100 – Winning

“…… I don’t think I’ve ever seen a final match like this in my entire life.”

“… ….”

Teikan silently affirmed the words of the Marquis of Lyikanter.

Because he also strongly agreed.

The battle between the 7th and 7th circles.

Occasionally, there were cases where a skilled person from the beginning of the 7th circle participated in a magic match, but even in that case, it did not reach the level of this match.

Quarrr!

…… Lightning strikes down.

The brilliance of blue light flashes with a bloody light, and it drives away the lightning that strikes wildly in all directions.

Such scenes were happening in real time, every few seconds.

Everywhere is brightened, dyed in gold, and then changed its form to blue in an instant.

Even a moderate 7th circle wizard wouldn’t be able to draw out that level of magic.

It was good to say that it was a high-level match.

Yeah, literally the class was different.

It was a spectacular spectacle so intense that memories of the magical wars that had been going on in the empire were forgotten for a moment.

The corners of Teikan’s mouth began to rise without my knowledge.

Why was that?

I’m not sure, but I’m watching my son play an active role.

I don’t know why, but I think that I feel like I have a feeling that passion is raging, and I’m expecting something.

Teikan put a hearty smile on his lips.

*****

Circle 7.

It was a stage right below the 8th circle class, which is usually called the great wizard.

Still, it was not something that could be ignored.

How could that be?

Each one of them is the nation’s strength, and if they possess a force stronger than thousands of soldiers.

That kind of existence, being a magician from the 7th circle.

…… However.

At least, it would be fair to say that the two wizards standing in the arena right now are one step higher than the wizards of the 7th circle.

Anyone who has the eyes to know the approximate level of the 7th circle will be able to know.

The fact that at most boys, or those who deserve to be called youths, have achieved a level superior to any magician in the 7th circle.

“…… I was surprised, to be honest.”

Karl opened his mouth with a ferocious grin.

“I already took over this space. As you know, it means that the environment is created in my favor.”

White nodded lightly.

The meaning of affirmation, it was a fact that I knew from the beginning.

White’s straight gaze turned to Carl.

Carl began to speak slowly.

“Nevertheless, boy, you blocked all of my attacks. Or simply avoid it. In fact, either way, it’s downright shocking.”

“Are you surprised? Did you suddenly realize that you were the frog in the well?”

At White’s words, Carl let out a chuckle.

Obviously his tone was sarcastic, but he showed no sign of displeasure.

“You might as well say that. In fact, I feel a little bit self-deprecating.”

Pajik-

A bolt of lightning crossed Carl’s eyes, sparking once.

“I thought I had the best talent. And that wasn’t so wrong. No one ever made it to the 7th circle in their early twenties.”

By the way, I thought I had considerably widened the gap among the 7 circles.

Even if any magician from the 7th circle was an opponent, he was confident that he would lead to a stalemate.

Actually, it was the right thing to say.

Circle 7, among them, the gap was the law, and if it was the level of the sword, it was enough to be in the upper ranks.

White nodded once in recognition.

“I don’t deny that. Because I feel it too.”

“hahahaha, that’s a very appreciative evaluation.”

Karl shrugged.

He actually looked down at himself, but he didn’t feel bad.

Actually, he felt it too.

The fact that the boy standing in front of him right now, not even twenty years of age, was a better wizard than he was.

“…… Well, let’s talk about this.”

As he spat out, the sword struck again with lightning.

Lightning slowly raced through his whole body, and eventually reached the tips of his hands.

Golden sparks were scattered in all directions, as if the lightning bolt had stayed intact.

“… ….”

And just watching the scene, White narrowed her eyes.

To be honest, I was quite surprised.

To the level achieved by the ordinary young man in front of him, to the level of unique magic he created.

I was even a little impressed.

If he had reached the 7th circle at the age of his early twenties, it wouldn’t have been that different compared to White himself before returning.

White smiled.

To bring out a little more sincerity, it was okay to say that I was looking forward to it.

How far can this young man reach?

It probably won’t be that difficult to reach the 9th circle.

That was half-determined.

But, even so, I was curious.

How far can this young man go against his current self?

“…… hahahaha.”

At least for this moment, White forgot about winning or losing her finals.

She wanted to fight a little more.

She was a pure wizard with a sense of self-righteousness.

He was someone I’d met countless times when it came to simply being an outstanding wizard, but he had achieved a far higher level among people his age.

He

He thought he would never meet.

A magician who is on par with himself, or at least able to compete in his own way.

I have thought so.

…… Eventually, we finally met.

A young man named Carl von Ajdahaka.

