347 Fourth Day Awaits

"Firestorm," Elena chanted, and a storm of fire appeared between her and Amelia.

It was powerful enough to melt part of the stage where it appeared, but Amelia remained calm.

To counter a spell, you needed to respond with equal or more powerful magic. However, there were many factors that affected how effectively you could counter a magic spell.

One of these factors was understanding the structure of the spell used and finding a weakness in that structure.

It was difficult to do unless you had studied the spell yourself. If you didn't understand the structure, the only way to counter was to use even more powerful magic against it.

Up to Tier 3, all spells behaved predictably, meaning some elements were naturally stronger against others. But this changed from Tier 4 onward, where magic became more complex.

No one in the First Year, including Asher, could cast a Tier 4 magic.

Even the Tier 3 spells that some of them used were simpler versions of the original Tier 3 spells. They restructured these to suit their needs.

And accomplishing such feats was only possible for a few talented individuals with guidance from teachers like Elsa.

"Reverse Wind: Tempest Art," Amelia chanted, augmenting the spell.

Chanting while augmenting was one of the techniques she had learned from the knowledge she gleaned from the books she had read.

After all, the books that Amelia had read were written by famous mages whose names were noted in history.

Before going to the Sanctuary of Mages, Amelia asked Sylvie for suggestions. In response, Sylvie provided Amelia with the names she needed to search for.

That's why Sylvus was able to recognize Amelia's methods instantly; he himself had read those books.

Because some of them were closely related to Augmentation magic, Sylvus couldn't learn much from them.

Wind around the stage started flowing in the opposite direction, and Amelia's magic clashed with Elena's Firestorm, making it unstable and soon it started to scatter.

Soon, the restriction of the bracelet was gone and Amelia was freed and she immediately augmented herself physically.

Amelia made her way towards Elena while a dagger appeared in her hand.

Elena smiled as she made tilted pillar made of stone appear in order to hit Amelia.

Amelia's eyes looked to her sides as she saw multiple pillars appear towards her.

Her Crimson Red eyes focused on pillars as Amelia sidestepped but the stage started rumbling as Elena lifted her hands.

Crack!

Amelia looked at the cracks that were appearing right below her.

'I need to dodge,' Amelia thought while looking around.

But the whole area around her was affected by Elena's spell making it impossible for her to make out of it in a normal way before Elena completed the spell.

She immediately jumped on one of the pillars but as soon Amelia land on one of the pillars, she saw ball of fire coming towards her.

"She can dual chant already, not bad," Xarax commented.

Dalton looked proud at his Granddaughter as the battle was in Elena's favor.

The fireball was about to hit Amelia but she saw vines with thorns appear from the cracks so she couldn't fall back.

Taking a short breath, Amelia eyes narrowed on the fireball as she jumped towards the fireball.

At the same time Vines emerged from the stage, but Amelia was already mid air, as he took out her dagger while covering it mana.

She slashed the fireball with it, but her hands were burned in the process, but her mana broke the spell making the impact much less.

But the fireball exploded surprising, Amelia as Elena clenched her hand.

It was the ability of the ring artifact she possessed and it was to control fire and burst into explosion a few times.

"It's over, Amelia," Elena said as the Vines started travelling towards Amelia who was falling from her position at a high speed.

"No!" Livia shouted as she saw Amelia was falling into the Vines.

Amelia shifted her body towards the ground, and her eyes started chanting as Alfred smile but a frown appeared on Dalton's face.

Her Crimson Red Eyes were glowing, and it meant she was using her Bloodline ability.

"Lir Burst," Amelia muttered as bluish fire covered the ground beneath her burning the vines immediately.

Amelia made a mana barrier on the ground to safely land and immediately landing, she dashed towards Elena, who saw Amelia's glowing red eyes which made another image overlap on Amelia's face.

Remembering that, Elena stopped chanting for a second, which was enough time Amelia to get close to Elena.

Amelia manage to make on Elena's arm before she took a few steps back as she glared at Amelia.

But Elena was angry on herself, for making such a mistake.

'If the distance was bit shorter..' Elena thought to herself.

The match would have ended, if Amelia was a bit closer and her dagger made its way near her neck.

"She made a mistake," Tyrone who was sitting with Raelyn spoke.

