=== Author's Note ===
This and probably Chapter 37 and 38 will be chapters more focused on this competition and the development of main characters like Mayara, Kassia, Annie, Tazla, Renner, Sahari, Li Chun, Li Chow and Zhuge Rayli.
And after this small story arc, there will be a small ending for the classes, where there will be a small time skip until the "Main Events" of the work and that will be when things will move forward and new characters will be introduced.
I hope for your patience and that you like what will come!
–––––––––––––––
PART 1 – Proposal!
–––––––––––––––
Marley Hephaestus had her party days later, but I obviously didn't go!
His father used the favor that Renner's father owed him, so I'm not obligated to do anything.
At most, Marley's father owed Renner's father a favor, but... I'm not obligated to do that and Renner wouldn't insist, because just saying that I didn't like Marley, something that really happened, his father wouldn't dare to force me to such a thing.
With that, Marley's party was a fiasco, less than half of the guests showed up.
But useless things aside, I went to see Pericles.
…
"Roxana, to what do I owe your visit?" - Pericles as always smiling at me.
"It's next week's annual competition, it's sure to be a huge event!" - I say smiling and he agrees, his mood must be at the highest of his life or compared to such.
"But I don't think it would be good for me to participate, the difference between me and the other students… there is no comparison!" - I say and he is quiet.
"Indeed, you are a thorn in this event, not that it's bad, just that… your presence makes the winners obvious." - Said Pericles sighing, he knows I don't like very cordial conversations and I see him as a kind of friend or even a close uncle.
"So I wanted to propose something for the class competition." - I smile and he gets curious.
"Of course, speak!"
"As I advanced my heritage, I got stronger and had many benefits, among them, I developed a kind of natural magical protection, I believe you can see it or even feel it." - I say.
"Yes, it's invisible, but… can I?" - He asked and I nodded, then a magic missile molded itself in moments and hit me, but it fell apart and… about 10 Points of fake HP was lost, it's my protection that came from [Divine Body].
"I know it will be boring for everyone if I enter the battlefield, as I could literally fly through the skies, reach for the flag, wipe out everyone and win!" - I say and he nods.
"So what I propose is simple, I will not do anything, but I will be the target, all 2nd year students, must attack me, they will form teams to hunt me down and I will not hide my presence, nor will I use any magic item. The goal will be that they must reduce my vitality by at least 1 point, like those numbers on those bracelets, which makes it look like a game." - I say my idea and Pericles thinks.
"Indeed, it is a great proposal, but what will be its limitations?" - He asks.
"Simple, everyone should have a device that will let them know my location, I'll be in constant motion, which will make it easy for them to try to ambush me and stuff like that, I naturally won't be able to attack them, I won't use defensive techniques either, so if If an attack were to hit me, I would meet it head on, I would not wear any equipment, weapons or armor, just my standard school uniform with no magical properties." - I say smiling.
"I understand, but how high is the durability of this barrier?" - He asked and I just give a slight smile. - "Say your attack just now didn't deal with even 1% of it."
"Well, it was basic and weakened magic, it wasn't intended, but I understand, this will be a huge learning opportunity for the students, as well as for you!" - He said and I smile.
"Yes, I thought it would be fun to play tag while being targeted by spells and swords, I would also love to tease everyone and destroy their plans!" - I laugh.
"… I feel like I might regret it, but… your gang will be there too!" - He said.
"Besides my girls, I think most will be more than happy to slaughter me, especially a certain little girl who skipped 1st grade, that one wants to fuck me a thousand different ways and still chew my heart out, but I'm not going to favor anyone. , it will actually be fun to see how much my girls have grown." - I smile.
"Okay, I'll talk to the board, we'll have a meeting later, I'll text you!" - He said and I nodded.

PART 2 – Families!
–––––––––––––––
Days went by and then families began to visit their children, Hotels were full and many important figures came to see this competition in person.
Roxana was invited to many things, but she had to go carefully, where she first went to meet Mayara's parents.
Sasha Florvan, with her vibrant, sharp blue eyes and long, wavy brown hair, came up to Roxana and Mayara, accompanied by a stern-faced man.
[Image] →
A bearded man with a large physique, but the notable thing about him wouldn't be his physical strength, but the obvious magical vibe of him.
"It's nice to finally meet you, you are a difficult young lady to talk to!" - Said Simun Florvan laughing lightly.
"It is an honor to meet you, father-in-law!" - Said Roxana smiling.
Simun looked at her, then said. - "Really a great girl, I didn't expect that the one who would make me most proud of my children would be Mayara!"
"Like this?" Roxana frowned.
"Don't get me wrong, I love Mayara, she is my daughter, having a great magical talent and was always a genius, I'm proud of her for that, but she was never the outstanding type of girl and also caused a lot of problems, but since she met you, well… I admit I looked down on you quite a bit, but then so much happened." - Simun laughed, Roxana was quiet, then said. - "I did not like you!"
