Luina Berchef, both a student and a knight, was no exception.
Swish—
The sword danced. Deflecting all the sword strikes that flew at her trying to tear at their owner, she advanced.
Clash!
Her opponent's grip was torn. The sword flew through the air.
"I surrender, I surrender...!"
The sword stopped in front of her opponent's neck. Bella Hoenne raised both hands.
"Wow, Luina, what happened to you during the break? Now we can't even match you when we both attack!"
"I'm ranked 17th in the Knight Department, you know!"
Aina, who had been subdued before Bella, protested indignantly.
"Nothing special happened."
Something did happen.
"I just broke through a wall."
"That is special!"
"No wonder...! We can't match her even with both of us."
Aina agreed with Bella's words.
"At this rate, you might even beat that monster, Senior Rob?"
"That's for Luina to know. I just hope I can make it to the top 32 this time."
"You won't make it."
