Otherworld Adventure

Opposite of her was the Alchemy Faction Leader, Manden Krulle. The person was a... tall bearkin female with long black hair and cute little black bear ears on her head. She seemed pretty laid back despite being on the stage.

The faction leader only nodded her head in greeting and she then began chanting an incantation. From what Cecil could see, it was most likely spatial magic. A large black magic formation formed in front of her and a large Blade Ursa materialized on top of it.

"WOAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!"

The entire crowd immediately began cheering when the large Blade Ursa appeared. Just like every alchemy faction partic.i.p.ant, Manden Krulle would also be using a battle pet to fight her match. Once the Blade Ursa was summoned, Manden took a step back. It was clear she wasn"t going to partic.i.p.ate in the fight and would only let her pet do all the battling.

The Blade Ursa was a little unique, not like the typical ones you would see in the wild. This Blade Ursa was at least 2 meters larger and was equipped with armor and weapons. The most frightening part of the equipment was that all of them were magically enchanted and engraved with complex runes.

Just the sheer amount of money put into the bear"s equipment was frightening, but that"s just what"s expected of the Alchemy Faction"s Leader, right? With her skills she was bound to have a large amount of wealth stored up.

Fina felt a little intimidated. Not because of the bear, but because of the equipment. The amount of wealth put into this creature was mindboggling. She turned to look at the custom national-grade robe and protective armor on her and thought, "Even I"m not that well equipped."

Fina pulled out her wand and summoned her familiars around her. She then quickly put her wand away and waited for the referee to start the battle.

"Ready?!"

"Mhm."

"..." Manden only nodded her head in response. The Blade Ursa roared powerfully and began directing an insane amount of blood thirst at Fina.

"Urk..."

"Nonono... I won"t lose to this bear!"

Once the referee got their confirmation, he quickly announced the start of the battle.

"FIGHT!"

"ROOOOAAAARRRR!!!"

The Blade Ursa immediately rushed forward, the crowd was already roaring along with the monster, but there was also some of the audience who feared for the little girl that was facing against such a monster.

"I-is the little one going to be okay?"

"I don"t think I can watch this!"

"Hey Ref!!! You better not let anything happen to the cute little girl!!!"

Fina who was just about to rush forward to meet the bear stumbled when she heard the audience. "I-I"m not some helpless little girl..."

Well, who could blame them? Fina looked more like a non-combatant like Manden Krulle, but from her outfit she seemed like a mage. When the spectators saw her conjuring water familiars all around her this just confirmed it.

What they didn"t expect though was that Fina would put away her wand and take up a fighting stance like a close combatant. This only piled up onto their worries when the girl stumbled and almost tripped just as she was about to dash forward.

"ROOOAAARRRR!!!"

The Blade Ursa however did not care. It had already arrived in front of the little girl and swung its magi-steel covered claws. The claw weapons that the monster was using immediately lit up with a green glow in mid-swing.

Fina quickly backed up and dodged to the side. She just barely dodged the wind blade that flew above her head. Fina quickly rolled away and stood back up. She glared back at the bear and recomposed herself.

"Wooh...let"s do this."

Her eyes sharpened and she circulated mana into her arms.

"Deploy, Mana Armament: Sword."

With a short chant and a wave of her hand, mana began to gather together and coalesce into a solid form. When she grabbed at the air in front of her, a blue aura shaped short sword formed in her hands.

The wavering bluish aura began to stabilize and a solid blue short sword quickly formed. The crowd was surprised at this, and so was every important personage in the private rooms. It was obviously an original spell, but it was one that was unheard of before.

"F-Fina...did she just create a weapon from mana?" Velicia asked incredulously.

"Yup~" Cecil answered with a grin.

"W-what the heck?"

"It"s her original magic," Cecil eyed his bewildered friends and continued, "It"s based off of her familiar summoning magic. I heard that it was her family"s core technique. They"re able to condense mana and give it form.

The concept is this same with her familiars, but this time I asked her if she could create weapons from them. She never tried it before, but as you can see, it"s plausible. I call them "Mana Armaments"."

The battle ensued and Fina enhanced her body using combat skills and strengthening magic just as Ainz did in his match.

"Once she creates them, just like her familiars she won"t have to sustain them using too much mana, and if they"re destroyed she could just simply recreate them. The best part about it is that the Armaments can act as a replacement for her wand. She could also add additional properties and attributes onto her Mana Armaments."

Lucia was deep in thought as she began mumbling to herself.

"...that means add an explosion factor, throw them while adding a homing property, apply the freeze attribute and–"

"Ah! There it is!" Cecil said while pointing back at Fina"s fight.

The little girl was darting dangerously close around the Blade Ursa, and as if to prove all of Lucia"s words, she was constantly throwing her Mana Armaments at the monster. Fina didn"t even need to aim as she had already applied a homing property onto her Armaments.

Also, as every Armament struck the Blade Ursa, it would freeze the part that it had struck. It didn"t even matter if it was a direct hit or not. Just a small graze was enough to leave behind a patch of ice on the Blade Ursa.

The Alchemy Faction"s leader was finally beginning to panic. She thought it was going to be easy since Fina was mostly renowned as the Little Kings" support mage, but she couldn"t be more wrong now.

How could this sword throwing little girl that caused freeze-inducing hits even be considered a support-back up mage?

It wasn"t only Fina who was attacking however. The familiars that she had summoned in preparations before the start of the match were also sending Ice Arrows, Water Bolts, and other low-tier magic spells at the Blade Ursa.

The ice wolf familiars were coordinating their attacks with their master. They swarmed together as one, overwhelming the large monster to the point where it couldn"t fight back and could only endure their freezing onslaught of spells.

After about 2 minutes of throwing Mana Armaments at the bear, Fina finally stopped. Manden thought that she had finally exhausted her mana and she quickly ordered her battle pet to launch its counterattack.

"RRRRRROOOOOOAAAAAARRRRR!!!"

After enduring so much pain, the Blade Ursa was obviously now in a very bad mood. It had even gone berserk as it roared out at Fina. The little girl however wasn"t even fazed at this. She dispelled all her familiars with a wave of her hand.

Then she raised her hand at the Blade Ursa and chanted, "Northern Winds embrace mine enemy, Winter"s Embrace."

SNAP

With a snap of her finger, all the Mana Armaments that were surrounding or were embedded on the Blade Ursa"s body immediately exploded.

BOOOMMMMMM

A silvery cloud of cold air burst in the middle of the stage where the monster was located at. The temperature in the stadium immediately plummeted. Finally, when the cloud cleared up, the audience saw the Blade Ursa encased inside a solid block of ice.

It couldn"t move nor could it do anything. Manden Krulle was dumbfounded when she saw the state that her bear was in. She quickly activated a spatial magic to recall her battle pet to wherever it was that she called it from and quickly announced her surrender to the referee.

"WINNER! Aquafina Neftersea!!!"

The crowd erupted into a thunderous applause. Fina grew startled again at this. She ducked her head and quickly ran down the stage in a fl.u.s.ter. When she made it back into the waiting room she slammed the door behind her and slumped down onto the floor.

"S-s-s-s-s-scaarrryyy..." It wasn"t the Blade Ursa that was scary. She meant to crowd of people.

Fina"s was always timid and she never liked being in the spotlight. She nearly blanked out when the thunderous applause rose up around her earlier.

All the girls rushed over at the little girl and cheered.

Lucia patted her head and said, "Nice one Fina... see what"d I say? You could get strong if you wanted to, right?"

"!"

"Hihi~!" Lucia grinned when she saw Fina widen her eyes at her.

Seeing that, the little girl immediately cried in response, "YEAH!"
