Chapter 77: The winner

"Well then, I'll just make you know how much similar to a frog in a well, you guys are." Ed deactivated his En. He no longer needed it now since he activated the Sharingan, and his sight was back. He rushed at Norris and started a sword fight with him. Each slash of Norris was met by two from Ed. But, as time went by, Ed looked as if he was on the losing side. Norris shocked him with lightning. Making Ed stunned, and then he slashed at his abdomen, blowing him away.

"Hahaha did you get weaker or something?!" Norris was too full of himself right now. However, some laughter on the sideline brought him back to reality. Ed's teammates, along with Leon and Charlie were laughing for some reason. Soon, the body of Ed that was blown away seemed to be melting into nothing. Some sword clashes could be heard on the right of Norris. "Oh, it seems like it wore off rather quickly. As expected from Earth Establishment!" Ed was fighting Alicia and pressuring her.

Norris didn't notice that he was put under Genjutsu. He didn't even know when it happened. All he could feel now was the shame. A shame of fighting air. "Now then I'll increase my tempo a little!" Ed used Shunpo and Ken at the same time. He also used Ryu to enhance his feet. Both of his feet had 30% of his total aura, while the rest of his body had the remaining 40%. Ed used this combination before and was able to handle it. As long as he doesn't put another layer of speed, he should be fine. He also used the silencing effect of the Shadow Steps and started moving.

He was now fighting both Alicia and Norris at the same time. Ed was using a special skill of Shunpo called speed clones. His super fast movement allowed him to create clones, making him capable of 'splitting' himself. But, in this state, he could only put pressure on them, and not beat them. After playing around for a while, Ed stopped and stored Muramasa. His Ame-No-Murakumo started condensing wind around it. "You better dodge this. Compressed Wind is very dangerous." After finishing his preparations, Ed swung his sword from an overhead position. He made sure no one was in the direction of the slash outside of the ring. After finishing, it looked as if the ring had split into two parts.

"You bastard! You're just showing off!" Norris was now fuming with anger. No one had played with his this way in his life. "You're right I should finish this. You guys, get far away" Ed spoke to his friends. He was going to use an AOE skill. He withdrew Muramasa again and stabbed it into the ground. He used Fire magic and injected it into the ground using his sword. Suddenly cracks formed all over the ring and surrounded Alicia and Norris. "Be careful, the floor is lava" Ed couldn't help himself from saying this. The fire that was injected got out from the cracks. Norris wasn't fast enough to dodge and was burned. Alicia jumped up to avoid the flames, but Ed was already waiting for her.

"Nitoryu Nigiri" Ed's two Katanas were now parallel to each in a horizontal way. "Otoro!" His sword slashed downwards with both Fire and Wind magic. The attack was so powerful that it sent Alicia flying right out of the ring. A web-like crack formed on the area where she fell. She coughed up some blood while looking at Ed before losing consciousness.

Norris was finally out of the fire. He was burned, but he was healing at an incredible speed. "You won't be able to kill me!" He charged aiming to beat Ed anyway possible. "I don't need to. I just need to drop you off the ring." Ed dodged one of Norris' slashes and stored his swords. He hit Norris' legs making him stumble, and caught his head. Ed was still angry at how Norris had threatened Suika. He smashed his head with the ring's grounds. Norris was now all bloodied from the smash. Ed increased the amount of aura he had in his hands and threw Norris out.

"Would you like to fight, Leon?" He turned his head to look at Leon and Charlie who were still on the ring.

"I'd rather keep my dignity" Even Leon, who loved to fight, chose to avoid Ed right now.

"The fight is over! Class E wins!" The general was the one who announced this time. Before anyone knew it, the king had approached Ed. Even Ed couldn't feel him moving towards him. 'Looks like I'm still a frog inside a well too' Ed thought.

"How dare you beat my daughter?! Now she'll be sad she couldn't win!" Everyone present couldn't hide their shock. 'He's an overprotective father' a wry smile formed in Ed's mouth as he thought about this father in front of him.

"Stop it, dad, you're embarrassing me!" It seemed like Alicia woke up right in time to hear her doting father. Compared to him, she was taking the loss in a much more simple way.

"Let's fight some other time. I hope you take it easy on me then." Alicia came to Ed and shook his hands, then went to get healed. Ed's slash broke some of her ribs, but thankfully it wasn't dangerous.

"Guess I can't help it" The king spoke in a low voice, then continued it. "E class won the tournament. All members will be given 1000 gold coins and have total access to the library!" Hearing the rewards, E class felt happy. They had won against all odds. Everyone one of them thanked Ed and his team, if not for them, they wouldn't even dream about such a thing.

All the students were now off the ring, including Ed. He was chatting with his friends about his new nickname. 'The Destroyer' He wasn't very fond of it. His happy time was interrupted by someone.

"I refuse to accept it! I can't lose, not to you! If I don't win, there is no winner!" Norris was very annoying at this moment. But, Ed decided to ignore him.

'This isn't the result we wanted, but it's better than nothing.' A figure moving in the back went unnoticed by everyone. It seemed that Norris' words were a trigger for something. But, no one knew, what would be triggered would cause a nightmare for this academy.
