Bab 1367: -1349- She's already here
"Whoa..."
In the dormitory hall, everyone let out exclamations one after another.
What lay before them was a very spacious and luxurious hall, giving the impression of having arrived at some high-end venue.
Of course, it was thanks to the student council members' cleaning efforts that it looked so clean and pleasing to the eye.
There were even facilities for battles, fully equipped.
Stella, Ikki, Shizuku, and Arisuin Nagi, who had just arrived, were engrossed in exploring their surroundings, until they eventually gathered together.
As the student council president, Todo Touka spoke up.
"Well then, everyone, the training camp for the representatives of Hagun Academy starts today. Do you want to rest for a while, or start training right away?"
Todo Touka asked for everyone's opinion.
Although there was a desire to look around more, especially Stella who seemed eager to explore the forest, everyone unanimously made the same decision without hesitation.
"I'm not tired, so starting the training right away is fine."
The energetic princess declared.
"I have no problem with that, in fact, I prefer it."
Ikki was even more eager for the training than Stella.
"I'm not interested in sightseeing."
Shizuku maintained her usual style.
"Although it's a bit disappointing, since everyone wants to start right away, I'll do the same."
Arisuin Nagi said this, but didn't look disappointed at all.
"I have no problem either, president."
Totokubara Kanata joined in with a smile.
"I see."
Todo Touka nodded in understanding and made a decision.
"In that case, let's start the training now."
Saying this, Todo Touka looked in Rozen's direction.
"Arneet-kan, could you lead and organize us as the instructor?"
Todo Touka made such a request.
"Me?" Rozen raised an eyebrow and said, "I don't mind, but is it just me as the instructor?"
During the training camp, Hagun Academy usually invited more than one professional.
After all, each Blazer has their own abilities and roles, and no one can directly copy their path onto others. So, during training camps, Hagun Academy typically invites several professional players to provide guidance based on individual situations. This is a common practice not only at Hagun Academy but also at other academies.
But now, from Todo Touka's words, it seemed like only Rozen was there.
Sure enough...
"The chairman mentioned that apart from Arneet-kan, Hagun Academy has only invited one other instructor this time, and that person seems to be very special. Although not a professional KOK league member, the chairman stated that getting guidance from them would be more meaningful than any professional."
Todo Touka said this, looking puzzled and confused.
"However, that instructor hasn't arrived yet, so for now, it's just Arneet-kun."
Thus, Todo Touka asked Rozen to lead.
However, Todo Touka did not know...
"No, she's already here."
Rozen said this calmly.
"Already... here?"
At this, everyone, including Todo Touka, was stunned.
At that moment...
"——————!"
Everyone present turned pale, their faces instantly turning ashen.
Including Todo Touka.
Including Stella.
Also including Ikki.
"Thud...!" "Thud...!" "Thud...!"
With a series of muffled sounds, all the students from Hagun Academy fell to the ground one after another.
"What... what is this...!?"
"So... so scary...!"
"Ugh...!"
"....!"
One by one, the students fell to the ground, as if being crushed by an invisible gravity, trembling all over, drenched in sweat, and their faces extremely pale.
Only Ikki, Stella, and Todo Touka barely managed not to fall, but they too knelt on one knee, their bodies trembling, their eyes filled with fear and shock.
At this moment, the entire space was filled with an invisible, terrifying pressure.
No, it wasn't pressure.
It was sword aura.
Sword aura that transcended the norm.
The aura seemed to transform into a tangible oppressive force, filling the entire hall, making everyone feel as if a mountain was pressing down on their backs, unable to breathe.
"How could there be such terrifying sword aura...!?"
Todo Touka knelt on one knee, seemingly wanting to summon her Device, but her hands wouldn't obey, causing cold sweat to break out on her forehead.
"Ahh..."
Stella's whole body was heating up, seemingly stimulated by the dragon power within her, trying to break free from her body's restraints and burst forth, making her feel an unprecedented sense of crisis, her shock unparalleled.
As for Ikki, he was the only one who instinctively summoned his Device and released his own sword aura to counter the incoming sword aura.
Thus, Ikki struggled to stand up, his pupils trembling, sweat pouring from his pores, looking quite disheveled.
Among all present, only one person remained unaffected by the sudden terrifying sword energy.
"As expected..."
Rozen, still holding his luggage, felt the astonishing sword aura, not only not feeling uncomfortable but also somewhat nostalgic and exhilarated, smirking as he turned his head, looking in a certain direction.
There...
"You've finally arrived."
A voice as melodious as classical music sounded gently, reaching everyone's ears.
Everyone shuddered, struggling to lift their heads, looking forward.
Then, a slowly approaching figure entered everyone's view.
"It's you...!?"
Ikki's expression changed dramatically.
"Ah..."
Stella and Todo Touka widened their eyes.
"No way..."
The rest were rendered speechless.
The approaching figure had waist-length, straight white hair, walking confidently into their sight, entering the hall.
Who else could it be but Edelweiss?
"To think that under the sword aura I released on purpose, there are three people who haven't fallen, and one who can even stand. As I expected, you are all promising talents."
The world's strongest swordswoman, now dressed in a casual jacket and jeans instead of the friendly attire seen before in the restaurant, had transformed from a kind pastry chef to a heroic woman.
"Edel...san...?"
Ikki and the others were shaken.
Only Stella, while shaken, couldn't help but look in Rozen's direction.
Rozen stared straight ahead.
Just in time, meeting Edelweiss' gaze.
Two pairs of eyes collided, sparking an invisible clash.
As if announcing a formal reunion.
