A Single Kick to End It
"Damn it!"
The Secret Sword Summit student erupted in rage, humiliation burning through his chest like wildfire. Without hesitation, he drew his sword with a sharp metallic hiss that echoed across the arena.
Since his flames were inferior to hers, there was only one option left.
Overpower her.
If he crushed her with sheer strength, he could still salvage his dignity.
The sword flashed.
His body shot forward like a streak of fire, the blade slashing down with ferocious speed. The air itself shrieked under the force of the strike. The distance between them vanished in an instant.
The outcome of the battle seemed as if it would be decided in a single breath.
Many spectators instinctively tensed.
Even though Rias had shocked everyone with the Inferno Lotus Art, people still couldn't help worrying.
After all—
She had only entered Celestis Academy a month ago.
How much could her cultivation have improved in such a short time?
"Be careful!"
