Chapter 826 New Trainees (Victims)

"Game set!!!", shouted the announcer, "The winner for today's match is Team Urahara Shouten! Congratulations!"

Silence took over the entire stadium for a brief period before intense cheers erupted from the audience, "Now that's one of the shortest games in the tournament and we certainly didn't expect to see it happen to Team Shooting Stars who have struggled even if they lose to God-level teams. What do you think about this match, Grimgal-dono?" The announcer turned to his side to hear from the invited commentator.

The bright green-haired muscular Devil nodded, "It certainly isn't what we expected, but considering the absence of information regarding Kisuke Urahara, it's not that surprising. And unlike most of the matches that we witness, Shooting Star didn't lose because of the enemy's overwhelming force nor him and his team's inexperience, but through clever tactics that directly struck through their biggest weakness."

The commentator stood up and gestured to the videographer team for them to hand over the controls of the projectors to him. After receiving the committee's approval they gave it to him.

"I know some of you don't really understand what just transpired, but please allow me to explain it to the best of my own understanding." Rewinding back to the point when the teams were just teleported, Grimgal explained, "As you can see, the terrain that was generated was incredibly advantageous for Team Shooting Star with their ridiculous and borderline nonsensical firepower and we all thought that the match was theirs, especially since the game rules specifically prohibit teleportation magic except for 'Castling'."

Forwarding the screen to when Kisuke's team emerged all out once, he continued, "With Team Shooting Star having the definite advantage, Team Urahara Shouten took advantage of that advantage. The latter knew how the other team would move, and so with that in mind, they used themselves as bait."

"If I were to guess, the few minutes that Team Urahara Shouten hid were used by their King to secretly move towards the enemy's position. With the sophisticated illusion that no one was able to see through, 'Kisuke Urahara' remained with his teammates and nobody would really expect for the goal of the match to start moving on his own."

Fast-forwarding it more, Grimgal added, "And this is where the confusing start begins. Kisuke Urahara was able to sneak behind Shooting Star so quickly that it was enough for him to plant a small gadget on him. Why didn't he just attack him? He probably wasn't confident enough to take him out in one blow and may even have predicted that Shooting Star would be able to dodge if he showed his hostility."

The moment Kisuke heard this, he just chuckled and said, "That's great."

But except for Seekvaira, those around him only gave him a dirty look.

"Moving on, the small gadget that he placed on Shooting Star's pocket released a massive amount of electricity, but for the fighters of this tournament, it's still something that would count as a 'scratching force' and nowhere near threatening aside from temporary paralysis that it induced."

"But if my guess is correct, this is just half of his planned attack and the other half was the sound wave that wasn't supposed to do anything aside from annoying anyone. It's already an established fact that Shooting Star is having a difficult time controlling his own Sacred Gear and before their clash, a large amount of aura was already gathered in his Star Buster Star Blaster."

"The explosion of electric current destabilized his nerves, resulting in further poor control and the sound wave attack targeted a certain frequency that destabilized the gathered aura itself. With this two-pronged attack, Shooting Star was attacked by his own power and lost his consciousness, ending the game."

"Now, this may have looked incredibly easy, but to do all of these, one is required to have an amazing speed and stealth to just sneak up behind fighters like Shooting Star. Not to mention the required genius to analyze a Sacred Gear to achieve a result like that as I don't know anyone, outside of Ajuka-sama or Azazel-sama, capable of doing this."

"Considering how he'd just concluded that you couldn't deal a finishing blow because you didn't do one, he has good eyes to have spotted the aura destabilization.", commented Athena.

"I... I couldn't see it.", Seekvaira turned to Genshirou and asked, "What about you?"

"Er... After some time, I could instinctively see the movement of aura. It's very useful in predicting someone's next actions."

Seekvaira became even more aware of her shortcoming after hearing his answer, "What did you do to achieve that?"

That question, however, made Genshirou visibly startled as he recalled when these detection skills were just coming into fruition, "...Let's just say that I had to do it if I didn't want to have all of my bones broken or my limbs torn apart."

"Oh... That time." Athena suddenly interjected as she also recalled the time when the entirety of Sona's peerage asked Kisuke to train them, only to be subjected to an 'intense abuse' and even that's putting it lightly, "I honestly thought that none of you would come out alive, and even if you did, a sane person."

With blank eyes, Genshirou lifelessly chuckled, "Hehehe... So Goddess Knight was also there. I never noticed."

"W-what happened?" Seekvaira became nervous, '...Wait... Didn't I also ask for the same training?'

"Now, now, don't mind it." Hearing Kisuke's jolly voice behind her made her shudder and jump to her feet as she hurriedly turned around to look at him.

Not minding this reaction, Kisuke pointed towards Nyx and said, "She also never noticed anything."

"Wha...?! Ehem... I don't need it! I could just blast everyone into oblivion!"

"Until you couldn't and failed to distinguish my strength in advance."

"G-guh..." Nyx backed away without anything to say against that.

Athena squinted her eyes at her and said, "Goddess Bishop, I think it's about time for you to learn how to do it as well."

Nyx was about to instantly reject it, but after thinking about it, because of her arrogance and pride, she seriously lacked in the 'technique' department and this might be a good chance to properly train. However, she was also present during Genshirou and co's training and has been terrified of that ever since. After a good amount of hesitation, Nyx shakingly pointed at Seekvaira and said, "If she does it with me, I'll do it."

She didn't know what they saw but Seekvaira was getting really scared now.

"Is that so?" A big smile crawled on Kisuke's face, "Good timing~! I have a new facility that I wanted to test out."

Nyx and Seekvaira felt like they just consented to become laboratory rats.
