“Wind Blast!”

An enormous cannonball of wind ripped through the air, tearing up the paving stones. Everything was illuminated by a violent flash of light, and I felt the recoil slam against me. Finally, a vast crater could be seen beyond the rubble.

I’d done everything I could. This was an accomplishment I could be proud of. But then the dust cleared.

The master swordsman was still standing, right in the middle of the huge hole in the ground.

I guess it wasn’t enough...

He’d reacted to my attack from behind and deflected it with a light-speed strike of his own. He looked worse for wear, but as long as he could still fight, it meant he had won.

I’d given everything for this one and only chance, but it hadn’t quite been enough. I had barely any magical power remaining. What was left would never be enough for me to keep fighting him. I heaved a sigh and accepted defeat.

“Remarkable,” a voice from the audience said, breaking the silence.

The next moment, the field was flooded with a mixture of cheers and screams.

“Hey! There are cracks in the magical barrier!” one of the organizers shouted.

“Surely not...” another responded. “Top mages in the King’s Guard specially constructed this barrier!”

“Stop!” The staff were now bustling around, making considerable noise. “You have to stop the match right now!”

Huh? Seriously? Could my magic have damaged a barrier like that...?

I stood silently, unable to comprehend what was going on as the crowd reacted raucously to this shocking turn of events. I saw flustered organizers running back and forth in a frenzy. When I noticed that the aristocrat planning the tournament was among them, I couldn’t quite suppress a smile.

“Everyone knows that you’re no match for Sir Rashford. All you need to do is show up. It’ll all be fine.”

It seemed that I’d wiped the smirk from his face now. I hadn’t managed to beat the Undefeated Master of the Blade, but famously, nobody else had either. It was just too soon for me. When I really thought about it, it seemed obvious. After all, I was only a novice magician in her first year in the Royal Court Magicians’ Division. Even with help, it was ridiculous to think that I would have what it took to defeat the kingdom’s number one fighter.

But one day, I’ll get there. Mark my words.

Maybe I had no good reason to feel that way, but in that moment, I was certain of it.
