755 My Final Match Begins
Fifty-one people in the arena. One against fifty. Two if I count Victoria. But she’s a weapon now and won’t fight on her own.
Damn. I shouldn’t have been here. I regret acting tough. It won’t end with just light injury for me. New chapters are published on NoᴠelFɪre.net
But I can’t stop this from happening.
The king has witnessed enough of my strength and be convinced that I’m actually the strongest here. But everyone here want to fight me. So it can’t be stopped.
“Everyone ready?”
Fabio will be the one to start this last match. Everyone watching is either standing up or leaning forward in their seat so they won’t miss a thing.
I looked at everyone who has prepared themselves to fight me. I’m sure that they don’t think that they can leave this place unscathed.
Even if it’s fifty against one, this one guy is too strong. I think I can defeat most of them before I lose in the end. Though I might have a chance to win.
Whatever. I’ll just get ready to fight.
.....
I crouched down on the ground on all four. I sunk my fingers on the ground. This way, I can leap instantly at a high speed as soon as the match started.
“Start!”
As soon as Fabio announced the start of the match, I leaped forward as fast as possible toward Derek and the other master level mages behind him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDerek is a wind master level mage. He’s fast. But I’m much faster.
At least I can accelerate faster than either Spot or Ray. But it’s only for a close distance. For a long distance, they will win in a race. But in short distance, I’m the quickest.
So right now, I’m already in front of Derek in just one leap. And it’s correct to say that I landed on his chest before kicking him to change direction. This will be how I start the fight.
Since I’m the fastest in short distance movement, this is how I will fight.
Leaping toward one target, landed on their body to stop, before kicking their body and leap to another target.
So, I will move, then stop, then move, then stop. Until this plan no longer working, I will keep doing this while targeting those who I deemed as dangerous. And my first three targets are Derek and the other two master level mages.
After I kicked Derek on his chest, he lost his consciousness. And the same thing happened to the other two as well. And the others can’t attack well or they will hit their own allies.
And now after the three master level mages are done, I need to target someone else. But I can’t take my time to think, so I just look for someone strong that I needed to defeat, but I know that they won’t be quick enough to react to sudden danger approaching them.
Those like Angela, Kayla, or others who have fought so much and have a lot of experience would be able to react quickly. So my next target is someone with less experience. Randy.
He’s out. He managed to create Earth Wall, but it was too late. The wall raised after I hit him. So when he got knocked out, the wall is gone again.
Then I continued defeating my opponents one by one like this.
But this plan doesn’t work all the time. After a while and defeated some more people, the next target I landed on didn’t get knocked out. But I keep using this tactic to injure them quickly without getting myself put in danger.
I also can’t stop for more than half second. That’s enough for anyone to hit me.
Everyone also have prepared themselves if I suddenly leaped at them like a frog before moving to my next target the same way. But at least I have defeated enough people. Still, the strongest ones are all here.
But I continued in this manner until it finally doesn’t work anymore.
“Well, the frog strategy doesn’t seem to work anymore. They have prepared to counter me,” I said.
“When you landed on people’s chest, you kicked them hard enough so they wil get knocked out after their heart stopped beating for a second or the air in their lungs left. That was a good strategy. But it won’t work anymore,” Victoria commented.
“Well, it’s just a strategy for a match like this. I don’t think using it in a real battle is a good idea. It’s better to kill them than doing things like this. But I can’t do that here,” I said.
I guess this is where the real battle start. Next, I should target the mages first. But I can’t since they are well-protected by the surviving monsters.
By the way, those who got knocked out voluntarily left the arena after they regain their consciousness. So the arena won’t be too crowded.
I have no choice but to defeat the close-range fighter first. The monsters.
I transformed Victoria into a long staff and spin it around as I hit several werewolves and vampires at once. The angels are flying so I can’t really hit them now.
This didn’t knock anyone out since this time, the angels have enough time to heal those I hit. So I changed my target to the angels.
This is the first time I’ve shown the new members of the alliance how I fly. By kicking the air. Since before when I fought the angels, I just jumped and didn’t step on air.
Although I don’t need to use air magic to do it anymore since I can run on air with Aura, I used a bit of magic without much Aura to show Sunglasses that air mage can also fly. Though it might be more tiring than how wind mages fly normally.
I had Victoria created some Blobbies and turn them into a gun and shoot those who tried to attack me, while Victoria as a staff on my other hand is to knock out those flying angels.
The angels noticed that I’m attacking them so they created Barriers using light magic. But that doesn’t work.
I covered Victostaff with Aura and smashed their barrier easily. It would be easier if I use any sharp weapon to cut them, but I’m not going to kill anyone here.
All the angels have fallen. Except for Graham. Now the only healers here are Graham and Kayla. And they both are being heavily protected.
All of a sudden, Kron comes flying my way. No other magic he used. Just flying.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI thought that he will use magic. But I didn’t expect that he would just focus his magic to fly my way without stopping. In fact, all his magic is used to increase his speed.
And in the end, I couldn’t react when he hit my stomach with his head because I onle prepared myself to receive his magic attack. Even after covering it with my Aura, his bald head covered with bandana still gives me a bit of damage.
Then I quickly hit him on the back of his head and knock him out. By this time, the others have prepared their magic on me.
I am being surrounded by magic while I’m in the air. From above and below, they tried to attack me. While the monsters are keeping me in check to make sure that I won’t be able to dodge.
All attacked me at the same time. So I chose one side that I will break forcefully instead of getting hit by those magic purposely.
My target is Candy. Her fire magic is too strong and can attack a large area. So I charged at her after I split her fire magic, But Jewel blocked me in her triceratops form.
I just ignored her and charged forward. Smashing Jewel with my shoulder. Blowing her away and hit Candy with her large body.
But Jewel quickly transformed back to her human form before her body gives too much damage to Candy. This is why I could do that. Because I know that Jewel is smart enough to do it.
Candy got knocked out. And Jewel is in her human form. So I knock her out as well before defeating the monsters nearby.
“Well, fuck. There are still a lot of them. What should I do next?”
“Keep fighting until you lose,” Victoria suggested.
“What about keep fighting until I win?” I asked back.
“If you think that you can win without taking much damage to yourself, that’s fine. Don’t forget that this is a friendly match. And the cult is still out there,” Victoria said.
I guess that’s how it is. I’ll try my best to win until I can’t.
After this, the werewolves came at me all at once. They’re working together to bring me down. But they can’t.
After I fought them in my first match, I can somehow tell what their moves will be. So their moves are pretty much predictable since they didn’t change their tactic.
I only managed to bring down one werewolves before another group attacks me. The vampires.
And while I was busy fighting the vampires, Arin came and slashed her blood sword at me. I can’t dodge and Aura can only protect me so much. So I lost quite the amount of blood. Which Arin and the vampires gladly drink even the blood sprayed on their body..
Well, I just made them stronger while I’m getting weaker. I think it’s time to use my special move. Or I won’t have any chance at all to win.
