Chapter 295: Chapter 295 Leon match.
Hina turned around and saw Soma approaching her side. Soma glanced toward the Arena where the match was about to start. He took a seat, and Hina, who kept her gaze on him, spoke.
"Soma about the earlier fight".
Then tension and the questions around Hina\'s atmosphere scream the word curiosity. Soma began to explain the details of what had been in his mind on the match earlier.
True to her own thought, Hina listened to his explanation and nodded her head in silent understanding. As they were talking, the match started, but Hina, who usually focused on the match, kept glancing at Soma. She squeezed her brain to remember every word that spilt from his mouth.
Not Just Hina but the other two also began to turn their attention toward Him. Soma wonders what they had in mind but decides to brush it off and will let the girls face it themselves, for he believes in their own strength.
The four of them began to exchange conversation, discussing something related to enhancing one\'s own strength in martial Arts.
"So, that is why you keep defending at first".
Hina covers her mouth, lost in her own thoughts.
"I see, you can use it like that in that situation. Then if I just…".
Serafina began to form mental images of how she used her own Martial power in a fight.
"Mm? Soma, is there any secret in your training? ".
Xiao Lian directly asked a question that had been plaguing the other two minds.
"Um, well".
After hearing her question, several things came to mind. One is because of his innate skills, and the second is the breathing techniques that will help the user efficiently comprehend their way of pursuing strength.
Soma felt a bit conflicted. He felt sad that he couldn\'t share his breathing techniques. So, he began to create a cover-up story until he could find a perfect method for them to power up.
Besides, there are currently many solutions to this. Still, the one and most effective method is none other than gradually polishing each technique to its limit and using it at the moment, which will give them an advantage.
"I see".
"Mm, thank you, Soma".
"Then, that is what we will do".
Hearing Hina, Xiao Lian, and Serafina\'s replies made Soma sigh in relief. He began to give the girls some advice regarding their martial path.
Even though cheering and clapping sounds reverberated inside the stadium; the four continued their discussion as if they were engulfed in their worlds.
Hina, Xiao Lian, and especially Serafina, who still seem to have little knowledge about martial arts, listen silently to what Soma has in mind.
They greedily absorbed Soma\'s knowledge and enlightenment regarding martial arts. The girls\' eyes were shrunken, and sometimes, they nodded their heads, understanding Soma\'s point.
While the four of them chatted, the match in the Arena resumed. Most of the match was dominated by the senior division, which was superior in every aspect. There was also a match pitting the same first-year against each other.
Regarding the competition within the day, only three contestants from first-year students managed to pass the second round.
Day passed, and the sun that hung above the sky began to shift its place, tilting its eye slightly toward the west. A chilly autumn wind, accompanied by the warm rays of the sun, filled the entire Arena, which seemed to haven\'t lost its vigour.
Despite having a lot of boring matches because of the difference in strength, sometimes it pleased them with the battle between an equal opponent, making the spectators still decide to stay in the place.
{Now for the last match that will unfold. It will put together first-year students; both participants seemed to arrive at the same time}
After stepping his feet onto the path that would lead him toward the Arena, Leon regulated his breathing and kept his focus straight on the opponent in front of him.
Leon\'s opponent was a female student. Her name is Tiara. She is the representative from Class B. She had a beautiful face. Her striking red eyes and straight blonde hair gave her a much more elegant atmosphere compared to other students her age.
She was taller than any other girl, standing 167 cm tall. She also had some assets in her body; she was much too grown up to be called a teenager.
Like Hina, she used fire magic, but she focused solely on becoming a magician, while Hina focused on both Magic and Sword.
They also know each other because they came from the same country and were childhood friends.
"It\'s been a while, Leon Pendragon".
"It\'s been a while, Tiara Le Fay".
Sitting calmly watching the match, Soma watches the meeting between those two rivals.
Tiara Le Fay is the descendant of one of the great wizards from Great Britain, Morgana. She is also one of the members of the Camelot guild after being invited by the current head of the guild.
Since they were children, both of them were so close. Tiara held a special feeling in her heart for Leon.
However, after a certain event happened to Leon in his childhood, a seed of misunderstanding began to sprout between them, and their relationship was relatively opposed to each other.
Soma turned his head to the side, watching Hina\'s figure, who focused her attention toward the Arena. Her eyes were clear and filled with anticipation about what kind of match would happen.
In the story, Hina and Leon\'s relationship triggers the hostile relationship between Leon and Tiara because of Tiara\'s jealousy, which makes Hina\'s figure, who keeps getting attention from Leon, repulsive.
At least after Soma gets Hina\'s hand in a relationship, Tiara should not become a hindrance in the future if she plays well, but all of that depends on Leon\'s effort. Soma could only hope that their relationship could bloom.
Lee briefed the two contestants in the Arena, and once they reached a considerable distance, Laon summoned his longsword. Tiara is a long wand made from high-quality wood decorated with red spheres on its tips.
Lee, who watched both contestants ready, swung his hand down.
"The match begins".
As soon as Lee finished his word, Leon, who decided to strike first, halted in his steps as he watched multiple magic circles float around Tiara\'s sides.
Spark began to emerge; its brilliant orange brought forth a searing heat that burned the air around her. But admits all of that, Tiara kept her composure, and the flame tongue danced wildly in the air before it condensed into a lance shape. The shape was compressed into thinner sides and focused on agility rather than power.
"Fire lance".
Tiara raised her wand, and the lance that floated near flew straight toward Leon. The fire lances were approaching fast; Leon knit his brows and brandished his sword.
He gripped the hilt tightly and, using the sword\'s body and his footwork, deflected the fire lance trajectory until he did the same with the other lance, moving forward.
Spark danced the heat that stung his skin and made his pores open. The burning oxygen around him made Leon a bit suffocated by the lance, but after he Deflected all of the lance, he planned to rush toward Tiara and end the fight instantly, but he made a mistake.
Tiara clenched her fist, and a magic circle began to emerge below Leon\'s feet; it enveloped his entire being.
"Inferno".
A bright pillar of fire began to sprout from beneath him. The glorious orange light that shone in the stadium brought everyone\'s attention and gave them a sense of horror because a person had just been swallowed by it.
"This is my win!".
