159 Top 32! 3

"WINNER! LUCIA YUKIHIME!!"

"Haha! Thanks Apocalyptic Queen! That was a fun match!" Gus August merrily said before his Vice Leader shouldered him off of the stage.

Lucia did a martial salute just like Cecil would do and walked off the stage. She arrived back at the waiting room and plopped down next to Cecil and began hugging him.

"...what're you doing?" Cecil asked, not understanding why she'd suddenly do this.

"Recharging..."

"...what're you a battery?"

"Hmu..."

The next match was quickly announced and Audrey got up from her seat. She walked to the stage and waited for the Vice President of the Student Council.

The battle began as soon as the Student Council Vice President got onto the stage. The entire fight comprised of Audrey maintaining her distance as she fired spell after spell at her opponent. Any normal student would have long since been defeated, but Audrey's opponent was a former King.

He was a person whose power was on par with hers. Even though the fight looked like it was tilting in the favor of Audrey, but Alex wasn't one to easily give up. He had already experienced a huge loss to Cecil and he didn't want to be further humiliated.

Alex fired combat skill after combat skill at Audrey in retaliation. The skills and spells either clashed together in mid-air or cancelled each other out. If not, then they were deflected and sent veering off to the side, causing immense damage to the stage.

Both sides hadn't once landed a clear blow onto the other. The situation soon changed when Audrey had momentarily paused in firing out her spells. Alex capitalized on this momentary gap and flickered next to Audrey.

He caught her off guard and slammed his halberd onto her body. The Disaster Queen had swiftly set up a wind barrier around her in hopes of repelling or deflecting the attack, but Alex had still managed to land a blow onto her body.

Audrey was sent smas.h.i.+ng down towards the ring, but she cus.h.i.+oned her fall using wind spells and shouted.

"TEMPEST!"

This shout alone caused Alex to widen his eyes in a panic. Around him a large 2-fold green magic formation formed. The air began to twist and turn and soon a large gale storm was formed in the air above the fighting stage.

Alex was exactly in the middle of this storm and he could only toughen up his body and grit his teeth. He endured the pain from the magic spell and thankfully for him, his protective enchantment hadn't broken despite all the damage. He was still in the game!

"d.a.m.n...I fell for your trap Audrey...but now, you can't do much! HAAAAAHHH!!" Alex came out with plenty of cuts from the Tempest Spell, but at least he was able to endure though it.

Audrey, who had finished casting such a big spell, was very low on mana. The weakness was visible on her face, so when Alex rushed down to her, swinging his halberd at her face, Audrey could only try to delay by flailing her whip at the Vice President.

Alex didn't give any regard to the weak whip lashes and pressed forward. He quickly arrived in front of Audrey and smashed his halberd into her side. The Disaster Queen had run out of mana from her previous spell so she was helpless.

She had set up a meticulous trap for her opponent, but she didn't think he would be able to endure through her Pseudo High-tiered magic spell. Her body was smashed out of the ring and the protective enchantment immediately broke and she lost consciousness.

Anixio and Anixia worriedly rushed out of the room and soon arrived by her side. The two carried their big sis over to the infirmary. Anixio left Alex an ultimatum stating that he would definitely take revenge and beat him!

Alex only laughed at it and said, "I probably won't make it past the next round y'know~ I'm facing the Apocalyptic Queen after all~"

"Cheh..."

"WINNER! Alex Silverfang!!"

Unfortunately, a King of the Academy had finally lost a round. Everyone had kept a clean win-streak and it was the first that someone from their echelon had lost a match.

"Well...you win some, you lose some." Cecil said.

"It was inevitable." Sword King Robert said.

"What do you mean?"

"Audrey...she was the weakest of our generation's Kings. Alex Silverfang, Serilla Lunarts, and Zephyr Arks, the 3 former Kings, were all much more powerful than her."

"Oh, I see...what about you Robert? You think you can defeat Zephyr?"

