Chapter 300 Alexandra Constantine
"THEN GIVE IT UP FOR LENARD AND ALEXANDRA!"
"WOOOOOHOOOOO!!!"
The crowd cheered wildly as the host called for the finalists of the yearly tournament.
Feeling the cheerful vibe all around him, Lith felt excited as well. All his attention was now onto the arena ground and he was looking curiously at the finalists.
A muscular teen in blue robes of the sect walked to the middle of the arena from one side. He had a clean face and a scar on his face that was very notable and have him a rough and rouge look. His shoulder length hair was tied in a top-knot bun and he wore simple slip-on shoes.
The teen appeared to be in his late teens and had a serious look on his face as he walked to the middle of the arena towards the host and the referee present.
"LENARD! LENDARD! LENDARD!"
"GOOOOO LENARD!!!"
"SHOW EM THE POWER OF INNER COURT!"
"YEAAAAHHHH!"
"INNER COURT SUPREMACY!!"
"LENARD SUPREMACY!!"
The disciples watching went in an uproar as they saw Lenard walk.
Lenard however had no response to these people and seemed to be detached and more focused on his match.
From the other side of the arena, a beautiful girl, in her late teens as well, appeared out and started walking towards the middle of the arena.
The crowd noticed it and immediately went into an uproar again. This time, even more wild and cheerful than before.
"ALEXANDRAAAAAA LOOOOOK AT ME!!!"
"PLEASE MARRY MEEEEE!"
"PLEASE STEP ON MEEE!"
"SHUT IT YOU FOCKIN DEGENERATES!"
"GO GO ALEXANDRAAAAA!!"
"I LOVE YOUUU SENIOR ALEXANDRA!!!"
Boys and girls alike cheered for the beautiful girl. There was no hesitation at all to drag each other down to call Alexandra"s name.
But while they cheered, Alexandra, just like Lenard, didn"t bother to respond to them and simply walked towards her opponent, the host, and the referee.
Alexandra was a beautiful black-haired, red-eyed girl. She had pale skin that made her seem as if she hadn"t seen the sun at all and it wasn"t a sickly pale complexion, but a healthy pale one.
She was 180 cm tall currently and was wearing black robes of the sect. The clothes she had were custom made for her and instead of the usual daoist styled ones of the sect, her clothes had a slightly tight fitting and appeared more like a hanfu.
Her long, silky smooth hair were tied in a rough bun, revealing her alluring nape. She had a few strands of her coming down from the sides and all in all, she looked very gorgeous but the serious look on her face made her seem someone unapproachable.
"Oh?" Lith thought to himself as he saw the girl.
If he wasn"t wrong then…
Lith looked at his side and asked Sect Master Ling sitting beside, "is she a vampire?"
Sect Master Ling nodded her head. It wasn"t something they hid from anyone and Alexandra"s complexion definitely made her appear as either a vampire or a werewolf.
Ling looked at Lith and said with a smile, "her name is Alexandra Constantine and after she graduated from the Abalax World Academy four years ago, she joined our sect and is now a core disciple here. She"s just 21 and yet already a Rank 8. We believe that she will definitely be at least a Half Emperor Rank."
Ling didn"t hide things about Alexandra as these things were already known to the public. She only hid the important bits that many didn"t know about.
Lith wasn"t too interested in knowing things in great detail. He got a general idea of Alexandra and had a rough idea about who she was.
If Lith wasn"t wrong, there was once a Count clan with the name of Constantine. It was present before his mother took the throne and under the King, it was very prosperous and strong.
This clan had the chance to become a Duke Clan soon. They had lots and lots of talented people and a lot of unique resources that could push combat strength greatly. But in the end, it wasn"t possible as the clan ended up doing something severely wrong that resulted in the King taking action personally and killing almost all the people of the clan and banishing the rest of the low ranking members out of the Vampire Continent.
After the Count clan was removed from its position, all the resources it had were distributed equally among the n.o.bles who were involved in exposing the Count clan and were rewarded heavily by the King at that time as well.
Lith wondered whether the girl in front was someone from the former count clan or not. He wasn"t sure if it was just her name or if she had any connections with the former count clan.
But whatever was the case, he had gotten a lot interested in her. He made plans to meet up with her later and see for himself what the case was.
Alexandra walked to the middle of the arena ground and as soon as the two finalists arrived, the host shook both their hands and said to the crowd cheerfully,
"ARE YOU READY FOR THE FINAL MATCH OF THIS YEAR"S TOURNAMENT!?"
