Anime, infinite dimension starting from Mahou no Yakumo

"Speaking of which, Masahiro-kun, you have a match later, right? Is it really alright for you to stay here with me?"

"Of course, no problem, it's just the qualifiers."

Yotsuba Mahiro said nonchalantly.

Where can I watch Mayumi doing stretching exercises in preparation for a competition? It's quite interesting.

"So... will there be any surprises today?" Mayumi asked with a hint of anticipation.

She has Shin's help, just like when she opens a Christmas present, she is always given a different surprise.

In yesterday's preliminary round, I first helped her optimize the magic activation method, and then in the final round, I helped her improve the magic.

She was looking forward to seeing what changes would occur next.

"Unfortunately, no."

Mahiro shrugged and said, "Yesterday I was completely drained trying to improve your magic, and now I'm utterly broke."

"Hmm... don't use such ambiguous language!"

Mayumi muttered shyly, "Squeeze me dry... I've never done anything so outrageous."

Hearing Mayumi's shy tone, Mahiro remained calm and pouted, saying, "If you really want to surprise me, it's not impossible to prepare something."

Under the expectant gaze of the other party, he added:

"At worst, we can go to Senior Jumonji and use his family's ancestral magic, 'Connecting Wall Formation,' to create multiple moving defensive walls in 'Swarm of Balls Scoring Points.' That should be quite interesting, right?"

"Please don't do that!" Mayumi quickly stopped her.

Those large, deep purple eyes stared intently at him, filled with determination!

Putting aside whether she can use the "connected square formation" of the Jumonji family, Yotsuba Mahiro's behavior alone is enough to offend many people.

Although the Ten Masters Clan does not care if others can use their clan's secret techniques, it does not mean they will tolerate it without limit.

If this continues, sooner or later they will be criticized by the various families of the Ten Masters Clan.

"Whatever you want."

Yotsuba Mahiro seemed completely unconcerned.

Since Jumonji Katsuto will be participating in the "Secret Stele Decoding" competition anyway, the "Connecting Walls Formation" magic will be his sooner or later.

...

Next, the "group ball scoring" competition began.

The result was unsurprising; Mayumi was the winner. So he watched for a while before heading to his own arena.

The stands for the "Ice Pillar Attack and Defense" match were already packed with people.

Apart from a small number of outsiders, the majority are students from various universities.

Because there are no limitations on power, the contestants can freely display their magic, and the scene of the ice pillars shattering is also very spectacular.

Therefore, "Ice Pillar Attack and Defense" is the second most popular event in the Nine Schools Battle.

Sayaka and Erika were among them.

Miyuki, Kitayama, Honoka, Mizuki, Leo, and even Shiba Tatsu, who was in charge of the rookie tournament, were all in the audience.

"Hey Xiangxiang, what were you doing yesterday? You didn't even come to watch the game."

"Huh? I... I wasn't feeling well yesterday, so I slept in my room all day..."

Faced with Erika's question, Sayaka, sitting in the audience, became somewhat flustered, nervously rubbing her hands between her thighs, her gaze darting around.

"That's a real shame."

Erika noticed something was wrong with Sayaka; she was clearly lying!

Then, in a teasing tone, she casually said, "But I remember you didn't show up the day before yesterday, Xiangxiang. It seems that even your meals were personally delivered by Yotsuba-san~"

"That...that's because..."

Sayaka's delicate body trembled slightly, and her face flushed red instantly.

She couldn't make up any more stories and didn't know how to answer.

You can't exactly tell Erika that she was unable to walk because she slept with Mahiro all night, and that she only took two days off because she was too tired, can you?

"Alright, Erica-chan, Mibu-senpai is already quite troubled, and the competition is about to begin."

"That's right, the next match is Makoto's, I suggest you don't miss it."

"Yes, yes, I think with Makoto's strength, he will definitely win the match decisively!"

Miyuki, Kitayama, and Honoka all spoke up to help Sayaka out of the predicament.

Seeing this, Erika had no choice but to give up for the time being and turn her attention to the competition.

However, one thing she was certain of was that something definitely happened between Sayaka and Mahiro.

Although she had already guessed, she still wanted to hear Sayaka describe it herself if possible.

After all, that's what makes it more interesting.

"By the way, elder brother, do you know what kind of magic Masato will use to participate in the competition?"

"...I'm sorry, Miyuki, I can't guess either."

Faced with Miyuki's question, Tatsuya could only shake his head regretfully.

As far as he knew, Yotsuba Mahiro was proficient in a wide variety of magic, covering all systems.

