The final match of the Eishou battle.

Do, do, do, do, do, stammer!

　Here comes the crappy one.


...... Thanks.
So, heh, heh, duh. Se, se, Mr. Second. Duh-uh. ......

　Wise General Muratti Tricolori.
　In a word: ...... "Nerd"?

　A well-dressed, or rather, a sweaty man with glasses who is so bloated that his belly is about to burst through his shirt even now. And he's breathing hard. The distance is close. His movements are oddly agile, and his tone of voice is unique. I've seen him before, he looks like he's in Akihabara.

Oh, yeah. Mr. Second, Kami, Kamina, I'd like to talk about the lightning attribute.

　The stammering. The abruptness. The overwhelming inability to speak. Exquisitely familiar.

　This is not a human, an elf or a beastman. He must be a nerd.

I love magic. Hehe. But I'm not as good as you, or, ah, I see, that's okay. I'm going to teach you all about the four major attributes of the corporal form. I'd like to tell you about the lightning magic.

　Unnatural first person. He only talks about things that interest him. He talks about himself whenever there's an opening. I don't know what's going on, but he's self-contained. They try to gain the upper hand in vain. I bite off more than I can chew at important points. His overall behavior is suspicious.

　There's no doubt about it, this guy is a nerd: ......!

What?　Which one?　Well, I guess things aren't so bad.
No, no, thank you very much, I already know that.
"Yeah, ...... for real? Eh. Well, what shall we do: ...... uh, ......

　It looks like they ran out of leftover aircraft in one blow.

　Something about this guy ...... might be cute. Not in a weird way. If I were to compare it to a child clutching a 10-yen coin and begging for a 30-yen candy bar, I'd say yes. That desperation for candy is adorable.

　In that case, there are two patterns. If it's a stubborn old lady who is in charge of the store, I don't care what she says, I'll just shove her in the face. If it's a gentle jibber-jibber, I'll lose my patience and sell him a third for a dime.

'If you fight a good fight in this game, I won't have to teach you a lesson.

　Very kind-hearted, in my case, the latter.

'Oh, God. Mr. Second, he's a real god.
'Right?　You can worship it.
It's not just a matter of time before you get to the point where you'll be able to get your hands on a new one.
I don't think you're going to be able to do either of those things with your body type.
'Oh, oh, well, that's one for you. Aitaitaita.

　...... Huh?　It's funny. For some reason, it's fun to talk to him.
　This guy is getting more and more used to it, and he's becoming more talkative.

"Why do you want to know about the lightning attribute magic?
I'm glad you asked. I have been studying magic since I was a child. By the way, I graduated from the Royal School of Magic when I was eight years old, that I did. I did go to the Royal School of Magic at first, but I was bullied to death, so I only skipped a year of school. I have spent most of my thirty-six years of my life in witchcraft, and now I have never seen it before. That lightning attribute witchcraft is!　You can't help but be curious, common sense!
Well, okay, I get it. Okay, okay!　Get off me!　Our faces are so close, our faces!
Hey, excuse me.

　He's messing up your personal space.

　But he's graduating from magic school at 8 years old? He seems to have mastered all four major attributes of the corporal form, and he's clearly on a different level from the other contestants.

　The focus on research is also good. You don't seek profit, you don't disclose it to anyone, you don't disclose it to anyone, everything might be useless, and you just do it with a lot of enthusiasm for seemingly useless details that are neither poisonous nor medicinal. That's somewhat sympathetic.

　Muratti must love [magic] unbearably. So do I. I loved Mövius Online so much.

"Let's have a good game.
"Kitakore. I'm going to fight a good fight with Mr. Second and ask him about lightning magic.
Okay.

　Are you getting too excited and crazy?　I wonder if he'll be okay. It's winter and I'm sweating.

"Both in position.

　As usual, they moved into place.
　Muratti walked in a heap. I don't feel any motor skills. I wondered if he was really all right.

