Chapter 73 - Mahora Budokai 12

'Zelretch is the master of that hooded person named Albiero,' Shirou who was secretly overhearing the conversation between Evangeline and Albiero feel shocked whem he heard that Zeltrech have student in the new dimension. 'No wonder he looks mysterious and annoying. The Teachers and students are the same. '

"That man is Zelretch's student?" Rin who also overheard Evangeline's conversation feel the same thing as her husband. 'I didn't expect Zeltrech to have a student in this dimension.'

"Information regarding Nagi!" Shouted Evangeline. "Where did you get that information! I know that Nagi is still alive after peering into the memory of the boy, but what information do you have? "

"You will find out if you win the bet," said Albiero. "But if you lose you have to wear your school swimsuit at your match!"

"You pervert!" shouted Evangeline while trying to kick Albiero's body which was of course avoided by Albiero.

"How about that Setsuna-san!" Asuna said while aiming her harisen towards Setsuna. "I can match all your moves can't I!"

"I have to admit Asuna-san, your movements are completely different from before," said Setsuna who blocked Asuna's attack using her broomstick. "I was really shocked!"

'Asuna's movements are still a lot in vain but I admit the progress in fighting ability is indeed extraordinary,' Setsuna said to herself.

'The advice given by that strange man really works!' Asuna said. 'My movements have become completely different from before!'

"To Shirou-kun! wherever you are! "Asuna shouted in the middle of the match." I will definitely win this match! And prove that I deserve to be by your side more than Setsuna! because I love you so much! "

Asuna's declaration of love clearly made Rin, Setsuna, Kaede, Gu Fei, Konoka, Shirou and many people in the arena shocked. Especially Shirou who was completely shocked at Asuna's words, who really bold to express her feelings in the middle of the match.

"Wooow in the middle of her important match participant Asuna's has confesses her love to a man that she love! "said Kasumi who was a little annoyed hearing Asuna's declaration of love." That's amazing! "

Asuna, who finally realized that she confessed her love to Shirou in the middle of the match, immediately blushed. Because actually she didn't mean to make a public statement of love when she was talking.

"N-no!" Asuna shouted with a flushed face. "I didn't mean to say that earlier!"

"Asuna! How dare she confess her feelings to Shirou in public like that!" Rin said with a face that looked very angry and a very terrible killing aura. "Doesn't she realize that Shirou is mine! Why she didn't ask me for permission first if she wanted to confess her love for Shirou! "

"Asuna is really want to die!" Said Konoka who felt very angry because of Asuna's confession. "I think I need to talk to Asuna 'properly' after the match."

"I don't know why, but I feel like to killing someone," said Sakura, who was still waiting in line with Taiga.

"Haaah! Forget my love statement earlier!" Said Asuna whose face was still red with embarrassment. "Let's continue the fight Setsuna-san!"

Unfortunately when Asuna was about to attack Setsuna, Asuna felt that her body was starting to lose strength. So the speed and movement that Asuna showed earlier has decreased drastically.

'Your magic energy that came from Shirou-kun is no longer active, apparently you can only activate it for a moment,' said Albiero telepathically.

"You're talking in my head again!" Asuna said.

"Do the same thing like Takahata, use his Kankaho," said Albiero.

'Takahata-Sensei's Kankaho? But I'm not sure if I can do it, 'said Asuna.

'Don't worry, just try it,' said Albiero.

"Ummh, Ki in the right hand and magic in the left," Asuna said while making moves like Takahata to start Kankaho.

Once again a considerable amount of energy emerged from Asuna's body. And Kankaho energy emerges from her body.

"There's no doubt that the technique used by Asuna is the same as that used by Takahata-Sensei, it was Kankaho," said Setsuna after seeing Asuna use Kankaho.

"Impossible!" Evangeline said. "Why is Kagurazaka Asuna able to use Kankaho! Even Takamichi took dozens of years to master it by training in my villa!"

"Yes, Takamichi did take a very long time to master Kankaho," said Albiero. "Combining 2 opposing energies to produce a large amount of energy is a very difficult technique. Asuna can do a super difficult technique that not even Nagi can master, of course you feel surprised right?"

"Of course I'm surprised!" Evangeline said. "Why do amateurs like her able to use Kankaho!"

"Hehehe why can she use it, huh?" Albiero said.

"Let's start again Setsuna-san!" Asuna said.

"Okay!" Said Setsuna.

Asuna and Setsuna collided again. The fight of the two look equal, but Setsuna wasn't serious at all in the fight and didn't used her Shinmeiryuu technique at all. Since Setsuna felt that if she wanted to beat Asuna, she didn't need to be serious at all.

