DanMachi: Unlimited Blade Works

Standing on the dilapidated hillside, Shirou gazed into the distance at the location of Hagun Academy. With his Clairvoyance, Shirou clearly saw the scene there: Stella, defeated by Ouma Kurogane and knocked unconscious by Touka Toudou and sent away. Shizuku and Ikki, who went to rescue Nagi Arisu after he was defeated and sent away. The Hagun Academy Student Council, who engaged the attackers from Akatsuki Academy where they stood, all defeated except for Touka Toudou.

Everything was under Shirou's observation.

"Although they're using fantasy forms, aren't they underestimating Hagun Academy too much?"

"It seems they need a lesson, don't they?" Shirou wasn't heartbroken by Hagun Academy's plight. After all, this attack was merely to publicize Akatsuki Academy's existence; all their attacks used a fantasy mode and had no killing intent. Therefore, in Shirou's opinion, this was merely a training exercise. As for stopping their actions?

Shirou had no such intention. Even though he had learned of this attack from Edelweiss beforehand.

The existence of Akatsuki Academy and its members was the best whetstone for Stella, Ikki, and the others. After all, this world wasn't that safe. Strong individuals emerged endlessly around the world. Therefore, in the safe environment of the school, where lives would not be affected in any way, striving for growth was the best course of action. After all, Shirou, as a world traveler, couldn't protect them forever. Therefore, they needed to improve their strength, the stronger the better. And the Seven Stars Sword-Art Festival with Akatsuki Academy's involvement was the best stage.

But now, looking at the fallen students and teachers, and the destroyed school through Clairvoyance, Shirou felt a bit uncomfortable. After all, his time living at Hagun Academy wasn't false. Everything here bore his mark.

Looking at these friends, Shirou was indeed a little angry.

"With Director Kurono Shinguuji around, no matter how much the school is damaged, it's just a minor issue, right?" Recalling Kurono Shinguuji's ability, Shirou smiled, then pulled out his student handbook and dialed Student Council President Touka Toudou's student handbook.

________________________________________

On the battlefield of Hagun Academy. Only a little over ten minutes had passed since the battle began. But among the Hagun Academy Student Council executives, only Touka Toudou remained standing on the battlefield.

"You should give up by now, shouldn't you?"

"...!" Ouma Kurogane said impatiently to Touka Toudou, whose face was filled with regret. Touka Toudou was different from the others; she didn't have a single scratch on her. But this wasn't because she had fought Ouma Kurogane to a standstill. After Touka Toudou let Stella and the others escape, considering the strength of the remaining members, she believed only she could handle Ouma Kurogane, so she actively challenged him.

However, Ouma Kurogane put away his Noble Art, the Dragon's Claw, and was completely defenseless against Touka. He even said, "I'm not interested in raising my sword against a woman weaker than me. If you want to spar with me that badly, then one strike. As long as you can wound me with one strike, I'll spar with you." So Ouma Kurogane folded his arms, closed his eyes, and stood straight. His calm expression seemed to say: A knight of your level isn't worth my attention.

Touka Toudou saw his actions, and to say she wasn't a bit angry would be a lie. But conversely, Touka Toudou could also use his arrogance and disdain. Ouma Kurogane had easily repelled Stella. His strength was undeniable.

And now he was completely defenseless before her blade.

She absolutely could not easily miss this opportunity.

Among the enemy ranks, Ouma Kurogane was the greatest threat; she must defeat him with all her might while he was off guard. Touka Toudou unhesitatingly unleashed her ultimate Noble Art, Raimei, slashing at the unarmed Ouma Kurogane. This strike was perfect in every aspect: power, drawing stance, angle, and speed.

But Touka Toudou made only one miscalculation. That was, Ouma Kurogane's arrogance stemmed from the absolute difference in strength between him and Touka Toudou. Even if Raimei directly hit Ouma Kurogane's body, it still couldn't harm a single hair on him. In these ten minutes, no matter how many times Touka Toudou tried, the result was the same. At most, it would slightly tear Ouma Kurogane's clothes, not even scratching his skin. The recoil from the slash felt like a mountain. This sensation was too heavy, as if swinging a sword at a giant mountain.

"What is this abnormal defense?!" In battles between Blazers, such phenomena do occur. But that only happens when there's a vast difference in the amount of magic power between the two sides. "But the amount of magic power between me and Ouma Kurogane shouldn't be that different!" Touka Toudou thought to herself. Although she couldn't understand the situation before her, Touka Toudou had no time to continue thinking. She was the only one left on her side; she had to achieve something.

"I can only use that incomplete ultimate technique!"

Take-Mikazuchi, an electromagnetic railgun attack that turns the surroundings into a magnetic field and launches herself like a projectile. This move was still incomplete; using it rashly would endanger her life. But now she couldn't care about that anymore.

"Hmph, still not giving up? Open your eyes and see clearly. My training method is too different from yours; you were never my opponent from the start," Ouma Kurogane said calmly, sensing her resolve.

"That remains to be seen!" Just as Touka Toudou was about to unleash this ultimate technique, her student handbook suddenly rang. Stopping her movements, Touka Toudou stared at Ouma Kurogane and slowly took out her student handbook. Seeing that the other party had no intention of stopping her, she answered the call.

Immediately, Shirou's voice came through.

"Hello, hello, Touka-senpai? I'm watching you from afar!"

"For now, it's best if you don't make any more moves.

Quickly find a way to move your companions' bodies away; my attack will arrive soon!"

"Wait!" But unfortunately, Shirou didn't heed Touka Toudou's call and hung up directly. Then he projected the Noble Art Oboro Zukiyo (Hazy Moon) and Stella's Hi-Ryuzume (Crimson Princess).

"If I'm going for destructive power, a fire-element greatsword is indeed better, isn't it?"

"This should be the most destructive Fantasy Collapse in a normal version!" Turning the Hi-Ryuzume in his hand into an arrow, he notched it on the bowstring and slowly drew it, aiming towards Hagun Academy. "Since Hagun Academy is already heavily damaged, let's damage it even more severely!"

"Fantasy Collapse!" As Shirou's finger loosened, the crimson arrow instantly flew out, then arced in crimson and plunged towards Hagun Academy.

"Hello, hello! Emiya-kun!" Hearing the "beep-beep-beep" sound from the other end, Touka Toudou's hairs instantly stood on end. Emiya-kun's attack?

Two images immediately flashed in Touka Toudou's mind: The hundred-kilometer shot in Oku-tama, and the shot that destroyed a training ground in his duel with Kanata. With quick decision-making, Touka Toudou's speed instantly reached its maximum as she rushed towards her companions.

To avoid hurting others during the battle, the teachers and students who were attacked by Akatsuki Academy earlier had already been moved to the side. Therefore, at this time, only the other four members of their student council needed to be moved.

"What are you planning to do?" Seeing Touka Toudou about to run, Ouma Kurogane frowned, displeased, and immediately swung his sword. But at that moment, Shinomiyya Amane on the side suddenly shouted, "Ignore her, an attack is coming!"

"Ouma! Protect us!"

"What?" Before Ouma Kurogane could react, he saw the attack descending from the sky. The dazzling crimson even stained the sky. Sensing a life-or-death crisis, Ouma Kurogane's expression suddenly changed. "Quickly come

here!"

"Fuujin Barrier!"
