Reingard is a Kingdom Where all races are legal to lived alongside human but not demon. They live as a unity but however humans power are strong to rule over Reingard as all who live in this kingdom must obey the law. King Alvis the Great III are the one who ruled over the empire for the time being. His majesty's generations had ruled over 187 years ago. The economy are quite going well and people live harmony with beasts,elves,orge,wolfman,golem,witches,wizards,priests and so on. Eeventhough they live together , there are no guarantee that they lives a peaceful life .Even social problem and many cases happening are considered as normal life for the citizen such as robbery,theft,killing,raping,gansterism,vandalism and so on. But no worry, that's a Hero jobs to perish all the evil deeds in this kingdom. Talking about Hero, actually there is a school which is famous,biggest,and most likely a place where all the brave hero was born. It was Hero Academy Center (H.A.C) which is at the east of Reingard Army based at 45 °. Basically, only those who are higher or rich family or have talent of combat strenght or anything ≥3≤ can join the school. The academy really provide a talented ,strong,faster,brilliant warrior. Even the teacher are all amongst the greatest Hero of all.

And here I am ~_~ only an ordinary 15 years old girl with blonde hair,quite skinny,a B cup size or maybe cheerful girl >_< raised by a demon of all demon °Д°. Damn this is too much for me. My name is Astaria Lylia,people often call me Lylia. So just for your information, i don't have both parents. I don't even know what's a mother like. I was told a rumor that she died to protect the people from being killed by demon. She really lost her life protecting the people behind her and not let the demon touched a single hair of the citizen. They said she died cruelly. But I never really know what's really happen back then since I still was a baby. Just a rumour okay. Anyways, here he is the one who raised me as a Hero even though he's a demon lol^o^ He was called Lucifer Freinrer. Rumor said that he lives more than a thousand years￣へ￣that's really crazy. I didn't even know his age eventhough I lived with him.≥﹏≤. As long as I remember, I was the only one can called him Luc-chan^ω^ what a cute name huh. He really mad when I call him that way^o^. Everyone will scared just by hearing his first name-_-#. Does he really that feared by anyone?, he sure had nice and cute side you know.

Luc-chan always tell me to train harder,study more,move forward and never give up. Sometimes Luc-chan are undenieable harsh to me but I know he's doing the best he can so he could raised me. But sometimes, I wondered why and how did Luc-chan found and raised me￣へ￣. Luc-chan sent me to the Hero Academy Center (H.A.C) when I reach my age at 7 years. That's when i first learn to studies all the things about this countries cultural and many more. I could say that the first time I entered the school ,no one ever wanted to talk to me at first because they know about Luc-chan￣へ￣. They really scared of him. I heard rumours said he was worst than the hell itself≥﹏≤. However I successfully get to know a really nice friend . She's also my classmate. Her name is Aurora Raphtalia or her nickname Raph-chan. She's the youngest in her family. She is the only friend I made up until now.

And here we are in the library. She's just beside me. Raph-chan is a pretty,smooth and gentle, her white hair straight down to the center of her body, pretty blue eyes she had and she's also very intelligent. I wanted to be like her^o^. Raph-chan and I always do our revision in library after school. The library had so much book like the sand at the beach it's countless. You might think it's a heaven of book. Raph-chan are much better at mathematical subject and I always ask for her for help.

We are on a wide glass table and getting ready to go home.

" Raph-chan^ω^I think we should stop here. Thanks for your teaching lessons today hhahhah^o^lets walk home together. "

" You're right Lia-chan, furthermore tomorrow we got a physical combat test〒_〒 we should get home and have enough rest. "

" ahhh(╥﹏╥)I almost forgot about it. Hmmm alright looks like I couldn't even sleep well tonight. "

" Ehh?you're practicing with your Maou-sama(Luc-chan)again? It seems like it's a part of your routine now^o^isn't it? "

" I don't know if that was a compliment￣へ￣. Luc-chan wanted me to be a real Hero. How the hell I could reach like the top warrior, I'm tiny, not smart, and always clumsy you know that.￣へ￣

" Seeing you mad at him like this sometimes is fun (⌒o⌒)ahhaah, that's a great thing you know. At least you have someone special awaiting you everyday you walk home. I really believe someday you'll be real hero in the future too^_^. So keep it up. "

" Whatever you say Raph-chan. Let's go home already or else we got made by the library warden there if we late again ←_←. "

We laughed together .

Then Raph-chan and I walked home. Look at the orange sky, such a wonderful view isn't it. But it was all spoiled by this annoying guy . From far away, standing a man with a fierce face waiting for my arrival. He is tall,look like 25 year old but actually he's too old, sharp eye, black long hair, whitier skin and wearing a black dark suit. That's suits him perfectly like a demon ahhahah. Nevertheless, it's Luc-chan(Lucifer Freinrer) (￣.￣). Luc-chan always wait for me in front of the door house. He's trying to make sure that no one followed me to our home(now i feel like I'm a little child who needs parental guidance) (￣.￣) .

" Oiii STUPID LYLIA!!! Don't walk like a fatty player who wants to die . You better move faster or else you won't have any dinner tonight!!!. "

" I am not that stupid you PERVERT DUMBEST DEMON EVER!!! I'm 15 already , you don't have to shout at me I'm already in front of you anyway!!! " ￣へ￣.

" Go take a bath before we eat dinner now. "

" Bla bla blaa I know that, you don't have to tell me to do so. I said I'm already 15 ,I know what to do. "

I walk even faster and enter the door quickly . Then I take a shower. Luc-chan went to the kitchen as I went to the shower room. He is preparing our dinner since only both of us lives here. By the way, our home was located far from the school and it was really hidden in the Larac forest which was said that there is a phantom eating soul for those who asked for death, but it's actually didn't exist because the rumors was created to scared human, so they can't enter the jungle. While showering,I wonder what's our dinner tonight. Then Luc-chan suddenly open the the sliding door while i was in the showering my body. I was silently shocked but my body didn't give any response. He glanced at me innocently for a while and said:

" How many times do I have to tell you to put your fishy smell school uniform outside the shower room door?!!!. It makes me easier to wash this if you put them outside. "

--------------*silent moments(I was stunned standing and showering my body while my eyes stares at Luc-chan collect my school uniform that I throw on floor.Then he holds high his head looking at me as he wanted to tell something important.)

" Ah, I almost forgot that your pinky bear underwear was blown by a strong wind in the morning, so I get a new one that has the similar pattern like yours . They are on your desk. You can thank me later " He just said it without any humiliation≥﹏≤!

My face begin to blush because he was innocently looked at me and tell me those things. I shouteddd strongly!!!!

" Get out of here you STUPIDEST PERVERT OLD DEMON !!!!!!!!!!! "

I just explode from my embarrassment . And i angrily take the shower. This is really embarrassing. I swear that from this moment I'll beat him if he's trying to do something embarrassing like this.≥﹏≤

After that, we're having dinner together. Luc-chan call for me to the dinner room and eat. Luc-chan always cook delicious, malicious,and voilà foods . Based on my opinion, he could even beat those master chef in the world. His food always make my stomach full of energizing impact.

