Murmurs about ending the match soon were heard in the audience from time to time as the match was being stretched out due to the fight between Kacie and Rebecca which was nowhere close to coming to a conclusion. They were still not able to bring each other down. Kacie had been trying to consume all the mana of the opponent and she had quite successfully carried out her task. Kacie had never once thought of beating Rebecca by herself after all, she might just have been the worst match up for her in all honesty. The reason was that she relied on manipulating weapons while Rebecca specialized in full body defense that was as hard as diamond. The match up itself was asking for the fight to be prolonged since Kacie couldn't penetrate her defenses even if she tried and Rebecca wasn't perceptive enough to deduce the stealthy attacks in advance.
The result was a stalemate that was currently boring the audience. It didn't take long after that for the both girls to reach the bottom of their mana storage. Their mana was almost depleted; their stamina had been all but consumed. They were barely standing and were panting heavily as if air was stuck inside their chests and they were unable to breathe it out.
Seeing the current situation of the battle, Calista was very satisfied of the outcome. This was what she had desired in the first place. Kacie had really managed to do as she had been told. Usually, boys and girls her age who were prone to fantasies and thoughts of glamour would never have done as she had told her to do. They would have definitely tried to take down their opponent till the end. But Kacie was different. She had not only carried out her orders with effectiveness but Calista had never sensed any intent of winning against her opponent throughout the battle. Kacie really had a strong mentality that her peers were severely lacking in.
Calista could tell that the game already belonged to Merion High since their opponent was already on her last legs. She raised her hand towards the referee and asked him to halt the match because she wanted to change the participant from their side.
"Are you sure about that? Contestant Kacie would be forfeiting her match if she wants to step down at this time."
Calista obviously understood his point and nodded her head in understanding since she had had no intention of putting Kacie back on the field again. She had already done more than enough. What she had done now had only been to keep her from taking any drastic measures that might have harmed her condition for the next matches.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtReferee was a professional as well as he immediately put a stop the battle after having confirmed that the request had been put in by the teacher of the Merion High Team.
As soon as the fight came to an end, Calista called out to Kacie and indicated for her to step down from the field.
"You have done an excellent job. Take some rest, you have earned it."
Kacie didn't show any expression despite having been praised by Calista and went to take some rest at the back.
On the other hand, Rebecca too got a moment of respite after having been tense during the whole fight. Throughout she had been on edge because the opponent didn't give her any chances at all. The attacks were unexpected and multi directional. It was hard for her to let her guard down for even a second in order to breathe properly. Thankfully, there was a slight gap between the two fights so she could take a moment for respite and recover her strength somewhat.
Calista then pointed towards Nadia who had been stuck to Zavier like glue throughout. She felt that she might have had to pry her apart from Zavier had it not been for Zavier shooing her away towards Calista.
Calista was slightly thankful to him for helping her out.
Nadia unwillingly trotted towards Calista.
"Prepare yourself. You are next. I don't need you to drag the fight any longer like Kacie did. Your job is to smash the opponent in one fell swoop if you can. Bring out the greatest magic skills that you can cast and throw them all at the opponent. Her mana is already close to depletion, her stamina is spent, she was barely holding on by the end of the first round so you better make this one the last round. Don't bother saving your mana. We still have a numerical advantage. So try to knock her out as soon as possible. Okay?"
Nadia clenched her fists to show her determination and excitedly nodded her head. She was looking forward to the fight. She wanted to impress her big brother Zavier by unleashing all her strength.
Nadia then headed towards the centre of the field with the plan that had been spoon fed to her by Calista. She wanted to blast her opponent with lightning so she could rush back to Zavier as soon as possible.
By then, the audience had lost all interest in the match. Only those who were interested in the participants of the Merion High were still watching the match with anticipation. They were trying to figure out the weaknesses and strengths of the students of the Merion High team.
The crowd had already declared this to be a win for the Merion High team as Rebecca was fumbling around by herself. There was a limit to what she could do by herself. Even Harry thought that the fight was already doomed to end in Rebecca's failure.
Nadia and Rebecca were looking at each other waiting for each other to make the first move. Rebecca was of course too tired to do so without risking a counter attack that might knock her out instantly. Therefore she stood her ground and let her opponent take the first jab.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNadia as instructed by Calista didn't hold anything back at all as she unleashed her lightning magic. Lightning sparks danced around her with increasing intensity as she fished around her pockets to take out her weapon.
When she retrieved her hand from her pocket there was a coin in her hand. She tossed it in the air a few times as if she had forgotten hat her enemy was right in front of her and she needed to take her out. Instead she was playing around with a coin,
But before the audience could boo her out of the field for making a mockery of the fight, the lightning sparks around Nadia converged towards the coin as if the entire lightning element in the vicinity had come at her call.
The electromagnetic forces on the coin forced it to move at a speed that was comparable to lightning itself and the propulsion force that it gave to the coin was enough to compare its momentum with that of a cannonball headed straight towards the enemy. The only difference was that the enemy didn't even have the chance to dodge because the acceleration of the coin didn't allow Rebecca to blink.
Rebecca was unable to prepare herself and tried to defend against the ballistic attack by covering her arms in diamond and crossing them in front of her chest to block the trajectory of the coin. The result was as expected. The coin that was nothing less than a cannonball in terms of force knocked her off of her feet with a loud and explosive sound. Rebecca was sent flying backwards while being unable to stop herself despite having tried her best to do so. The momentum of the coin wasn't something she could disperse just by putting a diamond shield in front of her.
Although she had been thrown back to the edge of the field, Rebecca was only looked as tired as she did after her fight with Kacie. There was no exceptional change in her condition. The reason was that although she had no way for her to kill the momentum of the thunder boosted coin, it also had no way of penetrating her diamond hard defenses no matter how fast or forceful it was.
Nadia knew that her attack hadn't damaged the enemy much so she continued to unleash her lightning at her from afar. Her continuous attacks finally brought forward the result that Calista desired out of her. Her offensive capabilities were impressive due to the lightning based spells that Nadia had learned. They provided the caster with better penetration and flexibility in the attack pattern.
Rebecca was finally about to fall. Her condition was quite precarious as she was still standing at the edge of the field as she was continuously being bombarded by the lightning element in the vicinity. It was as if it was rejecting her very existence.
The barrage of agile strikes was enough to hold down Rebecca who was already at the end of the rope. There was almost no rest in between attacks so Rebecca was unable to fight back no matter how much she wanted to fight back.
"If only, she wasn't alone in this match up. Caesar High would definitely have had a chance to win the match based on their overall strength. Rebecca could have also taken it easy. She is barely standing but she is unwilling to lose. Constant lightning strikes are falling down on her tired body but she still doesn't want to forfeit."
Wallice had been sitting right next to Gabby as he was muttering his analysis out loud enough for her to overhear. She gave a smile and shook her head with confidence.
