Chapter 214
All she heard was Luo Mio Ernest putting their index fingers to their lips and shushing her.
"Huh?"
Seeing the two of them like this, Leticia was immediately puzzled.
After a moment of confusion, Leticia looked at Ernest and said in a panic, "Ernest! The Holy Sword...!"
"If you don't want Ernest to be abandoned by the 'White Filter Magic Sword,' then shut up."
Leticia was interrupted again before she could finish speaking.
"Huh?"
Leticia didn't understand Luo Mio's words and looked at him in confusion.
"What's the meaning?"
Luo Mio Ling pointed to the sheath beside Ernest.
Leticia looked in the direction of the defensive line that Luo Mio pointed out.
A faint crimson glow covered the sheath of the "White Filter Magic Sword" activated by Ernest.
"That is..."
Looking at the crimson glow, Leticia recalled the light emanating from the palm of Luo Mio's hand that had helped Pashiva regain her composure.
Luo Mio explained to Leticia, "This is one of my powers, and its main ability is to control consciousness."
"Controlling one's consciousness..."
After hearing Luo Mio's words, Leticia also showed a cautious look in her eyes.
Noticing Leticia's gaze, Luo Mio shrugged and said to Leticia, "I've put the 'White Filter Magic Sword' into a brief slumber."
"The 'White Filter Magic Sword' won't wake up for at least ten minutes, but it'll probably wake up just before the battle."
Then, Ernest laughed and said, "Thanks to Luo Mio, we can finally relax a bit."
"With this liberation, we can probably endure it for a while longer."
"However..." Ernest's gaze turned to Luo Mio.
Noticing Ernest's gaze, Luo Mio rolled her eyes and said, "Come on, you want to keep getting something for free?"
"Hehe."
After hearing Luo Mio's words, Ernest smiled happily.
Seeing Ernest's smile, Leticia sighed softly, then revealed a helpless expression.
"Since it's already happened, let's just let it go."
Then Leticia joined their conversation, a slightly relieved expression on her face.
"Speaking of which, starting a war without authorization... what will happen to the 'Holy Sword'..."
Upon hearing Leticia's concerns, Luo Mio and Ernest smiled at each other.
"Don't worry, Leticia."
Luo Mio said with a playful look in her eyes.
"This isn't a simulated war..."
"It's a battle of 'School Festival'!"
——
"The West! The Paladin, Ernest Felcrawl!"
As the commentator announced the announcement, loud cheers erupted around the ring.
Then, Ernest appeared on the western ring.
Unlike her relaxed demeanor in the logistics room, she reverted to her usual perfect, strong, gentle, noble, and magnanimous self.
"East! 'The Finality' Luo Mio!"
The commentator then announced Luo Mio's appearance.
"Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh—!"
When Ernest entered the game, there were loud cheers that echoed around him.
Not only tourists visiting St. Gallia D'Or, but also many students of St. Gallia D'Or were gathered around the ring.
As the challenger, the Student Council President of St. Freya, "The Finality" Luo Mio, the champion can only be "Holy Knight" Ernest, who is also a Student Council President.
The battle between the two has captured the attention of everyone in St. Gallia D'Or.
After all, on one side is the "Holy Knight" Ernest, who wields the "White Filter Magic Sword Demon Sword," one of the "Four-Colored Magic Swords" known as the Holy Sword, and is hailed Strongest Swordsman in the contemporary Asterisk.
On the other side, needless to say... Luo Mio, the "Finality," who can fight the "Witch of Solitude" without being at a disadvantage, and whose true fighting spirit has never been seen before.
The battle between the two can be described as a once-in-a-lifetime event!
Even during the "Star Martial Festival", you can't see such a scene.
Many tourists have even taken out their own filming equipment or used the Space Window to live stream.
Now, the battle between Luo Mio and Ernest has spread throughout the entire Asterisk.
Many tourists even felt very regretful.
I regret not going to St. Gallia D'Or.
