..........................................
Linilla, sighing as she stretched out her arms, watched as everyone applauded, she could feel through the looks how the royal family was gritting their teeth in fury itself.
She just smiled genially as she put her weapons away in their holsters.
And she gave a thumbs up to the Duke of Windey who simply sighed in amusement.
Everyone was happy with the performance of the girl, who decided to retire after all, more participants had to continue their battles.
Natsuru who was analyzing everything that happened, thought to himself, how dangerous that technique was.
"Cosmic Flow, a series of sword techniques that Linilla created exclusively for her, is something that cannot be imitated easily, after all anyone seeks to cause pressure with their spiritual aura which is the basis of any conventional magic, but Linilla, who already has that absurd pressure of her divine power, has to find a method to be able to use it without destroying half a stadium" thought the Duke while observing those perfected reflexes of the girl when attacking her opponent.
"Controlling the flow of divine energy in a perpetual and infinite way, as if it were cosmic, that's how the six fangs of that cosmic style were born, it's interesting to see how she managed to create all those fluid movements" Natsuru finished thinking with a big smile, while looking sideways at the royal family.
Alexander was clutching his hundred, as he felt like his mind seemed to want to explode, after all they were now in complete danger.
After all, without the power of the Duchy, without economic or political power of their own and with the Empire gaining attention thanks to Linilla Erder's involvement, they seemed to be in complete danger.
Sarasha was biting her nails, completely hysterical.
Mayasha for her part is calm, after all, she cared little for the royal family... after all she is a witch, possessing this body of this stupid princess.
After all, the moment she tried to invoke the reincarnation witch, she sealed her destiny and now this body was hers.
She was not going to follow the orders of these stupid humans.
The nobles who supported the royal family were completely nervous, after all they were only a few and the vast majority supported the Duke of Windey, some even blatantly declared the Duke to be the new king of the kingdom.
The Duke is perfectly capable of forming a rebellion at this time.
Everyone in general was amazed by that spectacular girl, then followed more fights of different types, all fighting each other and of course, some passed, others ended up losing and being dethroned to be heroes.
An unfair judgment with dreams, but one that must be applied, you can not leave the safety of people in incompetent hands.
Linilla only moved her weapon trying to replicate the cosmic style - [Cosmic Flux - First Fang] - her dagger imbued with energy of that yellowish color moved like a wave through Linilla's movements to cut through the air.
-Well..." Linilla commented to herself as she looked up, with a seriousness on her face she seriously awaited her second battle of the day.
-NOW WE CAN BEGIN! THE NEXT FIGHT IS LEILA VS. LINILLA! -shouted the commentator with a big smile on his face waiting for how the blonde girl would perform after all.
The girl present had a big shield imbued with spiritual energy, she was completely serious, she knew perfectly well that this is a complete ruse of the royal family and her master, who supports the same.
After all she observed Linilla's fighting style, she knew perfectly well that she is the perfect counter.
So I knew that everything was tricked to save the little honor of this family, do not bag all the heroes in the same bag, but unfortunately there is little they can do nowadays, after all they have the duty to defend this continent.
Including these scumbags.
I look sideways at her opponent, Linilla Erder, it seems that she will go all out, a girl who will give her all until the end, that made Leila a little happy.
And she took out her shield to put it in the middle with a wild smile, both of them will go all out.
Linilla tightening her grip on her weapon observed that the girl had two weapons, a rapier sword and a large shield, the latter being her main weapon.
Manipulating her divine energy, she began to move around the arena trying to find a weak point, for the rest of the people could observe a yellow beam moving around the girl with the shield.
They could even see how that beam collided with the shield, going with too much speed, but in a moment, Linilla stopped and moved slightly away from Leila with a serious look, because the shield was completely clean and undamaged.
All because behind that shield there were several magical symbols, Leila, for her part....
-My arms..." -she felt too much pain in her arms, as if many wolf stampedes were crashing against her, but she still clung to her shield.
Linilla would be, she watched her weapons and then the shield, this will be infinite until one of the two is exhausted, it's like the paradox of the shield and the sword... but....
"If I can't with a sword..." Linilla was in the process of thinking of a plan, her brain sped up to full speed and her pupils dilated.
Again, she lunged in the direction of the same shield, but this time, instead of using the sharp part, she started to lunge at fast speed towards the shield, Leila, on her part, was resisting Linilla's every onslaught which seemed different.
People were puzzled because Linilla seemed to be at a complete disadvantage due to the fact that she is spending her energy for no reason, although the smarter ones understood what she was trying to do, but... Will she be able to hold on with enough spiritual power?
Natsuru was puzzled... it will be that he will release his proposed limits to his humanity.
Linilla who kept throwing many punches in different ways, but all to the same point, this time she was using her cosmic style, with a smile making Leila slightly surprised by that unusual behavior.
When suddenly she heard a cracking sound that made her alarmed, because when she looked out of the corner of her eye she observed completely dumbfounded how the shield was fracturing, so she quickly diverted the girl, making the audience focus their eyes.
"This is impossible!" thought Leila, completely amazed at how cracked her shield was, it was supposed to be impossible to destroy a spiritual weapon.
Linilla glaring with a gold-plated gaze, made Leila's survival senses ignite.
..........................................
-Molding and energy control applies to all energies of this world, including yours, but it is terribly difficult to master," Natsuru commented calmly, while guiding Linilla, who made a poor attempt at an arrow with comical tears.
