Prince Claudius was a vice captain of true dragons while Carla was the vice captain of the Acqua mirror house.
However, both of them were famous for the way they handled their swords.
Prince Claud was called the (Magic swordsman of light) thanks to his incomparable prowess in handling the swords. While on the other hand, Carla was called (Swordsman of unlimited swords) thanks to her unique skill that lets her store any kind of blade in a special dimension.
If one fought with magic and sword, the other wielded multiple swords of various kinds and natures in her fights.
She was famous for using various kinds of swords in her fights and these swords, her weapons were sometimes so unique they caught the attention of people all around the world that paid any attention to the prodigies of the golden age or just the genius young generation of the sword wielders.
The swords were considered the greatest weapon of them all and since she was proficient with various forms of swords, Carla was also referred as someone who would one day follow the footsteps of the Vice headmaster, someone who had mastered all the weapons there were.
She was good with what she did and she knew how to use her swords, her unique physique, and her various skills.
-Clank! Clank! Clank!
In her fight against someone who could use both magic and swords proficiently, as someone who could only use swords covered in special enchantments and swords that were made with unique ways, she knew how to give a proper fight.
Especially after all her experiences and the new things that she had learned while being in this academy, she was in fact having fun clashing with this strong opponent.
And her opponent was also pretty much the same.
-Oooooooooooooong!
He was a high level swordsman as well as someone who could use magic as well as many of the genius mages of their academy could.
He had his own special way to cast the magic and he used this special method along with his other special skills, while at the same time maintaining his sword path.
He was a formidable foe, even for someone that was called the best sword prodigy of the era.
-Swish! Swish! Swish!
From the way he used his magic swords to create a defensive barrier around him to the way he himself moved across the arena.
The way he handled his spells to the way he wielded his sword with such calmness was something only someone with a great experience as a sword wielder with real battle experiences could possess.
His eyes were only focused on his opponent’s feet. Was keeping track of her every movement and he was moving while predicting all the possibilities that his opponent would think he had missed.
As the sword in his hands, covered in a radiant golden Aura of light, moved along with his swift yet predictable-looking attacks moved for the obvious guarded areas of his opponent, Carla knew something unexpected would happen if she did not move from her place.
She had also predicted all the things that he could do and all the things that she might miss, and in this moment, she knew ignoring this attack would prove out to be fatal.
She had also had various enlightening experiences in these past few years and she had also fought against strong beasts that could threaten her life.
She did not yet have any life and death experiences- aside from her experiences fighting against her younger brother and grandfather- so she was definitely lacking in many ways.
Still, she knew what she had to do in this certain moment and used her unique skill to switch her longsword for a greatsword and blocked the incoming attack from her opponent.
However, her opponent wanted exactly this kind of response and as soon as she had blocked his attack, Claud moved his body ever so slightly that the sword that had just clashed with her shield like a greatsword gently slid down her edge and he was able to create an opening in that microsecond.
-Clang!
Alas, the opponent he was fighting had already experienced ZONE multiple times now and now possessed senses even sharper than a wounded wild beast.
’{Thunderclap}.’
He knew the chances of his victory were small and there were not many ways to win this battle available anymore.
So... after realising the saddening truth of their situation, he let go of the thinking part and clashed his sword just for the sake of defeating the wild opponent fighting against him.
-Clank! Clank! Clank!
And after he did that, the kind of battle that followed was not something any of the students present here had ever expected to witness...
-Clung!
-Boooooooooom!
-Ooooooooooooong...!
-Bam!
They used magic and magical weapons to fight and counter each other’s attacks.
Some of Carla’s techniques were made in a way that she could even return the magical attacks of the opponent, while even though a little difficult, he possessed strong defensive abilities that were solid enough to withstand the powerful destructive abilities of his opponent.
-Clank! Clank! Clank!
They started fighting at such a fast speed that some of the students could not even see them.
At one point, the fight became so intense and both of them got so engrossed in their fight that they even forgot to care about the property of the academy.
-Clang! Clang! Clang!
At one point, the explosions and sparks became so bad that the heat generated by the battle could even be felt by the students that were standing around the arena they were fighting around.
After one point, even their teacher could not take it anymore and had to step in to stop both of them even though he was enjoying the battle himself– he had no choice after they did not stop even after crossing the safety threshold of the defensive system.
"Haaaa... haaaa..."
"..."
"You should find a good place to continue this fight and invite me to see it. You did well... much better than I had expected."
If it was possible, he would let them fight and let them destroy this entire arena.
That was how battles had to be anyway.
And they were fighting without holding back anything, so he was even more happy by their display.
"Haaa..."
Of course, neither of them liked how they were stopped just when it seemed like the real fun was getting started.
"I want a rematch, haaa... Prince Claudius."
"The feeling... is mutual... Miss Carla."
Both of them were out of breath but they were brimming with fighting spirit even still.
It was unexpected. But they had a little too much fun with this battle of theirs.
