The battle between Natalia and Avina quickly came to an end. Of course, they both won. Natalia's skill level far surpassed most of her peers, and Avina wasn't doing too bad either. Although her opponent was rather difficult to deal with, she still won easily.
Her opponent was Natalia, one of Renault's main targets.
Natalia was using an extremely rare type of magic — Undead Magic. In fact, it was so rare that it could be said to be one of a kind. Undead Magic, as its name implied, could summon undead and cast curse-type magic. Undead Magic could only be used when paired with a Darkness-type Physique.
"Mmm ~ Natalia is so strong, but she's a little too cold!" Natalia commented as she watched the battle from the side.
After she finished chanting the incantation, two or three dark gray bricks in the training ground began to tremble slightly. Following that, three zombie-like creatures the size of an adult crawled out. Their appearances were similar to what was described in most books. They had slightly green skin, slanted heads, and long tongues sticking out of their mouths. Saliva kept dripping down from their mouths. It seemed like they were slightly poisonous.
Her opponent was another student in her class. Her name was Ying, and her strength was above average. She was also quite outstanding.
The three zombies were slightly different from each other. The fat one was holding an axe. It seemed like it had high attack and defense. The skinny one seemed to be quite agile. The last one had sparks coming out of its mouth. It seemed like it knew how to cast simple magic.
(Tsk, so troublesome!)
Ying glanced at Natalia from the corner of her eye. However, she discovered that Natalia's eyes were empty, as if she didn't care about her at all. No one has ever looked at me like that since I was young.
(Damn it, looking down on me just because you're a little strong. Watch me!)
"Wind Sword Dance, Silver Sword Stabs!"
A large amount of wind elemental energy gathered and intersected with each other. They instantly stopped mixing and formed hundreds of needles the size of branches floating in the air.
"Go!"
After the order was given, all the thin needles rushed towards Natalya. The whooshing sound of the needles breaking through the air was very ear-piercing to the ears of others. The thin needles were so fast that it was difficult to see them with the naked eye.
"Teacher, who do you think is stronger, Ying or Natalia?" Avina tilted her head and asked.
"Well, I wasn't too sure before, but now I know!" Renault purposely kept her in suspense. "Let me test you. Who do you think will win?"
"Well … although I'm close to Ying and hope that she wins, looking at the current situation, I think Natalia will win!"
Ai Wena turned her head and shifted her gaze from Reynolds to the arena. Natalya seemed to be very calm in the face of hundreds of thin thorns. She didn't even look at it. Natalya waved her hand, and the fat zombie slowly stepped forward and used its body to block the thin thorns. Sure enough, the fat zombie's defense was amazing. The thin thorns only left a little white mark on its skin. It was as if a rock had been gently smashed into an ice cube. It was completely useless.
"Look! Up until now, Natalia has already grasped the rhythm of the battle. Ying's skills are very fast, but their power is far from enough. As for Natalia, she has only used one skill so far. Just this skill alone is enough to both attack and defend. Even if she can't win, she can still fight back. It's almost certain that she'll win. "
"Oh, oh, as expected of Teacher!"
"Yeah!"
(Keep a low profile, keep a low profile. Don't say it out loud!)
"Dark Curse, Earthbind!"
As soon as the four-word message was spoken, a dark black curse slowly floated out from Natalya's mouth. It then rushed toward Sakura along the bricks. Meanwhile, Sakura was also engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the three zombies summoned by Natalya. Although Sakura knew that it was useless to just defeat the puppets, she had to defeat the caster to win some time to breathe. However, the individual strength of the zombies was also quite good, and they could not free themselves to deal with Natalya.
The dark curses attached themselves to Ying while she was distracted dealing with the zombies.
"What's this???"
Facing the fat zombie's fierce attacks, Ying suddenly realized that she couldn't move at all. She couldn't even shout out the words' surrender 'or' help '.
"Wait, that's …?"
The moment the axe swung at her, Ying realized … realized that Natalia was finally looking at her.
"Wait … why is she looking at me like that? Is she gloating … happy … satisfied? "
Ying felt like she saw an extremely disgusting expression. "Monster! Monster! Monster! "Unfortunately, that was all she could say with all her might.
"Monster? Heh heh … sure, I'm a monster. I was, am, and will be a monster in the future. Hahahahaha! "Natalia's words made everyone's hair stand on end.
"Hey, hey, hey! She really wants to kill her!"
Reynolds watched from below the stage as the fat zombie continued to swing his axe. Logically speaking, as long as one side didn't admit defeat, the other side had the right to attack. However, the outcome of this match was already obvious. There was no need to attack at all.
"Is it … over?"
Ying watched as the fat zombie swung the millstone-sized axe at her head. She could almost see what would happen in three seconds. Her head would be separated from her body? Heh heh …
"Enough!"
As soon as Reynolds yelled, Natalya felt that her connection with the zombies was suddenly cut off. The zombies that had lost control were like puppets without strings, unable to move at all. The fat zombie's movements were also frozen at the moment it raised its axe and swung it backward.
"The outcome has been decided. Natalia is the winner!"
Renault walked onto the stage and dispelled Natalia's binding magic. He then hinted at Avina with his eyes, indicating for her to send Ying back to rest. Avina instantly understood Renault's intentions. She walked up to Ying and patted her on the back to comfort her.
"The selection is now over. Representing our school in the Sacred Sword Dance will be Natalia, Avina, and Natalia. Today's class will end here. Everyone, please go back and rest! "
(Luckily, the students didn't realize the severity of the situation just now. Otherwise … it would have been troublesome.)
After the students all returned to their dorms, Renault specially told Avina to remind Ying not to overthink things. What about Natalia?
(Sigh, I have to do some brainwashing again!)
Sometimes, reality and imagination were always at odds with each other. Reynolds had a deep feeling about this! The decorations in the room were different from what Renault had imagined. In his imagination, Natalia's room should be clean and fragrant, but … in reality …