" Because Luc-chan's cooking never disappoint me(≧∇≦). So ,I forgive what for you've done earlier .^.^ "

" I've never done something wrong you troublesome little Lylia. Quickly finish the dinner and continue your training. I heard that you're going to have your 2nd physical combat test don't you?. So, don't waste any second. I'm going to teach you how to kill a Hero today. "

" Ehh? Kill a hero? How's that supposed to be mean? Don't say it was a way to kill a heroooo°Д° "

" What?! Stop imagine bad things . I was about to teach you how a demon faced the skilled hero~_~. I know what's on your mind, you think you never had a chance to beat them huh?. You're actually strong as long as you're not beating them. "

" What do you mean by 'as long as you're not beating them' ? Can I really beat them by not beating them? "

" Humans really sucks(￣へ￣), you don't have to beat someone to win the worthless fight. As long as you're not falling down , that's what make you stronger than them. "

I just wonder what's Luc-chan's word means. And I quickly finished my dinner and change my outfit to get ready for the practice.Luc-chan was using the branch to teach me how to use a sword.

" Listen Lylia, here is the part where the weak can be strong and the strong can be weak. Watch their steps, learn their movements, avoid their attacks, move faster than the opponent and retreat faster than the opponent. If the opponent are charging at you ...."

Luc-chan suddenly disappeared in front of me and the branch swinging hit my back neck. It hurts my back neck somehow. The atmosphere change to be silence in a moment. That move looks like silent instant killer move and very dangerous.

" Heiii, it's hurting me Luc-chan. Auchhh look what you've done to my neck. "

" That's when you use your trump card Lylia. Teleport & Finishing blow. "

" For real?!!!? "

This is a bit shocked. Luc-chan really teach me a real combat this time. I couldn't describe how it feels like. His face really serious about teaching me those movements. It was a long time ago,Luc-chan never teach me about fighting for real. All he ever taught is avoid as long as I can and attack when chances come. That's why I only expert in teleporting a short area and hit a finishing blow. Both of these skills required a little amount of mana.

" Seems that your only skill. In teleporting short range and charged your opponent. I've just mix it into a combo. It should be okay for you. I would like to named that dangerous skill ....Death Back Step !!! "

" Wowww that's sound like an awesomee move!!!!!≧∇≦ , like the assassin's movement,but I think I'm going to change that weird name" ￣へ￣

" Huh, anyway what you're learning today is all for REAL ....I want you to read my movement in our battle. It'll going to be hard. I'll give you some advantages.... so I'll use only left-handed and I'm not using my magic. But the intense had the same aura of killing a hero. So, let's get started if you don't have any question. "

" I understand. Sir, yes sir "

Soon as Luc-chan was the one who make the 1st move, I was stunned and couldn't move or breath. He said something about the aura of killing a hero was real. I could feel his dark aura even we are far away and didn't even move. So this is the real battle huh. Finally, I could experience some of your serious mode Luc-chan. Then I take a deep breath and stand fit, I give my all to attack Luc-chan. That's when the real training begin.

I repeatedly attack and attack Luc-chan but Luc-chan always avoid. He avoids at the same time he could attack me. Actually he already slap my face 34 times in just 15 minute of our training. He's really ridiculous, how could I catch up his movement. His too fast even the Nanaryu rank also hasn't learned these. Ahhh talking about rank this is how our Heroes Academy Center system are. Student has their own level and rank in any types of heroes. There are type of heroes such as support, mages, tankers, assassins,fighters and paladin. Not even that they can also have a mixed type or semi type of any role. However, rank is on top of everything. Role doesn't matter but the ranks. There are 6 rank by the way. The lowest rank is rank Yiryu ,rank Sanryu, rank Goryu , rank Nanaryu, rank Eiryu and the highest is Kamiryu. Know what?￣へ￣ I am just a Goryu rank. Those who beat the opponent above them will get the rank same as the opponent. While the opponent will only lose some points and not getting demoted. All student are given 100 points for starter and when they won a duel or any matches their point will increase. I am Goryu rank my point was at 561p. I must protect my point and never lose to someone. That's also the reason Luc-chan always warned me to not accept or challenge any duel in order to keep the points. And I am not dueled as long as it is not for the exam(~_^). So, that's a little story about how was the H.A.C system schools are. But don't mistake for this , we also learn the subjects in class like normal people do. We are illegal to attack others if the opponent didn't accept or challenge a duel.

As I attack using wooden sword on Luc-chan, I suddenly remember about Raph-chan said about "At least you have someone special awaiting you everyday you walk home",hmmm I've too much of wondering who was Luc-chan special person, am I special to him?or what?. While I keep swinging my wooden sword with an empty mind he suddenly disappear again and my body seems to react on its own. I force to swing my back and turn around to avoid the blind spotted sudden attack from Luc-chan. That moment Luc-chan seems to be surprised by the way of my body reacted to him then he jumped far away from me.

" Interesting Lylia^.^, now you've warmed up your body. Did you understand the situation just now? "

" Ehh? What is it? "

I was thinking what happened and begin to understand. I opened my eyes widely then...

" Luc-chan, attack me this time for real!!!. "

" Well, whether you understand or not, here's the spell I said to you again... "

While he attack me left handed with a stick, he said those spell that until I won't forget the spell's word. Actually it was a strategy^.^

" Watch your opponents steps, learn the movements, catchup the speed, attack faster than your opponent and retreat even faster than your opponent....."

He repeatedly tells me that words in whole my training session with him. Until midnight, I was so tired -_-+and all I could remember is when I use my trump card . I really teleport to Luc-chan's behind but v_v I miss my finishing blow onto a vase at the wide garden behind the house where we practice. Now, I'm on my bed,couldn't do anything even to raise up a muscle. I fell asleep nicely that night. Luc-chan always had something to do in the main room,so sometimes he read the newspaper or cleaning the houses and wash my cloth ahhahahahahha. ^o^. Up until now I think my classmate are also practicing for the physical exam tomorrow. Same goes to Raph-chan, she's not just smarter in academics, but she is also stronger you know. Hope Raph-chan and I together as a team that beat them all with our strength. Hope all of us could get a good result and be a brave Hero in the future to save the world.

...to be continued.

#this is the story about A Legendary hero raised by a Demon of all demon. What will happen to Lylia and Raphtalia in the exam for tommorrow ^o^ i wanted to know moreeee.... So don't forget to tell your friends about this lightnovel. ^ω^See you guys in the next chapter.

The sun rays are getting rising, nature looks calm and here is the part that I particularly dislike about. The day has been in the morning. Like usual Luc-chan will wake me up. I didn't know how did I end up nakedly in the bed and sleep peacefully yesterday.

