Crimson Overlord

Miss Quinn sighed; she had expected Snow to be strong but not to this extent.

‘Hah! This year has a lot of monsters. Well, let’s continue watching.’

Snow stared in Orpheus’s direction when she was retreating, and Orpheus happened to be looking at her at that moment, his lips curled up as if to say I would be waiting for our fight.

And for the first time, Snow smiled. It was like she was responding to Orpheus’s provocation.

”Let’s continue. The next match will be between Andrea Rillet and Rhodes Solon.” Their teacher the next match. Delia’s big brother went on the stage, followed by a girl.

On the ring, facing each other, was Andrea Rillet, the crown princess from Westham kingdom affiliates to Cherry Blossom empire; on the other side, was Rhodes Solon, Crown prince of Akam kingdom, one of the Elven empire vassals Kingdoms. They all possess the power of earth origin attribute.

After the signal was given, it was Andrea who attacked first.

She tapped her left leg hard on the ground immediately, and many [Earth Spikes] was created and sent coming straight from the ground wanting to skewer Rhodes in the middle; he also tapped his right leg hard on the ground, saying [Earth Blast] a shock wave of pure force was sent obliterating Andrea attack, Andrea appeared on the right of Rhodes on mud wave, using that she became faster enough to avoid Rhodes earth blast.

Rhodes continued by tapping twice on the ground, saying [Earth Ball] many spheres of earth were created and launched toward Andrea’s location; she, on the other side, on her mud wave, turned left, avoiding the first earth spheres. Right avoiding another earth sphere, she repeated that like some kind of dance.

Rhodes aimed at Andrea with [Earth Bullet], hundreds of earth bullets from all sides attacking her in the middle. Andrea made her mud wave rotate on herself as she performed a technique called [Earth Breath]; earth blasts were discharged from her mouth towards the incoming earth bullets; she stealthily shot dozens of earth bullets toward Rhodes.

Rhodes, on the side, was surprised, not expecting that kind of advanced technique to come from Andrea. He underestimated human progress.

However, he still didn’t let his guard down; noticing the incoming earth bullets, he tapped his two hands on the ground, immediately creating a thick earth wall in front of him to intercept the incoming earth bullets. Hundreds of earth bullets come raining down on the earth wall wanting to pierce through it; alas, Rhodes’s earth wall was too thick.

Andrea executed her secret technique when Rhodes was turtling himself behind his wall; she created arm length earth spear before teleporting via earth to appear from the ground behind Rhodes, wanting to finish him.

Rhodes was surprised, not expecting something like that. He was surprised to witness the famous technique [Terraportation] coming from the human girl because he also knew that technique; it was one of the dark elves’ royal techniques. You can use the earth around you to teleport, appearing from the ground, but still, he was not the crown prince or Delia’s brother for nothing; he immediately sent earth blast into the ground where he stood, using the shockwave as propulsion, his propelled himself high into the sky.

Once in the sky, he counterattacks by creating an earth bow firing dozens of earth arrows toward Andrea, but he didn’t see a panicked or startled expression coming from Andrea, frowning not understanding, but immediately deep alarms started ringing in his mind that he exposed himself in the air without anywhere to hide

”Shit,” he swore, wanting to turn around, but, Andrea had already executed her following technique called [Earth Pillar]; two earth pillars are projected from the ground toward Rhodes, skewering him in the middle; Andrea followed by throwing two earth spears toward him likes javelins which were almost trapped.

Rhodes hastily covered himself in full earth armor and also strengthened his two hands, using them to blast a hole in one of the earth pillars; he rapidly used that hole to climb up the earth pillar, managing to avoid one of the earth spears, the other managed to pierce through his full body earth armor, the tip was lodged slightly into his right shoulder.

He didn’t even catch his breath before sensing Andrea behind him; seems having created another earth pillar and used it to come behind him, holding an already drawn earth bow.

Chuckling his admitted defeat.

”I guess it’s my loss; I must admit that you’re creative, like my sister. I hope you two will become good friends in the future.”

After he announced his surrender, he was immediately ejected from the ring. Andrea bowed, acknowledging him, but she looked rather pale and haggard; blood was flowing out her left arm where one of Rhodes’s previous earth arrows managed to pierce.

Clapping sounds soon erupted from the crowd; they acknowledged this fight which was also a wonderful fight full of creativity, especially Andrea, who seemed to have predicted all Rhodes’s moves.

