I don't want to be a heroic spirit

"Besides the two exciting players, this competition is also very special because it is broadcast live on TV. The helicopter in the sky will make the atmosphere even more exciting!"

After simply stirring up the emotions of all the audience, the announcer began to explain the information of the players.

"The first player I want to talk about is only a D-class knight, but he was able to overcome all the obstacles and solve all the strong men in an instant. Even the first place in the school, [Raikiri] Toudou Touka, became one of her defeated opponents. Our fleeting ephemeral flower, the beautiful sword princess - [Setsuna] Okita Souji!"

Accompanying her introduction, the big screen suspended in the air began to play the previous battles of Okita Souji.

However, because every battle of Okita Souji ended too quickly, only her battle with Toudou Touka was played.

Many of the people present met Okita Souji for the first time, and they didn't know much about her before.

But after seeing the battle between her and Toudou Touka, I believe all doubts will disappear.

Toudou Touka also came to the venue, but this time she was not a contestant, but a spectator.

So, she also saw the battle played on the big screen.

She was not dissatisfied with her defeat to Okita Souji. There was no part of the battle with Okita Souji that made her feel dissatisfied.

Because she was satisfied with that battle, she couldn't wait to fight with him again.

But it's not okay to challenge the opponent directly, that way you will only lose again.

So... the desire to become stronger will be stronger than ever.

Not only her, but also several students who have lost to Okita Souji have come to this venue at this moment.

Because they want to see how far the person who defeated them can go.

"Then there's the other player! He and Okita Souji are very similar! The same superpowers, the same mediocre ability values, and the same undefeated sword! He defeated the Red Lotus Princess, the Hunter and many other powerful enemies in succession as an F-class [Failed Knight], and made it to this last game! Can this be described as incredible?"

"Although he is now trapped in rumors, his strength and hard work are by no means false. The former [Failed Knight] is now the [Uncrowned Sword King] - Kurogane Ikki!!"

The announcer is carrying private goods.

Although the outside smearing of Kurogane Ikki is flying all over the sky under the arrangement of state agencies, this announcer has seen Kurogane Ikki's many games and knows Kurogane Ikki himself, and trusts him very much.

"What rumors, it's obviously the truth..."

Akazu Mamoru also came to the venue, and after hearing the announcer's words, the veins on his hand holding the cane bulged.

Not far in front of him, there were three people sitting.

"That old fox..."

The person who spoke was the kimono loli Nishikyo Nin, and the person sitting next to her was naturally the chairman of the board, Shinguji Kurono.

Although Nishikyo Nin's words were full of strong dissatisfaction and disgust towards Akaza Mamoru, Akaza Mamoru lowered his head and dared not say much.

He was only the chairman of the Ethics Committee, and he could not afford to offend the former and the current world third in front of him, not to mention that there was a person who was more important than the two of them.

"Oh, is that the one who defeated my lovely closed disciple? He is also a cute little guy."

The old man who said this had many crow's feet and age spots on his face, his white hair was almost bald, and he was leaning on a gray cane in his hand.

From the outside, he looked like an ordinary old man, and he was also an old man who was about to die. However, Shinguji Kurono and Nishikyo Nin only had a deep respect for him.

[Fighting God] Nango Torajiro.

A living legend in Japan.

Moreover, he was the teacher of Nishikyo Nin and Toudou Touka.

Although Xijing Ningyin has always called him an old man and a stinky old man in a proud manner.

"I thought you were here to watch Toudou Daohua's game, old man."

"Wow, even I didn't expect that my beloved disciple would be eliminated before even making it to the last game. Even I was shocked when I was on vacation in Hokkaido. I hurried over to see what kind of person could beat my disciple, and..."

Nanxiang Torajiro paused and looked up at the big screen.

"The other person is from the Kurogane family. It's really enviable. That guy always has excellent descendants. I also hope to see my Nanxiang family have a good boy to recreate the fateful duel."

Nanxiang Torajiro and Kurogane Ryoma are legends of the same era and lifelong opponents.

"But, pure swordsmen..." Nango Torajiro watched the duel between Kurogane Ikki and Okita Souji on the big screen, and sighed softly: "Perhaps, from a certain perspective, this can also be regarded as a duel of fate?"

At this time, the voice of the announcer suddenly echoed in the spacious venue again, with uncontrollable surprise and panic.

"Huh? This...what's going on? We didn't receive any notification that Kurogane Ikki came to the preparation room. Could it be that Ikki hasn't arrived at the venue yet?!"

Shinguji Kurono glanced at Akaza Mamoru behind him and asked: "Chairman Akaza, didn't we agree that Kurogane would be sent by the alliance?"

"Maybe the alliance made a mistake. When I went there, he had already gone out alone. He's not a child anymore, so he should be fine."

Akazuma Mamoru pretended to be indifferent, but Shinguji Kurono and Saikyo Nin were not fools. They had already seen that the other party was laughing in his heart.

Just when Shinguji Kurono had a gloomy expression, Saikyo Nin was gritting his teeth, and Akaza Mamoru was secretly proud, the next words of the announcer shocked them all.

"What! Even Okita Souji didn't arrive in the player preparation room?!"

Chapter 102 Demon

According to the rules of the game, if a contestant has not arrived within fifteen minutes of the start, he will be automatically regarded as a forfeit.

However, the current situation is much more complicated.

Both players did not arrive, which really surprised everyone.

In particular, Akaza Mamoru also made a big fuss and broadcast this game live for the whole world to see.

Nishikyo Nin subconsciously turned her head to glance at Akaza-samaru behind her. After all, the fox had a criminal record, but Shinguji Kurono shook her head.

