Chapter 160: Magic Ban Countermeasures
Chapter 160: Magic Ban Countermeasures
There was a hint of frustration on the girl's face, which was keenly noticed by Caesar.
It's no wonder she thinks this way.
After all, the gap between the two is too big.
It is extremely difficult to cross this trench.
Next time I'll let in a little more sea water.
Caesar thought so.
He decided to change the subject.
"The school anniversary is coming soon, right? Are there any activities for freshmen?" Caesar asked.
"Oh, this one is available." Heather said quickly.
She knew nothing about fighting. When Barica and Caesar were sparring, she just came over to bring water and act as a mood-setter.
At this point, I finally talked about the topic that interested me.
"I heard that we can set up stalls or perform some shows during the school celebration." Heather said, "I heard that a senior student here came to our freshman class to recruit people to perform opera, and I was preparing to sign up."
"Opera?" Caesar was a little surprised: "You have such a talent?"
"Hehe, I grew up under the influence of art. Every inch of my skin carries the fragrance of literature." The expression on her face was quite confident, and she looked like she was really good at it.
"It's true." Barryka testified: "When Heather was a child, she always cried loudly. If she could sing with such a voice, she might be very talented."
Seeing her best friend's expression, Barica's mood seemed to improve and she made a small joke.
"What? I really can." Heather looked a little dissatisfied.
"Okay, okay, you really can." Barryka looked submissive.
"Heather, Barricka doesn't believe you." Caesar urged with a smile: "I suggest you perform a piece right now to shatter all her prejudices against you."
The tutoring for the two of them lasted for a while, and Caesar became quite familiar with Heather and Barricka, and they could make some small jokes with each other.
"I, I don't want to." Heather seemed a little tempted when she heard Caesar's suggestion, but she still held back.
"It would be so embarrassing to sing on the spot just to prove myself, right?!" Heather said.
Barica could see that she seemed to want to sing.
The girl said calmly, "What's so embarrassing about this?"
Barryka looked at Heather and looked quite serious: "Sing if you want to. No one will laugh at you."
"Hmm..." Heather looked a little conflicted.
"Sing, Heather." Caesar urged again.
Heather seemed like a very easy-to-understand person, but a little silly. Caesar was very curious about what it would be like for such a person to sing.
He was a bad guy and wanted to see what it would be like.
Of course, as a teacher, he would not laugh at it on the spot, nor would he tell everyone about it. He would just encourage it.
"Then... I'll sing it then."
Gritting her teeth, Heather made her decision.
"Ahem." She cleared her throat, looking somewhat professional.
She glanced at their reactions again, and after making sure that there was no smile on their faces, she took a deep breath:
"I thought--" This first sentence was not simple, and the pitch was very high.
"My love is eternal, bright as the stars and deep as the ocean."
Heather placed her hands on her chest and gradually adjusted her tone.
"I stand here, the stars are dim, the oceans are dry~"
She sang an opera which was quite popular in Orne, called "The Flowers of Pity".
The story is quite cliché. Nishizawa has a general understanding of it. It is basically a love story of a woman who is separated from her lover for a period of time. When she finds him again, the man has already found a new lover.
This paragraph is the heroine's lines. Now is the time when the heroine finds out that the hero has fallen in love with someone else and that cracks have appeared in her love for him.
Caesar was not very interested in this kind of story because he had seen many such stories when he was on Blue Star.
However, the world has a very high opinion of "Lian Sheng Hua", and it is a very widely circulated opera.
Heather's voice was unexpectedly beautiful, and the ups and downs of her tone revealed a subtle sense of mourning.
Barricka was also a little surprised that Heather actually had this skill.
"In memory—"
"Looking for your shadow~"
"But I found that even those sweet moments"
"It's also getting blurry..."
The tone rose higher and higher, and finally stopped abruptly at the highest point.
"How is it?" Heather opened her eyes and asked nervously.
"Well, it sounds very nice." Caesar gave a thumbs up, and what he said was absolutely true.
I never thought Heather had such a skill.
"Where's Barica?" Heather turned her head in the direction of her best friend.
"Yeah, it sounds good." Barry nodded in approval: "If you are going to attend the opera performance, I will go to see it if I am free."
"Hehe, it's not that nice to hear." Heather touched her head and smiled embarrassedly.
"It's just that there might be some conflicts at that time." Barica frowned: "I signed up for the single-player competition of Forbidden Magic Countermeasures, so there might be conflicts at that time."
"Demon Forbidden Countermeasures?! Isn't that something that seniors can also sign up for?" Heather's eyes widened: "Why are you signing up for this?"
"This is the race where I have the best chance of winning, so of course I have to give it a try," Barricka said surprisingly.
The school offers a course called "Countermeasures against Demons".
As the name suggests, this course mainly teaches the magician's combat ability in an environment where there is no magic or magic cannot be used.
In many mazes, magic power will be suppressed or disrupted by formations. In such places, it is often necessary to consume several times the magic power to barely release a little magic, or it may not be usable at all.
It is said that a long time ago, a great magician named Quagmire developed a technique called Chaos Magic, which could directly interfere with the operation of the opponent's magic power. Unfortunately, it has now been lost.
This situation is very unfavorable for mages. In order to prevent mages from becoming lambs to be slaughtered in this situation, the school opened this course.
The rules of the Forbidden Magic Countermeasures Competition limit the amount of magic power that students can use. Students cannot consume magic power that exceeds that limit and defeat their opponents in this situation.
For Baraka, such a competition to some extent makes up for the magic gap between herself and the seniors, and she can then use her superb physical skills to defeat her opponents.
Bring your opponents to the same level as yourself, then use your rich experience to defeat them.
"I want to win the competition so that I can be recruited by His Highness Jefferson Allen and join the Knights." Barricka Dex expressed her plan.
