The Plan to Eliminate Loki Familia Was Asuna's Decision
Ais didn't dwell on Li Yu's weapon; instead, she looked at Li Yu with fierce determination and said, "Please go all out now, I'm counting on you!"
As soon as she finished speaking, a greenish-blue magical energy enveloped Ais's entire body, and she entered battle mode.
Seeing the magic emanating from Ais, a glint flashed in his eyes. He instantly copied her and then slowly said, "Let's begin."
Ais's True Magic is called Ariel, which is an enhancement True Magic. It involves wrapping herself in wind to increase her attack, defense, and speed, and also allows her to fly short distances.
Another Flight Magic? That's fantastic! Even though it only allows for short-term flight, it's enough. If anyone has a suitable one, Li Yu can teach it to them.
Moreover, this True Magic is used to temporarily boost one's attributes. Besides that, the fox has an even more outrageous True Magic, something like the Uchide no Kozuchi? It can forcibly increase one's True Magic.
Moreover, the True Magic possessed by everyone in this world is like a natural talent; it's exclusive True Magic that no one else can learn. But this doesn't include Li Yu.
The moment the opponent unleashed the True Magic, Li Yu copied it instantly. It seems Li Yu also needs to get his hands on that True Magic Uchide no Kozuchi.
The battle began, and without much conversation, Ais launched her attack. She flashed forward, her rapier slashing directly at Li Yu.
Faced with Ais's attack, Li Yu raised his knife with one hand to block. A terrifying force suddenly erupted from Li Yu's hand, and with a "clang," Ais felt a tremendous force coming from him.
She was blasted away by a terrifying force. The difference in power made Ais pause for a moment, but she was more excited than anything else.
Wow, that's amazing! Such terrifying explosive power! Thinking this Ais quickly adjusted her body in mid-air and then swooped down to attack Li Yu again.
Clang! Clang! Clang! The sound of swords clashing rang out in the area. Ais launched a series of attacks, but Li Yu blocked them all. Gradually, Ais realized that Li Yu had seen through every single one of her attacks.
Because Li Yu always managed to launch a counterattack first and accurately block her attacks, Ais felt increasing pressure, and her expression became more and more serious as the battle progressed.
Bete was watching from a distance, also narrowed his eyes when he saw that Ais's attack had made no progress. Was this girl really that strong?
Li Yu's classmates, however, were unfazed. It was nothing; this was just the beginning. They said, "You'll see your moves become his moves soon. This is only the beginning."
Seeing that she couldn't gain any advantage for a long time, Ais quickly retreated and distanced herself from Li Yu, and the wind element on her body increased.
"Wind, awaken!" Then everyone heard Ais chanting, and as her voice faded, the wind element surrounding her became even more intense.
Seeing this, Li Yu's lips curled up slightly, and he slowly spoke, "Wind, awaken!"
Upon hearing this, Ais froze, her movements a beat off. Seeing this, Asuna and the others immediately perked up. Lefiya, hearing Asuna's voice at that moment, exclaimed, "They're here!"
Then Lefiya saw wind elements wrap around Li Yu. This state was all too familiar to her; wasn't that exactly how Ais used True Magic?
What's going on? Why does the opponent also know this True Magic? The Loki Familia members felt their heads buzzing; what on earth was happening?
Before anyone knew what was happening, Li Yu made his move. He took a step forward and immediately launched an attack on Ais, brandishing his Tang Dao.
A huge, cyan-green wind blade was blasted out by Li Yu Li Yu, just like a sword aura. This move surprised Ais for a moment.
Is this even possible? Thinking about it carefully, it seems she could do it too? Her thoughts raced, and Ais vanished from her spot, choosing to avoid a direct confrontation.
Her True Magic leans more towards agility and attack speed, making her incredibly fast. Li Yu's attack didn't cause her any trouble; she simply dodged it with a slight movement.
After all, her body was petite and agile, making it extremely easy for her to dodge such an attack. Li Yu naturally understood this as well, and his move was merely an experiment.
He discovered that True Magic in this world is actually a way of manipulating magical power. How to develop it depends on the individual. Just like Li Yu, who can release magical power by making a single slash, Ais can also do that.
