Announcer: Now, onto the next round! Mizusata from Vector vs. Hiro from Elune!

--- Chapter 116 ---

The two walk out, Hiro smiles at his opponent. She blushes and looks down.

Announcer: Ok! Begin!

Mizusata shrugs off her opponent’s smile and hypes herself up. She quickly looks up, sending her red vector arrows flying at his head.

Mizusata: This is a fight, no time for charms!

The arrow flies, and right before it hits his head, he tilts his head to the right, causing it to miss. Her eyes go wide.

Mizusata: How did he do that?! It- it must have been a fluke.

She puts her hands up, creating multiple arrows that lock on to Hiro. Hiro begins to walk forward. He jumps over one coming from below. He ducks and dodges all the arrows she sent.

Mizusata: How are you doing that!

Hiro smiles and tilts his head. He points to his eye.

Hiro: It allows me to see mana fluctuations and mana in general. Those arrows you make are made of pure mana, so the normal eye cant see it. But I can.

She shows a face of shock, before sending multiple arrows toward him. Hiro keeps dodging, unphased by these attacks. She jumps up and lands on an arrow, and begins riding it like a skateboard. She creates an arrow in he hand like a spear.

Mizusata: If I can’t land a hit like that, I will just have to do it myself!

She rides right toward Hiro, she lifts her spear and stabs it toward him. But to her surprise he arches his back backward, dodging the spear. He puts his palm toward her, and the blade tip comes out cutting her leg. She falls off the arrow and rolls on the ground.

Hiro: Miss, can you please forfeit? I don’t want to hurt a girl if I don’t have to.

Mizusata: Well isn’t that kind!

She says turning to throw the spear at him. However, he slices the spear in half with his katana.

Mizusata: H-how did you cut my arrow. I-its mana.

Hiro: To be honest, I just learned these blades can do stuff like that not too long ago. So, what are you going to do?

Mizusata: Heh. I concede.

Announcer: You heard her folks! Hiro is the winner! I have no idea what happened in that fight, but hey, who am I to judge! Next up we have Sugima from Vector vs Loweseph from Maskrah!
