Magic Academy Bans Harem

Chapter 203 Chic Evening Dress
For Merci, the existence of the "Bath Seminar" is very important.

In the past, no matter how she tried to understand and control the special power that could burn everything, she still couldn't avoid the fear and worry in her heart. And more importantly, if she was the only one who carried the power of the "Star Mark", she would be "alone".

However, when the seminar had three official members, Mercy's past worries, which had almost become a knot in her heart, began to dissipate unconsciously.

However, in her exchanges and communications with other members, Merci vaguely discovered that even among the star mark holders, she seemed to be a relatively special one.

Because, she is the only one who can hear "the voice" sometimes.

The first time she heard that voice was when her star pattern first appeared, or when it was about to appear. It was also under the guidance of that voice, or under the influence of negative emotions, that her power completely exploded, letting the flames engulf everything around her.

Merci initially thought that this phenomenon was caused by something hidden in her shadow at the time. Because there were many students who were also invaded by the "shadow" and went crazy during that period, and she was not an exception. And most importantly, Professor Ritas guessed this.

But as time went by, Mercy began to hear the voice again from time to time.

Now that the culprit who used shadows to harm others has turned into ashes, it is obviously difficult to attribute the sound to the influence of shadows.

So, whose voice is that?
Gradually, Mercy seemed to have the answer.

That was actually her own voice.

Although she didn't know why, the self that seemed to be lurking deep in her heart was always full of anger and despair towards everything, and just wanted to destroy and ruin everything.

The other "her" was so terrible that because of this, Merci never had the courage to discuss these things with Ritas or anyone else.

In the past, this voice would only appear when Mercie was in various extreme states, such as when her mental stress reached its extreme or her fatigue reached her limit. But that day, it once again filled Mercie's mind.

After seeing Ritas hanging in the air, Merci couldn’t remember what happened next.

She didn't know how she did it, but she did fly directly to the enemy.

Facing a monster that was completely white, Merci's vision was actually dominated by "black".

The voice that used to just roar at her to release the flames became a little "smarter" that day.

She was encouraging Merci, and her voice was full of temptation.

She was telling Mercy how much Professor Ritas had done for her.

It was Professor Ritas who kept her, who should have been kicked out of the academy, and even set up a seminar for her and recruited those companions. He built a place for her who was out of tune with the entire magic academy to be her true home.

The more complete and perfect the seminar is, the more it represents that Ritas is protecting her.

And Professor Ritas was actually hurt like that.
Absolutely unforgivable "Absolutely unforgivable!"

At the moment when the bewitching voice synchronized with Merci's voice, a hint of deep blue hatred appeared in Merci's eyes, which were only surrounded by the narrowing black of her vision and the white of the mountains and plains.

The hair is burning.

The limbs are turning a deep blue color.

There seemed to be an ice-blue mask on the face.

The net-like pattern begins to spread out from the star pattern.
Merci, who seemed to have entered a state of rampage, suddenly stretched out her arms forward, and a series of light curtains mixed with flames shot up into the sky.

Even then, the voice in Mercy's head still hadn't subsided.

Because she could still see the annoying white color blocking her way.

not enough.

But if we just give a little more, maybe it will be enough.

All you need to do is give your soul, your body, and yourself again, and turn everything into flames. The blue flame will be able to "purify" everything.

And, don't worry.

Didn’t God say that?

There is nothing special about transforming oneself into a part of the "Star Mark" power.

It's just an advanced
The azure blue that began from the fingertips slowly began to spread, and flames began to appear on Merci's body.

Then, at this critical moment, a "foreign object" suddenly appeared in Merci's sight.

It was a white disk that was spinning rapidly on the ground like a top.

“Damn it, Xiao Li! He throws me around like this again! Does he really think this thing won’t break?!”

The moment the sound from the disc sounded, the frequency of Mercy's flames began to slow down.

The voice in Mercie's head seemed to be trying its best to restrain Mercie from continuing to listen to the sound coming from the white disc.

However, on the one hand, the voice was too harsh to ignore and was particularly penetrating. On the other hand, she mentioned something that Mercy could not ignore in any way.

"Ritas, I'm watching you right there."

"."

Instantly, Merci felt a cool sensation that seemed to spread rapidly across her forehead.

In Merci's no longer confused mind, the voice in her head was still instilling hatred in her, telling her how unforgivable the enemy in front of her was.

However, thinking back on what Ritas had done so far, and recalling what the Bathing Goddess had said about Ritas seeming to appreciate Merci more for using the power of "Star Mark" as a tool, she simply transformed all the bewitching words into one sentence.

Can't let the professor down!
"Eh, eh? Professor? Where?"

As Mercy looked around in panic, she completely ignored the hysterical, helpless and furious roar in her mind.

"Sorry, Professor, I can't control myself again."

As the flame curtain faded, Merci heard the sound of Ritas coming from afar.

She was afraid to look at Ritas, so she lowered her head and apologized from a distance.

At the same time, he was frantically trying to hide the texture on his body, as well as the colors that were stained on his gloves and mask.

It was a state of extreme shame, "Professor, don't look at me!"

"There is no need to hide, student Merci. As long as you can control your power as you do now, the presentation of power is like a chic evening dress. If someone dresses like this at a masked banquet, it will surely be very popular."

Facing the extremely embarrassed Merci, Ritas gave a very fair (?) evaluation.

"Really? Is that true?" It sounded like a question, but Merci, who actually did not question Ritas, finally raised her head.

After receiving the compliment, she felt uncomfortably shy, but then she saw Ritas's current posture. Then, she couldn't help but tilt her head slightly.

"professor?"

