About the case of destruction flags being demolished after a nichiasa loving otaku was reincarnated as a villainous student – Chapter 182 – Unveil the results of the training!

The duel started, and Mizari immediately ran straight towards Verber.

Verber was surprised by how she ran like the wind and quickly closed the distance between them, but regained his composure soon enough, and chuckled.

(Eh! It doesn’t matter how fast you are when your attack power is trash!)

He had a complete grasp on Mizari’s fighting style.

She would try to keep him in check with her trademark jabs, and strike with the magic item on her right arm when she saw an opening.

He could ignore the left hand jabs, since they had little attack power. And even the right hand strike with Wasp Needle would definitely not be fatal unless she landed a clean hit on a vital area.

There was also the breastplate he received from Shian. With that on, he should be fine even if Mizari attacked with all she had.

Verber was calm and collected as he took Mizari’s light attacks, but when he tried to counterattack…?

“Shh!!”

“Eh? Ah, gah!?”

Mizari exhaled a little, and when she executed an attack with her left hand, Verber felt sharp pain, and his expression turned to anguish.

He was not hurt, thanks to the magic barrier, but he felt something different from the pain of a blow. That was when he realized Mizari’s Wasp Needle was on her left arm.

(N-not the right? Why did she equip it on her left…!?)

Verber was thrown off, because this did not match the data he had, and Mizari did not let that opening pass by.

She rushed him head on again, and attacked Verber with repeated jabs that were too fast to see.

“Shi! Fshi! Shah!!”

“Gih!? Guh!? You…!!”

Verber tried to raise his sword in response to Mizari’s attacks, but she hit him three times in the meantime.

They were light strikes, but the pain of being stabbed with a magic energy infused needle could not be ignored. The damage was definitely piling up in Verber.

“Hey hey. What is Verber doing?”

“He’s just getting hit! Lame!”

“Be quiet! Shut up!!”

Verber reacted strongly to his friends’ provocations, and clicked his tongue with irritation.

Mizari made small movements as she stepped towards her next attack, and unleashed an even more intense barrage.

“Dammit! What’s with her!? Why is she suddenly…!?”

Verber could not deal with her attacks at all. He allowed her to easily get close, and from that point forward, continued getting hit practically without guarding.

After being hit with two or three jabs, Verber finally swung his sword, but Mizari had already taken some distance.

The sword hit nothing but air, and Verber continued to lose his cool, because he was doing nothing but getting hit.

“What did you do? How did you raise the power of those weak attacks this much!? Did you use rare materials on that magic item!?”

“…It was nothing much. Just a combination of a new fighting style, and working out a way to use magic energy.”

Up until this point, no matter how much magic energy Mizari infused into her Wasp Needle, it shattered the moment it hit its target.

However, simply equipping it on her left arm, meant that her attack power went up by several degrees.

The incredible speed of her jabs was one thing, but the real problem was her firepower.

Each attack was not enough to end it, but being hit over and over by that intense pain made Verber lose his cool. As they saw this unfold, Yuugo and the others spoke about how Mizari was fighting.

“It’s going well. I knew she could do it.”

“She worked really hard. And An helped her too…”

“I didn’t do much, I just tuned the magic item a bit. It’s her that’s great for getting so much out of that.”

No one could doubt Mizari’s strength, as her incredibly fast left hand rush cornered Verber.

Her rapid growth was not due to her magic item, but simply a result of her efforts.

It was not as though she did not mess with Wasp Needle at all, but… What Angel and Phi did was nothing more than to follow Yuugo’s idea.

All they did was tinker with the feature to help utilize infused magic energy.

“It was a really simple tune up. When you focus magic energy on the needle, instead of increasing its range, it makes it tougher. That’s why the magic energy needle is tougher instead of longer. It doesn’t spend a lot of magic energy either, so it’s easy to maintain. In addition to that…”

Angel raised her index finger and moved it in a circle.

She kept moving it in a circle as if hypnotized, and Melt spoke instead of her.

“The magic energy infused on the needle spins like a screw. That gives it a lot more penetration power. It’s another application of the feature in Yuugo’s Blaster!”

“That’s it. Simple, but pretty effective, right?”

It was like the drill arm equipped in Yuugo’s Blaster.

Blaster’s feature used magic energy so the metal particles spun like a fake drill, but Mizari did that with magic energy alone.

Suffice to say, the difference in mass meant Mizari lagged behind Blaster’s penetration power, but her rapid jabs evened the playing field with their damage.

Spinning like a drill added a lot of firepower to what used to be just a needle that pierced.

“He can’t ignore that left arm, but watching out for it alone won’t do him any good. At least that’s the case with Verber, because he’s letting her approach him so easily.”

Mizari abandoned range and the combo with her right hand in favor of improving her speed and greatly increasing her attack power. Now, if she managed to get close, she was definitely powerful.

At the very least, Verber, whose confidence mostly came from his weapon and armor, had no way to deal with her. Said Marcos, and Yuugo nodded as he continued.

Thanks for the chapter!

I love the contrast between Mizari and Verber here, Mizari decided to train and improves herself, while Verber is over reliant on equipment and assumed Mizari will stay the same.

Fun fact about Mizari Pym: She is based 3 different heroes from 3 series: Kamen Rider TheBee from Kamen Rider Kabuto, Cure Papaya from Tropical-Rouge! Pretty Cure and The Wasp from Marvel Universe
Also, some chapter title for this arc is a reference to a song named Viva! Spark!, the opening theme for Tropical-Rouge Pretty Cure

Took me a bit to figure out, but Cure Papaya inspired Mizari’s bob cut, petite height and her almost expressionless personality. Those are the traits from Minori (she gets a lot more expressive when she transformed into Cure Papaya).