'I don't know how Asuna-san can master Kankaho,' said Setsuna. 'But Asuna-san's increased ability allowed me to enjoy my fight with her!'

'My abilities have improved thanks to Kankaho,' said Asuna. 'Even though I know it's impossible for me to beat Setsuna-san.'

"Asuna-Nee is amazing she can even master Takamichi's Kankaho!" Kotaro said.

"Yup!" Negi said. "Asuna-san's fighting ability is indeed great!"

'Asuna' said Albiero via telepathy.

'What's up Colonel! I'm currently fighting! ' Asuna said.

'Setsuna is currently underestimating you, and doesn't want to go serious against you. Now is the best time to use her carelessness and knock her out, 'said Albiero. 'So move according to my orders.'

"Eh, wait a minute," said Asuna.

'She will attacking you from above, now lower your head and swing your left hand up with all your might!' Albiero said.

Asuna reflexively did what Albiero told her to do and Asuna was able to break Setsuna's attack.

Setsuna was surprised to see the slash she made with her right hand was countered by Asuna. Made Setsuna try to hit Asuna with her left hand.

'She will hit you with her left hand, hit her left hand with your harisen then push your right shoulder forward and then lunge in her stomach to knock her down,' said Albiero. 'And then swing your harisen hand down!'

Asuna did as Albiero ordered and made Setsuna fall. Setsuna's body fell on the floor of the arena and Asuna was standing in front of Setsuna while pointing her towards Setsuna's neck. Making it seem like Asuna could push Setsuna down.

Setsuna was taken aback by Asuna's incredible move that could overcome her entire attack. Setsuna who saw Asuna not attacking again immediately moved and flipped backwards.

"You're great Asuna-san!" Said Setsuna. "Can push me like that!"

"N-no Setsuna-sanI was able to press you because of the help of that hooded pervert named Colonel," said Asuna who felt bad that she urged Setsuna in battle not because of her own abilities.

"I never thought Asuna-Nee could push Setsuna-nee-san like that!" Kotaro said. "Asuna-Nee's ability is improving every second this match goes on!"

"Fighting with Setsuna-san and and then Asuna-san able to push Setsuna-san like that, Asuna-san is amazing!" Negi said. "Asuna-san must have been training really hard!"

In a special stand for the participants.

'Hey Shirou did you see earlier. Asuna's movements are completely different from usual, is it because of Kankaho that she can pushed Setsuna down? ' Rin asked Shirou via telepathy.

'Looks like Asuna-san got help from Albiero Imma,' Replied Shirou. 'I can feel that person using a telepathy to Asuna-san!'

'That's cheating!' Rin said. 'The match is becoming unfair and one-sided, I'll try to interfere with the telepathy between Albiero and Asuna!'

'Don't do it Rin, the ability of the man named Albiero is on par with my father,' said Shirou. 'After all he's Zelretch's student he definitely isn't an ordinary magician!'

'Then what should we do?' Rin asked.

'Let me take care of it, Rin,' replied Shirou. 'Under normal circumstances I might not be able to do anything about it, but right now because I am using Alucard's body, and with the telepathic power of Alucard. I can interfering with the telepathic connection between Albiero Imma and Asuna-san!'

"Asuna-san's kanka ki is increasing!" Said Setsuna. "I guess I have to get serious if I want to beat Asuna-san!"

'The energy I have is increasing,' said Asuna. 'It will be hard to control!'

Setsuna did a stab aimed at Asuna's stomach and she didn't notice it at all but once again Albiero gave Asuna a hint.

'She will stab your stomach, crouch and turn your body to the right!'

Asuna managed to avoid Setsuna's stab and even countered Setsuna's attack by hitting Setsuna's right arm and making her body fall to the floor of the arena.

"Participant Asuna continues to push Participant Setsuna using only her harisen!" Kasumi said. "Participants Setsuna who are more superior through audience voting cannot push Asuna back at all!"

'I actually don't want to show Shinmei style moves before fighting Shirou-sama,' said Setsuna. 'But when things turn out like this I don't have much choice! because somehow I have to win this battle! '

"Alright next," said Albiero who was about to give Asuna her next clue.

'Stop giving Asuna-san a hint!' Shirou shouted, interrupting Albiero's telepathy. 'Mahora Budokai should be a fair martial arts tournament! If you help Asuna-san like that, That's not fair! '

'I didn't expect that you could cut my telepathy with Asuna by force Shirou-kun,' said Albiero. 'How do you know I'm helping Asuna in secret?'

'Asuna's ability that suddenly increase is absurd,' said Shirou. 'Plus I saw your suspicious gestures, it's clear that you are the reason Asuna can push Setsuna in fight!'

