§ 23. The Magic of Love

I called out to the heap of black ash produced by Jirasd’s fury. “How long are you going to play dead? I even suppressed my anti-magic to give you a chance. Just attack already.”

The black ash began glowing with a dazzling light, then blew away to reveal Ledriano.

“Dear me, I should have expected such a discerning eye. I was hoping to catch you off guard, but you’ve caught me in the act. It seems I really will have to fight you fairly.” Ledriano reached for his glasses and removed them. His power instantly surged. “Just so you know, ranks one and two of the Hero Academy are on another level to rank three and below. If I don’t seal myself with a magic item like this, my power becomes so great, it could potentially destroy me.”

Ledriano drew a magic circle before himself and concentrated his magic at its center. Just then, though, I sensed a murderous intent welling up behind me.

The Holy Sword of Light came swinging down at my head but was caught mid-flight by my right hand.

“So one of you makes a show of unleashing power while the other launches a surprise attack. What an admirable display of fairness.” I yanked Enharle forward, slamming Zeshia into the ground.

She hit the dirt with a thunderous boom, splitting the ground and forming a crater. Yet Zeshia somehow kept hold of the sword—she seemed aware that releasing it would be akin to releasing their chance of victory.

“Hmm. How sturdy.”

Again, I raised my right hand and slammed her into the ground, but no matter how many times I swung, the crater only grew bigger while Zeshia remained unharmed.

“It’s pointless,” Ledriano said. “With the blessing of the holy sword and her own anti-magic, she’s shielded by two layers of protection. They won’t be so easily broken!” Ledriano placed a hand against the ground. A small puddle formed beneath his palm. “Protect and heal, Bailamente, Sword of Holy Harbor.”

The puddle of water rose into the air, where it morphed into the shape of a sword. The blue holy blade reminiscent of the ocean fit neatly into Ledriano’s palm.

I cast another Jirasd.

“Bestret!”

A magic barrier surrounded Ledriano’s entire body. Jirasd was right on target, but he withstood the blow by using his sword as a shield.

“Rega Indrea!” he cried, layering another barrier around himself. He then placed a holy curse on the barrier—Liad Anzemra, a curse that repelled demonkind. “Defend us, Bailamente, Sword of Holy Harbor! Protect life as you have since ancient times. Show us your power and will!” Ledriano unleashed the holy sword’s power, amplifying the strength of his barriers several tenfold. “Hiyaaaaaaaaah!”

Swinging the Sword of Holy Harbor, he struck down the black lightning around him. Jirasd scattered, and the surrounding buildings were obliterated by the rebounding attack.

“Did you think you could end this with a single spell? Don’t take humans so lightly.” Ledriano broke into a run. With Bailamente braced at the ready, he charged straight for me.
