Chapter 353 Team Battle Starts



"Damn it damn it damn it, I need to get out of here quickly," Zareena yelled in frustration.

Her fingers moved in complicated patterns, causing the golden leaves to weave and twist in a magical dance as she kept trying to break through the barrier that wouldn't budge.

Her attempts to cut through or destroy the barrier fell short, no matter how hard she tried.

"What should I do now?"

In the meantime, Seraphine was surfing through the water waves while trying to run away from the duo that was after her.

Her path led her away from the molten turmoil of the volcano, the fiery landscape gradually receding as she moved.

"We need to stop her now," The fire mage yelled.

They raced with enhanced speed, their footsteps mingling with the surge of mana. The earth mage used his powers to make medium-sized peaks and spikes come out of the ground in front of Seraphine, aiming to hinder her progress atop the water wave.

But Seraphine quickly split her water wave, using her spear to cut through the rising peaks with skill and determination.

The earth mage swiftly conjured additional levitating boulders, and the fire mage leaped onto one of them, harnessing its momentum to propel himself through the air.

He focused intently as he flew toward the peak of the water wave, his destination - Seraphine.

As the fire mage drew nearer, Seraphine's senses alerted her to his approach.

With quick intuition, she caused the water wave beneath her to abruptly descend to the ground. The once-living surge of water crashed with a resounding splash, scattering waves in all directions.

As the water waves rushed toward the earth mage, he looked around for Seraphine but couldn't find her. It seemed like she had vanished into thin air.

Behind him, all of a sudden, a water clone appeared, which caught him by surprise. He cut the clone in half quickly with his blades.

But one by one, water clones appeared from the waves.

The earth mage expertly balanced atop the water's surface using mana, and soon enough, the fire mage arrived at the scene as well.

The fire mage extended his hand towards the water, coaxing forth intensifying flames that began to consume and evaporate the liquid.

The heat wave and steam that followed it covered everything, making it impossible to see anything.

Abruptly, a billowing cloud of crimson-black smoke billowed outward, its ominous presence catching both the fire and earth mages off guard.

At this point, everyone in the Colosseum knows what that smoke means.

*Cough* She had one of the tools that Aizel used," The fire mage murmured.

Meanwhile,

Zareena kept her eyes fixed on a certain part of the barrier as her mind worked quickly to figure out what to do.

"Should I focus more on a smaller area?" She thought.

Zareena quickly moved the golden leaves, and they began to weave and shape themselves around her arms, making a sharp point.

With a look of determination on her face, she carefully focused her efforts on a smaller, more precise spot to break through the barrier.

"Damn it, still not enough."

Zareena didn't lose her concentration as she changed the shape of the golden leaves, making them longer and more pointed.

With a delicate motion, she set them into a gentle spin, aiming to create a concentrated force that would drill through the barrier at a single, meticulously chosen spot.

*Crack*

In a mesmerizing sequence, a minuscule fracture materialized right beside the point where Zareena's improvised blade was diligently working its magic.

At first, the crack grew so slowly that it was hard to notice, but over time, it picked up speed. Zareena's lips curled into a smile as she put all of her attention into the task, determined to break through the barrier's defenses for good.

As Zareena worked hard to break through the barrier, the two mages from the Kingsley family were in a tough fight against the red smoke that was getting closer. The thick, red smoke covered them, making it hard to sense anything.

Seraphine acted quickly to take advantage of the opportunity that the strange red smoke presented. She materialized a water clone, using its presence to divert the attention of the earth mage.

With a rapid and calculated maneuver, she appeared behind him, spear at the ready. His reflexes kicked in and he was able to deflect her initial blow, but the true Seraphine's second spear, thrust from an unexpected angle, quickly overcame his defenses.

With a twist of her spear, she sent icy strands through the mage's body, which quickly turned him into a frozen prison.n0veLusb.c0m

But, in an unexpected turn of events, a fiery kick pushed Seraphine backward, briefly stopping her triumph. The fire mage acted quickly and ran to help his trapped friend.

