Reincarnated With The Van Helsing System -
Chapter 395 The Fourth Round (Part 6)
All this time the spectators have been unconsciously following the trace of Daimon's group through the mirror plates, but after seeing what the Risha sisters, Jasmine and Cassy could do now, a question couldn't help but appear in their minds.
"If the "normal" members of the team are this strong, how strong is the vice-captain", they wondered.
They already saw Yvonne in action, and she was quite domineering, her wings were hidden thanks to the effect of the bracelet, so for the spectators she was floating on the air shooting down her opponents from above.
For those who can't fly, an enemy with the capacity to move in the air is one of the worst nightmares, because those below the Arch rank can't fly, and even if one launches spells, you have to take into account the natural effect of gravity which pulls down objects towards the core of the planet.
In other word, shooting spells upwards is harder than any other direction, not to mention Yvonne wasn't leaving them even breath properly, and instead used every aspect to suppress the enemies, like a strategist would, but also participating to prove her personal strength wasn't lacking.
As for Daimon, he hasn't met an opponent of his caliber, so besides being impressed by his reflexes and physical strength, they still wanted to see him fighting another captain, well there was also another thing about him that surprised the crowd.
And it was how he was moving with ease despite carrying five girls, as if he was used to do such a thing.
Back at the maze, besides Daimon there was another purple flash rushing through the corridors and speed running the different rooms, unlike Daimon whose lightning was wild and chaotic, since he was using battle aura.
Aisha's lightning was perfectly regulated and controlled, she seemed like a purple fairy dashing through the maze, attracting the gazes of the male spectators, though she was disguised and half of her face was covered by a mask just like Daimon, so her face couldn't be seen.
It was impossible for her not to stand out, just like a star can't stop dazzling, especially because for a member of the young generation her rule over her element was incredibly good, she surpassed Daimon in that aspect, though it made sense, since she used to be a peak stage Arch mage, her powers were lost but her comprehension and experience were still there.
Aisha's elegant figure suddenly slowed down a bit, she stopped with ease despite the high speed at which she was running, she extended her finger and after covering it with a thin layer of metal mana, she cut an invisible string that was blocking her path and a lot of curve knives fell from the ceiling surrounding Aisha, there were around one hundred of them.
"Come out, I know this wasn't a trap set up by the maze", said Aisha with a calm voice.
A slim figure came out from one of the doors that was a couple of meters ahead from where Aisha was standing, it was one of the few people that actually caught Aisha's interest among the other team's participants, the glassed knight who is also Lance's scholar.
But he wasn't alone, there was also a couple of Lance's subordinates with him, for a total of four people.
"Brother Lance doesn't like ambushes nor team fighting against a sole enemy… but you are too dangerous to be fought head on alone, please forgive me", said the glassed guy as he bowed his head.
The neo nobles were a bunch of battle maniacs, but they had their own pride, never bullying the weak, standing up to the strong and never ashaming themselves, those were their ideals.
That didn't mean they were stupid and hot blooded, as the glassed guy was proving they also were skilled in the art of war.
Aisha looked at her surroundings, there were curve knives all over the place, also the two guys were ninth star mages, while the glassed guy was actually a Knight Lord, not only that, the knives weren't made out of metal but some kind of ore which didn't conduct electricity, in other words this specific set up was prepared to fight either her or Daimon, since they have shown to have lightning affinity.
'I guess that Lance guy has my darling's interest for a reason, but I can say the same about his subordinates, the others are all focusing on reaching the throne room, but this scholar didn't follow the tendency and instead ran on the contrary direction to intercept others', thought Aisha.
"You two stay behind and support me, you are no match for her, understood", the voice of the glassed scholar turned dead serious, there was authority in his tone, and the two mages obediently followed the orders.
They jumped backwards and then chanted.
"Wind Coat!".
"Wind Boots!".
Currents of wind gathered around the glassed scholar, he also released his battle aura and a wild whirlwind covered him, he essentially turned into a living tornado, but that wasn't all, a few of the curved knives raised from the ground and started rotating around the scholar.
Aisha raised an eyebrow, every boosting spell put a certain amount of strain on the body of the target, the scholar was currently being double boosted, not to mention he was using a martial art at the same time, which required a high amount of control so that his battle aura, didn't clash against the mana of the spells.
The scholar dashed frontwards and the wind as well as the knives followed him, creating cuts and other marks on the floor and walls of the maze.
"Blade Hurricane Fist".
Aisha smiled, the scholar was going all out from the very beginning, so she responded in kind.
Besides the lightning, metal mana surrounded her, while the display of a knight balancing boosting spells and a martial art at the same time was quite a sight to behold, the truth is that they were both of wind element at the end of the day.
