Hiro felt a bit shocked. He didn’t think that the survivors would shout a name as the last representative for the duel. They didn’t say anything when he was choosing The Ninja and also Noah before. But now, when he was about to walk forward, they stopped him.

They started to suggest Dominic to replace Hiro’s place in the duel as if what Hiro had done for them so far was not enough to show them that he was a strong player. Meanwhile, Dominic, the leader of Immortal Knights, was indeed far more popular than him.

“Just Let Dominic beat them!”

“Yeah, Dominic!”

At that moment, suddenly the loud protest stopped when Dominic raised his right hand in the air, giving a signal to all of them to be quiet.

“He is the one who managed to gather all of you here. Pay respect to him. He is our leader, give him a chance. You’ll never know how strong someone is if you never give them a chance to prove themself.” Dominic stated a sentence that instantly made the survivors feel as if they had been slapped in the face.

His words were truly charismatic, but that alone wasn’t enough to make a hundred thousand survivors let Hiro fight.

“I don’t believe in that mage! It’s enough to just add one weak player. Don’t make the risk of the defeat even higher!” a man in a blue cloak has pointed his index finger to Noah while talking.

“Right! I don’t want to waste my 3 hours!”

“Yes! This is nonsense!”

To deal with those who were still shouting of refusal, Dominic spoke again with a sentence that in the end made them be slapped once more.

“Did you forget? NightFall and Noah currently occupy the 1st and 2nd top scorers in the Survivor team. One more step to getting Tier 1 and Tier 2 rewards. Do you think they will lose easily after struggling to accumulate that points?”

“He’s right.” Draco, the mage from Immortal Knights, added and made the other survivors shut their mouths.

Dominic’s statement was correct. At that moment, Dominic let Hiro continue his walk forward and challenge the opponent who had been waiting for him all this time.

[Remaining time: 00h 20m 30s]

After the three representatives from each team came forward. Next, they chose who would fight first.

Ace, without much consideration of anything, decided to order one of his teammates to walk in the space that had been marked as a duel area.

And thus, the first duel will be a magic duel.

Noah Vs Alaric.

None of both teams objected to that decision.

.

.

Duel started…

Noah and Alaric walked forward. The distance that separated the two of them at this time was only 3 meters.

Without waiting for unnecessary cues, Alaric instantly flexed his fingers, doing a channeling to activate one of his strongest magic skills.

At that moment, suddenly a shining blue-circle appeared on the ground, encircling Alaric’s body.

At the same time, Noah casted a pair of flames blazing above his palms, aiming to shoot the enemy with the fire on his hands while the Mystic Tome flew low in front of him, with black and white light emitted from its two sides

“You are a fire magician, huh? I am sorry, but you will never win against me.” Alaric talked to Noah with a high level of confidence.

Tch.

Noah clicked his tongue at the arrogant words that came out of his opponent.

‘Who the fuck he just called a fire magician? I am the strongest magician in the world,’ he taught himself while turning the page on his mystic tome by waving his right hand over the flying book in front of him.

Noah had a pretty good basic knowledge of playing games. Mage was a job class that he always chose every time he played a game because of his obsession to become the strongest magician in the world.

Seeing that the opponent was a magician with a magical staff type weapon, Noah’s confidence in being able to defeat his opponent did not decrease in the slightest.

Noah had previously studied the types of weapons recommended by magicians and researched the differences as well.

In the LSO world, tome or spellbook type weapons had advantages in terms of casting time speed and cooldown, which tended to be faster so they could have spam skills. Meanwhile the magical wand or staff type had the advantage of increasing magic penetration.

To create a wizard character that was a little tanky so that it was safe when dueling against wizard-hunters such as assassins or rogues, a mage should choose a magical wand or staff. Some types of wand and staff were light enough that they could be wielded using only one hand. So that he could also carry a shield on the other hand to increase their HP and defense.

Wizard character builds like this were very suitable for player vs player battles, especially in battle squads.

Meanwhile, using a tome or spellbook as a weapon was actually superior when it was used for grinding, especially solo-grinding. However, in terms of player vs player battles, this weapon was no less effective, especially when the battle that would take place was a battle between players of the semi or full ranged-duel type. As Noah would experience at this time, a duel between mages.

Alaric was pretty sure that Noah was a fire magician because of his first movement.

And after channeling for more than 15 seconds, Alaric’s most powerful water magic skill was shot.

[Water Nebula – Level 1]

Although the level of the skill was still very low, the power stored in the skill was so powerful that it could be categorized as an ultimate skill because to activate the skill, a basic water element level max skill was required.

Splash!

From both of Alaric’s palms suddenly came out a very strong shot of water. Within one meter, the two water shots seemed to rotate around each other and form a water helix that shot very fast toward Noah.

But before a violent collision occurred, a smirk appeared on Noah’s face.

He had expected that his enemy would attack him with water-type magic after guessing he was a fire mage. His enemy taught that his weakness would be the water.

In just three seconds, Noah had activated a counter magic for the water nebula’s attack on him.

And the magic skill Noah cast was indeed surprising his enemy and made Alaric drop his jaw.

[Draining Roots]

Crack!

Suddenly, the ground covered with snow where Noah was standing shook and cracked for about one meter in front of him.

Dozens of plant roots appeared to extend unnaturally from the cracked underground and they could flutter in the air before coiling around each other to form a sturdy rectangular shield right in front of Noah’s body.

SPLASH!

All the water nebula shot was drained very fast, absorbed by the shield made of plant roots.

“What the hell is that thing?!” Alaric was shocked because his most powerful magic spell had failed to defeat the enemy. It didn’t even touch him.

“Ha ha ha ha.” Noah couldn’t hold his laughter any longer. Seeing the look of surprise and confusion clearly etched on Alaric’s face really made him burst into laughter.

“I am the strongest magician in the world. I am not just a typical fire magician, you dumb!”

Noah didn’t give Alaric the opportunity to steal channeling time once again because this time he was increasingly convinced that he was much stronger and Alaric was not an opponent comparable to him.

Without waiting for the second attack, Noah immediately cast an attack magic with almost no casting time.

“I’ll show you the actual water magic power!”

[Water cyclone]

Noah formed a circular torrent of water in front of his hands and used the cyclone of water to attack Alaric.

Whoosh!

The water cyclone was too powerful for Alaric. The cyclone continued to move, sweeping Alaric away and pushing him further back, dragging more than ten hunters at once behind him.

Their bodies were drowned in the massive amount of water that came out of Noah’s hands. They couldn’t breathe, and the HP of them was fastly drained too.

[11 hunters could no longer hunt]

[11 hunters have been eliminated from the game]

When they were eliminated from being killed in the game, their bodies shattered and turned into shards of crystal pixels.

The water cyclone was then stopped. The water dripped to the surface of the snow and made the layer of snow under their feet of the hunters felt even more slippery.

The duel between Noah Vs Alaric had ended in no more than a minute.

“I won. You’ll be next, Coward!” Noah deliberately threw an annoyed look at Dimitri, who was wide-eyed at Noah’s actions just now. He really didn’t think that Alaric would just be eliminated by a fellow mage.

Next would be The Ninja Vs Dimitri.

The duel must be very fast and normal eyes might have difficulty watching their movements.
