Chapter 49 - Edge Of Justice

"Welcome...I greet you, the new owner of Tranquility Realm"

Libra

A constellation that is known to be more fair than other constellations

She always judges good and bad done by gods and goddesses, humans, monsters, demons, angels, and even other constellations.

Her firm figure is also an experience that Libra has experienced for thousands of years as Chief Justice.

During Libra's reign, there is no such thing as cheating in the law.

Even if someone seems to be covering up their mistakes a little, Libra will not hesitate to punish them.

Libra often says 'Do what you have to do, and don't cover your mistakes, everything will get better if you make the right decision'

With thoughts like that, Libra succeeds in bringing justice to their world.

And it all ended because of an accident.

.

.

.

.

"I greet the Chief of Justice, Libra, the fairest among all the constellations."

Kamiya greeted Libra by bowing like a nobleman when meeting a Queen.

"hm... turns out you are better than I thought"

Libra walked towards Kamiya and touched his chest.

"...."

Libra closed her eyes, then suddenly her eyes lit up. 

"You are indeed human, but why can you have negative and positive energy in one body?"

"I have gone through various trials before arriving at this stage"

Loki's experiments, and also the training that changed his life

"hm...okay"

Libra invited Virgo and Kamiya to sit on chairs that looked like they were made of ice.

"so tell me, what made you come to my realm?"

Libra waited for Kamiya to speak while sipping her tea.

"I want to borrow your strength to fight the evil that will come to my city"

"...."

Libra put the cup back down, and then she snapped her fingers.

Then a transparent white and black chessboard came out.

"let's talk about it carefully"

"....."

Kamiya knew this was a test for him.

.

.

.

.

"Kamiya...the owner of Tranquility Realm...you say that you need my power to fight the evil that is plaguing your city?"

"That's true, Chief Justice Libra"

"..."

Libra was still thinking while moving one of her pieces.

"in life, there is no such thing as peace"

"..."

"One day, peace may come, but it will only be temporary peace."

Libra started to get rid of Kamiya's one pawn.

"I'm sure it's true"

"Then why do you want to fight for a world where evil and good can never unite?"

Once again, Kamiya's pawn was knocked out.

"I believe, by fighting for that world, I can at least bring safety to the people I want to protect."

Kamiya got rid of one of Libra's pawns.

"Your wishes are good, but are you sure you can make it come true?"

The Kamiya Knights were eliminated.

"even if I cannot save my people, I will bring destruction to the evil"

Libra's Bishop is knocked out.

"good answer"

Libra then moved her Queen.

"Then the last question"

"...."

"What...if you die when fighting the evil?"

"..."

With the movement of Libra's Queen, the checkmate position has come.

Kamiya then moved his queen and removed the Libra queen.

"I will find another way, but I also won't die that easily."

Then the situation changed.

"....good thoughts and answers"

Libra was satisfied with that answer.

Then she snapped her fingers again, and they were instantly transported to a different realm.

In this realm, everything is completely different, this time, the sky is full of stars and galaxies.

And above all, the constellation Libra is exposed in that sky full of stars and galaxies.

The Scales are a symbol of Libra.

"as another test...."

Libra is seen holding a gray spear.

"I'm here, and will decide whether you are worthy to borrow my power other than words."

"...that means I passed the intellection test, right?"

Kamiya sweatily prepared a fighting stance.

He closed his eyes and then created a sword of light.

Kamiya knew, that just a light sword alone was not enough to fight Libra, or perhaps...even with all his strength, the winning percentage was 0%

But at least, he still had the spirit to fight.

"Are you ready?"

Libra started to get into a fighting stance.

"...."

Kamiya opened his eyes and got into a fighting stance as well.

"I'm ready"

"..." Libra smiled and glanced at Virgo.

"...." Virgo who had already closed her eyes took a breath.

And she said

"Today, Kamiya, as the new owner of the Traquility Realm, will begin the test of Libra, as a suitable candidate to receive the power of Libra, the 'Chief of Justice'..."

Kamiya's heartbeat began to increase little by little.

Kamiya knew that if he waited for a constellation to attack, then the end for Kamiya would be death.

so therefore

"started!"

*dash

Kamiya would go first as the best form of self-defense.

.

.

.

.

Kamiya was in no time behind Libra.

Without giving Libra time to react, Kamiya immediately slashed Libra's back.

*clang

"!!??"

But the voice he expected instead became the voice he wanted to forget.

"Going straight to your opponent's blind spot isn't a bad choice"

Libra's spear only shifted slightly to block Kamiya's attack.

Kamiya added wind magic to his body and moved the wind to carry his body away while combining it with his movements.

Kamiya moved as far away as possible and prepared four magic circles containing earth, fire, electricity, and ice projectile magic.

Then he prepared to attack again.

The thing that annoyed Kamiya was the fact that Libra was just staring at the place where Kamiya started his stance.

"a combination of magic and martial arts huh"

Kamiya casted wind magic again on his body to speed up his movements

Perched in front of Libra, Kamiya left his projectile magic above, left, right, and behind Libra.

"It's not a matter"

Libra finally swung her spear. 

But this was all beyond Kamiya's expectations.

Libra's spear swing looked slow, however, Kamiya's movements and projectile magic also seemed to slow down a lot.

"....haha...."

Kamiya finally realized this wasn't Libra being slow, but this was all just Libra's movements being faster and making everything feel slower.

