Duran's ball, enveloped in lightning aura, flew towards the goal.
"Wind Shield!"
At that moment, Chelsea hurriedly cast a defensive spell.
A powerful wind blew from the goal of Class 5.
As a result, the ball, which had been flying at an incredible speed, suddenly slowed down.
However, its momentum did not disappear.
It was merely a fleeting moment where the ball was held in place.
The ball could not be caught rashly because it was wrapped in lightning aura.
Even if it were caught, it would certainly fly into the goal, breaking through Chelsea's defensive magic before reaching the other students' hands.
"What a pointless move!"
As Duran sneered, Leo shouted.
"Knife! Get ready with what I told you!"
"Ah! If only it wasn't for the bathroom cleaning!"
Knife summoned his mana.
Knife was an earth mage.
The specialization of earth magic was defense and weight!
A faint brown mana emanated from Knife's body.
Leo, who had used a gravity spell to reduce his weight, grabbed Knife's hand and threw him towards the goal, intending to use a human shield.
Boom! Whoosh-!
Knife's body flew towards the goal.
Whoosh-! Swoosh-!
At the same time, the ball also succeeded in breaking through Chelsea's defensive magic.
Lighter than the ball, Knife, due to Leo's strength, reached the front of the goal faster than the ball.
"It's no use! The ball will go into the goal with me!"
Duran sneered.
But just before the ball hit him, Knife used magic to increase his weight to the maximum.
Chelsea also hastily cast a shield spell on Knife.
Thud-!
"Ugh!"
Clang-!
Only Knife, who was hit by the ball, went into the goal, and the ball bounced out.
Before it hit the ground, if you caught the ball, the attack right would be maintained, but if you missed it, the attack right would disappear.
Tap-! Rumble.
The ball rolled on the ground.
Beep-!
"The attack right goes to Class 5!"
"Yaaah! That was awesome! Knife!"
"Your sacrifice for the class! I won't forget it!"
When Leo, Chelsea, and Knife's teamwork successfully defended, a cheer erupted from Class 5.
Knife smiled sadly at his classmates who only remembered his sacrifice and didn't worry about him.
"Sorry, Knife."
"Are you okay?"
"Only you and Chelsea are there for me."
Touched by the apologetic smiles of Leo and Chelsea as they approached, Knife was moved.
"That was amazing. What kind of strategy was that?"
When Nella, who came to treat him, asked lazily, Chelsea smiled widely and said,
"The strategy is called Friend Shield! Leo predicted this situation and came up with a defensive strategy!"
"Using a friend as a tool for victory. What a brilliant judgment."
Knife felt like crying.
Meanwhile, Iliana, who had the ball, swung her arm.
"Great! Great! Let's aim for an additional goal...!"
Zzz-!
A whip-like object stretched out from Class 1 and took the ball from Iliana's hand.
"Oooh! Haul!"
"Sexy!"
"True successor of the Snake Spear!"
Class 1's morale soared as they quickly regained the attack right.
Iliana, who alternately looked at her hand and the ball taken by Class 1, placed her hands together and bowed to Knife.
"Sorry, it was taken."
"Give me back my sacrifice!"

"Oh! What brings you to the training ground at this time, Senior Ein?"
"Of course, what else? I came to observe the combat class."
"Hehe! I see. After all, Celia,
