Chapter 328
"What? What?"
“Tsunami?”
“Oh my god!”
Amazement erupted from the audience.
In response, Lunba, who was in charge of commentary, shouted excitedly.
[Ahhhhhh! It’s a tsunami! Leo Plov created a tsunami with spiritual control! This is fuckin crazy?!]
[What did you just say, Lunba Tess?]
[Cough! Ha, Professor Harrid… So what I meant was… Zzzzzzzz]
Lunba’s broadcast, through which a vulgar exclamation had unknowingly aired, was cut off.
Lunba was lying face down on the floor in the commentary seat, and Harrid was glaring at Lunba with a cold expression.
Hark burst into laughter after hearing Lunba’s commentary.
“Did he make a contract with the Great Spirit of Water?”
“He didn’t make a contract with the Great Spirit of Water. If he had, he wouldn’t have needed to cause a tsunami with the water of Lake Lumeria. The power of the Great Spirit of Water alone could have created the tsunami.
Lille explained.
“Really? I thought I could expect something much more grand from him.”
“It’s still amazing! In some ways, doing it this way is even more difficult than making a contract with the Great Spirit of Water!”
Lille clenched her fists and shook them wildly as she continued her explanation.
“He made temporary contracts with the countless water spirits living in Lake Lumeria and caused a tsunami! It’s an incredible feat of spiritualism! Ahh! I really want to have an in-depth conversation about spiritualism with Leo right now.”
“Aww, our cute Lille is so excited.”
Elena smiled brightly.
“He changed the battlefield…what was the plan?”
Hark answered Aina's question without taking his eyes off the screen.
"He's trying to create an environment a powerful summons that can thrive in a battlefield turned into a sea of water, right?"
"A powerful summons that can best wield its power in a sea of water! Could he be trying to summon a Pegasus?!" Lille shouted with an excited expression.
"Which of the three top summons is he about to bring out?"
Right as Hark shook his head saying this.
Flash-! Crash-crash-crash-!
Pure white lightning struck.
Hark looked on with a blank expression as the pure white summons appeared alongside the lightning.
Elena said, twisting her hair, "At this point... Leo is basically a nightmare to the other second-years, right?"

Bubble-Bubble-!
The Wind Wyvern, Eliza’s summons, floundered in the water.
In front of Carr, Eliza’s summons, a Delphinus, Lurie appeared.
Squeak-!
Carr waved his arms and legs like crazy while looking at the Delphinus.
Squeak-!
Lurie bit the hem of Carr’s clothes and dragged him out from underwater.
"Gasp! Th-thank you."
At Carr's greeting, Lurie burst into tears and dove.
After barely resurfacing, Carr urgently used a spell to float up and looked up at the sky.
There, he saw Leo riding a pure white horse and burst into laughter.
'... So you even summoned a Pegasus, huh?'
When he heard that Leo had summoned a Fairy.
Carr had thought that Leo might have made a contract with all three of the most powerful summons.
Common sense told him that it was almost impossible.
‘But Leo has always surpassed common sense.’
He had planned the operation assuming the worst of the worst.
‘He changed the battlefield to his advantage.’
In fact, Carr knew very well that Leo was not affected by the battlefield.
Leo could exert his combat ability 100% anywhere on land, water, or in the sky.
The ones affected by the terrain were Chloe and Chen Xia.
And the other students from the opposing dormitories who were attacking Glory’s stronghold.
Carr turned his head and looked at Glory’s stronghold.
‘Attacking the stronghold is now impossible.’
The moment the surrounding area became a sea of water, Harmony and Noble had lost the advantage.
Of course, some students might have been better in underwater combat, and there were those not greatly affected by water.
However, at least the students who specialized in land combat were having difficulties.
Unlike Harmony and Noble’s combined forces, Glory still had the great advantage of their barrier.
And…
‘Celia and Duran.’
The advantage of having a pair with superior compatibility over Chloe and Chen Xia.
The moment the battle shifted underwater, the weight of that advantage clearly tilted toward Chloe and Chen Xia.
Chloe, who wielded ice sorcery, and Chen Xia, with her water attribute Aura.
In underwater battles, Celia’s power was halved.
Furthermore, Chloe had acquired a means of attack to freeze ‘water’ at will.
Not only that, but Chen Xia was also one of the strongest students in underwater combat in the entire second year.
‘He deliberately created this entire situation by himself.’
It was truly amazing.
‘Amazing as always, Leo.’
Always acting as if he had no limits.
He did extraordinary things every single time, as if it were the only thing he could do.
Knowing that fact all too well, he had anticipated this most desperate situation.
Carr’s eyes sparkled.
‘So… I prepared!’

Celia burst into laughter at the sight of the battlefield, now a sea of water.
She could guess who was responsible.
“Really… this is too much, even for my cousin.”
Though she braced herself to give chase, he widened the gap again.
The embers, once revived, flickered faintly.
