Chapter 108 - I M Sorry, You’re Sorry, We’re Sorry …

Once the head instructor finished his speak, Anaya appeared again right behind her and carried her in princess fashion, they met the rest of their group and left together.

Even with the help of the lake water, Celia fell asleep from exhaustion in Anaya's arms and when she woke up they were in their bed in the dimension.

Anaya was sleeping peacefully next to her, Celia wondered what time it was but she was in no hurry to get up, she caressed the beautiful face of her wife who immediately placed a hand on hers, Anaya then opened her eyes still misty from her sleep and asked her after yawning and doing some stretching : "How are you feeling my love, better ?"

Celia smiled at her : "I feel much better now, but i still don't want to get up."

Anaya laughed when she heard her wife say that, she told her : "Liam was very angry but not against you don't worry, he was blaming himself to have pushed you up to that extend, he was saying that he should not have pressure us, it was quite funny to listen to him till he asks me to withdraw from the competition.

I asked Alec to take care of him and i assured them that you were fine and that you will be ready to fight tomorrow morning, and i said to Liam before heading here that he could forget about me to withdraw from a competition."

Celia laughed heartily : "My baby wife it sound so funny, damn i missed that what a shame."

Anaya was laughing too and she took Celia closer in her arms, she said to her : "We should go have a bath in our pool, i want you to be in your best condition to fight with those two guys, the other ones shouldn't be a problem to you."

Celia looked at her perplexed and asked her : "Which one are you talking about ?"

Anaya sighed : "I knew it ! You didn't bother at all with the other participants right ? Um, let me tell you that those two who beat you in the last trial are repectively the number one mage genius from the sun sect, and the other is the genius from the moon sect, they won't be easy to take down."

Celia laughed again : "Oh crap, i m sure they are so pissed off to have be beaten by a girl who is younger than them and only level six."

Celia couldn't stop to laugh, just to imagine the face of those genuises, it was too funny.

Anaya understood why her wife was reacting like that because when Liam had told her about that she had done exactly the same thing so she had to remind her to be caution now : "My love, just be careful okay, you have already trampled on their pride so may be they will try to trick you."

Celia said confidently : "They could still try, don't worry my baby wife I will be caution."

After that the girls went to bath in their private pool and then they met everyone near the lake, that was their official meeting point.

Everyone was so excited, Sky, Snow and Lilac were very happy to come to see her fight and same Flame could accompany them, as for Arthur, Tal put on him a illusion and he looked like a normal bird so he will be able to join us as well.

Liam wanted to talk to her but Cel said to him first : "No need for a talk, i m sorry, you are sorry, we are both sorry so don't worry i will be careful and i won't kill myself to win a competition so you rest assure everything will be fine, okay Great Master Liam."

She added with a grin on her face : "Let's bring honor to your Northern Academy !"

Liam just said: "Okay then i won't apologized to you, let's go kick some asses, i will be by your side during the duels, so i won't let anything happen to you i promise."

Cel just nodded but she told him very seriously: "Let me fight, i m not afraid of the pain so don't overprotect me, you can only intervene if my life is in danger that's all."

Liam nodded in agreement and patted her head, he said : "Good girl !"

Then he turned to everyone and said cheerfully : "Ready to see a good show, let's go !"

This time the duels will take place in the arena so they all went there.

Anaya embraced Celia before to let her go with Liam who will be the one to supervise her fight, Caleb before joigning the rest of their group whispered into Liam ear : "Don't let your feeling for this competition compromise her safety, you can't let her being hurt, she is too important, not only for us but for all the worlds, with Naya they're the only who can defeat this evil demon god."

Liam whispered back to Caleb : "Don't worry big brother, i m well awared of that fact, but i have already made her a promise and she wants to fight so i will intervene only if her life is in danger, we should trust her more, she is stronger that we thought."

Caleb nodded in acknowledge and let the both of them go to the platform near the combat rings to know the last rules of this competition.

Once in that platform Celia could feel the tense atmosphere, she checked every person on it, and with Liam they were only five other masters, they were all level twelve and the weaker was a grade three not so bad.

One mage were probably stronger than Liam back then because he was a grade five, but now that Liam had assimilated his demonic energy he was far stronger than this mage, though this mage could probably don't see the difference, so he was watching Liam like if he was ant.

Celia couldn't help to said outloud : "I get now why you want me to kick some asses, you've already met a asshole back then, right ?"

Liam followed her line of sight and when he saw that the man she was targeted was watching her with murderous eyes he couldn't help laughing outloud, he said to her : "Ya, you're right, back then i met a asshole who should know better his place now."

When this man was about to reply them, the head instructor spoke up to explain the latest rules of this competition.

The head instructor said : "Here we are finally ! The most awaited event of tjis competition, the duels.

The rounds will unfold as follows, you are twenty-four participants left there so we will have twelve duels in the first round, then there will be six duels in the second round, and three duels in the third round, the three winners of this third round will be automatically qualified for the semi-final when the fourth qualified participant will be the one who among the losers of the duels will have the most points collected since the beginning of the competition.

We will then have the semi-finals and finally the final."

The head instructor after a short break added : "The winner of the duels might not be the winner of the competition, let me explained to you how we will be giving the points for this last trial.

For the first, second and third round, each match won will give you five points, if you won the semi-final you will have ten points, and the winner of the final will have thirty points when the loser will still get twenty points.

The winner of the competition will be the one with the most accumulate points.

Your master will be in charge of your safety, if they choose to intervene in the fight you will loose automatically.

To win a match it's simple, your adversaire must be K.O., fall from the ring or choose to withdraw.

If everything is clear let's begins, the first duels have been draw already, you can checked the list just in front of the combat rings."

Liam took Celia by the shoulders and led her in front of the list of the duels, there was the name of the participants, their level, their number of points and the sect they represented, as well as the number of the combat ring on which the duel will take place.

Celia's first match was against a level ten mage from the sun sect.

Liam then turned to this man who were completely imbued with himself and said to him : "Gildas, apparently our disciples are going to meet in the first round, I hope you are ready to be beaten."

Gildas snorted and said to him : "How a little girl with only a level six can possibly be a match for my disciple, be ready to beaten ? Don't make me laugh, you should tell her to withdraw before she gets hurt."

Celia smirked at him and then said : "Let's the little girl show you what a level six mage can do against a level ten mage."
