After the bet was confirmed, the battle between the two sides began.

The dog and Yuno retreated to a distance and did not join the battle. They just watched from afar the two people chasing each other as they ran up and down between the buildings.

"It seems that Nanoha is quite smart."

Looking at the battle on the screen, Fang Zheng made a casual comment. After all, on the surface, Nanoha's proposal would not cause any loss to Fate. If Fate won, she could get several Sacred Stone Seeds. However, even if Fate lost, she would at most just waste time talking to Nanoha, and Nanoha did not need her to hand over the Sacred Stone Seeds. For Fate, such a bet was obviously a hundred benefits and no harm. Whether she won or lost, she was not worried about losing the Sacred Stone Seeds she had collected.

"Is this really okay?"

However, Sakura, who was standing next to her, was obviously a little worried.

"If Nanoha loses..."

"It doesn't matter."

Fang Zheng waved his hand, obviously not caring.

"Those sacred stone seeds originally belonged to Nanoha. She can do whatever she wants with them."

"Why?"

Hearing this, the girls were all stunned, and then Chise asked with some confusion.

"But teacher, those are not Yuno-kun's..."

"That snow ferret just dug out these holy stone seeds. That's the relationship between it and these holy stone seeds."

Having said this, Fang Zheng curled his lips.

"You have all seen those tomb-robbing movies, right? Let me ask you, if in a movie, an American archaeologist excavates an ancient artifact from an ancient tomb in a rainforest, then does the ownership of the artifact belong to the American archaeologist or the local people?"

“Woo…”

Hearing Fang Zheng's question, the girls frowned and began to think, and then Zhishi was the first to answer.

“It should be local?”

"So what if the local civilization has died out?"

"this……"

Tomoyo and Sakura looked at each other, not knowing how to answer for a moment, while Xiaohei pouted.

"Then whoever gets it will own it."

"That's right. Things without an owner belong to those who are capable."

Fang Zheng snapped his fingers and looked at the screen in front of him again.

"Yuno dug out these sacred stone seeds, so what? The sacred stone seeds were not dug out from his family's ancestral tomb. Moreover, after the sacred stone seeds were dug out, Yuno did not keep them properly, but let them fall to the earth. He also had no ability to collect these sacred stone seeds again, so he found Nanoha... This is completely different from your situation, Sakura."

As he spoke, Fang Zheng seemed to have guessed something and glanced at Xiaoying.

"Although you lost the Clow Cards just like Yuno, the Clow Cards were originally in your house, and the Guardian Beasts and Sealing Keys of the Clow Cards have already acknowledged you as the legitimate owner of the Clow Cards, so it is only natural for you to collect the Clow Cards. Therefore, the Clow Cards are not ownerless objects like the Sacred Stone Seeds, so don't let them lead you into trouble."

“Ah… Yeah.”

Hearing Fang Zheng's words, Xiaoying was stunned for a moment, then nodded quickly.

"I understand, teacher!"

At this moment on the screen, the battle between Nanoha and Fate has entered a white-hot state.

“Swoosh!!”

Fate shuttled between the buildings like a golden bolt of lightning, with Nanoha following closely behind. Then she raised the Heart of the Rising Sun in her hand and swung it forward.

"shooting!"

As Nanoha screamed, several pink magic bullets shot out instantly, whizzing towards Fate in front of her. Fate quickly changed direction at a 90-degree angle, flew straight into the sky, and shook off the magic bullet attack from behind. Then he did a backflip and flew over Nanoha's head, biting Nanoha tightly in return.

not good!

Realizing that she had lost her attacking position, Nanoha quickly turned around and raised the Heart of the Rising Sun in her hand. At the same time, Fate was already waving the Thunder Axe and rushing towards the target in front of her.

However, to Fate's surprise, this time Nanoha did not choose to distance herself from him as she did before. Instead, Fate saw Nanoha raising the Heart of the Rising Sun in her hand and pointing it at her.

then……

【Sprint Mode】

"boom--!!"

