Chapter 344: Chapter 336 - Maria vs C-760
Blair stared at the result board and frowned, he seems to be unsatisfied with the result as well.
"Tsk... Seriously, I believe this should be a win for your team, it is just the issue of timing, that Junior had indeed defeated Gerrard." said Blair, slightly troubled and ashamed by the result.
"Well, I believe this result is fair enough for both of them, after all, we all know that Gerrard's attacks are more to pure magic type, with the limitations, it's quite unfair for him. But anyway, I do think that Junior did a really great job down there." said Chris.
"Indeed. We are expecting him to get a draw, but never imagined it will be this brilliant... But seriously, Chris, I heard you whispering to Junior before the match, did you told him anything that helped him in such an improvement?" Sky asked, rather curious about the conversation between Chris and Junior earlier.
"Heh? I did?... Ah... Hold on... I think we are having some misunderstanding here, I merely told him that I had picked some good material from a traveling merchant and decided to make him a special weapon, I asked him if he is good with a blade or sword-based weapon and he gave me an okay hand sign." said Chris.
"But why whispering?" Sky asked, even more curious.
"Haha... Maybe you should check your money balance for a bit." said Chris with a smug.
"Ah..."
"But you still need to compensate my pudding, it's seasonally limited only for the tournament period. And it sold out yesterday." said Chris.
"Ahaha... Do you prefer another stone or maybe some exotic worms?" Sky asked, with an attitude change.
"Nah, I don't need another stone for now, and those worms sold in the town aren't that rare. If you want to compensate me, win that dragon egg for me." said Chris before stood up and walked towards the exit of the waiting area and greeted Junior who is a bit down...
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And with a short delay for restoring the field that was frozen by Gerrard, the third match started. As soon as Maria and C-760 stepped into the field, all the ladies became really excited and started cheering for both of them restlessly, but the majority are rooting for Maria.
"Maria-chan! You look really beautiful today!"
"Maria-chan! Let's go shopping after you win this match!"
"Maria-chan! I had made a special dress to pre- celebrate your victory in this final match!"
Sort of thing...
Maria looked at C-760, rather awkward.
"Uhm... Sergeant C-760, please don't mind about that, they are just being friendly with me." said Maria, he felt rather sorry for what the audiences did.
"Nope, it's totally fine, this is a match and the audiences have total freedom to choose which side will they cheer on." said C-760, in a polite tone.
"Ah... But still, I am sorry though." said Maria before tied up his red long hair preparing for the match.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The bell rang shortly after that. As soon as the bell rang, Maria covered himself in fire along with the whole field while setting up the inverted barrier, without the backfiring effect, the fire is even crazier than before. Not sure if it's the influence of his opponent, a dense scary shadowy aura can be seen emerged out from C-760 forming a pair of creepy wings behind him. Then, without wasting any time or moves, they charged towards each other directly without any hesitation. The clashes between them bring up a magnificent combination of Maria's fire and C-760's shadow aura. The redness of the fire and the darkness of the shadow aura clashed and mixed together forming a beautiful and gorgeous 'art'...
While at the same time causing the whole stadium to tremble like having an earthquake...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Meanwhile, Waiting area.
"Ha-ah... For Maria to be able to take such a crazy move even under the organizer's equal magic limiter, Sergeant C-760 surely has a crazy level of magic, didn't he?" said Chris, rather impressed by the performance of both contestants on the field.
"Yes, you are right. He is the one with the highest magic level among all of the C division's soldiers. And with no doubt, he is well trained to fight with his magic as well." said Colonel K.
Yes, surprisingly, this time, there are no crap talks.
"Yup, I am well aware of that. By the way, we will be facing each other on the field after this, I wonder what do you feel about this right now? Especially when you are the one that provided the forging room and lots of assistance for me to craft the sword that I am going to use later." said Chris, in a casual tone.
"Well, it might not be according to my original intentions, but it's not a bad thing to be the first person to test out the power of that new sword of yours. And it's also a good chance to gather data and information on how well the weapons can be made with our advanced forging room." said K, who doesn't seem to be upset with the unexpected changes in situation...
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After roughly twenty-five minutes of fierce battle, C-760 collapsed onto the ground due to drained off of energy and extreme heat on the field, there are a few obvious burn injuries on his hands and face. Maria is slightly panting as he glimpsed at the referee and Emcee.
"Oh my! Looks like we have a winner for this match! The victory for this match belongs to Miss Maria from Team A!" The Emcee lady announced as the audiences cheered in excitement...

Sky: "Ah... Haha. Yes, as Chris said."
Chris: "But look out, those scums might change this note to their own website link. So, be cautious.
Sky : "By the way, if the cover page is the old cover page that shows two stickmen, stop reading it, it's cursed and might caused the writer to stop writing."
