Chapter 236.2

“Several students are heading towards the epicenter of the magic.” (Arcana)

Arcana pointed at the Fan Union girls.

“What the heck are those girls doing?” (Sasha)

“…A test of courage?” (Misha)

“Go protect them. It’ll be good training for you too, Aisha.” (Arcana)

Arcana raised her hands and turned them towards the sky.

“The night comes, the day passes, the moon rises, the sun sets.” (Arcana)

The divine magic she unleashed distorted order, and darkness engulfed the light.

In an instant, day turned to night, and a fantastical Moon of Creation that emitted a warm glow floated in the sky.

“Snow falls and illuminates the earth.” (Arcana)

Lunar snowflakes fluttered down from Artiertonoa, covering the Enchanted Forest.

It turned into a protective blessing for the students.

“Look at the Moon of Creation, Aisha.” (Arcana)

At Arcana’s words, the silver-haired girl looked up at the sky.

“It is said that the Magic Eyes of Absurdity can alter even a god’s order. If your eyes hold the same power, then you should be able to reshape that Moon of Creation from a crescent to a half-moon.” (Arcana)

Aisha focused her magic into her Magic Eyes of Creation and Destruction, and gazed at the crescent Artiertonoa.

For a moment, it seemed as if the moon’s outline blurred, but there was no change in it.

“That might be too difficult…” (Sasha)

“Not enough magic power.” (Misha)

Although Aisha channeled her magic power into her Eyes, it seemed she didn’t have enough power to reshape the Moon of Creation.

“Artiertonoa is a crescent moon not because of the amount of magic power it has, but simply because it follows my divine order. If you have the Magic Eyes of Absurdity, you can defy this order and transform it.” (Arcana)

“Even if you say that, we don’t know yet if these Magic Eyes of ours are truly the Magic Eyes of Absurdity…” (Sasha)

“This is hard…” (Misha)

Arcana raised her hand, causing the lunar snowflakes to swirl upward.

“Then, I will give you magic power.” (Arcana)

The lunar snowflakes began to emit a sparkling silvery white light.

“Snow is fleeting, melting away and disappearing. Let it leave a trace in your heart.” (Arcana)

The lunar snowflakes gently fluttered down on Aisha, melting and transforming into her magic power.

Her Magic Eyes of Creation and Destruction caught sight of the moon floating in the sky.

Artiertonoa’s glow increased slightly.

“…I feel like I can do it… I’m not sure, but I just need to make it a half-moon, right…?” (Sasha)

“—First Quarter Moon—” (Misha)

Aisha focused all her magic power into the Magic Eyes of Creation and Destruction, and gazed at the moon.

Its outline seemed to blur for a moment, and the crescent Artiertonoa, hidden by a god’s order, gradually revealed more of itself.

Glowing with a sparkling, fantastical silvery light, it transformed into a first quarter moon.

The power of the falling lunar snowflakes increased, providing even stronger protection to those standing on the ground.

In the Enchanted Forest, the Fan Union girls looked up at the half-moon of Artiertonoa in astonishment.

“What’s going on? It suddenly became night!” (Ellen)

“Do you think the fact that the friendship between Anos-sama and Shin-sensei crossed a line caused the day and night to become confused?!” (Fangirl A)

“Does this mean that they don’t need daytime in their world?!” (Fangirl B)

“Hey, look! A silver moon we’ve never seen before is blessing Anos-sama’s and Shin-sensei’s friendship!” (Fangirl C)

“Surely the conclusion is near. Look, the sword of love of Anos-sama and Shin-sensei is shining so brilliantly!!” (Fangirl D)

Light clashed with light, and love collided with love, creating an intense struggle with ear-splitting explosions resonating over and over again.

This place was truly the epicenter of love.

In the midst of reverent and passionate cries…

“…Misa… I love you…” (Lay)

“…I love you too…” (Misa)

With each exchange of words and love, their <Two-Handed Holy Love Sword Explosion Ligaro Tir Traloth> burned hotter.

“…We won’t lose…!! Because I love Misa more than anyone else. Anos, no matter how strong you are, I can’t give up this love!!! Not today!!!” (Lay)

Lay and Misa push back against our swords of love.

“That’s right, Lay, Misa. The greater the challenges love faces, the more it blazes. There are no limits to such feelings. However…” (Anos)

In the midst of our fierce love struggle, I exchanged a quick glance with Shin.

Words were unnecessary between us. That alone conveyed everything.

We slowly moved our swords.

The tips of our two swords overlapped, forming a V.

“You haven’t crossed the line yet. Your love has a flaw. You’re keeping that love hidden, to a fatal extent.” (Anos)

Once again, we pushed back against their <Two-Handed Holy Love Sword Explosion Ligaro Tir Traloth>.

“Ugh…! No way…!” (Lay)

“…Where did they hide this much love…?!” (Misa)

Gritting their teeth, Ray and Misa desperately endure the blow of that love.

“I’m not saying your love is inferior to that of Shin and me. However, you decisively lack resolve.” (Anos)

“Resolve…?” Lay muttered in a daze.

“That’s right. Lay, Misa, do you think love is something to be ashamed of?” (Anos)

“Why would we be… ashamed of it… at this point…?!” (Lay)

“I don’t mean something this superficial. Look deeper into yourself. Dive deeper, deeper, and deeper. In the depths of your heart, in the abyss of love, there is an inescapable shame. That shame creates hesitation in your love and dulls it. That shame, which isn’t as prevalent in friendship or respect, is the flaw of romantic love.” (Anos)

Lay looked taken aback in realization.

“Have you figured out the abyss of love yet? Only by overcoming shame can you reach its true depths. If so, then there’s only one way to go about it.” (Anos)

I spoke with love for my friend.

“Expose your true love. Show it. No matter where you are or who is watching, just pretend that it’s just the two of you.” (Anos)

I took a step forward.

As if he knew I would do this beforehand, Shin stepped forward at the exact same time.

“Let’s show them, Shin.”

“As you wish.”

Our swords, forming a V-shape, turned jet-black with the light of love magic, and expanded.

“<Twin Swords Holy-Demonic Friendship Love Explosion Cannon Vaviro Varche Triath>!” (Anos & Shin)

The tips of our two black demon swords of love crossed.

From there, pure white light transformed into a massive mass and was fired like a bullet.

The giant bullet of love caused Lay and Misa’s swords of love to explode one after another, blowing them away.

“Ugh…! Gah…!!” (Lay)

“Ah! Kyaaaahh…!!” (Misa)

Swallowed by the massive explosion of light like a flood, Lay and Misa were blown away.

The blast knocked down one tree after another, and the two finally came to a halt after crashing into a huge rock mountain.

Thanks to the protection of the lunar snowdrops that Arcana and Aisha had brought down, their lives were not in danger.

“This is the shape of our unfiltered love.” (Anos)
