Chapter 295
The moment I used Magical Enhancement, the victory or defeat was decided even before the swords faced each other.
As soon as Reinhardt’s body was engulfed in blue magic flames, Scarlett lost the sword the next moment.
– Kaang!
Reinhardt’s sword, which rushed into it in an instant, bounced off Scarlett’s sword.
Most weapon skills are designed to deal with opponents of their own class. Therefore, a fight between those who have entered the superhuman stage and those who are not can not be established because of the problem of weight class itself, not skill.
loss of weapons.
Unable to fight soon.
-The 3rd set is Reinhardt’s victory!
The third set ended with the emcee’s shout.
“What kind of situation is this?”
Olivia didn’t seem to understand. He didn’t know that Reinhardt could use magic enhancement only with the help of autosuggestion. It only seems that he has intentionally not used magical power enhancement until now.
Only Ellen and Scarlett know that in this place.
Only Ellen in the audience could accurately grasp what kind of growth Reinhardt had achieved in this short moment.
Ellen unknowingly clenched her fists.
‘Reinhardt… … .’
Reinhardt took it to the next level. No one else could know, but Ellen knew all too well what a big step forward it was.
I’m so happy about that.
Ellen didn’t know what to do, holding back the desire to get up and run to Reinhardt.
Aside from Ellen’s excitement and the audience’s dumbfoundedness, the game goes on anyway.
The win/loss ratio is 2:1.
Even if Reinhardt succeeded in strengthening his magical power without the aid of superpowers, it would be no different than a double-edged sword.
For the next two sets, since she can’t use supernatural powers, she has to defeat Scarlett only by strengthening her magical powers.
However, if that happens, will we be able to properly play the remaining finals?
The crisis was passed, but it was inevitable that the victory would become unclear.
-Now, let’s start the 4th set… … .
However, in a situation where Scarlett and Reinhardt are facing each other. Suddenly, Scarlett raised her hand.
-Yes, what happened… … . ah.
The emcee’s embarrassed voice echoed through the stadium.
-Royal Class 1st year Scarlet declared withdrawal.
abstention.
Not only the audience but also Reinhardt, the opponent, was greatly taken aback by the sudden declaration.
* * *
waiting room.
‘Reinhardt has to win. I can’t put more effort here.’
Scarlett left those words and withdrew.
It seemed that he was already satisfied.
Scarlett wanted to see me not giving up. My reaction when my superpower, my most powerful power and means, is neutralized.
Scarlett wanted me to get over it somehow. You always showed something, and you never gave up, so I hope you do the same this time.
I somehow reciprocated the coercion, not the coercion.
That was Scarlett’s purpose in the first place.
Scarlett stopped testing me the moment I succeeded in strengthening my magical powers and subdued myself without the aid of psychic powers.
Had the set continued, the outcome would have been unclear.
very fleeting
It was magical power enhancement that was activated for a while, but it was used without the aid of psychic powers.
My fingertips were tingling and a grotesque pain permeated my whole body, as if my muscles were being torn.
It is a power that cannot be used for a long time even with the assistance of autosuggestion, but since it was used without assistance, it was inevitable that the body would be overloaded more severely.
Scarlett was able to defeat me. But he eventually gave up after seeing the results he wanted.
this way
I didn’t want to, but in the end, Scarlett entered the tournament to take me to the next level.
Hit with all your might What you can’t do in practice matches becomes possible in this stadium.
The audience was agitated, but I returned to the waiting room, and Scarlett returned with the words to win.
It was a gaze that felt uncomfortable yet somehow responsible, that expectations were being forced. If I had been an ordinary person, if I had been Reinhardt as usual, I would have told him not to talk nonsense.
But Scarlett had a sense of debt in many ways, so she couldn’t say anything.
Ludwig and Gladen Amorel were away to prepare for the next game.
That’s why, I was the only one in the waiting room with the freshmen, and I was the only one occupying the audience.
Whoever comes up can use autosuggestion this time. My biggest unexpected adversary, Scarlett, gave up when I showed her what she expected.
Perhaps only Ellen in the audience noticed my change.
It’s been a year since the side of me nagged me to try strengthening my magic power, and it’s been a year since I’ve been whining that it won’t work.
