Nightmiya Sou stood alone on the training grounds of the Magic Club, turning a map between his fingers, his eyebrows slightly furrowed. His mind replayed the battle scenes from earlier - Onimaru Setsura's overwhelming power, Oudo Saya's decisive actions, Hakuran's defeat, Mitou Karuma's injuries... The Magic Club had been cornered.
"Nightmiya."
A voice broke the silence. Hakuran approached, his wounds hastily bandaged, but his eyes still held traces of frustration. Lowering his voice, he said, "Our tactics... they were completely seen through by Onimaru Setsura."
"Wrong."
Nightmiya Sou tucked his card back into his sleeve and turned around, his gaze sharp as a blade. "It's not about tactics. The real problem is that we have no way to break through 'Gokuretsu.'"
Leaning against the wall, Mitou Karuma let out a dry laugh. "So? What's your plan? This guy is a warrior specially designed for 'Shattering Illusions'. Our greatest advantage as the Magic Club is nothing but a joke in front of him."
"If we can't change the rules, then..." Nightmiya's eyes shone with a calm, calculated madness. A massive chessboard was already forming in his mind.
-The Magic Club could no longer play defence.
-This time, they would take control of the battlefield!
The battle in the Dragon Fang Arena had ended, but the flames of war were not yet extinguished. The Magic Club's training grounds were filled with tension. It was clear to everyone - the war between the Five Clubs had reached its decisive moment.
Nightmiya Sou stood in the centre, taking a deep breath as he looked at the members gathered before him. Hakuran, Mitou Karuma, and the other members of the Magic Club - exhaustion lingered on their faces, but their eyes burned with unyielding determination.
"We've been cornered," Nightmiya said in a calm, steady voice. "But that doesn't mean we're going to surrender."
A map flicked between his fingers, catching the dim light.
This battle has only one goal - to shatter 'Gokuretsu' and defeat Onimaru Setsura!
Strategy meeting - How to break 'Gokuretsu'?
"Impossible."
Mitou Karuma leaned back in his chair, his voice carrying both defiance and frustration. "This guy's 'Gokuretsu' can completely destroy illusions. Even the most elaborate deception means nothing against him."
"He's right." Hakuran tapped his wand on the table. "Illusions don't work against him. But... our fighting style isn't limited to illusions."
Nightmiya scanned the room, his sharp gaze sweeping over each member.
"Our goal is not to deceive him with illusions," he explained, "but to turn the battlefield itself into our weapon."
He unfolded a map on the table - a detailed layout of the Dragon Fang Arena, marked with potential ambush points, high ground positions, trap placements and strategic terrain advantages.
"Onimaru Setsura's fighting style is frontal dominance. His 'Gokuretsu' is imbued with 'Anti-Magic Thunderstream', allowing him to instantly annihilate any illusionary constructs. But it also means that he can only destroy magic that has already been activated".
Hakuran's eyes flickered. "...So if we change our illusions before he can destroy them?"
"Exactly." A smirk played on Nightmiya's lips. "His technique destroys fixed illusionary structures. But if we use dynamic illusions, constantly changing our strategies, he will never be able to find the true core of our tactics."
"...Which means," Mitou Karuma murmured, rubbing his chin as the realisation dawned on him, "that we are constantly misleading him, preventing him from ever reaching the real target?"
Nightmiya nodded. "We need to create a multi-layered battlefield that makes it impossible for him to determine where the real battle is taking place."
His fingers tapped the map, marking several key locations - places where they could manipulate lines of sight, alter perceptions and create tactical misdirection.
If we do this right, even Gokuretsu won't be able to destroy everything at once.
Personal preparation - Nightmiya's new trump card?
After the meeting, Hakuran and Mitou Karuma left to undergo specialised training. Meanwhile, Nightmiya Sou remained on the training grounds, turning over his card deck in silent contemplation.
He understood - changing tactics alone would not be enough.
He had to become stronger himself.
Closing his eyes, he remembered the battles he had fought.
Oudo Saya's arrows, Onimaru Setsura's 'Gokuretsu', Shirakawa's sword, Gouzenji Retsu's fists... His opponents were evolving and he couldn't afford to fall behind.
"Nightmiya."
A familiar voice echoed through the dimly lit room.
Nightmiya slowly opened her eyes and turned towards the source - Oudo Saya stood a few paces away, her golden hair shimmering in the dim light. Her violet eyes held a complex, unreadable emotion.
"What is it?" Nightmiya asked evenly.
She looked at him for a long moment before speaking in a low voice.
"...How do you plan to face the war ahead?"
Nightmiya was silent for a moment, then chuckled softly.
"Of course - I plan to win."
Oudo Saya's eyes flickered as if to say more, but in the end she simply gave him a deep, lingering look before turning and walking away.
Nightmiya watched her retreat, an unfamiliar sensation stirring within him.
He knew - this battle wasn't just a matter of the Magic Club's survival.
It was also an inevitable confrontation between him and Oudo Saya.
And he had to be ready.
The latest developments in the war between the Five Clubs!
At the same time, in the domain of the Spear Club, Onimaru Setsura quietly wiped his massive spear, the 'Gokuretsu'. His deep gaze reflected a calm confidence, as if he had already foreseen everything.
"...The Magic Club will not go down without a fight."
He stood. Behind him, the elite members of the Spear Club awaited his orders, their eyes filled with anticipation of the battle to come.
Elsewhere in the Academy, the strongest members of the Sword Club, the Fighting Club and the Archery Club watched closely, knowing that the final clash was imminent.
