In the semifinals of the Bushin Martial Competition, he defeated Liushin.

　It was Liushin who had turned into a black dragon, but he easily fainted after hitting him hard with his weakness, the light attribute magic.

　Well, I was about to get a little carried away by being able to fully turn into a dragon, so it would have been a good medicine.

　Just like I have something to learn from the wise man Luano, there is a higher up. I must be aware of that and constantly work to improve myself.


　The unconscious Ryushin had returned to his human form. It was said that if he turned into a complete dragon in the height of his emotions, like this time, he would not be able to return to human form.

　Even if it was a coincidence, it's good that he's able to return to his original form properly.

　A dragonling who has taken the time to fully turn into a dragon, will be able to return to human form without any problems. And even if they turned into a dragon due to their emotional upsurge, once they return to their original form, they won't need to worry about it afterwards.


''Thank you, Hurt-san, for stopping Ryushin. And then also for turning him back to his original form........thank you so much.

　Luca thanked me.

　Even if he was able to fully transform into a dragon, if he couldn't return to his human form, his life afterwards would be inconvenient. Of course, he would not be able to attend the magic academy in the future.

　The signs of outbursts could be seen in the Ryushin who had turned into a full dragon. I stopped it, so Luca thanked me for my help.

''No, more importantly, you need to recover Ryushin. I'll give you the Elixir if you need it.''

　I wasn't recovering Ryushin since Luca is a better recovery magic user than me.

''Thank you. After turning into a dragon, your natural healing power will increase, so you won't use that much magic power to recover. So there's no need for the elixir.

　Luca bowed to me lightly as he said that and left the hall with Ryushin, who was being carried out on a stretcher.



''Halt, when you play with us, I'm going to ask you to prohibit all but the High Kingdom and the Knight of Fire.

　As I watched Liushin being carried away, Meldy spoke to me.

'Fine but Meldy has to beat Leo in the next matchup first.

　The second semi-final match was between Meldy and Leo, the former king of this country and Meldy's father.

I'm going to let my father, who hates magic, experience the usefulness of magic firsthand!　You'll be reminded of the limits of physics!

No, no, no, no. Leo...

　I stopped mid-sentence.

　Merdi is my mate, but I didn't think I should give him too much advice.

　I think it's important to lose and find out for yourself.

　Then Merdi went up to the top of the fighting table.


　─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─

　Meldy and Leo began to fight each other.

　Right at the start, they rammed into each other at super speed and began to punch each other in the middle of the fighting table.

　One swing of a fist would send the wind up in the air.

　Such was the level of punching that was being exchanged.

　Meldy had ducked all of Leo's onslaughts with his overwhelming speed.

　In contrast, Leo, with his amazing defense, had received all of Merdi's fists head-on and was able to withstand them.

　It was supposed to be just a father-son fight, but the level was too high.


　After slamming a hundred or so fists into Leo for a dozen seconds, Meldy quickly backed away.

'Ka, too hard!'

You're fast. That's my girl. But Meldi, you don't have the power to hurt me, do you?

　Leo is right.

　Merdi's attacks were hitting, but they weren't working on Leo.

　On the other hand, one hit from Leo's attack was enough to render Meldi incapable of fighting.


"I don't need to be told that. You don't have to tell me that.

　Meldi put on a magic robe.
　And the magic robe was given the attribute of fire.

　With the added power of the magic robe and magic, Meldi's attack power has been greatly improved.

Are you ready for this?　You'll regret licking your magical powers!

　Meldy pounces on Leo at high speed.
　Her movement speed has also increased dramatically.

　If Meldy's magic-enhanced attack hits Leo, it will cause damage.

　On the other hand, Meldi's attack doesn't hit the even faster Meldi.

　The battle situation tilted in favor of Meldy.


　I'm not going to be able to get it right.

Nyah!

　Until a few minutes ago, Leo, who had only received attacks, caught Meldy's fist firmly.

　I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about this.
　I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about this.

　I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about this.

''Fugyah.''

　Meldy rolled around, but managed to get into position and prevent himself from falling off the fighting table.


'What's going on?　Why is your father wearing magic?

　Leo spoke to Merdi, who had an expression of disbelief on his face as he leisurely walked over to him.


"Meldi, you said that I 'don't understand the usefulness of magic' and 'licking magic' - did you say that? That's not true. Now, the beastman who knows more magic than anyone else in the country is the one who is wise... and I am.

What?

　Meldy froze.
　The audience zapped.

'What are you talking about?　Your father was a wise man?　I don't believe it!

I'll show you proof.

　Leo raised his hand to the sky, and a huge magic circle appeared.


''Ultima Thunder!''
"...?

　The ultimate magic of lightning with a narrowed range attacked Merdi.

　Merdi strengthened his legs with his magic robe and avoided Leo's magic just in time.


　Apparently, this is as far as Meldi will go.

　Leo deliberately shifted his ultimate magic and shot at Meldi so that he could escape.

　Leo was waiting for Meldi where he escaped. His fist was clad in a perfect magic robe.

'This has been fun. Merdi.

　Leo's unrelenting blow to his own daughter blows Meldy to the wall below the audience.

　I moved between Meldy and the wall, catching Meldy's body.


　Meldy was unconscious.

　She doesn't seem to be injured for having been blown up so spectacularly. For now, I'm going to put him on his heels.


　─ Thus, the opponent for the final was the former Beast King and Sage Leo.

　Even though it's a Bushin martial arts tournament, how is it that the final has turned into a wise man vs.

　Well, but is it going to be like an enemy of Meldi?

　I have to work hard.

　Even if it was just a beastman with a high attack power and high speed due to his race status, he was extremely wise in magic.

　Leo's magic activation speed was also quite fast.

　Now, how shall we fight?

　I started checking my pieces for the final.
