Spar Between Zakuya, and Subaru.

The chapter starts as the 4 other idol, whispering to each other.

“Isn’t that’s the guy, that she always talks about?” The girl with yellow hair said.

“It looks like it.” The girl with purple hair said.

The 4 girls talks about Zakuya, and Amber noticed it, she look at them, and sees that they were looking at her, and at Zakuya.

“Hey, Amber-chan is that the guy—” When the girl with yellow hair talk, Amber freak out, and she cover the girl’s mouth, and she put the girl’s hand down that would point at Zakuya.

Zakuya, and the other guys notice what happened, and they were confused.

“Please don’t!” Amber whisper to her idol friend. Then she looks at Zakuya, who were confused of what happened.

Then she faces her idol friend, and she said— “Please don’t tell him, I’m begging you.” Amber said while blushing.

Her four-idol friend smile, and they nod. Then Amber faces the boys again.

“Again, thank you for coming, and watching us perform.” Amber said in a formal way.

“No problem, your our guildmate, so we will go if you say, so.” Kura said, as he looks at the other boys, and he said— “Right?”

“Yeah.” The boys respond.

After that they went outside, and they wait for Amber to change.

“Anyway, Zakuya how’s the girls you’ve been training?” Izuki asks.

“Oh them, they were good student.” Zakuya said as he remember Furina, and Yume running away, the first time he try to train them.

“Well, did you get stronger?” Subaru asks.

Zakuya look at Subaru, and he see Subaru smiling.

“Because me, and Izuki did get strong.”

Zakuya thinks of it for a moment, and he said in his mind— “(Did I count that as me getting stronger?)” He said as he thinks of mastering of how to use his left arm at fighting.

“Well, I guess I did not.” Zakuya said.

“Then get stronger or we will leave you behind.” Subaru said.

“I will, I’m not going to let you guys get a head of me.” Zakuya said.

“Okay, how about both of you spar?” Kura said, while looking at Zakuya, and Subaru.

All of them look at Kura.

“We haven’t see you guys fight, only a few of them see you fight, Subaru. And as for you, Zakuya we don’t see you fight.” Kura said.

“He’s right, I never see Subaru, or Zakuya fight, and I kinda want to see it.” Arona said.

“I want to see it too.” Kazuya said.

Then Izuki, Yuno, Futaba, Mami, Koharu, agreed while Berri, Bojii, Katsu, Nino, and Itsuki didn’t say anything.

After that Amber get out, and they see that Amber wasn’t the Idol Amber, but now she was a member of Yggdrasil.

“Sorry to make you all wait.” Amber said, while there is bag on her arm.

“Oh, Ganyu-san, what do think. Do you want to see Zakuya, and Subaru spar?” Kura asks.

Amber looks down, while saying on her head— “(I get to see Zakuya fight?)” Then she said—"I want to!”

“Then it’s set, Subaru vs Zakuya, after we head back to the base.” Kura said in happy tone. “Bojii, if you please.”

“O-okay.” After that Bojii takes out a teleportation scroll, and he throws it in the middle of them.

Then they teleported back to the base.

“Should I fight with this kind of clothes?” Zakuya said, because he was wearing ordinary clothes.

“That’s okay, you can move well right?” Kura asks, while the other was never the base, sitting watching them .

“I can.” Zakuya said.

“Then, the match starts now!” Kura yells, and then Both of them gets on their fighting stance, as Zakuya say— “Vegito!” While Subaru said— “Linear Edge!” Then both of them run towards each other.

“Lightning Magic.” “Flame Magic.” Zakuya, and Subaru said in the same time.

“Lightning Flash!” “Flame Flash!” Both of them cast their spell at the same time, and then both of them dash towards each other, and they swing their blade at each other.

When both of their blade hit each other, it create a shock wave, that hit those who were watching.

“Whoa, that shock wave is intense.” Kura said.

Then he sees Zakuya got blown away.

“(Zakuya-kun!)” Amber said in her mind.

Zakuya click his tongue as he twist his body, and then he land, when he land he look at Subaru, and when he did, he see Subaru on swinging motion. Zakuya sees that Subaru’s sword was an inch to hit him. But for some reason Zakuya was able to dodge, Subaru’s blade.

Subaru swings his sword while he was in the mid air, and he see Zakuya dodge his blade.

“What?” Subaru said as he see he’s blade release a slash wave, that hit a tree, then he land, with shocked expression.

“How did he do that?” Kura said as he sees what Zakuya did. Everyone was pretty much shocked from what they witness.

