Battle War; Magic, Sword and Dragon

Chris True Power's

In the middle of the floating island of Avalon, there is a high hill that resembles a small mountain. The hill was surrounded by shady tree trees resembling a forest. It's just that in the western part of the tree grows so rarely like a forest that has not long grown.

It was in the forest that one of the participants from Shiryuu Academy, Merlin and Mitra. They both did the same thing as Fila and Charlmilia, trying to get groceries.

It's just, their efforts are not so smooth because no animals appear. This is not a problem as they are already trained to resist hunger. It's just, if they don't try to get food, they'll have trouble sooner or later.

"Merlin, did you find anything?"

"No. Still same. There were no small animals in sight. If this continues, we can only hope on the food to be delivered."

Actually they can carry food from items that are allowed to be carried, but because it is limited, they use it for other things.

"For now we focus on our next step first. Since Helen's out, then we can't use the original plan. We should also make a backup plan if our numbers decrease again."

Mitra reached into the bag he was carrying. Inside was an important item they needed to win the Battle War.

"What about Victoria's daughter?"

"With my magic eyes, I can see that he's not moving at all."

Merlin is one of the owners of the magic eye, Dragon Eyes. Dragon Eyes is not as strong as Eyes of Truth, let alone defeat Spirit Eyes. But that does not mean that the ability of Dragon Eyes loses far from other magic eyes if used appropriately.

One of the strengths of Dragon Eyes is being able to know the strength of its opponent by using the size of a number. The power of the eyes has no limits. Even he could figure out the amount of strength despite being blocked by the mountain.

Of course the use of Dragon Eyes is not that easy. First, the Partner must remember the number of opposing forces. The more opponents, then the more number he had to remember. Thank goodness Merlin was a smart man. Given the many numbers it was easy for him.

"As we expected, Victoria's daughter won't hunt down the participants. Really, he does deserve the title of strongest."

The figure for Victoria's power is over 500,000. It was a number that Merlin rarely saw. Especially to the immature young witch.

"But it's not just him that we have to pay attention to. Do you remember Arisa?"

"You're saying that the amount of power you can't guess at all?"

Merlin nodded with an anxious face.

"Not only him, Laila and Kuro are also people I can't guess. To them, the power they have is like having a switch button."

"So the rumor that he managed to defeat Maria is true huh.."

The fight in the capital was famous, but it was not widely spread. What was circulating at this time was only an exaggerated rumor like Charlmilia had managed to defeat Maria after making a contract with the Dragon King.

"Well, even so. If our plan succeeds, no matter how strong they are, they won't be able to defeat us."

"You're right. We better start getting ready. You call Denada and the other two to start the plan immediately."

Merlin nodded and started to activate the communication magic.

***

Knowing that Byakko was easily destroyed by Chris, Charlmilia was not at all surprised. He had even expected this because he knew very well Chris' true strength.

Chris is an SS-ranked magician with a special power called Arm of Destruction. Not only was the strength of his hand extraordinary, but the strength of his hand was able to destroy everything formed from magic such as magic arm and magic beast.

Knowing this, Charlmilia tried to attack Chris with a long-range attack, unfortunately it was not as easy as he had expected.

(I can make a Byakko a Byakura, only if it is like that, I will be harmed)

The main force of the Byakko is melee attacks. He also had long-range attacks, only that it was less effective given Lancelot's incredible magic beast power.

Not only the strength, speed and sword techniques Lancelot used were not inferior to Kuro's sword techniques. Charlmilia knew this because she had faced Kuro several times.

During that fight, Charlmilia never once won. It's just, slowly but surely he's getting stronger. The proof of that was now able to dare to say that it was at least balanced with Kuro in terms of sword techniques.

Unfortunately, before defeating Kuro, he was now pushed back by the power and sword techniques of the magic beast.

(It's not very funny)

Charlmilia accelerated the flow of mana in her body. At the same time his body felt lighter and easier to move than before. He also added reinforcement magic to everything else.

Then with all that, he attacked Lancelot.

Slash, stab, kick, stab right and left. Attack from the bottom up. Cross slash. All the techniques he used could be withheld by Lancelot.

"..."

Charlmilia began to panic. Of all, this was the least he expected.

How could a magic beast have this kind of power?

"Is this just your ability, ...Daughter Charlmilia? If so, I think everyone can become a princess or a prince with just this kind of strength."

"Don't be arrogant. I haven't put out the power I have."

"Then show it. You won't be able to attack me if you can't beat Lancelot."

"I know that, which is why I'm going to be serious. The byakko!!"

The white tiger appeared again. Then the lightning snatched the body of Byakura hard.

"Incarnation, Turtles. The Thunder God Form!!"