"YEAAAHHHHH!!"
"THEN CHEER LOUDLY AND GIVE IT UP FOR THE FINALISTS ONE LAST TIME!"
"WOOOOOOOOO!"
Once again, the crowd went into an uproar.
Lith was also a bit excited to watch the two fight. He was looking forward to this.
The referee looked at Lenard and Alexandra and asked the two, "are you two ready?"
Both nodded.
"Take your positions."
Lenard and Alexandra both went to the extreme ends of the arena and stood there in their battle stances.
The referee looked at them once to ensure they were prepared.
He then raised his hand and said, "on my count of 3."
"3… 2… 1…"
"FIGHT!"
CRACK!
Lenard and Alexandra both explosively dashed towards each other from their places, causing a lot of cracks to appear on the ground.
Lenard took out a black staff from his pocket and chanted while rushing towards Alexandra:
"Deeper than darkness, darker than abyss, come out my summons, the nothingness you leave."
Crack! Crack! Crack!
"VRAAAAAAAK!"
"KWAAAAAAA!"
As soon as Lenard finished chanting, out of ground and from the air, s.p.a.ce fluctuated and portals at various spots opened up.
Out of these portals, a lot of undead were starting to come out. But since it was still day time and not night, they screeched their way to death.
Lenard was expressionless and felt nothing for these undeads to die.
He continued chanting:
"Evershines even the deepest darkness, I pray to you, bless these summons."
As soon as Lenard finished his chant, the surrounding atmosphere turned brighter than before and thousands of rays of light descended down from the sky above and fell on the undeads coming out of the various portals.
But to everyone"s surprise, the undeads who were dying before didn"t die this time or make screeching noises. Instead, they fully emerged from their respective places and charged towards Alexandra.
"HOLY s.h.i.t! SENIOR LENARD IS SO d.a.m.n OP!"
"I KNOW FOCKIN RIGHT!?"
"WHAT DID HE DO TO THE UNDEADS!?"
"WHAT DID HE DO!? WHAT DID HE DO!?"
"FUUUCCCCCKKKK SO f.u.c.kING COOOL!"
Lith who was paying attention to the battle smiled watching Lenard. "So he has Light as well as Death affinity? Interesting."
Alexandra was still rushing towards Lenard despite a huge army of undeads trying to attack her.
She took out a double bladed sword from her spatial ring and swirling it around her body, she prepared herself for the incoming attacks.
Lenard raised his staff and spinning it around in the air, he chanted a command for the undeads slowly in a low voice.
The undeads screeched as they heard his command and changed their trajectory. They didn"t attack Alexandra directly but went behind her.
The flying undeads and spectres all flew to the back of Alexandra and prepared to attack her from behind whereas the walking undeads like ghouls, zombies, and various other ones walked behind Lenard and prepared to attack Alexandra from the front.
Noticing the upcoming onslaught, Alexandra quickly cast Short Jump and closed in on Lenard.
CLANG!
Alexandra"s sword hit Lenard"s staff as she attacked him on his back.
Lenard knew Alexandra could use s.p.a.ce spells and was ready in case she ever tried to hit his vitals from a close range.
Lenard turned back and punched Alexandra on her stomach but ended up punching air and having a gush of blood come out of his shoulder.
Alexandra did a flip as Lenard tried to pinch her and halfway in the air she slashed his shoulder.
Lenard ignored his injuries and using s.p.a.ce spells, he teleported away from her.
Just like Alexandra, he too had s.p.a.ce affinity and since he also had Death affinity, he could easily let his army of undead attack Alexandra from a long distance. He only charged at her to test her short range combat skills and noticing how fast her reaction time was and how advanced her reflexes were, he changed his strategy of clashing head-on.
Alexandra didn"t cast Short Jump like Lenard again and followed him as doing so would only make her teleport in the middle of the undeads. There were undeads everywhere and since Lenard was the one controlling them, there were no problems in him teleporting away.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Alexandra could only slash her sword at the undeads attacking her and kill them in one large sweep while making her way towards their leader, Lenard.
Looking at her from afar, Lith was amused with her fighting skills. "She just attacked him once but ended up hurting him. Her reflexes sure are amazing and one sweep resulted in the death of 17 undeads there. Her strength is amazing as well."
He looked at her with an even more interested gaze and thought internally with a smile,
"Is she really from the Constantine Clan?"
