The Reincarnation Room
Against Ryan in the Final

Hearing Sylvia's words, Ryan's forehead creased slightly. He then looked straight at Sylvia's charming face. Under the look of her eyes, Sylvia's expression became somewhat unnatural, and her heart was slightly bitter.

'She must have understood what I meant.' Sylvia murmured inwardly.

After all, the intent of Sylvia's words was very clear, which was to ask Ryan to back out of this matter since this was Sylvia's personal matter. He intends to fight against Valda-Vaoth himself and the organization behind him. He doesn't want to hurt Ryan anymore.

"Are you sure?" Ryan said indifferently as if talking to an unknown person. "I have a way to find Ursula, but I'm sure you don't have it."

Hearing this, Sylvia opened her mouth, but no words came out of her. He doesn't know what to say.

In fact, Sylvia had no way of finding Ursula. If it wasn't for her relationship with Ryan, Sylvia wouldn't have been able to find Valda-Vaoth. Even perhaps until now, Sylvia would still continue to search.

Not to mention, Sylvia did not have the ability to free Ursula from the control of Valda-Vaoth. To free her, Sylvia must defeat Valda-Vaoth, which is not easy.

With Valda-Vaoth's abilities, Sylvia had no way of evading or withstanding mental attacks. 

Given this, as Ryan had said, Sylvia currently had absolutely no ability to free Ursula.

"You think you can find Valda-Vaoth now? Though you spent years before, but not a single clue you got." 

Ryan's words gave Sylvia the final blow.

"Valda-Vaoth is able to interfere with cognition and leave herself invisible to everyone. So if he wanted to hide, then no one would be able to find him. Your years of searching for your master are proof."

With Sylvia's ability as Strega, she can turn mana into a detecting power. However, Sylvia still failed in finding Valda-Vaoth. This is proof of how great Valda-Vaoth is.

“So, there is only one conclusion.” Ryan looked at Sylvia and smiled lightly. "Only I can help you."

Sylvia smiled wryly at Ryan's explanation.

"In other words, do you have any way to find Valda-Vaoth?" Sylvia said, "Didn't you just say that if Valda-Vaoth wanted to hide, then no one would be able to find her?"

"Calm down, all of that was thinking about the solution in my second plan. It's just that, in my plan, I have to win the Festa first to be able to run it." Ryan explained.

"Winning the Festa?" Sylvia looked at Ryan's eyes with hesitant eyes. "You mean, if you win this Phoenix Festa, you can find Valda-Vouth?"

"Right ...in fact, we can solve all these problems without jeopardizing our safety." Ryan then said seriously, "If I don't win this Phoenix Festa, as soon as I get out of this stadium, it's very likely that I'll be wiped out without a trace."

Sylvia was confused by Ryan's explanation. 'Could it be, Valda-Vaoth also has something to do with Festa?'

'Or is the Organization behind Valda-Vaoth and Festa related?'

One by one, questions began to arise in Sylvia's mind.

Seeing Sylvia's confusion, Ryan said, "You don't have to think about it anymore, Sylvia. When the Phoenix Festa ends, you will get all the answers."

"But why would you help me get here like this? You have no reason to help me."

Hearing this, Ryan's serious expression turned into a warm smile. "Don't I ever say that?"

Ryan sighed and said softly, "I love you, Sylvia. I can't let the people I love get in trouble. For that, I'll be as strong as I can in helping you."

"Again, I also got a very hot payment at the park the other day."

"So, let me do it to the end."

Seeing Ryan's warm smile, Sylvia's heart was beating very fast.

Sylvia recalled everything Ryan did today before her eyes. The scene where Ryan saves her from Valda-Vaoth's mental attack, followed by the Laminamors' bloody attack, shows up in Sylvia's mind.

This made Sylvia's eyes look turbulent very unnaturally. He did not dare to look at Ryan's sincere smile and looked away.

Feelings of guilt, as well as pleasure, are mixed into one. Sylvia felt guilty for taking advantage of Ryan, the person she just met, to make her hurt like that. 

On the other hand, Sylvia was pleased with Ryan's expression of feelings towards her. In fact, he felt Ryan increasingly look handsome and dashing.

'This feeling, is really distressing ..' Sylvia's inner self.

~***~

It took Ryan a few days after his confrontation with the Laminamors to get back fit. 

Fortunately, Ryan and Cecily Wong's opponents in the next games were very weak.