Yet, his attention was abruptly captured by the presence of golden leaves that danced in the air around him and the frozen mage.

"Oh, we are doomed,"

In an instant, the golden leaves spun around so quickly that they carved through both mages, reducing them to pieces without granting them even a moment's chance to react.

The swift and deadly dance of the leaves caused the frozen mage's body to shatter and crumble while cleaving the fire mage into numerous pieces.

"Sorry, I was late, are you okay?"

Zareena hurried to Seraphine's side, who was lying on the ground and struggling to breathe.

The fabric of the dimension unraveled, and they found themselves back on the stage as it seamlessly melded with reality once more.

"WOAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!"

"WOAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!"

*Clap**Clap**Clap**Clap*

A resounding symphony of cheers and clapping filled the Colosseum, a sign of how happy everyone was about what they had just seen.

"I-I am fine... just drained my core energy," Seraphine replied.

*Phew* We won at least; now let's go back."

With a gentle yet determined grace, Zareena cradled Seraphine in her arms as if she were a precious gem. A subtle breeze, almost as if guided by an unseen hand, lifted them both off the ground and carried them towards their kingdom's balcony.

"WHAT A GREAT MATCH IT WAS!!!" Shoka's voice boomed once again.

"Now we will take a little break, and then we will be back with our first team battle of the day."

"YEAH!!!!

"BLOOD!!...

"BLOOD!!...

"BLOOD!!...

"BLOOD!!...

"Good job, but you shouldn't have killed them," Raigun commented when he saw them arrive.

"I was worried for Seraphine," Zareena replied, and she laid Seraphine on the couch. Ashlyn quickly summoned a potion and made her drink it.

"So now, Seraphine won't be able to fight in a team battle, that means you are up, Aizel," Zareena said.

Aizel opened his eyes and stretched his arm. He looked towards the Kingsley family mages, who were discussing something in a group.

One of the mage's eyes fell towards him. Aizel licked his lips and smiled at him in response.

"You know, Aizel, you are looking like a beast," Daisy said.

"Is that so? Then I guess it's fine. No one can die in the team battle, right?" Aizel asked.

"Yes," Raven replied.

"But everyone will be able to feel pain, right?" He asked again.

"Y-yes," Raven replied, realizing what he meant there.

"Hihihehe..."

"So the ones participating now are, Me, Soren, Aizel, Raven, and Daisy," Zareen said.

"How should we plan, princess?" Raven asked.

"Daisy will be our scout, and Raven will support her.

"Soren and Aizel will be our main tankers and fighters, while I will support them.

"I am 100% sure that our opponents will not rush to find us first. They will set traps or try to divide us.

"What we need to do is find them first and take them out one by one or all together," Zareena explained.

"I think Aizel should pay more attention to his emotions in this battle," Raven said, as Aizel looked towards him.

"What I meant is that they might target Daisy which can make you go wild. You might even don't care about the battle anymore at that point."

Even Aizel nodded a little at her point.

[Master, you need to keep your emotions in check. But we can't forgive every Kingsley family member]

You are right, Sekki,"

"Don't worry, I won't screw up or anything. More like this idiot should pay attention, I don't want this idiot to choke again," Aizel said.

Soren simply nodded toward him.

Why the fuck did he do that for?" Aizel thought.

On the Kingsley Family side,

"Listen, this can't go like this. We, as five powerful knights sent here by the master, should prove our point.

"We can't let our master's image fall down," One of the mages said.

"We need to teach that kid a lesson too," Another one said.

"This time her woman will participate too. Let's teach him what it means to go against our family."

"NOWWWWW.... THE BREAK IS ALMOST OVERRRRRRRR........

"YEAH!!!!

"So without wasting any more time, let's welcome both teams from the Felgura Kingdom..."

"YEAH!!!!

"WAR GOD!!

"WAR GOD!!

"WAR GOD!!

"WAR GOD!!

"WAR GOD!!
