Seven star sword festival

Two months have passed since the incident that occurred during training in Okutama.

The perpetrator of the incident remains unknown, even though Kurono actually knows who caused it, she still keeps it a secret, however, Noah is a student at Hagun Academy and it is not a criminal act.

Time was passing and it wouldn't stop because of an inconspicuous incident compared to the start of the seven star sword festival.

After the classification battle, today's Seven Star Sword Festival ushered in the final eight rounds.

Currently the arena is filled with spectators who come from all over the world to watch the match live.

This time the seven-star sword festival was held at Hagun Academy.

"Hello everyone, after a long match! We have finally arrived at the final eight! I am Hangetsu Tsukuyomi, will be hosting this event with Nene Saikyou-sensei! Now let's see the match order!" Hangetsu Tsukuyomi broadcasts with great enthusiasm, while Nene Saikyo remains lazy as usual.

The first match for the final eight was Kanata Totokubara against Byakuya Jougasaki from Bukyoku Academy.

Byakuya Jougasaku is a man with short black hair and wearing glasses.

"Kanata, be careful, I will wait for you here," said Noah before kissing Kanata's forehead.

"Then I'll go first" said Kanata before turning around and walking towards the arena.

"I can beat you in 20 moves" Byakuya said as he looked at Kanata and used his Eyes of Heaven ability.

"Ara... it seems like I was underestimated" said Kanata gracefully and calmly but her eyes looked at Byakuya coldly and unfriendly.

Everyone will definitely get angry when insulted and belittled, unless they are masochists.

"Let's go ahead"

While Kanata and Byakuya were facing each other, the sound of the match starting was heard.

"Francesca"

Kanata summoned the device, when Francesca was summoned, Kanata seemed to be enveloped in a blood-red mist and made her figure even more enchanting but deadly. Her graceful figure would tear anyone who approached her into blood-red flowers.

Seeing Kanata summon her device, Byakuya also summoned his device calmly.

"Diamon dust"

Kanata scatters diamond dust around her to prevent Byakuya's attack.

Even though Byakuya said he would defeat Kanata in 20 moves, the fact was that if he could attack Kanata with his device, otherwise he would lose quickly because in order to activate his ability, he had to hit his opponent first.

Even though Kanata doesn't know Byakuya's conditions for activating his abilities, she certainly won't let her opponent get close.

"Diamond Storm"

Kanata attacks Byakuya with millions of Francesca shards as soon as the match begins.

Sensing danger, Byakuya immediately withdrew from the attack range by teleporting.

Seeing that Byakuya had left Francesca's reach, Kanata immediately covered the entire arena with Francesca's fragments.

..Swosh...

Seeing he couldn't dodge, Byakuya decided to attack Kanata straight away, he teleported behind Kanata before slashing with his device.

Sensing danger coming from behind Kanata makes her magic power surround her body while attacking Byakuya with a storm of diamonds.

..Ding..splash...

There was a sound of metal clashing when Byakuya's device hit Kanata.

After practicing with Noah previously, Kanata creates a skill similar to Stella's Empress Dress.

Unlike the Empress dress which will burn incoming attacks, Kanata makes the magic power around her become as hard as diamond.

...bang...

After being hit by Kanata's diamond storm, Byakuya falls unconscious in the Arena.

After defeating Byakuya Kanata came to Noah who was waiting for her in the hallway next to the arena.

"Congratulations on your victory, Kanata, that was a beautiful fight," said Noah congratulating her.

"Thank you" said Kanata with a faint smile on her face.

"Wow! This was a quick and beautiful victory! As always, Scharlach Frau always delivers a graceful and deadly fight!" Hangetsu commented excitedly.

"Alright, next is the battle of Kurogane Ikki, the Another One, against the Sword Emperor of the Wind, Kurogane Ouma!" Hangetsu said announcing the next match.

"Let's go ahead"

"Come, Intetsu!" Ikki summoned his device.

"Roar, Ryuzume" Ouma also summoned his device.

The Ouma device is a white Nodachi over one meter long, with the ability to generate and control wind from a natural intervention system.

Standing face to face on the field, The two brothers looked at each other for a long time before Ouma spoke.

"I didn't expect you to also leave that boring family," Ouma said to Ikki.

Kurogane Ouma had left the Kurogane family before Ikki left.

Ikki didn't say anything and just held Intetsu.

"Saigeki"

Ikki attacks Ouma with a powerful sword thrust, this is the strongest single attack power of the seven secret swords.

Facing Ikki's attack, Ouma parried with his sword before throwing Ikki away.

Ouma's entire body is surrounded by a high-pressure wind storm, which he uses as a weight and defensive armor.

Ikki stomped his foot to stop him from retreating and continued to attack Ouma with various attacks from the seven secret swords, while Ouma blocked it using Kurogane's family swordsmanship.

As a family of swordsmen, the Kurogane family has strong sword skills, and is not inferior to the seven secret swords of Ikki or the skills of the Ayatsuji family.

Ding...ding..

The sound of clashing swords continued to reverberate in the arena.

After one minute of fighting, Ikki had basically mastered his swordsmanship with his blade steal skill.

"Ittou Shura" "dokuga no tachi"

Ikki uses an attack with a vibration effect to penetrate Ouma's wind armor.

Feeling a numb sensation from his body, Ouma counterattacked.

"Shinkuuha"

Ouma creates a vacuum slash that moves at high speed and is almost invisible and attacks the approaching Ikki.

Sensing danger Ikki dodged to the side and continued to attack.

"Shinkirou"

Ikki moved with strange steps and created a shadow of himself before slashing Ouma with a horizontal slash in the stomach and destroying Ouma's wind armor.

Seeing his armor destroyed, Ouma didn't care because the function of the armor was only as a barrier to his strength, when the armor was removed, Ouma's speed became faster and more violent.

Seeing that Ittou shura's time was about to end Ikki intended to release all his power in one slash, Ittou Rasetsu.

"Ittou Rasetsu"

Seeing Ikki's all-out attack, Ouma also launched his strongest attack.

"Kusanagi"

Ouma pours his magic into his Ryuuzume creating a wind storm capable of sucking everything around him including the atmosphere beyond 50 meters inside and forming a giant sword before slashing at Ikki.

"Raikou"

Seeing the incoming attack, Ikki accelerated his steps and arrived in front of Ouma before Ouma's attack hit him.

Ikki slashed Ouma horizontally from the front before turning around and slashing again from Ouma's back.
