Chapter 5 - Flying in the mirror

Chapter Quotes 🎙️ Role: [Hatsune Himegami] 💬 Quote: "You think you threw a spear, but you were only lured by an illusion."

Challenge application: 6th place: Hatsune Himejin "Hatsune Himejin", who ranked sixth in the javelin division, was nicknamed "Mirror Pitcher" and was the only member to use the double javelin technique.

Her throw is very ornamental - her left hand is the main throw, and her right hand is the hallucinator.

She can disrupt her opponent to determine the angle of her throw through parabolic interference, mirror light refraction, and even smoke props and light field techniques, and is a representative of "Tactical Illusion Fighting".

After Onimaru defeated two strong opponents in a row, this battle was even considered his "stop-and-go battle".

"Hatsune is the madwoman that no one dared to challenge for a year."

"I heard that she practiced the basic class of magic and mastered the elementary interference of light refraction."

"Even if Onimaru can interrupt the wind, can he interrupt the visual system?"

At that moment, Onimaru stood in front of the battle zone and watched the smiling girl in a half-skirted cloak walking slowly on the opposite side.

"Hello, Onimaru-kun."

Her voice was soft.

"If you can shoot the real me, I'll throw in the towel."

From her waist, she pulled out two short spears and the silver light flowed like theatrical props.

Onimaru just looked at her and replied easily:

"I don't care if it's real or not. As long as you can penetrate the target."

⚔️ Round 1: Fog of Vision Hatsune Himejin takes the lead.

She threw the spear in her left hand, creating a dazzling silver light in the air, and then shook it with her right hand to spread three ribbons of light in the air.

- The viewer sees three javelins appear almost simultaneously, at different angles and at the same speed.

In the end, only one team is right, and that one hits the high-scoring area of the outer ring!

"That's what she's capable of... You can't even see it clearly."

"Didn't Onimaru say that he was from the Wind Breaking System? But this isn't something that the wind can solve...

Onimaru took a deep breath and threw his weapon first.

He closed his eyes and ...

Throwing sideways.

Not straight ahead, but into the side corners.

"Is he crazy?! He's completely out of line!"

But the moment the javelin flew out...

The audience was suddenly shocked to realize that the javelin arc actually bypassed the light band, cut into the edge of the illusion along the extremely twisted path, and hit the "real target" set by Hatsune!

- Smack!

Hatsune Hime's eyes widened and she showed a look of surprise for the first time.

"You... How do you know where I am?"

Onimaru replied calmly:

"You're using visual illusions, and I'm ... I judge the wind with my muscles."

Hatsune was stunned.

For the first time, she realized that the person was not relying on visual judgment at all, but was using his body to perceive the track.

⚔️ Round 2: The Prison of the Light Curtain Ji Shen's second throw began to enter the "multiple mirror" mode.

The four-sided reflector was activated, and more than ten cast afterimages were reflected in the field in an instant!

The audience can't see the real landing point at all.

Finally, the javelin falls out of the air and hits the bull's-eye on the left!

[Score: 97 points|Illusion Level: S+|Psychic Oppression Rating: S] Hatsune smiled and turned around: "Onimaru-kun, it's time for you to collapse, isn't it?" - She turned around with a frozen face. Onimaru did not waver, but put the spear flat on his shoulder, closed his eyes and whispered, "Third Style.... Breaking the Illusion Trail". He moved slightly, turned around, and threw! This time it's not a straight line, it's not a folded angle, it's ... Asymmetrical Wave Line Throw! The spear vibrates and rolls in the air, like a butterfly feather against the wind, and each stroke deviates from the center of the beam, finally hitting the back of the bull's-eye! - Smack! [Score: 100 Points|Trajectory Innovation: SS|Illusion Nullification Rating: EX] The crowd falls silent. Hatsune's eyes widened and she muttered, "I ... Seen through?" Onimaru slowly lowered his hand and the old wound on his shoulder cracked open again. He whispered, "It's not to see through, it's to penetrate." 🛡️ [Challenge Result] ▪️ Onimaru Sara: Promoted to the 6th ▪️ Alternate Ranking Technical Record: Wind Breaker・3rd Style "Broken Illusion Track" added to the Tactical Collection ▪️ Himegami Hatsune commented: "This guy is a tactician among madmen." And in the surveillance room in the background, Momono clenched his fists. "He even pierced Hatsune... One more win and it's my turn." Next - ranked fifth: Momono Hatsuji (Deputy Minister), Ruler of Wind Prison.
