Chapter 252 Supreme Martial Arts Festival ④

Part 2

Spectator seat of the “Supreme Martial Arts Festival (Buteisai)”. In one corner, the Members of 《Strange Freak (Nageki no Akuryo)》 were observing the scene while shrinking back.

Kutry Smyart leaned back with her legs crossed, watched the lightning pouring down from the sky, and clicked her tongue.

“Tsk. As always, it is such a ridiculous power. His power has gone up again.” (Kutry)

“Because he is really strong~. And it’s not like he really needs us.” (Zuri)

Elizabeth Smyart――Zuri agreed and sighed deeply.

Kryhi is strong. Even though he has a name like an imitation of a famous person, he is uselessly strong.

.

He is simple. He is naive, gullible, doesn’t think too much, and can’t use various kinds of magic, which is a Magi’s strong point.

But, he is strong.

Kryhi Andrichhi can only use lightning techniques, which is said to be the most difficult Magic of all Magic techniques. And he loves the technique of scattering that intense light and shockwave, which some call heroic magic.

He has been able to work solo. He was able to operate solo. No matter how large his opponent was, he didn’t lose.

I am sure that Kryhi would have been successful even if his name didn’t sound like 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》.

――He had devoted almost all of his abilities to lightning techniques. The name 《Infinite Sky Flowers (Senten Banka)》 was Kool and others’ idea, but 《Lightning Emperor (Raitei)》 is not a self-proclaimed Alias. If he were to be given an Alias, it would definitely be that one.

Countless lightning strikes throughout the entire stage.? Due to the intense sound and impact, the barrier that was originally supposed to be invisible that separated the audience from the inside was bent.

The spread-out lightning punched deep holes in the ground, and dust raised up on the stage due to the impacts.

It was clearly not a Magic that can be used against humans, but he probably didn’t care about things like that.

Kryhi always uses his full power. And that was both his strong point and his flaw.

Kool Saiko, who had been looking pale since the morning, *butsubutsu* mumbled something while holding his stomach.

“This is bad…… All this…… I still don’t understand what his opponent wants to do.” (Kool)

“Go for it Oniiii-chaaan! Kill that fakerrr!” (Rusha)

Rusha was cheering him on while being *bikubiku* scared of the lightning.

Certainly, Kryhi is strong. He is strong, but I don’t believe he can beat a Level 8.

The Treasure Shrine that Kryhi Andrichhi always ventures into is Level 5. Because of Kool and the others who are weak, he has to lower the level of the Treasure Shrines he explores.

His offensive magic is too unsuitable to work with multiple people.

If Kool and the others had not created 《Strange Freak (Nageki no Akuryo)》, Kryhi would have been able to conquer more and more Treasure Shines as a solo and become an even stronger Magi. But it is not like I do not have any regrets about doing that.

――No matter what method you use, one cannot become another person.

Oddly enough, Kryhi’s speech was a critical hit to Kool and the rest. What would he think if before he knew it, he had become the fake one?

The fact that their Alias resembles each other was just something like a childish prank. I was sure that one day he would have realized it.

――However, now that they have come this far, there is nothing Kool and the rest can do. The die has already been cast.

The “Lightning Emperor (Raitei)” roared. Even more lightning strikes and the light and the impact increase.

It is even more advanced than 『Calamity Thunder (Jurin Suru Kaminari)』, the most famous advanced Magic in the lightning category.

The highest level of lightning attributes magic. 『Ama no Ikazuchi (Heavenly Lightning)』.

The technique, which Kool and the rest would have never been able to witness, was like a heavenly disaster.

It is a fearsome technique that can obliterate even the best-trained Hunters if it hits them seriously. As it is a continuous attack, even a Barrier Ring, which is considered the world’s best defensive measure, is meaningless in front of it.

The rest of the audience was stunned, probably because they had not expected to see a technique like that from the very beginning.

The thunderbolts showed no sign of stopping.

The light makes it impossible to see Kryhi Andrichhi. But even Kryhi should have enough decency to stop his Magic if he had defeated his opponent.

The fact that his attack does not stop is proof that his opponent is alive.

Even Kool’s foresight could not understand the reason why the real one would declare that he was the fake. However, the real 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》 is a strategist, so if we do not play his cards right, there will surely be unpleasant consequences.

Now that we have come this far, as expected, even I cannot abandon him. Since Zuri, who has been given the cunning character, is not saying anything, I guess her will is the same as mine. As for Rusha, there’s no need to ask.

Maybe if we show our sincerity, 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》 may forgive us. If he did not intend to forgive us, wouldn’t he have denounced us as quickly as possible, rather than declaring to be fake in the first place? This can be one way of thinking about this.

However, even if their Leader forgives us, will his companion do the same?

《Strange Grief (Nageki no Borei)》 is a Party that is known to destroy all kinds of criminal organizations and is even feared by blacklisted Hunters. Its members are as famous as 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》. They could probably crush Kool and the rest with their pinky. On top of that, Kryhi is innocent, but it is not the case for Kool and the rest.

His body trembles as I hear the incessant thunder. I then casually looked at the seats where the real members were cheering.

――In the cheering section, Members of 《First Step (Hajimari no Ashiato)》 were shouting and cheering.

They are raising their voices, completely unperturbed by the incessant thunderstorms. At first, I thought they were cheering for the real one, but that did not seem to be the case.

“Gooo! Do ittt! Make him sufferrr!” (Sven)

The one who is particularly excited is Sven Anger, the 《Storm Attack (Rengeki)》, whom I met once before. He seems to be having a lot of fun.

I don’t know what’s going on anymore, but apparently, the companions of the real one do not care at all about the strange declaration of the real one.

I do not understand in so many ways.

“…………” (Kool)

Kool stopped thinking there. No more, the load is too heavy. No matter how cool you are, you can’t know what you don’t know.

After all, I am only a “Foresight (Senken)” imitation of the “Thousands Sword (Senken)”. My edge is dull.

And then, suddenly, the lightning stopped. From the cloud of dust, I heard Kryhi’s shocked voice.

“It can’t be………… You dodged all the continuous unavoidable lightning attacks!? Who are you――Cry Andrich!” (Kryhi)

TL notes:

Thanks for reading!

Hahaha Sven is the best! But I’m sure he isn’t the only one from First Step cheering for Kryhi to make “Cry” suffer.

And what are you doing Imouto Kitsune dodging all the lighting attack!

Tchao à plus!
