My Multisystem In Isekai-193 Chapter 193
"It is like a knighting ceremony for the knights. It is a kind of ceremony for bloodline returning to its origin; true awakening in other words. Only the ones with the purest bloodlines and the ones who had managed to develop their bloodlines to the extreme had these patterns on their bodies in the past. Alas it has been a long time since that family vanished. It is nice to see that someone capable is carrying on the torch."
Rachel who had previously been dissatisfied with the match finally had a smile on her face as if this was what she had been waiting for. Her excitement overwhelmed her emotions momentarily but she was back to normal soon. But this time, there was a relaxed smile on her face as if she was already aware of the outcome of the match with the appearance of the tattoo on Shiranui's body. She knew something about the effects of the golden pattern as was evident from the mysterious smile on her face as if she knew exactly what was about to transpire in the field.
Zavier had activated his Time space eye and had focused the entirety of his vision at Shiranui who was burning golden at the moment. He wanted to make sure that it wasn't something that would be harmful to her. If at any moment he felt that the golden flame might harm her, he was determined to pull her out of the match even if she was going to hate him for it for the rest of their lives.
But what he found was quite contrary to his fears. Just like he had found a powerful blood colored force inside of Gabby and his two teammates, he could feel a special force inside Shiranui that was emanating from her womb and was spreading throughout that body. It was as if it was stimulating that golden pattern to emerge onto her body.
At the same time, the mana channels in her body began to expand slightly allowing for a faster flow of mana and a higher capacity. It felt as if Shiranui was advancing to a higher level; her bloodline was improving itself by returning to its essence. ƒ𝒓e𝐞we𝚋𝙣o𝚟𝚎𝘭.co𝙢
The energy responsible for this was neither as nefarious as he had expected because even the energy of the elixir had caused so much pain to Rebecca and nor was it like the one he had found in the bodies of the bloodline trio. Instead it was soothing to the eyes as if just looking at it was making him feel at peace. This was a calm and peaceful energy that was helping her advance in the gentlest means possible.
Although Zavier could tell that it was something that was beneficial for Shiranui, he had to make sure of it. He couldn't come to a conclusion based on his incomplete knowledge of this world. Therefore, he turned to Calista and asked her in an inquisitive manner to hide the worries in his heart.
"I don't think that I have seen such a force before as well. It is my first time witnessing something like that. Maybe it is some form of bloodline force. I can't tell for sure."
Even Calista didn't know what it was. How was Zavier supposed to know about such energy? The heart that he had barely managed to calm down was jumping about like a fish out of water. He could barely hold himself back from rushing to her. He had to at least wait until the conclusion to determine whether it was good or bad for her in the truest sense.
It was not just Calista who was ignorant about this unknown power that Shiranui was displaying right now. Wallice who was on the other side of the audience seating was facing the same dilemma. When Gabby asked her about it, she was embarrassed to find that she had nothing to say to him at all; after all, he was just as clueless as he was.
There had been so many twists and turns in the competition and both sides had been so tenacious that Wallice couldn't help but see the two participants in a different light. One had undergone evolution in the middle of the fight while the other had refused to give up at the precipice of death. Both were as stubborn as rocks but she couldn't help but appreciate their strength on the inside.
Shiranui who was still in the field and was feeling like a phoenix that had burst into flames, felt the true horror of the flames that were flowing out of her like an endless cascading waterfall.
Her mana channels were being overloaded by the huge amount of golden flames erupting from her body. It was too strong for her to exercise her will over it. The flame couldn't be controlled with her measly strength. The ferocity of the golden flame akin to the wrath of a divine entity when compared to the dark flame that she was able to control at will.
Shiranui was feeling like a blast furnace at the moment that had reached the end of her days and was about to burst apart into a thousand pieces. The golden flame inside her wanted to wreak havoc everywhere by escaping her confines but Shiranui had been doing her best to hold it back.
But like a broken dam, her body gave way and the flame spread outwards in the field uncontrollably. The field was scorched in random places as the flame wasn't spreading evenly with her as the epicentre. It was completely random which made it harder for Rebecca to dodge it.
Rebecca could instantly sense danger from the golden flames despite her newfound strength. She felt that the burn marks from that flame wouldn't go away for a lifetime which was the reason that she didn't even try to attack in this situation. She focused on escaping the creeping flames no matter what.
Unfortunately for her, the randomness and the sheer number of flames encroaching towards her was so huge that she found herself caught by the inevitability of her fate.
The flames stuck to her body like a piece of gum and a scalding pain coursed through her body even though she had covered herself with her diamond skin.
The diamond skin on her body glowed brighter as she launched laser after laser from her diamond exterior to get rid of the flames that were eating away at her diamond body like she was made up of firewood instead.
The lasers harmlessly passed through the flame and didn't do anything to save her from the bone scraping pain that was torturing her constantly. Nothing worked against the golden flames. Rebecca wondered whether the flames even needed air to burn continuously. She had a feeling that the flames wouldn't extinguish even after she was dead and cremated.
Finally, her diamond skin was unable to take it anymore and began to melt as if it was petty ore instead of the hardest substance in the world. The pain of being burnt alive was not something that people could imagine just because they knew what being burnt was like. Only those burning together could actually sympathize with each other.
Therefore, Rebecca was truly alone in this ordeal and knowing that only made it harder for her to bear. The smell of burnt flesh and hair assaulted her nostrils and made her want to gag but the fact that it was her own flesh that was melting terrified her beyond her capacity. She began to scream hysterically from the soul tearing pain that made her want to forget all her ambitions and dreams in order to survive past this ordeal.
The audience too came to their senses at that time. Those who knew that Shiranui had the Yamata pattern and were looking forward to the result of the battle finally understood how terrifying it truly was. The golden flame was hotter than their wildest imaginations. At the same time they understood that Shiranui had unlimited potential. She had only just awakened the power of the Yamata bloodline but she was already capable of throwing out so much raw power even if her control over her ability was currently too weak to call it her own power.
Calista realized that the Yamata bloodline power inside Shiranui had gone rogue and started to prepare for an intervention on her behalf lest she end up killing her opponent by mistake. She might not only be a danger to Rebecca but she might also end up harming herself because of her poor control. There was a chance that the compressed flame inside her body would burst apart if she tried to suppress all that power that she was barely able to release.
Shiranui had always been her best student. Even after Calista had met Zavier, she had still always called Shiranui her best student. The reason was that Shiranui was unlike the monster that Zavier was. She was a hard working student who was both obedient and talented unlike Zavier who was neither of them and had huge secrets around his existence. As soon as he revealed himself, he was already at the top. For a moment he had displayed strength that exceeded even that of Calista and Valerie.