There are countless spells applicable to "ice pillar offense and defense".

Examples include Blazing God Realm, Ice Mist God Realm, Ice Flame Hell, Vocaloid Shot, Cloud Dispersion and Mist Dissipation, etc.

Even Maya Yotsuba's meteor shower, and his mass burst!

Although the latter is a strategic-level spell, the tournament did not specify the spell level of "Ice Pillar Offense and Defense".

Given Yotsuba Mahiro's uninhibited personality, she is absolutely capable of using strategic-level magic in public.

Chapter 47 You guys can't take a joke, can you?

Amidst the eager anticipation of the audience, the men's preliminary round of "Ice Pillar Attack and Defense" began.

but--

"Hey, hey, hey, is this for real?!"

"That's... a magic craftsman?"

"No way, are you kidding me?!"

...

The audience's doubts echoed throughout the arena; they were almost ready to demand refunds.

Even Erica and the others were speechless when they saw it.

"I mean, why did Yotsuba wear this outfit to the competition? It's so ironic."

"Indeed, but it has a lot of Mahiro's style."

Then, Yotsuba Mahiro, wearing a technical team jacket, stepped onto the stage.

"Ice Pillar Attack and Defense" differs from other competitions in that participants can wear morale-boosting clothing on stage, so most people wear their favorite outfits, and it even turned into a fashion show at one point.

But the fact that someone was dressed as an engineer was a first in the history of the Nine Schools Tournament.

There was nothing he could do; he hadn't brought any other clothes besides his school uniform, and he was too lazy to change.

"George, it seems he's the temporary engineer from No. 1 High School."

"Yes, I've done my research. This person is called Yotsuba Mahiro, and he's supposedly an outcast of the Yotsuba family. As for Masaaki, I estimate he'll be your biggest opponent in the 'Ice Pillar Offense and Defense' competition."

"I know."

Ichijo Hikaru's response was calm, but his gaze toward the figure on the field was very serious.

The Yotsuba family of magicians, the most mysterious of the ten magician clans...

At the same time, the senior students from No. 9 High School on the stage also looked terrible, their faces turning red and then pale.

To actually compete on the same stage with someone like a magician who isn't even a contestant...

"You're seriously underestimating me! I'll make you regret it and pay the price for looking down on me!!!"

"?"

What is this guy babbling about over there?!

Without further ado, the moment the match officially began, before the opponent could even react, Yotsuba Mahiro pulled out Night Demon and aimed it at the opposite side of the field.

Then pull the trigger.

—"Multiple Observations"—

—"Multi-casting"—

—"The clouds disperse and the fog clears," activate!

Even before the audience could react, the twelve ice pillars on the opposite side of the field had been completely decomposed into molecular dust.

The icy fog jolted the players from No. 9 High School awake, but it was already too late.

The announcement that the match has ended has been made.

"what happened?"

"have no idea...."

"That engineer seems pretty strong..."

The audience members in the seats were completely bewildered; none of them understood what was happening.

"...That's it?"

"Well, it's over."

"...Shinhime, you're amazing..."

Erika, Kitayama, Honoka, Sayaka, and Mizuki looked at each other in bewilderment.

No one could have imagined that the game would end in less than ten seconds after it started.

They didn't even see what happened clearly; all they knew was that the icicles on the other side's field disappeared in an instant.

Just like the car accident I encountered on the way here, it was disintegrated cleanly and decisively.

Even the upcoming matches will be the same.

Instant kill!

Instant kill!

Still an instant kill!

No one could withstand ten seconds in front of Yotsuba Mahiro, or destroy an ice pillar, even with "intelligence enhancement" to reinforce it.

Miyuki covered her mouth in surprise.

Unexpectedly, Brother Zhenxun used "Clouds Disperse and Mist Vanishes" in full view of everyone...

But only in this way can she be the Yotsuba Mahiro she envisions.

He never cares about other people's opinions; he will eliminate any opponent without mercy.

As expected, after several preliminary rounds, the committee received complaints from other universities.

The Supreme Court has filed a complaint against Yotsuba Mahiro for violating regulations by using magic of mass destruction.

The committee members were all ashamed upon hearing this.

The "Ice Pillar Offense and Defense" project doesn't restrict magic at all; as long as you can do it, you can even use strategic-level magic without any problem.

But they couldn't withstand the joint complaints from eight universities.

Therefore, the committee notified the First High School of its deliberations.

"So, the so-called result of the discussion is that I can no longer use 'Clouds Disperse and Mist Vanish' in the upcoming matches?"
