Otherworld Adventure

This woman was the current Sword Saintess of the Anglaria Kingdom, Celia Lunarts. She was a member of the Lunar Rabbit-kin Tribe. Even as a Sword Saintess, one of the very few people who were just below the Transcendent Level, she felt the oppressive aura released by the princess who was on the stage.

It was mindboggling because she couldn"t do anything about it. The King only grunted in reply. This daughter of his kept on surprising him over and over again. Just what was this skill or technique that allowed her to pressure not just him, but practically everyone inside the stadium?

He could already here the loud discussions and bewilderment of his citizens.

"My King... what will do about this?"

"...we"ll talk to her after the match."

"Yes, your majesty." Celia bowed and backed down, returning to her seat. But the woman couldn"t sit down. She was very much antic.i.p.ating the fight between the prince and princess. She knew for a fact that Zephyr was powerful, since she had personally trained the boy, but for some reason, she had this gut feeling that it was his sister that would emerge victorious in this fight.

Anna and Zaki were surprised when the oppressive pressure descended in the stadium, but Anna only frowned and waved her hand, quickly dispelling the pressure around her and her husband.

When she looked back down at the stage, she saw her son down there and after he extracted a beautiful silver spear from his spatial ring, the pressure inside the stadium immediately disappeared.

She suddenly realized something and smiled, this ability was something that Lucia had written to her in one of her letters.

"Weapon Intent... I didn"t think the princess would get this ability before my own daughter~ what a lovely surprise."

"What"s that dear?"

"It"s the ability the little dragon girly"s using~"

"Oh...Cecil"s Intent?"

"Yes, that"s the one."

"Ah, I thought so. It felt strange when the pressure had abruptly appeared, but I guess that explains it... I"m guessing the girl still doesn"t have complete control over this ability, no?"

"Yesh darling~" Anna said with a cheesecake stuffed in her mouth.

Zaki could only smile at his adorable wife, but he turned his attention back to the fighter"s ring. After Cecil and the referee said something to each other, the ref immediately announced the start of the match.

"FIGHT!"

******

Down on the stage, Eli immediately activated Aura Manifestation after the referee announced the beginning of the match. A red aura rose and enshrouded her body. She still wasn"t aware that she had released her very own Intent, but for some reason she saw a pained expression on her brother"s face.

Eli continued chanting and 3 large flaming swords rose from behind her. After she completed her preparations, she pointed her rapier at her brother. This caused Zephyr to grimace even more, but he gritted his teeth and forcefully tried to push back the immense pressure he was feeling.

"RAAAAHHHHH!!!"

After the shout, he immediately activated several combat skills and strengthening spells. He then raised his black great sword and dashed towards his sister with a battle cry.

"COME!"

"Hnnn..."

Eli buckled down and braced herself for the impact. She quickly wrapped mana around her rapier, causing it to be wrapped in a red aura as well. Then she received her brother"s sword.

CLAAAAANNNGGGGG

The thin and flimsy rapier had shockingly blocked the large great sword. The audience had already thrown the earlier discussions of the unknown pressure to the back of their minds and had refocused on their attention on the ongoing battle.

The sight of the princess blocking the prince"s great sword with only her thin rapier was...astonishing. The crowd roared in excitement and the battle continued.

After blocking the sword strike, Eli punched the sword with her other fist while at the same time pushing her rapier up at the sword and she was able to repel the heavy sword away.

Zephyr flipped up in the air and extended his wings, he dove back down while sending wind blades, earth spears and flame lances at Elizabeth.

"TAKE THIS!"

"Tsk..."

Eli clicked her tongue and dodged away, but Zephyr followed after her and slammed his great sword at her again.

This time Eli didn"t try blocking it. Although she could, but the time needed for her when she had to push it back was clearly enough for her brother to chant multiple spells at once.

Eli extended her wings and flew up into the air. She sent her 3 flame swords to receive the sword strike while she flew up to the side and tried to pincer her brother.

Zephyr obviously saw through this ploy and sent more spells to intercept her. Eli backed off while chanting. Once she completed her chant, the girl sent her spells to intercept the wind blades and earth spikes flying at her.

Next to the stage, Cecil began frowning when he saw Eli fight.

"She"s too cautious..."

That"s right. Since the start of the battle, Eli hadn"t once taken the initiative to attack. She had only responded to Zephyr"s attacks and acted according to the situation.

"Come on Eli! You"ve already awoken your intent! Use that and quickly end this farce!" Cecil impatiently said. He began tapping his fingers on his spear, clearly showing his impatience.

The battle continued and Eli was constantly on the defense. She hadn"t once taken the initiative to attack. Although there were many times in the battle where Cecil saw that she could have directed her intent on Zephyr and attack, but Eli hadn"t done so, she only backed off and cautiously conjured more flame swords around her.

Cecil clicked his tongue in annoyance, but then he felt that the intent suddenly began to fade as the battle continued. It was then he suddenly realized something.

"D-don"t tell me...she hasn"t realized it yet?!"

After observing a little bit more, Cecil was now certain that his friend hadn"t realized her awakening yet.

