🕑 Added 2025-04-20 14:47:57 +0000 UTCVicilia raised an eyebrow. "Two points? A bit too clean, if you ask me."
Arde clicked his tongue. "I agree. Add one more."
Lucius turned, his eyes dark. "Police Station?"
Arde nodded. "Correct. I want Ameliana Monito to see all her subordinates die. I want that woman to see that she can't protect anyone."
Vicilia gritted her teeth. "You're insane. Our focus is on the Holy Woman, not your personal vendetta!"
Arde clenched the armrest of his chair, the wood creaking under his grip. "Stop talking, Vicilia."
Lucius raised a hand, cutting through the tension. "No problem. Three points of fire. That’s even better. Their focus will be completely divided."
Theana sweetly interjected. "Arde, you've been buying explosives in bulk lately, haven’t you?"
Arde turned suspiciously. "Yes. Why?"
"You know where to use them, right?" Theana smirked behind her fan, her voice sweet as poison in tea.
Arde smiled wryly for the first time that night.
The air in the room suddenly turned cold.

The next day, after the quarterfinals concluded yesterday, the competition now entered the semifinals. Team Annie was one of the four best teams that had made it this far.
Of the four remaining teams, only one was from the first year—Team Annie. One was from the second year, and the other two teams were from the third year.
The competition heated up. The first semifinal featured two teams from the third year. The atmosphere in the City Academy Stadium instantly transformed into a frenzy as the two senior teams faced off with full force.
Their battle was truly spectacular. The audience, packed in the stands and those watching the live broadcast across Fortress City 085, were captivated by the intense scenes of combat, filled with explosions, strategy, and the determination typical of third-year students who were seasoned in experience.
The second-year team and Team Annie watched with tense faces and wide eyes. They were astonished that the battle between the third-year teams could be so brutal and impressive.
One team relied on long-range attacks with massive destructive power, unleashing a series of shots and explosions that shook the field.
The opposing team chose a different approach—defending and dodging as efficiently as possible, then countering with sharp attacks when openings appeared. Each of their counterattacks was not only accurate but also enough to incapacitate one member of the opposing team.
The match was fierce, and slowly the number of members on the attacking team began to dwindle. However, at that critical point, the defending team showed a drastic change. Their attacks became more focused, sharp, and terrifying—as if their strength increased with the fall of their teammates.
Unexpectedly, it was the first team that emerged victorious. Not just because of their destructive power, but due to the calmness, strategy, and sharp instincts they displayed until the very last second.

Now it was time for the battle between the second-year team and Team Annie to begin. A tense aura filled the stadium, and the cheers of the audience gradually faded as both teams entered the arena. This was not just an ordinary match for Team Annie—this was their biggest challenge yet.
Team Annie's victory over Team Lucy previously was not mere luck. They managed to excel because they had been rigorously trained for the past three months by Haruto, a mysterious second-year student known for causing trouble, with Haruto's extreme yet effective training methods.
Additionally, Team Lucy's weaknesses played a role—the team excelled in individual battles but was weak in teamwork. One by one, their members were strong, but as a unit, they lacked coordination.
In contrast, Team Annie built their victory on solid teamwork, neat tactics, and trust among members. They may not be the strongest individually, but as a team, they moved together like interlocking gears.
