Chapter 84: Meeting Sertia AgainTrudy looked at the referee in disbelief, protesting in a hoa.r.s.e voice.
“How is that possible? I can"t even feel his aura. How is it possible that he didn"t fall?”
As the teachers on the rostrum of the Spell School heard these words, Cisco commented.
“If you can"t feel your opponent"s aura during a battle, there are only two possibilities. Either the opponent has already fallen, or the opponent"s strength is in a much higher league than yours.”
“It"s obvious that Fike is using a technique far surpa.s.sing Trudy"s, which is why Trudy can"t sense his aura.”
Chambers added on.
At this moment, the head of the Close-combat Magic Department wore a somewhat embarra.s.sed expression.
“Alright, alright. Let"s just continue watching the match.”
After a short while, the smoke dispersed, revealing Fike before Trudy"s field of vision, standing unscathed.
“How… How is this possible? Even if you are strong, how… how can you be completely unscathed?”
Trudy fumbled in disbelief.
He looked at Fike, who only reached out to pat off the dust on his left shoulder.
He looked no different that he was a few minutes ago.
“No one can remain unscathed… Facing my Burning Rose, don"t tell me you…”
Trudy"s eyes widened as he gawked at Fike.
Fike only smiled lightly.
“It"s time to conclude the match.”
In a flash, Fike raised his sword, waving it toward Trudy, who quickly raised his Burning Rose to defend himself.
The instant the two magical blades clashed…
The red flames that had been protruding from the short blade dissipated completely.
Looking at the truly unbelievable scene before him, Trudy could only exclaim in shock.
“How could this happen again?”
The demonic eye on Fike"s weapon blinked once more, emitting the same crimson glow as before.
As that happened, the Burning Rose in Trudy"s hand fell heavily onto the stage out of his hands, as if it had gone out of control and no longer wanted to be used.
Fike slowly brought his blade up, resting it on Trudy"s neck.
“Admit defeat, you can"t beat me,” Fike suggested calmly.
Trudy could only lower his head and grumble in a low voice.
“Referee, I admit defeat!”
At that, a burst of enthusiastic applause erupted from the audience.
“This Fike is too strong! He made Trudy surrender without any bloodshed!”
“Yeah, yeah! Fike didn"t even use his strong long-range spells this round. He won simply by relying on his close-combat sword skills. He"s too strong!”
“Fike is simply the strongest G.o.d among men in the Spell School! G.o.d Fike, I love you!”
Meanwhile, in the stands, the teachers who had been watching the match had also been shaken by Fike"s sheer strength.
“What"s the weapon in Fike"s hand?” Cisco asked, “How come I"ve never seen it before?”
Maggie smiled faintly as she explained Cisco and the other teachers.
“Oh, you mean the demonic sword. That weapon was specially made for Fike by Tegpus!”
At the mention of the name Master Tegpus, everyone was stunned even more.
This was especially true for Chambers, whose expression had contorted into the most exaggerated face of betrayal.
“This… this, this- How long have Master Tegpus and Fike known each other? How could he have personally made such a unique weapon for Fike? There"s no other explanation for it, Fike is the master"s biological grandson!”
He cried out.
Ignoring his tantrum, Maggie continued.
“According to Fike, it seems that the quality of that magic sword was something that even Master Tegpus himself couldn"t detect. However, it seems that only king-tier equipment can even begin to contend against it!”
“King-tier?”
The teachers were once again dumbstruck.
“Teacher Maggie, do you really believe Fike"s words? It"s not like you don"t know what the concept of a king-tier entails, right?
“Throughout the entirety of Miracle, no king-tier equipment after the primordial era ended has ever been forged, okay?”
Chambers said in disbelief.
Cisco spoke up again.
“If the boy"s words are true, then isn"t "that weapon" the only thing that could stand a chance against his demonic blade in the whole of Yogmo Academy?”
Everyone seemed to share a look of understanding.
“Are you referring to the unparalleled divine weapon left behind by the first headmaster, Cisco? The Elemental Magic Wand – Prometheus" Sacred Flame?”
Cisco nodded.
Everyone could not help but sit in stunned silence. They had not expected Fike"s demonic sword to be on par with the Elemental Magic Wand created by the G.o.d of creation himself.
“I didn"t think he"d obtain such an unparalleled weapon in just a few days… It seems that our Spell School has truly been blessed!”
Cisco mumbled in awe.
In the meantime, Fike had already slowly begun walking down from the stage.
Amidst the cheers of the crowd, he seemed to be enjoying himself.
Irene and senior Molly, who hadn"t been around for a while, were also walking toward Fike excitedly.
“Congratulations, you"ve won the first match easily!”
Molly commended.
“Fike, Fike, did you not even use one-tenth of your strength? I saw you beating Trudy as if you were just warming up!”
Irene complimented him as well.
Fike, who seemed to be somewhat enjoying himself, responded to the two"s questions.
Soon, a large group of girls had cl.u.s.tered behind the trio, surrounding Fike closer and closer.
This was to be expected. After all, not only was he powerful, Fike was also handsome. After his demonstration in this battle, he had already become the dream lover of many girls.
At this moment, Fike was shuffling through the crowd bashfully, attempting to walk toward the resting area.
Suddenly, a familiar figure appeared in front of Fike"s eyes.
It was a beautiful girl. She had a familiar hair color and a familiar look. A familiar weapon hung on her waist. Waist…? That"s right, that slender waist was also familiar to Fike.
“Fike, you"d disappeared just like that, I didn"t expect to find you with such a big harem!”
“Sertia?”
It was Sertia. Before Fike could say anything, she huffed.
“I thought you died in Miracle Forest. It seems that my concerns have been completely unnecessary!”
She made a show of turning around and leaving.
Seeing that Sertia seemed to be a little angry as she left, Fike hurriedly ran to chase after her.
The wind in his trail left everyone at a loss.
“Looks like Fike and the Melee School"s flower seem to have some kind of hidden relations.h.i.+p!”
Everyone sighed.
“No! I won"t allow my Prince Charming to fall for anyone! It must be that Sertia who"d taken the initiative to seduce Fike!”
“Yes, that must be the case, that cunning vixen! She actually seduced our innocent Lord Fike away so quickly! d.a.m.n it!”
Hearing the angry words of the girls behind them, Irene and Molly looked at each other, smiling.
“Looks like our Fike is going to be trouble among everyone in Yogmo Academy in the future! Haha!”
