Chapter 196: Semifinal

By the time Angus and Jayna come from the private waiting room, the last match between Ice Maiden and a magician called Houst is already over.

The winner of the match is Ice Maiden, as she turns the quarter of the massive stone platform arena into a freezing field. Both Angus and Jayna are surprised looking at this. They know exactly how much power it needs to turn the arena into this state.

Feeling the power in the freezing field, "Angus…" said Jayna while looking at Angus.

"Yes, she has the ancient power. It seems to be related to ice." said Angus as he also felt the strange power in the freezing field that lacked mana on it.

Normally, big-scale spells that change the environment will leave a tremendous amount of mana surrounding it. However, the current freezing field lacks this kind of mana. There are two possibilities of this phenomenon.

First, it is because of the high elemental mastery of the user. However, this kind of mastery needed to be at the pinnacle level that only a few people could reach, which is quite impossible for a third-grade combatant to do.

Only the sixth and possibly fifth-grade combatants have this kind of elemental mastery. So,? it leaves to the next possible answer that is the power of Ancient Power.

Unlike ordinary skill, spell, or another mana-based attack, Ancient Power is a supernatural power that only uses a little bit of mana to create such a devastating effect. It is a power based on the user similar to skill yet also different.

The deeper the user's knowledge, experience, and understanding regarding the Ancient Power, the better its effect. It is even possible to use it without the need for mana after reaching a certain level.

As the Ancient Power user, both Angus and Jayna also realize this fact from their experience using Ancient Power in the last few days.

With this in mind, Jayna begins to look at the Ice Maiden in interest. As someone that inherits Fire Phoenix power and [Hellfire] ancient power, she feels challenged to fight over someone that uses ice-type ancient power, the opposite element of her.

Feeling Jayna's intentions glaring, the Ice Maiden looks at Jayna back after getting out of the arena. Angus somehow could feel an illusion spark between the two of them.

Then, he decides to leave the two girls having their fight. This leaves him to fight the dark elf Miesta. The dark elf, Miesta, seem to notice the two girls' battle intent and decide to leave them alone.

Since the Ice maiden has just finished fighting, this makes Angus and Miesta match next. Without wasting any moment, the two of them immediately went towards the arena to complete the procedure before the match.

After finishing the procedure, both of them enter the waiting room to prepare themself. Usually, the fighter will fight as soon as possible, but Angus and Miesta decided to prepare something before the match.

Angus also didn't have any problem with this decision since he feels that Miesta is different from others. He also needs to prepare a little bit for his fight.

Angus began to wear various protective enchanted item clothes and hide a few hidden weapons in his clothes. He also did not forget to check his rune magic card.

His instinct as a fighter tells him that Miesta is a powerful opponent. Combined with the rumor of her being a dark elf makes him look forward to this fight. He feels he could go all out without holding back in this fight. Still, he needs some safety precautions first.

After checking his equipment, Angus does some light stretching while waving Sky Thorn. Soon, it's time to get out of the waiting room.

At this moment, Angus's mind is focused on the battle and doesn't care about anything except the fight. Various battle scenarios are running inside his head with the help of [Analyze].

Looking at Angus's first serious expression while completely ignoring everything, Jayna couldn't help but sigh at her boyfriend's behavior.

"Haa… Boys." muttered Jayna.

But, she decides to let it slide since her battle instinct also tells her that Miesta is not an easy opponent.

In the end, she could only cheer her from the audience seat along with the other Sur village group. Entering the area, both Angus and Miesta wear different sets of clothes. All the audience could see that both of them were wearing highly enchanted clothes.

Without even the announcer, the audience is already cheering the moment looking at Angus and Miesta. Both of them are winning candidates that are popular among the audience.

Miesta wears a set of black-colored clothes with a black cloth mask on her face leaving only her upper face. On her side, there is a pair of daggers that she used before. She also has two curved blades on her back. Angus also found a few other hidden weapons inside her clothes.

On the other side, Angus wears another set of highly enchanted clothes with few red tones and decorations. There is an emblem of V on the back of his clothes. This is one of the clothes he got from his father.

Looking at Agnus's clothes, the clan head Jade couldn't help but sense pride. Although he already abandons the Victory family name, he is still one of the descendants of the Victory family.

Unlike Miesta, Angus didn't hold a single weapon in his hand, but nobody knows he hid a few hidden weapons like needles and daggers in his loose clothes.

Arriving in the middle of the arena, both of them stay a few meters away from each other. After the arena's barrier is fully erected, the announcer and the referee start the match simultaneously.

Miesta immediately dashes towards Angus while Angus shoots a few firebolts towards her. Miesta easily dodges Angus's Firebolts while keeping moving forwards.

Before Angus could cast another spell, Miesta threw her dagger towards Angus. In a split second, Angus crouches, dodging the dagger while tapping the stone arena [2nd Circle - Earth Wall].

As the ground below Angus rose, Miesta didn't stop her charge and even increased her speed. Suddenly, she ran vertically on the Earth Wall towards Angus. But Angus also didn't stay idle either. He shot a few Firebolts towards Miesta below.

Despite the unfavorable position, Miesta still managed to dodge Angus's fast Firebolt using her super reflex and keep approaching him. Looking at the approaching Miesta, Angus decided to jump towards the opposite side of Miesta.

While in the air, Angus shoots two Fireballs towards the Earth Wall. *Bom* *Bom* Landing on the ground, Angus immediately tried to prepare a few spells. At this moment, he feels a dangerous feeling behind his back.

Angus immediately crouches to dodge the Miesta's attack from behind. He didn't know how Miesta managed to get behind him unnoticed, but Angus decided to create distance first.

However, Miesta already launched her follow-up attack using her twin dagger [Dagger art - Flurry Slash]. It takes everything for Angus to keep dodging her attacks. Angus couldn't even counterattack her using the Firebolt spell even once.

Suddenly, Miesta throws a hidden dagger towards Angus, which he dodges easily. In the next moment, Miesta swung her arm widely, only for Angus to have an opportunity to retreat back.

Before Angus could counter with Firebolt, Miesta disappears from her spot, and Angus feels another dangerous sensation from his back. At this split second, Angus dodged to the side, but Miesta's dagger still hit Angus's back.

Fortunately, a barrier erected and enveloped Angus at the right time, protecting his body from Miesta's dagger. Before she could make another follow-up attack, Angus's body becomes after image and disappears on the spot [Beast Walk].

Angus appears a few meters away from Miesta. Angus's fast movement skill surprised Miesta for a moment.

'Interesting… She even forced me to use [Beast Walk].' thought Angus inwardly while grinning happily.

Then, Angus shoots a few firebolts towards her. This attack wakes Miesta from her surprise, and she decides to charge at Angus while dodging the firebolts.

Unlike before, Angus decided to charge back at her. In the middle of running, Angus wears a gauntlet from his wristwatch storage in his right hand. Suddenly, Angus accelerated using the [Beast Walk].

Before Miesta could react, she got punched in her face by Angus [Iron Fist]. *Bam* However, a mana barrier managed to protect her in time before cracking from Angus's strong punch.

Miesta tried to counterattack, but she underestimated Angus's strength and got thrown back a few meters away.

"Is that all?? I hear Dark elf are supposed to be great at combat. But, it seems that's just an exaggerated rumor." taunted Angus while he wore another gauntlet in his left hand.

Miesta didn't reply towards Angus taunting. It is not that she didn't want to respond. But, it is because she feels like in front of a powerful predator. A predator that stays at the top of the food chain looks down on everything.

As a dark elf, she is susceptible to this kind of thing. Right now, It takes her every being to calm down her mind and keep focusing on the current fight.
