Hard Work Will Never Betray Me - CH 75

Begin!”

At the same time as Jet’s signal, I activate my “Clothing” and “Shogun’s Armor – Silver Armored Aegis”. With each beat of my heart, my whole body becomes full of power, and my vision becomes clearer. At the same time, a silvery-white magical power giant, imbued with the magic of [shock], envelops my entire body.

Captain Siegfried did not jump in at the same time as the signal, but activated the blades in the gauntlets of his arms and began to imbue them with lightning-attribute magic, which is relatively rare in this world. The blades, each about 30 centimeters long, gradually became electrified.

–The blade begins to flicker blue-white with a bachi-bachi …… sound.

“It’s called …… ‘Thunderbolt,’ and  it’s using a rare lightning attribute.”

“The lightning is fast. You’ll get burned if you don’t take it seriously.”

“I’m not so   weak that I can take a knight’s humiliation.”

I commend you for not being too proud when you’re still a kid. …… but that’s it. I’ll  beat you!”

The characteristic of “body enhancement” by lightning attribute magic power is that it is just  spead . The power is the same as in ordinary “physical enhancement,” but because the speed of nerve transmission increases by an order of magnitude, reflexes and motor nerves are activated abnormally.

The two are known as “Thunderbolt,” so they must actually be quite fast.

Since neither of us had moved from the starting  point yet, the moment I was about to release a “shock bomb” to launch a standoff attack from a long distance.

Blade clad in lightning flashed across my eyes.

……!

—-Badgichichich!

In the nick of time, the “Shogun’s Armor – White Silver Armored Aegis” was   activated in time and i was  succeeded in blocking the attack. It was too fast for  me  to react.

The blade, clad in purple electricity, was deeply embedded in a wall of magical power that was at least one meter thick. The blade is a full meter in length. In other words, the “general’s armor” does   not  stop  his attack

……Hey, you’re good, aren’t you?”

The cold sweat is pouring down my back.

The most important thing to remember is that I can’t let my ground dawn

The “thunderbolt” is faster than the Hokusho Bujinryu.

Not only that. This seemingly unassuming attack easily penetrated the armor of the “Shogun’s Armor,” which boasts top-class defensive capabilities among all defensive magic, as well as the armor of the “Silver Armored Aegis,” which is a highly compatible version of it.

Aside from its  power and strength, his  spell is probably one of the strongest in the Empire in terms of  raw power.

I haven’t seen  no one who was able to block my attack  at first sight  beside the Commander there.

“Jet prevented this? ……”

The actual fact that I’ve actually crossed blades with him, I know exactly what I’  am  doing  . The actual fact that the actual fight was actually  done , I know that. We were both looking for the right moment to give it our all.

In the end, thanks to Jet realizing my true identity, we were able to save the day, but if we had continued the battle, it might have been me who would have lost. It was almost a miracle that I was able to advanced in  the battle  in  that situations

And the fact that Jet had once prevented  that guy  from killing me the first time made me realize again how great Jet was as the leader of the Special Division, and at the same time, it gave me a chance to find a ray of light.

Jet is a power-type warrior. His speed and technique are top class, but if I had to describe his fighting style in one word, “monstrous strength” would be the most appropriate. He is not a “soft but strong” or “faster than his opponent” type of fighter. The reason why he was able to prevent Captain Siegfried’s super-speed assault. That is why he was able to prevent Captain Siegfried’s super-speed assault. —-

“–‘floating mine air.”

“Ggggghh……!”

It seems my reading was correct. The air mine is a stationary impact missile that I set up with minimal movement just before Siegfried tried to attack me again, and it successfully prevented Siegfried’s rush attack and  got him at the same time.

“Ha-ha, you noticed after all!”

Jet, with his arms folded, was shouting at us. The face I caught a glimpse of was contorted in a smile that was truly amusing.

Why was Jet, who is not a lash type, able to prevent Siegfried’s attack?

It was because he was so fast that he himself could not keep up with the counter.

—- “Floating Mine Air “. The actual “Minefield” is a technique of setting up “shock bombs” in the air as if to ambush  enamy . This is another technique that I have developed over the past few years, and one that I had developed for times like this when I was dealing with enemies who were faster than me.

“Hey, Mr. …… ‘Thunderbolt’. I haven’t taken any damage at all yet.”

There was no way that the imperial knight would  lose like this.

“I don’t know  why you  said this or whatever it is, but you’re going to get yourself into a trouble, you know.”

“Well , came and try ”

I think I’m disgusting, but this is also for the sake of passing the exam. I had to make the battle more intense and give them a lot of opportunities to see me in action.

