Chapter 113
As the announcement of the school badge rang out, Yanase Miko picked up the megaphone and loudly announced it.
"The winners! Luo Mio and Luo Xiao Kong!"
The next moment, a huge cheer erupted from the Sirius Dome!
"This is truly eye-opening!"
At this moment, the space screen above the Sirius Dome was replaying exciting moments from Luo Mio's match.
Liang Lai Mi Zi, watching the scene on the screen, said, "Facing the twelfth-ranked student from the Raven Black Academy, Luo Mio is displaying his absolutely overwhelming strength..."
——
In the private box seats of the Alcant Academy.
She has light brown hair and an innocent smile on her lovely face.
Those seemingly innocent eyes were fixed on Luo Mio as she left, until Luo Mio completely disappeared from her sight.
Beside her, Camilla Parette, a dark-skinned girl, stared at the Space Window.
Meanwhile, the Space Window was analyzing a series of data from Luo Mio's match just now.
Then, when the data from the collision between Luo Mio's final punch and "Storm Bite Annihilation" was analyzed, his expression turned slightly grim.
Camilla then said to the girl, "The data is out... Ainesda."
The girl named Ainesda looked at Camilla.
"Oh?"
Camilla looked at the data in the Space Window and said.
"That final blow could easily shatter Alti's barrier..."
Ainesda slowly opened her eyes wide, then burst into laughter.
"This is really..."
After laughing, Ainesda narrowed her eyes slightly and continued replaying Luo Mio's match.
Behind the two, two figures stood.
——
Raven Black Academy.
In the Student Council, Diluk's bright eyes had watched Luo Mio's matches countless times.
Watched, replayed, watched, replayed...
When Luo Mio's expression remained calm after the match, it was as if she didn't take Moritz seriously at all.
Diluk clicked his tongue when he saw it.
"Tsk... one troublesome person and thing after another..."
After deleting the Space Window, I closed my eyes.
Judging from the final scene... that guy definitely hadn't used his full strength yet...
His true strength is probably comparable to Ophelia's...
Opening his eyes, Diluk stood up and spoke to his secretary, Kashimaru Koronai was standing beside him.
"Kronai, tell my fortune."
"Ah... yes!"
The girl, who wore glasses, had a cute appearance, and a delicate temperament, reacted after hearing Diluk's voice.
"President... what kind of divination do you need?"
"I can't speak," Corona said weakly.
Diluk glanced at her, then turned away.
"What are the odds of Luo Mio winning between... Ophelia..."
"... Yes." Corona was puzzled, because this was the first time she had heard Diluk speak of the contents of a divination.
He knelt on the floor, took out the tarot cards from his uniform pocket, and arranged them on the floor.
"Phew..." Corona let out a breath.
"Then let's begin..."
After saying that, Corona closed her eyes and began to rearrange the cards with the touch of her hands.
Subsequently, a large amount of Stellar Power appeared around Corona, and a bluish-white Magic Circle gradually appeared around her, but she seemed unaware of it.
But at that moment—
"Ah-!"
Just as Krona was selecting cards and about to flip them over, a strange energy transformed into an invisible, sharp object that pierced through Krona's arm.
The intense pain caused Corona to stop her divination abruptly, and the Magic Circle and Stellar Power around her disappeared as well.
"Strange..." Corona looked at her palm with lingering fear.
Nothing sharp pierced her palm; it remained intact.
But the pain that had just been etched into her mind brought Corona a deep sense of fear.
"What's wrong?"
Diluk squinted at Corona and said.
Diluk had been looking at Corona since she screamed, his mind filled with questions.
Upon hearing Diluk's question, Corona recounted to Diluk what had happened during the divination.
"A sharp object..."
He glanced at Corona, who still looked shaken.
A failed divination... this is the first time...
Diluk's eyes flickered, and it was unclear what he was thinking.
——
"Um?"
At this moment, Luo Mio, who had returned to the contestants' room to rest, suddenly sensed a very strange and eerie feeling.
But that feeling then disappeared.
"What's wrong, Mio?"
Claudia looked at him with a puzzled expression.
"Ah," Luo Mio waved her hand, "It's nothing."
"Yeah..."
Seeing that Luo Mio was alright, Claudia put aside her doubts and then smiled, "However, it really is quite surprising."
"What's so surprising?" Luo Mio looked at Claudia in confusion.
Seeing Luo Mio seemingly oblivious to her surroundings, Claudia covered her mouth and chuckled.
"Um?"
Luo Mio tilted her head slightly.
Just then, the bell rang.
Luo Mio opened the Space Window.
Sylvia looked at Luo Mio with a light smile.
Congratulations on your victory!
Luo Mio smiled and accepted Sylvia's congratulations.
"Thanks."
"However," Sylvia, looking at Luo Mio.
"But what?"
Sylvia shook her head with amusement.
"This is the first time I've ever seen someone fight the Phoenix Star Martial Festival as if it were the King Dragon Star Martial Festival."
Hearing Sylvia's teasing words, Luo Mio chuckled.
Then he shrugged helplessly.
"Since they're so eager to know my strength, I definitely have to leave a lasting impression on them."
Sylvia laughed and said, "Then your deep impression might be imprinted in other people's minds."
"Uh-huh."
"Oh, right," Sylvia added.
"What?"
"Is your ability the same as Kong's? Can it be activated with just your will? And what is this ability?"
Sylvia launched a barrage of three questions at Luo Mio's head.
Claudia, standing to the side, also looked puzzled as she listened to Luo Mio's answer.
Luo Mio said with a laugh, "Can't you ask them one by one?"
Sylvia stuck out her tongue and then asked him, "What exactly is your ability?"
"Hmm..." Luo Mio thought for a moment and said to Sylvia, "There is no specific ability."
"Huh?"
Sylvia was puzzled.
"Then during your match, first there were silver flames, golden lightning, then twilight-like energy phantoms, and moonlit fangs."
Sylvia blinked.
"Do you possess the ability to have multiples?"
After hearing Sylvia's words, Luo Mio said, "Those are just my skills, not abilities."
"Huh?!"
This surprised Sylvia.
Even Claudia, who was standing next to him, stared at him with her mouth slightly agape in surprise.
"So what is your real ability?"
"Sylvia asked."
After hearing Sylvia's reply, Luo Mio remained silent for a while.
His deep blue eyes stared intently at Sylvia.
Looking into Luo Mio's eyes through the Space Window, Sylvia felt a strange sense of fear welling up inside her.
Then Luo Mio slowly opened her mouth.
"The Sword Holder will judge whether the world will be judged..."
Chapter Thirty-Five: Pandora
"The Sword Holder..."
Sylvia stared at him blankly.
Then a silence fell between the three of them.
"Pfft, hahaha~"
Then Sylvia broke the silence, sitting in her office chair and laughing loudly.
