Chapter 166 Final
「It’s time. We will now begin the final match between Chinatsu Rokusai and Haruna Katsuragi. Both players, please come to the stage.」
A large stage decorates the last of the graduation festival. As the start time approached, an announcement was made by the broadcasting club. The stage, which was shattered, has been repaired and is brand new again. The spectators are already seated a long time ago and have been waiting for the match. They are really looking forward to this final match.
「It’s finally time desuwa. I will carefully watch the battle between Haruna-san and Chinatsu-san with my own eyes desuwa!」
「Therese-ojousama, you sit in the audience seating until the end, huh…」
Yes, they are really looking forward to it.
At the same time, Deris and Nell’s discussion seems to have come to an end. The two of them are now sitting together in the main guest room, looking down at the stage.
「Hey, Nell. Why are you hugging my arm?」
「I don’t know what you will do during the match. I’m staying close to you like this so that I can deal with it if you try to do something. By no means do I have other intentions!」
「I-I see…」
…… It looks like they are just flirting, but they are more or less watching the development of the match.
Without knowing the actions of their masters, Haruna and Chinatsu are going up to the stage. In this final, Haruna is finally allowed to use her Doggan Staff. Perhaps she’s already using Gravi, her gait and the sound of her footsteps are lighter than ever. On the other hand, Chinatsu has already pulled out her sword, and the flame magic sword is showing its crimson blade. Also, Chinatsu has tremendous magic power surrounding her body, so it can be guessed that she’s already using her Alma Divine Bless. Both of them are entering the stage after making perfect preparations.
「Chinatsu-chan, let’s do our best!」
「Haruna…」
Standing at the starting line, Chinatsu takes a deep breath once. While feeling her heartbeat, she fixed her gaze on Haruna and then opened her mouth.
「I, am definitely not going to lose. If you want to win, come at me with your all.」
「Yes, I will. I will do my best as usual!」
As she put her thoughts into words, her body trembled again.
(Yes, that’s right. Haruna has been looking at me as an equal and has been doing her best. Being proud by taking a step backward, I will never win like that. With this, now I can really face against Haruna…!)
The color of the air surrounding Chinatsu is changed. That said, it’s not something that can be seen with naked eyes. Still, Haruna smiled a bit when looking at such Chinatsu.
「Are both of you ready?」
「Yes!」
「Anytime!」
「Well then―― start!」
As the start signal was announced loudly, the two disappeared from the spot. Both of them rushed straight ahead without using any tricks. Haruna’s steps are powerful enough to crush the stage and a hole is created with each step she takes. On the contrary, Chinatsu’s steps are quiet and smooth. The sound of her footsteps is almost silent, but she’s faster than Haruna. In the blink of an eye, the two reached each other’s attack range.
「Haah!」

The first to be swung was the one with a longer reach, Haruna’s Doggan Staff. It is a combination attack of a blow and a slash with the weight reduced to the absolute minimum until the moment it hit. A sharp and quick attack. Due to the nature of Doggan Staff that it will repel magic power except for the user’s magic power, if it hits, it won’t end well for Chinatsu even if she is using Alma Divine Bless.
An attack of the Doggan Staff from the side that has a wide range. As the name implies, this vicious staff, which is used for the first time at the graduation festival, shattered everything together with a roaring sound. With a single swing, it diagonally broke the stage in half and lifted Chinatsu’s side into the air. With overwhelming violence, the perfectly repaired stage was destroyed in less than a second. Then, even before the screams of the stage-builders could be heard, the situation moved on.
(Haruna is serious. She is really serious…!)
Chinatsu, feeling happy, is standing on the stage that’s floating because of the impact. She keeps her posture low, inclines about 45 degrees as if to stick to the stage, and burns the figure of Haruna into her mind. Perhaps her heartbeat was transmitted to the flame magic sword, the flames lit on the blade became more intense and it seemed to be about to explode.
…… However, it’s not the time to use this yet. After all, both of them already made their next moves.
「Crime Lance!」
「Glitter Lance!」
Black spears appeared on the ground and white spears appeared in the sky. Those spears, with their number that’s bothersome to count, pointed their tips at each other and then fired. Flying at high speed, colliding, and scattering―― the magic fight is taking place in all space allowed for the graduation festival, and now the battlefield can only be distinguished as black and white.
At a glance, the clash seems to be equal, but in reality, it’s not. If people with good eyes were to see this, it’s clear that there are more white spears and the black ones are being pushed. If it comes to a simple clash of magic, there’s no way Haruna can beat Chinatsu.
(I knew it, Chinatsu-chan is amazing!)
Haruna, who’s using her Doggan Staff as a shield to prevent the white spears that have got through the black spears, is thrilled that Chinatsu is finally trying to win. For a long time, Chinatsu has always been standing up for others and never put her own feeling first. Such Chinatsu is seeking her own victory in this battle. Haruna is so delighted that she vowed to crush Chinatsu with her all.
Haruna pulls the Doggan Staff she had been using as a shield out of the stage and immediately raises it overhead. In the meantime, she’s avoiding with her own power and her light footwork is not the movement of a person with a large weapon.
「Hah!」
Then, Haruna slammed her Doggan Staff with all her strength. As for the target, it was the stage she was on, the other half of the stage that was split into two at the start of the match. This blow further shattered it, turning it into rubbles of various sizes and shapes. Among them, Haruna instantly chose a relatively large one and took it in her hand. After that, it’s not hard to guess what she will do.
「「Aahh…」」
Deris and Nell predicted the next development and let out their voices. Yes, it’s Haruna’s specialty.
――――Whoosh!
The rubble that Haruna picked up, which has about twice her height, was thrown at Chinatsu. The strength of the rubble itself may not be that great, but its size is a threat. With a great speed, it rushed toward Chinatsu while receiving the rain of white spears.
(It’s faster than before…!)
Chinatsu jumped from the stage into the air to avoid the rubble bullet. Then, the rubble collided with the half stage Chinatsu was on and shattered it. However, the threat doesn’t end there. Hidden by the first rubble, the next one was being fired. That rubble was precisely aiming at Chinatsu as if the place where Chinatsu would jump to had been predicted.
「――!?」
Chinatsu swings the flame magic sword and cuts off the rubble. The rubble was cut off easily like butter and was wrapped in flame as it passed by Chinatsu. ……However, the threat still doesn’t end. Behind the rubble, there was Haruna with her jet-black weapon. The Danger Detection skill strongly warned Chinatsu to be wary of behind the rubble, and the answer was this.
「I knew you would come!」
「As expected of Chinatsu-chan!」
The red sword and the black staff clashed against each other and the blast was scattered around.
