Anime: Infinite Swordsman! (Danmachi + Asterisk War)

Chapter 13 - Star Swordsmanship

"No, I just told Julis about 'Star Swordsmanship' in advance. As for the guidance, it is Julis herself who decides whether to participate or not."

Seeing Claudia's calm reaction, Luke almost understood her attitude.

Basically, it is certain that because of Claudia's future vision, he has replaced the original male protagonist's role in her heart.

...

At this time, while Luke and Claudia were conversing, the duel between Lester and Julis also came to an end.

Lester eventually couldn't withstand the exhaustion and collapsed.

Julis also inherited his ranking and officially became the seventh in the Seidoukan Academy and one of the 'Twelve People on Page One'.

"Okay, I'm done watching the duel, it's almost time for dinner."

"How about I treat you to a meal at our school? After dinner, you can also meet MacPhail and Julis and get to know them."

Seeing that the duel was over, Claudia immediately invited Luke.

Unconsciously, so much time has passed. The two of them walked around the academy for a long time, and then watched a 'protracted battle' duel.

Because he was anxious to follow Fan Xinglu, he didn't eat much at noon, and he was indeed a bit hungry now.

"Okay then, please lead the way."

After thinking about it for a while, Luke still didn't refuse.

It just so happens that after dinner, he can get to know Lester and Julis and listen to their thoughts.

After that, Luke followed Claudia to the most exclusive student cafeteria in Seidoukan Academy. Even though it is just a student cafeteria, the quality of the food served there is comparable to that of reputable restaurants outside of Asterisk city, and the price is more than three times more expensive than an ordinary restaurant.

Luke was very satisfied with the meal, not to mention that he was accompanied by a beautiful girl with a busty figure, which was eye candy.

...

After eating, the two took a short break and then once again came back to the training ground they had visited in the afternoon.

When they arrived, Lester and Julis were already waiting for them.

Luke, who was accompanying Claudia, immediately caught their attention.

"That is, the current top rank of Jielong Seventh!"

When she received Claudia's notice, Julis was mentally prepared.

The current top rank of Jielong Seventh who could supposedly defeat 'Banyuu Tenra' was imagined by her to be older-looking, mighty and ferocious.

Unexpectedly, he is so young and looks about the same age as herself.

"It seems that everyone is here, so let's quickly get started."

On the other side, seeing Lester and Julis both present, Claudia walked directly toward Julis, and then eagerly looked at Luke like the two of them.

Seeing Claudia's behavior, Luke immediately covered his forehead.

"Claudia, what are you doing standing over there? Didn't you say that these are your recommended students?"

"Ah, of course MacPhail-kun and Julis are recommended by me, but I would also like to recommend myself~"

Seeing Luke's helpless expression, Claudia smiled playfully at him.

"Then according to the agreement, 'Extreme Swordsman' will be invited to conduct the final review."

After hearing Claudia's words, Luke remembered that the final review of recommended students is conducted by the person in charge of the agreement, which means...

"Humph, do I have the right to declare you unqualified here, Claudia?"

As if to retaliate against Claudia, Luke also gave her a wicked smile.

Claudia, who had never expected Luke to do this, was stunned.

But she immediately realized that Luke was teasing her.

"Humph!" Immediately she turned her head with a sound, as if she was angry.

Pfft!

Claudia's behavior first made Julis next to her laugh.

"Haha, that Claudia Enfield would actually show such an expression."

Although Julis and Claudia have known each other since childhood, her impression of Claudia is not very good.

The shrewd and calculating image of the other party made Julis, who was a princess but grew up in an orphanage, feel very cold-blooded. Although she didn't dislike Claudia, she couldn't say she liked her either.

This was also the first time she saw Claudia frustrated, and her favorable impression of Luke, who had bullied Claudia, suddenly increased.

Julis' laughter made Claudia feel a bit embarrassed, and her lovely face was unconsciously stained with a trace of rosy blush.

However, their interaction caused another dissatisfaction.

Seeing these people 'joking' here, Lester suddenly became a little impatient. He didn't agree to this test just to see them 'show affection'.

"Hey, enough of the flirting. I don't have time to waste time with you here. Didn't you say you were conducting some sort of test? Let's get started quickly!"

Although a bit impatient, Lester's words still made sense. Both Julis and Claudia stopped playing around and looked at Luke.

Luke also looked at them in the same way. The three of them were indeed serious. Even Claudia really wanted to pass the test and become stronger after receiving his training.

"Then, the three of you, attack me together!"
