Chapter 32

"A one-vs.-one battle!" a loud announcement by the announcer.

The audience immediately cheered.

"Alpha!"

"Clover!"

That's what the audience is shouting. While the two groups sat in their designed seats, we covered our ears from the noise.

"Each group will have a representative. Note that it is a one-on-one battle, so choose your representative wisely. We will start after 10 minutes. " The announcer said.

"Who among us?" Relm whispered to us.

"I can if you want." Sandra spoke to us confidently.

"I can go." Elara also said

"Hey! I'm in! " Relm said with a snort.

My forehead furrowed. Why do they want to be representatives?

"I'll show them who the elite are!" Sandra suddenly said

"No! I'll take care of it, "Relm answered what Sandra said.

"I think it's better if I am the representative." Elara also said.

The three started arguing. They were already talking about what they could do when Copelan suddenly interrupted.

"I'm in." he just said and went down. That made the tree stop while staring at him.

All the representatives of each group are in the middle. Because Copelan is our representative in this round, he has the number given by the announcer earlier. He placed it on his chest like the others.

I looked at Sandra. She frowned while Relm snorted, and Elara happily looked ahead. I just shook my head.

"For the first fight...", a woman suddenly went up on stage carrying a ball. The announcer immediately put his hand inside and pulled out.

"Sayth." again pulled out one more. "Against the Tigers," he declared.

The two participants moved forward while the rest sat in their reserved seats in the front. The audience cheered as soon as they stepped on stage.

The representative of Sayth is a man who is obviously arrogant because he is smirking and has strong confidence, while the representative of the Tigers is also a man; he wears glasses and is very thin.

Suddenly, the big screen in front lit up and the names of two groups appeared.

Charles of the Tigers and Ace of the Sayth.

"I cheered for the tigers! Why is their representative like that? " Sandra softly whispered to me.

If it's a one-on-one battle, I'll choose the one that will definitely win the battle. But, I think the Tigers had reasons why they chose him as a representative. You probably won't embarrass your group, right?

They looked serious. Charles suddenly closed his eyes while Ace got ready. When he opened his eyes, two animals came out. No, scratch that! They are mythical creatures. I suddenly stood up at what I had witnessed.

Charles has the support of Werewolf and Manticore.They protect their guardian. But Ace's reaction was the opposite, because he just smiled while looking at the two mythical creatures in front of him.

Charles's face became upset at his opponent's reaction. That is why he attacked first. He closes his eyes as the mythical creatures move.

So he can control them.

He just stood there as the werewolf and Manticore looked hungrily at Ace. When it was close to him, he suddenly disappeared from his place and moved to the other side.

"Teleportation," Vandel mumbled suddenly.

That's why his smile never goes away and his confidence is strong. Teleportation is a nice magic. He can travel and teleport everywhere in a short time.

"Easy peasy!" Sandra said and rolled her eyes.

"Why?" I will ask.

"Meliora, teleportation is under air magic. You're using the wind to teleport everywhere. So basically, Copelan and I can do that. " She answered, but was still looking at the center.

I just nodded at her answer. I know!

I also faced the front. His mythical creatures were trying to catch Ace, but he was just too fast and suddenly disappeared.

When Ace suddenly teleported behind Charles, he kicked him in the back, which Charles couldn't avoid. He fell to his knees because of what had happened.

The Sayth group celebrated. Since their seats were close to ours, we could hear their chanting.

But what caught my attention was when Charles smirked. I could see it even though he was on his knees.

Ace suddenly tripped even though there was nothing at his feet.

"What was that?" I heard Elara ask.

The audience also began to wonder. Charles suddenly stood up and smiled, looking at Ace. Suddenly, I looked at his feet when a snake gradually appeared. It was tied to Ace's leg while his head was clinging to him so that he could not move from his place.

But Ace started shaking. He focused on the snake as if it was what he feared the most of all.

"Oops. I heard you like snakes. " Charles told Ace.

But Ace didn't seem to hear anything and just looked at the snake. Suddenly, Charles laughed loudly, which could be heard inside the stadium.

"I'm sorry. It's the other way around, "he said again.

Suddenly, the two mythical creatures appeared on his side. They looked at Ace as if he was a delicious meal. They were about to bite him when suddenly the bell rang loudly.

"Time's up. The tigers win. "announced the announcer.

"Is there a time limit?" Relm immediately asked.

"Probably Relm! Time's up, isn't it? " Sandra answered him.

"The time was on the screen the whole time." The Princess said, "Exactly 10 minutes." She added

Suddenly, the snake disappeared along with the werewolf and Manticore. Charles returned to his seat while Ace followed him.

"You freak!" Ace suddenly rushed at Charles and was about to punch him. Charles couldn't avoid it, so he was punched in the face.

He wiped away the blood that came out of his mouth and smiled, looking at Ace. "What now? I'm already a winner. "

Ace's eyebrows almost meet in a his answer. He was about to punch him when Headmaster Kane suddenly shouted.

"Enough! Proceed to the next contender. "

Ace suddenly dropped his hand and strongly sat in his chair.

Again, the woman went up with the ball. The announcer put his hand in and pulled out.

As soon as the audience heard it, they immediately broke down into a loud scream.

How strong is the Alpha if this is how others treat them?

The announcer pulled out again. "versus Star."

The two participants who were called immediately stood up.

The numbers 1 and 10? What will they show us?
