The Invincible Full-Moon System
114 I Lost
The third round is conducted just after a brief break for each university to rest.
Although their wounds got healed after the previous two rounds, it is still taxing mentally because of the continuous activity.
The mana control exhausts their mental while the second round tires their body.
It will not be possible if there's no high-ranking Awakened with healing abilities, the tournament will need to be dragged for days if that were to happen.
"LET'S GO!!"
"FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT!"
The crowd burst with cheer and shout, their eyes are glued to the arena.
Rex and Kevin are currently fighting with each other, they're making sparks of fire and lightning element every time they collided.
"HOW DARE YOU!"
CLANG!!
Both of their swords collided, they're currently in a stalemate.
Rex grins cheekily, he knows that Kevin is pissed off because of the sword in Rex's hand.
The swiftness of Kevin's speed is not something to shrug off, he flashes all over the place.
Kevin is attacking Rex madly, he doesn't want to believe that his sister gave the sword willingly to Rex.
Rex got attacked from all sides as Kevin flashes left and right, his inhuman reflex is the only thing that shields him from Kevin's relentless attack.
"Fire Demon Art, Ifrit Hellfire Domain!"
SWOOSH!!
Kevin's body burst with dark red flame as the flame covers the whole arena ground in flame, the dark red flame blocks the sand.
Seeing this, Rex jumped upwards.
Rex backflipped on the air when suddenly his eyes widened, the arena ground is completely covered, 'What a powerful spell, to actually cover the entire arena'
He didn't have anywhere to land, he's forced to land in the flame.
PSSHH!!
Burning sound is instantly heard when Rex's feet touch the fire, it scorches Rex's feet before he activates the force to protect his body.
After the force barrier appears, the fiery ground can't scorch Rex's feet anymore.
He looks to Kevin to only saw burning eyes staring at him,
Two redwings appear on Kevin's back that are made by fire, it is emitting intense heat because of the fiery arena.
'The Fire Demon Art seems to amplify all fire-related spells', Rex thought.
SWOOSH!!
Kevin disappear from the spot, it happened in a blink of an eye.
Rex was shocked, Kevin's speed got even faster somehow.
For a Fire Elementalist to have such speed, it is unheard of but Kevin did just that.
Fire Elementalists are known for their destructive spells that can destroy cities in a wave of their hands, it was their element nature to cause destruction.
Although they have powerful spells, their speed is lacking compared to the others.
It was a commonly known fact about Fire Elementalist that they're slow, it is the rightful handicap for having destructive spells.
Kevin on the other hand takes another route.
He focuses on spells that can increase his speed to cover that weakness making him an unorthodox Awakened.
This makes it harder for Rex to caught onto him.
'Damn this debuff, I can beat him easily if I'm not weakened', Rex thought.
Kevin suddenly appear behind Rex as he swings his fiery sword at Rex, it is enveloped by dark red fire that threatens to slash Rex in half.
SLASH!
Rex twisted his body as he dodges the slash, he moves in an unnatural way.
Although he dodges it, the sword still sliced his abdomen a little as it started to bleed.
Seeing this, Kevin is shocked by Rex's movement, 'He manages to dodge that? What kind of insane reflex is that?!', he screamed inside his head.
Rex once again manages to dodge it due to his insane reflex.
He sidestepped to the right, "Force Beam!"
Slash!
Rex's sword creates crescent-shaped white energy that scars the fiery ground, it makes the ground rumble.
Kevin replies with one of his fire slashes but to his surprise, it got destroyed instantly.
Unlike Kevin's slash that relies on mana, Rex's Force Beam is based on his super high strength that can even rival higher-ranked Awakened.
Kevin flapped his fire wings as he dodges them to the left,
'I need to do something about that wings', Rex thought, he then suddenly saw a smirk appeared on Kevin's face.
Rex frowns, he looks around before suddenly.
BOOM!
The fiery ground beneath Rex suddenly exploded, it charred Rex's body propelling him to the air.
Before he can even regain his standing, Kevin already charge his sword with fire.
He held his sword in a stance as hellfire mana got sucked into his sword crazily, "Fire Demon Art! Wrath of Hell!"
BOOM!
The ground cracked under Kevin's might, his eyes turn fiery before he slashes his sword at Rex.
ROAR!!
Kevin's slash shot out dark red energy towards Rex,
That energy turns into a dark red hulking lion that roared menacingly at Rex, it raises the already burning place's temperature to a terrifying degree.
It was the spell that gave Kevin his nickname, his signature spell.
Rex gritted his teeth, he's currently in mid-air and Kevin's attack is approaching him fast.
Then suddenly,
Rex's body glows with a hue, there are two kinds of energy enveloping his body creating thick white and black energy all over his body.
"Force Beam!"
BOOM!!
Under the crowd's eyes, Rex punched Kevin's attack.
The collision creates intense colorful shockwaves around the arena, the wind from the shockwaves can even be felt by the crowd because of how powerful the collision is.
'You dare to punch it with your bare hand? You underestimate me too much', Kevin thought in contempt.
Out of all his opponents through the years, he never once encounter an opponent that is daring enough to attack his Wrath of Hell art with their bare hand.
He's confident with his art's power, and it can't be destroyed easily.
But then, his eyes widened in shock.
The dark red energy got stopped on its track, it can't push Rex's hand back even with its insane power.
"RAARGH!", Rex shouted as he drives his fist into the dark red energy.
BOOM!!
Kevin's attack exploded, the mighty hellfire lion didn't manage to engulf Rex in flame.
It makes the crowd gasp in shock,
"That's Kevin's signature art! He destroyed it with a punch!", Evelyn shouted in surprise.