Meanwhile, the five women— Leticia, Claudia, Sophia, Sora, Kato Kirin— who had used the logistics room as a spectator area, were also watching the two standing in the arena.
Sophia's expression was one of great inner conflict.
I don't know which side to support or cheer for.
On one side is her own older brother, and on the other is the chairman who has always helped her.
So my feelings right now are very subtle and complicated.
However, just as Sophia was struggling with this decision...
In the field—
Ernest also took out an activation device from the case.
Luo Mio narrowed her eyes slightly.
The next moment, the Pure Star Kou-type Weapon of the Pure White Sword appeared!
"White Filter Magic Sword!"
Seeing this, Luo Mio sighed helplessly in her heart and looked at Ernest with amusement.
I offered to help you relieve your urge, but I didn't expect you to be so unreserved.
So...
Luo Mio looked at Ernest, her eyes flickering slightly.
A pale silver flame ignited on her hands, and then silver gauntlets appeared on Luo Mio's hands.
"The Eternal Twilight Wolves"!
... I can't slack off anymore!
Looking at the two who were already ready.
The school badge sound rang out—!
"Battle begins!"
Chapter 137: Forcing You to Use Your Full Strength
"Battle begins!"
The battle has begun!
The next moment—
"Collapse--!"
A loud stomping sound came from both the east and west sides at the same time!
"Clang!"
Then the sound of a collision echoed across the arena.
The moment the battle began, Luo Mio and Ernest charged toward each other.
The sonic impact generated by the collision of the "Eternal Twilight Wolves" and the "White Filter Magic Sword" spread in all directions of the arena.
Luo Mio looked at the "White Filter Magic Sword," then forcefully swung her right hand outward, causing the pure white blade of the "White Filter Magic Sword" to bounce to the side.
With his left hand in a palm position, he turned his body to the side, bent his left leg slightly, and then swiftly struck towards Ernest.
"—!"
"!"
Seeing this, Ernest moved his wrist.
The "White Filter Magic Sword" that was deflected slashed diagonally toward Luo Mio.
"Whoosh—!"
The pure white sword light drew a crescent moon of light in the air!
Luo Mio's eyes flickered.
He stepped back slightly, his movements light and graceful, like a fairy whisking his whisk.
"Fuchen Step"!
The pure white blade of the "White Filter Magic Sword" slashed in front of Luo Mio, producing a clear, ringing sound.
"!"
But the very next moment, the instant Ernest retracted the "White Filter Magic Sword," he noticed something amiss.
His own body was strangely imprisoned.
My feet seemed to be locked in place, and I couldn't move them.
On the other hand, Luo Mio, who dodged his swift strike, arrived in front of him in the blink of an eye.
With his right leg raised high, his knee slashed through the air as he hurtled toward Ernest.
Seeing this, Ernest held the "White Filter Magic Sword" horizontally in front of him.
"Clang!"
Ernest narrowed his eyes slightly, and a tremendous force traveled directly through the "White Filter Magic Sword" into his arm.
However, Luo Mio's attack was not over yet.
He raised his knee, lowered it, and stepped onto the ring.
His right hand transformed into a hand blade, placed in front of his left shoulder, and then, with lightning speed, he slashed a crescent-shaped red-gold arc towards Ernest from the upper left to the lower right.
"Clang!"
The pure white blade of the "White Filter Magic Sword" blocked Luo Mio's attack.
A faint crimson tinge appeared in Luo Mio's azure eyes.
The instant the crescent-shaped slash was unleashed, Luo Mio stood up slightly and shifted to the left, her right hand striking out with her palm facing vertically upwards.
The pure white sword once again blocked the direction of Luo Mio's attack.
"Clang!"
Luo Mio leaned back and kicked out with her left leg.
"Bang!"
Seeing this, Ernest used his Stellar Power to create a defensive barrier in front of Luo Mio's kick.
However, Luo Mio's kick contained immense power.