　I was going to play with him, but this might take a lot of work.


"--Start!

　Order.
　Immediately afterwards, Murathi unleashed 《Fire Attribute, Ichino Type》.


　From ...... out of range (...).


''Haha!''

　I needn't have worried.

　This guy knows what he's doing (・・・・・・)!

Here we go!

　The flames that fall to the ground and burn, making it difficult to see the magic circle spreading out at Muratti's feet. It's a perfect start.

　Perhaps it has a fixed mark. Unique trajectory.
　Then it's good to know what it is.

Come on.

　I moved laterally and prepared the [Wind Attribute, Sanno Type] after seeing that Muratti was chanting the [Water Attribute, Sanno Type].

　There is a four-way relationship between the attributes of [magic]. 'Fire > Earth > Wind > Water > Fire', with each having an advantageous and disadvantageous attribute.
　When offsetting 【Magic】 by bumping 【Magic】 against 【Magic】, you can basically respond with the same attribute or a favorable attribute. However, if you hit the advantageous attribute, technically it's not an offset, but a "scratch-out", but well, there's not much of a difference.
　What is important here is which is the first move and which is the last. If you are going to hit a player with the same or advantageous attributes, you can only cancel out or eliminate them if you are dealing with a rear attacker. Whether you are the first player or the last player is determined at the moment you cast a sorcery strike. Naturally, the first one to release a magic is the first one to go.

''Yo.''
"Ho.

　With a distracted shout to each other, they bumped each other's Sanno Kata.

　Because my wind attribute in the rear is a favorable attribute, Muratti's "water-attribute, Sanno-type" dissipated in the air.

''Oufu.''

　Instantly, Muratti's MP is further reduced by twice the normal amount. This is an additional effect if you scrape it off with an advantageous attribute. If your character's status is that of a character competing in the War of the Wise, it's a loss that you don't need to worry about.

'But if it's the wind, this is how it would be.

　Next, without a moment's pause, Muratti began to chant "Earth attribute, Ichino type".

　I see. I see!

　The fact that I responded with wind earlier, that's why water was sprinkled all over the place like a mist. The earth attribute should be responded to by the same attribute of earth or the advantageous attribute of fire. But the fire attribute is disadvantageous to the water that is currently dancing between me and Muratti. It's a trap. It's a trap. If that were the case, I'd have to take a hit from the Earth-attribute I-no-Kata.

　Hence, I can only deal with earth attributes.
　I'm being forced to act on this side. I'm still in the same spot.

Good, good!

　It's neither painful nor itchy when you get hit by the Ichinokata. However, that would be boring.

　I immediately prepared the "Earth attribute Ichinokata" and responded by hitting it against Muratti's.

"Isn't it tricky? Well then.

　Muratti chants a feint to chant Sanno-type for a moment, then chants Water Attribute, Ichino-type.

　A flowing, natural blindness. Well, I'm used to it. I don't get fooled and prepare to respond with the Wind Attribute Ichino Type.

...... oops.

　After completing the chanting, Muratti immediately cancelled the Ichino Type without releasing it. He immediately began to chant 《Wind Attribute, Sanno Type》.

　Hmm. If this guy shoots the Ichino Type without taking care of himself, the opponent will probably go down. My INT is quite high, and since she is a professional magician, her HP is low. But normally, they wouldn't go down, and the other side's gun was still in time. That's probably Muratti's fixed trajectory.

　It's also fun to do a little more matching and see where the setmark goes: ......


　...... No, just shoot him.

'Geez!　Well, seriously, ...... is too powerful .......

　Direct hit. Sure enough, Muratti goes down. Now the chanting of the Sanno type is pah. And I saw that it's taking quite a bit of damage. He is wobbling on his feet.


It was a pretty good strategy. I'm sure that if it weren't for the difference in status, it would have been a match. Maybe I should tell them about the lightning attribute.
'Huh!　Mr. Second.
Come home when all the title fights this season are over.
Yeah, I'm coming for sure!　I'll be there for sure!