The Byakko transformed into a humanoid form with two daggers in his hands. Golden protective clothing appears to add to the prowess of the tiger figure known as the ruler of the forest. Some drum with a comma picture.

The tortoise roared loudly echoing his new form. Then at a speed invisible to the eyes, he shot towards Chris.

"Still slow!!"

But, for a witch of Chris' class, he could see the movements of the Byaktura easily because his kinetic vision was better than that of an ordinary witch.

Once again Chris tried to attack, rather catch Byaktura. With that he would destroy it once more.

"The change!!"

"!?"

Chris was surprised when it arrived the figure of Byakura turned into the figure of Charlmilia. The magic used before was the magic that made Charlmilia and Byaktura change places.

It used to be magic that he could not use, but thanks to a contract with Lapis Lazuli, he could use low-level dimensional-type magic.

You could say it was the right decision. Magic beast against magic beast. It's a simple one, but it fits perfectly with the current situation.

Then unlike before, Charlmilia's speed increased rapidly so that the hand that originally intended to catch the Byakutura, now faced with a rapier.

With the sound of a metallic clash, Charlmilia's attack was successfully restrained with the sword held by the left hand.

Once again Charlmilia was taken aback by Chris' reflexes and strength. With a non-dominant hand, he was able to withstand Charlmilia's already reinforced attack.

The two then clashed swords for how long. Every time they clashed, the snow and the ground around them were split apart by the shock wind. It was at this time that Charlmilia managed to urge Chris.

Unfortunately, despite looking like that, Charlmilia realized that Chris was still not serious.

In terms of speed he was superior, but Chris easily avoided with minimal movement and at the same time counter-attacked.

In his deepest heart, Charlmilia had to admit that in terms of sword techniques, Chris was superior to her.

"Not bad, but not enough."

"Khhhh!!"

Charlmilia was suddenly driven by an incredible force. He understood this was Chris' real strength.

But not only that, Chris who had only fought half and half, now began to put the horse seriously. Chris also held his sword with two hands.

(It's really bad, but.).

I don't know why he knew the horse. Although it was somewhat different, but undoubtedly it was a horse with a position to prepare using the technique...

"Cursed Blade Art, Witch Reaper!!!"

In the blink of an eye, Chris disappeared.

In his mind Charlmilia was shocked. This was something he never expected. But considering there are many who can use the technique other than Kuro, it is no wonder if Chris is able to do it.

He recalls his training with Electra.

for users of the lightning element, speed is the thing we master the most. That's why be proud. With this at least you have the strength to face Kuro on the same stage

'Are you saying that just mastering speed isn't enough?'

- No. Not very enough. Especially when you're dealing with Cursed Art The Reaper or Kuro's Accell Art. Both techniques at a glance only rely on speed alone, but it is a technique that relies on various other factors such as how the brain works, body strength, the five five senses and much more

Hearing that, Charlmilia felt amazed that Kuro had managed to create such a technique.

'Then, can I use that technique against Kuro?'

well, you think that's not wrong. But the technique is not something that is easy to learn. Especially someone who can't read people like you

Don't grieve. If you can't learn it, you just have to learn how to beat it.-

What he learned gave him new hope.

That hope is...

"World Perception"

In an instant Charlmilia knew all that was going on around her. Although it only has a radius of 10 meters, but with that technique he has a 360-degree view.

In that time Chris attacked from the blind spot. What he was after were the legs, then the back, chest, neck, arms, hands, then the head.

Although it does not have a direct impact, but the attack will be converted into a psychic attack that is even able to make people faint.

Yep. At least that's what should have happened.

"...."

Chris was stunned when all his attacks were successfully averted.

"Don't think I'll get hit a second time. Accell Lighting!!"

Charmilia is growing fast. Not only that, the attack was getting heavier to make Chris' body unable to hold.

Of course, that's not just Chris' problem. Lightning element attacks have another effect in the form of making the body stiff. Then because Chris is a contractor-type magician, the weapon he uses is made of metal that has a good conductor with lightning elements.

Usually weapons like the one Chris has already had the effect of reducing the effects of magic attacks. Unfortunately, it was not enough because Charlmilia's magic was superior after making a contract with the Dragon King.

"Tempest!!"

Chris creates tornadoes that surround from all directions.

Because Charlmilia used to be a wind element user, she understood what Chris was planning.

Unfortunately..

"It's not enough!!"

With a single slash, the tornado disappeared.

Charlmilia intended to end the fight by slashing Chris with one of her strongest magic, but she did not find Chris.

"!?"

Charlmilia's instincts screamed loudly warning her she was in danger. Charlmilia reflexively avoided. A loud explosion occurred in its original place.

He then glanced up. There he finds Chris flying with the use of wind wings.