“Good morning little Lylia, you better wake up or you won't have breakfast this morning.”

“Ehh? It's morning already?” -_-|| I couldn't speak louder in the morning because I still sleepy.

“ Anyways, Lylia I have strip away your wet and smelly shirt just now. Go take a bath or you'll smell like the fish.”(￣.￣)

“HUH!!!!!!! How the f*ck did you just do to me while I was sleeping!!!!!” I was so mad at him!

“And errrmm, as a result of our practicing yesterday, your chest is growing up for time being. So please keep train to the fullest to your heart” He just said it out without even feels a bit of embarrassment.

“HENTAIIIII!!!!!GET OUT OF MY ROOM YOU BASTARD!!!! I shout angrily!

Then Luc-chan go out without hesitation like he doesn't care about my feeling as he thinks that is a normal thing. This is why you're always being alone. Demon are terrified things urgggghhh. And I go to the shower room. Cleaning myself then does some makeup before breakfast. Luc-chan already wait at the table for breakfast. With my mad mood I dare go to the table and eat. However, Luc-chan's food never disappoint me and I always forgive him for what he does. I don't know if he uses any spell on his food or is this the only things that Luc-chan good at? Well eating and finished the foods made by Luc-chan himself are first priority as a female hero. While I was chewing the food happily, Luc-chan said something.

“ On your exam today, please be careful and come back safely.”

Those words came from Luc-chan mouth. (*'∇｀*). This is the first time I ever heard such a caring words from him in my life. I feel like I wanted to cry out of joyfulness(*'∇｀*). Those words are really entered to my mind and heart. He said it like he wished me a good luck. Without showing my joyful tears, I continue showing him a great smile while eating his food. Thank you very much Luc-chan I will do my best. After the dramatic scenes over I carried out my bag and put on my shoes. Luc-chan is opening the door for me.

“ I'm going to school now Luc-chan!!! See you when I got home from school. Make sure you cook a special menu today because I'm going to win this match.” I said it's sincere since the heart and smile happily.

Luc-chan smiled to me. I never really remembered how he smiled before but today was a special day that I won't forget how he smiled. My heart beating faster and I think this feeling is something else. I was happy and nervous.

" I'll wait for you here. And one more thing Lylia.”

“ What is it?” ⊙_⊙ I ask him

“ The mana.....you can use the mana starting today.” He replied.

“ For real? Alright I'll use it when the time has come.”^_^

He told me I can use the mana that I was given. It's been a long time I never used it.

Actually, I have a weak body which can't produce mana in a short time. Furthermore, I'll die without mana. Because my body are too weak when I was a kid. So Luc-chan entered his mana into my body, so I can live. And believe it or not, he never gave me permission to use his mana in a battle because it was uncontrollable, I know this because I once used it and ended up almost killing someone by using it. From that experience he never gave me permission to used it up until now. But I want to use my real mana that I produce this long time. I'll only use his mana when it was urgent.

I started my trip to the school like usual. Luc-chan probably cleaning the house or watering the flowers at the back of the garden every day. Like he had a place to go anyway hehehe. As soon as I got to school, I directly walk into the examination room where all of my classmate are told to gathered there. I was looking for my friend Raph-chan but I meet this troublesome haters in front of the physical test registration desk area. It was Seren Knightwalker, a royal knight daughter and her gangs. There are paladin types. They quite have a guts here you know. Their ranks are higher than mine. I could say that it was hard for me to battle with her. Anyway I'd rather not to make any worthless duel.(¬_¬)

“ Oh my Oh my, looked what do we have here? A weakling? or a demon's daughter? Wuahhahaahahh whuaahahah hahaha.” She laughed maniacly with her gang.

“ You think I'll get into your trap if you're doing that you maniac badass queen?” I act like how Luc-chan do to me every day. And it seems like it works to trigger the maniac queen. I mean Seren.＜（－︿－）＞

“ What did you just say you demon?” She is furious to what I said earlier. I think she is a short-tempered person too I could say that.

“Oh my oh my, didn't expect maniac badass queen had a hearing problem recently until she asked me to repeat what I said just now hihihiihi” I said this to play with her emotion.

She can never beat Luc-chan's worst attitude over me if she can't even handle this huhu.

So, I'm toying with her because she really pissed me off. If you want to insult me, I'm okay but don't you dare to insult Luc-chan. You never know who he is. The short-tempered Seren almost use her power to hit me, but she was stopped by her friends around her. And Raph-chan come out from nowhere.

"Not again Lia, you should change your behavior. Or you'll never be a good warrior.”Raph-chan said.

“ Don't worry, I was just kidding with her anyways.” I tried to consume her.(╯3╰)

“ I can't believe it if it was from your mouth.”

“ Anyways, where did you came from? I didn't see you anywhere just now”

“ I was registering my attendance on the registration centre just now. You haven't register yet Lia ?"

“No I haven't. But I'm going now.” I'm about to register my attendance on the registration center.

“ Lia, what type of role will you register this year?” Raph-chan asked me out of wonder.

“I haven't thought about it yet. I always register to be a fighter since I am always carrying my sword. But this year, I think I didn't want to be fighter role anymore. I want something more than that.” I answered Raph-chan instead.╮(╯▽╰)╭

“ Seems like a surprise! What could it be Lia?” Raph wanted know more.°Д°

“ I want to register as a....PALADDIN!”◐.̃◐

Everyone who listen to what I was saying just now stared at me with silent. And that's a moment of silent. Even Seren stared at me with a shocked surprise face, they then laugh hardly. The room sounded like a funny stuff happen here. I seriously look at them. Seren talk to me.

“ A demon could never be hero, what else becomes a paladin? Huh? Hahahahahha stop making fun of paladin role. You're not even suit with it. Don't be a burden you bastard.”

“ Are there any wrong with it if I choose to be paladin? Are there any impact on you if I choose to be paladin?” I said it with a serious look in my eyes.

They silence again and started to ignore me and do something else. I then registered my attendance. There was 15 minute before the exam started, so teacher Mica(the teacher who'll be handling us, an adult female teacher in her 33 years old wore a glass and red lips) and gathered us all in a corner to briefing us. So we were divided into a group of three. And each group will represent their strength in the battle. The battle will only end if the opponent surrender or three of the members cannot stand anymore. Here's the bad news. We're already being chosen to group with according to the name list. We can't team up with anybody freely anymore. This decision has been made by the principal. It seems like the principal had planned this from start.

“ Raph-chan I think we can't team up anymore.”(｡ŏ_ŏ)

“I never imagine that I would have to separate with you. This is so bad”(｡ŏ_ŏ)

“ Well that's a shame that the team has been decided. So, we should follow and do our best for the exam.”

“ YES!” Raph-chan said it with high spirit.

According to the list, I was team up with .......

