even several cuts and bloodstains on his clothes.

Just before coming here, he was training with Okita Souji.

"The mind's eye is similar to the sixth sense. If you want to stimulate it to the limit, you have to abandon the other five senses."

"Vision and hearing, these two account for more than 90% of the information sources of a normal person's five senses, and then there are touch, smell, and taste, which are the five senses. I will squeeze your energy to the limit in the form of fighting, so that you can't distinguish the information from the senses."

"The mind's eye should originally need to wander on the edge of life and death for several years or even decades before you can accidentally comprehend the realm, but we don't have so much time, so after your body recovers, you may forget the current feeling, but it doesn't matter. With your talent, even if you forget this time, I believe you will remember it soon."

That's right, at this moment, Kurogane Ikki has already comprehended the mind's eye!

Because Okita Souji's sword is too fast, so fast that it is difficult to capture with the naked eye, so vision needs to be abandoned.

Because Okita Souji's sword is too ghostly, as if even the sound is cut off by it, so hearing needs to be abandoned.

During the battle, Kurogane Ikki had already understood that he could not "see" Okita Souji's sword with his five senses alone, so he had to "see" with his "eyes" other than the five senses.

Although Kurogane Ikki looked scary now, if you feel it carefully, you will find that his breath is much more restrained and solid, and he does not feel weak at all.

If it were Kurogane Ikki's own feelings, he would feel that the world in front of his "eyes" had never been so clear.

The original tension and fear were gone.

At this moment, his heart was as calm as a mirror lake.

"If you want to be a jeweler, wait for me in the audience."

After saying this, Kurogane Ikki turned and walked into the player's lounge.

After staring at Kurogane Ikki's back for a long time, Kurogane Jojo stammered and said softly.

"I wish you good luck in martial arts, brother."

In the audience, Stella sat in the front row of seats.

With her was Ayatsuji Ayase, but there were still a few empty seats next to the two of them. The entire auditorium was already full, and it was obvious that these empty seats were reserved for people.

Ayatsuji Ayase suddenly felt someone sitting next to her, but she had not noticed the other person's arrival before.

"Soji, you..."

Ayatsuji Ayase was about to say hello to Okita Souji, but her face was covered with shock in an instant.

Because she found that Okita Souji's delicate little face was a little tired, and the most important thing was that there were three knife cuts on her clothes, and the cuts were still very new.

"Soji! What are you doing..."

"Ah, I accidentally flipped over..."

Okita Souji smiled helplessly, but his eyes were closed.

Stella also just noticed Okita Souji who had just arrived, and she couldn't help but be shocked when she saw Okita Souji's embarrassed look.

"Did Ikki do this?"

"Ikki?"

Ayatsuji Ayase then remembered that Okita Souji had told her that he had been training Kurogane Ikki these days.

Ayatsuji Ayase had not been to the scene. She had been training for the trials these days. Stella had been to the scene. After all, she and Kurogane Ikki were roommates. Every night, she saw Kurogane Ikki coming back covered in wounds and blood, so she would definitely come to see.

Kurogatsu Jushizuku did not stop Stella, or she was happy to do so.

Because Stella was also scared when she saw Okita Souji in the "murderer" state.

So Stella was so shocked at this moment.

When she went to see it before, Kurogane Ikki didn't even have the ability to parry against Okita Souji, but now he can hurt Souji in return?

After all, if it was her, it would be difficult to even raise a weapon against Okita Souji in that state.

Okita Souji nodded, which surprised Stella.

"So, Ikki's match this time..."

Okita Souji didn't answer in a hurry, but first glanced at the ring below, with a meaningful arc on his lips.

"It will probably be easy to win."

Then, Kurogane Jushizuku also came, and with her was Arisuin Nagi.

Shinguji Kurono also came to the scene of this competition.

As the chairman of this academy, she certainly knew that Okita Souji was giving special training to Kurogane Ikki, and she had always valued Kurogane Ikki, so she must come to see it.

As for her good friend, Saikyo Nin...

"The first game of the day is finally about to start! The live broadcast will be by me, Tsukiyomi! The commentary will be presented to everyone by Saikyo Nin! "

"Please take care of me."

That's right, Saikyo Nin went to be a commentator.

It is said that the viewing angle over there is better, and you can clearly see the entire competition venue.

"Today's opponent is also very eye-catching. On one side is the C-class knight who competed in the Seven Star Sword Dance Festival last year, player Shizuya Kirihara."

Accompanied by the announcer's introduction, Shizuya Kirihara entered the arena, tilting his head and walking in a very cool pace.

But even with such a person, people in the audience kept cheering him on, and there were girls who shouted "Master Shizuya is so handsome" with a crazy look on their faces.

