The Another Soul
Ch. 69.2 [Unfortunate Meeting II]

"Why are you always in trouble!"

Sergio who was in the chair could only sigh harshly the umpteenth time. Really troublesome.

"How do I know! Just ask me ma'am Reyya!" reply Sergio did not lose upset.

"Your first day fighting Villia! Then the second day you duel with Arthur! Oh gosh! You have a magnet to bring trouble huh."

Sergio scowled. One of his friends only describes himself with unimportant remarks. It is better he helps Sergio to explain about the rules of the duel in this academy.

Deiva patted Sergio's shoulders strongly, "Nah Sergio. I want to ask."

"What?"

"Is your weapon strong?"

Sergio sighed, "Beltza."

Suddenly a dark sword that night appeared in Sergio's right hand. Deiva who saw her was suffocated in shock.

"You have space magic?!"

"No!"

Deiva raised his right eyebrow, astonished "So?"

Sergio showed a silver-colored bracelet wrapped sweetly on the right wrist. The silver bracelet seemed to glow for a while before disappearing.

Deiva shut his mouth "Item magic!"

Sergio nodded, "Yes. So it's clear?"

"What the hell are you?" Tanya Deiva is curious.

It wasn't really Sergio who was rich, but his three guards who were rich. Very rich even.

Deiva then glanced at Sergio's black sword. When he wanted to touch it, Sergio threw Deiva's hand away quickly.

"Don't touch."

"What's? Why are you so possessive?"

"Not possessive. I just don't want to get into any more trouble" Sergio replied quickly.

Deiva frowned. Signs he was confused by the intent of Sergio's speech.

"Alright, if you don't want to explain."

Sergio smiled, "Thank you."

Deiva sighed softly "Your opponent is a Saber who occupies the number one seat in the Saber Class. Arthur that.... Strong of course."

"Yes, yeah, yeah, I know. Is there any information about his weakness?"

"Weakness..would it?" deiva Gumam.

For a moment Deiva glanced back at Sergio's black sword which gave off a dark and cold aura.

"Your sword."

"uh? What's?"

"Your sword is a weakness for Arthur, it looks like" Deiva said in a speech at the end.

"It's because you think he has the light element, right?"

Deiva nodded in agreement, "That's true. Not to mention that his sword was very strong due to the gift from Goddess Theia herself" after which he let out a tired sigh. "I hope your sword is as strong as Arthur's."

Sergio smiled in anguish. 'Even my sword hurt Goddess Bishamon' inner Sergio.

Let what happened then be the secret of the five Gods, the three guards and Reina, and the three dark spectators.

"Then what are the rules for duels in this academy?"

"Hm... Actually, each class has its own rules."

"Hooh, interesting" muttered Sergio.

"For Saber, you have to risk something valuable for you. Whether it's honor, things, or anything else. What matters is precious."

Sergio was a little confused, "But the one who gave the duel was not Ma'am Reyya? Should I risk something valuable?"

"No need" Deiva replied quickly. "You don't have to risk anything valuable when someone tells you to duel. That's the exception" Deiva said.

Sergio nodded in understanding. "What when a duel can use magic?"

"Of course you can, but..."

"But what?"

Deiva shook his head, "No. I'm just a pessimist."

"Hey, think positive for your friend."

Deiva scowled, then he booed Sergio's "I thought you'd get hurt again. How can I explain to Rakka's sister later?"

"uh? Just one day you guys are familiar."

Deiva crossed his chest, he looked at Sergio with a slanted smile on his ripe lips, "Of course. Rakka's sister gave me useful knowledge."

"Let me guess. Cooking?"

Deiva smiled mysteriously, "It's not just that friend."

Sergio chuckled, "Sok mysterious."

"Sergio Vandelhein" called Ma'am Reyya from the podium.

Ah yeah. At the training ground it looks like a small stadium with a capacity of up to 100 people. In the middle there is a circular stage with brown concrete that looks sandy. Not to mention there are many sword slashes that prove how long this training ground is used.