She knows that Rex is a powerful Awakened, but to see one of Kevin's strongest spells got nullified with his barehand was still come as a shock for her.
Rex got flung to the arena's wall because of the momentum in mid-air, he stepped the arena's wall creating a crack on it before his eyes flashes.
Seeing this, "WHAT?!", Kevin shouted in shock.
His attack didn't manage to heavily injured Rex, even his fist only got slightly burned.
Thanks to the fire resistance Rex got, he manages to tank Kevin's attack with no threatening injury that can faze him.
For him, this slight burn is nothing.
Rex's eyes glint as his arm muscle contracted, he gripped the sword tightly before he threw it towards Kevin.
SWOOSH!!
The sword slice through the wind like butter, it is lightning fast because of Rex's black lightning and the sword amplification that propels it faster.
Kevin jumped to his left, he didn't want to confront it head-on.
'Throwing his weapon? What kind of dumb move is that', Kevin thought but suddenly, "Lightning Salvo!"
BLITZ!
Kevin widened his eyes, there's a lighting strike blitzing towards him.
He jumped up to avoid it, he manages to dodge it with just a hair's length.
Kevin smiles mockingly when suddenly, a fist appeared right in front of his eyes.
Rex uses his sword to make Kevin dodge before he uses Lightning Salvo, in the moment where Kevin's focus was on the Lightning Salvo Rex already dashes towards him.
Kevin didn't have any chance to dodge, "Force Beam!"
BAM!!!
Rex's fists destroyed a translucent barrier around Kevin's body before his fist hit Kevin right on his face.
Kevin's face makes a cracking sound before he crashed to the arena's wall like a jet.
BOOM!
Kevin crashed to the arena's wall before he bounces off of it, "Akhh!", blood gushed out of his mouth because of the impact.
His nose is bleeding, it looks like his nose is broken because of Rex's punch. He leans on the ground with both hands, Rex's punch hurt him a lot.
Seeing this, the Faraday University jury stands up in shock.
'No, It can't be! How did it become like this!', he thought desperately, Kevin almost never got hit and it is for good reason.
From his stats alone, Rex knows that Kevin can't take many punches.
Unlike him who has a regenerative ability, Kevin is only a human and his low Endurance can mean instant loss if he got hit.
Rumble...
The arena's wall crumbles because of the impact, Rex takes his sword coldly.
Kevin raises his gaze to meet Rex's cold eyes, he then stands up with difficulty with heavy breaths.
"I'M NOT DONE YET!!"
BOOM!!
The fire around the arena's ground got attracted as it swirls around Kevin's body, it creates some kind of vortex around him.
Seeing this, Rex nodded his head, 'Kevin is strong, he will be something in the future', Rex thought.
Although Kevin provoked him, he didn't do anything disgraceful to him.
Rex knows this because of the small exchange at the beginning of the fight, Kevin is angry because Rex cheated on the tournament.
This means that Kevin didn't know about the cheating.
Rex concludes that Kevin did everything he did to him just to make him go all out, he's just competitive.
The fire swirl around Kevin's body creating a big fireball on top of him, it becomes bigger for each passing second.
Kevin's fire wings cover the fireball, it is controlling the fire mana around it.
The fiery terrain makes the fireball becomes even stronger, it splashes fire to the surroundings aggressively.
Rex smiles as he looks at Kevin who's fighting with his all.
The stubborn look on his face even makes Rex chuckle, 'System, how much time is left stored in the Lunar Blessing Storage'
<Lunar Blessing Storage: 0 Minute 5 Seconds>
Seeing this, Rex nodded his head, 'That's more than enough, let's finish this'
BOOM!
Rex gathers all of the force he can gather, he activates his black lightning as it cracked the ground beneath him.
The fiery ground around Rex got canceled by Rex's black lightning.
The crowd stands up from their seats, they can feel that this last clash between both of them will be the final clash that will determine the winner.
Ring of Tenacity is covered in silence, only both Kevin and Rex's powering up in the arena, Kevin aims the fireball towards Rex.
"Fire Demon Art! Demonic Blast!"
BOOM!!
The fireball exploded sending a dark fire blast towards Rex.
It disintegrates the arena's ground upon touching the blast, it is the most powerful art Kevin has right now and he puts all of his mana in it.
'If he survives this, then I'll have to admit that he's stronger than me', He thought.
But then suddenly,
Just after he thought about that, a sword suddenly sliced through the fire blast.
it cleanly split the fire blast into two before it stopped just after touching Kevin's neck, blood dripped from his neck.
WHOOSH!!
The wind flutters Kevin's hair as the sword stopped,
He doesn't even know what happened before suddenly Rex already arrives in front of him with his sword pointing at him.
Kevin widened his eyes, "I...I Lost...", he mumbles.
The arena is dead silent even after Kevin announce his loss, it felt surreal for the crowd to hear the words coming out of Kevin's mouth.
Hearing this, Rex retracts the sword before he leans it on his shoulder.
"HE WON!!", Muji shouted as he punches the air in delight.
Cinta on Muji's side puts her hands on her mouth as she gasps in surprise, the thing that is impossible is currently happening in front of her eyes.
Roar!!!
After Muji's shout, the crowd burst in excitement.
They all shout and cheer for Rex as they stand up from their seats, every people on the first floor start throwing roses to the arena.
"REX SILVERSTAR!"
"REX SILVERSTAR!"
The crowd shouted Rex's name in a union,
Kevin fell down to his knee as Rex waves his sword creating sparks of black lightning around him, he then raises his sword as a sign of victory.
The crowd got even crazier as they keep chanting his name,
Because of his win against Kevin, he finally fulfilled the promise he had for Rosie and her parents.
From now on, it will become even crazier, 'Now that this is done, next up, the Platchi...'