Rumbleeeeee-!
Celia reshaped Flame Storm.
Flame Storm, now resembling a straight blade, radiated intense heat.
But still… she made sure it didn’t break.
Flutter-!
Her soaked body dried instantly.
‘He’s always been like this, hasn’t he?’
Celia’s eyes sparkled.
'And I have walked my own path.'
She hadn’t been lacking, even compared to her great ancestors.
She had vowed to become an even greater knight than them all.
‘I can continue down that path from now on.’
"The Celia I know is back."
Chloe, rising with Flying Sorcery, stood atop the water’s surface, laughing.
Crack-!
The water froze to create a platform for Chloe.
Harmony and Noble students thrashing in the water were startled.
"Hey! Get out of the water!"
"Celia’s sorcery is coming!"
Ping-!
Chloe dipped the tip of her cane in the water and chanted her spell.
“Ice World."
Crack-crack-crack-crack-crack-crack-crack-crack-crack-crack-crack-crack-crack!
The water around Chloe quickly froze.
All the students desperately trying to escape the water were encased in ice and declared defeated.
Thump-!
Chloe said, looking at Celia with her blue eyes, "You're next, Celia."
“... I’ve always wanted to go all out with you."
Grip-!
Celia readied her sword.
Flutter-!
Crack-crack-crack-crack-crack-crack-!
Shiiiiiiiiiing-!
Fire and ice collided, creating a thick steam across the battlefield.
Crackle-crackle-!
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"
"Hey! Duran, if you attack now, you’ll be shooting at your own teammates!"
"It’s none of my business. Just keep out of the way."
Duran, speaking coldly, unleashed his lightning Aura.
Flash! Crash-crash-crash-!
"Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!"
"Everyone, back off!"
A golden spark raced wildly through the surrounding water.
"W-We almost got grilled."
A male student who managed to escape Duran’s attack stood on the water using an Aura Step, cold sweat covering his face.
"I know. I thought we wouldn’t be attacking with our colleagues in the way, but Duran is relentless, isn’t he?"
"Huh? Ch-Chen Xia!"
The male Knights Studies student freaked out seeing Chen Xia squatting on the water, muttering as if she couldn't stop herself.
Duran’s sword flew towards Chen Xia.
The male knight panicked and tried to avoid it, but Chen Xia tripped his leg first.
“Oops!”
"Wh-what are you doing!"
“Using you as a shield.”
"You cruel woman!"
The boy screamed.
Chen Xia waved lightly.
Then, like a light ball, the boy was struck by Duran’s lightning instead of the shield.
Crackle-!
At that moment-
Duran’s sword moved like a snake, changed its trajectory, and flew towards Chen Xia to avoid striking the schoolboy.
Duran’s aim was to protect his roommate from harm.
Swoop!
Duran, approaching fast, grabbed Chen Xia’s neck.
"I’ve let you escape long enough."
Duran’s golden eyes flashed.
“But this is the end.”
Crackle-! Boom-boom-booooom-!
“Choke!?”
Chen Xia screamed in shock.
Crackle-crackle-! Shiiiiiiiiiing-!
Chen Xia’s body sagged.
Her head dropped.
The bracelet indicating her life flashed red, signaling that she had been defeated.
“Gah, how merciless.”
“Wow… that had to have hurt.”
Duran snorted as people muttered in frustration around him.
“Who do you think I am? Chen Xia is strong. If I let my guard down, I’ll get hurt.”
“I got him.”
“…!”
Thud-!
“So you knew that, Duran?”
Chen Xia smiled sharply, a stark contrast to her usual demeanor.
“Shadows build up resistance to their antithetic attributes. I’ve been subjected to electric torture since I was young. I have a strong resistance to lightning Aura.”
Splash-!
Despite her small stature and cute, gentle face, Chen Xia’s fighting style was tough and fierce.
She thrived in cut-throat battles where she disregarded her own wounds to defeat her opponent.
She had allowed Duran to catch her in order to drag him into the water, where she had the advantage.
‘Choke!’
Duran gritted his teeth, grabbed his sword, and raised his Aura.
Whooosh! Splash-!
But Chen Xia’s fist was faster than his reaction, piercing Duran’s chin.
Crash-crash-crash-!
Duran was thrown straight to the bottom of the water.
Holding his breath, Duran opened his eyes wide and saw Chen Xia blocking his path.
WHoooooom-!
Chen Xia used her Water Aura.
Swoosh-!
An immense amount of water pressure enveloped Duran.
Now underwater, he was in Chen Xia's domain, where she controlled the Water Aura.
Whooooosh-!
Duran's knees wobbled.
The green light of the bracelet indicating life rapidly changed to orange.
'Yes.'
Duran's eyes flashed.
'I'll take you down... and then go fight Leo Plov.'
Swoosh-!
Sparks flew from Duran's body.
Thwack-!
