Chapter 53: The Destruction of the Holy Sword
The blood-red light from the cracked calculator screen reflected in Darius Vorn's wide pupils.[DARIUS VORN'S VICTORY PROBABILITY: 0.000%]Three zeros after the decimal point.To an ordinary person, it was just a statistical line indicating defeat. But to Darius, it was the universe's gavel shattering the entire foundation of his existence. In a single second that felt like a century, his mind, a grand fortress built on Vorn family pride, blood spilled in the snow, and a lifetime of sword training, crumbled into unrecognizable rubble.He remembered his father's rough, scar-covered hands forcing him to hold a wooden sword when he was only three years old. He remembered the freezing cold atop Mount Aethelgard turning his fingers black while he swung a steel blade thousands of times to perfect his family's orthodox techniques. He remembered the blood oath at the ancestral altar where he promised to bring the Vorn name to the pinnacle of swordsmanship. Every scar on his body, every drop o
Chapter 52: The Cracked Screen and Fate's Verdict
The light collision sounded completely trivial amid the suffocating silence of the stadium. Tap.The junk wooden box had landed perfectly on the conceptual foothold hardened in thin air, exactly one inch in front of the tip of Darius Vorn's boot. However, falling from the height of the VIP stands still took a physical toll on an object held together by cheap tree sap glue. One corner of the wooden box peeled away, and the mana crystal fragment inside shifted slightly, widening the crack on the frosted glass screen made from an old jar lid.Yet instead of dying out completely, that microscopic shift in the tangled copper wire circuit triggered a terrifying chain reaction.The cracked screen suddenly lit up. It was not a pale blue light like when Aster calculated wheat flour prices, but a thick, sharp, blinding blood-red glare. That red light radiated outward from the cracks in the glass, slicing through the darkness of the galaxy illusion above the stadium like a blade through silk. It
Chapter 51: The Dropped Calculator Incident
In the VIP stands, amidst mass hysteria and gravitational pressure that made the nobles' lungs feel as if they were being squeezed by an invisible hand, Aster Vale was... sleepy. Very sleepy.For thousands of people in the stadium, the sky turning into a galaxy illusion and thousands of star swords hanging in the air was an apocalyptic sight that evoked primal terror. But to Aster, it was merely a cheap light show that was too bright, noisy, and severely disrupting his afternoon nap. The bluish light from the artificial nebula dazzled his eyes, and the low-frequency humming of the Vorn Holy Sword made him feel even lazier."No aesthetic value whatsoever. A complete waste of mana electricity," Aster muttered with a wide yawn, his eyes watering.On his lap, atop a stack of silver coins he was shielding from star dust oxidation using a shabby handkerchief, lay his custom-built Broken Calculator. He had just used its rusted alarm clock gears, tangled copper wire, and cracked mana crystal
Chapter 50: Thousand Star Slash
The insult about the discount burned the remnants of Darius Vorn's sanity to ashes. Fresh blood dripped from his nose, falling onto the blade of the Vorn Holy Sword still trapped between the cracks of the Cracked Iron Sword. Instead of trying to free his sword with an elegant sword technique, Darius chose the most brutal and self-destructive method.With a roar that tore his vocal cords, Darius forcibly twisted his wrist. CRACK! The sound of the radius and ulna bones in his right arm cracking echoed clearly in the silence of the arena. He used the leverage of his own broken hand bones to wrench the Vorn Holy Sword out of Kaelen's grip. Sparks and meteorite powder exploded, forcing Kaelen to loosen his hold to avoid the unpredictable rotation of the blade.Regaining his freedom, Darius did not land. Instead, he slammed both feet into the melting obsidian glass floor. BOOM! The arena floor collapsed into a three-meter-deep crater, and Darius launched into the air like a cannon fired int
Chapter 49: The Stalemate and Darius's Taunt
The starlight-emitting blade of the Vorn Holy Sword was now trapped. The gaping crack in the middle of Kaelen's Cracked Iron Sword, which in the previous chapter seemed like a fatal flaw, now served as an iron jaw locking the ancient meteorite blade perfectly in place.Darius Vorn pushed with all his remaining strength. The muscles in his arms strained until his silk uniform tore at the shoulders, exposing reddened skin and veins bulging like ancient tree roots. The silver aura around him roared wildly, creating a whirlwind that sucked up dust and obsidian glass shards from the arena floor. Yet no matter how hard Darius pushed, the blade of the Vorn Holy Sword did not move a single millimeter.Kaelen simply stood there. His left foot shifted back slightly to maintain balance, but his expression remained flat, blank, and entirely unbothered. There was no sweat on his forehead. His breathing was calm. He looked at Darius not like a knight engaged in a life-or-death battle, but like a sh
Chapter 48: The Ultimate Battle Begins
The bronze bell atop the academy tower chimed five times, its heavy, echoing ring signaling the start of the tournament climax. Thousands of spectators in Aethelgard Stadium held their breath simultaneously, creating a suffocating silence amidst the sea of people. On the royal balcony, King Valerius III leaned forward, his ermine cloak rustling, his eyes unblinking as he stared down at the arena. The dukes, generals, and foreign envoys stopped whispering. All eyes were fixed on the two figures who had just stepped onto the white sand of the arena.From the north gate, Darius Vorn stepped forward. He no longer radiated the elegant, calculated silver aura of previous rounds. The aura around him now was wild, dense, and trembling with a fanaticism that bordered on madness. In his right hand, he held the Vorn Holy Sword. The moment that ancient meteorite blade was drawn from its scabbard, a blinding starlight exploded outward, flooding half the stadium with an eye-searing white glare. Tha