“WHAT THE HELL!!!!” Σ( ° △ °|||)

I was teaming up with the weakest ? A supporter and a mage? Oh now this is bad, I'll lose the battle. Furthermore, our group will have a match with the bastard maniac queen, and the top five assassins in Goryu rank,it's Yujima Hanzo and my bestie...Raph-chan. Dammmnnnnn !!!! How could this happened. It's unfair. I looked at Raph-chan and she showed a gloomy face. I didn't expect I will have a match with them with these two person I didn't even know their names or what are they looked like.

“ You must be Astaria Lylia a Paladin role right? Nice to meet you I am Layla William a supporter, and I am an elf." A soft sound person greet me and raise her hand to shake-hand with me. I was stunned and shocked but I shake her hand instead. Her aura of gentleness are glowing up like an angel from heaven. A sharp ear with pretty face, she is an elf.

“ Yes I am. Nice to meet you too Layla-san right?”

“ Ahh, just call me Layla since I see you as my friend”

“ Ffffffriend? For real? Doesn't people dislike for who I am”

“Yes we are now officially a friend from now on Lylia. I don't really thinks you as a demon. Your appearance are just like the rest,it's normal.”

“ Thanks Layla I appreciate it. Anyways it's rare to see an elf's role as a supporter, doesn't they always choose to be a marksmen type”

“Well, actually I am skilled in not just healing the wound, but I am also mastered to increase my partners physical movement and rising up their mana. So rather than being a marksman, I instead choose to be a supporter.” She said it proudly.^o^

“ That's a good idea, hope we will have a good combinations out there”

“ yes”^_^

Someone's behind me and try to reach me but I realize it soon and turning my back. In front of me must be the wizard. He looked like a cute girl but actually he is a guy. He was shorter than me, Yellow hair, wearing a blue hoodie, cute blue eyes, cute outfit, and he sounded like totally a girl's voices. He really is a shy person. And I ask...

“ You must be the wizard?”(｡ŏ_ŏ) I ask gently

“ Y.. Yes" He nodded while answering.

“ Don't be shy, my name is Astaria Lylia. You can call me Lylia Or Lia-chan because now we're friend” I talk to him, so he could over calm his shyness.

“ My name is ...Benedict..Reus. I'm looking forward for your teamwork in the battle.”

“Yeah, Looking forward to this too Reus-kun!.”^o^

We all laughed happily and get to know each other before the exam started. I think I should not underestimate their ability from their look. We got closed in just a few moments but feels lie we know each other for a long time. I am happy that I teamed up with these two. Even though everyone disliked me by my identity, but they're different. Then the exam just started and all of my classmate cheer for the first group that will be the first one to battled. Everyone's busy watching the battle while I'm busy making a strategy with my fellows. We gathered and give and suggest any idea to counter our opponent. As we discuss and think of it, my throat are getting thirst and I excuse myself to get some water. While I grab a bottle and filled the water in to my bottle. Suddenly something hit in my minds. I quickly tell my group and planned a strategy. Even though this is to risk. We have to do so or do nothing.

When the time come, our group are being call to get ready on the battle field. While on our way to the battle field we met up with the maniac queen. She laughed like she has won this match. But we ignore them and focus on what we had. Our status displayed on top of us before we begin to battle and teacher Mica are giving us a minute to do the last preparation before battling. Reus-kun readily stand his pose like a female mage, his cute, but I was nervous that he was actually too (nervous) than me〒_〒. While beside my right, Layla looked calm while observing our opponent. I tell them over and over to stick together with the planned we've discussed earlier.

“Listen Layla and Reus-kun!!! No matter what happen....always stick to the plan.!”￣へ￣

“YES!!!” Both of them replied bravely.

“Don't get nervous, the real battle are just about to begin.”

Half a minute left, I told Layla and Reus-kun to check the opponent's status and do not afraid of their status. I just told them to check on their status, so they know something about the opponent even though their level are higher than us. The biggest obstacle we had to face was their assassin, Yujima Hanzo. He held a title as a 'Silent Rage Killer' by his fighting skill was as silent as the sky. His skill could beat someone in a close range and I really have to protect these two of my friends since they are long range type.

“ Lylia-san, shouldn't we have to consider Seren-san status again?” Reus feared with the number of Seren's status. While besides me, Layla shows a stressful face, didn't she also afraid of them?

“ Reus,Layla. What did I say just now? I told that both of you to be aware of their status not to be afraid right?...don't be afraid! As long as I still stand, I'll defeat them in my way even if the two of you couldn't”

“I'll do my best!” said Reus

“me too!” said Layla

“I'll protect both of you, worry not you guys” we agreed to stick to the planned

On the other side, seems like maniac queen, the assassin and Raph-chan are ready for the battle. Huh, never see this kind of expression that Raph-chan made. She is actually serious about the match. I think they had already work together for the match. I should also fight Raph-chan seriously to her feelings and not let her down. Looking forward to these Raph-chan, Let's do our best in this match. I also wanted to see how much did she improve since she was taking a lot of battle last month. Luc-chan please pray for me in this battle.

“ Ohmy oh my, is your friend who think he could be Paladin are already for this match ? Look at their status ,oh my oh my too weak right Aurora hhihihihihih" Seren laughed maniacally as she stares towards Lylia from afar.

“I think we should not judge them by their status Lady Seren.” Said Raphtalia.

“Very well, since you're also thought that Lylia must be seriously thinking about this match huh. Hanzo ! Aurora! I want you to fight alongside me as a nanaryu rank gameplay. So, don't you guys ever humiliate me in front of the teacher and our beloved classmate who watch us battle.” Seren smiled cynically from afar.

“ Group 5th battle. Reaaaddyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!! Battles stttttttarrrrrrrrt!!!!!!” . After make sure all the opponent are on the battle field, Teacher Mica with her glorious voice officially started the match.

This is where the battle begins. All the crowds making very noisy noises out there cheering for the battle. Of course this is special battle where the weaklings are monopolized by the stronger in rank position. And I started to mumbling the words that I learned from Luc-chan(watch the opponent's steps, learn the movement, catchup the speed, attack faster...). Back to the field, there's a movement detected from above views. It was the assassin making move run towards us. As I expected, they'll send their close combat teammate to get close to us without any protection. But that's what worry us. Their assassin was faster than the speed of a horse running and charging us. I bring out my swords and stand a pose that protect Layla and Reus-kun. No matter what happens I must protect these two in early game. Seems like from afar, the maniac queen finally taking a move.

"[METEOR SHOWER]!!!"

Wait a minute isn't that voice was Raph-chan's? She begins to pull her bow and launch some shining and glowing flame arrow spell on the sky. While I was busy focus on the assassin who is running and trying to get close to us, Reus-kun chanted his spell. He raised both of his hand towards the sky and steadily chanted. I didn't know what he was doing but what I know is he was trying to protect us. That's what on the plan, each of us plays two roles in a group. Reus will protect us from a long range attack and attack opponent from a long range while Layla will keep an eye to Seren and heal us at the same time increase me and Reus' movement speed. For me, I'll just keep defending these two from being attack by Hanzo in a close range attack then I'll find an opening to get close to the opponent since I am a close range combat type.

