Chapter 90: The Final Of Ice Pillars Break Male Division

In the evening the final round of Ice Pillars Break male division will be held, both contestants are an ace in their respective School. Ichijou Masaki from Third High and Arthur Spencer from the First High, surprisingly the ratio of female audiences is higher than male audiences.

Well, it was quite understandable because both of them except for their talent in magic their appearance can be considered as handsome too even if they just wear their respective school uniform, different from the female division which is more like a fashion show rather than a magic tournament.

Masaki and Arthur will compete for the first place and the contestant from Second High and Fifth High will compete for third place. This is the second time Arthur stood in the final round after he successfully bringing home the first place of Speed shooting competition but this is the first competition for Masaki.

"You sure quite calm" Masaki open his mouth and speak to Arthur who is on the opposite field

"There is nothing I can do here, it was a surprise for you to speak to me"

"I just want you to use all of your ability, even if you can defeat George before, I will make sure you can't repeat the same feat as before"

"A threat from the prince, is it? Well, you can have strong confidence in yourself because of the nature of your magic and I'm at disadvantage here, but you will not get your long yearn victory"

When the two of them have a conversation, another conversation with slightly same topic is happening in the headquarters of First High School.

"Tell me about your opinion, Tatsuya" Mari has her face glued to the screen and ask Tatsuya who is behind her

Mayumi and Mari especially invited him to headquarters for knowing his analysis and opinion about this battle because he is the one who knows the most about Arthur's magic nature as his technician.

"It was an unpredictable battle, Ichijou family is very well known for their magic that related to liquid, the very basic components of the ice pillar. But Arthur also has a speed of activation magic and high interference strength, I never see him use any other type of magic but maybe there is still something he hides as a backup plan"

"So, he needs to seize the initiative?"

"Then we can just find the answer after the battle... speaking of which, Rin-chan what's today titled in the live streaming?" This is Mayumi new hobby to look at the title of the live streaming in the official website

"The fight between Crimson Prince and White Prince... well, today viewers is dominating by the female" Suzune show her terminal to Mayumi who looks at the terminal and interested with the comments section because what the viewers comparing between Arthur and Masaki is not their magic ability, but it was their look.

"Well, it was understandable because the majority of viewers is not a magician" Mayumi nods her head and feel amused with several comments in there

"It's starting" Mari's voice is pulling everyone's attention back to the biggest screen in the headquarters.

But there is one person who is watching over Mari's expression rather than the Screen "She is tenser rather than the contestants itself, and she is also tenser compared to when she is on her own match" Mayumi look at Mari with an understanding smile before look to the screen.

When the signal light is turning to green both Masaki and Arthur active their own magic at the same time and Arthur is slightly faster than Masaki.

A triple Phonon Maser light shoots out from Arthur's side and destroys three ice pillars of Masaki before being stopped by Masaki's interference armor, this is new variations of Phono Maser modified by Tatsuya and Echidna before.

A normal Phonon Maser just can shoot out one at a time, but with Tatsuya and Echidna modifications Phonon Maser will divide itself from one to three, nine, twenty-seven, and lastly is 81. If it was like in their theory then it can multiply more than that but they said it's as lastly because it was the last number of Phonon Maser Arthur can produce at that time because of the insufficient space.

Masaki using his family's magic Rupture and successfully destroying two Arthur's Ice Pillars before it was being stopped with a very strong zone interference area make Masaki can't alter the eidos of the liquid on the pillar Arthur interference strength prevent it from happening.

This is the first time Arthur's ice pillar is destroyed but it was a bad exchange because Masaki lost tree of his ice pillar and just can destroy one of Arthur's ice pillar.

"The opening is complete, now let's start the main event" Arthur active his other magic after feeling satisfied with the results of his previous magic

Arthur just one to use this opportunity to advertising and showing off the modified version of Phonon Maser to the audience who is coming from university, magic ȧssociation, and several people from the Ten Master Clans.

Arthur raises his gun shape CAD in his right hand and conjures a miniature of the white whale from ice and shoots it to Masaki's side.

Masaki use rupture on the white whale and make it explode become numerous ice dust that scatters and sparkling like a rain of stars that falling from the night sky make it beautiful view for everyone who is seeing it, no matter it was the audience in the competition site or the audience who is watching the match in the official website they're very captives by this sight.

When Masaki feels slightly relieved there is something he fell wrong, as a soldier who has an experience of the real battlefield Masaki always believed in his intuition because it was saving him several times already.

When Masaki wants to deploy another barrier, Arthur uses another CAD that he took out and he uses the previously modified version of Phonon Maser and destroys all of Masaki's Ice Pillars in one go.

The sign for the end of the match is heard and the results are quite surprising because, with these results, it can be seen just how big the difference between First High ace and Third High ace.

Arthur leaves the platform and he was greeted by a loud of cheering from the audience and his schoolmates, waving his hand to them Arthur makes his way to the corridor and there is Echidna who is waiting for her.

"You hold back at the start of the battle?" Echidna who has both of her hand behind her back walking to his side and walking together

"What are you talking, there is no way I'm holding back in there" Arthur flick his finger to Echidna's forehead

"You didn't need to be so mean! I'm just curious because you can active your magic very close to zero but you are active your magic at the same time with him" Echidna touch the spot where Arthur flicked her and pouting at Arthur

"That's because I have complete control over ice element and lightning element, you can understand if I say it like that rather than using this world magic systems, right?"

At first he can buy the complete mastery of elements with just fifty million of system point, but after he bought complete mastery of ice element the price jumps to hundred million system point for the second mastery which is Arthur choose to buy lightning element and for the third element the price jumps to two hundred million of system point so he didn't buy anything because at that time he needs a lot of system point to build Alfheim.

"Oh, no wonder... so that's why you can make miniature of the white whale instantly but there is a time for the net"

"Net... don't tell me you intend to call the modified version of Phonon Maser as Net?"

"Net or Root is not a bad choice, I didn't like the flashy name so it's good" Echidna smile at him and turn her back walking ahead of him with a carefree smile

"Not as good as you!" Echidna stuck out her tongue and jeering at him "Let's go, we will have dinner with the other to celebrate your victory and the other girl's victory too"

And with that, the sixth day of Nine Schools Competition is over.