Arty let out a scream as Leo tugged on the reins.
“What?”
[Considering I’ve been under contract with the Lordren royal family for generations, following my new master’s orders in front of so many people is… ]
“No one will recognize you as Lordren’s Pegasus, right?”
Arty was still enveloped in pure white lightning.
She essentially looked like a battle-ready Pegasus.
Since the details of her figure were obscured by the lightning, the only person who might recognize Arty would be Sasha, who knew about the contract.
[That’s why it’s good. Hehehehe!]
Leo nervously pulled on Arty’s reins as she trembled with a perverted laugh.
[Ahh~! I don’t like it rough~]
Arty muttered in a flirtatious voice.
Leo ignored Arty and charged at the four with a blank expression.
Whoosh-!
Walden and Chelsea blocked their path.
Crackle-crackle-!
When Leo raised his hand, the Pegasus’ thunderbolt gathered at his fingertips.
Leo, with his eyes flashing, hurled thunderbolts at Chelsea.
Flash-! Crash-crash-crash-!
Walden obstructed Chelsea’s path.
Chelsea shouted as she unleashed her spell.
"Wind Breaker!"
Crash-crash-crash-!
One of Chelsea's long-term magic spells, Wind Breaker, was activated.
Additionally, Chelsea began to recite another spell with incredible speed.
As a result, the Wind Breaker started to split rapidly, eventually producing hundreds of Wind Breakers.
Leo pulled Arty's reins while tracking the wind's trajectory with his eyes.
Whish-! Whish-! Whish-!
Chelsea gritted her teeth as she watched Leo charge forward, dodging all the dense wind barriers that formed a net.
Whoosh-!
At that moment, the Wind Wyvern blocked Leo’s path.
“What an honor! To have an aerial battle with your Pegasus!” Eliza shouted sharply while she swung her whip.
Whick-! Swish-!
Leo grabbed the whip.
“Choke!”
Eliza gritted her teeth as she saw Leo easily seize her whip, which was not just any whip but one imbued with the power of a summons.
[I wanted to get whipped!]
Leo pulled hard, ignoring Arty, who sighed.
"Choke?"
"You’re always acting so proud, but you can scream cutely after all."
"You’re making fun of me!"
Eliza’s eyes, flushed with anger, sparked.
Releasing her whip, Eliza tried to strike Leo with her body using her Wind Wyvern to guide her there.
Crash! Crackle-crackle-!
[Oh my, such brute strength. How entertaining.]
Arty laughed, seemingly amused, and twirled her finger.
Leo smirked and used Arty to charge at Eliza.
Crash-crash-craaaaash-!
Eliza, who bounced off Wind Wyvern, crashed to the floor.
Chelsea quickly flew to Eliza and hugged her gently.
"Why do I have to touch you so much?"
"Ugh! I don’t like being in this humiliating pose with you, either!"
"Is it so humiliating to be seen with me? I should throw you off!"
Leo raised his hand as he witnessed the two shouting and bickering.
"They’re such good friends."
Crackle-crackle-!
Just as Leo raised his hand and prepared to unleash Pegasus’ lightning storm, a new disturbance caught his attention.
Whoooom! Whooooom!
The wind swirled around Leo.
‘...Abad?’
Leo’s eyes widened.
Abad’s sorcery created a prison of wind.
This powerful sorcery confined anything within its grasp, cutting it off from the outside world.
Rumble-rumble-rumble-!
Leo looked up.
A massive chunk of rock began to form in the air.
'The Great Spirit of the Ground.'
It was none other than Walden, whom Leo had attacked earlier.
Outside the wind’s prison, Abad was summoning Titaum.
Craaaaaaaash-!
Leo glanced down.
Eliza, who had summoned Lurie in the water, looked up at Leo.
Finally, Leo’s gaze fell on Carr.
"I expected him to get this far."
Leo curled his lips and looked at Chelsea.
Standing in front of Leo, Chelsea clasped her cane with a nervous expression.
"Are you planning to summon the Great Spirit of the Ground to create a few heavy piles to crush me?"
“...That’s right, Leo."
"And Eliza’s role is to use water to hold me back so I can’t escape the moment Abad’s wind prison is lifted."
Leo studied Abad’s face.
"The problem is that although the wind prison has a strong captive force, it’s only effective while you’re inside of it as well. And those on the outside can’t do anything while we’re inside this cage. So the downside is that you can’t get any outside support."
Leo smiled.
"Are you going to keep me at bay by yourself?"
“...That’s right."
Leo nodded as he watched Chelsea respond with cold sweat.
"You know it’s impossible, right?"
"The person I admire..."
Chelsea looked straight at Leo.
"Is one who does the impossible."
Whioooo!
Chelsea’s wind surged.
"But it’s not enough to just sit back and watch."
“...”
"Now I want to see if I can do the same."
Chelsea laughed.
"I’m going to push beyond my limits and achieve the impossible."
