Chapter 117 : Alex vs Amelia (1)

"The battle ends! Alex wins!"

"Alex has won against Jonathan" muttered Nox with an incredulous face.

He wasn't the only one shocked by this outcome; the other members of the branch all had the same expression as him.

The only ones with calms attitudes were Lilia, Ava and Amelia, beside them, everyone was stunned.

"Hehe, that's my grandson! I knew he would win!" Shouted Grace after her surprise had subsided.

"Tsk, stop lying, from your earlier expression, you definitely didn't expect him to win" said Victoria.

"Still, it is astounding to see Alex reach the finals," said Abigail.

"True, and he reached the final by winning against many candidates for the position of head of the branch," replied Madison.

"Indeed, he has won against Nox, En, Talia and now Jonathan, that's quite an achievement "

"Amelia also defeated some tough opponents like Ector and Zo, now that I think about it, the two of them had defeated all fours of Robert's sons, how do you feel knowing this?" Asked Madison with a teasing smile as she glanced at Robert.

Robert just grumbled at her, but didn't say anything.

"He must be seething" whispered Abigail to Madison.

"I'm sure that he is, his rival children just defeated his own" whispered back Madison.

"I can hear you" said Robert with an annoyed tone.

"We know" replied the two women, continuing to make fun of him.

"Your attention here" said Adrian to the spectators.

"We will now start the last fight of the competition. This fight will determine the one who will be the head of our branch and also the representative of our branch in the competition that will determine the future head of the entire Eswald family!" exclaimed Adrian.

"The ones fighting for the position of the head of the branch are Amelia and Alexandre Eswald!" shouted Adrian as he pointed to the pair of siblings standing in front of each other.

Spectators clapped and started to speak among themselves, wondering who would win the fight.

She wondered if she should use her residual blast right now, she was already starting to feel exhausted due to her previous fights but also because of the use of her ability two times today, so she was hesitant if she should use residual blast right now or wait later and only use it at the right moment.

'No, I should use it now, with each passing minute I'm getting tired, I risk losing consciousness if I use residual blast when exhausted'.

Since she had resolved herself, Amelia didn't waste a second and started to create her destructive orb.

'Shit, she is going to use her ability, what to do?' wondered Alex.

The logical thing to do here was to rush toward her and stop her from activating her ability. However, the vines were barring his way; before he dealt with them, the orb would already be formed.

He then thought about solidifying the smoke to form a protective dome around himself, but immediately scratched that idea.

'The dome will collapse immediately.'

Although he could make the smoke take a solid form, there was no way it would resist such an explosion.

There was always the solution of escaping in the air, but the problem with that is that he couldn't stay forever in the air, he would have to descend after some time.

What guaranteed that what awaiting him on the ground wouldn't be another destructive orb?

'Should I take a leap?' wondered Alex.

'Will my reserve of mana even be enough for me to take a leap?'

Meanwhile, as Alex's mind raced to find a solution to his predicament, Amelia finished creating her explosive orb made of residual energy.

The orb she made this time was the largest she had ever made from the start of this competition, it was at least the size of a basket ball of earth.

She decided to make it this large so that her brother wouldn't be able to escape it, even if he sticks to the walls of the arena or tried to escape in the air.

"Does she intend to blow up the whole arena?" wondered Candace, witnessing the "giant" explosive orb hovering in Amelia's hand.

Despite being smaller, Amelia's previous explosive orbs were already too destructive, so what was she intending to do with one so big ?

Also sensing that the next explosion caused by Amelia will be too big, Grace used her mana to cover not just the spectators lounge but the whole mansion!

"Can you take this on, brother ?" Asked Amelia, however, she didn't even take the time to hear Alex's response and hurled the dangerous orb toward him.

"F*ck!"
