Chapter 126 - Chapter 127 {Lior vs. Jimmy}

Scene:The final battle of the Delhi Stadium tournament is underway between Lior and Jimmy.The audience watches closely—King Bit, Principals Rana and Milry, and Lior's family: Tall, Kin, Precious, and others.

Scene (Ring):Poison fills the air because of Jimmy's attack.

Jimmy (in his mind):"Now he won't be able to breathe…!"

Lior:"Jujutsu!"(This skill allows Lior to resist illusions, poison, and healing effects. One of Lior's most powerful abilities.)

Scene:All the effects of the poison on Lior vanish. Even the poison in the air disappears.

Jimmy:"W-What?!"

Scene:Lior moves at incredible speed.

Jimmy:"But this is a Honey Block!"

Scene:Lior suddenly appears on Jimmy's right and attacks with his sword. Jimmy blocks it.

Lior:"Oh!"

Jimmy:"Whatever. There's no way I'll be defeated by some underclassman."

Lior:"Don't underestimate me."

Scene:Lior crouches and kicks Jimmy's leg. Jimmy almost falls but regains balance and counterattacks.

Jimmy:"Blue Flame of the Sword God!"

Scene:Aura flows from Jimmy's body into his sword. Blue energy erupts and strikes Lior.Lior can't dodge or block it and takes the hit.

Lior:"An… damn!"

Scene:Lior falls to the ground and tries to stand, but the honey makes it difficult.Jimmy takes advantage and attacks again.

Scene:Jimmy rushes in with a normal sword strike. Lior dodges while lying on the ground.

Jimmy:"What?!"

Pretty:"Now Lior can't do anything… he's going to lose…"

Precious:"…"

Jimmy:"Just quit already!"

Lior:"Not now…"

Scene:Jimmy attacks again while Lior is down—but suddenly, Jimmy's sword breaks.From Lior's body, a new sword appears.It is not Gredrame. Gredrame lies on the ground.This new sword is from Lior's previous life, used in the Black Primordial War—its name is Ijaka.

Scene:As Ijaka appears, it splits Jimmy's sword in two.Lior gathers his strength and stands.

Jimmy:"W-What? Another sword?!"

Milry:"What the heck?!"

Rana:"Well, it's not cheating."

Milry:"I didn't say it was."

Tall:"Oh… that's Lior's sword, Ijaka."

Kin:"The last time we saw it was during the Black Primordial Battle."

Pretty:"Right…"

Lior (in his mind):"This sword was given to me by a summoned being in my previous life.He called me his king. I never knew why…But even so, I couldn't save him."

Scene:A voice echoes in Lior's mind—Precious.

Precious (in Lior's mind):"Hey… the one you couldn't save belonged to your last life.This time, you have more people—and more power.Forget the past and focus on this tournament."

Scene:Connection ends.

Lior:"Right." (smiles) "This time, I have many."

Scene:Images flash in Lior's mind—Tety, Bety, Tall, Kin, Guzy, Precious, Tain, Shai, Pretty, Pintu, Kuku…

Lior:"And many others.So let's end this fight here and now.In my last life, I couldn't save my wife.This time, in this world, I will protect everyone if the time comes."

Scene:Lior opens his eyes and extends his hand.

Lior:"Ijaka… Slash."

Scene:Ijaka floats in midair and turns toward Jimmy.

Jimmy (in his mind):"No way… Am I going to lose again?!"

Scene:Ijaka streaks forward at extreme speed, passes by Jimmy's head, and strikes the barrier.The entire stadium shakes violently.

Rana:"What the hell?!"

Bit:"Are you kidding me?!"

Scene:The stadium trembles.

Buchi (in his mind):"This is even stronger than when Precious broke the barrier…!"

Precious (in his mind):"You idiot… why did you use that much power?"

Lior:"By mistake… -_-!!"

Scene:Jimmy is defeated and teleported out of the ring.

Buchi:"The winner of the solo match is Lior from Doramai School!Therefore, the winners of both the tag team and solo tournaments are Doramai School!"

Scene:Everyone applauds.

Audience:"That kid's last attack was terrifying.""Yeah, like he's hiding his true power.""Who's stronger—Lior or his classmate Precious?""Maybe Precious, since he broke the barrier.""No, Lior shook the entire stadium.""I'm with Precious—he broke it without even touching.""Whatever, I'm with Lior."

Scene:Lior receives first prize, Jimmy second, and another student third.

Bit:"Lior, that last attack was very powerful.Did your teachers at Doramai teach you that, or did you learn it yourself?"

Lior (in his mind):"What should I say… maybe…"

Lior:"My teachers taught me, my king.Do you really think an 11-year-old like me could learn such powerful attacks on his own?"

Bit:"…R-Right…"

Bit (in his mind):"These two kids—Lior Fizz and Precious Fizz… 'Fizz'…"

Scene:R. Kizu whispers something to Bit. Bit becomes tense and leaves quickly.

Bit:"I must go. Something important has come up."

Rana:"Thank you, my king, for attending this tournament."

Bit:"Hmm." (nods) "I'm looking forward to seeing your school in the international tournament."

Rana:"Yes."

Scene (Outside the Stadium):Precious stands with Tall, Kin, Pretty, and Shai. Miliem and Damour are there too.Lior arrives.

Precious:"Lior!"

Scene:Hearing the voice, Lior turns, shocked, then runs over happily.

Lior:"Mom? Dad? When did you come? Did you watch my battle?"

Tall:"Yes. You were powerful, Lior."

Kin:"You've become even stronger than the last time I saw you."

Lior:"Hehehe… So it was just you two?"

Kin:"Well, we had some work here, so we couldn't bring Tety and Bety."

Tall:"And we're heading back now."

Precious:"So soon?"

Tall:"Yes. If we delay, it'll be night by the time we reach."

Precious:"I see. We have a house here in Agram City—you could've stayed with us."

Kin:"Next time, for sure. We might visit Agram City in a few months because of work."

Precious:"Yeah…"

Nimi:"Hey, Pretty."

Pretty:"?"

Nimi:"What work do those two do?"

Pretty:"Well, they're the third-richest family of Bees Village.Their job is to protect the village—not just Bees Village,but all the villages in that entire region."

Nimi:"I see…"