The referee did say he wasn"t allowed to interfere, but if this kept up... Eli was going to lose the match.

It wasn"t only him who realized this, but every member of Little Kings began to realize it as well. They were helpless to do anything to help. Lucia turned a pleading took to Cecil. The boy felt her gaze and he turned his eyes to her.

"Jeez...you"re telling me to do the impossible."

Cecil gave a wry smile, but he nodded his head. He turned his sights back onto the stage. Then he began to slowly release his intent, directing it only to Eli who was still fighting.

As the intent began to envelope her, Eli started to feel strained and oppressed.

"H-how come... I feel...so bad?"

It hadn"t even been 10 minutes since the start of the match, so how could she feel exhausted already?

"d.a.m.n...it feels like...I"m being pressured by Cecil–huh?"

She finally noticed someone near the edge of the stadium. It was Cecil and currently he was glaring coldly at her. Eli immediately felt frightened, and her intent immediately vanished.

This caused the oppressed Zephyr to widen his eyes and smirk at his sister.

"Hehe, so that stupid pressuring technique of yours has duration. Now, get ready to lose, sister."

Cecil was just about to open his mouth to say something when he saw Eli"s attention directed at him, but then he heard Zephyr open his mouth.

Eli widened her eyes when Cecil"s intent suddenly disappeared and after hearing what Zephyr said, her eyes widened even further.

"Pressuring...technique?"

She realized something and turned her eyes to Cecil. The boy only smirked and nodded in response. This caused Eli"s face to brighten. She closed her eyes and tried to find the feeling and sensation she felt earlier.

When Zephyr saw Eli close her eyes, he naturally thought that his sister had finally accepted her defeat. He gave her a gloating smile and said, "You can"t blame for this little sis—"

He was abruptly cut off however when the terrifying pressure from earlier resurfaced. This time however it was much more oppressive than earlier. He felt like he had a mountain placed on top of his chest, making it hard for him to breathe.

No, it wasn"t only his chest; it felt like weights had been put all over his body. He found it difficult to breathe and move. It was even hard for him to flap his wings and stay airborne.

The Intent had begun to spread to the audience and the roaring audience was immediately silenced when the terrifying pressure reemerged. It was even much stronger than before!

"Oops, forgot about that." Cecil immediately awakened his intent once more and began counteracting and containing Eli"s intent.

"Now you"re gonna get it, elder brother~ don"t make fun of a girl... that"s trained so hard in her life just to receive her family"s approval." Cecil playfully said.

Eli had opened her eyes, she felt...different somehow. She felt like she was in control. She let out a breath and began reveling in the sensation.

"So this is Intent huh...it feels good."

She finally took a look at her body and found her aura and mana flaring around her. Even the ambient mana in the air was gravitating towards her. It felt good. No, it felt great!

She was still staring at the mana flaring around her and then she raised her rapier. She saw the Intent and aura combining, circulating in a peculiar fashion around her weapon. She suddenly found inspiration for a new sword skill.

She turned towards her brother who was forced to the ground. The sudden change in the battle had surprised everyone in the stadium.

"...I"m going to end this." Eli softly said.

"Guh...arrrrggghhhh!!! Like h.e.l.l you will!!!" Zephyr raised an angry roar in reply.

"..."

Eli readied her rapier and stretched her sword arm behind her. She leaned her body forward and aligned her shoulders perfectly with her weapon. She began channeling her mana into her rapier and circulated it in the same peculiar manner as her intent and aura had moved.

A change happened on her weapon, the aura, mana, and intent began to blend together and the rapier began to shine brightly in the color of her aura. The stadium"s temperature began to rise up immediately.

Then the mana circulating around her weapon began to flow back to her body and it moved in an uncomfortable manner.

Eli felt odd, but it was like the mana was compelling her to do something. So Eli followed this feeling and readjusted her body"s posture.

She straightened her body, aligning her shoulders with the rapier with her other hand stretched and pointed forward at her target, Zephyr. She leaned slightly forward and finally felt the mana circulate around her comfortably.

Her aura spiked up and largely flared around her. This sudden changed caused everyone to widen their eyes in astonishment.

Cecil was already grinning when he saw Eli"s change as he cried in his mind, "You feel it too don"t you Eli!"

"This is more comfortable... now..." Eli eyed her brother. She narrowed her eyes and dashed forward.

She disappeared and suddenly arrived about a meter in front of Zephyr in the next instant, it was like she had teleported. Zephyr was still surprised at her sudden disappearance that he hadn"t even registered the fact that his sister was already in front of him.

"FLASH! CRIMSON SKIES!!!"

Eli yelled out her new sword skill and she moved her sword arm to thrust in front of her. It felt excruciatingly heavy to move her rapier.

But, what she didn"t understand was that she was moving too fast, her entire body had already been enhanced with the mana intent. The change was only temporary, but the enhancement was out of this world.

It was just like how Cecil felt when he tried to move when he had "hypersensitivity" active.

Eli gritted her teeth and yelled as she stubbornly tried to move her body.

"RAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!"
