81. Darkness and Sword King Festival [12]

I assumed Seigan no Kamae, and Idol-san assumed the unique Two-Lance stance.

Our gazes intersected and she made the first move.

「Flying Lightning God – 50 Million Volts!」

The bluish electricity on Idol-san’s body swelled remarkably.

Moreover, looking closely, the wounds sustained on her body healed every passing moment.

Rapid stimulation of cells seems to enhance natural healing ability.

「You have a really outstanding soul dress!」

「Fufu, there’s still a lot more to come!」

She recovered completely in an instant, and

「50 million volts -〈Lightning Bird〉!」

She swung the lance in a large arc, which released more than a hundred lightning birds.

Numerous long-range attacks which is my weakness.

However,

「-That technique won’t work on me anymore.」

The flock of birds was extinguished the moment they touched my darkness.

This darkness even defended that guy’s straight right.

In terms of output, mine is superior.

「N-No way!」

I took advantage of the mere slight opening where she was taken aback, and closed the distance in one step.

「Eighth Sword – Yatagarasu!」

「Kuh, Thunder Style – Heavy Thunder!」

『Eight』vs『Ten』slashes. As a result of both of our slashes clashing,

「Kyaa!」

Sharp blade wounds ran across Idol-san’s shoulders and thighs.

The eight slashes I fired pushed through her Heavy Thunder with overwhelming power.

She squinted her eyes in pain and reflexively jumped back.

Without letting up, I immediately closed the distance,

「-HA!」

I instantly swung down my sword from an overhead position.

「Guh…」

She crossed the two lances and somehow managed to stop my blow.

Sparks flew as we fiercely locked swords – a direct contest of strength.

「UOOOOOOO”O”O”O!」

「HAAAAAAAAAAAAA!」

We both roared.

「-RA!」

「N-No way!」

Idol-san, being outmatched in the contest of strength, was blown back greatly.

She organised her posture mid-air and landed safely on the stage.

「To lose in strength with 50 Million Volt Flying Lightning God… What extraordinary physical strength! Is it a strengthening-type soul dress…?」

Idol-san bit her lower lip and asked with a frustrated expression.

「Ahaha… Unfortunately, I still don’t know.」

What kind of ability does my soul dress have?

I wouldn’t know until I manifest it.

「Going further than this will put a greater burden on my body, but… I will do anything to win against you!」

Idol-san opened her eyes wide with fiery spirit burning in them and,

「Flying Lightning God – 70 Million Volts!」

Even higher voltage electric shock was carried through her body.

With her beautiful white hair standing on end, she swung her azure lance with all her strength,

「How about this! 70 million volts -〈Moby Dick〉!」

She unleashed a colossal white whale with an inflated stomach.

Towards the white whale that has accumulated a vast amount of lightning in it’s abdomen,

「Fifth Sword – World Judgement!」

I cut it apart without hesitation.

At that moment, Idol-san smiled with confidence of victory.

「It’s over – Diffuse!」

Violent lightning, incomparable to the previous one, enveloped my whole body.

「Guh!?」

The sound of violent electric discharge hit my eardrums, and my vision was dyed pure white.

The stage was scorched pitch black and a peculiar odor permeated the air.

「If it’s this… Even with the protection of『darkness』, you–?!」

Idol-san’s expression changed from expectant to shock, and from shock to despair.

「Tell me this is a lie…」

Clad in jet-black – I was unscathed.

「I feel slightly numb, but I seem to have been able to defend it somehow.」

「Mon… ster…」

She simply stood there completely defenceless as she whispered something.

I thought it would be too improper to attack at this timing, so I called out to her.

「-It’s my turn next.」

「……」

When I dropped my center of gravity and put power into both feet,

(This is…)

Suddenly, my vision swayed, and the darkness that covered my body greatly fluctuated.

(Damn… Is it time…?!)

Today was the first time I used this much『darkness』.

Thus I still don’t know the exact『duration』of this power.

「You haven’t completely controlled that power yet, huh…」

「Yeah… It’s a little embarrassing to admit, but it is as you say…」

It’s only been two weeks since I manifested darkness.

Even though I am able to manipulate it a little, I still don’t have complete control.

「I see… In that case, I still have a chance to win!」

As Idol-san said that, she held the two lances up high.

Then – a huge lightning fell on the tip of the lances from the cloudless azure sky.

「What!?」

She began to speak slowly, looking away from me as I widened my eyes in surprise.