Ais disappeared, and Li Yu also disappeared from the spot. The two collided using high-speed movement, but this time it was Li Yu who was on top of Ais.
Ais could only defend herself with difficulty. Li Yu's airtight attacks were suffocating her, making her feel unprecedented pressure.
"What's going on? Isn't that Ais's True Magic?" Lefiya, who was watching the battle, was stunned. She never expected Li Yu's reversal to be so quick.
That guy named Li Yu actually used the exact same True Magic as Ais? And now he's overwhelming Ais in the fight. How come the situation is completely different from what she expected?
"Because Li Yu is best at learning. If you fight with him for a long time, he will learn all your moves and True Magic." Asuna didn't hide anything and explained the situation directly.
Li Yu's situation will eventually be known. Once Li Yu fights a few more times, many people will probably notice Li Yu unusual condition. So it doesn't matter whether he hides it or not.
Lefiya was completely stunned by Asuna's explanation. "Best at learning? Is that true?" she asked incredulously. "Even True Magic can be learned?"
She couldn't understand it. In her mind, True Magic like Ais's shouldn't be learned by others; it was exclusive True Magic. How could someone have learned it?
"Why not? Can't you learn any kind of True Magic?" Asuna looked at the other person with some confusion, not quite understanding why the other person would say that.
Could it be that the True Magic in this world has something special about it? Aren't they all True Magic? With Li Yu's talent, learning it would be incredibly easy, right?
"You all learn your True Magic from each other?" Lefiya suddenly remembered that these people's True Magic seemed to be the same; their True Magic didn't manifest during leveling up?
If that's the case, then everything makes sense. These people are completely different from them. Their True Magic can be learned from each other, so it doesn't seem wrong for people from another world to learn their True Magic?
"Yeah, the teachers taught us all the same things at school, don't you all do it the same way?" Asuna looked at Lefiya with some confusion.
Perhaps this is a good opportunity to learn about the state of True Magic in this world? Judging from her expression, there seems to be some hidden story behind it?
"Our teacher taught us... that we are different. The True Magic in our world is divided into innate True Magic and acquired True Magic, which is obtained after receiving Divine Blessing and leveling up. It is extremely rare." Lefiya hadn't expected that these people acquired their True Magic in this way.
No wonder, these people are using the exact same True Magic. You know, not everyone in their world possesses True Magic. It's extremely difficult to acquire True Magic, and the amount of True Magic each person can obtain is fixed.
Innate True Magic involves race and personal aptitude, and True Magic also requires chanting, which seems completely different from the True Magic of these people, who can release True Magic simply by raising their hands.
So it seems normal that the man has learned Ais's True Magic now? Even if he learns all her True Magic in the future, it doesn't seem like a big deal, right?
After listening to Lefiya's explanation, Asuna gained a basic understanding of True Magic in this world. Could it be obtained through upgrading the panel?
In other words, if their stats are upgraded, they might have a chance to gain True Magic, right? Thinking about this, Asuna couldn't help but feel excited.
This is similar to gaining skills after leveling up in a game; it's possible to gain skills in this world as well. Moreover, this kind of True Magic might be unique to them and the most suitable for True Magic.
Upon hearing this news, Asuna couldn't help but feel overjoyed, as were most of the others. They truly hadn't expected that leveling up would grant them True Magic.
Furthermore, there's another piece of information here: True Magic in this world is extremely rare, and it's even impossible to learn magic from other magic sources, but this doesn't seem to have any impact on them.
Because Li Yu immediately learned the True Magic of the girl named Ais, everyone's attention once again turned to the battle between the two in the arena.
Now, Ais is faster and stronger than Li Yu, and she has no chance to fight back at all. Li Yu, who has many talents, is unleashing his fighting power at this moment, causing Ais to retreat step by step.
Ais even saw many of her own moves in Li Yu's moves. At this moment, Ais felt like she was facing an enhanced version of herself, and this feeling was extremely uncomfortable.
This thought made Ais momentarily dazed. The next moment, Li Yu turned around and kicked Ais's armor hard, sending Ais flying several meters away.
