Kamisama no Kago wo Kyohishitara?! Chapter 578

578 Unrivaled Explanation

 

Queen shot five arrows in quick succession. Aimed straight at the challenger.
Those arrows can't possibly just fly straight. They're probably gonna keep chasing the challenger even if he dodges.
Either that, or they're gonna keep flying towards the targets behind him, his only option is to stop them. The same reason why they both haven't moved away from their initial spots.
A wall of wind struck down those arrows. Must be a strong strike seeing the arrows snapped in two when they hit the ground.

(This will keep going on forever... Wonder if they have any more plans? Hm...m?)

But then, that impression all the audience held got easily overturned. After all, Dyudo's targets have been struck by arrows.
From the opposite direction of Queen at that. Yep, they've pierced the targets from behind.

Dyudo couldn't process this right away. His eyes were wide open like he couldn't believe it.
Three targets have been shot. If the challenger can't shoot more targets, it'll be his defeat.
But their clash earlier showed neither could make their arrows hit. Dyudo's victory is all but sealed by this point.

Yet, he chose to shoot all his remaining arrows at Queen.
It was all in vain. As all of them were blocked. He has no path to victory now.
He actually still got throwing knives but he raised his hands and surrendered.
The announcer declared match's over.

"That's iiiiiiiiiiiit! Is there a bottom to queen's strength! I have absolutely no idea how her arrows managed to strike the targets from behind! Yet it's the reality thrust before us! It's Black Wind Queen's victory!"

Cheers erupted as the entire audience did a standing ovation. The entire arena shook from the sheer volume.
It gradually died down. And before I realized, an interviewer?, with a mic-like object in his hand approached Black Wind Queen.

"May we have a word from our victor. Could you tell us how you shot through those targets in the end? I believe that's one question everybody here shares on their mind."

Is he stupid? Revealing your cards here is akin to putting herself on a guillotine. It's suicidal.
Yet I was surprised to find queen quietly gave an explanation with a clear beautiful voice.

"As I am sure you are all aware of. I'm an elf. My challenger may be a user of wind magic, but he's still human. This gap alone is vast. There is practically no way to overcome it."

"Dare I say that's the key to your victory?"

"Wind magic and spirit magic may look similar, however they're not one and the same. That would be the deciding factor indeed. I would have handily won if not for his skill. The fact that I had to resort to this decoy tactic in order to find an opening is proof of his strength being real."

"And when was that opening exactly? How did you make it happen?"

"The last five arrows were decoys aimed to create an opening. All the clashes we had so far was for the sake of drawing his attention to me."

"But that doesn't explain where and how those arrows flew from."

"They were the three initial arrows I shot."

"...Didn't those fall out of the ring?"

"Those arrows never touched the ground. They did get repelled outside, but I had spirits to keep them afloat. I made him believe those were dead arrows that had lost their power. I covered them up."

By this point it's clear Spirit Magic is unrivaled. Challenger Dyudo who had been listening stared into the distance and muttered 'How could I win'.
This truth knocked everybody here off their socks.

"So you made those arrows flew and struck the targets from behind in the end! An ending made while your opponent was fully focused on you! Am I correct or what!"

The interviewer couldn't hold back his excitement.
Queen resumed.

"Wind magic will not persist if you stop funneling your mana. It won't activate against once your mana has been cut off. But Spirit Magic does not work like that. It is possible to control spirits remotely. That's the gap between us he can never overcome."

"Thank you very much for your time! Your next challengers may refer to this in their quest to one up you. Do you have any comment on that?"

"May be so, however, I don't believe there is anyone capable of taking me down for some time still. I'd gladly accept it if that time ever comes to pass, as that will mark the birth of a new hero of this city."

"The queen still reigns supreme! Yet she blesses those who rise up to the challenge! Such a broad heart our queen has! We offer you our thanks for the performance today! Congratulations on your victory!"

Once the interview ended, the queen elegantly made her way out of the ring.