Apart from anything else, the toy knight's doll horse head wrapped around his waist is really too eye-catching.

"There are many complicated reasons involved. Anyway, now is not the time to worry about them!"

As he spoke, Ritas leaped forward and directly pushed away Merci, who was facing him with her back to her opponent.

The sickle-shaped blade woven from white silk threads left a deep pit where Merci had stood before.

"Hey, don't do boring things. It's rare to stop her from 'sublimating'. This hunt needs to be more interesting--"

During this period, "Two Sides", who had been watching closely from the scene, quietly expressed their dissatisfaction.

It was not until this moment that Merci seemed to finally remember that she was on the battlefield.

In fact, this can't be entirely blamed on Merci. After all, when she saw Ritas being strung up to the sky, her memory and consciousness were not very clear.

"Interesting? Aren't you relieved to see that so-called 'sublimation' was stopped? Your power is visibly incompatible with fire. Moreover, the walls and pillars of fire rising from the ground must have embarrassed your 'ability' that you are so proud of, right?"

“Hehe, very boring speculation”

It was pointed out that when facing the flame curtain, it was not a two-way situation of "wanting to watch" but "can only watch". He just laughed and continued to weave his four hands into various weapons to smash them at Ritas and Merci.

But this time, Ritas did not dodge like before.

"Show some real training results."

"Yes!"

Standing in front of Ritas, Merci was no longer timid as usual, and her eyes were filled with determination.

She just made a gentle pushing motion with her hands in front of her, and instantly a huge blue fireball condensed and floated in front of her.

After the fireball withstood the first wave of "two-way" attacks, Merci reached her right hand into the flames and pulled out a flaming blade of the same color.

call!
The next moment, accompanied by an extremely neat horizontal slash, dazzling and blazing flames spread in a fan shape towards the sky.

As if in the entire burning space, the "two-way" silk thread was hastily retracted, and the huge body retreated several steps in succession, and then quickly retracted the silk thread and body, turning back into the shape of a normal human.

At a moment when it seemed like it was about to be completely swallowed by the blue flame, "Two-Way" gathered the white silk threads in front of it to form a shield, and then, just like before to resist Ritas's teleportation magic, countless arrow-like spikes extended from the white shield.

Suddenly, the extremely turbulent blue flame was "pushed" back to the direction where Merci was.

Merci, who had accumulated enough strength, grasped the hilt of the flaming sword with both hands and slashed down with great power.

boom!
In an instant, the flames that gushed out again collided with the flames that bounced back from the "two-way" direction, making a loud explosion. The flame waves generated by the collision of the flames turned the surroundings into a sea of red fire.

"Maybe. It's time to relax."

At one end of the sea of fire, "Two-Way" retracted his spiked shield, his expression still full of smiles.

On the other side, Merci, holding the azure sword in both hands, maintained the basic stance of the "Elson Style" swordsmanship, with a hint of flame at the corners of her mouth as she adjusted her breathing to be even.

".Wow! Mei, Merce is quite amazing!?"

"."

Slightly away from the battlefield, Ritas was collecting the white disc. Although his movements were calm as if everything was expected and under control, his inner thoughts were synchronized with the noisy goddess.

This is Mercy
Isn’t it a bit amazing?
"As expected of a school that can produce a swordsman. He has only practiced for a month and he looks pretty good. Now the question is, if someone has practiced swordsmanship for many years since childhood under the guidance of a swordsman, I can't even imagine how strong he is now!"

"."

If now was not the time for bickering, Ritas would have to have a good argument with the goddess of bathing, about how much of what Merci was showing now was in the realm of swordsmanship.

However, even though the "swordsmanship content" was limited, it was also a fact that on the battlefield not far away, a scene as if large-scale magic was constantly colliding was taking place.

What Ritas had to admit was that Merci's growth rate was far beyond his imagination.

Moreover, this speed is obviously abnormally fast.

Apart from anything else, Noah, who almost fell apart after using some of the power of the star pattern, is the best contrast.

So, it was as the goddess of the bath said, that half of some meteor or something hit Merci's body, which caused this?

But now is not the time to discuss these things.

The key is to first deal with the tenth-ranked "sinner" from the "Dark Evil".

Ritas felt his brain working quickly for the first time in a long time, and it only took him a few breaths to think about these things.

Although he was now far away from the battlefield, people familiar with Ritas did not think that he was letting his students take the lead while he fled to a safe place. Even the goddess of bathing who wanted to tease Ritas would not use these things to be sarcastic.

"So, if we don't destroy all manifestations of power at the same time, those 'ascended' Star Markers cannot be completely destroyed?"

"Almost? In the game, it's almost the same as waiting for the opponent's power to run out. After the third stage is activated, both the enemy and our Star Rune Users will have an extra energy bar that will drop whether they are attacking or being attacked. Only when the energy bar is gone can the damage be calculated normally."

"If we take the current opponent as an example, she hid some threads in a safe place beforehand. Does that mean that we can't completely destroy her no matter what?"

"That should be the case. However, her power shouldn't be too far away from herself."

The Bathing Goddess recalled everything in the "Star Mark" game and answered as best as she could.

"Hmm, in the game you just need to reduce the health bar so I didn't really realize it. This third stage of Star Mark is so invincible. Can I really win?"

While the Bathing Goddess was full of worries, Ritas said something that made her feel extremely at ease.

"It's not difficult. At least it's not a big problem for me."

As he spoke, Ritas looked around the World Tree, and then fixed his gaze on Filigree and Engri who were trying to revive the Stone Guardians.

"Even if it's just for the number of days of attendance, it's almost time to resolve everything."
