Chapter 165
"The winners are Rose and Joseph!" The headmistress announced .
Gasps the surprise sounded in the stands . All the students directed their sights to the winners of the fight, more specifically, to the black-haired hero .
Many students and teachers were asking around for the identity of the girl, after all, most of them did not know that the academy had received a new genius .
With her sixth-layer strength and strong combat power just in her first year in the institute, Rose was definitively a monstrous genius, even above Dina and Katherine in talent . Her future was limitless .
Moreover, she was a commoner unaffiliated to any noble house . With a bit of poaching, maybe she could become in the pillar of a noble family .
Rose was not interested in that, though . She was too distracted sulking after the battle . She was expecting more of the two upperclassmen, but they ended being defeated after one attack .
"How disappointing . " She shook her head and left the arena . She did not even wait for the apology of the two nobles . She was not interested in that . The only reason she participated in the duel in the first place was to face powerful opponents .
Seeing that, Joseph felt too awkward to ask for an apology and also left the arena .
When Rose returned with us, she looked at me with a provocative look .
I will win this time . That was what her eyes seemed to be saying .
I shrugged and replied with a fearless smile . Rose saw it and nodded satisfied .
"As expected, I truly want to fight you again . "
I decided to ignore the words that escaped her mouth .
A healing mage entered the arena and healed the two nobles . Although Rose's attacks seemed serious, the truth was that her sword was so sharp that the cut was very small . A little bit of healing magic was enough to return the two nobles to normal conditions .
Once they recovered, the two nobles swallowed their pride and accepted their loss . They unwillingly went to apologize to Joseph, and although Joseph felt a bit awkward receiving an apology he did not earn, he decided to accept it .
The nobles then left the place, too ashamed to see the next duel .
Headmistress Evelyn looked at us next .
"Very well, are you ready?"
Alan and Dina looked at each other and nodded .
"How do you want to do it, Alan? I don't mind fighting you one to one . "
Alan thought for a moment before shaking his head . "I'm clearly stronger than you, so a fight between us is senseless . I will not bully you that way . What do you think of an elimination battle?"
"Bah! Do you think I don't know you are afraid of being beaten for me in public? You are still a coward, Alan . You don't dare to fight me now that both of us are in the sixth-layer!"
Alan's expression turned cold . "Do you dare to accept or not?"
Dina snorted in disdain . "Do you think I don't dare? Even if I know what you are plotting, I accept your proposal . "
Alan nodded . "Very well . Headmistress, we will do an elimination battle . "
"Okay . " Evelyn nodded in agreement . "You have five minutes to get ready!"
Elimination battles are a mode of competition very used when two teams face each other . In this kind of battle, two teams of seven people will send a member each to the arena . Every time a member is eliminated, another will enter to replace him . In the end, the team with at least one member standing in the arena wins .
Mmm . . . This time Dina was too hotblooded . This kind of competition is disadvantaged for us .
Weel, at most, I'll intervene a little bit .
