Chapter 537.3
Unable to break our defense, the Demon Royal Guard once turned the ball back – NOW!!!
Then I gave my prearranged sign.
At the same time, the Royal Guards of Rogard Empire first launched an [impact shot].
The pa.s.ser of the Demon Royal Guards, who received the ball one step behind the front line, was. .h.i.t by it.
He was knocked out of his stance, and the next moment, he was. .h.i.t by another [Wind Blast] combination attack, which caused the ball to leave his hand and float away.
Now the ball rolled away.
“Take it!”
“Give it to me!”
Enemies and allies were all confused.
However, the Royal Guards of Rogard Empire, who were moving in unison according to the sign, and who believed that their allies would surely apply magic to the ball, were one step ahead of the Royal Guards of the Demon Realm – they succeeded in taking the ball.
“Counter!”
“We’re in trouble!”
“Go!”
A defensive s.h.i.+ft.
The formation was so tight that both sides were collapsing to secure the ball, and once they got past the defenses… they could aim for a goal.
The Royal Guards of Rogard Empire were the first to attack, running to create a defensive formation.
To stop them, the Demon Royal Guards also tried to quickly set up a defensive posture with [Field Generation] and [Mud Wall], but they were unable to do so in time.
The Royal Guards of Rogard Empire jumped, ran, dodged and pa.s.sed the ball, making the ball cross the goal line on the Demon Royal Guards’ side.
This s.h.i.+fted the lead in points to our side.
People cheered and screamed.
“It’s not over yet, don’t drop your defenses until the end!”
Time was running out, but it was not zero.
Above all, even if the time for the match ended, the match would only truly end if all the attackers had been stopped.
With the end approaching, the attack of the Demon side became truly tremendous.
Using both their physical and magical abilities, they pushed the line faster and faster.
The whistle was blown to indicate that the game time had already pa.s.sed, but the match did not end. Rogard Empire’s team kept getting pushed in.
The Royal Guards of Rogard Empire, though being pushed back, continued to defend desperately, exerting their last strength – at that moment, they tackled a Demon Royal Guard that was running along the sideline.
Although a one-man tackle against the powerful demons would only stop them momentarily in their tracks, they still did it knowing this from the start.
It was enough if he could stop for just a moment.
Then, a precise [wind blast] was launched, and the Demon holding the ball rolled over and broke the sideline without being able to pa.s.s.
In other words – A Dead Ball.
Now that the game time was already over, it would also mean, the match had truly ended.
At this moment, the Rogard Empire’s team had won the champions.h.i.+p.
[OHHH!]
“Yoshaaa!”
With our emotions running high, we all jumped out onto the field at once with the entire staff.
The fact that we had won the heated battle, the Royal Guards of Rogard Empire raised their fists high to the sky and let out a shout of joy.
They were very excited to know that they won the victory of the Rogard Empire with their own hands, and they were able to show it to the people of the empire.
Finally, they shook hands with the Royal Guards of the Demon Realm, who had made this the most exciting match ever, embraced each other, and praised each other for their good fight.
This scene must have left a strong impression on the hearts of all the spectators who came to the Magic Festival.
The loudest applause ever filled the entire stadium, and it continued to ring out without stopping.
With this, all the events of the festival were completed.
The closing ceremony was held amidst great enthusiasm, and the curtain closed on the first Magic Festival.
