Chapter 49: Battle in Progress
"Thanks, Yuto!"
Hyōtō Issei thanked Kiba, and then rushed towards the roast chicken.
Watching Bing Teng Yicheng walk away.
Kiba flicked his sword and looked at the two men.
"Then let's begin."
Having said that, he charged toward the two knights using his speed.
Roast chicken, I'm fucking here!
At this moment, their respective battles began.
Everyone knew what Hyōten Issei was thinking, and they all stepped in to help him travel unimpeded.
When two castles in Lysa blocked their way.
Without hesitation, the kitten intercepted the two of them.
Watch the two of them then begin their Wing Chun stance.
"Wing Chun, Kitten".
Just imagine the cat's incredible strength combined with the speed of Wing Chun punches—it's truly formidable.
Then the kitten beckoned to Lysa's chariot.
The mockery was off the charts.
The woodyard intercepted two knights, while the kitten fought two castles alone.
Yuberna flew in the air, looked at Hyōten Issei, and then raised her staff to aim.
The staff began to gather power.
"burst..."
"Thunder!"
Before Yubeluna could finish speaking, a sound came from nearby.
She quickly left her original position.
But it was too late; he was grazed by Akane's lightning.
"Oh my gosh~ I never expected the infamous 'Bomb Princess' to be someone who likes to ambush people."
"You're the same, Rias's 'Thunder Witch'."
"Oh dear~ Miss Luna, just to correct you, I'm not the 'Thunder Witch' but the 'Lightning Witch'!"
As she spoke, Akeno pointed her finger, and a bolt of lightning instantly struck Eubelluna. However, Eubelluna was no pushover; she too unleashed a high-level magic attack.
At this moment, the battle between the two queens began.
Only Rias and her two bishops remained on the scene.
Meanwhile, on Leisa's side, there were seven soldiers and a bishop, while Ravir was not participating in the battle and was merely there as a bystander.
Hyōten Issei looked at the seven soldiers blocking his way and felt somewhat troubled, as his target was Raiza.
Just as Hyōten Issei was preparing to make his move, it was a good time.
Lia appeared before Issei Hyoutou with Gaspar and Valerie: "Issei, if you want to do it, then do it boldly and without worry! Leave this to us."
"That's right, we and the minister will take care of this."
"Go for it, Issei-senpai!"
Hyōten Issei looked at his minister and his partner.
"Everyone..." Hyōten Issei murmured as he looked at his minister and his partners, but the next second he was overcome with passion again.
"Alright, Minister, I'm leaving things here to you, everyone!"
After saying that, Hyōten Issei directly led the soldiers of Raiza and charged towards Raiza.
He wanted to bring the victory to the minister.
The soldiers of Raiza did not stop him; instead, they looked at Rias.
To catch a thief, first catch his king; to strike a snake, strike its vital spot.
With the seven of us plus the bishops providing support from the perimeter, Minnan should have no problem taking on Rias and the two other bishops.
This match can be over as long as Rias is defeated.
As for Hyonten Issei?
Even a mere soldier is someone one's master can handle.
At this moment, Rias and her two companions faced off against seven soldiers and a bishop from Leiza.
Hyōtō Issei looked at Raiza not far away and rushed over without hesitation.
"Come on, you roast chicken!"
"How dare you!"
Leisa's defenses were slightly breached by the words "roast chicken".
He then charged towards Hyōten Issei, his entire body engulfed in flames.
... ... ... ...
In the student union.
Everyone watched the fight in the live stream.
"Wow...that's amazing!!"
Hiratsuka Shizuka watched the fight scene with shining eyes.
The interplay of lightning and explosions, the overwhelming power of swordsmanship, and the visceral impact of hand-to-hand combat.
This is what a true action-packed manga should be like!
At that moment, she also wanted to go in and give it a try.
Unlike Hiratsuka Shizuka's excited feelings.
Cang Na and Ye Xiao watched the live stream.
"Xiao, how long do you think it will take to finish?"
"That depends on when Lessa breaks down."
Ye Xiao smiled as he answered Cang Na's question.
After all, Lysa's ranking games resulted in more wins than losses mainly due to Phoenix's Undying Flame.
In a word, it's lousy.
. . . . . .
The Demon King Cinema.
Serjax and Ajax's virtual projections are chatting.
"Sejacs, how about we pick a date for Rias and my brother to get engaged?"
"Okay, but we'll have to wait until the tripartite meeting is over before we can discuss this."
After listening to Serjax's words, Ajax also felt that they made sense.
However, Ajeka didn't take the tripartite meeting seriously.
After all, it's such an important matter that the old Demon King faction wouldn't feel right if they didn't stir things up.
It's all up to Serjax.
Instead of dwelling on these things, Ajax started discussing with Serjax how to hold the engagement party.
Leisa's older brother sat beside him, saying nothing.
Because it's no use saying it.
It seems he might not be able to hold onto Serjax's powerful backer anymore.
... ... ... ...
The scene returns to the battlefield.
Kiba's figure was like a ghost.
The sounds of metal clashing and sparks flashing filled the air as Leisa's two soldiers stared at the woodyard in disbelief.
How can the man in front of me be so fast!
We're all knights, so why are you so many times faster than us?
Besides Issei Hyōtō, Kiba was the second most hardworking person during those seven days.
During the day, Kiba and Kanae learn breathing techniques.
He also practiced his swordsmanship continuously at night.
Abandon the guidance of magic, and use only the pure techniques of the sword and your own breath.
Kiba also figured out his own breathing rhythm.
"Phew~"
Kiba held his sword with both hands and exhaled a long breath.
As if sensing something, the two knights of Leisa quickly raised their swords to parry.
Ding~
The heavy sword and longsword in their hands broke in the middle.
They then realized that every cut made by the lumberyard was made in the same spot.
Before I could even feel anything, a sharp pain shot through my body.
Both knights were pierced.
And then...
[Sword birth!]
(The Demon Sword is Created!)
And so, Lysa's knight was swallowed by the demon sword, and then eliminated from the game, his body emitting particles.
[Leza Knights eliminated x2]
Following that, good news kept coming.
Queen Lessa is eliminated.
[Leisa Castle Elimination X2]
Above the sky, Akane's hands blazed with lightning like those of a thunder god.
There was a deep pit in the ground.
Yubeluna lay inside, her body surface still pulsating with electricity.
Now she finally understands why Akeno calls herself the "Lightning Witch"—the lightning contains the light attribute that demons fear most.
After being struck by Akane, not only did he have to feel the power of lightning, but he also had to feel the light attribute directly corroding his body.
Yubeluna took out a small, crystal-clear bottle.
The blood inside is like a jewel; this is the "Tears of Phoenix".
This subtle action was noticed by Zhu Nai.
"Oh dear, Miss Luna, I've had enough fun~ So please leave now."
"Lightning strikes!"
The lightning bolt struck Yubeluna directly.
Without a single scream, he was eliminated.
