CH10: First Stage

CH10: First Stage

Today is the day the competition starts. The competition was held in the Noble’s Academy, as they had a bigger stadium that could fit both schools and many spectators. There were many noble and commoner families. The stadium was divided into two. The right was were the nobles were and the left had the commoners. The royal family themselves had come to see their son and daughter compete. The participants were in a resting area. There they can warm up and watch the fight up close. I was sitting with the rest of the spectators

The matches were about to begin. In the middle of the field, the announcer appeared. He looked to be in his late 30’s, with brown hair, standard built and with a loud voice he spoke

Announcer: “Ladies and Gentleman, Welcome to the First Stage of the ‘Royal Narth School Competition’. In the first stage 5 students will be selected to represent Dorama Kingdom in the second stage of this competition. The selection method is quiet simple, one student from the commoner school will fight one student from the noble school and the winner will become one of the five to represent Dorama Kingdom. This will continue until all five spots have been filled

Now without further ado. Let’s begin the first match”

*HURRAH*

Loud cheers were heard from the crowd. The cheering was mostly done by the boys and some male adults

Announcer: “Representing the ‘Royal Noble Academy’ Dettol Xperia and his opponent from the ‘Royal Commoner Academy’ Lg Nike. BEGIN”

The first two matches have finished. The winners were the nobles and cheering from the commoners side had become softer. Now it was time for the third match.

Announcer: “Things aren’t looking too great for the commoner academy. Now the third match. From the ‘Commoner academy’ Internet Security and from the ‘Noble Academy’ Seira Enno Lily”

As soon as I heard her name, I stood up with a face that showed a happy, excited and thrilled expressions, all at the same time

She walked out of the nobles resting area and onto the field. She looked beautiful, more so then the first time I saw her. She faced her opponent with eyes that were burning with fire

Her opponent was some random guy with a sword that I didn’t know

Announcer: “BEGIN”

He rushed forward, straight to her, closing the gap of 50 meters in a few seconds. He swung his sword sideways, aiming at her hip. She jumped backwards, while casting a spell. As she landed, she shoots three water spears straight at him. He sidesteps them and again heads towards her while casting a spell of his own. He shoots lighting straight at her, she creates a lighting barrier that nullifier his lighting

The two were fighting for about 5 minutes until Seira Made the finishing blow. She won. The noble boys and girls were cheering for her. But the commoners showed a sad expression, as if they have lost all hope

Me: ‘That’s my girl’

Asmodeus: ‘She’s not yours yet boya’

Me: ‘Grrr’

Unlike the other winners, she goes to where her opponent was laying. Seeing that she was coming his way, the guy stood up and gave a deep bow. She smiles and says something to him before walking off. The guy’s face was bright red. That piss me off. So I left my seat and headed off towards the resting area for our school

I entered the resting area, there were only the three students, as the fourth one had left for her match. I go up to the boy that Seira fought with and angrily asked him

Me: “What did she say that made you blush like a little girl meeting Justin bi*ber for the first time”

Internet: “Who the hell is that?”

Me: “Nevermind who he is. Just answer the question”

Internet: “She said that it was a great match”

Me: “Ohh. That’s good then”

I head towards the field entrances with a massive grin, waiting for my name to be called. I can’t wait to impress her

The fourth match lasted about 10 minutes. It could’ve gone either way, but the noble brat had an extra attribute, while gave him the advantage. The commoner kid heads towards where I am standing and the noble brat went the other direction. As soon as the noble kid enters the waiting area, a douchebag like figure appears, approaching the field

Announcer: “Ladies and Gentleman, now for the final match of the first stage of the ‘Royal Narth School Competition’ representing the ‘Royal Noble Academy’ Prince Rubix Enno Lily and his opponent from the ‘Royal Commoner Academy’ Lanza Del Relampago”

Prince, Seira’s older brother. This will be interesting. Upon hearing my name, I head to the field. Stopping just around 50-60 meters from the prince. Boo’s could be heard from the nobles side, some even telling me to go die and sh*t

Rubix: “*Hmpf*. Look here commoner, if you surrender right now, then I will let you leave without pain”

The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.