I’ll apologize later on, I made up my mind, and finally pulled out the magic sword Raikiri from my waist and readied it. He lunged at me, knocking me off balance once again, and then I delivered the “Zubaku” blow.

he  kill  me …… a hundred times!

I’ve already died once, I thought to myself as I  used my “Silver Armored Aegis” to full power again and laid down the “Air Mine” ,

But he’s not exactly an imperial knight either. It seemed that he would not let  me  use the same move so easily.

“Sha oraaaa!

Siegfried rushes forward again with both arm gauntlets crossed in front of his chest. As usual, I could just barely follow  him  with my eyes at high speed.

The “Air Mine” i  used  is avoid ……?　—-!”

It’s so   navie !

First, Siegfried’s right hand attack is wielded and the ” Air Mine” is drowned out.  Then, at a moment’s notice, Siegfried’s left blade, which dashed into my bosom, struck  in my “Silver Armored Aegis”. This time the blade is longer: a blade of shiden maryoku, extended and deployed from a 30-centimeter blade of substance, slashes through my armor!

“!”

I just barely managed to avoid it by releasing a shockwave from my leg to   to keep my distance, but I got a little cut on my cheek!

“–Haaaaah!”

I stopped breathing unintentionally.  His speed is absolutely terrifying. If it was just the tip of the blade, wouldn’t it have been close to several hundred kilometers?

Still, I was surprised. I didn’t expect him to suddenly weave a counter-breaking attack in the next attack after being used a counter technique. Moreover, the power of the second blow has been further increased, and the attack radius has been extended. The second attack is even more powerful, and the attack radius has been extended.

This knight of empire for you .

“How is it?”

“…… Actually, you’re strong. It’s very hard to  fight with. You can  fight with Hokusho Bujinryu, which is known for its speed, to this extent.

Hokusho Bujinryu is indeed fast, but Bujinryu’s strength is not only its speed. It has a power that far surpasses that of ordinary people. It is a technique that can cut down even the most seasoned people . A wealth of techniques to deal with any enemy and play tricks on them. All of these skillfully interact to form a whole, like a work of art, in Hokusho Bujin-ryu.

The ultimate all-rounder,

In contrast, Jet and Siegfried are unrivaled in pure power and speed. They have mastered a single specialty and are the ultimate specialists, so to speak.

And what would happen if I, a generalist, and a specialist were to fight on the same field? The answer is, as I don’t have to tell you, the specialist wins.

Therefore,  all rounder  like me should not fight in the same ring with specialists. They should not be allowed to fight. That is why I am an all-rounder and the Hokusho Bujinryu.

But even though I have surpassed my father, I still lack the ability to do it well. My father, who is still far ahead of me in this respect, would probably be able to do it well, but I have not yet reached that level.

All I can do is push.

—-, but that’s okay for now. No matter how monstrous I am, no matter how fast I am, I have the ultimate “magic” that no one can beat!

I put down my magic sword, Raikiri, and loudly announce to Jet  .

“I apologize in advance, “…… Jet. I’m sorry!　But I don’t want to lose!　I’ll keep the damage to a minimum, but if it breaks, I’m sorry!

What?　　Eberhard, what are you  saying ?

I  used my “flying wings” and floated up to the ceiling of the training ground.

The “impact bullet” will not work, as it will either be avoided or cut  down . The same goes for fighting. You can’t catch  me with speed.

, I can just strike him all at once with a surface attack that he can’t avoid. Although less powerful than a point attack, it should be powerful enough to defeat Siegfried if I pour my vast  red Aegis” only in my right hand in the air and put in magic power to the limit. The “Silver Armored Aegis” is a combined technique of the “General’s Armor” and “Impact”. The right hand, which has stored an enormous amount of magic power, glows a silvery white color, and the shockwave that overflows vibrates the air in the drill hall.

…… and, in an effort to prevent the aftermath from destroying the training ground,  I points  fist toward the ground and unleashes a new technique that  i  just thought of!

—- “Gale”！！！！

—-Dogooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

A tremendous storm so fierce that I can’t keep my eyes open, and the largest shockwave in my blows Siegfried, who was about to  counter me on the ground, away!

——–!!!”

No sounds  are heard.

The smoke clears, and as I land on the ground, I see the ground of the training ground with a huge  crater that looks to be 10 meters in diameter, Siegfried, who is passed out with white eyes at some distance from the crater, and the examiners, all of whom are staring at me with open mouths,  like dumbfounded.
