Chapter 336 The Girl Under the Bright Full Moon
Facing Seraphiel, Tilan was not as relaxed as she was before when facing Medi. This time, she was also concentrating and serious.
The light gray crystal cross sword was held in the palm of her hand. The blade was like an upright ice crystal, transparent and flawless, but it also emitted bursts of white smoke, which was icy.
Seeing Tilan's preparation, Seraphiel also clenched the sword in front of her. Soon, boiling white flames filled the air and turned into a series of spreading ripples of fire rings under her feet.
After that, a circle of light suddenly spread, and then snow-white burning wings spread out behind her. Seraphiel slowly rose up. Under her golden long hair, a golden flame mark began to appear between her white eyebrows. This meant that she was recognized by the angel sleeping in the depths of the Sea of Ekaka and could exercise some of its power on her behalf.
"Holy Flame Jessica"
Wrapped in the holy flame, the white and holy sword body, the sharp and flawless blade, holding the holy sword, Seraphiel chanted the ancient poem, which was the song of the angels who came to the world in the Third Age and led the world to fight against the chaotic phantoms that swept the world.
"When the shadow of sin rose on the ground, three lights shone down from the sky.
The light, like a living thing, made a sound.
The sound was like singing, and it was like praying. Then, 7,526 messengers with wings on their backs came to the world. "
Every time she recited a sentence, the flames on her body and the long sword in her hand surged a bit, until finally, it was as if the whole person was shrouded in blazing white flames, dazzling but impossible to look directly at. The brilliant heat burned the whole venue, making the audience outside the battlefield sweat.
Opening her pure and bright blue eyes, Seraphiel stared directly at the black-haired girl opposite her, as if an invisible flame was burning in her pupils. She had never held back from the beginning, because she knew the strength of the girl in front of her better than any other contestant, and it was definitely not as simple as it was currently showing.
Seeing the suffocating waves of fire spreading from Seraphiel's feet, blowing up Tilan's hair and skirt, although this was an unbearable high temperature in the eyes of outsiders, it was not the case for her.
The essence of high temperature is that molecules move at high speed and irregularly, and her talent is precisely crystallization and stillness, which can well protect her from such abilities.
With her hair flying, she slowly clenched the ice blade long sword in her hand and closed her eyes slightly.
The ordinary means of the withering sequence and the ability of the singing girl are not effective against the light feather sequence. In this case, let's use this set of swordsmanship.
"Bluebird's orthodox teachings: Flowing Wind Painting Shadow Sword Technique."
Holding the long sword in her hand, Tilan swung it gently, her movements were like dancing with a sword, extremely gorgeous, the black floral sleeves had a dark blue lining, and as she turned, her white wrists were exposed.
As she turned her body, her figure was vaguely misplaced, and as the girl's movements accelerated, this sense of misplacement became more and more obvious, until later people saw clearly that it was not misplacement, but that there were phantom afterimages behind the girl that were exactly the same as herself. The movements of these phantoms were always half a beat slower than the previous one, and the colors were getting lighter and lighter. The girl simply turned the blade, leaving a circle of sword light afterimages.
Although she didn't understand why the girl in front of her could move in the holy white flame without being affected, Seraphiel didn't want to guess and started to move.
The burning wings behind her flapped, and her body flew close to the ground. The cross blade wrapped in holy flames slashed down, but Tilan dodged it. However, this was not the end. A series of collisions and cracks came from the blade in Seraphiel's hand.
The phantoms that were also moving behind the girls were not empty things. They seemed to have entities at the moment of attack and slashed down one after another.
In the subsequent battle, the two of them were getting faster and faster, and the situation on the scene seemed to be Seraphiel fighting more than ten people at the same time. As long as Tilan turned and swung her sword, twelve long swords would slash down one after another. Her figure would open an arc around Seraphiel, and in an instant, twelve long swords would stab out at the same time.
Faced with such a weird sword technique, Seraphiel frowned, and the symbols in her eyes flashed. The holy flames of the sword in her hand surged, and she swept across fiercely, crushing and tearing the long swords in front of her, but Tilan took a step back and attacked again, and stabbed out several times again, making it difficult for Seraphiel to resist.
After fighting like this for several times, wounds began to appear on Seraphiel's body. Fortunately, these illusions were not her real self after all, and the wounds were not deep after breaking through her defense.
Seeing that it was not a long-term solution, Seraphiel turned and jumped up, and the burning wings carried her soaring straight up, breaking through the layers of atmosphere and coming to the night sky.
After temporarily getting rid of Tilan, Seraphiel closed her eyes and chanted again.
"So, those blessed people who followed the light also became messengers.
They held sharp swords, and the sharpness of their blades could kill the vicious snakes in their hearts, and the heat of their swords could burn the twisted shadows in the world."