As the magic circle appeared behind Nanoha, Fate saw the girl rushing towards her like an arrow from a bow. This immediately surprised Fate, because she had fought with Nanoha before and knew that the girl was not good at close combat. Therefore, Fate had never expected that the other party would take the initiative to get close!

The outcome of the battle was decided in an instant. Due to her previous misjudgment, Fate had no way to stop at this moment. She could only hold the Thunder Axe tightly in her hand. Soon, a golden circular magic circle appeared in front of Fate, forming a shield.

The next moment, Nanoha held her Heart of the Rising Sun and crashed into the magic shield in front of Fate like a warrior holding a spear.

“Ooooo…!”

At this time, Fate had no other choice but to continue maintaining the shield and wait for Nanoha's attack to end.

However, at this moment, Fate saw Nanoha suddenly grasp the handle next to the Heart of the Rising Sun. At the same time, a shining pink ball of light appeared at the top of the Heart of the Rising Sun!

Oh no! This is... a zero-range bombardment!

“God of Heaven is shattered!!”

Along with Nanoha's shout, the next moment the magic beam in front of the Heart of the Rising Sun suddenly exploded and hit Fate's shield directly.

“Crack…Crack…”

Although Fate was much better than Nanoha in the use of magic power, the magic shield she hastily summoned was not able to completely withstand the double combo of "Sprint" and "Zero-Range Bombardment", and soon, cracks appeared on the magic shield in front of Fate, while Fate tightly grasped the Thunder Axe, and then her eyes lit up.

"Lightning Leap!"

"Bang!!"

It happened in a flash. Almost at the same time when Fate's magic shield was broken by the God's Repo, the blonde girl disappeared from the spot as if she had teleported. Nanoha's artillery fire also hit nothing, whizzing through the street and disappearing into the sky in the distance.

“Haaaah…haaah…”

Reappearing in the sky not far in front of Nanoha, Fate was somewhat embarrassed at the moment. To be honest, she had never expected that the other party would choose to conduct a close-range bombardment... But...

Thinking of this, Fate clenched the Thunder Axe in his hand.

I haven't lost yet!

"Heart of the Rising Sun!"

At this moment, Nanoha once again raised the Heart of the Rising Sun in her hand and aimed it at Fate. Soon, the magic circle appeared behind Nanoha again. Seeing this, Fate frowned.

Want to try again? No use!

"Arc Blade!!"

Seeing that Nanoha was about to use the sprint + bombardment combo again, Fate suddenly swung the Thunder Axe in her hand, and a ball of spinning light blades blasted towards Nanoha. At the same time, she quickly turned and retreated, trying to distance herself from Nanoha.

However, Fate, who turned around, did not see that Nanoha behind her did not sprint again like before. On the contrary, as Fate turned around, Nanoha quickly canceled the sprint circle, then suddenly jumped high into the sky, and then Nanoha held up the Heart of the Rising Sun high.

At the same time, a shining pink light began to emanate from her body.

"This is!?"

Sensing the surging magical aura behind her, Fate quickly turned her head to look, then her eyes widened in surprise.

I saw a star shining with pink light hanging in the distant sky.

At the same time, a huge magic circle slowly unfolded.

"Is this... a large-scale bombardment? Not good!"

At this moment, Fate finally understood what Nanoha wanted to do. She was not going to use the same trick on herself again. She wanted to distance herself and then launch a large-scale bombardment!

It's impossible to rush over to stop it now, the only thing I can do is to move away immediately -!

Thinking of this, Fate hurriedly turned around and tried to rush out of the shelling range.

However, at this moment, the magic circle in front of Nanoha has condensed into a huge ball of light. At the same time, she clenched the Heart of the Rising Sun in her hand and swung it forward.

"Starlight...breaker!!"

Then, a pink wave of magic roared and erupted, completely enveloping Fate and most of the city block.

"hiss……"

Seeing this scene, Xiaoying couldn't help but gasp. She clenched the seal key in her hand and turned to look at Fang Zheng tremblingly.

"Teacher... I really can't learn this..."
