章 33: 33. NOBODY JOINS SELECTION TOURNAMENT (3)

Today is the last day of selection tournament and the top 14 strongest participants are remaining in the tournament and of 14 students, 12 are of Class S meaning all students of Class S students are still in the tournament, this alone proves that the strength of Class S as top notch students of this year

The audience gathered once again and Participants gathered but today the atmosphere was very serious.

The students who will win today will be the representatives of Empire and Academy, so even if it's cruel only the strongest of 14 will go to Interschool competition

"Hello once again I'm your host of tournament and today is last day of our selection tournament where only best will be selected , and for today's tournament it's been decided that Miss Arina Grande will be directing selected for tournament team because she is only person who can do healers job!"

At first glance it looked like a very unfair decision for other participants but they also knew that every team that will participate in a tournament will have at least one healer and without healers buff and healing let alone winning matches making it to the second round will be rough.

Healers were the most precious support for any party and very rare people, a newbie healer can increase the battle power of a team by 10% while top tier healers can increase it by 75% . Healers are a type of light mages who focus on support and debuffs.

So it was a very natural decision to let Arina enter the team as she was healer on top of that she had a peak tier 2 light elemental python, which was considerably strong for freshmen.

"Now let's know how the remaining 6 will be selected, you guys just have to fight until the last 6 remain standing, remember that serious injuries are prohibited"

All remaining participants were now standing at a circular platform and a barrier of magic was made to avoid the audience from getting hurt because now the duel was not 1vs 1 but 1vs 13 which means any one can attack anyone during the match.

"Now then all participants are ready ? Go!"

After getting a nod from all participants the referee started the match and all participants got in battle position then launched attack at their nearest opponents some even teamed up to defeat strong opponents

Reus was fighting 3 guys at once while everyone else was fighting only one but no one dared to go near klaus as the image they had of klaus was of invincible man

'In drama, Reus had fought only 2 guys at once looks like effect of mine works have started to appear in this world, I should take it easy and look at how others peoples fight, the drama was fully made for showing protagonist as best but there was no mention of others'

Klaus thought as he was standing at corner watching the matches

Anna was a long range damage dealer so she had some troubles when fighting a close range assassin and she was running and shooting her opponent.

Her many shots were missed because of the moving target, Sam on the other hand has had it easy as his opponent was a mage but the mage was water element so whenever Sam attacked he made a shield of water like a shell and shot water bullets after gaining some distance

Reus on other hand was fighting with 3 participants at once and by using wind magic as support he was barely enduring their combined attacks.

Reus's opponent was two swordsmen and one water mage. The first swordsman attacked Reus but he parried it easily making the swordsman to be shocked and just as Reus was going to attack other guy also attacked him with a slash because of that Reus has to block sword and give up on counter attacking the first swordsman and taking advantage of this time the mage attacked Reus which was barely avoided by him.

Reus was struggling because of 3 opponents and then suddenly klaus who was observing them was attacked by a fire ball and a water spear which he avoided by a second.

'So these guys are teaming up to defeat me huh? Well it's the best way to gain fame for nobles even if they defeat me as 1 vs 6 they will still gain more fame'

Klaus thought as he saw 2 mages and 2 swordsman and assassin and archer ready to attack him.

"Amusing. What a great strategy but if you couldn't defeat me it will be a very big loss for you guys"

Hearing klaus's words a guy in brown hair and a better face shouted "Don't be afraid guys! We can do it! He is just saying because he wants to scare you!"

Klaus was surprised and thought 'There wasn't any mention of a guy like that who can act as leader despite feeling pressured in drama, oh well drama was made to show Reus as the only hero and harem king so it's not much surprising now'

And klaus got serious and he took out two swords and made a cross sign and directly rushed towards the leader guy 'I should fight slowly to know more about these guys'

And klaus made a vertical slash towards that guy but that guy still stood there unmoved but after a moment he took two steps backward and shouted

"Now fire the magic" and suddenly a water shot passed by klaus's cheeks

klaus was once again surprised 'Didn't expect him to use himself as bait '

Klaus dodged the attack and was about to attack again but suddenly an arrow came but klaus saved himself

"ICE SHIELD"

Klaus barely saved himself but an assassin attacked him from his back but klaus has now become serious and calm he punched the assassin from the side to which the assassin guy blocked but was still pushed back quite far.

Then the leader guy shouted "Use your strongest techniques , you shouldn't give that guy a chance to attack"

Hearing him all students nodded and activated their strong technique

"Immovable Sword Swordsmanship Technique"

"Water Current Swordsmanship Technique"

"Space Piercing Arching Technique"

"Shadow Kill Assassin Arts"

"Ice Serpent"

"Inferno Chains"

All these techniques were at lowest tier 6 and best was peak tier 7

Seeing this Klaus thought

'So they are sons & daughters of big shots of Empire'

And said "Now this is an interesting match! It looks like I have to show off some more"

章 34: 34. NOBODY JOINS SELECTION TOURNAMENT(4)

"Now this is an interesting match!"

As klaus said that everyone felt that the air around the stadium has changed, everyone sucked in cold breadth. Now, everyone's attention was on klaus and even those who were in middle of fight glanced at klaus.

Now, klaus had gripped his sword more tightly and his opponents were more cautious now, suddenly the leader guy felt something and he shouted

"Guys attack now or there will be no more chance!"

