Dozens of dazzling magic circles emerged above the arena, painting the seemingly empty air with brilliant colors.

“Are those… magic circles?”

Looking at the complex geometric patterns, Kurono Shinguuji was visibly confused.

Although Blazers in this world are known as Magic Knights, their magic is fundamentally different. Here, magic is closer to a supernatural superpower.

When using a Noble Art, there is usually no need for chanting or weaving complex spells. As long as the Device is summoned, the Blazer can manipulate their ability through will alone.

To create such a magnificent scene, layering one magic circle after another, was unheard of. For a Blazer, constructing a magic circle was generally considered a waste of mana and time.

However, Kurono knew that in battle, the more beautiful something appeared, the more dangerous it usually was.

She understood that while the display was breathtaking, she was about to face A rank attack.

“Fusillade Fallarica!”

With a low chant, Roy unleashed the wide area bombardment magic he had learned from Lefia.

High concentration mana condensed within the circles, forming innumerable javelins made of pure flame.

The temperature in the arena skyrocketed instantly.

The next moment, the flaming javelins shot out like cannonballs. Their target was clear: Kurono Shinguuji.

Feeling the scorching heat and the terrifying energy contained in the projectiles, Kurono looked extremely serious.

She now had a clearer understanding of Roy’s strength. Even if he were placed in the KOK, he would likely achieve outstanding results.

But now was not the time to evaluate his potential; she had to figure out how to survive the immediate predicament.

In an instant, the dense rain of fire javelins struck the ground.

BOOM—!

The powerful energy contained in the javelins released instantly, forming a chain of violent explosions.

Flames and shockwaves surged, sweeping across the entire arena and rushing toward the distant auditorium. A massive roar resounded throughout the training ground.

Ayase, watching from the sidelines, was stunned by the terrifying noise and destruction. She had expected Roy’s move to be powerful, but not this powerful. The scope of the damage was immense; the entire arena shook.

In reality, Roy had controlled the damage range of Fusillade Fallarica. He had concentrated the power as much as possible, narrowing the blast radius to focus the lethality on Kurono.

Otherwise, with his current Level 6 status, a full-power bombardment could have easily leveled Hagun Academy.

After a while, the explosions finally ceased.

The arena was in ruins. The flat floor had been overturned, leaving only the tiles at the very edge intact. In the center of the blast zone, a massive circular crater with a radius of over ten meters had been gouged out.

The depth was frightening.

Standing in the center of that crater was Kurono Shinguuji.

However, she no longer maintained the cool demeanor. She looked ragged. Her sleek black suit was tattered, scorched in many places by the flames, with sparks still clinging to the fabric.

Her skin, exposed through the burnt clothing, showed traces of burns.

Under the continuous bombardment of Fusillade Fallarica, even the former World No. 3 could not remain unscathed.

As for Roy, protected by Aeriel, he stood completely unaffected by the aftermath.

“How many times… can you use a spell of that level?”

Kurono looked up, soot smudging her face, and asked with a trace of fatigue. Taking that attack head on hadn’t caused fatal injuries thanks to her defenses, but it had consumed a massive amount of her mana.

“5 times should be no problem,” Roy estimated conservatively. In reality, with his mana reserves, twenty times was a lowball.

“Okay. Let’s end it here.”

Hearing Roy’s answer, Kurono gave a wry smile. “You really are a monster. If I don’t use my ultimate moves, I really can’t match you.”

Her mana could support her continuing the fight, but if Roy started spamming magic of that caliber, she would eventually be overwhelmed unless she resorted to lethal force, which she couldn’t do to a student.

“This duel… you win.”

Kurono sighed helplessly and conceded.

As her voice fell, the pleasant notification tone of the System rang in Roy’s ears.

[Congratulations Host! Random Task 2: Fame completed. Obtained 200,000 Dimensional Points.]

Roy couldn’t help but smile. Although both of them still had energy left, completing the mission was his primary goal.

“So, even the former World No. 3 wouldn’t use her trump card?” Roy sighed, feigning disappointment.

“You brat… you deliberately tried to hurt me, didn’t you? Believe it or not, I’ll make your life miserable after school starts!”

Kurono glared at Roy angrily, then jumped out of the crater, her footing slightly unsteady.

“However, Chairwoman… what exactly is your ultimate Noble Art? You wouldn’t use it even in that situation?” Roy asked curiously.
