"Isn't this Nil, are you doing well?" "... Kevin, it's been a long time."
A man who can afford it while smiling, and a man who greets with a bad face.
Kevin vs. Nyl Viceroy, the first match of the Ein Shogun Challenger Tournament Tournament.
Kevin is a 130-year-old elf who teaches at the Royal Magic School. In contrast, Nil is 128 years old. Not so old. However, there was a big difference between their backgrounds.
Kevin was a young Elf sorcerer and spent his youth as a warrior and young soldier.
Nir was born into a magical landlord called the Viceroy and raised as a butterfly and flower.
Light and darkness were exactly opposite.
In other words, a man who worked desperately as a junior high school graduate, got a job in his hand, and got up in the job, and a man who went to society as a first-class college graduate but who was too large in pride to adapt.
"I don't hear any good rumors about what's going on with Alpha after that." "No way. I've lost. I know. You know." "I don't know." "It's a crooked man."
What happened to Nil in the last six months? He doesn't say much, but Kevin realizes that there must have been hard work to imagine.
"Thank each other! Ready!"
Following the orders of the referees, they have taken position.
Silence rules the field.
Kevin said. The title match is "killing each other to win or lose." Nill really agrees. He also learned. Yes, it hurts.
There are no idiots talking with the squiggles just before they kill each other.
"--start!"
As the game begins, Nil approaches three steps and immediately casts Fire Elemental Ichino-Type. It is a haste at the limit of the range.
"So that's it"
Kevin remarked, "Water type Ichino-type" was cast, and was activated in a manner that was later adjusted to Nil's activation.
"!"
Immediately after that, I am surprised.
Nil's Ichino-type is on the way.
Drop This is a technique called in Mevion. Darefully shooting "fluffy" has the effect of causing the magic to stall and drop midway.
First mover is me
A sudden declaration. At the same time, Nill defended Kevin's Ichino-type in a compact way by bucking his upper body, and spelled "Wind-Type Ichino-type" with no short hair.
Kevin is unable to see the next spell caster due to the Ichino-shape, which has spread to the ground with Nill's drop.
「…… Hey」
Kevin takes a sigh of admire for the tactics that are unlikely to be Nil.
It is a hit-and-away tactic that Alpha showed in the Winter Eizen War-a strategy that puts emphasis on avoiding the opponent's attack, and uses only the Ichino-type to strike from the last minute range. This is a strategy that Nil used to be ridiculous during the game, saying, "This is an unpleasant strategy."
"It might have been a good experience for you."
Kevin felt a certain growth and inadvertently leaked his true intention.
To tell the truth, I was looking down. It was the impression of a man named Nyl Viceroy, a naive nobleman who was trapped only by his title.
This is because he has evolved from a sulky soldier to an elite of a former court magician, a prestigious school teacher. Nil's defeat was a necessary experience for his life.
Once you licked the mud, you could start a muddy tactic. I was able to gain the strength to win without worrying.
The title battle is a killing between winning and losing. If there is any pride, it is only an obstacle. In the last six months, Nill may have finally noticed.
"That's why?"
Kevin thinks.
I have to tell you.
Real smell ... what is it?
"Now"
Kevin avoided the left and right sides of Nino's firing at the last minute, but suddenly retreated and went out of range.
Of course, Nill chases Kevin back into range.
"!"
There, Nill realizes that he has.
With just that, the fact that the front and back are switched.
The lack of a training partner for six months affected this.
Kevin is already preparing and waiting for the Ichino out of range. If you approach unsuspecting as it is, you will receive a 1-type fire from the other side.
"Did you notice? Striking away is the basis of a magical battle. It's not a declarative operation."
Kevin explains provocatively in a teacherly tone.
It was a really bad off-board tactic. Kevin says: You used only the basics you lost. This basic, anyone can do it. And without even knowing that, you are now fighting only with the basics.
…… In fact, ordinary people cannot “thorough”. It makes sense to follow the basics, which is also the strategy. If this were a school, Kevin would have taught that as well.
But this is a battle to win or lose. No matter what kind of hand you use to find the win, Kevin's unique odor will not diminish the effects of mental attacks.