「As far as I can tell, Allen’s『darkness』seems to have a duration. Then I’ll make you exhaust that darkness until your spiritual power runs out!」

Idol-san held up the two shining lances and laughed fearlessly.

「-Here I come, Allen!」

「Aa, come!」

And then,

「100 Million Volts -〈Imperata Glome〉!」

She fired a spiral lightning strike with enormous force.

On the other hand, I focused the jet-black darkness on the edges of my sword and created a『pseudo-black sword』.

「Sixth Sword – Dark Roar!」

The black Dark Roar clad in darkness flipped over the stone stage. The two attacks, unleashed with all our might, clashed in the middle.

Darkness and Lightning raged violently. Intense shock waves assailed the venue.

And then, the azure lightning strike and the black Dark Roar disappeared at the same time.

((E-Equal…?!))

When we ascertained that the attacks had disappeared, we both dropped to our knees at the same time.

「「Haa haa…」」

I desperately took in oxygen into my body and somehow managed to hold on to my consciousness.

The darkness cladding my body had already vanished.

The black Dark Roar just now seems to have exhausted all my spiritual power.

(But, Idol-san-san should also be at her limit due to that attack just now…)

And when I raised my head,

「Flying Lightning God – Limit 100 Million Volts!」

Idol-san, who turned into azure lightning, stood up slowly.

(She can still bring out such power…?!)

I couldn’t help but remember the gods due to her appearance. It took my breath away.

Then she put together the two lances in front of her chest and whispered.

「-Glome Alchemia.」

Violent thunder produced heat which melted the two lances and fused them together.

And a large sword was created.

「Lightning Sword – Indra」

The blade, the hilt, the guard, which were all pure white, emitted overwhelming pressure.

Idol-san placed the sword in front of her navel and assumed Seigan no Kamae.

I was in a desperate situation in which my spiritual power has been exhausted, darkness disappeared, and my body riddled with wounds.

But for some reason, strange emotions swirled in my mind.

(Fuu, haha… Hahaha…..!)

I couldn’t help it – It was fun.

It’s fun to fight with every last bit of my power.

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

It’s fun to fight against an opponent whose limit I cannot see.

It’s fun to fight with my life on the line.

(Aa…『Battle』…… is so much fun!)

At that moment, it throbbed.

Not my『Soul』.

But my Blood, Flesh, and Bone throbbed greatly.

「……!?」

The『something』which had been blocking the『path』for the longest time, fluctuated. The『path』seems to have opened.

「This sensation…?!」

The next moment, from the very depths of my body, a huge amount of darkness overflowed at an unprecedented scale.

Non-stop, the stage was dyed jet-black all over.

I slowly stood up and assumed Seigan no Kamae.

「……」

「……」

It was quiet.

There was no need to exchange words anymore.

At the end of the silence which felt like hours,

「-UOOOOOOO”O”O”O”!」

「-HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!」

We started running at the same time.

The jet-black darkness and pure white lightning intersected in the center of the stage.

And then,

「Ga, ha…」

There was a deep sword wound in my chest.

Searing pain assailed my chest.

(The wound is… too deep…)

Continuing combat…… will be difficult……

(But not yet! I can’t fall here yet! I must not!)

I swallowed the blood which rose from within, and brought my consciousness under control by gritting my teeth hard.

Then, I heard rustling of clothes from behind.

(Damn… Idol-san can still fight…?!)

Mustering my willpower, I turned back.

The moment I tightly grasped the sword with my trembling hands and managed to assume Seigan no Kamae,

「Allen Rodore… It’s your win…」

The lightning sword, Indra, snapped right in half, and Idol-san slowly collapsed on her back.

Silence enveloped the venue.

「…………… IDOL LUXMARIA, UNABLE TO FIGHT! WINNER – ALLEN RODOREEEEEE!!!」

The commentator declared the results in a loud voice that could even reach the heavens.

At that moment, the audience erupted in cheers.

「Amazing! What a fight! They’re both still first-year students?! Unbelievable!」

「Allen Rodore… How did such a terrifying swordsman remain nameless until now…?」

「That『Prodigy』Idol Luxmaria, was defeated! We need to publish Extra News! I’ll immediately write this story!」

After receiving tremendous cheers and thunderous applause, I responded by raising my right hand up.

At the end of a serious battle in which we both staked all our strength, I won against the remarkable『Prodigy』Idol Luxmaria.