-Really, this is difficult," Linilla commented as she tried to keep the energy arrow, but it exploded in her face.
-It is, but the more you practice, the more control you will gain of your aura, and the time will come when you won't have to put any shackles on yourself, mastering all your divine aura... besides, it will be useful in emergencies,"
Natsuru said while sitting on a nearby chair.
- You must learn to control your emotions, as well as your divine aura, the moment you do... -Natsuru's last words, which were unheard and sounded more like whispers, made Linilla's eyes widen.
..........................................
Linilla stomping the ground, smiled defiantly while putting away one of her short weapons, that because with the other one, manipulated with divine energy....
It had become a spear, a spear that looked like a whole whirlwind of energy.
"This will be the last blow... if between a sword and a shield, it is impossible to overcome each other... then how about this... a spear!", shouts internally Linilla while stepping heavily on the ground, cracking it on the spot, revealing the spear, which seemed to be surrounded by a whirlwind of energy.
Alarming Leila who began to create spiritual energy in her being, creating the strongest shield she could make, Linilla for her part narrowed her eyes as a great energy made its presence known, causing those present to watch in stupefaction.
[Cosmic Flux - Custom Fang: Spear of Atheim]!
Atheim, one of the existing goddesses in this world, is the goddess of the spear, of destruction itself, which will pierce through all evil and restore peace... of the few who survived the divine rain and received the grace of the human Monarch.
With that spear...
-¡! -Leila placed the shield in front of her, but the spear began to crack little by little, until finally it was completely destroyed and wounded her shoulder, observing out of the corner of her eye the short sword, stuck in her shoulder.
Linilla, smiling wildly, pulled out her other short sword, lunged towards Leila, who had her weapon at hand, and both clashed their weapons, creating large stadiums of energy.
And before everyone watched as several stadiums of energy in all parts of the arena, the woman of powerful presence, only smiled more as he observed the behavior of that young woman with golden hair.
-I WILL WIN! -Both girls shouted full of adrenaline, while they clashed their weapons for the last time to finally see who would win over the other.
But one of the weapons was destroyed, implying that one ended up yielding to the other, and that was?
Leila, who observed how her weapon was destroyed in pieces, and observing how Linilla's weapon was placed on her neck, ended up sighing and finally surrendering raising her hands with positivism, at the end of it all... they fought giving everything of both of them.
And that could be noticed in Linilla's arm full of blood, it was her own blood...
Linilla, breathing heavily, clung to her shattered arm, causing Natsuru and her other allies to be alarmed to see her severely wounded, but the girl with a satisfied smile extended her hand to the defeated girl.
She only sighed and held her hand with a pleasant smile, after all it was a good fight.
Everyone celebrated with great joy, although the few nobles who supported the royal family were terrified and clenched their fists, completely frightened by what they were trying to avoid.
So finally they couldn't avoid it, that because... the queen of Menchester was watching everything.
And she was completely happy with what she was observing.
-THE WINNER OF THIS MATCH IS LINILLA ERDER! -shouted the commentator with a great emotion making the audience applaud, being this the last match of the morning.
Everyone present was joyful and celebrating the affair, although few were in a cold sweat and angry about it, although one of those present was watching with an analytical look while his albino hair covered part of his sight.
..........................................
Linilla was thoroughly enjoying her victories as she ate her lunch quietly, together with Natsuru who only sighed with a raised eyebrow.
-Are you really that hungry? -she asked with a raised eyebrow, looking at her student who was just smiling happily.
-Of course! After all, I even destroyed my arm in the process, you know? -Linilla pointed out the obvious, the more he had his arm completely healthy again, after all, this world is very efficient in its magical advances.
-Hah... what am I going to do with you," said Natsuru lightly, with a half smile on her face as she lightly stroked the girl's locks.
Something that made Linilla blush, her blue eyes met blood red orbs, both blushed slightly as they fixed their gaze on each other, Linilla's lips trembled slightly at a sensation that was born inside her.
Meanwhile Natsuru, on her side, her desires were running down her back, both hands were trembling slightly as they were sweating, a blush was noticeable on both young men, the temptation of both who seemed to slowly attract each other....
Natsuru's self-control was slowly getting lost as he lightly touched Linilla's cheek, she tried to hide by letting herself be touched, but she couldn't hold the urge either... that is until....
-Oh my, sorry to bother you, but I really wanted to meet the girl who has cheered everyone up equally," a specific person made both Linilla and Natsuru turn to look at him, one serious and the other in mild shock.
She seemed to have heard him before after all.
-What the hell are you doing here...Payne? -Natsuru questioned, completely alert to the man present in front of them, one of the finalists to be a royal hero, a viscount of the kingdom and above all, a supporter of the Payne family.
A supporter of the royal family.
Linilla felt slight tremors in her being, as if they wanted to kill the person in front of her, but she just saw how he extended his hand to greet the girl with long blond hair, who looked slightly at the man present.
-I am Payne West, Viscount of the kingdom of Winchester," smiling with a slight affection, he observed the girl, but his eyes seemed serious, unfriendly, lacking any feeling.
So by reaction and instinct he hit Payne's hand, surprising everyone present.
-You... don't touch me," was the only thing Linilla said while her irises were bright golden, while the irises of the gentleman present shone purple.