"I can't help prolonging it."
Kevin spells "Water Element / Sannogata".
The Sanno type has a longer range than the Ichino type. Therefore, Nir gets impatient, approaches in a hurry, and begins chanting the Ichino-type in an attempt to destroy the activation of the Sanno-type.
"Well, you don't seem to be growing at all."
After 0.3 seconds, Kevin had already canceled the participant type and had begun chanting "Water Elemental Ichino Type".
"Gua!"
Ichino-type is pierced without mercy by Nil, who approaches and starts chanting.
Sanno-type is an exquisite fake, as the words of a man advising a woman, blinding him at the end of his last hand.
Nill was again and again stuck in the hands that had been turned into Alpha in the winter game.
"What have you been doing in the last six months?
Kevin shoots at the Ichino-shape while telling him to hit him. Nil seems to be slowed down by eating one shot, and doing her best by avoiding.
"What will happen if we lose again today?"
Agitate and irritate anxiety.
Kevin hunts down Nil while hitting the Ichino-type repeatedly. His heart was filled with just one word.
Make a mistake.
Make a mistake, make a mistake, make a mistake, make a mistake, make a mistake.
All I want is a mistake.
"If you go as it is, I will win the judgment. Look, you have to take some action."
Kevin kept shaking.
But Nill is correct. True to the basics and just avoid. Focus only on avoiding.
If you try to get out of range, Kevin can close it. There is no time to sing even if I switch back to the Ichino type. If you try to force it, you will inevitably be hit.
Knowing all of them, Nill kept on avoiding.
All I want is one. Kevin reveals only a momentary gap.
Waiting for a mistake As a result, they are in a state of mutual contact.
This is the only choice because you want to win.
A man who shakes by all means and a man who waits for a chance.
A game with no shards such as beauty.
But ... some people were impressed by the fact that Neil Weissroy did it.
"-Until then! Kevin's victory by judgment!"
After an hour, Nil's defeat is decided.
At the signal of the end of the match, Nil, who was breathing on his shoulder, threw his limbs and lay down on the ground.
That "... I misunderstood. I was surprised. You don't seem to be Nil anymore I know."
Kevin walks in and speaks so.
Nill took a deep breath and held her breath, laughing at her nose.
"It doesn't make sense to lose." "That's not." "I'm not good at magical warfare, right?" "..." "I know. But for the last six months ... I just wanted to try it."
Half a year challenge. That was a failure.
"See you"
Nill stands and turns his back on Kevin.
"wait"
Kevin stopped Nil and opened his mouth to convey the last word.
It is the word that determines the life of Nill afterwards.
"A long time ago ... have you ever taught me magic?" "... I was talking about a brat. I just wanted to show off to you who was a bad shit." Maybe it is. "
Smile and smile clearly.
"I was happy! That's it."
* * *
"Somehow, there's a way to communicate with us. The elf who wins." "I think Raz feels more brainy."
We watched the game between Nil and Kevin, and after the match, we uttered his thoughts.
Raz apparently became familiar with Mr. Kevin's off-board tactics. No, I didn't say it in your mouth, but you're a couple times as obscene.
"... Second, do you think Nil will stop being a magician?"
With Nico Nico and the happy Raz beside, Sylvia said with a hard face.
After listening to the conversation between the two after the match, I guessed it.
"I guess I'll stop." I think so. "" There seems to be one who is giving hints. "
It's hard to notice what you're good at.
Are you lucky enough to meet your "goodies"? Also, can you luckily meet "people"?
I am the former and she is the latter. What about Nil ...?
* * *
Zephyr vs. Cheri, the second game of the Eizen Challenger Decision Tournament. It is a match between the leader of the first court magic division and members.
And so are the two teachers. Great magician Chester. Cheri's great aunt, a former court magician who was feared as a flame witch.
"The day when we face each other is coming ...
In the middle of the arena, Zephyr, a middle-aged, red-haired, bald man facing the celli, said.
A man who decided to participate in the Eisen war with Chester's retirement. Opposite is the woman who first appeared. She is a partner like her daughter's grandchildren she knows since she was a baby, and an important subordinate. But someday, I felt like this day was coming. The day of killing each other to win or lose. Zephyr is impressed by the odd fate.