As Seraphiel chanted, the holy flames burning in the holy sword in her hand became more boiling and dazzling, and the blade seemed to melt and twist and deform, turning into a curved snake shape, and the snake was also inscribed with countless holy spells and marks on its body.
Brandishing the snake-shaped holy sword, Seraphiel swooped down again and fought with Tilan who was looking up and flying.
The swords collided again, but this time the curse seal on the serpentine holy sword was particularly dazzling. Under its illumination, the phantoms behind Tilan all vanished into thin air.
After the two crossed each other, they separated. Tilan looked at the snake sword in Seraphiel's hand curiously.
"The Light Feather Sequence is really unique. Its ability to dispel and purify can restrain too many secret methods." She shook her head.
Since we can't take shortcuts, we can only compete with hard power, the girl thought silently in her heart.
Seraphiel swung her sword again, and the flaming sword arc slashed at Tilan, but the latter parried it with the ice crystal long sword. In an instant, the ice crystal long sword shattered and melted, and the girl was not surprised by this.
She took the opportunity to release the sword blade during the collision, retreated, and then coughed slightly to adjust her throat.
"Ah~" a slightly tender voice shouted, and then the voice line turned and became ethereal and far-reaching.
At some point, seven blue strings appeared in Tilan's hand. When she plucked the strings with her fingers, pale blue butterflies flew out from the strings and then disappeared into the night sky.
"The distant wind brought your call"
"The distant light brought your figure"
In the slightly brisk singing, the sound of the piano fell like water drops hitting the earth, and the evening breeze blew, sweeping away the clouds in the night sky.
"The only meaning of life is today"
"I will embark on the journey without regrets"
The girl closed her eyes slightly, played the piano with one hand, pressed her chest with the other hand, and sang softly.
Seraphiel stared, swung her sword straight up, trying to interrupt the girl's singing, but a blue sword-holding figure suddenly flashed in the air, her outline was the same as the girl, blocking Seraphiel's way forward.
The fiery sword slashed and shattered the phantom, but soon another blue sword-holding phantom flashed forward and blocked Seraphiel.
In this way, one after another, within a few seconds, Seraphiel killed more than a dozen sword-wielding figures who blocked her way, and continued to rush towards Tilan's position.
At this time, Tilan slowly opened her eyes, and it seemed that thousands of stars and sands were flowing in them. The song that transcended time flowed and conveyed from her soft voice. Behind her, the night sky had never been so clear, and every cloud was so clearly visible.
"As we slowly drift towards the horizon"
"As we let everything go as we want"
"Will you be willing to move forward with me?"
The strings in the girl's hand dissipated, and she stood quietly in the night sky, with her hands folded and resting lightly on her forehead, as if blocking something.
At this time, Seraphiel, holding the burning snake sword, passed through the layers of obstacles like a stream of light, and pierced Tilan's chest.
Finally, the folded palms separated, revealing the incomparably bright moonlight mark between the girl's eyebrows.
Time seemed to have been paused at this moment. The girl's palm slowly drew a perfect circle from top to bottom, and in the night sky behind her, a full moon that covered the entire sky of the venue slowly appeared.
In the silvery white moonlight, the two tiny figures in the moonlight were frozen here.
"I will eventually hunt for the dream I am pursuing"
"I will eventually strive to break through the nine layers of clouds"
The bright moonlight fell, dispelling the scorching heat in the earth and the entire venue, and the boiling white flames slowly extinguished, and a peaceful and tranquil world descended.
"I will eventually hold you in my arms"
"I will eventually sing praises to the great creation"
"I will eventually drown in the endless singing"
The girl's singing was still softly chanting in the moonlight, and the snake sword slowly pierced her chest in the suspended time sand until it penetrated out.
"I will eventually win your ambiguous gaze"
"The breeze brushed my ears again"
"I know that was your whisper"
A trace of blood spilled from the corner of her mouth. Tilan held Seraphiel's sword wrist and sang the last few lyrics. Perhaps she was shocked by such a scene, or perhaps she was moved by the song. Seraphiel was rarely absent-minded. Her wrist unconsciously loosened the hilt and stared at the girl under the moonlight.
The sword blade slowly turned into smoke and dissipated. The girl pressed the wound on her chest with one hand and gently wiped Seraphiel's cheek with the other hand, leaving a faint trace of blood. Then her finger lightly touched Seraphiel's brow, allowing the girl blessed by the angel to slowly close her eyes and enter a quiet dream.
The white wings behind her wrapped Seraphiel like feathers, slowly descending with her, and finally lying on the ground sprinkled with moonlight. Her breathing gradually became stable and she fell into a long dream and sleep.
After a long silence, the referee resisted the urge to disturb her and announced the end of the competition.
"Edes Academy wins." The
song Tilan sang was "Drifters", which can be found in the playlist. Drifters
