The time for speed shooting the final round will be started in the next half an hour, the one who enters the final is Arthur and Kichijouji Shinkuro. The final of men division is held after the female division who is won by Shizuku so there is quite a lot of spectator, this is a battle between a well known young researcher known as Cardinal George and a new start with an ace of First High.

Arthur and George standing in their respective places and held their own CAD in different manners where George held it in front of his body use both of his hand with a serious look. While Arthur places his CAD on his shoulder with a smile on his face as if it was not a final for him.

"Mind game? You're too naive to think I will fall for something like that" George look at Arthur while the latter didn't bother to answer him and just look at a particular place.

➡️➡️➡️

In the spectator field, a group of students from High School is quite in high tension because if Arthur can win the speed shooting for male division then they will bring back the first place for male and female division.

"So he will use the same magic as in the preliminary phase?" Erika ask Tatsuya who is join with them instead with Arthur

"No, this time is a bit different"

"But Tatsuya, it's fine if you're here? What will happen if Arthur needs your help?" Mikihiko think even if Arthur is strong he still needs the help of Tatsuya if something wrong happened to his CAD

"There is nothing I need to do there, he can handle everything after I give him his CAD"

"After he wins then that would mean all of the athletes under your care is became a winner right?" Mizuki didn't think Arthur will lose after she witnesses his power when the invasion has happened before.

"Then Tatsuya will become very famous, right? At that time I hope you will not forget about me" Erika laugh a little and want to see Tatsuya reaction but the one who answers her is Miyuki

"You mustn't worry Erika, Onii-sama will not change no matter what happens and will treat you as his friend"

"Oh, then what about Arthur? With his look and achievements, there will be a lot of girl after him right?" Seeing her joke is didn't work to Tatsuya, Erika change her target to Arthur, but her real target is Emilia

"I didn't think he will change because of this" Emilia didn't look at Erika when she answers her, but she looked at Arthur who is in the arena

"Oooh, you confident in yourself?"

"What are you talking Erika?" Emilia turns her head and looks at Erika with the confused expression "what I mean is, Arthur will not change just because there is a lot of girl after him. There is a lot of outstanding and powerful girl around him, and for me the most outstanding is Cecilia"

Emilia mentions Arthur's contract spirits like Cecilia, Kise, Destina, Tamarine, and the other witch whom he contracts recently before teleport to this world is an outstanding girl too.

"There is another girl aside you, Echidna-sensei and Abby?" Mizuki quite interested about this thing and ask Emilia

"Who is Cecilia? I never heard of her name mentioned before" Erika feel there must be something interesting if she pestering Emilia

"She is a very beautiful girl and she is a Queen on top of that! I learn a lot of things from her"

"Queen?" Tatsuya quite is taken aback by this new information

Quite different from how Ten Master clans are well known to citizens of this country, the strength of England Royal Family is not much exposed to the public.

"England's Queen?" Miyuki

"I didn't know... I never ask and Arthur never mentioned it either" Emilia answer with an apologetic look because she didn't know it

"You didn't need to feel sorry, it was me who ask without thinking" Miyuki put her hand on top of Emilia's hand and smile at her

From the information they received from their aunt, it stated Emilia is lost her memories when she is very young and life with Arthur's family after that before they come to Japan.

"Ah! It's starting!" Mizuki's voice is heard by everyone and their attention is shifting to the arena, it was unknown if she intentionally raises her voice but it was success make everyone focus on the arena.

The competition is start and something unbelievable happens in the arena

➡️➡️➡️

"You won't surrender?" That's the first word Arthur say to George from the moment they come to the arena "It will be very bad for your mind if you didn't surrender now"

"If you want to make me lose my focus because of your comments, then I need to tell you it was a futile attempt"

"No, it wasn't. I just being honest here, the reason I join this because there is someone who is expecting me to become a winner in this competition, so there is no reason for me to make you lost confidence over yourself after you lose to me"

"You can talk bog as much as you want"

"Haaah, I already told you what I want to say so the rest is up to you"

The sign for the start of the final phase is heard, Kichijouji aims his CAD and wants to use his trademark magic 'invisible bullet' as fast as he can but there is unexpected development happen.

Arthur's target is the white one while Kichijouji Shinkuro target is the red one, but there is nothing Kichijouji can do to his target because there is a storm of snow covering the whole space for scoring points.

The storm destroys the white target and ignores the red one, but it's not just the area covers by the storm is large there is also a strong zone interference release from the magic make Kichijouji can't active his magic to intercept the red target.

Different from Shizuku's active air mine that still leaves a room for the opponent to scoring points, Arthur's magic didn't even leave a little bit room for Kichijouji. There is no rule to interfere with other target and the contestant is permitted to make the opponent can't score point properly as long as there is no physical contact.

So Arthur's magic didn't break any rule set up in this competition, on top of that he didn't even shift the trajectory of the red target because there is didn't need to do, as long as the opponent can't active magic than Arthur surely win.

An unbelievable score 100 vs 0 is make the supporters of the Third High school silent and Kichijouji looks at the scores board dumbfounded and can't believe what he experiences.

Arthur didn't xo any celebration in the arena, he pats Kichijouji shoulder and leaves the arena. He did not just break a record for the fast person scoring a hundred points but he also set up the highest score difference for the final and won with complete domination.

➡️➡️➡️

He didn't know how he can end up in his room, Kichijouji looks at his own reflection on the mirror still holding his CAD that he never used in the previous battle.

Looking at the CAD, the previous scene is flashing again in his mind. How helpless he is in front of his magic, Kichijouji gritted his teeth and grip the CAD tighter until his shoulder is trembling.

There is a sound of the door being open, without the need to turn his back, Kichijouji can tell who is the one who enters the room. It must be his best friend, Masaki.

Masaki didn't say anything and he just takes a seat on the same bed with Kichijouji and they have their back facing each other. More than ten minutes is passed but not even Kichijouji or even Masaki say a single word.

"If you want to console me at least say something to me, Masaki" Kichijouji is the one who broke the silence between them

"I didn't know how to console you because the result is something I never dream of, and whatever I say maybe will not give a good result with the mental state you have currently, but maybe you're right, I need to say something"

Masaki walk to the window and open it with both of his hands, bath on the light of sunset his posture is very straight like a soldier who will be heading to the battlefield.

"We will defeat him in the monoliths code, I didn't have a hundred percent confidence to beat him in the Ice Pillars Break if you didn't become my advisor as usual, even if I lose I will take my revenge to the monoliths code and defeat him there" Masaki declares it proudly and he didn't even feel embarrassed to say the possibility of him losing to Arthur.

Another scene flashing inside Kichijouji mind, and a sentence left by Arthur when he leaves the arena and pats his shoulder is ringing inside his mind.

'I'm waiting for our next meeting in the final round for monoliths code'

There is no mockery or any other negative feelings he feels when he remembers it again, it was a sincere statement from Arthur who is hoping he will get better and have a more exciting battle the next time they meet again in the monoliths code.

"Yes, I will prove it, I will make it even in the monoliths code"

There is new hope, the First High didn't have any notable athletes in the male division except for Arthur and no matter how strong he is there is no way for him to win monoliths code by himself when the competition itself is a group battle.

There is a new resolve in Kichijouji eyes, seeing his friend is getting better Masaki smile and reach out his hand.

"Let's defeat him together, George"

"We will win" Kichijouji stands up and take Masaki's hand before he replied with a loud voice.

And just like that the competition for speed shooting male division is over with Arthur from First High claim the first place, Kichijouji Shinkuro from Third High painfully accepted the second place and Morisaki Shun from the First High take the third place.