They no longer meet strong opponents like Ardi and Rimsy. Therefore, in the last 16 to the semi-finals, only Cecily Wong fought alone. While Ryan, he just stayed behind Cecily Wong while recovering his energy. They played all those games very easily.

At the moment, Ryan and Cecily Wong are just one step away from becoming champions. They are waiting for the results of the semi-final match between Ayato and Saya, against Julis and Kirin. 

The result of this match determines which team will be against Ryan in the final round.

"Yahoooooooo!"

On the hologram screen, it appeared Ayato and Kirin were shouting simultaneously. The Ser-Veresta and Lux in the shape of a Katana clash in the arena of Sirius Dome.

Behind the two, Julis and I seemed to be acting as supporters of a long-range attack. The Mana Bullet from the Lux-shaped Gun of mine collided with each other with a fireball resulting in the manifestation of Julis's Strega Ability.

In the audience room of the Yellow Dragon Temple, Fan Xinglou, Ryan, Cecily Wong, Zhao Hufeng, and the Li brothers were all present and watched this semi-final match.

The excitement of this semi-final match is not inferior to the match between Ryan and Cecily against Ardi and Rimsy.

After all, both sides were extremely powerful Genestella.

Although Ayato and I have no rank, but they have become dark horses within the Phoenix Festa this season. They had both defeated many powerful enemies and became one of the crowd's favorite teams.

Meanwhile, Kirin and Julis were the owners of the first and fifth rank in Seidokan. Rankally, they are also strong.

Therefore, this semi-final match is very exciting.

Both Ayato and Kirin continued to do amazing melee combat. The two of them clashed swords using their respective sword techniques, as if to show the world, which sword technique was the most powerful among the two.

Because of the rapid swing of their swords, the audience became a little dizzy to see it.

On the other hand, Saya and Julis still remained in the back line while continuing to conduct long-range support attacks. From time to time, the attacks of the two of them even made quite large explosions in the arena.

In such a situation, a fierce battle on both sides had occurred. No one wants to give up. The cheers of the audience in the stands continued to echo in Sirius Dome.

Even Fan Xinglou was as excited as the spectators of this match. He watched while clapping.

"Ayato and Kirin both have rare talents. Why is such a person not Jie Long's student?"

This remark illustrated how excited Fan Xinglou's mood was. He even praised the two of them as having rare talents.

Cecily Wong and Zhao Hufeng also involuntarily nodded. According to the two of them, neither Ayato nor Kirin's strength deserved the praise from Fan Xinglou.

However, different things were pointed out by the Li brothers. 

"Well, can Amagiri Ayato win?"

"I doubt it. Without unsealing, Amagiri Ayato was no one. He's just trash!"

Li Shenyun and Li Shenhua's words were spoken in a tone full of contempt towards Ayato.

Indeed, compared to Kirin, Ayato's body had a seal that could only be removed for a short period of time. No wonder the Li brothers underestimated him so much.

However, hearing all this humiliation, Ryan glanced at the Li brothers and reminded them kindly, "Senior sister, don't forget that the person you call trash has defeated you in the round of 8."

The Li brothers face suddenly darkened.

Previously, in the last 16 and top 8, Ayato's team faced the team from Jie Long.

For both matches, no one was optimistic about the Ayato and Me teams. Moreover, after Ayato's seal was revealed to the public, many doubted Ayato could defeat the participants from Jie Long in such a short time before the seal was back on.

However, the outcome of the match was so surprising.

In the round of 16, Ayato and I relied on their cooperation to defeat the participants from Jie Long.

While in the round of 8, I bombarded the Li brothers with his secret weapon, a cannon-shaped Lux. 

With my help, without removing the seal, Ayato easily destroyed the school badge of the Li Brothers.

After that, Ayato and I made it through the quarter-finals with ease and a landslide victory.

Therefore, the Li brothers had absolutely no right to insult Ayato.

"It seems that the winner in this match is certain."

Hearing Fan Xinglou's voice, everyone who was in the audience room immediately turned their gaze to the hologram screen.

Shortly after, on the hologram screen, Ayato who was fighting Kirin, suddenly turned around and left like an arrow heading towards Julis.

Not yet had Julis respond, Ayato had managed to cut off her badge.

The loss of Julis caused Kirin to be shocked. It utilized me to shoot Kirin's badge with her little gun-shaped Lux.

"Game over. The winner, Amagiri Ayato × Sasamiya Me."
