The Reincarnation Room
The Arlequint Academy

"All the spectators! After the three preliminary rounds had passed, it was time to officially open the fourth round!"

"This time, both sides were extremely strong contestants, no matter which side, they had made people impatiently watch the fight between the two."

"OK, first of all let's introduce the contestants today. To the east, there are Ardi and Rimsy. During the previous three preliminaries, they always made one-minute declarations, in which Ardi and Rimsy would not attack for a minute from the start of the game. And as a result, they always win! Ardi and Rimsy are also hailed as Phoenix Festa champions!"

"Then, the contestants to the west, Ryan and Cecily. Their performance was excellent during the previous three preliminary rounds. All the matches ended in less than a minute, and only Cecily fought. While Ryan, he was always silently watching from behind. They are also one of the teams hailed as champions."

"So, can we see a different game today? Will Ardi and Rimsy's one-minute declaration fail? Will Ryan make a move this time? Let's wait and watch!”

With the end of the conversation between the two commentators, the cheers on Sirius Dome became even more grand.

On both sides of the arena, the participants began to slowly walk into the arena.     

In this match, there were many people watching.

In the living room of the VIP Room of Seidoukan Academy, Claudia, Julis, Toudou Kirin, Sasamiya Saya and even Amagiri Ayato, were all present to watch. They all looked solemnly at the hologram screen.

In the lounge of the Arlequint Academy participants, Ernesta and Camilla were also watching the hologram screen. A smile appeared on their faces, as if impatiently seeing the epic battle that was about to take place.

In the audience room of the Yellow Dragon Shrine, the Jie Long Seventh Institute, Fan Xinglou, Zhao Hufeng, and the Li brothers, were all present to look into the Ryan and Cecily match.

So many who watch, this match became the top trending on the internet.

Meanwhile, Sirius Dome, the participants from both sides had entered into the arena.

Ryan lifted his head and looked ahead. There, Ardi also looks towards Ryan and Cecily, while Rimsy just stands cute beside Ardi while waiting for the declaration of the game to start from the system.

This was the first time Ryan faced this pair of puppets head-on.

Therefore, Ryan was able to sense something that had previously gone unnoticed. It was a very rich Mana from within the bodies of the two puppets.

Ryan guessed, inside the bodies of the two dolls, embedded a very pure Manadyte as the core. Otherwise, it would be impossible for the Mana flowing within their bodies to be that strong.

A moment later, Ardi reached out, pointing towards Ryan and Cecily. In a heavy but affectionate voice, he said, "Human, we'll give you one minute like the previous game. You can use that to attack us."

Ardi's declaration instantly made the audience boisterous.

"Ooooooh!"

Both commentators also reacted to this declaration. "Had appeared! Ardi's one-minute declaration is back!"

"All who made it through the round of 32 were strong participants. Let's see if this time Ardi and Rimsy can maintain their one-minute declaration."   

Ryan and Cecily Wong looked at each other and grinned.

Tang

A loud voice suddenly sounded. It was the sound of a Lux-type pistol being hit hard on Ardi's head.

"It hurts!" Ardi suddenly held his head and shouted.

At this moment, Rimsy, who was holding a Lux-type pistol, pulled back his gun and said coldly, "The old iron base is useless! Is your head made of abandoned scrap iron?!"

"Whatdidyou say? Rimsy!” Suddenly Ardi protested, "I'll just make the same declaration as usual, but why was I hit?”

"So, you said your head was rusty and you couldn't use it anymore? You deserve to be hit. Also, you give others an opportunity to attack, but you don't think about your opponent's abilities. You're embarrassing Master."

"Oh, don't say that, Rimsy." Ardi's tone weakened. "This is also for the sake of showing the Master's prowess, so we must show our strength to the world!"

Rimsy just kept quiet while continuing to hit Ardi on the head with a gun in his hand. From the beginning until now, Rimsy's expression remained emotionless cold.

Seeing Ardi and Rimsy acting like that, Ryan and Cecily Wong fell silent.

"Mahaha …"

Around the arena, the spectators one by one started laughing, making the sound of cheers that had just sounded, turning into laughter.

"Umm ..." Ryan scratched his cheek and said to Cecily Wong, "Sir Cecily, what kind of expression should we show this time?"     

"How do I know?" Cecily Wong narrowed her eyes. "I don't understand, are those two dolls really idiots or are they just pretending to let us off guard."

After Ardi got rid of Rimsy, he again pointed towards Ryan dak Cecily Wong. "Anyways, we'll give you a minute to attack!"

"Are you sure?" Ryan smiled with a smile. "Then I won't be sad anymore."

At the same time, the mechanical sound of the school badge rang. "The game begins."

Booms

Shortly after the sound of the start of the game echoed, Ryan immediately stomped his feet to the ground and slid towards Ardi. In less than a second, Ryan had arrived in front of Ardi.

Ardi was stunned to see it. "Fast fast!"

Rimsy's eyes also stiffened.