"If this is all the strength you have, I think there's no need to continue." Li Yu said this after kicking her away, without launching another attack.
Hearing Li Yu's words, Ais steadied herself. After taking a deep breath, she said with a serious expression, "Sorry, I was distracted. Let's try again!"
Having said that, she launched an attack with great stubbornness. She knew she had chosen the right person this time—the enhanced version of herself. If she could defeat her opponent, she should be able to break through, right?
Greenish-blue magic enveloped her once more, and with a sudden burst of speed, she raised her sword and thrust it forward, this time concentrating the magic directly onto the rapier in her hand.
Furthermore, her speed increased significantly once again. She recalled the moves Li Yu had just casually unleashed, and this time she tried to imitate them and develop new moves.
Facing Ais's renewed attack, Li Yu also assumed a fighting stance. An interesting idea popped into his mind: he could use this newly acquired wind True Magic to do something fun.
The True Magic potential of this world is still too great. Ais's development of her own True Magic is far from sufficient. With this thought in mind, Li Yu slowly spoke, "Your development of this True Magic is far from enough, Phantom Sword Dance!"
As Li Yu finished speaking, he quickly brandished Li Yu Tang Dao, releasing a series of Tang Dao that then overlapped to form crisscrossing sword energies.
The sword energy erupted instantly, bombarding Ais with overwhelming force. Seeing Li Yu's sudden attack, Ais's pupils contracted. She had no time to think and hurriedly began to defend herself.
Ais was no longer thinking about attacking, but rather how to dodge Li Yu's sudden attack. However, the distance was too close, and she had no time to think, so she could only passively defend. In an instant, Li Yu's wind True Magic version of Phantom Sword Dance swallowed up the charging Ais. Lefiya and the Loki Familia's expressions changed drastically upon seeing this, and they couldn't help but shout, "Ais, be careful!"*3.
The Amazon twins and Lefiya were terrified, and the three of them rushed towards that direction. Bete on the other side also acted quickly, and the four of them rushed towards the battlefield together.
Asuna and the others were startled by Li Yu's attack and quickly followed, fearing that Li Yu might accidentally kill someone, which would be troublesome.
Hmm... we need to prepare for the worst. If Li Yu really kills Ais, then... we should kill these people too. Destroying the evidence is the most important thing!!
As they approached, the turquoise storm had dissipated, and the ground was crisscrossed as if it had been thoroughly dug up by something. They then saw Ais standing there.
At this moment, Ais's body was tattered, and her armor had many sword marks, all of which were made by Li Yu's sword energy just now. In addition, there were small wounds on Ais's face and hands.
Li Yu deliberately held back with that move, since there was no need to kill the opponent. If Li Yu really wanted to kill him, the attack would have been much more than that.
Lefiya, Tione, and Tiona were the first to rush over. They were also shocked to see Ais's miserable state, but after a careful inspection, they breathed a sigh of relief when they found that she was alright.
"Don't worry, I've already shown mercy. She can get some treatment when she gets back." Li Yu glanced at the group, then turned and walked towards Asuna and the others without looking back.
Seeing Li Yu about to leave, Ais hurriedly stood up and said, "Next time... can I fight you again next time? I want to become your apprentice and ask you to teach me how to become stronger!!!"
At this moment, Ais looked at Li Yu with burning eyes. She didn't care if her True Magic was learned; in fact, she wished Li Yu would learn it, because she saw more potential in Li Yu.
Furthermore, she was certain that her future breakthrough would depend on Li Yu; he had only just learned her True Magic and then quickly developed some new techniques.
This person is amazing! I want to become his apprentice! This is Ais's only thought right now, so no matter what, she wants to become Li Yu's apprentice because she's sure Li Yu can make her stronger!!
Hearing Ais's words, Li Yu was speechless. He turned to look at Ais, met her gaze, and seeing the seriousness in her eyes, Li Yu slowly said, "Let's talk about it later. Go back and take good care of your injuries. Becoming stronger isn't something that can be achieved overnight."
After saying this, Li Yu turned around and walked towards Asuna and the others. Asuna also stopped. Seeing that Ais was alright, they breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that they didn't have to kill all those people!