Charlmilia bit her lower lip. He never thought Chris would use flying magic.

"I guessed it. I admit you're getting stronger, but in exchange for that power you're also missing something else, am I wrong?"

"..."

Despite not wanting to admit it, Charlmilia's expression had already answered all of them.

For a long time everyone knew that each magic element had its own characteristics. Fire is power, land is endurance, wind is freedom, water is tranquility. Then of all that, the lightning element is the only element that represents speed, but at the same time disorder.

Before making a contract with Lapis, Charlmilia was greatly benefited because she was able to use three elements, but because now she could only use one, then she could not use the magic that she had previously mastered.

One of those magic is flying magic. Magic is the reason why the Ven Cellvain family was known to the entire empire.

"Even so, that doesn't mean I can't beat you."

Charlmilia's magic pressure is growing. His body let out a small spark that affected the surrounding air. The lightning that filled his rapier was also increasingly wriggling.

Charlmilia mounted a horse, then she activated the magic she created to fight the flying magic user.

"Lighting Leap"

Like teleporting, Charlmilia appeared in front of Chris. The magic he used was a version of Leap magic that he modified using lightning magic. Then coupled with the magic making a magic foothold in the air, Charlmilia could move freely in the air like Kuro used to.

Charlmilia attacked Chris with a rapier filled with lightning, no, it was more appropriate to call it a thunderbolt. Charlmilia's thunderbolts have the added effect of being able to chase a target, so even if Chris flies away, he won't be able to dodge.

"That's great, .sad you're still naive."

For the first time Chris smiled. It was a satisfied smile like an accomplished hope.

"Tempest Walls!!"

"!?"

Before Charlmilia's attack landed, a strong wind restrained Charlmilia.

Charmilia used her magic to force her through, but suddenly a light appeared blinding her gaze.

"Tempest Blast!!"

"Well!"

Without knowing what happened, Charmilia hit the ground hard. It is so hard that it makes a fairly large crater on the ground.

Thanks to the effects of the magic that channeled the pain to Doll, she was still able to come to her senses. He knew the attack was enough to make an impact, but what he wanted to ask was why would he be in such a position?

He still hasn't risen from his place. He could if he wanted to, but his eyes could not escape the things that were happening above the sky.

There, a knight with a full armor flew with wings made of wind. In his hand was a beautiful sword. That sight made him like a holy knight.

"Sacred Magic Art, Knight of Templars!!"

With that magic chant, it was a sign that Chrish was serious.

As a former brother, Charlmilia knew that Chris had the ultimate magic that he rarely cast. Even because it was so rare, the magic was to the point of being an exaggerated mere rumor.

This time, he saw the magic. And used against him.

"ahahahahah.. "

I don't know why Charlmilia was happy. He felt recognized by someone he didn't expect at all.

The turtle suddenly appeared near him and helped him up.

"so apparently... Actually you're not a contractor, but a user?"

This is something Charlmilia doesn't even know as a former brother. It's really sad to know when both of them are fighting as enemies.

"really. Lancelot is not a magic beast, but a magic arm."

Because Lancelot was a knight wearing a protector, many thought that Lancelot had a hidden body, but in reality Lancelot was nothing more than a complete armor.

(Despite that, how could Lancelot move?)

One of the things that distinguishes magic beasts and magic arms is how they move. Since magic arms are mostly tangible weapons, then they must be controlled by the body. This was why magicians who had magic arm were referred to as User-type.

(Wait a minute.).

Charmilia remembered that Lancelot had an extraordinary sword technique. You could even say no less than Kuro or Chris. But what he remembered most was the Lancelot style of sword technique that was so similar to Chris.

"..."

Is it just a coincidence? Or is it because Chris is the owner of Lancelot?

Charlmilia immediately broke out in a cold sweat. If the assumption is correct, then the power that Chris has aimed until now is no more than half of it.

"From your expression you seem to know what magic I used to control Lancelot. Yeah, correct.. The Magic Clone."

Magic Clone is a magic that creates a second body using magic energy. This magic is usually possessed by earth element magicians because they can create bodies using the ground (golem).

Of course, this magic is not easy and is categorized as high-level magic. Then because this magic continuously consumes the magic energy of its users, then this magic is not suitable in real combat.

This is what makes Chris' abilities so terrible. Charlmilia does not know what tricks Chris uses, but no doubt Chris' strength is different from before.

(What should I do to defeat him? Do I have to use Dragon Gear?)

Still controlling Lancelot alone Chris can fight a draw with Byakutura and Charlmilia at the same time. Because Chris has not divided his strength, then this time he faced with the real strength of Chris.

"How about we start our third act, daughter Charlmilia?"

"..."
