The climax is going to happen soon

"Tamazuki!"

Julis leaped into him and hugged him tightly when the battle ended. She trusted him, and she knew he would win, yet she had to say the way he won had always been amazing.

"As expected of Father..." Ardy lost thoroughly, but even so, he was amazed by Tamazuki's strength. Moreover, even with such an intense attack, Tamazuki could maintain his accuracy to the perfect level. Except for his badge, he was completely unharmed from Tamazuki's last attack.

Well, not completely, since the flame was rather hot.

Rimcy also joined and looked at Tamazuki curiously since it would be her first time to see her father so close.

Meanwhile, Julis, whose ability was flame manipulation, had a certain degree of immunity to a flame, so even if his flame was still razed to the ground, she was alright.

Yet, on the ruined stage, instead of the four of them, everyone was more cornered about the blazing flame, which was extremely noticeable on the ground.

Was this the ability of Ser-Veresta?

Or?

The mere thought of that possibility made them shudder, so they quickly shut down their minds and thought that everything was Ser-Veresta's ability.

"He won." Saya was surprised and strangely delighted.

"Yes..." Amagiri felt complex as he saw Tamazuki's victory.

If Amagiri thought carefully, this battle showed many things, such as Amagiri's Style was utterly useless on Tamazuki, so if he wanted to win, he needed to do something. Yet, he didn't think such a thing since, in his mind, everything was preoccupied with the view of Julis hugging Tamazuki intimately.

"Come on, Ayato. We have to get ready for our next match."

"Ye-Yeah."

Hearing those words, Amagiri felt glad since he didn't have to see how intimate they were any longer.

---

"Ah... they have lost..." Ernesta sighed, but she would be lying if she didn't expect this, yet she wasn't completely disappointed since the world should be able to see how strong her puppets were.

"He is so strong..." Camilla knew that Tamazuki was strong, but she didn't expect that he would be this strong.

"This should be expected. The moment he told us that he could learn Seisenjutsu, then the possibility of him learning the abilities of Strega and Dante should be possible." Ernesta shrugged her shoulders helplessly. "But this is good."

"...what do you mean by good?"

"It means that he is better than I had thought to be. Now, I am fired up to make him become my husband!" Ernesta suddenly felt her body boiling with a fighting spirit, ready to make Tamazuki her husband.

"......."

Camilla had to say Ernesta had always been Ernesta.

"Ahh... I really can't wait to fight with him." Xinglou let out a helpless sigh as she looked at her two disciples. "Hufeng, Cecily, are you two ready for your match?"

"Yes." 2x

The two answered at the same time. While they were in a daze when they saw Tamazuki's strength, they would only meet Tamazuki and Julis at the final. Before that, they were going to fight in the semi-final.

"Now that you've mentioned it. Who are your opponents?"

While Xinglou was a battle maniac, she still knew that if Hufeng and Cecily Wong wanted to face Tamazuki, they had to win their next match first. She might have confidence in her disciples, but it didn't mean they could underestimate their opponents.

Nevertheless, all of her attention had been on Tamazuki all the time, so she forgot to see the protagonist.

"They are Amagiri Ayato and Saya Sasamiya."

"Similar to Inugami and Princess. Those two are from the Seidoukan."

"Ah... the Seidoukan really has a lot of good seedings..." Xinglou sighed, feeling a bit jealous of Seidouka, who could get so many good students. While the rest of the school could hardly enter the semi-finals of the Festa, two teams from the Seidoukan had entered the semi-final, and one of them had just won the seat in the final.

"Can you two win?"

"Yes!" 2x

The two answered with confidence. Amagiri and Saya might be a dark house, but this was their limit, and in the next match, they were going to take them down before they met their real opponents.

Watching how Tamazuki won the match, Claudia smiled as she knew that he wouldn't disappoint her, but watching how he was hugged by Julis, showing the world how intimate they were, she felt jealous. After all, wouldn't this show that Julis would be his official girlfriend? Then, when they graduated, they would marry each other.

Frankly, Claudia wasn't the only one who thought that way, but the others knew their position, and they accepted to become his mistresses.

Yet, that was the others; as for her, how could she give up the position of the official wife so easily?

However, even if she wished to do so, she might not be able to fight Julis to get the position of the official wife since she knew her time was limited, and it was about time for her to achieve her second wish.

---

While the others didn't think there was a meaning behind Tamazuki's victory as they only thought that he was only closer to the championship, it was different from the people who gathered at the special conference room at Galaxy's headquarters.

All the executives of the Galaxy gathered in this place, watching the result of Tamazuki's victory. While they had expected a small percentage of him to be the victor in this match, they were in silence when they saw his might. They weren't surprised by his victory. Only they slightly lose their calm when they see how strong he is since his strength is an unexpected element.

Yet, with this, they had made up their decision, and they had to eliminate Claudia as her existence might bring ruin to the Galaxy.

Everything was for the Galaxy.

All executives had only that thought on their minds.

Including Claudia's mother.

Nevertheless, they made a plan, so this unstable factor wouldn't interrupt with their plan.

Tamazuki was resting in the preparation room along with Julis, Kirin, Flora, Priscilla, and Irene.

After their match, Irene, Priscilla, Kirin, and Flora quickly came to him.

Yet, somehow, he also saw another heroine who he hadn't seen for a while in her invisible form. Frankly, after that kiss, he hadn't done anything to her, as if he had forgotten her, yet hopefully, she could forgive him as he was quite busy currently.

Right now, all of them were watching the next semi-final match, which would be held soon after the ruined stage was fixed.

"Who do you think will win?"

As usual, Julis asked this question.

"One of them is from the Seidoukan, right? Do you know them?" Irene asked.

While the popularity of Saya and Amagiri was reduced because of Tamazuki's existence, they were still famous dark horses of the Festa. It was their first time appearing in the Festa, yet unlike Tamazuki and Julis, who were famous, those two were just nameless students, so their results surprised everyone.

"It should be the students from our school who will win," Tamazuki answered.

"Huh? Why? Did you say that because you want to cheer the students of the same school as you?" Irene asked with doubt.

"Did you have a relationship with Sasamiya?" Julis looked at him with doubt.

"....."

Tamazuki was speechless, wondering why they pictured him as a hungry beast who would chase after every heroine. He let out a helpless sigh and only said, "No, because I know that will be the result."

They felt confused by his words, but he didn't bother to explain them anymore as he told them to just watch the match.

As expected, when the match started, the two pairs fought with all of their might, before in the end, the winner was the pair of Sasamiya Saya and Amagiri Ayato.

Tamazuki looked at the sky covered by a dome and thought that the protagonist's armor was as strong as ever.