But Aisha could do the same with boosting spells of different elements, which is even harder and naturally has an even better result, not to mention the spells she used were created by her which meant they perfectly complimented her fighting style.
"Lightning Empress", Aisha's skin and hair were now glowing in a pretty light purple light, it was as if the goddess of lightning herself had descended into the maze.
But the beauty increasing of this purple light wasn't the only thing that Aisha's spell did, the air around her was trembling and crackling, even without her doing anything, all the knives that were near her were blown away.
The two mages gulped down, even if they were far from the frontline their legs were trembling, since the very moment Aisha used her boosting spell, as experienced fighters who have followed the hellish training traditions of the neo noble faction, they could tell… that in this state if Aisha wanted to, she could kill them in a matter of seconds.
The scholar wasn't that different though, the wind mana that was surrounding her previously had diminished as if it was afraid of Aisha's mana, and he also felt a suffocating pressure falling on him.
"I know you have your reasons, unfortunately I'm the same".
No more words were spoken, both Aisha and the glassed scholar and Aisha moved, green light and purple light clashed head on, what followed was a huge shockwave and the sound of metals colliding echoed through the whole corridor.
"Booom!".
"Aghhh!", the two mages couldn't keep their mouths shut, they were both attacked by wind blades and also smashed with lightning that not only burned their skin but also cut them, it was like being in the middle of a rain of blades, there was no way to escape.
The life-saving array activated and saved them, but instead of worrying about themselves, they stood up and tried approach the point of collision.
Aisha who was still cladded in lightning, slashed with her sword and the leftover wind as well as the dust that was raised due to the clash, was dispelled.
The result was that the floor and walls of the maze had deep cuts and even missing parts where the stone was bright red due to the heat produced by Aisha's lightning.
The scholar was laying down on the ground, besides the glassed being destroyed as well as some slight cuts and thorn out clothes, there were no more wounds on him, but the life-saving array was protecting his neck, where Aisha's sword was resting.
"Thanks for showing mercy, even with my all I would have lost an arm before the array kicked in", said the scholar with a bitter tone, despite all the preparations made beforehand based on the information he could gather regarding Aisha, the result was a one-sided short battle.
Aisha retrieved her sword and sheathed it again.
"What are you saying, a girl should take care of her skin, specially if you want to get the attention of your beloved~", she mumbled.
The scholar was speechless for a second, she looked downwards to see her thorned up clothes, there was nothing showing, so her cover wasn't blown away so how was she discovered.
Aisha giggled, how could she who was fighting for Daimon not recognize another girl who was doing the same for her beloved, to the point that she resorted to an ambush and even team fighting, despite the beliefs of the neo nobles.
"You still managed to hold me back a couple of minutes, let me tell you that any other vice-captain wouldn't have lasted more than fifteen seconds against me in that state, they said your name was Julio, so what's the real one".
The scholar sighed and then mumbled in a different voice, a female one.
"Julia, my name is Julia Gale, please don't mention this to anyone else".
Aisha nodded.
"If you have to be wearing man clothes, you already have enough problems as it is, good luck".
After saying that, Aisha became a purple flash and disappeared from the corridor through, entering through the door from which the scholar appeared before.
The previous conversation was done in low voices, so let alone the spectators which were still awe after seeing the previous battle, even the two mages that were slowly approaching the scholar didn't hear them.
The scholar cleared her throat and then got up from the ground, before her voice changed back to a male one.
"We lost really bad, once we return a month of intense training is in order!", she shouted.
"Yes, vice-captain!", answered the two mages, as they were all transported out of the maze.
…
Outside of the maze, the spectators were going crazy, people with dual affinities that complemented each other were rare, to see someone who can get an increased effect out of two spells of different elements is even rarer, and a boosting spell that used not only two elements but two boosting spells of said elements to be casted was unheard off.
The Minister at this point was feeling outraged, he abruptly turned to see the queen who was enjoying a cup of tea, with a smile on her pretty face.
'This bitch set me up, how is that a vice-captain, she can fight with the damned crowned prince… no she and that brat can't join hands, otherwise Walford won't stand a chance, especially because the kid from the neo nobles won't join hands with our side, and instead would go for an individual fight!', inwardly swore the Minister.
He wasn't the only one getting a headache though, the Blackfin Duke and also the captain of the royal guard were both frowning, while Dominic and Vincent were laughing.
"Oh, as I would expect form the direct relative of my new general, she is quite something, I have never seen a spell like that", said Thea, Karmandi and Lina who were standing behind her nodded.
