Editing Hagure Yuusha no Aesthetica:Volume 1 Chapter 4 (section)

===Part 3===
 
The combat training was about to start. Standing 5 meters away from Akatsuki, Onizuka secretly considered. Although it was different from his original plan, the results were still acceptable.
 
Onizuka looked behind Akatsuki. The second arena and the first arena were only separated by a layer of wall. On the other side was the first arena, which should be currently holding a battle exercise regarding team training, including the trio Ousawa Miu, Doumoto Kuzuha and Izumi Chikage. Onizuka originally thought that Akatsuki would form a team with these people and participate in the training, so he specially prepared a big present for him.
But this was still good. Anyway Onizuka did not have a favorable impression towards Akatsuki’s sister Ousawa Miu, the arrogant kid Doumoto Kuzuha and the self-centered Izumi Chikage. Letting them receive a bit of punishment wasn’t bad.
 
Onizuka gaze moved from the wall onto Akatsuki.
 
“Fuaaa…”
 
Akatsuki yawned lazily. Onizuka couldn’t stop snickering. He wanted to see how long Akatsuki could act without care.
 
The model sword used for practice was very blunt, there was no lethality at all, and most importantly Akatsuki could not use magic.
 
He was certain that he would win.
 
…Yes, certain for victory.
 
Thus, Onizuka began to concentrate, and silently waited for the instant that the duel began.
 
The cold mechanical sound spread throughout the entire second arena, announcing that the combat skill training had begun. Onizuka immediately released his pent up consciousness and in that instant—
 
“—”
 
After the muffled bang, Akatsuki was enveloped in flames. Instead of calling it a surprise attack, you could call it taking the initiative. That is because before the mechanical sound rang and declared that the combat skills training had begun, Onizuka had secretly begun to chant magic, cancelling the magic circle and the opening of the defense barrier, and caught Akatsuki off guard with an attack. This type of powerful attack far exceeding training — No, the course’s level, made everyone suddenly enter a state of commotion.
 
“—Ha…Ha ha ha! I win!”
 
Onizuka didn’t care and opened his mouth to laugh loudly. He did not care about the gaze of the others. Defeating the arrogant guy in front of him was what was urgent. Since he could not use magic, which meant it was impossible for him to cast a magic defence, Onizuka was sure of his victory.
 
After waiting for the fire to die out, he should naturally see an unconscious Akatsuki.
 
No, it should be an unconscious Akatsuki lying on the floor helplessly.
 
Onizuka bent his waist, pressed his forehead and continued to laugh loudly.
 
“Haha, Ha ha ha —“
 
“—!”
 
Onizuka’s consciousness suddenly stopped. He could not understand the phenomenon in front of his eyes, He only understood that his eyes clearly saw an unharmed Akatsuki standing at the original spot, as if nothing had happened.
 
Akatsuki hummed then glanced at Onizuka.
 
“— Using a surprise attack isn’t bad, but unfortunately I had long seen through it.”
 
“W.Waaaaaaaaooohhh—!”
 
Onizuka screamed out as he felt a sense of fear he had never experienced before. The AD on his wrist immediately reacted, and in Onizuka’s hands appeared four pieces of chakram, which he threw with Akatsuki as the target.
 
The chakram pieced through the air and proceeded in an irregular path, and headed to Akatsuki from all directions. Only to see Akatsuki swing the model sword to defend against the chakram.
 
“—“
 
The model sword bounced off the first two Chakram, but the amazing act hadn’t finished yet. The chakram that were bounced off changed their path and crashed into each other, then bounced off in midair and crashed with the other chakram, creating a chained crash. After a series of sharp metallic sounds, all the chakram dropped to the floor, and created a circle with Akatsuki in the middle.
 
“A…Ahhhhhh…”
 
Onizuka, who was completely surprised, could not even say a word. His trembling body took a few steps back. Until now, Onizuka understood the other students. He noticed that the man in front of him was not to be provoked. He was an untouchable, dangerous person. Unfortunately Onizuka was too late, and Akatsuki had already spoken:
 
“—So is it over now? Then it’s my turn.”
 