　Muratti is thrilled. No, he is moved to tears.


　...... This guy probably doesn't care about the wisdom general or anything else. As long as you know about [magic], anything is fine, surely.

　It's good. I don't understand it, but for some reason it's refreshing to see.

"There's no need to be shy. You can come to me whenever you want.
"Yes, yes, I'm going to ......, I'm going to .......

　...... It doesn't seem like the game is in progress anymore. It's a good thing that they're not in the middle of a game, because they're standing on sticks and chatting with each other. On the other hand, they are crying.

　It's just the way it is. It's a good idea to have a good time and get it over with.

I'm going to show you the best of the best. I'm going to show you the best of the best.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah. So get off your ass and stop crying, you're depressing.

　I take a little distance from Muratti and chant "Fire Attribute, Sanno Type".

''You know, I can deal with a single shot of magic in two halves.
Well, that's only half of it. Out of the four attributes, the one with the advantageous attribute
Yes. But isn't that enough of a tactic?
What?　What do you mean?
It's a nibble and if you're lucky, you can handle it. Boring, right?　They say it's all about luck. You can't screw them over by sheer force.

　Muratti tilts his head with a hackneyed face. It's very uncanny, like a good old man trying to act like a good old man.

'Okan style. That's what they call it.'
Chills?

　There are two reasons for the name of the Okan style. One is because the first player who started this style of warfare was a player named "0k4NN (Okan)". And the other is--.


We combine magic with sorcery. Mama's magic.

!


　There is demon archery and then there is demon swordsmanship. It's not surprising that there's "demon magic.

　If it is magic magic, it should be able to be used in the Eishou battle as well, since it is only used in [magic] after all: ...... and 0k4NN-san went crazy and said such a thing, and it was the beginning of actually using it in the actual Eishou battle.

　As a result, I was able to use it without any problem.
　Everyone was surprised and laughed. It was a good time.

　It was a good time to be a mom. Hence - "Mom's way".


"A combination of Fire and Ginseng and Wind and Ginseng. If they are to cancel each other out, they must be a similar combination. There is no advantageous attribute. There is no attribute that can defeat fire and wind at the same time. Therefore, if you leave it to chance, your chances of success will be reduced to one in six.

　As I said, I combined the fire-attribute and the air-attribute and the air-attribute and the air-attribute and the air-attribute and the air-attribute and the air-attribute and the air-attribute and the air-attribute and the air-attribute.
　A picture is worth a thousand words, and this is magical magic.

''Ah, ah!　Sigh!　Hahahaha!
Oh, my God. What's going on?
.......... Excuse me. Here. I was so excited about this. It's a skill I've never heard of before.

　Muratti throws his hands up in the air and shouts out loud, then huffs and puffs and says something like that.
　The show is about to begin, but are you going to be okay at this rate ......?

Compound, synergy, and crossfire. There are three kinds of witchcraft.

　The same goes for other, say, magic archery. Each of them, 《 Compound》 is a skill to release a single 【Magic Arts】 with 【Artsmanship】. You'll be able to get a good idea of what you're looking for. It's a charge-type attack skill that combines the firepower of both archery and sorcery.

　This 《Synergy》 is a pretty important skill in the Okan style.

　I discarded the "Compound" of the "Fire-attribute Sanno-type" and the "Wind-attribute Sanno-type" once and began chanting the "Fire-attribute Sanno-type" again from scratch.


''Compound unleashes magic with magic. Hence, it could only combine two. But if you want to combine magic with magic, that's what you get: ......

!

　A synergistic magic based on the combination of the wind and earth attributes of Sanno-type and Sanno-type to the fire attribute of Sanno-type. That is, ......

I can put all three skills together. The thing about this guy is that it depends on what you put on top of what you're dealing with.

　This is getting complicated.

