“Are you just incapable of fighting like everyone else?”

Adlus must have sensed that he was being mocked, because he glared at me with undisguised irritation . I hadn’t meant to anger him, but I would welcome any result that meant the loss of his concentration .

“Well, after all of your talk, you’re doing nothing but defending yourself . ”

“Hmph . Don’t jump to conclusions, Black Rabbit . My magic can do more than defend . ”

I didn’t doubt it . From what I heard, Heinrich had been trapped inside of water . And I’m sure he had more than just original spells .

“Water Javelin!”

A javelin shot out of the swirl of water that surrounded Adlus . I dodged it while lunging forward .

“Aqua Sword!!”

Just as my own blade was blocked by the wall of water, a torrent separated from the rest like an arm with a tip that was the shape of a sword . It swung at me . I twisted my body out of the way and used Legs of the G.o.d Wolf to put some distance between us . Then I tried to slide my sword in from a different side, but that was blocked too, and then another attack by a water blade followed . Not only that, but every time I moved too far away, I would be a.s.saulted by the water javelins .

“I can’t do anything to him…”

The water autoguard thing also became the source of his water magic . He unleashed magic from magic that he’s activated… I didn’t know that that was possible . Well, it wasn’t that I was impressed with him, I was just interested to know that it could be done . Educational .

“So…”

It was time . I’ve seen his attack magic . And as someone who could use water magic, I learned a thing or two . Still, I would not be able to copy the autoguard thing .

“Aqua Sword . ”

I sent energy to my free left hand and generated the weapon . A blade like flowing water… That’s what I was thinking . What came out wasn’t exactly pretty, but it did seem like a sword made of water .

“Water Javelin . ”

I then used the sword as a medium to create a javelin . Well, it was really a rather familiar looking trident . Like the one from the marshes… In any case, I was able to make magic from magic .

“Yo-you b.a.s.t.a.r.d…I was the only…!”

“This little trick? I happen to be pretty good at copying things . ”

On the other hand, I had trouble inventing new things . But if I had a clue, Jack of all Trades, Master of None would teach me how to do it . It was a great tutor .

I watched as Adlus shook with anger and surprise . Then I followed the instructions by Jack of all Trades, Master of None and sent deep blue energy into the trident . And then it changed…it transformed into an Ice Javelin .

“It can change into magic of a different attribute too . Thanks for teaching me . ”

“Do you have any idea how long it…you…you…!”

“Maybe if you hadn’t been such a show off . You should have seen it coming . ”

Who wouldn’t want to copy something that was better than what they had? Especially someone like me . I had to absorb new tricks if I wanted to survive . Pride did not figure into the matter . And in any case, if I improved on it, it will be mine .

“Now, I guess I don’t have any blindspots left . Looks like you lost this one, Adlus . ”

“No, not yet! It is not finished!”

The undulating waves moved at his command and then a.s.saulted me like a flash flood . I escaped to the air, but the waves followed me . Then I kicked higher into the air, but it kept chasing me . And so I turned to face it and launched my Ice Javelin towards it . As it was swallowed up by the rushing waves, I attempted to alter Adlus’s magic .

However, one was not enough . I wasn’t able to freeze it completely . It turned into a kind of sherbert .  

“My magic… d.a.m.n you…!”

“Hmm . Slushy . ”

The current slapped down on the ground like a snake that had been beheaded . It was quickly no longer able to maintain its shape, and so it drifted away and vanished .

“Now you have no auto-guard . Why don’t you yield?”
“…It’s not overrrr!!”

He shook with rage as he fell on me with his water sword . When the blade was swung, several streams of water branched out from it and twisted towards me .

“Hah!”

A shout and a slash . I cut down all of the tendrils of water coming towards me . And midst the spray, Adlus’s sword came swinging down . There was a loud clang of metal as our swords touched . I tried pushing him back, but he was stronger than I was antic.i.p.ating . I was being pressed back and downward .

“DIIEEEE…!”

“You’ll be disqualified if I do…!”

“No one has ever made me look like a fool before…!”

“Well, thanks?”

While enveloped in Legs of the G.o.d Wolf, I used the wind’s power to kick Adlus, launching him into the air . He flew behind and landed, rolling .

“Aqua Sword!!”

He got to his feet in a flash and created a sword in his right hand . As for me, I had not been in the best position when kicking, and so I fell down on my back .

“Frost Sword!”

Crack . The frosty blade materialized in my left hand, just in time to block his down swing . As I was wearing ice dragon armor and it was magic I was accustomed to using, I was able to do it in an instant . I could probably do it silently now, if I wanted . It was imprinted permanently in my brain .

