Chapter 829 - Duel 2 (2/2)
Cecilia didn't understand why he could dodge all of her attacks. She also felt annoyed since she hadn't seen him take out his weapon.
”Well, Cecilia, if it is all of your ability then I might end the duel soon.”
Haru had seen more of Cecilia's IS's ability, but he knew that she kept her trump card for last.
”Hmph! Let's see whether you can do that!”
Cecilia combined the attack of the flying cannons together with her sniper rifle.
The volley of the beams was very dangerous and attacked him from a different direction at the same time which made the audience exclaimed in surprise.
---
”Amazing....”
Watching the battle between the two of them, Ichika had to admit that IS was more amazing than he had thought. He also wanted to have his IS, but he wasn't sure whether he could get it.
”What are you doing, Kasugano! Hurry up and use your weapon!”
Houki screamed since she was very impatient to see him being attacked by Cecilia. Though little did she know that all of Cecilia's attacks had missed their target and she couldn't see the battle clearly since the arena was covered in dust because of Cecilia's frantic attacks.
However, Houki had a feeling that Haru was going to win this duel.
---
*Boom!* *Boom!* *Boom!*
Cecilia didn't give up, but she was wondering whether Haru's machine could give her optic illusions or predicted the attack of his opponent which made it very hard to attack him. She had always wondered how he could dodge all of her attacks while she continued to attack him.
However suddenly Haru stopped moving, Cecilia thought that it was a chance. ”It's a chance!” She didn't hesitate to shoot her sniper rifle together with her flying bits.
”It's over!”
*BOOOM!!!*
Seven blue beams were shot at Haru at the same time creating a huge explosion.
Haru was covered in dust which made everyone worried that he had lost the battle after that attack.
”It's my win, that's what you think, right?”
Cecilia thought that she was the winner, but she heard his voice. ”Y - You haven't lost?” But she saw a grim red light inside the dust and she saw it slice apart the dust on the surrounding clearing area showing the figure inside.
”!!!!”
Everyone was surprised when they saw Haru holding the weapon in his hand.
Beam Scythe.
To be exact, it was Twin Beam Scythe.
As implied by its name, the twin-beam scythe has an extra beam emitter giving it two beam blades. It also has a rocket thruster to give it extra momentum in use, effectively quadrupling the power of the scythe.
The color of the beam was grim red which gave an image that this weapon was used to destroy their enemy without mercy.
---
”W - What a weapon....”
Everyone who watched the duel would have never expected Haru's choice of weapon to be a scythe.
Maya and Chifuyu were the same, even though they knew the name of Haru's Infinite Stratos was Deathscythe Hell, but when they saw it for the first time, they couldn't help but exclaim.
It really surprised them since even if the scythe was strong, it was very hard to use since it wasn't fit to be used in the battle.
---
Ichika and Houki were the same. In the past week, they spent their time training together, but they would have never expected that Haru was a scythe user.
---
”Cecilia, be careful.”
Haru closed his face with a helmet once again making his appearance more intimidating.
Cecilia was also quite startled by Haru's weapon, but she thought that scythe was very hard to use and she didn't think that she would lose against him.
”You should prepare yourself to call me ”Ojou-sama” later!”
”Then, you should prepare yourself to call me ”master” when there's only two of us alone...”
Cecilia blushed hearing his words and shot a volley of beams at Haru.
*Boom!* *Boom!* *Boom!*
Haru only waved his scythe lightly destroying all of the attacks.
His scythe is very powerful and the heat and the powerful magnetic field it produces can begin to disintegrate the target even as the beam blade approaches. It can also be used underwater which can cleave anything.
Haru started to move and severed the six flying cannons on his surroundings very quickly.
*Boom!* *Boom!* *Boom!*
Cecilia was in shock, but she didn't have time to relax since he appeared right in front of her. She gulped, but she smiled since she had other weapons in her arsenal. She shot out two missiles from the bottom of her skirt.
However...
it was useless since it was being cleaved by Haru in a single stroke.
*BOOOOOOOM!!!*
Haru appeared right in front of Cecilia and raised his scythe to cleave her into two.
Cecilia raised her hands unconsciously, but the sniper rifle on her hand was destroyed in one swing by Haru. She closed her eyes in fear when the scythe was about to reach her.
*Boom!*
Cecilia thought that it was her end, but she waited for her attack to hit her, but she only felt a pat on her head.
”Huh?”
”I'm sorry to make you scared, alright?”
Haru released on his hands and also part of armor on his hands.
”I - I - I'm not scared!” Cecilia's eyes were red at this moment, denying that she was scared since she was an IS Representative, but she was crying at this moment.
”Alright, alright, you're not crying. Let's go back. I'll treat you to something good.”
Cecilia wanted to refuse, but when she thought that she didn't have a weapon anymore.
”Sigh... I lost.”
”You're very strong, Cecilia.” Haru had to admit that if her opponent wasn't him then she might win the battle.
Cecilia had a complex feeling, but it was good being patted by Haru at this moment.
”Let's go to my room.”
Haru took Cecilia's hand to the dock since the duel was over.
”E - Eh - Eh?!” Cecilia forgot all the things which had just happened and thought about what this guy wanted to do once she had brought him to his room, but at the same time, she also had an anaticipation inside her heart.
Haru was the first male who had defeated her, and she also had a good image of him before.
'He's also very strong....'
Cecilia thought that it wouldn't be bad being eaten by him.
”.........”
Every audience in the arena, especially the girls, were very jealous of Cecilia at this moment.
Houki only shook her head looking at her new friend. She had a complex expression when she saw both of them go to the dock together and seemed to talk about something. She didn't know what they were talking about, but she didn't have a good feeling about it.
Only Ichika didn't know what had happened and thought about the match more since he knew that Haru was very strong and so strong that Cecilia didn't have a chance to fight back.
'Amazing...'
It was Ichika's thought at that moment, and he really wanted to own his own IS as soon as possible so he could compete with them on the arena.