However, this time, he succeeded in strengthening his magical powers without assistance from supernatural powers.
… … would you like to praise
what?
Do I look like a kid who can’t wait to be praised by the teacher for doing something good?
No, since Ellen is actually my teacher, isn’t it very different?
Anyway, I was left alone in the waiting room.
I sat down to watch the semi-final match where the final opponent would be decided while continuing to make self-suggestions so that I could get back in shape.
how long has it been
-Now, the second match of the quarterfinals of the 1st year tournament, we will start soon!
Ludwig and Gladen Amorel were stepping onto the pitch.
In the original story, Ludwig can’t take a single set to Glaiden Amorel.
Ellen doesn’t give a single set to such Gladen Amorel.
However, Ludwig became stronger than in the original.
Even so, you won’t be able to win. That guy is next to Ellen and me at this point. If you wake up to magical power enhancement, you’ll climb on top of me right away. Scarlett is a bit of a special case, so let’s make an exception.
Will can’t be strength right away.
The moment my self-suggestion was neutralized, I also felt a sense of incongruity when I realized that the power I wanted did not dwell in my body.
That’s how I got used to my own psychic powers.
That’s why I realized once again how absurd it is to bring strength through faith that doesn’t answer.
But Ludwig decided not to say the word lose anymore.
The screen shows Ludwig’s face.
Ludwig always has a smile on his face and a nice, kind expression.
The boy’s face was cold.
It was a first look.
* * *
Gladen Amorel.
Orbis class 1st year A-1, and compared to the royal class, he had no inferiority at all. That’s why he was a strong next-generation prospect in the Orbis class.
You can.
If you are, you can defeat the royal class bastards. Just do it like now. just like now No, I can work harder.
I heard those words so much that it stuck in my ears.
He has done what he was told to do and what he had to do more perfectly than anyone else.
Gladen Amorel.
A person who thought it was something he had to endure in the spirit of forced improvement, but found out that the place was hell and got out of it.
Gladen Amorel found laughter and relaxation.
Realizing that there was no reason to live a forced life, Glayden Amorel was now kinder and kinder to others than before.
Because I no longer live with the feeling that someone is chasing me from behind.
But that doesn’t mean I’m lazy. As for my skills, I feel myself that I have improved a little more by concentrating on the training I want to do in a state where I somehow found some time to spare.
Satisfaction from voluntary training.
That’s why Gladen Amorel’s personality changed, but his skills didn’t deteriorate. No, it is safe to say that he has made progress.
Those who hadn’t laughed at all got their smiles back.
However, opponents.
Royal Class B-11 Ludwig.
There was no smile on Ludwig’s face, who was good-natured, kind, and kind to everyone. As if he was up to something.
Like if you put up a wall behind you and think that everything is over when you reach it.
Ludwig, who had lost his smile, was aiming his sword at Gladen Amorel.
The reversed each other is aiming their swords at each other.
Gladden Amorel speaks to Ludwig.
“Looks like you made up your mind.”
“… … .”
Ludwig, who was silent for a while, opened his mouth to Gladen Amorel with a still firm expression.
“I am the lowest in the royal class. My talent will be enough to enter the royal class, but it will be regarded as the most insignificant talent there.”
“… … What are your talents?”
“health.”
Normally, he would laugh like an idiot and scratch his head, but now Ludwig was speaking calmly with a firm expression.
“However, there was a friend in class A who entered without any talent, which is called infinite aptitude. Even in B class, there was a lot of talk. Isn’t that what class B class 11 is supposed to do? Of course, I didn’t think so.”
“But the thing is, he really, really didn’t have anything. He didn’t even have the slightest advantage of stamina like me.”
“But he could be weak, but he wasn’t weak. I can’t say it was a good thing, but he didn’t back down from all the bad things he went through. No matter how much he fell, no matter how much he fell, he got up again. At that point, I might as well give up. It would be right to give up. Even in moments like that, it always comes back up.”
Gladden Amorel seemed to know who Ludwig was talking about.
“I am the opposite.”
“let’s work hard. anything. If you work hard, you will be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with classmates who have great talent even if you are behind right now. I believed so.”
