On Melissa stage things were a bit different. A magic circle appeared beneath her feet. Magic circles were another way to cast spells without using incantations.
Water spilled out of the blue magic circle, as an enchanter Melissa had a nack for magic circles as the two were similar, that why she was such a powerful mage.
The water gathered around her and started spinning, a water sphere was formed with her inside, it was spinning at incredible speed. They tried to break it with spells and swords but the centrifugal force brushed their attacks aside.
The spear guy whose name he did not know was dancing around the other contestants, lightning dragons danced around his spear. His art was modelled around the water dragons.
Unlike the winged air dragons, water dragons did not have wings but could step on clouds and fly in the sky. They controlled the seas and storms while the winged dragons were masters of might and flames.
His dance was beautiful, sometimes the dragon would dance around him, deflecting all attacks, it was fast. He eliminated more opponents than Melissa and the entire time he was quiet.
However unlike Melissa he had to work and move while she would just shoot water balls from her sphere. Coming from the spinning sphere the balls moved at incredible speed. She had actually taken the idea from Fabro when he taught them about centrifugal force.
Theirs took even less time than Annies stage. Within a few minutes only 100 contestants were left. It was understandable though, unlike with Annie the contestants weren't exactly bonded here.
That was fun, said Melissa still with her smile. On Balgas stage, the entire stage was shaking. The stages were reinforced with magic so destroying them was hard.
Even with all the fighting there were barely any cracks on them but that stage was shaking. Everybody heard Balga shout seismic shock like an earthquake the stage shook.
The contestants there fell on the butts losing their balance. Flame creation magic tiger go go shouted a ladies voice. Her naming sense is terrible,thought Fabro but her magic is interesting.
A tiger made of flames appeared, the Tiger was really detailed with it stripes clear, it was really strange how he could see the stripes even the the tiger was made entirely of the same flame.
It jumped at Balga, he raised his shield to block, a shockwave of heat hit the entire stage pushing some people backwards. A giant man over two metres tall carrying an axe and shield rushed at him.
The axe glowed gold, he swung towards Balga who raised his shield to block. His flesh jiggled like jelly, a shockwave blasted the stage. Hand of the damned take all there is in you greedy palm, dark hand he heard a whisper.
A giant five metre large hand made of darkness flew towards him. Bash said Balga, he swung his shield at the hand, his shield glowed brown, a larger 6 metres wide brown projection of it collided with the hand both shattering.
The entire stage was filled with shockwaves, the other contestants could not interfere in a fight of this level. A short woman with hair tied up in a ponytail jumped into the air.
She brandished a greatsword even larger than she was. The sword was covered in flames and she descended from the air laughing.Balga blocked at the same time the axe hit his shield again.
With both of them hitting him at the same time he was pushed pack. For the first time in this fight he had moved from his position. The two of them jumped backwards, fire birds and dark bolt came at him fast.
He raised his shield and they exploded on it. The smoke cleared and he was standing there unharmed. It looks like his offensive ability is lacking but his defence is much higher, thought Fabro.
His vit and End stats must be high in exchange for a lower agi stat. He assessed the two attacking him. The girl invested in speed and strength equally it seemed while the axe guy seemed to possess too much strength.
Each of his swing generate enough wind to send others flying but he was not fast either. The mage girl on the other was very interesting. He had a suspicion as to why but the people here seemed to grow stronger than they should.
They could easily create their versions of spells and techniques, he had seen multiple spells and techniques being used that were not in the book of spells that he gave them.
People of this level should have no business creating their own spells but here they were doing it like it natural. He suspected it was because of his passive ability promote growth and he was partially right.
The two mages casted spells after spells trying to weaken him but he stood unshaken. The axe and the shorty flanked his left and right their attacks unrelenting. This lasted for a few minutes then they all stood still. They were getting serious.
The fire magic was casting her weird named magic spells, the short swordwoman was covered in flames as was her sword while the axe wielder was covered in a golden aura. The atmosphere was really tense, everybody was getting excited.
The gloomy dark mage just kicked a girl next to him sending her out of the stage.The girl could barely stand after being hit by that many shockwaves, she was at the beginning of the acolyte realm afterall.
Before they could move they heard a bell ring, LADIES AND GENTLEMAN THAT IT FOR OUR BATTLE ROYAL, IF YOU THOUGHT THAT WAS EXCITING WAIT UNTIL TOMORROW FOR THE ONE ON ONE BATTLES WHERE THE BEST OF THE BEST FACE EACH OTHER ON A HEAD ON BATTLE, shouted Allis.
People now realise there were 100 people left on stage, after all that excitement, it was really disappointing, they pointed their anger at the gloomy guy but he did not seem to care at all.
It was night time and they were in a bar. The one on one battles will be tomorrow, the contestants seemed nervous but also excited then there were others like Melissa who just had that constant smile of hers like nothing in the world could bother her.
I wish I could join, said Miko with excitement. Well you can't, you too strong. You think I don't know that? Well you not very smar....his head was planted in the wall before he could finish, ouch. Everybody in the bar turned at looked at him then laughed, the atmosphere became jovial.