"Not sure...back then he was stronger than me. But recently when we fought, we couldn't determine the winner even after we had fully exhausted ourselves."

"So you're about even?"

"Not sure...Zephyr's a shrewd fellow. I can't guarantee that he went all out during our fight. Just taking a glimpse at Zephyr's power during his fight with Elizabeth...he has without a doubt grown much more powerful, and I feel like he's still hiding some things from everyone."

"...Yeah. I feel the same. He's strong that's without a doubt. But, you shouldn't down play yourself. I'm pretty sure you didn't pull out all stops when you sparred with him a while back, right?"

"Of course, it was only a spar after all."

"Exactly, now you can use all your skills without restraints up on that stage, so don't sweat it!"

"Hahaha... To hear that from the Combat King, I'm gratified." Robert chuckled.

Cecil shrugged and returned to his seat at the back of the room. Lucia immediately began to hug him again in the name of 'recharging'. Recharging what? Even Cecil didn't know, but he felt it was okay to let Lucia act spoiled. She did do a good job in the last battle.

The third battle went on; it was a fight between two vice presidents. The 4th battle finished quickly, it was the vice president of the Ironforge Faction and he was up against Anixia. Anixia made quick work of the non-combatant partic.i.p.ant and ended the match early.

The fifth match was Yuna vs. the Alchemist Faction's Leader, Manden Krulle. It was a shame, but Yuna's skill set was similar to Fina's.

They both specialized in crowd control magic. Yuna's fight was similar to Fina's. All she did was keep her distance and froze, cut and battered the Blade Ursa with wind and water elemental magic spells.

She didn't even use her unique Mist magic. The battle pet was quickly dispatched. What can you say? Manden Krulle just had bad luck with the match ups. Although she had steered clear away from Fina and wouldn't have met her until the Semi-finals, she just had to face against Yuna whose fighting style and skillset were somewhat similar.

A day was a little too short, so Manden didn't have any time to readjust or strengthen her battle pet to help her face off against opponents who were similar to Fina.

"WINNER! Yunaria Yukihime!!"

Yuna quickly made her back into the waiting room. She sat down in a seat and said,

"Well, I'm done. Next is..."

"Me...huff... time to go." Fina said as she stood up.

Her face was determined and she walked off towards the stage.

"Aquafina Neftersea vs. Serilla Lunarts!!!"

It was a matchup between the sole support member of Little Kings and the next Sword Saintess candidate.

Lucia was no longer clinging onto Cecil. Instead she was sitting in the front of the room with Eli and Velicia. They were worried for their friend, since she had to face off against a Sword Maiden who might become the next Sword Saintess.

Not only that, Serilla Lunarts was also a former Academy King. Her abilities were already on par with Fina, if not stronger. Fina's 3 friends couldn't help, but worry for her. No matter what, they wanted Fina to win!

Up on the stage, Fina had begun stretching and loosening her body. She quickly summoned her 2 mana armaments. Then more mana armaments formed in the air around her. They levitated around her and began orbiting around her defensively.

*Yawn*

The Sword Maiden, Sword Saintess-candidate, former Academy Queen and Student Council Secretary Serilla Lunarts yawned loudly in exhaustion. Then she began mumbling inaudible complaints, while she readied her slender single-edged long sword.

She pointed the tip at Fina and her drowsy eyes and exhausted demeanor immediately changed. It was like she had turned into a magic sword that was pulled out of its scabbard. The dangerous air that surrounded her gave the misconception that she had no openings at all.

Fina tightened her grip onto her 2 armaments and she lowered her body into the stance that Cecil taught her. Her body lit up with many strengthening spells and skills. The same was likewise with Serilla.

The audience was already boiling over. The two fighters were both cute and silent girls, but the serious and intimidating vibes that they gave off only served to enhance their charms.

The referee saw that they were ready and announced the start of the match.

"Aquafina Neftersea vs. Serilla Lunarts! FIGHT!!"
