Bab 345: Quarter Finals (5)

Hime stood in the center of the ring and was waiting for Afeus to strike. The movement technique Afeus was using was indeed something she couldn't deal with. If Afeus were a stronger individual she would've been dead already. But since Afeus was too weak he hasn't attacked yet.

While Hime continued to wait she suddenly felt something hitting her from behind. The walls of her mana barrier were cracking. Hime tried to move away from whatever was hitting her, but it followed her as close as possible. Each layer of her mana barrier was being broken and the horrifying pressure of the mana ball could be felt coming ever closer to her. 

Even though it was evident that this attack could defeat her, Hime didn't panic, instead, she quickly tightened her defense by concentrating more of her mana into her barrier. The moment she did that Afeus suddenly appeared in front of her.
