God of Tricksters

Chapter 226 - Battle Royale (4)

"Gah!" Harrison spat a mouthful of blood and flew to the air.

It was supposed to be a perfect hit, but Ellen surprisingly dropped to the ground as she spat a mouthful of blood.

Cough.

Ellen clenched her teeth and glared at Harrison, realizing that he could react to her attack. No, he simply didn't mind that Ellen hit him as long as she also got hit too. And in that instant, he summoned a fist to hit her stomach and reinforced it like what he did to the water sword.

"Ellen?" Laust widened his eyes, confused as to what happened. He only knew Harrison had something to do with it.

"It seems that none of you know the background of my blessing… Not only my strength, but I can also control water." Harrison smirked and raised his hand, lifting the water and forming it into a human figure. The water gradually rose and expanded into a twenty-foot-tall figure. "After all, I'm a whale. Let's try it again, should—"

Before he finished, he soon realized that his golem exploded. He stopped and turned around, finding the culprit. "Ratu Ayu…"

"I think you're underestimating me a little bit." Ratu snorted.

Ellen and Laust could only look at these two abnormal people. They realized if they were alone, they would have a hard time dealing with them. This also showed that those who received a blessing were also not a nobody.

They had a certain talent that piqued the interest of the one that gave them the blessing. That was why they could shine brighter than most people.

Of course, there were also many great people without having a blessing. But Laust and Ellen were not at their level yet.

Even so, it didn't mean they couldn't fight them.

Ellen rose from the ground with a smile on her face. She wiped the blood on her mouth and raised her staff. "Water and Ice, it's obvious that I'm superior."

She pierced the shallow water and tapped the ground. "Frosty Misty."

A white fog appeared on the battlefield as the temperature dropped drastically, turning the water into ice again. This time, even if Harrison struck the ice, they would soon become ice again.

Laust understood this move and leaped away so as to not get affected by the temperature drop.

To test it, Ratu lifted her finger and formed a ten-foot-tall wave coming toward the fog. However, the water wave froze almost immediately, making Ratu and Harrison realize that they couldn't afford to enter that white mist unless they wanted to get frozen.

Seeing Ellen act like this, Laust couldn't help but stare at her with envy. He wanted to do something too, so everyone remembered his name, but he knew he couldn't do anything to Harrison and Ratu without her help.

He could only clench his fists and thought of another way to win with style.

…

Another battlefield.

Sihan panted as he kept watching his opponents' movement. Unlike Laust and Ellen, Sihan's opponent had no blessing. Yet, it didn't mean they were weak. In fact, because they possessed powerful strength, they were chosen as a representative.

He raised his shield to the left and found Dominic striking his shield with a metal club.

"Kh." Sihan gritted his teeth and took a step back.

But… Dominic also felt some pressure when fighting Sihan. Every time he struck, his heart always skipped a beat to the point he couldn't help but think, 'What's the deal with this guy? He is only blocking my attack the entire time, but I can't shake the feeling that the moment I let my guard down, it's the end for me. Why? His strength is below me, but this feeling haunts me. Should I just risk it?'

Little did he know, Sihan had been training with Radvils in order to master this tactic. He had a few things in his repertoire that he could use to pressure Dominic, but Sihan didn't use any of them because his job here was to buy enough time for the others to defeat their opponents.

After all, the one that had the highest chance to win was Alea and Theo who fought together. Even if their opponents were two team leaders, he believed Theo would do something about it.

Hence, Sihan kept defending and waiting for the right time to move. What gave Dominic that feeling was actually Sihan's footwork. Yes, what Radvils taught him was none other than footwork.

This footwork allowed Sihan to react to any kind of movement with all his repertoire, giving his opponent a sense of fear every time they moved.

Sihan looked at the other two and thought, 'It seems Australia Team is not planning a battle royale here. They're trying to deal with Gunardi and me by themselves instead of taking advantage of their numbers like Theo and Alea or even Laust and Ellen. I am pretty lucky. I can hold back my strength for the main stage.'

…

The fierce battle royale continued as each participant tried to defeat their opponents. Yet, such an exciting battle needed to stop after six minutes since the battle started.

A torrential wind suddenly shook the battlefield as they felt a powerful pressure coming from the center of the battlefield. This kind of pressure wasn't supposed to appear from a student, so they all realized the referee had entered their battle.

"That's enough. We have the winner! Thersland Wins!" The referee appeared on the battlefield and stopped the match with a serious expression.

"What?!" All people looked at the referee with a dumbfounded expression before their vision turned to the flag that was still on the ground.

"How can that be? No one has gotten the flag!"

"That's right."

"Is this rigged?"

All people protested his decision because they clearly had yet to determine the winner. Even Alea and the others felt bad and were as confused as them because they indeed hadn't won.

However, their doubt soon got answered when they heard Phyrill laughed.

"Hahahaha!"

That laughter gained everyone's attention as they looked at Phyrill with a dumbfounded expression.

"Truly… In this competition… I may find so many geniuses whose strength is far above me. However, I fear no one except that guy." Phyrill pointed his finger at Theo. "He scares me."

All of them became even more bewildered as they all looked at Theo, only to find a huge grin on his face.
