The Reincarnation Room
The Phoenix Festa (III) Final

A violent explosion ensued in the middle of the arena, creating a fierce fire wave that swept out in all directions.

However, all of a sudden the fire wave flowed back to the center of the explosion like aspirated water.

Both Ayato who had retreated several meters from the center of the explosion and I who was still standing still behind her were quite stunned by this scene.

In front of the two of them, Ryan was seen lifting the Seraph aloft. All of those huge fire waves fused together and surrounded the white light sword blade belonging to the Seraph, creating an extremely hot fire tornado sword.

“This!” Ayato and I were both speechless with all of this. 

Previously, Ayato and I had heard from Claudia that Ryan had used the Seraph to manipulate the wind and could also change the battlefield.

However, they did not expect that Ryan could manipulate the flames of the explosion as well. Therefore, now I cannot attack recklessly anymore.

Moreover, the Type 39 Lux Laser Cannon Wolfdora had an attack that always triggered powerful explosions. I myself am very proud to have created a powerful Lux destroyed like this. But, if the effect of the explosion could be manipulated by the opponent, then it would be extremely dangerous.

In less than three seconds, all the flames around Ryan had been compressed in his blade. The red fire tornado that enveloped the Seraph now fused with the blade of the sword, turning the energy sword that was originally white, into a red color.

Ryan looked at Ayato with a smile. "I'm giving this back to you!"

After which, the red sword blade of the Seraph suddenly broke apart and turned into hundreds of fireballs that floated around Ryan. 

Immediately, the fireballs shot out like bullets towards Ayato who was walking backwards.

"Yailo!" I couldn't help but scream loudly at this pseudo-like sight

"Don't panic." Ayato immediately calmed my worries. After which, he immediately stopped his steps and closed his eyes.

Right now, in Ayato's mind, he was imagining a small circle centered on himself, with a diameter of about two meters. This circle was Ayato's imaginary absolute defense area.

A moment later, several fireballs began to enter the area of the absolute defensive circle. Feeling this Ayato suddenly opened her eyes.

"Amagiri Shinmeiryuu Middle Level: Yatagarasu!"

Instantly, Ayato began to perform endless sword dances with astonishing speed. He swung Ser-Veresta and cut off every fireball that entered into the absolute defensive circle. 

One after another the fireballs that Ayato slashed out exploded, turning into sparks and disappearing completely in the air.

From start to finish, not a single fireball fell onto Ayato's body.

"Great!" Cecily Wong who was behind Ryan could not help his admiration. Shortly afterwards, he grinned and said, "Unfortunately, my Teacher's sister is not a passive person."

Almost at the same time as Cecily Wong said, a faint voice splitting the sky suddenly sounded.

Slash

A dark shadow that tore through the wind suddenly appeared near Ayato. The pure white energy sword drove away carrying the whistling wind screech towards Ayato.

Ayato was very surprised by this. Quickly, Ayato instantly swung Ser-Veresta and stopped right in front of her chest.

Weeengs

The white and black swords smashed into each other, creating a sharp impacting sound.

This collision caused a fairly strong reaction wave. As a result, Ryan and Ayato were both hit back a few steps. 

Ryan and Ayato's eyes looked at each other for a moment. As if understanding what each other would do, the two simultaneously moved forward while holding Orga Lux in their hands. 

Ayato released an extremely fast vertical and horizontal slash, letting the two sword slashes overlap until it formed a cross mark that flew towards Ryan.

"Flashing Seath: Double Kill (Senses: Niruida)!"

At the same time, Ryan let out two quick slashes that greeted Ayato's attack.

Clang

The two techniques collided with each other, producing a loud bell-like sound, and inflicting such a powerful shock that they were both pushed one step back.

This made Ryan and Ayato shocked. They both did not expect his attack to be broken so easily.

However, this moment of surprise even became a golden opportunity for Ryan.

Although Ayato's sword technique was indeed extraordinary and not under Kirin, but the sword technique was only a sword technique. That is, this technique was made to be applied to the sword.     

Ryan is different. The essence of the Nanaya Killing Technique was not a knife attack, but the body and environmental conditions.

Therefore, when Ayato was being shocked and pushed back, ignoring the softness, Ryan immediately accelerated and launched a hard kick into Ayato's stomach.

Nodded

The sound of a blunt object hitting the body sounded extremely loud.

"Ugh!" Amagiri Ayato suddenly groaned in pain. His body bounced back and rolled on the ground for several meters.

When Ayato's body stopped rolling, a sword of pure white light suddenly appeared in her gaze and pointed towards her throat.

Weeengs

Along with the squealing sound, the tip of this dazzling sword of light suddenly stopped exactly a few milliseconds in front of Ayato's neck. This made Ayato completely unable to move.

While continuing to brandish the Seraph to the neck of Ayato who was still lying on the ground, Ryan looked at Ayato and muttered to himself, “This is too easy. Defeating Ayato who could only remove the first level seal was meaningless."

Frankly, in terms of strength, Ryan and Ayato with the first level seal open, were on the same level. There's not much difference between them.

However, unlike Ayato who was well versed in Sword Techniques, Ryan was well versed in Killing Techniques which were much more effective in combat, especially life and death fights.

Therefore, even though they are in strength balanced, but in unexpected situations, it is only natural that Ryan can win. After all, the Nanaya Killing Technique could be used in various situations, just like now.

“Ayato!”

Seeing Ayato being held back by Ryan, I quickly lifted the Type 39 Lux Laser Cannon Wolfdora that she was carrying and pointed her muzzle forward.

However, as I prepared to shoot, Cecily Wong suddenly appeared beside him.

"Your opponent is me!" 

After saying so, Cecily Wong instantly carried out a fierce attack on My body.

Tang

With a suffocating sound, Cecily's punch hit Lux's body in the form of a cannon and triggered a whirlwind. At a critical moment, I raised the Type 39 Lux Laser Cannon Wolfdora and blocked the Cecily attack with its barrel in time.

“You!” I can only say with a slight annoyance to Cecily Wong.

“Hahahahaha!” Cecily Wong laughed and said, “I haven't played close combat in a long time. So, let's accompany me to play!”