"The first one and the second one will have to be considered separately. Hence, if you try to deal with this one, you'll have more combinations to deal with: ...... Hmmm, or rather, it's nearly impossible to deal with.

　As I say it, I cancel the Synergy.

　And again. This time, I chant three [magic] at the same time (...).


'I can chant like this at the same time. All three magic formations appear at my feet, but it's ...... very difficult to spot them in an instant and prepare to deal with 1+2 attributes.

　We can do that.

Got it?　When you reduce the element of luck like this, it opens up a huge range of tactics.


　No response. Muratti's mouth dropped open and he let loose.

　Well, it's fun to explain to you when you have such a good reaction.


'Okay, that's the last one. "Remember, it's a tame shot: ....... It's the way to get the most firepower out of your magic.

　I took advantage of the opportunity to prepare the "Thunderbolt Type" and activate the "Tame-Gun".

　This is a multiplier attack skill that increases the more you accumulate it, the more firepower you have. In the case of sorcery, with the net firepower of INT + INT, the maximum time to accumulate the "Tamekatsu" 9-dan is 10 seconds, and the multiplier is 800%. That is, "If you wait for 10 seconds.


If you wait for 10 seconds, you can shoot the Sanno Kata with 16 times the normal power. If you get a critical hit with this, it will be ...... 48 times more powerful.


　...... accumulate. Accumulate. I accumulate.

　The space around me is warped and distorted, and a fearsome yet tremendous power is condensed into a kanno type.

　It's not just a matter of time before you get to the point where you'll be able to get a good idea of what's going on.


''Haha, haha!　What's that!　What's that?

　Muratti, with excitement, curiosity, fear, and all sorts of other colorful emotions on his face, eventually settled on curiosity and asked with a look of sheer joy, covered in sweat, tears, drool, and snot, "What do you think?

'I'll tell you when you come home,'


　Finally, it's time to perform.
　I'll charm you. And I'll update it. The record for the maximum damage of 【Magic Arts】 in the battle against the Eishou.

"--

　The fully-charged 《Tamegatsu》 of the 《Lightning Attribute, Sanno Type》 flew to Muratti.

　Muratti held out his hands with a big smile on his face. An expression that seemed to indicate that he was overcome with emotion. Seriously? This guy is crazy.


''Guoh.''

　It landed. At the same time, an unexpected impact hit the entire arena.


　I checked the damage displayed while lowering my stance.

　The 《Critical》 was out.



　The damage was--931514.



　...... probably. It's probably a number that all of the spectators and contestants here have never seen or heard of before.


　I think this was a great success, and a good provocation.

　With Ichibenzza and Eishou, we also won the "Double Crown".

　I'm sure I'll be able to get a new elven apprentice named Alpha, and I'll be able to disclose the skill acquisition requirements without any problems through a magic nerd named Muratti.

　This guy is so excited for the summer title fight: ......!



And the winner is the second first test!




　　* * *



Hey, did anyone else see this?　Now, Master's, that ...... damage.
Oh, thank goodness. I guess I wasn't mistaken.

　Champagne looks around and asks a question. In response, Cosmos said to reply.
　That Cosmos doesn't speak down ...... This means quite an unusual situation among the maids.

'I thought the two of you were chatting happily about something ......
Oh, shit, ...... is missing a digit or two.


　--930,000 damage.

　That's about the number that even their beloved master, the Second Firth Test, put out, subtracted slightly (・・・・).


　They are servants, and that's it.

　The audience may no longer be donning and may have stopped thinking altogether.


　And.



'............ awesome.'

　It worked great for the contestants.

　He wanted to do that damage himself - and he wanted to do it. We all felt that way, strongly.


　The motivation to play online games all starts with admiration.


　They wanted to catch up with that extraordinary man who won the first ever double championship.

　The flow of the title fight, which has a long history, and common sense was about to change right now.


　And then, the Eishou battle was over.
　And then, the Kongo Battle was about to start.