"The opponent is player Ikki Kurogane, who is F-class but defeated player Familion in the mock battle."

The voices in the audience suddenly became quiet.

In the lounge, there was a half-hour break, and Ikki Kurogane simply took a shower and changed clothes.

Although he didn't look as dirty as before he came, as if he had just crawled out of the artillery pit on the Syrian battlefield, but when he got closer, Shizuya Kirihara could still see Ikki Kurogane's tired face.

Chapter 80 Kurogane Ikki's Victory (4/31)

"What's wrong with you?" Kirihara Shizuya sneered, "Is it because you are the opponent that you are scared and can't sleep for several days?"

"This is a good thing, Kurogane-san, it means you know the gap between you and me. Unlike a waste like you, I am a real genius."

Faced with Kirihara Shizuya's ridicule, Kurogane Ikki did not speak, but summoned his own spiritual outfit.

Seeing this, Kirihara Shizuya also took out his own spiritual outfit - a longbow that seemed to be made of some kind of vine.

The blue light was cast in Kurogane Ikki's hands, and the black samurai sword was held by Kurogane Ikki in a very loose posture, with the tip of the blade pointing diagonally to the ground.

After seeing Kurogane Ikki take out the spiritual outfit Yin Iron, Kirihara Shizuya, who had been smiling contemptuously, was stunned for a moment.

"Strange..."

He didn't feel anything before, but after Kurogane Ikki held the sword, he always felt that something had changed in the other party, but he couldn't say it.

But soon, he didn't care anymore.

In the broadcast room, the kimono loli Nishikyo Ningyin, who was originally lazily leaning on the back of the chair, slowly sat up, and Shinguji Kurono's face became more and more solemn.

At this moment, although it was only for a moment, Shinguji Kurono seemed to see the shadow of the world's number one swordsman on Kurogane Ikki.

"Kurotetsu-san, he..."

Ayatsuji Ayase slightly widened his eyes.

Ayatsuji Ayase is also a swordsman, so she is more sensitive to Kurogane Ikki's current state than others.

Even though he can be seen there with the naked eye, it feels like there is only a ball of air there.

"Don't you take the initiative to attack?"

Kirihara Shizuya said in a casual tone as if chatting with an old friend, "Then, I'm rude."

Then, Kirihara Shizuya's magic power covered the entire ring in an instant, and the next moment, the ring turned into a forest.

And Kirihara Shizuya's figure completely disappeared in front of Kurogane Ikki.

"It appears! Hunter's Forest! The figure of contestant Kirihara Shizuya has completely disappeared!"

There was an uproar in the audience.

The dense forest was filled with a faint mist, which not only affected the vision, but also hindered other senses.

Facing Kirihara Shizuya's sword-cutting skills, the most effective way was to violently destroy this forest made of his magic, otherwise he would be exhausted to death.

But Kurogane Ikki just stood there quietly, as if he had given up.

Suddenly, he slowly raised the hand holding the sword.

"Dang!"

The green light arrow hit his horizontal sword, making a crisp sound of metal hitting metal.

The next moment, three more sounds of breaking through the air came out of thin air.

Kurogatsu Ikki swung a sword lightly.

Accompanied by three golden sounds, the three light arrows deviated from the initial trajectory because of Kurogane Ikki's sword, and flew out by brushing his body.

One shot to the ground, one flew into the sky, and one pierced through a tree behind Kurogane Ikki and flew to an unknown place.

Ikki Kurogane's nonchalant look shocked everyone present.

"I... what did I see! Ikki Kurogane actually bounced off all the attacks?!"

The shocked look on everyone's faces made Stella and Jushizuku Kurogane raise their heads subconsciously.

After all, the man in the field was their lover (brother).

"Oh my, oh my, no way? You are just a 'failed knight', you don't really want to beat a genius like me?"

Kirihara Shizuya's voice rang out from all sides of Ikki Kurogane, and the contempt and disgust in his tone did not make Ikki Kurogane frown even once.

Perhaps it was this indifferent attitude that made Kirihara Shizuya even more unbearable.

"Okay, okay, since you haven't given up yet, then I'll let you see my true ability. Feel honored! You can make a genius like me take it seriously!"

"I'll tell you in advance! This year, I can even hide the arrows. I wonder how you can block them!"

Sure enough, it was just as Okita Souji predicted at the time.

Kurogane Ikki couldn't help but think so in his heart.

If Okita Souji wasn't there, he would probably be in danger now, right?

Kurogane Ikki raised his head and looked in one direction.

Although he was blocked by the dense leaves, his "heart" told him that Souji, Stella, and Shizuku were in that direction, watching his game intently.

So many people are looking forward to him, so many people are worried about him.

So...