The countdown to the final battle had begun!
反击的序曲
夜见苍独自站在魔术部的集训场,手中的卡牌在指尖旋转,他的眉头微蹙,脑海中不断回放着刚才的战斗画面.鬼丸刹罗的压制力,凰堂纱夜的决断,白蓝的失利,御堂狩真的受创...魔术部,已被逼入绝境.
"夜见."
白蓝的声音打破了沉默,他身上的伤口已被简单包扎,但眼神中依然带着不甘.他缓缓走近,低声道:"我们的战术...确实被鬼丸刹罗看穿了."
"错."夜见苍将卡牌收回袖口,转过身,目光如刃,"不是战术的问题,而是我们根本没有突破'獄裂'的方式."
御堂狩真靠着墙站着,闻言冷笑一声:"所以,你打算怎么做?对手可是专门'破幻'的战士,我们魔术部的优势在他面前根本就是个笑话."
"如果规则无法改变,那就——改变战场."
夜见苍的眼神透出一丝疯狂的冷静,他的脑海中已经开始勾勒出一张庞大的棋局.
——魔术部,不能再被动防守了.
——这一次,该他们主导战场了!
五社联合会战,正式进入反击阶段!
魔术部的战术调整
龙牙场的战斗已经落幕,但硝烟尚未散去.魔术部的训练场里,气氛紧绷,所有人都知道,这场五社联合会战——已经到了决胜的关键时刻.
夜见苍站在训练场的中央,深吸一口气,看着围坐在自己面前的部员们.白蓝,御堂狩真,还有其他魔术部的成员,每个人脸上都带着战斗后的疲惫,但眼神却燃烧着未熄的斗志.
"我们已经被逼入绝境."夜见苍的声音冷静而沉稳,"但是这并不代表我们会认输."
他缓缓伸出手,指尖一张卡牌翻转,映照出微光.
"这一战,我们的目标只有一个——打破'獄裂',击败鬼丸刹罗!"
战术会议——如何破解'獄裂'?
"...不可能."御堂狩真靠在椅子上,语气里带着一丝不服气的挫败,"那家伙的獄裂能直接粉碎幻术,就算是最精密的障眼法,在他面前都没有意义."
"没错."白蓝点头,手中的魔术棒轻敲桌面,"幻术对他无效,但我们并非只能依靠幻术作战."
夜见苍扫视全场,眼神凌厉:"我们要做的,不是用幻术去欺骗他,而是让战场成为我们的武器."
他在桌上铺开一张战术地图——那是龙牙场的地形图,上面标注了所有可能的隐蔽点,制高点,陷阱位,以及地势优势.
"鬼丸刹罗的战斗方式是正面碾压,他的獄裂拥有'破魔雷流',能瞬间击溃一切幻术构造,但这意味着——他只能针对已经发动的魔术."
白蓝的眼睛微微一亮:"...所以,如果在他破坏之前,我们就主动调整幻术?"
"没错."夜见苍嘴角微微勾起,"他击碎的只是'已存在'的幻术结构,但如果我们使用动态幻术,不断切换战术,他就永远无法精准捕捉我们的核心战术体系."
"也就是说..."御堂狩真摩挲着下巴,眼中闪过思索之色,"让他不断被误导,而无法触及真正的关键目标?"
夜见苍点头:"我们需要布置一场'多重战场',让他无法判断哪一个是真正的战斗区域."
他手指轻点地图,几个重点区域立刻被标记出来——那是可以用来制造视野盲区,调整战术错位的地方.
"如果我们成功了,那么就算是'獄裂',也无法击溃我们所有的布置."
个人准备——夜见苍的新王牌?
会议结束后,白蓝和御堂狩真分别去进行新的训练,而夜见苍则独自留在训练场,静静地翻动着手中的卡牌.
他知道,仅仅调整战术还不够.
他自己,必须变得更强.
夜见苍缓缓闭上眼,回忆起了**凰堂纱夜的箭,鬼丸刹罗的獄裂,白川的剑,豪战寺烈的拳...**他的对手们都在进步,而他不能停下.
"夜见."
突然,一道熟悉的声音从黑暗中传来.
夜见苍缓缓睁开眼,看向来人——凰堂纱夜站在不远处,金色的长发在微光中闪烁,紫色的眼眸中带着一丝复杂的情绪.
"...怎么?"夜见苍平静地问.
凰堂纱夜静静地看着他,片刻后,低声道:"...你打算怎样面对接下来的战争?"
夜见苍沉默了一瞬,随即轻笑了一声:"当然是赢."
凰堂纱夜的目光微微闪烁,似乎还想说些什么,但最终只是深深看了他一眼,然后转身离去.
夜见苍注视着她离开的背影,心中忽然浮现出一丝异样的感觉.
他知道——这一战,不仅仅是魔术部的生死之战,也是他与凰堂纱夜之间,无法避免的最终对决.
而他,必须做好准备.
五社联合会战的最新变局!
与此同时,鬼丸刹罗的战场——
在标枪部的训练馆中,鬼丸刹罗静静地擦拭着手中的「獄裂」,他的目光深邃,似乎已经洞察了一切.
"...魔术部,不会那么轻易认输."
他站起身,身后是标枪部的精锐成员,所有人都在等待着即将到来的决战.
而在学园的其他地方,剑术部,格斗部,弓箭部的强者们也都在密切关注着这场即将到来的战斗.
五社联合会战,已经进入最后的倒计时!
