100 Is that it?

The arrogance of these lower races could no longer be tolerated, so without any hesitation, Irina lunged at Edge making a piercing motion with her short sword. Edge whose physical strength and mana capacity had improved greatly found Irina's movement to be too slow. 

He quietly stepped to the side at the right timing evading the attack with minimal movement. Irina was enraged that a human was able to evade her attack so effortlessly that she quickly did a spinning back kick. Edge blocked the kick with the scabbard of his long sword and then swept his leg hitting Irina's making her stumble and fall. 

Edge's movement were so fluid and precise that it took some time for Irina to understand what just happened to her. She was on the ground looking at the sky covered by the tree branches and was shocked. Every other young elf present were also stunned on how easily Edge dealt with Irina. 

On the other hand, the older elves were reminded of the time they met the last incarnation of the strongest mortal soul. That person's skills were beyond understanding, meanwhile, this incarnation seems to be softer, seeing as Irina was still alive. If it were any of the past incarnations of the strongest mortal soul, Irina would already be dead. 

Elenor sighed watching the scene before her. Even though Irina was called the greatest genius of the younger generation, it was obvious that she wasn't a match for the strongest mortal soul. The only beings that could even hold a candle to the strongest mortal soul at his peak, would be at least a great spirit, a deity, or an old God. Anything less than that would make a fool of himself. 

'I hope after this battle, he would be satisfied.' 

While everyone was stunned by the scene, Edge looked at the stunned Irina and spoke to her. "Is that it?" 

When Irina heard what Edge said she immediately grew even more furious. She stood back up and was now emitting bone-chilling killing intent. When Eri and Eva felt that killing intent they were about to move when Tsukiyomi stopped them. Eri and Eva looked at Tsukiyomi in surprise, usually, she was the first one to act when something like this happened. Tsukiyomi simply shook her head and smiled at them. Sarah then held onto Tsukiyomi's hand looking worried. Seeing this Tsukiyomi spoke to her in a gentle voice. 

"Don't worry she is no match for your big brother." Hearing Tsukiyomi's reassurance Sarah nodded her head and continued watching the battle.

....

Irina drew her second sword and took a different stance. She was now in a dual-wielding stance. At the same time she drew her second sword she started chanting something under her breath.

After cutting down the vines Edge saw Irina was already in front of him. Irina holding her two swords was ready to attack. The speed of Irina's attacks was almost as fast as Edge's [Crescent Moon]. Most of the people present could only see blurry movement, it was as if Irina's hands had disappeared. Yet despite the increase in speed Edge wasn't hit.

Edge was currently using Moon Edge Style, [Mirrored Moon]. This was a sword skill that uses mana sense to be able to foresee the opponent's movement. Edge could currently sense every muscle movement Irina was making. This allowed him to block all of her moves even if he closed his eyes. 

The clanging of steel echoed throughout the forest. Each strike the two made was powerful and deadly. After a few more strikes Edge was able to see an opening. He tapped Irina's left hand with his scabbard making her sword fly out of her hand. Irina was momentarily stunned by the sudden development which gave Edge an opportunity to fling her right-hand sword away as well. After disarming Irina, Edge was able to easily place his long sword near her neck. 

Once again the younger elves were shocked by the sight they saw. Edge was able to easily disarm Irina even though she was going all out. But the one who was the most shocked of all was Irina herself. She couldn't understand how she was disarmed. A moment ago they were evenly matched, she also felt that she was slightly faster than him. Yet how come she was the one disarmed?

"Is that it?" While she was still confused Irina once again heard Edge's disappointed voice. She looked at him and saw the disappointed look in his face. A human was actually giving her such a look. She didn't like it, but she had to admit Edge was superior in terms of swordsmanship. 

"I admit that you're better than I expected. But don't you dare look down on me!" Irina released an enormous amount of mana and pushed Edge away with a kick. Edge was able to block the attack but he was blown a few meters away. 

Irina started chanting while continuing to release large amounts of mana. The ground started to shake and from the below-ground, a giant tree came out. It was as tall as the nearby ancient trees and unlike the other trees, this one had legs, arms, and a face. Irina pointed at Edge and shouted at the giant tree. 

"Attack!" Before the giant tree could move, another massive amount of mana was released. Unlike Irina's, whose mana was sharp and bone-chilling, this mana was suffocating and heavy. She saw that the one releasing such a powerful mana output was nonother than Edge, and it seems like he was chanting something. 

Edge finished his chant and pointed his finger at the summoned giant tree. A lance of fire came out of his finger and hit the giant tree. Upon contact with the [Fire Lance] a hole was made in the middle of the giant tree's trunk. At first, Irina thought that was it, and the whole thing was just a bluff, so she was about to order the giant tree to move forward. But as she was about to speak, the giant tree suddenly burst into flames. 

The flames were so powerful that it turned the giant tree into ashes in just a few seconds. Irina felt her knees weakening as she slumped onto the ground unable to accept what just happened. That spell just looked like an enhanced [Fire Lance], it shouldn't be able to affect her treant. That's what she thought, but the truth was right in front of her. Even though she saw it she couldn't understand it nor could she accept it. 

...

The whole forest was silent that not even the chirping of birds was heard. The younger elves were shocked again and again, the entire fight and its conclusion was something they found hard to accept even after seeing it with their own eyes.

Elenor looked at the depressed Irina and sighed. She knew what Irina was feeling right now since she too felt the same way long ago. 

As Irina was looking blankly at charred remains of her treant, she once again heard the voice of the human boy saying something in his disappointed voice. 

"Is that it?"
