Chapter 105

After Misawa Daichi accepted the challenge, the Amazoness female warriors pushed over a huge throne.

The throne landed on the ground with a boom, kicking up a lot of dust; subsequently, the Empress casually stuck her great blade beside her feet, sat down right there, and waited quietly.

"Go for it, Misawa!"

"Misawa, everyone is counting on you!!!"

The surrounding students, whether they knew him or were from other schools, were all excitedly calling Misawa Daichi's name at this time; even those who didn't know him at all couldn't help but cheer for Misawa.

If he wins, they can directly get a 4-star seal; isn't that much more convenient than spending time here going through all kinds of tests?

This isn't some pervert in love with a spirit; this is a great philanthropist!

The Empress also sat on the throne, waiting quietly.

Don't think it was an idea she mentioned casually; as the leader of a zone, all her duels must be carefully thought out.

Don't think that "choosing 4 warriors to duel" means you can just pick any four.

This is also full of "tests" for Misawa Daichi.

Wanting to be a diplomat is not that simple.

First is the first point.

The opponent you choose might not accept your invitation, might not be willing to participate in such a large-scale duel; if the other party is unwilling, how should you respond?

"Empress, can you participate in the competition as the duelist on your side?"

"Oh, the first target you choose is me? Then, state your reason."

"You should be the strongest spirit warrior in this camp, so to have an exciting, wonderful duel, naturally you cannot be missing."

"Ha, good. I agree."

The Empress didn't waste any words.

This is also the second point she considered.

Namely, "level of excitement."

What kind of duel can be called wonderful?

Is it powerful monsters? Is it a clash of wisdom?

Regardless, there is always one key point, and that is that it must absolutely not be "boring."

If Misawa Daichi just found 4 students to duel to get by, then he would absolutely fail on this point.

But—

Choosing her was a very wise decision.

Because as the leader of the "opposing side," she would certainly be happy to win to end Misawa Daichi's "whimsical idea."

However, if the duel were one-sided, it certainly wouldn't be interesting either.

"Hikari." Misawa Daichi didn't talk nonsense either; everything was understood without words.

A brother's happiness and future need your support!

"Ha... no problem." Tenjou Hikari responded.

"Ha, as expected!"

"Oh ho, Tenjou Hikari, it's Tenjou Hikari! We're saved!"

Some students from the Fusion Department who were following the Tyler sisters couldn't help but cheer when they saw this.

Even the Tyler sisters couldn't help but nod, expressing their approval.

They knew Tenjou Hikari's strength best.

The Empress raised her eyebrows, observing Tenjou Hikari.

Such trust, and accepting so easily, and the humans around didn't have any doubts either.

It seems this human warrior has a very high reputation among humans.

But—

The next candidate had a problem.

Misawa Daichi looked at Tania, and then glanced at the Amazoness Warrior Chief.

If he followed his own thoughts, these two people couldn't be chosen.

Because of [Repetition].

Thinking and thinking, his eyes suddenly lit up.

He immediately took out his deck, quickly swish-swish-swished to find a card, and a moment later, pointed at a card and whispered: "Teacher, I need your help with something."

Following his call, a white-bearded old man slowly floated onto the field.

Mathematician!

Misawa Daichi's "teacher" and partner.

"Ho ho ho, Daichi, have you encountered trouble?"

"I need your help, Teacher." Misawa nodded, then turned to the Empress and said, "Empress, Mathematician Teacher is my partner; he is a spirit I met in the Village of the Spellcasters.

You said, I have to choose 4 warriors [other than myself] to duel, regardless of human or spirit identity, right?"

"That's right."

"Then, Mathematician Teacher is also a spirit present, so he can participate too!"

"Ha, you chose such a roundabout method? Ha, so, in the end, you still want to fight with your friend and our Amazoness warriors?"

"No!" Misawa Daichi's mouth curled up, "I hope Mathematician Teacher will team up with you to duel, how about that!!"

"What?!" Everyone was taken aback.

Because Misawa's choice was very outrageous.

Who sends their own people to the other side?

Furthermore, what if he deliberately plays dirty and loses on purpose?

Aren't these all problems?

The Empress looked at Misawa Daichi's confident smile and realized his thoughts.

With the increase in dimensional exploration, what is the biggest problem between spirits and humans?

It is misunderstanding and distrust.

If the Mathematician stood on her side and did his best to duel, then the Empress would have no reason to refute Misawa Daichi's "ideal."

"Good, I agree." The Empress looked at the Mathematician and nodded gently at him, "Hello, respected magician."

"Ho ho ho, then I'll trouble you." The old magician pushed his glasses gently and responded.

Then, it was time to choose the final candidate, which was Tenjou Hikari's teammate.

Misawa Daichi looked at the students.

This certainly had to be a student.

Spirit and spirit, human and human—such teams are more reasonable.

Following Misawa's gaze, Serena raised her hand high, jumping up and down, very excited.

She certainly wanted to team up with her master to duel.

She hadn't even had a tag duel in the Spirit World yet, so of course she wanted to participate.

However, Misawa quickly skipped over her and looked to the other side.

Gloria was hugging her arms, watching the show, and then saw Misawa Daichi's gaze turn over; she hadn't reacted yet, but her sister's eyes immediately lit up, and she raised her hand high: "Yes, yes, yes! Sister Gloria wants to participate, yes!"

While saying this, Grace also used both hands to push her sister's back, pushing her forward.

Gloria was pushed forward by her sister, and in her panic, she also blushed slightly, shouting her sister's name: "Grace!?"

"Cough cough—" Misawa Daichi coughed twice, "Miss Gloria, how about you team up with Hikari? You also use an Amazoness deck, right?"

"Oh, a warrior who uses Amazoness?" The Empress looked at Gloria and immediately understood Misawa Daichi's intention.

Reasonable.

Very reasonable.

But in reality—there was an even more reasonable reason.

Among the students here, besides ordinary students, there were many Fusion Department students following the Tyler sisters; they were students who hadn't left the Fusion Department even after Akaba Leo lost power. If only Tenjou Hikari went on stage, it would be difficult to gain their "approval."

Therefore, the Tyler sisters were necessary!

He had been a bit worried, thinking they might not accept, but looking at the Tyler sisters' appearance, it seemed quite easy.

"Sister also feels bored, right? Fighting others together with Tenjou Hikari should also be very interesting."

"Grace!!" Gloria's face turned even redder.

"I'm giving the opportunity to sister, you know; otherwise, let me come?" Grace tapped her face gently with her finger.

"...Forget it—" Gloria slowly straightened her face, took a deep breath, and looked at Tenjou Hikari, "Ha, Tenjou Hikari, don't drag me down!"

She returned to her previous dashing appearance, stepped on the training ground floor, and hung a smile.

Tenjou Hikari curled his lips slightly, watching her stand there straight.

In short—

Both sides had decided.

"The rules for tag dueling, everyone should be clear, right?" The Empress spoke.

Everyone nodded.

"Then—come on, warriors!"

"Oh oh oh oh!!!"

Accompanied by the cheers of the Amazoness female warriors, the forest began to tremble violently, lions and tigers began to howl at the sky, and flames lit up all the lights in the camp.

Gloria & Tenjou Hikari LP: 8000.

Empress & Mathematician LP: 8000.