"He has no reason to do this. It conflicts with his goal."

Akaza-samaru's goal is to prevent Ikki Kurogane from becoming a magic knight and to prevent him from bringing discredit to the Kurogane family, so Akaza-samaru's biggest hope is that Ikki Kurogane cannot win this game.

I'm sure Akaza-samaru is one of the most anxious people about Okita Souji not coming.

After all, if Okita Souji didn't come, but Ikki Kurogane came first, then Akaza-samaru's plan would be in vain.

Nishikyo Nin scratched the back of his head hard.

"What on earth is going on..."

Suddenly, Nishikyo Nin's eyes changed.

Although Torajiro Nango, who was sitting behind her, had his eyes lowered and his eyes could not be seen, the temperament he exuded also changed dramatically at this moment.

乹　Only Shinguji Kurono seemed to have noticed nothing, but she could feel the changes in Saikyo Nin and Nango Torajiro.

But before she could ask, Saikyo Nin turned her head and looked in one direction after another, with an expression on her face that was more frightened than surprised.

"Demon... This feeling, are there demons fighting?!"

"What did you say?!"

Shinguji Kurono's face turned pale with fear, and she didn't even notice that the cigarette she was holding fell off.

But Saikyo Nin had no time to explain to Shinguji Kurono, because she had already noticed which demon it was from the sharp sword.

"【Biyi】...Edward..."

"That little girl... is she serious?"

Nango Torajiro was also very surprised, after all, she could be said to have watched Edward grow up step by step.

There is one thing that many people don't know. Edward trained in swordsmanship to lose weight, and her swordsmanship teacher was Kurogane Ryoma, one of the two legends in Japan.

As an old friend and rival of Kurogane Ryoma, Nango Torajiro naturally knew Edelweiss. Even though Edelweiss has become the world's most evil criminal, they still keep in touch.

Because he is a friend of his mentor, Edelweiss also respects Nango Torajiro.

"That Edelweiss is serious?!"

Although Nango Torajiro is already old, he is a legend after all, so his perception is much sharper than that of Saikyo Nin.

At least Saikyo Nin did not notice that Edelweiss was serious.

Saikyo Nin did not doubt what her teacher said, but...

"Who can force that person to be serious?"

As the world's number one swordsman, Edelweiss is definitely one of the few people who can stand at the top of the pyramid. Saikyo Nin only knows three people who can force her to be serious.

The international headquarters director of the "Alliance", [KOK] the current world number one - Whitebeard.

The commander of the [Superpower Force] of the "Alliance" - Superman.

The leader of the "rebel army" - the tyrant.

Nishikyo Nin also reached the realm of "demon", but she knew that the gap between her and Edelweiss was still huge.

There are also differences in strength between demons.

However, there is one thing that is very strange. If a demon, and a very powerful demon, can take it seriously, he should also be a demon.

Demons should be very sensitive to the existence of another demon, especially when fighting, demons cannot suppress their wonderful breath that transcends fate.

But at this moment, whether it is Nanxiang Torajiro or Nishikyo Nin, they can only feel the breath of Edelweiss alone, and can't detect the breath of the person who is hostile to Edelweiss.

The reason why Shinguji Kurono can't feel the breath of Edelweiss is that she is not a demon. She was just one step away from becoming a demon, but she gave up this opportunity for the sake of her marriage life.

Edelweiss is fighting with an unknown person, and Okita Souji did not come to the venue for some reason.

Shinguji Kurono and Saikyo Nin knew that Okita Souji was Edwards's sister.

After making a decision, several people immediately rushed in the direction of Edwards.

Before, they did not cover up the conversation because of panic. Fortunately, their seats were special and there was only Akaza Mamoru around them.

They were too lazy to care about that old fox. After all, if they didn't handle it well, the city would be gone!

The riot here was not known to anyone except Akaza Mamoru. They were still puzzled or dissatisfied with the fact that both players did not show up.

The countdown was going on. If the players did not show up on time, they would be counted as abstentions.

I don't know what would happen if both players were counted as abstentions.

Suddenly, a violent noise came from the direction of the school gate.

Not long after, a slightly weak figure slowly walked out of the shadow of the blue gate, step by step, into the audience's field of vision.

"First grade, class one! Kurogane Ikki has arrived!"

Kurogane Ikki was so embarrassed at this moment.

His face was pale, his lips were cracked, he seemed to have lost a lot of weight, his clothes were stained with a lot of dust, and his whole body gave people a strong sense of embarrassment.

However, those eyes shone with unprecedented sharpness.

Facing the dazzling sun, he came to the stadium.

Here, he did not see his opponent.

"Kurotetsu Ikki is already in place. If Okita Souji has not arrived before the countdown ends, then this game will be won by Kurogane Ikki!"

No, she will definitely come.

Kurogane Ikki did not know where Okita Souji was at the moment, nor did he know why he did not come.

It was unreasonable and unreasonable, but Kurogane Ikki believed that Okita Souji would definitely come to him.

He closed his eyes.

The sound of metal hitting metal echoed in his ears, and red stars flashed in front of his eyes.

He was about to face his friend, his opponent, and his teacher.

The opponent was very strong, very strong, so strong that he had fought with him countless times, but he had never won once.

Will he lose? Will he lose?

If it was a battle that was bound to lose, he would not have come here.

He calmed down and kept sharpening the "sword" in his heart.

Sharper, faster, and tougher.

Until a certain moment, his mind was moved, causing him to slowly open his eyes.

It seemed that there was a sword light flowing in those eyes, and when it was unsheathed, the sky and the earth would change color.
