Chapter 194 Conclusion Of Zero Vs Ruelle!

-CLANK! -CLANK!

”Why donʼt you just admit defeat? Even Omar Noel had been defeated.”

”Haha… Do you think Omar matters? As long as I win, Omar Noelʼs loss will not matter anymore.”

Ruelle laughed.

She had already given up on Omar Noel. As long as she shows her overwhelming power, other students on her side would not surrender easily.

She had already taken the place of Omar Noel. It was not in her plan as she was planning to be low-key and only help secretly. Since the circumstances have forced her to act, she has no choice but to do so.

She had already shown her real power. Since hiding it was no longer possible, she just had to take advantage of it.

”Zero! This is my real power!”

”I have already heard that more than once!”

Zero sneered!

Ruelleʼs face turned blue with anger. Zero was not respecting her as his opponent at all and all his replies were different from how a normal response should be.

She was acknowledging his strength and using her real power, the power of Rank-B and Zero was there, mocking her.

Angrily, she channeled a massive amount of mana into her sword and used her skill.

[ ”Overbearing Slash!” ]

[ ”Dark Icy Wall” ]

*****

-HUFF! -PUFF!

Ruelle breathes heavily!

The fight with Zero continued for quite some time and the result? Ruelle was totally getting crushed every time she made a move.

”NOOOO...!”

She canʼt believe this! She had been going at it for a long period of time using her full power but she was getting pushed back. Not to mention, the vast amount of mana that she had utilized to counter Zeroʼs skill.

( Just how? )

She believed that as long as she made Zero use his skill, he would have his mana exhausted. She was Rank-B and he was just a Rank-C -. However, it was she who found herself having her mana and stamina low.

Zero was still looking as he had before the fight with his arrogant smile. Her body was in a terrible state with cuts and bruises, and some of her body parts were frozen. While Zero barely has a scratch.

Zero had also slowly turned the battlefield that they were on, into a frozen place. In a radius of 500 km, everything was covered in ice.

[ ”Glacier Shadow Slash” ]

Zero has no intention of giving Ruelle time to rest. He would attack her immediately the moment he found her idle. Not only was it a matter of physically tiring Ruelle, but it was also mentally exhausting her, leaving her with no time to think of a plan.

!!!

Ruelle tried to raise her sword and cancel the attack but her mana has reached the limit. Since her skill failed to execute, she only had the option of using her sword as a weapon of defense.

-BAM!

Ruelle was severely injured and her blood oozed out like water from a tap. Honestly, if she was any weaker, she knew that she would have been killed by that attack.

-SHING!

”Surrender!”

Zero said as he raised his sword to her neck.

”Humph! Donʼt think you have won. Your friends are losing. Even you canʼt change this!”

Ruelle snapped while gritting her teeth.

It was a total humiliation for her. She, a Rank-B genius, was trampled by a Rank-C - first year. No amount of time was enough to make her forget this humiliation.

Although she lost, she expects the war to be won by her side.

Although she was lost, she didnʼt believe that she had necessarily lost everything yet. Even if she lost to him in an individual battle, as long as her side had won this war, she would be the ultimate winner.

”You seemed to have no idea about my power even after fighting with me for so long.”

Zero replied with a smile.

”You stay here and watch!”

Zero froze Ruelleʼs body and immediately made his way toward the battlefield.

*****

Right now, Arcane Academy and their allies were having the upper hand and it seemed it was only a matter of time before they defeated everyone on the enemy side.

Hiro Ernest, the only hope of Ace Academy, was also on the verge of losing against his opponents.

”Admit your defeat and surrender your tokens!”

Luciano Elderik said.

Luciano Elderik was feeling really good right now. With him leading the students, it seemed that they would win. He could already imagine all the glory and fame he would obtain after this battlefield.

( The Main Character of this tournament is me! )

Luciano Elderik happily thought. Right now, he was the strongest person in this tournament, deciding the direction of the tournament.

He even felt grateful to Zero and Hiro for stalling and decreasing the influence of Omar Noel and the Rank-B girl. Without those two, he would have never gotten the opportunity to lead the Three of the Top-5 Academy.

-THUD!

”!!!”

Suddenly when he was feeling up in the sky, a loud crashing sound came from the battlefield. He immediately turned around.

”Looks like you have already started the party without me! You should have waited for me.”

Zero said as he turned his gaze towards the enemy.

”ZERO!”

Many students call out his name in surprise.

The name immediately made the enemies shudder throughout the battlefield. They all looked at the person who entered the battlefield in fear.

”How? You should be fighting with the Arcane Academy Rank-B girl!”

Luciano Elderik said as he turned his head to look for Ruelle. His heart immediately sank when he found out the reason why Zero was here.

”Oh! That? Sorry, she is not enough to stop me!”

Zero pointed at Ruelle as he spoke leisurely.

Zero appeared just as when he went to fight with Ruelle. Arrogant with no sign of exhaustion.

The students on the battlefield slowly realized that the battle between Ruelle and Zero had been concluded.

And the winner was obviously Zero!

The enemies were terrified, while the allies rejoiced.

Luciano Elderik bounced back from his initial state of shock.

”Donʼt panic! Remember how we dealt with Hiro Ernest? Even if Zero is strong, he is only one man, not to mention he should have to spend a lot of mana and stamina fighting with Arcane Academy Ace!”

Luciano Elderik said.

”3 Rank-C and 5 Rank-D members from our allies, including me, will work together to defeat him. Other students continue to finish the battle as soon as possible.”

Luciano Elderik called out his strongest allies immediately.

He was 10 times warier of Zero than Hiro Ernest. He thought of Zero as his final obstacle to glory.

They listened to his command. Anyway, it was not them who was going to fight with Zero, so they had no problem following his order.

”Zero, we know that you are just pretending! Just surrender, we will not take your tokens!”

Luciano Elderik said to Zero.

Even though he had the upper hand, he was not stupid enough to underestimate someone who has beaten Rank-B -. He was more than willing to negotiate with him

He did not think that Zeroʼs tokens were worth anything compared to not having to fight him.

”Why donʼt you make me?”

Zero said while emitting his bloodlust!
