"Your magic armor's power is already insufficient? That's why you want to end this battle quickly? "
His voice wasn't loud, but it caused a huge uproar. Rorschach didn't answer, but for those who knew him, this was tacit agreement.
Perhaps he was currently stuffing his mouth with a towel to prevent himself from accidentally revealing his secret.
This didn't require much information, nor did it require a god-like foresight to come to such a conclusion.
Based on the current situation, Jack's side should be the one panicking. After all, they were behind in terms of points. If Jack's side lost more members, the Gods would announce the end of the duel, and Jack would lose without even fighting.
However, Rorschach didn't seem to understand the situation at all. He had been attacking forcefully from the very start, and had been attacking forcefully from start to finish. In fact, he had even used his ultimate sword techniques to attack forcefully … It was as if Jack's side should be the one panicking and falling behind.
Such an obvious strategic mistake didn't seem like something Rorschach would do. In that case, it was only natural that he had a reason to attack forcefully.
With this as the premise, it wasn't difficult to deduce that Rorschach's magic armor's power was insufficient.
Typically speaking, a magic armor's power reserve was divided into two parts. The first was the magic armor's internal mana pool. The mana pool in this pool was definitely limited, so it was usually used as a backup energy source.
The power reserve was still provided by the user. That was why a powerful magic armor would need a powerful user to use it. After all, a magic armor was only a special piece of magical equipment.
Logically speaking, a rank 3 mage would have an advantage in terms of mana reserves. Even if they had already gone through two battles, they shouldn't have been in a predicament where they didn't have enough mana … Only the newbies would always have their warning lights flashing after only three minutes of battle. Their combat strength would be so lacking.
But perhaps most people had already forgotten that half a year ago, Rorschach had still been a "native" earthling!
Although he had now reached the rank 3 Aishi, he had only grasped some of the skills of the rank 3 Elemental Sword User job class. However, it was impossible for him to have the mana reserves of a normal Elemental Sword User. That would require several years or even several decades of accumulation.
His mana reserves were definitely insufficient from the very start. Then, in the second round, he used his magic armor to participate in the actual battle. Fighting, ambushing, and preparing for a long period of time would consume his stamina and energy, which would also indirectly consume his mana reserves.
The third duel started with a long-distance ambush, and he still had to deal with battles along the way.
Back in the day, heavy magic armor used a lot of mana. For a newbie like Roxia to be able to last so long with his mana reserves was already impressive enough for those in the know.
After all, the nickname "One Minute Man" wasn't a nice one at all during the Academy's duel.
Rorschach, Rorschach's, Rorschach's magic armor, and Rorschach, Rorschach Rororschach, Rorschach Rorschach, Rorschach, Rorschach, Rorschach, Rorschach, Rorschach ororschach............................'t '...... to........... to.......

On the battlefield, the sword dancer fell silent. But in the eyes of the uproarious audience, this was the embarrassment of being seen through.
"… The duel is over. Now, all Jack needs to do is defend, and he can wait for his opponent's mana reserves to run out."
"He's a newbie, after all. It's already quite difficult for him to reach this step."
The audience outside the arena seemed to have predicted the following development. The sword dancer, who had been seen through, made a desperate counterattack, which was easily blocked by the knight's magic armor, which focused on defense.
In the end, the sword dancer fell silent. The dark red knight pulled Rorschach out of his armor and nailed him to the void platform with his spear.
"What a pity. He was originally such a good seedling."
Some people were already feeling sorry for Rorschach's premature death.
But the following development seemed to be just as those people expected.
"Roar!"
The sword dancer let out a roar of despair as he roared angrily. His nimble twin swords flew up once again. This time, there seemed to be something more in the sword energy storm.
Was this the final counterattack of a loser whose weakness had been seen through? Or was this the final angry roar of a trapped beast?
In that instant, in the eyes of the audience, the dancer who was waving his magnificent sword light had clearly taken the initiative in the battle, but for some inexplicable reason, there was a tragic and stirring feeling in the audience's hearts.
"Honestly, such a cheap trick is basically tarnishing this rare game."
Jack shook his head in annoyance. He raised his shield in one hand and his spear in the other. This was a standard defensive posture.
"As expected, he's going to defend until his opponent's mana reserves run out."
"Rorschach is dead for sure."
When the icy-blue sword energy descended from the sky, Jack slightly raised his shield … and then casually tossed it away.
"Rorschach! You seem to have forgotten what I'm best at. Do you really think that such a clumsy lie will be able to fool me? "
Jack roared angrily as he gathered the power in his two hands to attack with his spear. Spear stabs, staff sweeps, and shoulder bumps. Jack actually chose to meet Rorschach's ferocious attacks with attack!
When the two sides clashed against each other, it was indeed ice and fire that clashed against each other. The icy storm devoured and tore at the crimson lightning. The "Warm Snow" system and "Aurora Phantom" were both at full power, showing signs that they were about to run out of energy!
In fact, judging from how the support system was operating at full power, the sword dancer seemed to be expending his own mana reserves in an extravagant manner.
"… How sly!"
"Didn't he say that he couldn't lie? So he can lie even without saying anything? How sly. "
Hindsight always came late. Only now did the audience realize what was going on.
So this was all part of Rorschach's plan. As long as he made his opponent think that he had run out of energy, the two of them would enter a battle of attrition, which would allow him to successfully stall for time and wait for reinforcements.
Jack had guided Jack's actions, remained silent at the critical moment, and even roared angrily. So silence was even more deceiving than lies!
Having seen through everything, Jack unhesitatingly chose to meet Rorschach's attack with attack. Sword and spear exchanged blows throughout the entire battle. While both sides were destroying each other's magic armor, they naturally entered the cruelest melee combat of all.
Meanwhile, the Aurora Sword Dancer Rorschach was biting on a piece of cloth in his mouth. He could only mumble the word "truth."
"… Why is it that every time I tell the truth, none of you believe me?"
In the background, there were red warning lights and emergency notices for energy sources.
Was the opposite of a lie the truth? Perhaps that was another lie as well.
The current battle situation was what Rorschach wanted the most: a quick battle.
