'Zap', 'Zap', 'Zap'
Multiple bolts of lightning hit the Armored skeletons and destroyed them, but the next moment, more were summoned. The others were not able to understand what game Vinay was playing; to them, his efforts looked futile. No matter how many times he summoned his undead summons, they were easily taken care of by Kajal, but instead of giving up, this guy was using this same strategy.
What confused people more was that Vinay had a relaxed expression on his face, while Kajal had a tense expression on her beautiful face. The confused audience looked at each other and found that others also had the same confusion.

"The reason Vinay is using the same strategy and has now even started summoning weaker summons is simple: In the battle of mages, the one who loses Mana first loses in the long run. So they need to use their Mana effectively; the cost of summoning undead is less than summoning lightning bolts, due to which if this continued, Kajal would be at a disadvantage," replied Ronny.
This changed the atmosphere; those who were criticizing Vinay for being dumb started praising him. The supporters of Kajal also became worried. They had full confidence that their idol would not lose, but the situation was making them concerned about her.
Kajal was already thinking of ways to escape this cycle when her eyes lit up suddenly. She waited for Vinay to summon more undead, and when Vinay had summoned more than twenty undead, she cast her 'whirpool' spell. This Spell pulled all the undead in the area around Vinay into one place; Vinay needed to use his momentary Spell to escape.
The next moment, a powerful lightning bolt hit the whirlpool, and all undead were eliminated due to lightning chaining from one undead to another. This caused an uproar in the crowd; no one had thought Kajal would use such a method. When she stopped for some time, they thought she was tired and low on Mana, but now that they looked back, It looked like a bluff to make Vinay lose his guard.
The next moment Kajal used 'surf' and rode a wave to approach next to her opponent; a bead of sweat appeared on Vinay's face. He summoned his defensive Spell, preparing for a powerful attack, but Kajal just activated the ability to her Magic Staff, 'Instant Cast, again and used the Lightning Storm' Spell again.
After a short time, Vinay realized that he had looked at the girl sitting on a throne wearing a crown made up of lightning. Inside this area, there was nothing much he could do. She would not give him any time to cast a spell. For a mage, this Spell was deadly. At last, he sighed and admitted defeat.
If he wanted, he could have struggled until time passed, but there was no need for it. It hasn't been long since he became a necromancer. He was still lacking in fundamentals; no matter how many spells he knew, they were all useless if he could not use them.
When others saw him admit defeat without trying hard, they were disappointed; even Kajal was looking at him with her eyes widened. No one could believe that he would give up like that, but this was what it was to be a necromancer. He was still not able to create powerful undead by himself. If he had, he could have instantly summoned them.
It was not that he was not talented. In the past few months, he has focused his efforts on mastering different types of spells. He didn't focus on building his summons, but he was not at all concerned. Something took time. He was progressing at his own pace.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmRonny, would you like to comment on anything about the previous battle?" asked the commentator.
"What a battle! Both mages performed extraordinary feats." Kajal might have won this battle, but it doesn't make her better than Vinay. The problem is that in both class and element, Kajal had an advantage against Vinay. It takes some time for the Dark Mage to grow. Once they have started building their summons, that is when they start showing their true power," said Ronny.
After this battle, it was finally time for the finals. The time was decided after half an hour. It was done after asking both participants. Everyone was excited about the battle, including Rishi. More students have joined the Battle arena; the battles of the senior students have finished, so they have decided to look at the final battle.
Rishi was sitting on his seat thinking about how to proceed when he noticed someone had sat beside him. At first, he was not concerned, but he suddenly felt that the atmosphere around him had become chilly. He moved his eyes and noticed that someone wearing a skirt was sitting next to him.
Her smooth legs were visible to him. He blushed and looked away from the height; he could guess it was a senior. He decided to ignore her, but he suddenly felt everyone was looking at him strangely. At first, he was not able to understand what was going on, but soon he noticed the eyes were not on him but on the girl next to him.
He shifted his gaze and turned his head slowly. What appeared before him was a beautiful face. A pretty girl with clear green eyes was looking at him with a smile on her face. His silver hair was tied in a ponytail. At first he was awestruck, but when he suddenly looked at her eyes, He could find a hint of madness concealed behind them.
His heartbeat started rising as he recognized this face, and his body moved backward as if it were in danger. The girl used this opportunity to move further close to him; he was not even able to breathe seeing her this close to him. When other boys looked at this scene, they were jealous, but not for long. They soon remembered the previous incident with Sameer and decided it was not worth the risk.
There were still some brave souls in the crowd. They were ready to get hurt by thorns and pay the price of blood to get to the flower. For a close look, they were ready to risk it, but unfortunately, little did they know that the flower they were approaching was poisoned. All their efforts were in vain.