After dodging Zakuya did a front flip, and back flip, when he land, Zakuya gets on his fighting stance. Meanwhile Subaru couldn’t still believe that Zakuya was still able to dodge his attack without getting hurt or scratch.

“… I guess, I have to move faster.” Subaru said, as he smiles and said— “Acceleration.”

After that Subaru’s body, suddenly his body, looks like glitching, but not like the glitch of the abnormality.

“Huh? What happened to Subaru?” Kura asks.

As they see what happened to Subaru.

“(That thing… that’s the thing he use to dodge my attack…)” Izuki said in his mind.

“What is that?” Kazuya said while standing and looking at Subaru, who was looking at Zakuya while smiling.

“That spell called {Acceleration.}” Nino said, while looking at Subaru, with her arm cross under her chest. “His stats will increase several high. His movement speed will increase a lot too.”

“(Huh? What happen to him? That looks like the glitch of the abnormality.)” Zakuya said, as he gets in his fighting stance.

Subaru smile, while looking at Zakuya, and then Subaru gets on his fighting stance, and then he said—

“Lightning Magic: Lightning Field.” After that Subaru’s lightning field come out, and Zakuya was inside of it.

After that Subaru move, and he disappear in the eye of Zakuya.

“(Huh, where he is?)” Zakuya said in his mind.

Suddenly Zakuya’s body move on its own, and it raise his left arm, and suddenly Subaru hit Zakuya in the left arm, using his right feet.

“What?” Nino said.

“He blocks it?” Itsuki said.

“(What he was able to block that?)” Subaru said in his mind, while he was in the motion of swinging his feet.

Subaru immediately back off, and he look at Zakuya, smiling.

Zakuya look at him confused of how he was able to dodge Subaru’s attack. After that Subaru gets on his fighting stance, and he said— “I’m not going to hold back anymore.”

“Wait, he was holding back?!” Kura said, after he hear Subaru talk.

“Yeah, pretty much.” Nino said, while crossing her arm under her chest.

When Nino talk, all of them look at Nino with shocked expression.

“(He was holding back?)” Amber said in her mind, as she looks at Zakuya, who was on his fighting stance.

“Lightning Magic: Lightning Arrow.” Subaru cast a spell, and then a bunch of lightning arrow come out of Subaru surrounding him, and then each one of the lightning arrows fired at Zakuya.

When Zakuya sees the lightning arrow, coming towards him, he prepare, and he counter the attack.

“Flame Magic: Flame Defense.” Zakuya cast as he swings his sword upwards, and then the lightning arrow hit Zakuya’s spell. Zakuya clicks his tongue, and—“(there’s too many of them, Flame Defense can’t stop them all.)” Zakuya said in his mind as a few lightning arrow penetrate, Zakuya’s spell, hitting him in the shoulder, legs, cheek, body.

There’s still a few of arrows that fired, at Zakuya, and by that time, it comes in his mind, that he can’t stay there, on that place. So Zakuya side step, and run away, while looking at Subaru who was still firing his lightning arrow.

“Flame magic.’’ Zakuya cast a spell, while running.

“Flame Wave.” Zakuya jump, and he swing his sword upwards releasing a flame wave towards Subaru.

After releasing the flame wave, Subaru continue to fire his arrow towards Zakuya, but it was burn. When it was close to him, Subaru cast another spell.

“Lightning Magic: Full Lightning Savage.” Just like what Zakuya did, Subaru release a lightning wave, not like the full flame savage of Zakuya.

When both of the spell hit each other, Zakuya’s spell disappeared, and Subaru’s spell continue to head towards Zakuya.

Zakuya clicks his tongue before casting another spell—“Flame Magic: Heat Slash!” Zakuya swings his sword, and when it hit Subaru’s spell, Zakuya was able to slash it in half. Then Subaru kick him in the chess.

“Argh.” Zakuya said after getting kick in the chess. Zakuya were blown away, and he land on ground, Zakuya quickly stand up, and when he did he Subaru kick his feet on the ground dashing towards him with its left hand clenching, and it was releasing a black like lightning particle.

In the small amount of time, Zakuya could think of only one thing is to clench his left hand too, so Zakuya immediately clench his left hand and his fist release a faint flame.

“Dark Lightning Fist.” Subaru swings his left arm towards Zakuya.

“Flame Fist!” Zakuya swings his left arm towards Subaru.

Then both of their fist hit each other.

When the two-fist hit each other, it creates a ball of shockwave, then—