“I was living with the mindset of a loser.”
always promise later
I have been thinking too objectively of myself now. I’m not into him yet. I am still less than him. So let’s work hard. It’s still pushed, but someday you’ll be able to stand side by side.
I can’t help it now.
“But he always bumped into me even though he knew he couldn’t. She bumped and fell and hurt herself, believing she couldn’t win but she could win. I spent this year making unreasonable and reckless attempts.”
“Now, I am much weaker than that friend.”
“Obviously I would have been stronger than that friend originally. But while I rationalized a lot of other things with just the thought of working hard, that friend overtook me and went far away.”
“While hiding behind excuses for me and saying it was okay because I was working hard, that friend challenged the impossible and bumped into it. It was a bad thing, but believing that it could be done.”
“okay. I admire Reinhardt.”
“Catching up on this street that has already been caught up.”
“I think that’s what I have to do from now on.”
“I can’t, but. believing that it should be I decided to do that. Because Reinhardt said you should at least believe that.”
“I will not hide behind the excuse that I am working hard now. With just that thought, it will only be like this.”
Ludwig looked at Gladen Amorel with his sword in his hand.
Ludwig, the bottom of class B who accepted reality and gave up under the name of hard work and guts, is no longer there.
It changes.
Now, I do not comfort myself by saying that I will work hard.
Not to work hard, but to do well.
Not to do our best, but to win.
“therefore.”
At all the results that didn’t go well, you scratch yourself at the back of your head, saying that things will get better later.
throw it away now
Will cannot be strength.
However, only one person in the world knows the truth of this world.
Will cannot be power, but Ludwig is the protagonist of this world.
causal nucleus.
Being a main character, he can change his will into power.
such a protagonist.
Ludwig declares.
“I am.”
“you.”
“Win.”
The world is always on his side.
* * *
what is that kid
I couldn’t help but doubt my eyes at the results of the quarterfinals.
It was a complete victory for Ludwig with 3:0.
It seemed like they were having a conversation, but when the duel started, a completely different situation unfolded from what I had imagined.
Ludwig’s sword drove Gladen Amorel with overwhelming power.
It wasn’t even using magic power enhancement.
It’s not like using superpowers.
Ludwig counterbalanced all the swords that Glaiden Amorel held out with only the strength of his body and stabbed him in reverse.
A huge weight difference.
Ludwig had done it with his bare body, a task that could only be achieved by using magical power enhancement.
The people in the audience were also staring blankly at Ludwig, who had completely defeated Gladen Amorel with monstrous power.
-Wow!
Those who are not familiar with the situation are excited about the overwhelming and tremendous fight itself, but I was dumbfounded.
That is not the speed and reaction that can be achieved without magical power enhancement.
I don’t know what he did, but Ludwig has changed.
It’s this much without magical power enhancement, but if you do magic power enhancement, it’s clear that you’ll become even more insane.
I could at least know that my words from yesterday resonated with Ludwig.
Will cannot be strength. Except for me, who has the power of self-suggestion and linguistic spirit.
I saw Ludwig with a firm expression standing tall amidst the cheers of the people.
I realized what I was overlooking.
The current strongest player in the world, Saviolin Tana.
The next strongest person in the world, Ellen.
Olivia Ranze, another candidate for the strongest in the world who had to die but survived.
Harriet de Saintoine, one of the most talented wizards in the history of magic.
And with the talent of infinite aptitude, I recorded an enormous growth in one year.
What do you mean by that?
-Wow!
After all, the main character is Ludwig.
The protagonist can transform will into power. It is made to produce incredible power by replacing anger, sadness, vengeance, and desire with power. If there is no reason, even if it is made, the world lends its strength according to Ludwig’s wish.
Strength in situations where strength is needed.
Giyeon in a situation that needs a gigeon.
the power i have
Autosuggestion is, after all, a deterioration of Ludwig’s power.
The power to transform will into force originally belonged to Ludwig.
This world is made for the protagonist, and Ludwig will have everything he needs.
Ludwig looks somewhere.
Exactly, look at the inside bleachers.
I look down at Ludwig through the window.
Ludwig looks up at me.
The guy who said to meet me in the finals actually met me in the finals.
* * *
Not a single thing worked out the way I thought.