"It's fine, the match hasn't ended yet," Raelyn said.

Amelia's right hand had burn injuries but Elena's arm was bleeding as well. But both of them unfazed by it.

Even some of the students were surprised by the level of their fights as they haven't seen First Years fight like this.

Elena raised her left hand to send condensed ball of fire, which Amelia had no choice but to dodge.

Amelia was using a lot of mana to augment herself, so she was able to dodge them easily, but some of them could explode due to the power of the Artifact Elena had.

Their exchange of magic started, and both of them responded with equal or sometime powerful magic.

Despite using augmented magic, Elena was still able to use powerful enough spell to counter Amelia's attack.

"I think I underestimated them a bit," Lishia said.

Currently she was present in Kiara's VIP Room, with Jodie being present there as well.

"Will you lose to them?" Jodie asked.

"No, I can win," Lishia was confident.

Kiara smiled seeing her confidence, and she was glad that she was like that.

"But who do you think will win?" Lishia asked Kiara.

"I don't know, their magic is equally powerful but Amelia Greville has a good chance if this battle drags on," Kiara replied.

"And it seems she is aiming for that to happen," Kiara said as she pointed at stage.

Elena closed her eyes, as the ground around her started to shake and stone pebbles started to form multiple daggers around her.

Amelia didn't do anything, as she started chanting as well, as drops of water started circling around her.

Both of them have activated their mana barrier, and were chanting to create a powerful spell.

Stone daggers were formed, as Elena blazed them on fire, but this time the fire was highly condensed and hot.

But the stone didn't get affected by the heat, as Elena controlled her mana.

Elena opened her eyes as she sent the stone daggers towards Amelia but the water droplets became bigger as an entrapment spell appeared between Elena and Amelia.

Elena frowned as the water drops started to catch the daggers slowing them down while Amelia moved towards her.

It was a defensive spell, which took a lot of mana to maintain but for Amelia, the mana cost to cast such an spell was low.

'Both brother and sister are a problem,' Osbert thought looking at Amelia.

Nobody targeted Amelia, because there were rumors in rift between the Greville Siblings, and people wanted that rift to get bigger.

But seeing that how Elena Rothschild and Amelia Greville were not on friendly terms, Osbert confirmed that the things might have changed now.

Amelia who was rushing towards Elena, waved her hands to create wall of fire behind Elena to stop her from retreating.

Elena sensed the heat emerging behind her, and she had only once chance to end this match.

She could sense that prolonging this battle would do her harm than good.

She had a lot of mana left, but she was sure that she would be the one to run out of mana first.

It was already impressive that being at the D Rank she could multicast so many times, without wasting her mana, but in front of someone of the Greville Bloodline, having a battle of mana was pointless.

Amelia also knew that if she pushed Elena, she would try to end this match in one go, and to do so she needed to use something closer to a Tier 3 Spell.

"Ceres Ignite," Elena muttered as her eyes closed.

"Is she forcefully using a Tier 3 spell!!" Some of the Professors got worried but they didn't move just yet.

Amelia on the other hand threw her dagger at Elena, that got absorbed in the globe of Fire that appear in front of Elena.

"Is she trying a half chant?" Xarax said and Sylvus nodded.

A Half chant, was using half the structure of a spell, to quickly use a spell but it would be very unstable and maintaining it for long was impossible.

The globe started glowing as huge explosion was about to happen and Amelia charged towards it.

"The match is over," Sylvus said as Dalton smiled.

But Sylvus didn't meant it the way Dalton thought.

Because he sensed what Amelia was doing he knew the outcome of this match.

The explosion happened, as huge dust appeared on the stage the students were confused both the Professors were standing shocked seeing, Amelia on the edge of the stage, with wounds on her body, while Elena who was slightly out of the stage.

But her condition was even worse than Amelia.

"How?" Elena muttered looking at Amelia, who barely standing.

Even some professors didn't recognize the method Amelia used.

"She learned quite a trick from her trip," Elsa said while smiling.

"Amelia Greville is the Winner" The winner was announced.

The third day had ended, but while everyone were confused or shocked by the result, one man was waiting for the next day to begin.

'Tomorrow will be quite a day," Farnus thought as he looked at the stage.