Without any pause, a flash of bluish-white light pierced through space and slashed towards Ardi. The target is the school badge on Ardi's chest.

Slash

The sound of a sharp dagger tearing through the atmosphere resounded all around.

In the next instant, fierce sparks accompanied by the sound of a sharp collision broke out at the same time.

Clang

However, it was not the sound of Ryan's dagger cutting off the school badge, but rather the sound of a dagger lashing on top of a metal. And that metal is Ardi's body.

As Ryan's dagger leads to Ardi's badge, he dodges at such a thin distance that Ryan's dagger only scratches parts of Ardi's body and causes fierce sparks.

However, this hasty avoidance movement made Ardi lose his balance.

Without wasting a chance, the dagger in Ryan's hand spun like a reflexive elbow towards Ardi's badge.

Dorian 

Just before Ryan's dagger was about to hit Ardi's badge, a gun shot suddenly sounded from the side.

Mana's bullet slid fiercely towards Ryan.

Clang

Quickly, Ryan pulled back his dagger and fended off the Mana bullets fired towards him. He looked over and looked to the side 

There, Rimsy holds a handgun-type Lux in his hand, with the muzzle of his gun pointed at Ryan.

Dor Dor Dor Dor

Under the sound of gunfire, all three bullets made of Mana slid violently from the muzzle of the gun. All three bullets hit Ryan's chest, stomach and thighs.

Like a ghost, Ryan's figure moved ignoring the inertia, letting the three bullets pass through and landing in an empty spot.

At this moment, Ardi's body was already stable. He then raised his hands high, making the Mana from his body gather in his hands. 

Shiiiiii

Manadyte of Lux who was in Ardi's hand began to glow. Gradually, the Mana that Ardi had delivered to Lux began to form a large high hammer. 

Without any doubt, Ardi instantly swung the huge hammer forward.

Booms

A heavy suffocating sound swept out like an explosion.

The huge hammer fell to the ground, smashing the floor of the arena, causing rocks and sand to fly in shock waves that spread all around.

However, since the hammer had landed on the ground, it proved that Ardi's attack did not hit the target.

Ryan had long since disappeared from where he stood. Now he has returned to the side of Cecily Wong as before 

The audience was completely silent.

While holding a Lux named Wolnir Hammer, Ardi fell silent. Rimsy was also silent.

In the stadium, the eyes of the spectators were wide. After a moment of silence, they suddenly exploded with overwhelming cheers.

Even this voice rang very loudly within the commentator room. This voice was filled with excitement and excitement.

"Looky! This is so amazing! Unexpectedly, Ryan who had never made a move all this time, turned out to be so strong!"

"Amazing speed! That speed was much faster than Zhao Hufeng three years ago! As expected of Banyuu Tenra's disciple. They are both a strong team!"

The hologram screen hanging above the arena began to replay the scene in slow motion, so that all spectators at the stadium venue could understand what had just happened.

Huge cheers suddenly erupted like waves and instantly rose filling the entire Sirius Dome.

Ryan who held a sharp dagger in his hand, looked forward and said curiously, "Don't you say that you didn't attack for a minute?"

After Ardi's one-minute declaration, not even three seconds had passed, Ardi had launched a counterattack, meaning he had violated his own declaration.

"Hahahaha .. hahahaha .." Ardi laughed out loud.

"Good! Very nice! So this is the strong opponent that Master meant? Really very strong!"

Unlike Ardi who laughed out loud, Rimsy just stared at Ryan. His expression did not change in the slightest, but his eyes emitted a serious glow.

Obviously, Ryan's appearance far exceeded the expectations of the two dolls.

"Is it in the database that we don't have information about?" Ardi raised the hammer in his hand and pointed it at Ryan. "In this case, we will revoke the fair declaration and do everything possible to defeat it!"

Ardi's words made Cecily Wong finally laugh. "You should have done something like this before!"

Before long, Cecily's hands shone, and a talisman suddenly appeared between her fingers. He threw it like a hidden weapon.

"Inazuma, rakka shi, sonzai suru subete no mono o shoumsu sa semasu! Kogeki!"

With the hand seals and command of Cecily Wong, a piece of talisman that flew into the air instantly emitted a dazzling ray of lightning.

Sensing danger, Ardi immediately retreated, while Rimsy flew into space using a jetpack behind him.

Jeder

A flash of lightning that was in the air shot out filled the arena and shattered the floor, as if it was a natural disaster that caused a powerful explosion.

Rimsy who flew in the air, put a light shield in front of his body. Lightning as well as the impact of his attack, were all capable of being blocked.

Tap

Shortly after, the sound of feet tearing the ground rang out in Ardi's ears.

"Could it be .." Ardi immediately looked to the side.

There, a man appeared with a grinning smile. The dagger in his hand flashed towards Ardi.

What incredible speed.

Ardi who had just made a defensive shield in front of him was unlikely to make another new defensive wall quickly.

Currently, Ardi could only raise his Wolnir Hammer.