As if believing that the 10,000 achievement point challenge would be easy to achieve was foolish in the first place, nothing was easy.
I struggled against Scarlett, who hadn’t given much thought to it, and the defeat deepened, but due to her withdrawal, I advanced to the finals.
Gladen Amorel was pushed back by an overwhelming gap to Ludwig.
If we work hard, we will be able to reach you someday.
Ludwig, who believed so, abandoned his weakness.
It is completely different from the original development, so it is now impossible to predict and the situation has become meaningless.
It wasn’t that he had awakened to strengthen his magical powers, nor was he using superpowers.
just the main character
With that one advantage, Ludwig became stronger.
After a brief break, the final stage begins.
The physical condition is not at its peak. But that doesn’t mean it’s seriously bad.
If you use autosuggestion, you will be able to face Ludwig, and if you use magical power enhancement, you will be able to overwhelm him.
However, it is not known whether it will be possible until the 3rd set.
If I don’t properly adjust my pace, I will face the pitiful situation of losing not because I lost to Ludwig, but because I failed to control my condition.
-The long-awaited final stage is about to begin! A confrontation between the royal class A class and B class!
You’re avoiding the word “battle between the last in number.”
Ludwig and I were facing each other while the moderator gave a speech. His face, which had been smiling and laughing, had hardened.
Now I’m just putting on a face I like.
Ludwig, who lacked sincerity, became serious.
“Did it have any effect?”
“… … I think so.”
Ludwig also seemed a little hard to believe what had happened to him. Ludwig looks at me quietly.
“Can I follow you?”
“I haven’t learned yet. kid.”
Holding the sword, I smile at Ludwig.
“I mean, think you can follow. No, think you can step on someone like you and stand on top.”
“haha… … . okay. right. It was like that.”
Ludwig smiles and looks at me. But it wasn’t the clumsy smile he had shown so far.
“By the way, it’s strange. Certainly, Reinhardt, you are strong, but there are many people stronger than you… … .”
Ludwig sighs while holding the sword.
“At some point… … . It’s not going well.”
“what?”
“That I beat you.”
The smile disappears from Ludwig’s face again.
“That, I can’t imagine.”
When I heard Ludwig’s expression, I could tell.
Because there is only one existence that I think so.
The guy who will be looking at me from the audience.
There are many people who are stronger than him, and there are many people who are better than him.
but. I can’t picture myself beating Ellen Artorius. Ellen always looks the same, she looks down at me from a farther distance than I do, and she seems to be teaching me swordsmanship.
In the original story, Ellen was like that to Ludwig.
A wall you can’t follow no matter how hard you try. An existence that must always be looked up to.
Now, looking at Ellen has become my role.
“You’ve grown so fast, I think you’ll be far ahead of me no matter how hard I follow you.”
It has to be.
Ellen had already entered in a strong state, but I started in a state inferior to Ludwig and far surpassed him.
That’s why Ludwig has no choice but to focus on me rather than Ellen.
I can’t help but wonder why I can’t be like Reinhardt.
Ludwig was feeling the wall against me, not Ellen, and had no choice but to target me.
Ellen may be stronger than me, but Ludwig’s goal is bound to be to overtake me.
An insurmountable wall.
To Ludwig, the wall became me, not Ellen.
Ellen’s place in the original work, now I have it.
-The long-awaited finals of the 1st grade tournament! Let’s get started right now!
The protagonist’s eternal rival and admiration.
Is that my role in this world?
“I don’t think so, but I’ll believe it anyway.”
Ludwig takes a deep breath.
“I can beat you.”
As I hold the sword Meet Ludwig.
There was only one thing he taught Ludwig.
Make a commitment to win, not an excuse prepared for defeat.
It’s not a big deal, but it’s what I was taught after all.
“no.”
And, that’s my specialty.
“You can’t beat me.”
Ludwig looks at me and says.
“I am.”
I also look at Ludwig and say.
“I am.”
And we look at each other and talk at the same time.
“you. win.”
-Kureung!
My body was covered with blue magic power, and Ludwig stepped on the advance and jumped at me.
– Kwakang!
The moment swords collided, each other’s swords shattered as if they had promised each other.