After blocking Adlus’s attack, I quickly launched a counter attack . However, Adlus was a tough opponent . He created a water shield without chanting and blocked my sword in the nick of time .

“Look what I can do when there’s less water!”

With the ice sword pressing against the shield, I began to freeze it, starting at the point they made contact . My magic overwrote his, changing its property . The water shield became an ice shield and then was incorporated into the ice sword to become an ice javelin . I threw the demon armor sword to the side and with the javelin, moved to attack . I was copying the movements of Bandi, the spear wielder . There was also a bit of the moves I’d seen in kung-fu movies a long time ago . This was mainly because Bandi’s moves had resembled them in the first place .

I would smack down, sweep to the side, swing up . With martial arts incorporated into the attacks, Adlus was overwhelmed . The opponent with the sword was suddenly fighting with a spear .

Eventually, he was unable to keep up . That’s when I unleashed a sharp kick and then slammed the b.u.t.t end of the spear into his face .

“HAHH!!”

“Guah!”

A trail of blood stretched out as he slid across the stage and fell . I tightened my grip, exhaled and calmed my breathing . The crowds were going wild . It was unlikely that Adlus had been pushed this far before .

Now, if only he would go unconscious, the fight would be over…

“Ggg…gg…!”

I was not so lucky . While he was shaky, he managed to get back on his feet . He was using his sword as a cain . And while the legs had enough strength yet to stand, I doubted he had the energy to swing his sword . However, there was a strength in his eyes as he glared at me .

“Not to you…no…never…”

“You don’t have a choice . In your state…”

“Silence…”

He gripped the sword tightly and stabbed it into the ground .

“SILLEEEENNNCCEE!!!”

He roared . And with that, his blue energy increased like an explosion . The body of magic pushed towards me as a giant tsunami . It was enough water to cover the entire stage . I couldn’t just run away . Adlus had clearly forgotten himself in his anger . He was not holding back . It would affect our surroundings…

“Adlus! Stop!!”

“Silenceee!!”

He would not be persuaded… I stole a glance towards the special spectator seats . The Emperor didn’t move . He just stared at me silently .

“…”

What was I supposed to do… When I looked back, I saw that the water was rising faster and faster . He had something even stronger than what was supposed to be his trump card…

Perhaps he felt he had to use it in spite of so many people watching . Of course, he must have had his reasons .

Well, I guess I should return the favor . I would expose a secret that allowed me to survive in this world in spite of being weak .

I jumped back to where the demon armor sword was and allowed the ice spear to disperse . Ice energy now flowed throughout my entire body . As if in reply, the ice dragon armor began to shine brightly . The enchantment gave an added ice attribute boost, enhancing my ice magic . It was then concentrated within both of my hands where they took the forms of swords . Double-edged blades . The blades were about a meter and a half in length . The hilts were fifty centimeters . That was a bit long, but I wasn’t going to be carrying them anyway . I was going to fire them .

“Niflheim . ”

What came out was an elaborately decorated greatsword that was clear and made of ice . The detailed engravings caught the sunlight and caused the surface to sparkle .

This was my trump card . The audience watched with bated breath . I wished they wouldn’t…

“Black RABBBIIIIIIT!!”

Adlus must have felt the threat of my magic, as he set a tsunami on me . While it wasn’t that fast, it seemed like a wall of water . And it was moving towards me . And as I had no choice but to stop it, I would have to show one of my trump cards .

With the Niflheim blades floating in the air above me, I carried the demon armor sword and an ice sword in my hands . Then I activated Legs of the G.o.d Wolf . Platinum and green wind swirled around my legs as I ran up into the air . The oncoming waves were intimidating, but I had no choice but to face it . The spectators behind me would be in danger . If only we were in some level, empty land…

The unleashing of the three swords was how I had killed the Loup-garou . I would freeze my target and then cut it into pieces .

“You! You’re going to have a lot to answer for when this is over!!”

“DIIIEEEE!!”

Adlus just roared back . The ama.s.sed wind pressure allowed me to accelerate all at once . I moved to the tsunami and swung my sword . The Niflheim blades shot out and froze the tsunami in a flash . At the same time, I swung the two swords in my hands, cutting an ‘X’ through the ice .

“Kamiyashiro-style: Final Frost Triple Threat!!”

Normally, I would have thrust my swords into the target . After all, the name came from the fact that I’d break a b.l.o.o.d.y ice statue . Of course, there was no point in doing that to a normal block of ice .

Niflheim and the ice swords shattered . I held the remaining demon armor sword on my shoulder as I watched the four pieces fall apart and shatter .

Adlus’s final act had been in vain . He looked up at me . Stunned . There was nothing left for him to do .

A moment later, the battle was over . Of course, I had won based on my performance .