" Bestow the power of great One , death come by feelings, never sympathy to those....borrow me the power of creation[ VALHALAC BARRIER]!!!!!!!" that's Reus' magic.

That crazy magic creates a wall was Reus'. It's just like a platinum the biggest wall that protect us from above. The shield has the incentive about 9 inch (ca. 23 centimeters). He must have used too much mana on creating those. It has a big head skeleton symbol on the wall. It looks cool and fierce. How could a cute short boy having such raging power. Oh my gosh, that's cruel god hahahaahaha≥﹏≤The flame arrow that launched by Raph-chan was being barred when the arrow couldn't penetrate Reus' giant wall or I could say it was a mega shield actually. While Layla keep increasing our mana, I carefully face Hanzo since he has arrived in front of us. He was about to get close to us, but he couldn't because I was defending my teammate. On the other side Seren look at us happily and...

“ Let's start the real show now” With her smiling teeth like the devil smiling while screaming.

Something is weird. Why does Seren said to start the real show, doesn't we had started it a minute ago. I quickly take a look at my surrounding and damn....... I forgot that Raph-chan speciality!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Raph-chan can use 2 different magic at the same time, but she's also had to use a lot of mana and intensively concentrate on her magic. While I was busy focus on Hanzo who was running towards us , Reus still busy hold his giant wall as the flame arrow didn't stop launched by Raph-chan, and Layla focus on increasing our mana and too much focus to Seren movement. The three of us has been trapped in their hand. This is a very perfect strategy to conquer the enemy on a real battle. We didn't have any hand to protect what in front of us now.

“ whattt???!!!!!” Reus shouted

“Lylia !!!!” Layla shouted panickly.

Hanzo sudden blink in front of me and trying to hit my head with his violent nail as he swing his claw, I take a quick back step as I am trying to avoid but it was a mistake. They literally want me to take a step back. Wolfman Hanzo the assassin purposely make me doing that then he blinks to the right side of our area where Layla was. I'm trying to not letting Hanzo get near to Layla because she's our supporter but after Hanzo blink to the right side just now, Raph-chan already launched an ice arrow towards us. It was a blind spot !!!that's really a complete killer strategy they had. They made me to choose whom I had to save first. At the time, if I save Layla first, Reus will get hit by Raph-chan attack and if I save Reus-kun first, Layla will be the one get knocked out, and we will not have any life support. So we couldn't do anything now? My feet shaking, I know it'll hurts if we got hit by that. You've grown up as a strong hero Raph-chan. With the little courage I had to use my body as sacrifice in order to protect my teammate. Without them none of us will survive. I use my own mana and ...

"[ WHITE RAY]!!!!" That's my countering skill in a short range. So pathetic.

It was swinging a sharp white line that release shining and magic counter as I swing my sword. However, in order to protect those two, I have to receive the damage where my White ray didn't hit. An explosion happened. The noise of the student getting silent. It was too much of blurs sand that covering to what happened in the battlefield. Even the teacher have to stand up and look closer to what's really happening. It's really frustrating, while Raph-chan launched an ice arrow towards us,she releases her other hand that controlling the flame arrow. In short time, she created one more new magic. That's also Reus didn't realize Raph-chan had stopped from launching the flame arrow above us. The other magic was created by Raph-chan was the ice arrow followed by explosion arrow. That's what really happen. As we could see arrow explosion is the cause that explosion happens when it hit something. I was getting hurt and fall down on the underground. Layla hurts a little, but she was thrown away not to far from me at 2o'clock maybe while Reus also blown away but not too far from me or I could say he's just behind me and was suffered from the damage. It was totally a perfect killer strategy they got us. The wolfman just a distraction and crowd controller while Seren order Raph-chan using her magic to attack from a long range. In conclusion, only Raph-chan are the one who's using her magic alone to attack us. Is this the end of us. I was frustrated of their teamwork. I envy their perfect plan. I hate their psycho on us. Is this how Nanaryu rank gameplay huh?

“Wuahahahahaahhhaaha, what are these junks doing on the floor? Did you all not having enough sleep yesterday? Wuahahhahaha” that maniac queen Seren laughed maniacal.

Raph-chan just stay quiet and keep staring at us. Even the wolfman Hanzo the assassin smile a little watching us fall on the ground. The crowd come again as they cheer for Seren's team. Teacher Mica seriously observe the match. And there's a boy standing from afar watching the match. He looks pretty interested of this match. He was our senior, an Eiryu rank. I didn't know what's his name. Anyways, back to the battlefield. Without being order,Layla stands up and heal herself and us. I then get up and regroup again. Seren's group aware that we're getting up already.

"Oh my oh my, ready for second round junks? Wuahhhhhaahhaha" said Seren.

" Stick to the plan guys.” I told Layla and Reus

They nodded as they understand my words. Then, Seren's group make the first counter again. We still stick to the plan where Layla will heal us and increase our mana,Reus keep defending and counter when we had a chance, and myself will keep protect these two while observing the battle.

“Let's survive this until we had a chance!!!” I said to Layla and Reus-kun

“Yes!!!” both of them replied.

But this time I'll make a little difference. Hanzo come again with his speed blink in front of me . Then I take the chances not to avoid this time but to stopped him from moving while Reus-kun casting an attack magic . When Hanzo swing his fierce claws I without doubt hit my sword to his claws and (ATTACK COUNTER). This time I fight with Hanzo nonstop. Seren's face changing quickly. As I attack Hanzo unstoppable they couldn't see or do anything with Hanzo in front of them. Hanzo didn't hesitate to battle with me. As expected from a top five ranking in Goryuu. I won't let them get in the way of our plan. Seren smiled and order Raph-chan again.

“Aurora, attack them from here with a finishing blow” Seren said this to Raph-chan

"Ehh? If I used my finishing blow, Hanzo-san will get hit by my magic too” Raph-chan explain.

“No worry, as long one of our teammate alive, we still can win this match.” Seren showed her evil face while laughing.

“Yes I'll do.”said Raph-chan

Raph-chan kindness makes her think twice because she'll never hit her teammate just to win this match. To her, showing one's strength is the right thing in a battle not to sacrificing a teammate. But however , she had to do so because she can't win over Seren anyways. Raph-chan put both of her hand and starting to chant the finishing blow.

"May what it takes , will get what it wants, seek for glory might.......oh Holy God of War I owe you [ DESTRUCTION QUADRA]!!!!!...I'm sorry Lia"she said that silently

I already know this will happen. But I still did not give up and continue sly hit a thousand of hit to Hanzo as Hanzo can't avoid but have to take the damage little by little. Thanks to Layla, she was the one who increasing my movement in attack. Reus-kun again chant his spell.

