Chapter 203 Shocked Spectators
"Holy shit..."
"What the fuck...?"
"What just happened?"
"I saw some lights, some clashes, and then that \'boom!\' but... what just happened?"
"Monsters... "
"And they are what? 12? 13? Like hell they are..."
"Damn people... is this what you call a prodigy? A genius? An m-monster...?"
"Captain, what just happened? D-did you see?"
"Yes, vice-captain? What just happened?"
Many voices on the other side of the pavilion asked the woman in dark clothing and a man with a great sword hanging on his back.
The greatsword looked special and the helmet armor of this man with maroon hair was still just staring at the smoke in the middle of the arena.
The woman was the same and they both can not take their eyes away from the place two young ones were fighting.
Their eyes were wide, cold sweat covering their backs and their hearts beating faster than the others can think.
It required a greater strength just to perceive what had transpired in that place.
And the caption of the assassin squad and vice caption of this main knight unit was the only fortunate ones to be present there to witness such great dual.
The ones fighting were grandchildren of one of the most respected people throughout the empire and continent, but this fight was on another level in itself.
The knight vice-captain and assassin were the strongest ones present in this place and after seeing this match with their own eyes, they knew one thing… which was unbelievable.
Still, eyes glued on the arena, they both smiled in helplessness and looked back at their subordinates with a nod.
"First, the young lady is what we call a miraculous genius who knows her own strengths. And her opponent..." the vice-captain said and looked back after finishing half of it.
And she picked up after him and also looked back at the crater that had appeared after the clash of two beautiful spells.
"Sir Axion, the one known as child hero, I think it really is a correct title and story.
p
Definitely, young miss is stronger than him in terms of strength, but..." Her admiration-filled voice was genuine and after she stopped, the caption picked up.
"Young master Axion... he is flawless.
His movements, his spells, that attitude, it\'s like seeing our masters in their young days.
And as his powers are right now... I believe even I might lose to him in a spar."
At those words, all his subordinates behind him jerked their heads back at him in surprise.
They were shocked, and those words were absurd to believe in the first place.
He was a [Rank-4] knight and vice-captain of the main squad that guarded the house.
And although there were three [Rank-5] and one [Rank-6] master under the southern duke, this main squad was the main one to guard the estate.
And everyone here knew their vice-captain.
He was someone who would reach the rank of an [Rook] in the future years and if he said that he would lose to a mere child of 12... just imagining the prowess of this boy was absurd.
And his words were serious.
"Right... and we haven\'t even seen the start of the actual battle." She claimed while focusing on the stage once again that was clearing up from the fog.
The vice-captain was the same as he put his hands on the fences of the pavilion and focused on the boy that had come out of the shadows.
This side of the pavilion was filled with loud gasps, so loud that the family on the other side can\'t help but sigh at them.
Being the family of these weird ones was tiring in itself but, they were definitely special and good children.
Although they were troublemakers, they were cute to make fun of and play with.
The mothers of the two fighting in the arena had a helpless expression and, even though neither of them had seen the things that were happening on the ground, they knew their children were having fun at this moment.
The smoke cleared out, and they both were smiling while looking at each other.
And mothers were just some helpless spectators.
The grandparents were surprised, the little Anna had no idea what was going on, but she was happy because they were happy, and even though Zoe knew everything and more, she was just as happy as Anna on her lap.
Reinelle had seen everything with her special eyes and the deep astonishment of the fight and the fact that the one on the ground had never used even this much strength against her was eating her warrior\'s nature.
And the young mage boy was anxiously waiting for his turn in excitement… though now hesitant.
Not much time had passed and things there were now at a brief pause as the two opponents looked at each other.
"You are amazing, big sister~!" The boy in the arena spoke, gathering all the attention to himself.
The girl on the other side smiled at his compliment and nodded.
"You bastard~! How long are you going to just stand around like that?
Am I not even worthy enough to see the true strength of my little brother?"
Her voice was filled with ridicule, but it was stern.
She was just as serious as she had been and even at this moment; she had tried to attack him in imagery, but this bastard was just as much on guard.
He smiled with delight as if she had passed something like a test, and now he was really serious.
His eyes changed… and the whole atmosphere around him also changed but, she and the old ones were the only ones who felt it.
Not even the captains on the other side could feel this sudden heavy pressure oozing out of him.
A delighted smile appeared on her pretty face as she felt this pressure and similar to him, she also started exuding a heavy pressure, but this one... the two captains on the other side of the stands could feel this sudden change.
And… this one told them the fight was about to start.
The actual fight that will mark the second half of this spar.
"It\'s gonna be fun, isn\'t it?" she asked with a genuine face filled with excitement and hope as she tightened her grip around her sword.
And he nodded without hesitation.
"It will be a blast~. And from blast... I mean real blast."
A smirk appeared on his face and he had made his move.
And she was ready to receive this one, so she backstepped with her lightning-fast skill, and the spot she stood on… was blown up with an ear-shaking explosion.