Thank you, "I will do it. Grandmaster"
In response to Zephyr saying such an old thing, Cheri utters a sharp word that can be provoked.
Give back-that is, the child wins the parent.
"Ceri. I'll teach you one of my sisters and disciples." "What?" I "Do you think you're weaker?"
Chester is called a "grandmother" ... Ceri is scared and can't do it.
With just one word, Ceri realized that Zephyr was seriously saying.
"Thank each other! Ready!"
Cherry stays upset.
Zephyr is superior in all his abilities, experience and spirit. It made me feel different just before the game.
“…………”
I can't win in this way.
Game Cheri decides. Be prepared to appear at the same time as the opening.
"--start!"
Command by referee.
Immediately after, Cheri began singing Water Elemental / Sano-
"…………e"
So I noticed.
Zephyr is singing "Wind Type: Gono Type".
"What ...!"
I can't even say why.
I knew there was no such time.
Every thought runs through the brain in an instant.
What if Zephyr raised his HP like a second? The answer is, "It won't go down even if you hit it directly." If the damage is not more than 10% of the HP, it will not be possible to take down the sword. In a preliminary study by the opponent, Cheri revealed that fact.
Yes, if you can't take it down ... you will be able to trigger the Gono-type. However, if you can't get down with a ginseng type, the remaining method of stopping is-
"Well ...!"
-Approaching.
It seemed that there was no way but to approach, just as Chester did against the second in the Winter Eizen War.
Cheri looked at Zephyr's expression, whether he was raising his HP as much as the second or whether he had enough HP to self-destruct.
... Zephyr was laughing.
"!!"
Don't be confused. Ceri rebukes himself.
Now, I'm desperately inspiring myself, who has a certain fear.
"Please fall!"
From approaching, chanting of "Water Elemental / Participation Type" and activating.
He moves steadily and makes a sharp blow into Zephyr's chest.
"--It was licked."
"!?"
Down did not.
Preparation for Zephyr's Wind Element, Go-no-Type is complete.
"Why ..." Shield technique "Did you not say? I've been elaborate recently" "Yes, did you?" Tapping "In addition, I bought an MGR climbing armor with an inexpensive monthly salary. , I've learned a new type of wind attribute. Do you know why? "" ... Adjustment of power. It's going to keep your own HP even if you self-destruct. Probably, you haven't raised it to the rank. " "It's true. I'll go up to the final with this." "It's not so sweet." "... I know.
A clean word. Zephyr said with a laugh. At the same time, Cheri laughs at herself.
Immediately after, the two people exploded, and the victory was decided.
"-Until then! Winner, Zephyr!"
* * *
Zephyr won, as I expected.
Cheri-chan, poor. It's good Konashi.
Accuracy is unavoidable. For six months, Zephyr would have been desperate to raise his HP, VIT, and MGR just to succeed in this suicide bombing tactic. The effort is different from Cheri-chan, who has made every effort to enter the Eizen War.
"If you think about it, it's just the second tactics."
Sylvia suddenly said. What does that mean?
"The tactics adopted by Mr. Nill and Mr. Kevin might have been originally taught by Alfa to Alpha, and Zephyr's suicide bombing tactics, which is not the same as the one used by Chester against Chester. "Well, uh ... that's right," "Muh? Did you say something weird?" "No, not at all."
However, the expression "tactics". I can't help but feel uncomfortable.
Why are you fighting with [magic] alone, there is no tactics, no shit?
I can only do hit and away or suicide. Naturally how to fight.
In the first place, the Battle of Ei is not such a game.
0k4NN said so in the first Eisho War.
"I see. That's not a tactic, but a hand." "Well, that's it."
Sylvia, who is good at thinking that she was perfect. It's kind of cute, so that's fine.
"Um, next is Professor Kevin and Muratti, and the one who won is Mr. Zephyr ..."
"Well, what do you think of Senpai?"
Raz, sitting beside him, talked with great interest as he was looking forward to the match table as he was free until the next game.
I answer without much thought.
Among them, the only name of a man who will be able to play Eizen.
"Murati Tricolori"
