An hour has elapsed. On his seat, Phize is drinking water from a water bottle.
The man enters the room and all the attention was focused on him and him solely.
"Get ready students, it's time for the second event. Stand up and follow me," he reported.
The students leave their water bottles and follow the man outside into the wild field arena.
"Woah," Phize thought.
The crowd from the stadium went wild and cheered as loud as they could. Amongst the voices, the man went to the center of the arena.
"Alright! Everyone gather up here!"
And as the man commanded, the children were now before him.
"Before we begin our next event, I welcome you all for attending this big event. Our next event is entitled 'Owner of the Sword', it is a celebration represented in a form of a game in big events to honor the swordsmen who fight for our country, Veril. In order to honor those swordsmen, namely the Ten Knights of Heaven."
Two men arrive,
Hazel focused on Phize, she finally received a fight filled with a burning passion."Now, that's what I'm talking about. BUT YOU BETTER CATCH ME FIRST!"She stood up, picked up the swords, and ran to the collector up north.He chased after her."DAMMIT! I'M GONNA HAVE TO USE MAGIC AGAIN AFTER ALL!" he grumbled.He chanted, "ROCK WALL!" and aimed in her direction, forming a wide rock wall in front of her path.She tried going around the wall by heading to the west but a beam shot towards the area."Stop right there.""I'm so close to the collector, are you sure you're gonna be able to keep up with me?"She examined him."What are you gonna do? You know magic isn't gonna stop me from this distance and you don't even have a wooden sword.""ICICLE BARRAGE!"He fired the spell at her, a bunch of icicles head her way but she dodged the projectiles by rolling to her right.She took a glan
Yal and Horka are fighting tons of students approaching them, protecting Trif who is recovering."AH! THEY KEEP COMING! BOSS, WHAT HAPPENED TO YER SPELL?" Yal cried out.Horka hit a student on the head."I GOT ONE!"Behind Trif was Oltrin who was shooting students. One managed to pass through him and pushed him out of the way. He headed for Trif and released a spike.Trif deflected it with a right slash and then punched him in the face.Oltrin apologized, "I'M SO SORRY SIR!""Don't think anything of it.""What happened back there? I cast my spell explosion, but my magical circle suddenly broke. Does someone have Spell Intercept? But that's a magic spell too advanced. But because my spell failed, most of the students went after me. Was it... Could it be Hazel? Or was it... No, impossible. I'm pretty sure that no one here is THAT experienced," he evaluated.He called out to the three of them, "BOYS!"Their attention
The two of them face each other."I can't fight her. I'm feeling extreme fatigue and more than half of my mana is depleted, fighting her would be a bad choice. There's only one choice..."The voice announced, "One of the collectors has been assaulted, please wait patiently for the next substitute who will arrive in around 5 minutes."He sprinted to the collector to his left.She cast a spell, "SLEEP PARALYSIS!" and then positioned it towards him.The spell shot at him and it drew near him. It took his attention."CANCEL!"He slashed his sword toward the spell, causing the spell to disappear into thin magic particles, as well as breaking her magic circle.She bolted to him."She's catching up."She charged with a slash to the right.He ducked under it and scampered toward the collector. But a student bumped into him almost making him slip."WOAH!"He managed to catch himself.She p
A man entered the room."Now that the 32 participants of the third event have been successfully chosen, I shall now explain the rules of the third even-"He noticed the loud snores of Phize."Uh, can someone wake him up?"Hazel raised her hand,"I'll do it."She went close to him and pinched his cheek."Hey sleep head, stop snoring, the rules of the third event are gonna be relayed.""Ow. Ow. Ow. ALRIGHT! ALRIGHT!"He rose."Are you finally awake?" the man asked."Yes, I think so," he said."Alright then, the third event would be team battles, 4 students will go against 4 other students. Sounds simple enough, yes? There will be four 4 versus 4 battles to be conducted, and then the remaining winners of the two battles would then fight, resulting in the remaining 8 students who will be participating in the final event, which is pretty obvious to all of you now, is a face-off with each other."The
An hour passed by.The man entered the room to report."The stage is set, have you all prepared for the third event?"There was silence inside the place."I'll take that as a yes. Come now, follow me outside."The students followed the man outside the stadium. The crowd cheered."The crowd sure is loud," Phize thought.The man went to the middle of the ground and so the students gather before the man."Now, what you've all been waiting for, FOR THE THIRD EVENT, WE WILL BE HAVING... 4v4 TEAM BATTLES!"The crowd cheered."Now the rules are simple, 4 people will be fighting in this ring..."The man pointed to where they stood which is a red ring with a radius of around 10 m."If someone steps around this ring, the person is eliminated. Other than that, they will be engaging in a fight of swords and magic, making use of everything they've learned up until now. The students have been divided into 4 teams,
"Crap, what should I do? I'm in a really bad position," he surmised.He looked at Trif."I should aim for him first, he's the most dangerous one out of them all," he concluded.Yal charged Phize with a slash to the right but Phize dodged to the left and pursued Trif."I have an idea..." he thought."BLIZZARD!"He aimed the spell at Oltrin and Horka for a few seconds and finally at Yal."That should buy me some time," he comprehended."C-Cold..." Oltrin said.Phize approached Trif and attacked with a downward slash but he sidestepped to the left."GOT YOU!"Phize changed the direction of his sword toward the left.Trif instantaneously used his sword to block his strong attack, leaving him staggered."WHA?"He spun around him, gathered force, and stroke Phize's nape."AACK!"He fell to the ground."WHAT? W-WHAT? HIS STRENGTH. IT'S UNLIKE ANY OTHER STUDENT HERE. IT'S T
Trif whispered something in Yal's ear. He proceeded to shout right after, "AH! I GOT SOME IN MY EYE!"Phize's attention was caught and so he found his next prey, "GOTCHA!"He hurried to him.He envisioned a plan, "Time to land with water and-"Oltrin cast a spell, "Surrounding us with a swirl, the living life to all beings, WIND!"He pointed in Phize's direction. The wind spell managed to hit him out of balance."CRAP! HE GOT ME AGAIN!"He viewed his surroundings as he fell, "I need to land safely, QUICK!"He saw an area of the ring which wasn't preoccupied with anyone, so he changed his course and headed to it."THERE!"He cast a spell, "WATE-"Trif quickly darted to where Phize was headed.Yal chanted, "Levitation."He flew over to him."HE'S FLOATING! I HAVE TO LEAVE FAST," Phize evaluated.He reached the same height as him and as soon as he did, he flew over to him and attack
Trif whispered to Horka, "Overwhelm him with attacks. Once you see an opening, kick his sword out of bounds. I'll keep blowing him with attacks, and go for the attack once you see it."Trif faced Phize and released an uppercut.Phize defended against the attack but got his hand and sword above his head in the process."NOW!"From behind, Horka stroked aiming at his neck to the left.Phize tried to bring down his sword to block but was only able to bring it halfway.Phize was alarmed, "OH NO-"His sword is deflected out beyond the ring.Horka glanced at Trif and he nodded back.Horka chanted, "REPEL!""IT'S SO CLOSE! I'M NOT SURE I CAN CANCEL IT!" Phize worried.The force created by the spell was proceeding toward him."I HAVE TO TRY!"......"CANCEL!"The magic circle broke and the spell disappeared into thin air."NO!" Trif yelled.Phize faced Trif
