Chapter 633 Frozen Nova Replica

Chapter 633 Frozen Nova Replica

Alice was aware that Michael had done something to pull Frederik out of his misery. However, she didn't expect that Frederik would grow so much stronger within a few days.

Her little brother might have been able to defeat Frederik rather easily, but that didn't mean Frederik was weak. It was the exact opposite. Being able to block some of Kaleb's attacks and reach top speed nearly instantaneously was incredible. If Frederik improved his mastery of Aeroan, he shouldn't have an issue dealing with most peers rather easily.

'He was only with Michael for how long? Ten days?' Alice calculated, her eyes narrowing as her eyes landed on Michael.

Michael and Kaleb were standing on the opposite edges of the arena. They faced each other and were about to clash.

However, Alice's mind was not with them. She was still bothered about the fact that Michael could transform an ordinary student of the Saphirelake Military Academy into a genius capable of facing the Descendants...in less than two weeks.

It was a known fact that the ordinary students of the Saphirelake Military Academy could be considered talented. They were the cream of the crop among all Awakened. Nonetheless, there was still a huge cap in talent between the talented students and the prodigies of the human race. At least, that was how it had been for the last few centuries.

'I hope he will be okay.'

Alice dispelled the dark thoughts that formed in her mind and focused on the match ahead.

Oliver Zeus stood outside the arena and cleared his throat.

"Ready?"

Michael and Kaleb nodded simultaneously.

"Set."

The youthful Awakened's bodies tensed up.

"Go!!"

Kaleb kicked the ground and burst forward while coating his body in the Nova Armor. He manifested the Legendary Arktica Staff Artifact from his War Rune and conjured tens of highly compressed Ice Bullets in a swift motion. The Ice Bullets propelled forward as Kaleb released them the moment, he finished conjuring them.

Michael raised an eyebrow as Spirit Eyes picked up some interesting pieces of information.

'He worked really hard to study the Ice Bullet Soul Technique. What a talented little rascal.' He chuckled in his mind right before disappearing from the spot.

Using spatial-attributed origin energy from the Sphere of Space to utilize Cosmic Stride lowered his energy consumption to a new low. Michael appeared next to Kaleb, whose eyes widened in surprise. He lifted his arms instinctively and it was not even a full second later that a fierce kick impacted.

The Nova Armor coating his arms cracked and shattered from the kick's force, but that was it. Kaleb wasn't flung through the air, and he didn't sustain any injuries either. Kaleb didn't prevent the Nova Armor from shattering even if he could, allowing Frozen Nova's terrifying cold to spread out and infest Michael's body.

"Having a unique technique that allows you to put everything on one card is great. It is," Michael said, scratching the back of his head with a wry smile, "But you should fix your timing."

Michael observed the incoming Frozen Nova with Spirit Eyes and chuckled lightly. He was fairly certain that he could crush the Frozen Nova by applying a Soul Tear onto Extraction, while also adding 10 layers of Enhancement. Maybe, he would have to trigger one Cursed Seal as well. However, Michael was confident at crushing the Frozen Nova with brute force, nonetheless.

He wouldn't even make a big loss as long as he inserted the extracted frozen energy into the Sphere of Ice to annex and reuse the energy.

But that was not what Michael wanted to show Kaleb. He didn't want to show his supremacy to Kaleb.

No. It was far more important that Kaleb understood why it was stupid to use his finishing blow right now, or against an opponent like Michael.

Until now, Michael had openly used Cosmic Stride, and two elements of the Spheres of Elements. He secretly used Insert and Extraction, but Michael quickly figured that it wasn't necessary to go this far. Once he pinpointed Kaleb's biggest mistake, it was only a matter of seconds before everything was over.

Michael didn't even use Prognosis or Spiritual Domination of his Spirit Eyes to overpower Kaleb.

But Cosmic Stride, as a Space-type Soultrait, was more than enough reason Kaleb shouldn't have unleashed his finishing blow.

Kaleb Zenovia barred his paths left and right as well as his view, but Michael had intentionally shown some of Cosmic Stride's unique properties earlier. The hints should have been more than enough for someone like Kaleb to pick up.

It was a little bit disappointing that he didn't notice the clues.

Michael permitted the Frozen Nova replica to burst forth. It reached his position in no time and crushed the entire arena.

However, there was no sight of Michael.

"Why would you leave your back wide open for me to attack?" A voice appeared behind Kaleb.

Goosebumps run down his spine as he rotated his head slowly, just to see Michael's devilish smile.

Michael flicked Kaleb's forehead, his devilish smile widening.

"Dead!" He whispered.

In the next moment, everything around Kaleb rotated black.