'I'm sorry then, Shirou-san,' said Albiero. "I will stop giving directions to Asuna, I was helping Asuna earlier because I don't think Asuna's ability is equal to Setsuna's.'

'I accept your sorry Albiero,' said Shirou. 'But I have to punish you a little!'

Shirou locked Albiero in an illusion where Albiero's body was pierced by a large number of swords, until his body was hollow and bleeding profusely.

Albiero who received the illusion was immediately shocked because he could feel that his real body which was far from Tatsumiya's shrine was seriously injured.

'Cough!" Albiero said. 'He said punish me a little! But he locked me up in a terrifying illusion, which even affected my real body! All I know about Emiya Shirou is that he doesn't have the ability to create illusions, does that ability appear because he takes the form of the most powerful vampire? '

"If Asuna is able to push me like this I have no choice but to use the Shinmei style of style!" Said Setsuna.

'Shinmei ryuu ougi Zankushoushan!'

Setsuna's move made a large number of kamaitachi, and made Asuna's body slightly injured as well as damaged the floor of the arena around Asuna.

Seeing Asuna being pressed, Setsuna saw an opportunity and was about to use another Shinmei move. But Asuna, who felt that she would lose because of Setsuna's attack, began to remember a little of her past memories which Takamichi erased.

Asuna's memory flashback:

"Hey Takamichi, light a fire for the cigarette in my mouth," said Gatou who was very badly injured. "I need one last puff."

Takamichi did what Gatou told him to do and started a fire for Gatou.

"Haah really good," said Gatou. "Asuna-hime, Takamichi you two go and leave me alone here!"

"I don't wanna!" Asuna shouted while crying.

"Why hime?" Gatou asked. "Why are you crying at me like that?"

"Ma-master," said Takamichi.

"Takamichi please erase all Asuna-hime's bad memories," said Gatou.

"What are you talking about Master!" Takamichi said.

"Her bad memories are useless," said Gatou. "Let hime have a new life without having to remember her old life."

"Don't wanna!" said Asuna. "I don't want to forget all of you!"

"You deserve to be happy hime," said Gatou while rubbing Asuna's head. "It's your rights!"

"Gatou-san!" Shouted Asuna. "Don't die!"

"Shinmeiryuu ougi Zanganken!"

Setsuna, who had already used Shinmei's style of style, was shocked to see Asuna holding back her move using her harisen which turned into a broad sword which was the true form of Asuna's artifact.

"Asuna took on the true form of her artifact," said Setsuna. 'What's the matter? why did Asuna suddenly remove the seal that was holding the true form of her artifact? '

Asuna rushed towards Setsuna and slashed her sword at Setsuna.

But Setsuna quickly resisted Asuna's slash using a broomstick that she had strengthened using ki. But what was surprising was Setsuna's broomstick split open due to Asuna's slash. Makes Setsuna have to flip backwards to avoid being slashed by Asuna.

"What's with Asuna!" Rin said. 'Why did she remove the seal from her artifact?'

"Asuna's mental state is currently unstable!" Shirou said. 'She subconsciously removed the seal I put on her artifact!'

"Then we have to do something!" Rin said. 'Because Setsuna is in danger!'

'Calm yourself Rin,' said Shirou. 'Setsuna isn't that weak! She c definitely can handle Asuna! '

"The broom stick I used was split in half because of Asuna's slash," said Setsuna. "This is really bad."

Asuna walked towards Setsuna with a large amount of Kanka Ki radiating from her whole body.

"Wait a minute, Asuna!" Kasumi said. "Sharp weapons are prohibited in this match!"

"Retreat Asakura," said Setsuna. "Let me take care of Asuna!"

Kasumi did what Setsuna told her, because she didn't want to be hurt by Asuna, whose mental state was in chaos.

Asuna slashed her sword again towards Setsuna. But Setsuna looked calm and unafraid of Asuna's slash and so Asuna's sword was about to hit her face.

Setsuna dodged the slash and with a fast movement her right hand flanked Asuna's right armpit and her left leg locked onto Asuna's left leg and Setsuna turned Asuna's body 3 times in the air.

"Shinmeiryuu Ukigumo Tsumuji Issen!"

Setsuna used Shinmei's aiki-style technique to stop Asuna who was on a rampage and made Asuna's body fall to the floor of the arena.

"Have you calmed down, Asuna-san?" Asked Setsuna while looking at Asuna who he still locked his movements.

"Se-Setsuna-san?" Asuna said. "W-what happened to me!"

"Participant Asuna has been taken down!" Shouted Kasumi. "And because she was using a sharp weapon earlier, she was disqualified! The winner of the seventh match was the Participant Setsuna!"
