Chapter 225: Chapter 225:All-Out-War [4]

As mud dripped from every part of his body, Liam slowly moved through the battlegrounds before finally finding someone recognizable.

Right in front of him, Liam could see Kevin with his red broadsword, eliminating the last few students.

His iron sword, covered by a dark red hue, stood in contrast to the ocean-blue falling raindrops, making him visible to everyone on the battlefield.

Yet, no matter how many students grouped and tried to fight, Kevin's sword slashes inevitably took them down.

Even without any spells or magic, Kevin's pure skill with the broadsword allowed him to weave in between the various attacks and spells thrown at him while simultaneously counterattacking.

It was a masterclass.

Kevin did not have a single stat like Alya's speed that was above the rest; all his stats were practically the same.

However, what set Kevin apart from the rest was his sword art.

Crimson Fang.

Standing still, allowing much rain to drench his muddy body, Liam watched in awe as Kevin activated his latest move from his sword art.

Red Reaver.

The red hue surrounding Kevin's sword expanded and grew massively.

Just like how Bertus's electric sword earlier, Kevin's physical sword was no longer visible.

The red hue grew and grew further and further away from the tip of his sword with every student Kevin elimanted before it finally reached its max.

The red hue, now stretching far above Kevin's sword, made it seem like Kevin was not holding a sword anymore but a really longer spear.

Then, as the last few students recklessly approached Kevin, he swung the massive sword down, the red hue following.

*CRASH*

Instead of hitting the students, Kevin's sword swung into the muddy ground.

Just as the sword hit the ground, the red hue surrounding it burst out, surging to the ground.

The muddy ground was now shining a bright red as the red hue flooded out of Kevin's sword, which was embedded in the mud, and towards the students.

Seeing this, the students attempted to dodge, but like an assassin, the red hue followed them with no mercy.

As the ground under the group of students started glowing a dark red, Kevin yanked his sword out of the mud.

Then, with his sword pointing at the students, Kevin muttered.

"Cleave."

*BANG*

The next second, the red hue exploded from the ground under the students, surrounding them.

And before the students could react or dodge, the red hue had already enveloped their bodies.

Swirling around the students' bodies, the red hue immobilized them while also stealing their health with every passing moment.

In just a few seconds, the group of close to fifteen students had all been eliminated.

As Kevin eliminated the final students, solely using his pure swordsmanship and no abilities, he suddenly turned around and saw Liam's muddy figure behind him.

Without skipping a beat, Kevin snarled before gripping his red broadsword and sprinting towards Liam.

"YOU THINK SNEAKING UP ON ME WILL WORK!?"

"..."

Too exhausted by the fight with Bertus earlier to dodge or fight back, Liam could only wave his hands up and down before screaming.

"ITS ME, LIAM. IT'S ME. STOP, PLEASE KEVIN!"

Stopping a few meters away from Liam's muddy figure, Kevin pointed his sword forward with a confused expression.

"...you're who...?"

Raising his hands up to show he had no weapons, Liam stammered out.

"It's me, Liam. Alright?"

"...what happened?"

Shaking his head, Liam walked up to Kevin and grabbed one of the potions he was holding.

Drinking the health potion, Liam replied.

"I won, alright?"

"...but your clothes, your face, yo-"

"Come here."

"NO, STOP. NO!"

Kevin, also exhausted from the countless fights, could only watch as Liam leaned down and used his hand to make a snowball made of mud.

Raising his hand with the muddy snowball, Liam was about to launch it at Kevin when an angry voice rang out from behind him.

However, before Liam could reach the confused Kevin, a voice rang out from behind them.

"...And what the hell is going on over here!?"

Kevin, seeing Liam stop for a second mid-throw because of the voice, immediately ducked downwards.

Then, as the muddy snowball was released from Liam's hand, Kevin was able to narrowly dodge, watching the snowball fly right above him.

Seeing Kevin duck, Liam immediately looked ahead and saw another figure right behind Kevin's ducking figure.

"WATCH OUT!"

But it was too late.

Alya, who had been walking over to Kevin, was oblivious as a muddy snowball came flying at her, pelting her right in the face.

Just as the muddy snowball pelted Alya in the face, Lily appeared next to Irene and Ruby before saying,

"I think that's... everyone here."

As the three girls approached Kevin and Liam, Lily alternated gazes between Liam, Kevin, and the disgusted Alya for a moment.

Sighing, Lily took out her wand before gesturing for Alya to come over. Sёarch* The Novelƒire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Here. Alya, I'll get it off."

"..."

Pointing to Liam, Lily said the silent and disgruntled Elven princess.

"Can you stand next to him?"

After Alya and Liam were standing side by side, Lily took out her wand and cast another water beam aimed at both of them.

As the water washed over the two of them, everyone else looked away in disgust... except Kevin.

"MAKE SURE THE DRONE IS GETTING THIS SHIT!"

Alya, having only her face muddied, stepped away after a moment while Liam simply stood there, allowing the water to hit every point of his body.

Gritting his teeth, Liam stared at Kevin, who was frantically trying to make sure every drone in the area was looking at him.

"That...he'll pay."

As Liam got the last bit of mud off him with the water and Lily put her wand down, a sudden loud voice sounded from the top of the stadium.

*TEN STUDENTS REMAINING*

*THERE ARE TEN STUDENTS REMAINING*

Curiously, Ruby asked in the awkward silence.

"So...now what?"

Patting her friend on the back, Irene said.

"Well... only one of us can and needs to win."
