章 1399: -1381- Take one hit from me
"————"
In this instant, the oppressive atmosphere in the arena seemed to gain gravity, becoming unbearably heavy.
The magical power surging from Rozen felt as tangible as gravity, making everyone's shoulders drop and the ground tremble slightly.
In terms of pure magical power quantity, Rozen was slightly weaker than Stella under normal circumstances.
However, Rozen could perfectly control his magical power, even drawing in ambient magic, making all the magic in the vicinity subject to his control. This resulted in his released magic shaking the entire area, bringing a terrifying sense of oppression.
Feeling this dreadful magic, everyone present showed expressions of shock.
Especially Wallenstein, who had cold sweat dripping from his forehead and was silently cursing his luck.
Impossible.
As one of the cadres of the Rebellion, Wallenstein was well aware of how terrifying this young man in front of him was.
During the time when the three major factions besieged Rozen, Wallenstein had to stay back to guard the headquarters and didn't participate.
But Wallenstein clearly saw that after the battle, the leader, who was far stronger than himself, returned with a face full of fear.
That expression was like he had seen something unbelievably horrifying, leaving a psychological scar, making the tyrant of the underworld, one of the three great beings known as the Tyrant, wake up in terror from his dreams countless times.
Wallenstein had heard the Tyrant say this more than once:
"Don't provoke that person... absolutely not..."
This statement was deeply engraved in Wallenstein's heart.
Wallenstein felt both shocked and incredulous that this overlord, who had reigned over the underworld since before World War II, was so terrified of one person.
Even though the Tyrant had faced Tenkai before, challenging the world's strongest Blazer, and despite losing, he never showed any fear. Instead, he was always planning revenge, which led to the three major factions besieging Tenkai later.
But after that battle, the Tyrant fell into this state, unable to recover, making people feel that he was almost done for.
Later, Wallenstein learned from those who had participated in that operation that facing the siege of the three major factions, the world's strongest Blazer seemed to have unlocked some seal, displaying an extremely terrifying power that even changed his appearance and personality.
People described Rozen at that time as a "monster."
Yes.
A monster.
There was no other way to describe it.
From that time, the three major factions all gave up targeting Tenkai, even withdrawing the wanted order and publicly declaring that they would no longer make a move against Tenkai.
To outsiders, this might seem like the three major factions were powerless against Tenkai, leading to this result. But as a cadre of the Rebellion, Wallenstein knew that the three major factions weren't powerless; they were genuinely scared.
Because of this, when Wallenstein saw Rozen using multiple abilities to fight Hiraga Reisen and even kill him, he recognized Rozen's identity and felt his scalp tingle, wanting to flee on the spot.
Unfortunately, Rozen had already noticed Wallenstein's presence.
"I see, you've already found out?"
When Wallenstein said this, walking out from the shadows, others saw his calm and composed demeanor, but no one knew how bitter Wallenstein felt at that moment.
So, it wasn't that Wallenstein wanted to come out and act tough; he knew very well that he had no other choice but to come out.
In other words, Wallenstein was just pretending to be calm, desperately thinking of a plan.
If someone touched Wallenstein's back, they would find that his back, hidden under his robes, was already soaked with sweat.
At this moment, feeling Rozen's terrifying magical power and the unbearably heavy pressure in the air, Wallenstein's whole body stiffened, and he silently cursed his misfortune.
(Why did I choose Hagun...!?)
Wallenstein regretted his decision.
For the plan, they had to attack one of the seven knight academies.
Considering that Hagun Academy's strongest forces, the World Clock and the Yaksha Princess, weren't there, Wallenstein decided to target Hagun Academy.
Who would have thought that Rozen was hiding in Hagun Academy? It was indeed poetic justice.
Of course, there was still room for salvage.
"We did not know you were here; otherwise, we would never have dared to offend."
Wallenstein lowered his head, as if swallowing his pride.
"Could you overlook this matter for the sake of our alliance with the Twin-Wings?"
Wallenstein finally chose to beg for mercy.
There was no other option.
"Though we have offended you before, the league has also done the same. The conflict between us and the league should be something you would prefer to see, wouldn't it?"
Wallenstein spoke in a low voice.
"So, please, overlook this matter."
This was probably the only way out for Wallenstein and his people.
Even though the Rebellion had once besieged Rozen, the Union was in the same position; all three major factions had offended Rozen. Surely, Rozen wouldn't want to support any side.
In that case, perhaps Rozen would pretend not to see this matter and, like Edelweiss, stand by.
Wallenstein could only hope for this.
And indeed, Wallenstein was not wrong.
"Indeed, I don't care about your internal conflicts. That's your business."
Rozen looked straight at Wallenstein, as if seeing through all his thoughts, and spoke with a half-smile.
"But, attacking me is one thing; you have also attacked Hagun Academy, the place where I stay. You've harmed the faculty and students, and though you used an illusion, there are probably some of my acquaintances among them. Don't you think I should hold you accountable?"
Hearing this, Wallenstein's face fell, and he sighed.
"Then, what do you want me to do?"
Wallenstein had already lowered himself to this extent.
Since that was the case...
"Take one hit from me."
Rozen spoke.
"Take one hit, and you can leave."
This was Rozen's condition.