"Oh the One, let the end light the dark, let the dead eat the lives......lend us your mighty power behold [ GOLDEN COLLOSEUM]”!!!!

So what's happen here was a 4 dark devil headed dragon was summoned from a spell by Raph-chan, this is her most powerful finishing blow magic ever she reached. She's summoning a beast. She's now using it to attack us here from behind. At the same time, Reus creates a wall that protect us from above, behind and even from sides. It had a gigantic Colosseum golden arena protect us inside from Raph-chan magic. While we're in the golden Colosseum protection , Hanzo stopped for a while and take a look of what happen. He looked tiredly as he breathe hardly and shocked about the situation that he didn't expect he'll also about to get hitted by Raph-chan's magic his teammate. That's out of their plan. A great noise was make from the whole classmate who watch the match and even teacher Mica looks surprise by the attack creates from a Goryu Rank person.

“A summoner??? From a Goryuu rank? This is interesting.” Said teacher Mica while interested to Raph-chan ability.

"Oh my oh my, why such a cutie beholds the power of the darkness here?didn't know a Goryuu rank can chant a summon spell. Wuahahahhahahhah it's getting fun now even an Nanaryuu rank hardly to use it wuahahahha..." Seren talk to herself while happily watching Raph-chan attack.

But what happened next is really horror, Reus magic can't hold any longer. The 4 headed devil dragon was 7 times bigger, strong , and powerful than the Golden Colosseum. The 4 headed devil dragon was really fierce, it breaks colosseum wall easily in just a second by biting it. They had 8 pairs of black wings equips some of the dark platinum parts. The intense of a dragon make the whole fields fear to dead. And here I am shaking my feet again. I feel afraid of my friend's power? What is this feeling. The difference are too far. Now I really doubt about my plan. I wanted to cry. Now the 4 headed dragon roars then attack us merciless. Even Hanzo are being prey of the quadra dragon. Teacher Mica still didn't stop us. This is going crazy, they wanna kill us for real??? We can't do anything but stunned greatly by the Dragon. The dragon attact and attack us roughly and I try to bring Layla and Reus runaway from the dragon. But it seems that Layla and Reus fear too mmuch of it they can't even run faster . Then 4 of us including Hanzo get blown away . BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!

The crowds come again in silence, they try to look carefully of what has happened. Teacher Mica also curious about what's happen to us exactly. So, when the blurry view getting sharp, 4 of us suffered the damage on the ground. None of us stand still and Raph-chan were out of magic, she kneels down tiredly. What the hell with Raph-chan's power? She's so strong...feel like I was going to die from the explosion again. This time Layla and Reus almost can't get up. Hanzo was completely faint. That's really a brutal way to finish the opponent I can say. I was disappointed falling down on the ground suffered the damage taken and can't even move a muscle.

...to be continued

*what'll happen to Lylia and her teammates. Will she survive or not,will they failed the test?will she be able to go home safely like she promise Luc-chan??? Well see you in the next chapter.^o^don't forget to follow and get notified.♡

In previous episode, Lylia and her teammates was beaten down by Raphtalia summoned beast. Battlefield's condition are as destroyed as roughly as a quick earth quack. The ground was perforated. The scenes are most likely they just had an epic war. But actually they are having an epic war.

At this time, I feel like giving up...there's no hope, am I this weak ? I haven't showed a little improvement from the training I've been up to. Luc-chan, what will you do if you're in my place? Ehh? Why did I could only thinking about Luc-chan at time like this? I'm so pathetic, still depending on to someone. What a useless hero I am. Maybe what Serena tell about being a Paladin just doesn't suit me after all? What can I do now?stand up ?or give up?...suddenly I heard something that...

[...you better move faster or you won't have a dinner tonight... I know what's on your mind, you think that you never had a chance to beat them...as long as you're not falling down, that's what make you stronger than them...]

Why did I hear these things when I was about to give up huh? Damn it, Luc-chan.....you really are something to me. Lylia didn't know what's really happened but remembering Luc-chan give her little hope, little courage, little chance to stand up and fight. Layla could barely move her hand and heal me and Reus wound from afar then give us some mana. Thanks to Layla again we regain conscious back. The three of us get up and gathered. Layla also heal Hanzo wound then Hanzo realize he was healed and stares at us with a killer intense.

“ Thank you for healing me. But I won't let all of you getting off even you've already helps me. “ Hanzo said that because he also doesn't want to lose.

“Hanzo-san, your worth to be healed. And we're not helping you so you could let us go. We just do it from our sincerity. It's nice to have a duel with you, I was having fun. Anyways, we should continue this.” I said this to Hanzo because he was a good assassin and our fight isn't over yet.

The noises keep louder as they amazed by this epic match. Couldn't imagine how did we survive. But I quickly made up my mind and tells my teammate.

“ We still had to stick to the plan.”

"EHH???what ? Didn't you saw that devil things just now, we all could die you know. That's just a vain.” Said Reus who's are now afraid of the other side.

“Yes I know, but here we have our supporter Layla to deal with us. Here's the thing....” I told them the new strategy.

While on the other side Seren was absolutely shocked that the three of us could still get up and regroup. Her rage has reached the dangerous zone. I think she's already to show her real strength. Raph-chan was taking a rest, and she's somehow glad that we're still got up. Hanzo was not too far, but he thinks about to retreat and go back to the group. Seren suddenly walk towards us. She still a little too far but from what I know besides her was Raph-chan who walk together side by side. It seems like Hanzo was talking to them.

“Oii, are you mad or something? You could kill me if you are just doing that without warn me first.” Said the mad Hanzo to Seren and Raph-chan

" Ohmy oh my, You're a Goryuu rank isn't it, you should at least be able to survive from that." Seren said angrily to Hanzo while walking towards us.

Luckily we just done our discussion and Seren was near us. She takes out her blade and point it to us.

“I'll have to take you down myself you piece of junk”

And I take my sword which was fall down on the ground and then charging towards her. Seems like Raph-chan and Hanzo didn't move at all, meaning to say that Seren only interested to fight me alone. Surprisingly she was very mad to me as I act that I'll be able to stand and fight again and again. She never sees me as a hero, so no wonder. When I am charging towards her, the edge of her blade and my sword slashing each other. The scene was like a female barbarian who was in battle. The sounds of our weapon hitting each other make the crowds sounds louder. This was very awesome. I actually fight with someone who's higher than me in ranking. So, this is how's it feels like being able to duel with a Nanaryu rank huh. Seren's skill are more faster,more power,more strength in it and more rages. This is make it hard. It is an epic battle. Goryu was fighting with Nanaryu like a prey fighting it's killer. I admit that Seren really mastered her way of fighting, and I was getting hit 2 times stronger about to take a step back. Seren rages moves and hitting harder and harder make me feels the tense and pain. This is what happen when someone messed up with Seren huh, This is so dangerous. Layla and Reus was waiting for my action but I still need a little time to carried out the true strength of this maniac queen. I was told that Seren had two dangerous skill. First , this is a skill that Seren always use, it was the harder the opponent, the stronger she gets. And her second skill is what terrified me, it was a skill that returning her opponent's physical attack. She's rarely used it because she'll only used it to an opponent that are much stronger than her. Here's what I was going to do, I'm going to make Seren charging at me with her full potential until she needs some helps from her teammates. I know her power was one to be scared but this is the only chances I have. I learned my opponent's movement and I learned how far was the opponent strength. I need just a little more and the time has come.....