Me: “….”

Rubix: “W-what, are you ignoring me”

Me: “….”

Rubix: “How dare you. You are a mere commoner, and yet you ignore me. Your future king!”

Me: “….”

Rubix: “Fine. I will show you the difference between us”

Announcer: “BEGIN”

*BOOOMM*

“…………………”

It all happened in an instant. The only thing everyone saw was that in a blink of an eye, I was standing were the prince had stood and the doors to the nobles resting area was now broken. Silence had surrounded the entire stadium. No one spoke. Not even the king

What I did was child’s play. I used fire flight at 15% and fire fist at 5% and hit the prince on the chest. This only took 5% of my total mana

Roughly 30 seconds later, Rubix appeared from the broken doors, injured and wobbly. Blood was coming out from the side of his head and nose. His neat cloths, were now filthy and ripped. His breathing was heavy and unsteady

Rubix: “*Huff* w-w-what did *huff* y-y-you do”

Me: “….”

Asmodeus: ‘Oi boya’

Me: ‘What’

Asmodeus: ‘Why don’t you use your new flame on him’

Me: ‘An experiment?’

Asmodeus: ‘Why not. You haven’t used it anyways. Now’s a good a time as any’

Me: ‘hehehe’

Let’s embarrass him a little

He is making his way towards me, slowly, barely able to stay on his feet. The perfect test subject. I gather a light pink flame on my left hand and shoot it towards Rubix. He can’t dodge it. The flame enters through his nose and makes it way to his brain and I also closed my eyes

Me: “Lustful Dream”

Rubix fell on his knees, tears falling down his face and in a low and shaky voice he says

Rubix: “I-i-i s-surrender”

----------

What I did was quiet difficult, when the pink flames entered Rubix’s brain, it showed him what he lust’s after, in his cases it was wealth, power, women and fame. I established a link between the pink flame and myself, so by closing my eyes I entered Rubix’s ‘Lustful Dream’ and little by little, I took away everything he had. I spoke to him in his dream, as I was able to move freely and he was not

Me: “Surrender or else it will get worse”

That’s the reason why he surrendered

Me: “And you will not remember any of this dream”

With that, he also forgot everything about it

----------

Back to the match

Announcer: “T-the prince has surrendered. The winner is Lanza from the commoner academy”

The stadium was still in silence, until a commoner boy stood up and with a loud voice

* HURRAH*

Seeing the boy, the rest of the commoners all started to cheer as well

*HUUURRRRRAAAAAHHHHHHH*

While the nobles were in disbelieve

----------

Seira POV

After my match I made my way to where my family was

It all happened in an instant. The boy, Lanza stood where my brother was, and my brother was nowhere to be seen. I was shocked and speechless. Not just me, but no one within the entire stadium uttered a single word

I saw the resting area for my school. The door for it was broken and within a few seconds, my brother emerged from within it. He was beaten up pretty badly and was barely able to stand. He made his way back to the field, but as he was doing that. Lanza created a beautiful pink flame and shot it towards my brother and it just disappeared

Seconds later, my brother fell on his knees and surrendered the match. It was still silence, until a boy from the commoner’s school started cheering, followed by the rest

Lanza had turned around and was leaving for the resting area, when my brother started to do something. He used his light attribute to heal himself a bit and combined water and wind attributes to create an ‘Ice’ attributed spear and shot it towards Lanza’s back

No one dared to stop him, as he was the prince and whoever did interfere would be punished by my father, the king.

As the spear was about to hit Lanza. Intense flames erupted from him and covered his entire body. The flames melted the ice spear. Horror filled everyone’s face, such power, such pressure, I have never felt it in my entire life

Lanza didn’t even stop, he just continued walking with those flames. As he reached the entrances for the resting area, the flames disappeared with his figure
