A Journey Across the Myriad Worlds Beginning with The Irregular at Magic High School

William held the bow in his left hand, with his right hand resting on where the bowstring should be.

Bilibili!

Black lightning gathered in William's hand, forming a black arrow.

Call out!

After leaving the bow, the black arrow transformed into a jet-black beam of light.

Amidst a tearing sound like ripping silk, the Miasma that swept in from all directions like surging waves was directly pierced through by this towering pillar of light.

It was like a divine retribution, extremely spectacular!

"Boom--!"

Amidst the explosion, a beam of light descended from the sky and struck the ground, while a powerful gust of wind whipped up the scattered debris.

The sea of Miasma formed by the poisonous smoke was also blown away by this terrifying storm. The Miasma, which was originally kept in a solid state by the Star Power, began to drift away in all directions after losing the supply of the Star Power!

Now free from the Miasma's protection, Ophelia revealed her full form!

At this moment, a look of panic appeared in her red eyes.

His legs seemed to have lost all strength, and his knees buckled, causing him to kneel directly on the ground.

"Snap--!"

That was the sound of shattering!

"Splat--!"

That was a crisp sound!

A school badge bearing the emblem of Wolf College was split in two and fell to the ground.

"Ophelia, the school badge is damaged!"

"Match over! Winner: William Spengler!"

The mechanical sound promptly announced the victory in the match.

"Why!"

"Why would you risk the lives of others for the sake of victory!"

Ophelia's eyes were filled with grief; she could no longer close them.

Because whenever she closes her eyes, she thinks of the massive casualties caused today due to the spread of her abilities!

Her poison gas wasn't something that could be easily dissipated.

Even though she stopped outputting her Star Power in time, the poison gas would still linger in the air for a period of time.

"Ahhh...!"

Ophelia let out a mournful cry.

"Is this the fate that I can't escape?!"

William was a little stunned by the sudden question! The Dark Cloud that had been hanging over the sky also quietly dissipated.

Fortunately, the broadcast finally came through the long-awaited loudspeaker.

"Wow, this victory was really hard-won! I thought the worst was about to happen!"

Even through the loudspeaker, one could almost hear Yanase Miko's terrified voice.

"Yes, if it weren't for Spengler's ability to stop Ophelia's poisonous smoke from spreading in time..."

"I think this is a really big problem!"

"I think we'll need to really strengthen the protective measures in our stands after this competition."

Nana's tone also suggested she was still shaken.

"Alright, let's give a cheer to William Spengler, the winner of this match!"

Yanase Miko cut off the conversation from going any further!

The sounds from the broadcast booth seemed to reach Ophelia's ears as well.

She raised her sorrowful eyes and looked at the audience members who were still somewhat frightened.

Although it was still that familiar look in her eyes, it wasn't the hell on earth she had imagined.

She had assumed that most of the people were dead or injured, but they were still alive and well, just in much smaller numbers.

"You don't actually think I'd act without considering the consequences, do you?"

William's seemingly mocking voice rang in her ears!

"I noticed your lack of self-control a long time ago, so this situation was naturally within my expectations."

"That's why I sent the Thunder Beast to burn all that poison gas away long ago."

William had clearly stepped in to clean up the mess for this immature guy, yet he was being questioned; naturally, he wasn't going to have a pleasant tone.

Ophelia also fell silent, though no shame appeared on her face.

She simply stood up silently, bowed to William, and turned to leave.

But as she left, ripples began to appear in her red eyes.

William, standing still, also fell into deep thought!

Ophelia just said, "Is this her fate?"

His extremely poor control over Star Power also sparked a desire in him to investigate the reason behind it.

But considering his previous questions, the girl didn't answer any of them.

He didn't ask it again!

"Never mind, let's go back and ask Xinglu to see if she knows what happened!"

Recalling Fan Xinglu's indifferent attitude towards Ophelia, he always felt that Fan Xinglu should know something about Ophelia's background.
