Chapitre 644: -636- The pinnacle of power and technique
In the midst of the blaze at the Akabane residence, Akabane Tenzen admitted something with his own mouth.
"On the eight-tier ladder of magus, I am not as good as you."
This was something acknowledged by him two years ago.
"In a duel under equal conditions, considering only skills, I might truly be unable to defeat you."
So, even when Rozen acquired the ability of the 'Mind's Eye' and showcased a strength far surpassing his own, Magnus was not surprised in the slightest.
However, at that time, Akabane Tenzen had also said this.
"Without sufficient power, no matter how advanced the technique is, it can still be crushed."
For Rozen, who didn't even possess a single automaton at that time, and faced six excellent automatons personally crafted by Akabane Tenzen, with 'Summoning Arts' only at the level of summoning mid-level familiars, this was indeed a fact.
And at that time, there was a significant gap between Rozen and Akabane Tenzen.
That was the highest secret technique passed down through generations of the Akabane clan, a secret art born from the 'Crimson Wing Blood'————'Crimson Wing Formation.'
It could enhance magic power by burning one's blood, and not just a mere doubling, but a full tenfold increase. It could even compress magic power into ten threads, forming a powerful force, and could manipulate like ten automaton puppeteers simultaneously, allowing the Akabane family's proud 'Puppetry Technique' to unleash terrifying effects. This secret art could be considered outrageous.
For Rozen at that time, Akabane Tenzen, who mastered this secret art, was an unbeatable existence.
With that in mind, Akabane Tenzen heartlessly declared at that time.
"You can't win against me now."
And now, Magnus, who had abandoned the name Akabane Tenzen, once again wielded this secret art.
"W-What is that...!?"
"Such terrifying magic...!"
"Is that the magic a human can possess...!?"
"I've never heard of such a thing!"
Witnessing Magnus using the 'Crimson Wing Formation' secret art, eyes glowing red, back adorned with red wings, blood vaporizing and transforming into dreadful magic power, the students were all shocked and exclaimed.
Not to mention the ordinary students, even the prominent figures watching the battle from the shadows were showing astonished expressions.
"That is...!"
"The Akabane clan's...!"
The Crimson Wing...!"
Even Domon, Subaru, and Rokuren held their breath.
As for Charl and Kimberly, they had already lost their composure.
'"Impossible..."
Charl's lips trembled slightly.
"He still harbored such power?"
Sigmund was thoroughly stunned.
Even Kimberly was fixedly staring at Magnus, shrouded in a mist of blood, her eyes showing an unusually stern look.
In the past, within the Walpurgis Royal Academy of Machinart, Magnus had become the perennial top scorer, relying on his outstanding magic and skills.
However, that was before Magnus revealed the 'Crimson Wing Formation' secret art.
In other words, even without the power of the 'Crimson Wing Formation,' Magnus was already hailed as the person who broke the historical records of the academy.
Now, Magnus had revealed his true trump card, making everyone realize why his strength was as it was.
Unbeatable.
Unquestionable.
Unsubvertible.
Unsurpassable.
That was the impression Magnus gave at this moment.
Even Yaya, at this moment, had her entire body tense.
Back in the Akabane residence, Yaya had been thoroughly defeated under the circumstances of Akabane Tenzen using the 'Crimson Wing Formation.'
"Mitsubachi."
With crimson wings on his back, Magnus spoke.
"Is it ready?"
Magnus's voice made everyone pay attention.
Around him, the automaton named 'Mitsubachi' had her hands overflowing with extremely high-density magic at some point.
Those magical energies transformed into particles resembling scales, seemingly attracted, flowing towards three directions.
Those three directions were the collapsed ground, the distant woods, and Magnus's workshop.
Seeing this scene, before others could react, Rozen had already guessed.
"Could it be..."
Just like to confirm Rozen's guess, the automaton named 'Mitsubachi' lightly opened her red lips.
"It's ready, Master."
Like this, 'Mitsubachi' reported to Magnus.
Magnus nodded, then calmly gave the order.
"Come, Hotaru, Kamakiri, Kagerou."
With Magnus's call, the space in front of him fluctuated.
Hotaru, Kamakiri, and Kagerou appeared from within, landing in front of Magnus.
And without a single scratch.
The surrounding students erupted in astonishment.
Rozen affirmed his own speculation.
"That 'Mitsubachi' automaton's magic circuit is of the healing type."
Probably, Mitsubachi's magic was a type that could provide life force to others and heal injuries at the fastest speed.
"This is my fourth automaton. Congratulations on successfully making me use her."
Magnus spoke indifferently.
"However, it's time for this to end."
Saying this, Magnus extended his hand, allowing ten threads to extend from his fingers.
Compressed from immense to astonishing magic, these threads emitted an unusual heat and radiance, almost as if they could scorch one's eyes.
All ten threads connected to Hotaru.
"Boom!"
Around Hotaru, a scorching wind swept like a storm.
Magnus concentrated all the magic of the 'Crimson Wing Formation' onto Hotaru.
"Go, Hotaru."
Magnus didn't send out multiple automatons this time. He had Hotaru charge out alone, carrying the terrifying hot wind. She burned the ground to a crisp on one side while shooting out like a bullet on the other.
"Yaya."
Rozen calmly spoke, and Yaya, already prepared, immediately shattered the ground beneath her feet. As the energy surged, sounding like a cannonball, she faced Hotaru.
"Haa!"
"Ha!"
The Moon Maiden and the Fire Maiden each let out a cry, one forming a fist that could crush the air, the other unleashing a palm strike evaporating the atmosphere.
"Boom!"
With a deafening roar, the collision was like an explosion.
In an instant, the impact blossomed like an explosion.
In an instant, the scorching wind burst out like flames.
The two forces collided, centered on the fists and palms that touched, turning into a storm and an explosion, expanding outwards.
The two girls engaged in close combat like this.
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"
The thunderous roars resounded like firecrackers, causing the two girls to intertwine like phantoms, chasing each other, wielding their fists and feet as weapons with unparalleled strength, sending their attacks towards each other.
With each collision of the girls, the air around them would explode, even the ground under their feet would shatter, leaving pits scattered across the battlefield. It seemed like invisible artillery fire was continuously bombarding the area, an extraordinarily awe-inspiring sight.
On both sides, Rozen and Magnus pushed their techniques to the limit in this moment.
Rozen primarily utilized his 'Mind's Eye,' continuously adjusting Yaya's 'Kongouriki' magic, manipulating each unit to let Yaya unleash unmatched strength and defense.
Magnus, on the other hand, not only utilized 'Mind's Eye' but also fully unleashed the 'Crimson Wing Formation,' channeling ten times the magic into Hotaru.
In terms of technique, Rozen held an absolute advantage. Yaya, being the first-class automaton created by the top puppet craftsman in the world of automaton, surpassed Hotaru both in performance and magical effects.
In contrast, though Magnus' technical aspect fell short compared to Rozen, and Hotaru's performance was inferior to Yaya, these differences were completely compensated for by the 'Crimson Wing Formation,' allowing Hotaru to exhibit an astonishing combat capability not inferior to Yaya.
This was the ultimate collision of power and technique.
In response...
"Impressive!"
Magnus's voice rose.
"Facing the absolute power brought by the 'Crimson Wing Blood,' you can still resist with just technique...!?"
Undoubtedly, at this moment, Magnus was truly astonished.
"The truly astonishing thing is yet to come!"
Rozen coldly snorted, focusing his magic.
At this moment...
"Alright! Stop right there!"
A deep voice suddenly resounded.