After saying this, Akatsuki suddenly shortened the distance.
 
“—!”
 
Hurriedly, Onizuka subconsciously created a fire wall in front of him to hide himself.
 
Blocked—Just as Onizuka felt relieved, the fire wall was cut opened by Akatsuki’s model sword.
 
…How is this possible…?
 
Onizuka, who was continuously contemplating, only realized that Akatsuki was swinging down the model sword towards his head.
 
The feedback of the impact was accompanied by a slight shock. Akatsuki’s sword made a crisp contact sound under the straight slash. After carrying the model sword on his shoulders, Akatsuki slowly said:
 
“Hey—Onizuka, are you okay?”
 
Akatsuki sighed, shaking his head, and looked down at the classmate who was lying down on the floor, unmoving.
Looking at the unconscious Onizuka, Akatsuki scratched his face and regretted slightly. He had not expected that the winner would be decided that fast; it felt that something was missing. Once he thought that his own training course was over, he felt unsatisfied. At this moment, Akatsuki suddenly noticed one thing.
 
“Oh, looks like it can’t withstand it.”
 
Cracks appeared on the model sword.
 
Akatsuki sighed. Every time he used Renkan Keikikou, there would always be such an aftereffect. By inserting his body’s ki into the weapon, not only would it achieve the effect of the person and the sword becoming one will, the ki would also increase the durability and sharpness of the blade. But a body that was enhanced by Renkan Keikikou had amazing power, and during a battle, it would cause a great burden to the weapons. The result was that the model sword’s durability could not keep up with Akatsuki’s ki and his body’s strength—in other words, it could not keep up with Renkan Keikikou, and in the end it was shattered.
 
…If only I could use this toy. I really want to try it out.
 
Akatsuki looked at the AD he was wearing. The AD was a magic tool that the Babel was proud of, it could match the user’s ability and talents, and materialize the most suitable weapon. If the effects of AD were really that good, Akatsuki could safely combine his sword techniques with Renkan Keikikou’s power, just like the previous duel with Galious. Having the mentality of wanting to try once again, Akatsuki, again, focused his awareness to the AD, but it was still in vain. No matter how much effort Akatsuki used, the AD did not react at all.
 
“…It couldn’t be that this was already broken right?”
 
Akatsuki muttered to himself, then suddenly noticed that Onizuka, who was lying prone to the floor, also wore an AD. Akatsuki could not help but think, since the training is over, it should be okay if I borrow it, right. Thus, Akatsuki took off Onizuka’s AD, wore it on his hand, and tried to materialize his weapon.
 
“Mmmm….?”
 
The situation changed a little. Before, the AD did not give any response, but after wearing Onizuka’s AD, his right hand actually had a few light particles appearing. Unfortunately, the light particles only floated in mid-air, and did not form a concrete weapon.
 
This tiny change made Akatsuki further confirm his own judgment. Thus, he took off his own AD, and attempted to materialize his weapon again, fully expecting that he would soon master the trick. But Akatsuki frowned because the AD did not give any response.
 
“It can’t be, could it be malfunctioning again?”
 
…Could the problem be within my body?”
 
Akatsuki did not believe that he himself had a special constitution, the only difference he had compared to the others was probably Renkan Keikikou. While using Renkan Keikikou, his constitution would definitely become abnormal. But in the morning, while learning how to materialize a weapon, Akatsuki did not activate Renkan Keikikou, and the result still ended in failure. Even if he activated Renkan Keikikou, he still could not materialize the weapon. The instructor had insisted that materialization did not require magic, but it would only be a difficult task for people who cannot use magic. This problem had exceeded the range Akatsuki could solve, so Akatsuki could not help but feel worried.
 
“…Ah? Wait a minute?”
 
Regarding the tiny change that was created previously, Akatsuki suddenly thought of another possibility. His sight fell onto his own AD.
 
At this moment, a huge impact suddenly came from the nearby first arena.
 
And sounds of screams.
 
“Looks like they are having a lot of fun. Ahhh, I knew I should have gone off with them.”
 
After a sigh, Akatsuki began to try out the possibility that he had just thought of.
