Chapter 173: Fighting Lia Scarlet

The first thing Leo did was protect himself with a mana barrier, as he was sure that Lia was going to use her gravity magic to try and crush him.

As for Lia, she did just as Leo had predicted, casting the Tier 4 magic spell 'Gravity Manipulation' right from the beginning, which allowed her to increase the gravity around Leo by many folds.

However, she wasn't done yet.

"Gravity Well."

Not only did she increase the gravity around him, she's actively trying to crush him with a second spell.

"H-He didn't fall! He's actually resisting Lia Scarlet's gravity magic!" The audience overflowed with excitement when they saw this because they were worried that Leo couldn't handle Lia's magic and lose to her like the other victims, as that would make for a boring match.

However, this didn't mean that Leo wasn't struggling, because he was, and he could barely stand still with this immense pressure bearing down on him.

'Flame Wall!'
