(Fritz POV)
Receiving Hinata’s signal, Fritz move to the edge of the classroom to protect the children.
He looked down at the school grounds from the classroom window on the third floor of the school building and he visualizes an escape route in his mind.
For Fritz, Hinata’s order is absolute, he wouldn’t think to defy it. Because Hinata’s predictions are always right there’s no failure in it except in the previous Demon Lord Subjugation War.
It can only be said that the opponent last time was too strong.
Therefore escaping with the children according to the order this time should be the correct thing to do.
Fritz can understand that bringing the children and the information back takes priority above all else, he certainly thinks that the children and himself included will just become hindrance to Hinata.
But still, to just following an order without a reason is not good, so Fritz was assaulted by an uneasy feeling. Or rather, it was Fritz’s intuition that made him think so.
As the result, that Fritz and the children’s escape would succeed, or so it was.......
(Hinata POV)
Hinata understood the whole layout by looking it from the sky using spatial perception.
By the window are Fritz and the four children. The subjects she must protect, she can’t let them get swallowed up by an attack.
“The Hero” walks calmly from the door near the corridor to the chair in front of Yuuki.
The ability of the Hero is equal to her own ability or better than hers.
The story of the Hero sealing the storm dragon Veldora which was the “Dragon kind” she saw when she attacked Tempest was famous.
“Can I really win against that dragon?” According to Hinata’s calculation, the chance for her to win against the Storm Dragon Veldora is low.
Though there is no chance of victory, if she thinks about it, the Hero just woke up from a several decades long sleep and it can be assumed that the Hero is not in normal condition. Furthermore, because Yuuki is in control, the Hero might not be able to fully use her ability.
If it’s only to restrain her; then it might be possible. That’s what Hinata’s calculation derived.
Hinata returned her katana to its sheath at once, and takes the posture for iai. And then, she let out an attack to the front, not moving from her spot, using the extreme speed drawing the sword.
「Bind SlashAstral Bind Slash![1]」(Hinata)
The flash of the iai concealed it, countless numbers of spirit substance converge on the blade part and turn into innumerable blades that have been released as a soul restraining attack.
The spirit substance that was converted into innumerable blades has the same effect as the talisman.
It’s a technique to bind the Astral Body which is the container of the soul not the flesh, one of Hinata’s hidden attacks to seal the opponent’s movement at the same time as the shockwave from the swiftness of the batoujutsu is released.
The katana is a part of the spiritual armament, it’s an arms which was produced from the concretization of spirit’s power. Thus, the edge of the katana once again emitted a glittering brilliance.
It’s an action that’s possible without letting the enemy predict the tactics because it can substitute the talisman and the medium for converting the spirit substance. This would create a large advantage in a battle between fellow experts.
