章 167: Wind Waltz (2)
"Spear technique, [Nine-Headed Serpentine Spear]!" Arami bellowed.
Arami's glaive trembled. In an instant, four different glaives pierced towards Katherine from different directions.
Arami had not mastered this technique completely, but he was already able to form four shadow attacks.
Of course, only a glaive attack was real, the other three were just illusions. Supposedly, the completely mastered [Nine-Headed Serpentine Spear] could create eight spears shadows each one with actual attack power.
But even so, Arami's attack was incredibly dangerous. Most students would be unable to evade it!
Unfortunately, he was facing Katherine.
She read the flow of the wind and determined the real glaive. She then filled her hand with wind and took a step forward. Her hand extended softly towards one of the spears shadows, tapping it and deviating it from its path.
Instantly, the other three glaives disappeared.
Arami was astonished. He hurriedly pulled his glaive back to defend himself, but Katherine had taken advantage of the brief gap between his movements to extend a hand towards his chest.
Then, she opened her mouth–
"Boom."
–And the wind in her hand exploded.
Arami's body was shot back. It flew for a few meters before finally stopping a few centimeters away from leaving the arena.
With a bit of blood on his lips, Arami instantly tensed up. He twisted his glaive and brandished it to the surroundings to stop the wall of wind coming towards him. He then burned the mana inside his body and jumped aside.
The next second, the wall of wind exploded again.
Arami felt chills in his back. If he would have been one second late, the attack would have forced him out of the arena.
At that moment, a shadow materialized above him. Arami looked up and saw Katherine's wind-filled leg coming towards his head.
Arami snorted. He rotated his glaive and thrust it towards Katherine. However, Katherine used the wind to move aside and then used the spear as a fulcrum to launch herself towards him.
"Tsk!" Arami hurriedly evaded the attack and tried to counterattack with a swipe of his spear. But Katherine seemed to be able to read his movements. As soon as he moved, she twisted her body and cast a wind wall to stop the glaive. She then hardened the wind around Arami's glaive!
Arami's face turned pale. He tried to retrieve the glaive, but the resistance of the wind was too strong.
Using that instant, Katherine closed on him. She formed a spell on her hands and sent her palm towards his chest.
"Wind Magic, [Wind Blast]!"
This time, Arami was unable to defend against the attack.
"Agh!" Arami's body curved backward. Several of his ribs were broken, and drops of blood escaped from his mouth fleeing towards Katherine but being stopped by the wind around her.
Then, his body flew away and crashed against the ground.
At this point, the battle was already decided.
Despite it, Arami stood up again. He used his glaive to support his shaky body and stared at Katherine.
"Give up." Katherine said coldly. "You are not my match."
Arami smiled and spat out a mouthful of blood. "I think I'm not defeated yet."
Katherine frowned. "How stubborn. Do you think you can do anything with your injured body?"
Arami smirked. He held his spear in a hand and gestured at Katherine to attack with the other.
Katherine furrowed her brows. She looked at the headmistress to see her opinion, but the headmistress had no intention to stop the fight. Thus, she could only continue.
"Very well, if you wish to have a few more broken bones, I'll help you!"
Wind filled her surroundings. Katherine condensed the wind around her and formed three spells, one on each hand, and one below her feet.
Wind Magic, [Hand Cannon]!
Wind Magic, [Sky Dance]!
As soon as the spells formed, Katherine disappeared.
The next instant, she reappeared in front of Arami.
But at that moment, Arami smirked.
His glaive glowed brightly. The mana inside his glaive made the air around the arena tremble.
Then, he thrust the glaive forward.
Towards the ground below Katherine.
Katherine opened her eyes wide. She understood instantly his intention and tried to retreat. At the same time, she covered herself in a wind barrier and curled up her body into a ball.
The next second, the spear pierced the ground.
*Boom!!!*
A deafening noise filled the place, and a cloud of dust covered the arena. The weakest students in the stands were forced to cover their ears due to the strong explosion.
Curiosity filled everybody's hearts. They wanted to know the result of the battle.
However, it was already clear.
When the dust cleared, two shadows appeared on the arena.
The first was Katherine. She was panting heavily with her clothes slightly ragged and her body covered in dust, but she was mostly uninjured.
On the other side, the headmistress was holding Arami's unconscious body.
The headmistress checked Arami's condition and nodded. She then looked in Katherine's direction and smiled proudly.
"The winner of this combat is Katherine!"
Instantly, cheers erupted in the surroundings.
