Chapter 149 Final Class Competition (Part VII)

After our teacher let us rest for a few minutes, the semi-final was on the entire course. I had a 33% chance of facing either Ruby, Rebecca, or Sonya.

With the pairings picked, I would fight Rebecca, and Ruby would fight Sonya. Ruby's and Sonya's match would go first.

This matchup was good. Either Ruby or Sonya would give up fighting for first place. If one of them gets injured, it wouldn't be surprising if I get third place. All I could do was hope that the loser would get too tired from their fight.

Getting both of them in the battle court, they faced each other. Ruby and Sonya were in top condition. Whoever lost here would lose a lot.

Ruby and Sonya both were very prideful in their own right. Losing here would significantly damage their pride and the prize they won't receive.

Starting strong, Sonya made the first move. Moving as far away from Ruby as possible, she held her bow and did her best to distract Ruby.

Ruby, who was having none of that, chased Sonya. Sonya, who saw that she was being chased, deployed a run-and-hit tactic.

Occasionally, when Sonya had reached the point where Ruby was far enough, Sonya would release an arrow at Ruby, hurting her.

Sonya, who was neatly kiting her opponent, was doing an excellent job. Sonya was currently in the lead by playing what Ruby was weak against.

It was a shame that Sonya had faced a dragonewt such as Ruby. But, observing Ruby's expression, I could tell she was pissed.

Ruby was a massive muscle head. However, she is the type of person who fights using her instincts and emotions.

Sonya picked the worst person who she should have pissed. Ruby, who is frustrated, yelled out to Sonya in anger.

Feeling the spike of power in Ruby, both her physical and magical abilities had risen. Her dark flames had manifested, and she began her charge on Sonya.

With this, Sonya could no longer run. Instead, Sonya had to adapt to a new strategy, or it would be the end for her.

Ruby, who was rushing Sonya, was already at arm's length away from Sonya. At point blank, Sonya used her bow right into Ruby's face.

Was Sonya trying to kill Ruby? If the arrow had landed, I wouldn't know what to say. But fortunately, the dark flames around Ruby had destroyed the arrow.

Ruby, who had now closed the distance, was in range to attack. With nothing stopping her, she punched Sonya in the face using her fist combined with her strong magic.

Landing her punch, Sonya was sent flying. Ouch! That was what I thought. If you were sent flying by a punch, that got to hurt.

Sonya was on the ground, unable to stand up. She had fainted from the power that Ruby had displayed.

I pitied Sonya. Her face looked pretty unnatural from the hit that Ruby caused. Even blood was spurring out of Sonya's mouth.

"Charlie, should I heal her?" Even if you wanted to, I don't think you could.

"Livie, her jaws are damaged. I don't think your magic would work on her." It would be hazardous if Sonya choked on Livie's food.

I don't think she can participate in the next match with an injury like that, which was pretty lucky for me. After my match with Rebecca, I won't need to fight another match.

After the match, Sonya was taken to the school's medical area. Now Rebecca and I would have to fight.

"Charlie." Rebecca calmly said, with the two of us faced.

"This is our first time fighting, if I recall." That was correct. Rebecca and I never had a chance to fight. In any circumstance.

"Sorry, but I'm going to beat you up for Reece." Rebecca had stated what she wanted.

With the battle beginning, I said, "I surrender!" I had crushed what Rebecca had wanted me to do. Livie, who was spectating, was confused by what I said.

Ruby, on the other hand, didn't look too happy. She, who was pissed earlier, became angry again.

"Why?" Rebecca was pretty displeased by my announcement.

"Fighting both Gold and Reece had my mana severely drained. There is no point in fighting a losing battle." I had lied without any hesitation.

Saying what I needed, everyone who heard what I said couldn't deny that I had fought two people considered strong.

While what I said was true, it was disappointing that my battle with Rebecca ended within seconds.

"Ms. Colorful, how is third place decided?" Since Sonya wasn't here, I had to ensure I got my prize.

"Student Sonya cannot fight, so the prize will naturally go to you." I nodded, knowing that the three pure mana crystals were mine. Happy that I got my prize, I went to Livie and smiled at her.

? "Why did you surrender?" Whispering, Livie, who naturally knew me best, couldn't believe what I said to Rebecca was true.

"I will tell you after class if that is alright with you." I didn't want to risk the chance of me being heard, so I had to dismiss this topic immediately.

Livie could do nothing but sigh in acceptance. Having to push back on what needed to be said, this topic was over until we were alone.

I would have left with Livie if this battle was someone else fighting. Both Ruby and Rebecca were up next.

Ruby, who was still injured, is at a pretty significant disadvantage. The students of Avaris cheered on Rebecca while the exchange students cheered for Ruby.

If Rebecca lost this fight, she might as well commit suicide. I had heard that Rebecca was the strongest in her year. But, on the other hand, if she happens to lose to Ruby, who was injured, then the country of Avaris would look like a joke in the eyes of many.

The fight was about to start, and everyone who was spectating the fight was nervous.