"try to avoid"

Libra just said that and did a circular swing with one hand from bottom to top, and placed it on her left shoulder.

Then she thrust the spear straight forward. 

Kamiya who saw that used all his strength to avoid the stab.

*BOSS

Even though it didn't hit, the attack still left a wound on Kamiya's cheek.

And that attack even destroyed Kamiya's magic circle.

Libra turned her spear back and hit Kamiya in the chest with the blunt part of the spear.

"UGH..."

*BAM

Kamiya was thrown to the side very quickly.

"Come on!"

Virgo is very worried about Kamiya, in this battle, it is certain who the winner will be, but Kamiya still accepts this challenge.

"cough cough...."

Kamiya started coughing and gasping for breath due to chest tightness.

He then saw his sword that was broken because of the stab.

"..really...cough cough....this is not fair you know"

Kamiya then made small projectiles from demonic power and also made spears from light.

"Here I come"

*dash 

Kamiya started to dash back with a demonic power projectile as a diversion.

"..."

Libra began to feel a little resistance from Kamiya.

She started spinning her Spear to block all the projectiles.

Kamiya waited for that moment and attacked from the front.

Libra simply swung her spear horizontally.

*crush

Kamiya's spear shattered instantly, and when Kamiya's spear shattered, he could see that Libra's spear was slightly black.

Kamiya jumped backward, summoned a spear-shaped demonic energy, and threw it at Libra.

*CRASH

With just one more swing, Kamiya's spear shattered.

But he also saw that Libra's spear was starting to turn slightly white.

"it's all useless"

"..."

Kamiya felt there was something he should try.

"came"

Kamiya once again took out two spears, light, and demonic spears at once

Then he once again gathered magic and cast wind magic onto his body.

stable his stance and move as fast as possible

Libra looked around, but Kamiya threw a spear of light from Libra's right.

Libra deflected the spear without caring about the next attack.

And something happened

*clang* *BOOOM*

"!!"

"!!??"

Kamiya and Libra were both shocked, an energy explosion began to occur on Libra's spear and pushed Kamiya and Libra in opposite directions.

"...."

Libra was stunned and saw her spear stuck in the middle between her and Kamiya.

"Who would have thought you could find a chance with just a few tries"

Libra was impressed by Kamiya's speed of thought and awareness.

"came, Edge"

Libra's spear began to shake and returned to Libra's hand.

She did not take any damage.

The surprise earlier did make Kamiya realize something, but when the power ratio was this big,

What is the point?

.

.

.

.

It's really surprising.

How to beat Libra?

What should I do so that my strength equals at least half of Libra's?

Or at least a quarter of it, I have to compensate for that.

And unfortunately, statements say otherwise.

*sigh* at times like this, I always hate being weak

I should have known that the constellation challenge was difficult, but I was still stubborn huh?

To defeat Loki, I need to become stronger, with my current strength, even defeating a hero faction, I will have difficulty.

Then how should I fight the enemies who will soon arrive...

"...that's impossible..."

"...have you finally given up on getting my power? Is this the only way your fight goes?"

"..."

I have to fight as best I can

especially to defeat Loki

I have to...give.....EVERYTHING!

*shine*

.

.

.

.

Kamiya's right hand glowed along a blazing blue line, traveling toward his heart.

The more he feels the desire to become stronger, the more the lines lead to Kamiya's heart.

Kamiya felt his consciousness slowly dwindling, but on the contrary, the power he felt was getting greater.

"....what is that light..." Libra confused

Kamiya started to look at Libra who was confused by the light emerging from Kamiya's right arm.

And Kamiya suddenly felt something on his mind.

'say it'

"??"

Someone said it telepathically.

'say it'

This was not the voice of someone he knew.

'if you are indeed the soul chosen by Thirtha, then say it'

"...."

one last push

This is the key to making Kamiya move.

He started to stretch out his right hand and said

"....In the battlefield....predestined by fate...."

*tremble

"!!??"

Libra feels there is something strange about nature.

Especially someone who interfered in the middle of the battle, the presence was indeed thin, but it was certain that this person was a god because the power could break through a realm by force.

Libra then looked at Kamiya who was chanting something.

"I will order the stars.....to illuminate the world within my will"

"!!?"

Libra then saw the stars starting to change.

Or perhaps more accurately....it gets sucked.

Even the Libra star itself could not survive and began to scatter

"this is serious"

Libra then started spinning her spear and tried to throw it at Kamiya.

but suddenly

"Radiating the light on your soul"

"Hugh"

Libra's movements stopped, and she felt like there was something strange about her body.

"Virgo!"

"Libra-san!"

"Quickly cancel the duel!"

Libra orders Virgo to stop this duel because something is wrong with Kamiya.

"I, Virgo hereby declare-"

"Balance Breaker...."

*crack

This world is starting to break apart, even the realm is starting to show very large cracks.

"...tch.."

Libra clicked her tongue because it seemed like something troublesome would happen after this.

"Astral Wielder..."

*crack

Everything looks like it's starting to crack.

both the galaxy, the stars, and the constellation Libra itself

"Luminous....."

*crash

That realm was destroyed and began to become a different realm.

In Kamiya's hand, there was already a medium-sized white and black energy.

This is a form of natural power and the stars of a Realm Of Tranquility owner.

A realm that even the constellations could never understand

Something they couldn't solve

That's the meaning of...

"Enigma.."
