章 321: [Event] [Dolphian Kingdom Under Ruins] [7] Alicia's Scorching Blood

"Could we wrap this up already?" I muttered under my breath.

The trio remaining from our group seemed utterly engrossed in the exam, deploying defensive mana circles to fend off the relentless onslaught from Alicia, Leire, and Martin.

Alicia, in particular, appeared to be holding back. It was unclear whether she was consciously abstaining from relying on her vampiric prowess or simply allowing Leire and Martin to navigate the challenge independently, perhaps as preparation for future rounds.

As for myself, my reluctance to actively engage in the skirmish stemmed from a dual motive. Firstly, I relished the idea of frustrating Alvara and Adrian, who undoubtedly anticipated my participation as a gauge of my abilities. Secondly, I found the current conflict futile. With Leire and Martin effectively supported by Alicia, my involvement seemed superfluous.
