Chapter 67: Our First Fight

After the few hours of break, the sparring stage was finally repaired to its former form. Now, it was finally time for the last fight of the quarterfinal round of the selection tournament of the 210th class.

Teacher Kyleen went on the stage and she started talking. She said, "Now that the sparring stage is repaired, we can start the next fight. The students who will be fighting at the next battle come at the stage at once! Kraftvoll! Belle!"

"Understood!" said Kraftvoll in response to Teacher Kyleen's call as he stood up from his seat.

"Where is Belle?" asked Teacher Kyleen after she did not hear a response from her.

"In here!" said Belle while rushing toward the sparring stage. "I'm sorry for my tardiness! I lost track of time in the cafeteria," said Belle with an embarrassed face.

"Don't be late next time. Let's start the last match of this round," said Teacher Kyleen. Though Teacher Kyleen hated it when people arrived late at some events like a class or a tournament or match like this one, she let it slide this time because Belle did not make them wait at all.

Kraftvoll and Belle stood at the stage face to face with Teacher Kyleen between of them. They bowed at each other with a smile at their faces. It's not the smiling faces of something mocking someone, instead, those smiled showed their excitement about this fight. "Let the battle begin!" said Teacher Kyleen to show the cue of the battle beginning.

After hearing those, the two gazed at each other and started to talk to each other. "This is gonna be our first fight, huh," said Kraftvoll smilingly to Belle.

"Oh yeah. We never fought even once back when we were still living at the territory of my father, Schild City. You were always training back then with Sir Stark and when we were together, we were just spending those time playing." said Belle in response to Kraftvoll.

"I know your strength better than anyone so I'm not holding back! Brace yourself!" he shouted to her.

"Good! Go all out or else! You know what was going to happen." she smilingly said in response to Kraftvoll's statement.

Both of them backed down and started chanting their first seishin spell.

Kraftvoll started chanting, "Ye who represents stability, grant my wish..." Brown seishin specks started gathering around Kraftvoll as he chants his seishin spell.

At the same time, Belle started chanting, "Ye who represents purity, cleanse thy master's nemesis..." Blue seishin specks can be seen by the people who were watching the last match of this round gathering around Belle as she chants her seishin spell.

'She's gonna use THAT, huh? I better dodge right after I finish conjuring this seishin spell!' Kraftvoll thought to himself after he saw that blue seishin specks were gathering around his childhood friend while she was chanting.

He continued chanting, "Repel anything in thy master's path, Great Earth Guard!" An armor made of the earth was formed from the brown seishin specks.

Belle continued chanting, "Purify those who oppose me, Water Bullet!" Water bullets were formed from the blue seishin essence that was gathered around her. As soon as she finished chanting, the water bullets launched toward Kraftvoll.

After seeing those water bullets going toward his direction, he crossed her arms while he braced himself for the attacks.

All the water bullets that were conjured by Belle hit Kraftvoll's crossed arms. As soon as they hit, they turned into ice. His crossed arms which were cladded with armor made up of earth were frozen.

Kraftvoll canceled the part of the Great Earth Guard armor at his two arms to remove the frozen part of it. Those parts of the Great Earth Guard armor crumbled along with the ice that was resulted after the Water Bullets had hit Kraftvoll crossed arms.

"Now, it's my turn!" Kraftvoll said after defending against Belle's first attack

He started chanting, "I command thee, ye who constitute strength.." Red seishin essence started gathering around Kraftvoll as he chants.

'He's gonna use THAT again?' Belle thought to herself. She smiled a little after she realized what Kraftvoll was gonna do next.

She started chanting to counter Kraftvoll's seishin spell, "Ye who represents purity, cleanse thy master's nemesis.." Blue seishin specks started gathering around Belle when she started chanting.
