Chapter 319 - Third Stage Of The Competition (24)

Lile had started running towards the edge of the plateau after she had created the gorge between herself and Adrianna but she was not prepared about the fact that the Yeti would jump over the gorge. The gorge was too wide and very deep. She just wanted to run away from there and buy time to build her strategy. 

The Yeti lifted Adrianna from his shoulders and placed her softly on the ground. Adrianna created a protective spell around him because he was the only person who would be harmed against Lile's attack. Lile had been throwing one spell after the other on him. He was disgusted at Lile and started walking towards her with large strides. Adrianna also ran as fast as she could so that she wouldn't lose Lile. 

But Lile couldn't run once she neared the edge. She stared at the vertical fall. If she took that, it would mean Adrianna's victory. The nearest mountain was several hundred meters away. Seeing Adrianna nearing her, Lile started running along the edge to increase the distance between her. Getting angry, Adrianna pointed her wand towards her to send white lighting, which would have tied her up tightly. However, Lile dodged that light and ran ahead. The Yeti had gone too far ahead to catch Lile and Lile wondered as to how could the Yeti escape her spell. Had that been a human, he or she would have died instantly.

When Lile had thrown the red fireballs at Adrianna, one of them had hit the Yeti on the chest. He had fallen on his knees and was in tremendous pain. It was at that time, Adrianna mentally communicated with him. She assured him that if he allowed, she would heal him immediately. At first the Yeti had roared, but later when he could bear the pain, he looked at her with pitiful eyes. She went near him slowly with a lot of precautions. She had pacified him mentally to stay calm. The Yeti was surprised that she could even communicate with him. 

When she went near him, she took out a bottle of potion and gave it to him. The potion was so potent that he was soon partially healed. The wound was healed and fresh, tender skin showed instead of the burnt one. When Adrianna saw that the Yeti was in a better condition, she ran ahead to pursue Lile. Adrianna had run only a few meters in that snow that she saw the Yeti was following her. In his own way, he said thank you to her for saving him. Adrianna chuckled and ran forward. 

When they reached the slope, Adrianna was extremely angry to see Lile. She wanted to cast the spell but Lile created the gorge to distance herself. She was about to cast her spell on Lile that Yeti had picked her on his shoulders and she found herself jumping over the gorge.

The Yeti roared and started running after Lile. He wanted to capture her and make her his food. He had run so fast that within a few seconds he was near Lile. He stopped right in front of her. Out of fear Lile threw spells at him, but none of them worked because he was protected. He looked at her with amazement and then bent forward to pick her up, but Lile stepped back. She was near the edge and her foot slipped. She lost her balance and rolled. Knowing that there was a vertical fall after that, somehow she managed to hold on to the edge by digging her wand in the snow and using that as anchor. 

The Yeti bent forward to pick her up but Adrianna came and stopped the Yeti. She looked at Lile and pointing her wand towards her said, "Surrender!" 

Lile shook her head. "It is not so easy Adrianna. You will never defeat me. I will never leave my wand. Kill me and then step over my body to win this competition," she replied as she clutched her wand. 

"You forget one thing Lile. The condition to win the finale of the third stage wasn't to take your opponent's wand, it was to make the opponent fall in the center and whoever fell their first would lose it," replied Adrianna with menacing expression. 

Lile looked at Adrianna with a shock. She shouted to trap Adrianna, "You pup, kill me!" She was scared to go back to face her family's wrath. It would be better if Adrianna killed her. In that case she would be disqualified from the competition and Lile would emerge as the hero of the whole stage. 

"Do you know Lile that I can read people's minds?" 

Lile stared at Adrianna. Her hands became sweaty. 

"I also have the ability to communicate with animals." 

Lile looked at the Yeti with wide eyes. He looked back at her with anger.

Adrianna looked at the Yeti and said, "She is yours," and stepped back. 

"Nooooo!" shouted Lile. 

The Yeti stepped forward to grab Lile. Out of fear Lile left her wand and slipping off the edge. All they could hear was a painful scream. 

Adrianna and the Yeti stared at her. It was time for her to go back. She thanked Yeti, who was clearly looking very upset. Adrianna laughed at him. She snapped her fingers and out of nowhere, two deer came in front of him. As soon as they saw the Yeti, they started running and Yeti followed them to hunt them. Adrianna released her flare to come out of the competition arena.

The crowd cheered in unison. 

This time it was Isidorus who came to take her out of the arena. He created a portal for his queen and held her hand to take her out of there. They stepped in the middle of the field where they found other ministry members clapping for Adrianna. Isidorus pointed his wand to the sky and removed the spell. The entire area got cleared of all the terrains and the green field below them appeared. It was as if it was always there. 

Adrianna saw that Lile was sitting in a corner sobbing crazily but no one paid attention to her. Suddenly out of nowhere, a battalion of soldiers appeared around her.