”What a great fight, the last matches it’s becoming more wonderful, Andrea Rillet is the winner of this round. The next match for this round will shortly start. Leon Vs. Nicolas Jones.”

Immediately Leon, crown prince of the Wratharis Empire, went up on the ring, followed by Nicolas Jones, crown prince of The Twin kingdoms affiliated to Wratharis Empire.

”Start”

Nicolas Jones, holding a spear (3 meters long), had already taken an attack stance; he sent a hundred thrusts left and right toward Leon, who had his head down.

Leon, without lifting his head just with the sound of the incoming thrusts, managed to avoid it by tilting his head rapidly left and right, bending slightly afterward; he performs a Quick Draw sending a dozen lightning slashes towards Nicolas.

Nicolas immediately returned his spear into a defensive stance by parting his legs left and right; he rapidly thrust his spear towards the incoming lightning slash; he deflected all of them aside before disappearing in a flash and reappearing behind Leon sending dozens of spear thrusts toward his defenseless back, but Leon distance himself from him like a bolt of lightning before facing him as they started exchanging dozens of moves in lightning speed moving around the ring leaving afterimage.

*Clang* *Clang* *Clang*

A sword and a spear collide, creating sparks in the air.

Leon discharged lightning from his body, sending it to all directions with him at the center; Nicolas retreated in a flash, avoiding being electrocuted by the lightning discharged; he held his spear straight before saying [Speed Velocity]. He started rotating on himself at high-speed, thus creating a giant tornado with him at the center.

The tornado was directed towards Leon; sometimes you could see spear tip coming from inside the tornado in unpredictable manners; Leon pointed his sword towards the sky saying [Rain of Lightning], immediately the sky clouded and a bolt of two hundred lightning is formed pointing downwards, he lowered his pointed sword towards the incoming tornado, lightning rained down on it, Nicolas in the center of the tornado accelerated, the tornado becomes bigger generating slight lightning which clashed with the rain of lightning *Chi* *Chi* *Chi* blinding light was emitted from the clash, after while the rain of lightning stopped, but the tornado continued toward Leon, but the size decreased.

Leon faced the incoming tornado by taking a Quick Draw stance; he held the sword in the scabbard slightly longer before performing two speedy quickdraws, sending two big horizontal slashes of blue lightning towards the tornado cleaving it in two.

Nicolas increased his speed to the limits becoming too fast for naked eyes to follow; the only thing you could see was a flash of lightning. He managed to escape the fate of the being cleaved in two.

The two faced each other again, starting another high-speed clash, Nicolas with his super-speed, and Leon with his partially transformed lightning legs (he performed one of his trump cards [Lightning Body], he could partially transform some part of his body into lightning to avoid damage or in this particular case to increase his speed ten folds.) he managed not to fall behind in speed, as they clashed continuously for a while before coming into a silent agreement to ends the fight in their next moves.

Thus, they distanced themselves from each other, Leon at the edge of the ring, and Nicolas also at the other edge of the ring. Nicolas performs one of his trump cards called [Speed Divide]; immediately, Nicolas is divided into five clones of himself, equipped all with spears as their take an attacking stance. Leon, since the start, had never once opened his eyes; he took deep breaths for a while before taking his favorite Quick Draw stance, this time by tightly holding the sheath containing his sword with his left hand while his other hand was on the guard of his sword.

The six Nicolas attacked first at the same time with extreme speed. Six hundred thrusts were lunched towards Leon.

He abruptly opened his golden eyes, which flashed slightly in blue before saying.

[The World]

Immediately when he had removed his sword from his sheath, he disappeared in a flash; nobody managed to see him after that, not even Nicolas; few people in the spectators’ seats managed to see him.

The crowd only saw that Leon’s position didn’t even change from the start; he was still in his quick draw stance, but the difference this time was, that instead of removing the sword of the sheath, he was returning it.

The crowd burst in uproar after noticing that the six Nicolas became one again, but the original Nicolas was on his knees with his spear cleaved in two, and he had a large sword cut on his chest where blood was flowing out from. Nicolas Jones. had lost.

Leon was declared victor of this last fight, and Nicolas was immediately sent to the infirmary to receive treatment.

Finally, the crowd understood what had happened in the last exchange; they shuddered, thinking about Leon’s last technique. He was too fast; not even spirit perception could help them locate him.

Orpheus nodded his head thinking Leon’s technique was not bad; he would like to face it before crushing it. Just by imagining what kind of face he would make once that happened. He couldn’t help but grin.