All 6 opponents of klaus got ready and both mages launched their spells and archer also launched the arrow, followed by these attack assassin also moved and behind him the two swordsman, it was perfect combination and unbeatable form for any person of same tier but...

"Too late to regret now!"

"VISERION SWORDSMANSHIP TECHNIQUE"

At this moment all audience saw, the technique of same tier that would even make countries with 1000 years of friendship in enemies, a peak tier 8 technique, every person felt the pressure of aura and mana emitting from klaus's sword and body.

Then a phantom of a huge Sky blue Dragon appeared behind klaus. All peoples felt the waves of bone chilling cold flowing through whole stadium. Their hair stood up and shiver ran through their bodies .

Suddenly the chains made of fire formed from ground and a ice in shape of serpent attacked klaus but klaus parried both with ice mana imbued in his sword and then taking advantage of a momentary move assassin tried to attack klaus with daggers but right then he felt a cold chill run down his spine

"7TH FORM___COLD BREATH"

And klaus moved past him and he fell on ground unconsciously and a layer of ice can be seen in his body, klaus moved forward

Now all remaining opponents felt the chill but still weren't ready to admit defeat cause it will be more shameful than getting defeated by klaus

Klaus then suddenly rushed towards archer and at same time fired spell

"SHADOW PRISON"

The spell made the mages immovable and taking advantage of shock of remaining opponents he rushed towards archer and before he could even react klaus destroyed his bow with sword

"THUNDER SHOCK"

with shock archer fell unconscious on ground now there were only two opponents remained for klaus.

On the other hand Reus took advantage of surprised opponents and defeated them, same was for Sam and Anna,

Sam's opponent's mana got depleted while anna took advantage when her opponent was distracted because of sudden cold

Now attention of whole audience was on klaus and klaus himself was indifferent and with serious face he took out another sword and rushed towards both his opponents and till now both swordsman had composed themselves

"TWIN MYTHS SWORDSMANSHIP TECHNIQUE___2ND FORM BLUE THUNDER"

And like the battle he fought with the cultist his swords on left side gave blue colour while on right dark violet colour and instead of dragon, Violet chinese dragon and Ice Phoenix Phantom appeared and he moved in zig zag movement and his swords leaving after images of blue and purple colour and then his both opponents fell on ground unconscious...

Referee was too stunned to say anything and after coming to his senses he announced

"Match Ends!"

Audience was also shocked because not one but two tier 8 techniques and tier 7 magic was used just in some seconds and the proficiency was high for both techniques and magic and then audience roared

"WOAAAAHAHHH!!"

"Now then the duel has ended so the students of team representing the Empire are Klaus de Whiteblood, Reus Ragnar, Sam Ridens, Anna Broadens, Arina Grande, Robbie Bryans and Brian Clark" with commentator's announcement the selection tournament came to end.

Next day at Stevens Mansion...

Klaus was sitting next to Bucky under the shade of tree and was writing some complicated notes and drawing some artifact looking things, his maid was also standing near the tree with admiring face.

Suddenly klaus asked "Ashia do you know about black market of Capital? "

Hearing sudden question Ashia didn't lost her composure and said in polite tone "Yes young master! It's located near merchant guild and is particularly safe place if you have money. They deal with all kind of product no matter what it is"

Klaus then said with calm face "Get ready ! We will be visiting that place. I think I found the thing I was searching for"

Ashia's figure momentary blurred in front of klaus and all knights appeared in front of klaus, klaus was now used to such things and said "Guys prepare a disguise and cover your faces we will be going to black market today, Ashia and Ain will be with me rest of you keep distance and look out for suspicious guys"

All of them nodded and after some preparations all left with simple cloaks used by merchants and adventurers. After about half hour, klaus with Ashia and Ain was in front of a black alley which led to black market.

After going inside, they were in front of a bright building which was perfectly covered from all sides and klaus entered with Ain and Ashia

"Well hello there! What can I do for you ?" klaus was greeted by a old looking guy in business suit. As klaus was disguised in cloak and with help of illusion magic he looked like a 20 year old boy it wasn't suspicious

"We are looking for a earrings"

Old men didn't asked anymore and he escorted them into a room and left. The room was filled with different kinds of ornaments and there was one fat man with smiley face stood there.

"Hello good sir! What do you need ? You can look here you may find some treasure" Fat man said and pointed at ornaments

Klaus just nodded and ordered system in his thought 'Analyse all ornaments'

[COMMAND RECEIVED!]

[ANALYSING...]

[FOUND THE THING HOST WAS LOOKING FOR!]

As system said that klaus smirked and moved toward a black earring with golden outlines and said while picking it up "How much is this for?"

"25 gold coins"

Ain threw a pouch filled with coins, fat man catched the pack and said "Thank you for your purchase"

Klaus left and thought 'Trade was so easy if it was Reus I'm sure he would have created a scene but whatever, I have got my hands on one of three treasures Reus got one of treasures from a dungeon after 5 years, and I got this thing right here in black market for only 25 gold coins, I bet he will cough blood if he knew about it. Now I'm fully prepared for the tournament'

Klaus took out the earrings and equipped it in his ears and then

[DOES HOST WISH TO BIND WITH THE TREASURE?]

[Y/N?]

"Yes" after replying klaus felt energy leaving his body and then a sudden feeling of divinity got mixed in his body and soul

"It's really same as it was shown in drama, I think mine fire power has increased directly by a tier! hahaha!"