Serena was angrily released her mana, she finally used that second skill. When I hit her, ciiiinngggg!!!!!! My sword blown far away to nowhere. Seren raised her blade.

"[AMON RAGE]"

"Farewell you demon.." Seren said .

But what I'm going to do is teleport to the side and get away even it was a short range in about 2 meters from Seren. The blade that Seren about to hit me was hitting the ground. The ground was split into two as I avoid it. All of us stunned by her power. That's no kidding,that's the true power of a Nanaryu rank. Her movement isn't like before, she's faster 4 times than Hanzo blink. If I was about to run towards my teammates, She definitely will take down all of us in a minute.

“Layla do something, couldn't you make Lylia-san faster?she's now in danger you know.” Reus ask Layla in a nervous situation.

“No, I've already increased Lylia's movement speed to her maximum. This is the true power of Nanaryu ...” said Layla who shaken to the intense of Nanaryu rank true power.

I didn't have a choice, I can't even runaway from her in this state. Looks like I have to face her without my weapon. I teleport near to Serena and fight her furiestly she was too strong, I avoid her blade as fast as I can, but she always hits me with her punch from her left hand. What should I do? I was already in the trap of Seren anger. If I make a little mistake I could barely die now. I tried to avoid as fast as I can.

[....learn your opponent's movement.....learn their steps....if the opponent attack faster, avoid faster than the opponent' attack ....] haaaaa, Luc-chan's word suddenly hits my mind.

Yes that's right. I need to learn about my opponent. This match isn't just about strength , it's about how will you fight when you're in trouble. Raph-chan and Hanzo-san still didn't dare to move since Seren was still enjoyed playing with me. My heads already bleeding by the hit of some ridiculous punches Seren had. That time, my body learn to reflect to what I have been into. The atmosphere changes. Seren was totally thinking out of wonder, why does all her hits are now getting avoid. While Seren keep attacking me with punches and her blades, I found an opening and quickly used my palm hit Seren's right hand which is handling the blade and another hand is hitting Seren's chest. Booooom .. The crowds are getting lower and then louder again when they saw Seren was thrown away and fall to the ground. I did it. Seren was completely fallen to the ground and her rages are now become more furriest than ever.

" Aurora !!!!! Hanzo !!!! What the two of you dreaming there ? Lets kill this bunch of junk together!!!!" Seren really mad about this.

And that's when I give the signal to Reus. Reus creates triple Golden Colosseum and trapped Raph-chan and Hanzo inside. According to the plan. Reus' job was to disconnected Seren and her teammates even if it just in a short time. In that time I'll keep attacking Seren. Seren in his mad mode again use her skill and give her best and full potential to fight me. However, that's not my intention. The thing is, Reus buys the time for me to exhausted Seren mana. Well if you look at Seren,she's slowly and slowly out of mana. I realize she is the one who'll drain out of mana first, that's why in the first battle, she never really wanted to show up. That's why, she thinks she could finish us using her dangerous skill or I mean AMON RAGE. That's a mistake for Seren. Unfortunately, we have Layla, a mana producer and our healer. While I was busy keep Seren fighting, Reus knows that his magic are not enough to defeat Raph-chan's, I really know that. But can he do was to keep them far away from each other. Hanzo was an assassin that really good at close combat, so as long as he can't pass Reus' barrier he couldn't do anything. So sad huhu. Even if they're trapped in the golden Colosseum , there's no guarantee that Raph-chan will never use her most powerful attack. As I predict, Raph-chan will have to used it to get out of there. Her summoned magic are really strong but it will drain out Raph-chan mana quickly. Raph successfully break the three golden Colosseum there but her spell didn't hold any longer and her summoned magic disappear. This is a right chances for Hanzo, he'll eventually go out and kill our producer but worry not. Reus already creates ten of the VALHALAC WALL along the way the battlefield. Now Seren are completely disconnected with her teammate. But this is just the beginning of my plan.

When Seren realize her teammates are on the other side of VALHALAC WALL she left me with a blowing shot and it was so faster and stronger . It hurts my chest and I just realize my cloth are dirty and a lot of torn on it. I think Luc-chan going to mad with me this time.

“Not bad you junk, I was about to exhaust all of my mana” said the tired Seren.

“ You know what?” I asked her.

“huh?”

“ Luc-chan told me that, ....even the weaker can get stronger, and the stronger can get weaker. So even if you're coming from a royal family or whatever, you should never underestimate your opponent and keep believing in your partners.”

“Don't mistaken you piece of sh*t , you don't have the right to teach me that. As a Nanaryu , I'll take you down and feel the power of a Knightwaker...."Seren said. Looks like she really didn't want to hear me.

From my point of view actually Seren just show her dependence on her partners just now, she never really like to ask them for help. Now she's trying to break the VALHALAC WALL herself, so she can communicate with her teammate. Layla run to me and heal me, and she suddenly faint. She did only heal my half wound and faint on me. I grab her and called her name, but she didn't give any response. This must be she have used too much power in this match. We really should thank her that we still survive with her helps. I bring and put Layla under a tree that far from the area we are battled. Not just a long ago, Seren able to break the VALHALAC WALL. I was surprised that she still have energy to breakthrough the thickest Valhalac Wall. She then regrouped with her teammate and making new strategies. But I told Reus to go look for Layla condition. Reus wanted to help me, but he had to listen to my order and left a word...

"You better comeback safely, Lylia -san” Reus' words are just like Luc-chan's word. I feel a little motivated just now and started to warming up my body in front of my opponent.

“ Is she mocking with us?” asked Hanzo to Seren and Raph-chan who was healing Seren's wound.

“ She's making fun of us maybe?” Seren asked out of wonder.

“Nope, she's serious to fight the three of us. I knew her because we're close friends. This is her serious mode when she was motivated by something. “ Raph-chan said this with a serious expression to her teammate.

“Whatttt!!! So she hadn't.." Seren was just about to finish her words but Raph-chan interrupt her.

" Lady Seren!!! Hanzo-san !!! We should attack her once and for all. We need to give our best because I don't want to lose this match without something worth.” Raph really serious about this.

“Whattt??!!!!, I ... I know what to do, you don't have to order me too.... So, if that is what she wants from us, Lets give it our all”

“YES!!!” seems like they're also get motivated huh.