And Sergio was sitting in the audience seat with the Siswi-Students away from them both.

Arthur's? He was sitting next to Ma'am Reyya while crossing both legs. The emerald green netra looked at Sergio with instens. Not to mention the bright morning sunlight made her blond hair look radiant.

The name Princeps Lucem was a perfect fit for him.

"Yes ma'am?"

"Are you ready?"

Sergio smiled "It's ma'am."

Reyya nodded, "Listen! This duel will not risk anything! This is purely for training for both of them as well as you!" The honey-brown netra stared one by one at his disciple's face sharply. "I hope you take your attention seriously" Reyya said in a cold tone at the end.

"""YES MA'AM!!!"""

The counter-voice from all the Students and Schoolgirls made this small stadium tremble. It really made Sergio's hair stand up because of the excited cries of the students who carried the Saber Class.

"Segen Ritter!" Shouted Reyya.

"""The Ritter die!""" reply to the students here.

Here Sergio just gaping not knowing with the excited cries of other students. Even Deiva retorted excitedly as well.

"Please let the two of them go on stage."

Sergio swallowed his saliva. Suddenly he was nervous.

This was the first time he had dueled with dozens of pairs of eyes that were watching him.

As Sergio takes his nerves away. Arthur walked slowly down each step of the stairs. At every step he muttered word for word.

"O lux's. Rogavi vos venire ad me..."

Arthur then slowly drew his sword. Those emerald green eyes looked solemn.

Two-sided sword blade visible. The sword looked like an ordinary sword, but before long it gave off a powerful holy aura.

"...Cum sanctis mihi luceat, Lux..."

Arthur has arrived on stage. The place where Sergio and himself will duel with without risking anything.

Just purely as an exercise.

Affirm, Exercise.

"...Archo Theia."

SWUSH...!

All the students who were there covered their faces. It was because of the burst of light that occurred because Arthur used his Archo, except Reyya who was staring at Sergio who was silent with his right hand that tightly held his sword.

"So you already have it" Reyya murmured. Then Reyya smiled obliquely, "It's interesting."

Sergio was currently perplexed by the tremors felt on his Beltza-style sword.

'Why is my sword so greedy?' inner Sergio.

Actually Sergio is holding pain in his body. He felt that his sword was sucking up the mana inside his body.

Not only that, but it also absorbed the light scattered here.

The light belonged to Arthur who was supposed to be the source of his power.

Arthur was not surprised by what happened.

For a moment Arthur closed his eyes, remembering a task that he had to complete immediately.

"Sergio.... You really have to get out of this world" he murmured.

"Hey!" pat Deiva on Sergio's back hard. "Quick down!"

Shaken, Sergio stared at the small stage that looked full of streams of golden yellow light.

Sergio sighed. Then he slightly lowered his head, taking a swing to jump.

VUSH...

In an instant Sergio had reached the stage with his sword that kept on swooping down every stream of light that belonged to Arthur.

"Sorry to wait."

Arthur opened his eyes, "No problem."

"So... Can we start?"

"You sure?" Ask Arthur.

"Ah... Yep. I forgot."

He forgot something. Before, he had only called out the name of his sword. Not calling out the power that was within his sword.

He only learned of this when he got a book from the god Hermes.

He said 'I will not protect people who know nothing about this world!'

Instantly Sergio's mood immediately dropped when remembering the words of the God's message.

"Argia irentsi eta suntsitu, Beltza."

Not to be outdone by Arthur's sword. An explosion of energy with a pitch-black color came out from Sergio's sword.

A cold aura filled the room. The aura in this space was mixed with the dark and light of both their sword elements.

Completely messed up the entire training room of each Class.

Yep. Even the other Classes felt an aura emanating from the Class Saber training room.

The two explosions of different aura elements made one spectator sitting on top of the tree while the slump on the highest branch of the tree frowned.

"Otherwise what you're doing this time" he murmured.

Who her?

Please guess for yourself.