He is a wizard who is not far behind even compared to himself.

A genius who can be expected to reach how far he can reach if given more time.

White raised the corners of his mouth fiercely.

It was good to say that he was excited.

Actually, right now, he was feeling a sense of heightened emotion in real time.

Hook!

White started to rotate the heart circle again.

Mana covers her whole body, and soon reaches her fingertips to draw her spell.

And the very next moment.

“Go.”

The two wizards, White and Carl, muttered a single word at the same time.

“──.”

Immediately after that, the stadium had to be dyed with bright brilliance again.

*****

The level is high.

Or, on a different level.

It would be nice to express it that way.

It was a worthy match, and it was a match worthy of the name of the final.

Lightning struck from time to time, literally destroying the stadium in half.

The brilliance of blue light created waves, shot as flashes, and even caused a tidal wave that crossed the waves.

…… And.

A decision was finally made.

“…… Kut.”

Letting out a quiet voice, Carl shook his head with a bitter look.

…… Lost completely

From the looks of it, it must have looked like they were fighting in their own way, but he could tell.

I was just being pushed all the way.

To a boy who is no more than 20 years old, and who can be described as a younger brother.

…… Truly overwhelming.

The lightning chased after him, and pierced it to burn him, but in the end it failed to strike effectively.

Boy, White blocked the attack with the right timing and the right decision more than any other choice.

Or avoid it.

Actually, it didn’t matter either way.

Actually, the important thing is the lightning that he boasts about.

It was in the fact that it couldn’t cause significant damage to the boy.

As if Carl collapsed, he let out a lonely laugh.

…… Remember the last attack.

The first time the boy who had been able to block his own lightning with ease showed his true feelings for the first time.

Of course, that was just what he felt, but at least that meant he felt it.

At least that bloody attack at the end, the boy must have been sincere too.

‘…… If it’s just my hopes, then it’s really unsightly.’

He didn’t think so.

The brilliance of that blue light.

A flash of brilliance that was unmatched in splendor.

…… In fact, if it’s just a moderate look at that.

At that time, you might really feel a sense of shame and emptiness.

Karl shook his head from side to side.

…… Either way, it’s already been defeated.

There was no point in further thinking.

“I lost.”

A short word.

Karl admitted defeat, and the next moment.

Beep!

[…] … The magic battle, the final! Ajidahakawa, the sword of the royal family of the Dark Kingdom, and the mysterious boy White! After a fierce battle, the victory was won…… !]

The host swallowed a dry spit.

And soon, he exhaled.

[──White! The winner is White!]

Waaa!

As thunderous cheers resonated throughout the audience, a huge screen floated above the stadium.

Ugh!

As Mana moved, two figures appeared on the screen.

Karl is breathing in a collapsed state, and White is reaching out to the knife.

How could I not be excited?

How can you not admire it?

No other magic battle has ever created a match like this.

The confrontation between the 7 circles was enough and overflowing to thrill the audience.

And at the end, if the winner extends his hand to the loser and builds friendship.

No one would survive without bursting into admiration.

The inside of the arena started to fill with heat.

“Good job.”

“hahahaha… ….”

White and Carl exchanged only brief conversations like that.

Karl gave White a devastated smile.

It was a smile that seemed to have collapsed, but at the same time, there was also a cool feeling in it.

“Thank you, boy.”

“…… ?”

White tilted her head.

Thank you, Ra.

Unsure what he was talking about, White calmly waited for Carl to speak next.

And since White’s outstretched hand was gently held by the knife.

“Whoa.”

With that help, he slowly got up from his seat, and Carl opened his mouth with a wry smile.

“I realized that I was still lacking in training. It’s all thanks to you, so wouldn’t it be strange to be grateful?”

“…… Hmm.”

Would it have been an unexpected serious statement?

White let out a drool.

While doing so, she cautiously avoids her gaze.

‘…… This makes me feel pathetic.’

That was the thought that came to mind.

How could it be otherwise?

In the first place, going to the finals, what was your heart?

I had no choice but to press the knife down.

From noble mtl dot com

Because he was someone I didn’t like very much.

So, he overwhelmingly tried to press down.

…… After the match, if he comes out with this attitude.

In the yard of regression, what kind of person do you become who has such trivial thoughts about a subject who is far older than Carl in his 20s simply in terms of mental age.

To be honest, you could say it’s an unsightly idea.

‘…… Am I still far away?’

Tilting his head and showing a wry smile at Carl, who showed his doubts, White scratched his cheek.

…… Contrary to his uncomfortable first impression, he was more of a personality than I thought.