I take a stick that I found on the ground and decided to use it. When I saw the stick, I finally understood what's Luc-chan meaning of his words he told me yesterday. Weapon is not the only thing you need to prepare, but a strong mind and heart. He just randomly said to read the opponent's movement, actually I just need feel and think how if I was in the place of a Hero. Luc-chan really teach me a skill that required to defeat a hero. My prediction was true after all, they'll attack me once and for all from three different places. Somehow it makes my heart calm a little when I am the only one they're targeting. If not, it will be harder to protect those two. Luc-chan you're really such a hentai demon.(meanwhile Luc-chan at home was sneeze out of wonder while he was watering the plant). When this happens, the teacher are also motivated to watch our match and the others cheered out louder than before. To me, an epic scene are about to begin. 3 vs 1.

Eventually the three of them move at the same time, and I stand still my readily-fighting-pose. No one will figure out who'll be the first one to counter me. After a few seconds Raph-chan chanted a wind spell that created a spear, and then she threw it towards me. I know that when I move a little to the side, one of them had already started to get close to me and make a contact. That's what making this more interesting. The whole battlefield just felt the real match. I wanted to use Luc-chan mana but I think I'll use my own. I jump to the air. This is just like my training with Luc-chan, but he was more faster than Seren's team movement. Ehh wait a minute, isn't this is the same meaning that I have already moved faster that my opponent? Or are they getting slower?. Somehow my body reacts to what I saw and by letting my body reacts as it is natural move. I was able to avoid Seren slashing mana that supposed to hit me. When I am stepping on the ground I kneel as lower as I could because I know Hanzo was too closed to me that time. He could blink faster to everywhere but I realize he is often blinking to the right side. Without hesitate I put some of my mana into the stick and swing it on the right side of me when Hanzo was blinked. It really works and Hanzo was hitted by it then thrown to Seren body. It is an accident that Hanzo was blown to her and the exhausted mana of Raph-chan can't do anything beside use her left mana in a close combat. This is where the right timing and my planned was actually effectively carried out. The three of them are now nearer to each other. They run charging aggressively towards me. It is a wonderful view as , Hanzo use his mana to make him more protection,Raph-chan use her left mana on her hand to make her hand as an offensive shield and Seren force herself to use her AMON RAGE. With only a stick on my hand I bravely take the risk by charging towards three of them. I used the lesson I got from Luc-chan. They're actually didn't have any protection anymore. All of them fight like there's no tomorrow, fight like there's a hope in front of them and fight the best they can. I also want to show those feeling towards and not to let them down. Everyone was so nervous and never blink an eye on our match. It really is a worth fight you know. All of them screaming just support us who was in the battlefield.

I take and put the stick like I was showing them a pose of taking-out-a-sword pose. When the three of them nearly enough, they're also shouts to their best. I teleport myself behind them and was in the air , it is just a short teleporting because it's one of the skill I mastered. They were stunned by my action, I was completely lost from their sight and now behind them. They couldn't do anything at the time. It's too late even to take a breath was too late.

" [DEATH BACK STEP]" CINGGG!!!!!!!

I finally succeed beating them once and for all in just one slash. I really used the weird name that Luc-chan gave to that combo skill. It was really a big helpful when it comes to this kind of situation. Luckily, that skills only need a little amount of mana, so I didn't exhaust of mana but only suffered little physical damage. Then the teacher announce that the match is over. Because Seren's team can't even move a muscle anymore. I am happily running to Reus and Layla. Layla just wake up, and she was shocked that we win this match.

" So does this mean, we pass the exam??” asked Layla

“ Yes,of course” I said happily

We're all too happy and walkout together to the restroom from the battlefield. The crowd really are something that annoys me. They're screamed too loud but positively, they must be amazed by the battled that we just had right. While in the restroom the paramedic is bringing Seren's team to the restroom to be healed. But Layla interrupt them and use the healing spell to heal Serena,Raph-chan and Hanzo-san wound. They realize that Layla was the one who heal them. Then the paramedic leave them to rest themselves.

“Thank you again. You've helped me two times and I didn't know how to replying your kindness. I am very thank you” Hanzo said it while embarrassing himself for what he has done.

“No, it is my sincerity to heal all of you. Furthermore, that was an amazing match. All of you're really strong, I'm looking forward to being friend with you guys.” Said the kind and gentle Layla

"err.....ermmm .....errmm" Seren was about to say something to me but..

“Hey, maniac queen? Are sick? Why did you cough? I asked instead.

“ woii, I'm not sick you jun....no, you Bastard Lylia!!!! “ She was just about to say junks didn't she? Maybe she's just poor girl that lack of love hmm hmmm

“ Well, Seren! You're good out there! Nanaryu was actually too strong. You can become a great Paladin someday! Hihi.” I said it for real. She really is stronger than any girls out there.

“ Is that so...you too bastard Lylia!!! Don't you dare to lose to someone other than me in the future” Seems like a Seren become friendly towards me and the others after the match.

“Hey could you not adding the 'bastard' thing behind my name? You can just call me Lia if you like” I said that as we're now being friends.

“ahahhaha” all of us laughed happily.

And that's the end of our day. The result will be announced tomorrow, and we're getting the permission to go home already. All of us walk home together and I really want to go home quickly. Because Luc-chan promise me that today's dinner are special. When I got home from a far it's weird. Luc-chan isn't in front of the door like he always does. I feel a little sad. He should welcome me like a winner or like a princess maybe. Hmmm. Then I take off my shoes and put it in the shoe rack. Then...

“ I'm home.....” I shouted.

----------------------. Luc-chan didn't

answer like he always does. Hmmm I think maybe he was ready preparing my special food hihihih

“I'm home!!!!” I shouted even louder again. But there's no answer.

Guess I have to enter myself. This is weird, usually Luc-chan always been here when I need him but not today? Does anything happen to him?

Then I open the door to enter and there's a popping sound,many delicious food prepared on the table,lights turn on dramatically and the room was decorated for a Birthday party. Luc-chan inside the living wore the shirts that I once make it for him even it looks ugly but...

“ HAPPY BIRTHDAY LYLIA” said Luc-chan with his smiling face ...o(〃＾▽＾〃)o

I was really..... really stunned and sooooooooo happy that I couldn't describe. This is the first time Luc-chan ever surprise me by doing like this. Usually he will let me know about my birthday every year but not this year. I didn't know there're tears falling from my eyes.

“Ehhhh? Lylia? You don't like this?if you don't want this I'll quickly throw all of this in just a second.” Luc-chan feels worried about me who cry in happiness.

Furthermore, only Luc-chan and I live in the house, and he always remembered my birthday. He is the only one who never forget it. I'm so grateful to have him. Really...

“tha....than.....thank you ...Lu..Luc-channn” I hug Luc-chan tightly and cry on his chest.

Luc-chan hug me back, and he accompanied me this night in my room together celebrate my birthday today. I tell him all the things happened in my match and what I feel, and we talk until I fall asleep.... Last but not the least, I wish to have Luc-chan as my special person in my life.
