Chapter 121.2 ~ Elimination Rounds Day 1 (1)

AN: Hey guys~! Hope you guys enjoy this chapter XD! 

"Mikazuchi Single Strike Technique: Phantom Blade!"

Before Yulias could even blink, Altria disappeared from her sight. The only thing she saw was a light green arc that passed through her body in incredible speed.

Her staff shattered and her body slowly fell to the ground.

Silence permeated through the entire training ground. Not one of them could speak or say anything. No one knew what just happened. They couldn't even see Altria drawing her sword.

"Mikazuchi Single Strike Technique: Phantom Blade". It was previously known as "Mikazuchi Single Strike Technique: Wind Slash", but after Leon helped her improve her swordsmanship and mana control, her sword technique evolved. Rather than merely a slash of wind, her blade became so fast that it created afterimages that would even be invisible to an untrained eye.

Although they could see its arc and afterimages, Verand, Lidia, and Iris who were well-versed in the sword could even barely see the Altria's blade. Only Rafael, along with Leon's player assistants, could clearly see Altria's blade since they're used to Leon, Vyra, and Alex's lightning-fast movements, even faster than that blade.

"M-Match over! Winner, Lady Altria Mikazuchi!"

The crowd erupted in cheers. Even Verand, Lidia, Iris, and Irene all clapped to such a marvelous display of both swordsmanship and magic.

"Hah... Leon has really created a monster. Could all of the students in his class be this skilled?"

Verand sighed and smiled tiredly at what he just witnessed.

"Hm, I don't think all would be on that level, but darling told me that the five students in his team were about the same level as her."

"..."

"Amazing..."

Lidia stared in shock with her mouth agape while Iris was looking towards her beloved in amazement and awe.

Verand shook his head and sighed once again. He couldn't believe how incredible the students he'd teach would become. Her battle sense, speed, strength, magic, and technique were all on a whole different level. Even her weapon's enchantments were incredible. Every member of Leon's team was amazing.

What a son-in-law I'll get in the future...

He glanced towards his daughter who was looking at Leon with eyes full of amazement, awe, respect, love, and affection. Although he couldn't help but feel a little lonely that his only daughter would soon marry a man, Leon would be the only man he'd accept as her daughter's husband and consider him as his son-in-law.

On the side, Mia and Rafael also couldn't help but shake their heads and sigh in unison.

"... Just when I thought he wouldn't overdo it, he made 7 students in his team absolute monsters for their age."

"No, I think we should be thankful that he only did it to this extent... Do you know what would happen if he taught them the things he taught us...?"

"...You're right."

They sighed again and went out of the room to get some fresh air after telling Lily and the others.