"…simple and straightforward, I respect that, but that's how things work in the adult world – children, you'll understand as soon as you leave school and have to make the hard choices! Know that you will have the support of the Florvan Family, I hope you don't let your personal feelings get in the way of your future, because if that's the case, you disappoint me, Roxana Keller!" - Simun said laughing and soon leaving with Sasha, who said almost nothing, but on the way out she said.
"We have prepared a reservation at a restaurant, I will send you the information, come!" - She said.
Roxana looked at her, then at Mayara. - "Your father is a turd!"
"…" - Mayara was quiet.
"Their mother isn't much different either, they are a great statement not to follow when we have our kids!" - Roxana said smiling and hugging Mayara.
"You are an asshole!" - Mayara said punching her lightly.
"I'm the asshole you love!" Roxana laughed and kissed her neck.
…
After that, Roxana had to meet with Sahari's parents, her father as usual, someone very loving, making stupid jokes and stuff, asking if she needed anything and so on.
In recent months, the Holkarti Family has been profiting greatly from its close connections with Miliam Gastru.
…
After meeting Sahari's parents, much to the shock of Roxana and Annie, her parents came!
The first being a tall man with black hair and light brown eyes, a short and beautiful beard, a manly man who appears to be in his 40s.
[Image] →
His name is Maxwell Forgier, a renowned knight, he seems unnaturally kind, far from what Roxana expected.
"Daughter!" - Said Maxwell quite calmly, Annie looked at him with indifference.
"Still angry?" - Asked an apparently young woman and well made up, with beautiful curves, silver hair and green eyes.
[Image] →
Her name is Vanessa Estropa, Annie's stepmother and Maxwell's main wife.
"What did you come here for?" - Asked Annie crossing her arms.
"Naturally we came to watch you perform in the competition, to meet your wife who didn't bother to introduce you to the family!" - Vanessa said in a sharp tone.
"There is nothing to show! Where is that woman, not even decided to show her face?" - Annie snorted.
"Your mother was in a lot of trouble, she couldn't come." - Maxwell said calmly.
Annie laughed and nodded.
"Anyway, do whatever you want, I need to get ready, come on Rox!" - Said Annie.
"Ill-mannered girl, show proper respect to your family!" Vanessa snarled with sharp eyes.
"Family? The only one I see as family is big sister Jolyn, the rest… is the rest!" - Annie said fiercely.
"What?!" - Vanessa shouted furiously and Roxana advanced.
"You abandoned her, you have no say in her decisions!" - Roxana said coldly.
Maxwell finally taking some action. - "This is a family matter!"
"Annie is my family!" - Roxana said without caring, even if Maxwell is strong, both know who is stronger.
Vanessa stayed quiet, knowing that teasing Roxana is not wise at all.
"Come on, don't waste any more time with them!" - Said Annie.
Maxwell looked at this and said. - "I know that I was wrong as a father with you, I was harsh and neglected your dreams."
Annie stopped hearing this.
"I regret many things I did as a father, the pressure I put on my children, the way I treated her, as well as what I did to Jolyn, but… there was nothing you could do about your previous state, it was impossible for you to to recover!" Maxwell said.
"I look great, what's the excuse?" - Annie laughed coldly.
"Brain death! Jolyn must not have told them, but all the doctors, surgeons, clerics and priests we hired all said the same thing, even the Pope's Magic wouldn't be able to cure her, just an Elixir, but... it's impossible for our family get your hands on something like that." - Said Maxwell, Roxana and Annie were quiet, because in fact, they didn't know.
"Anyway, Jolyn as a sister, didn't abandon her like you did!" - Said Roxane.
"…in fact, I regret giving up so easily… I just wanted to say sorry and we're on our way, I'll see your results on TV… I'm happy for your happiness and proud that you followed your dreams!" -Said Maxwell, which amazed Vanessa that she didn't expect that.
Soon the two left, Annie was wide-eyed, shuddering, before Roxana hugged her, she started to cry, showing how much Maxwell's apologies and words affected her.
…
"Let go of me you fools! I want to see my daughters!" - Shouted a beautiful Goblin woman on the shoulders of a tall and muscular man.
"Sorry ma'am, but we were hired to stop you from entering Academis Luminous." - Said one of the men.
"Fuck off! You bastards, I will burn you alive!" -She screamed furiously, but unable to conjure her magic.
"Love! Save me! HELP!!!" - She screamed hysterically, a nearby Goblin man looked away.
And at that same moment, Juju and Tazla were looking at this commotion from afar.
"Sister… this is the best action, right?" Tazla asked.
"Yes, Mama can never reach Roxana!" - Juju said.
"I know… but sooner or later it will happen, wouldn't it be better to just let them get it over with and normalize?" Tazla asked hesitantly.
"You fool, you really don't understand… we Goblins have potent sexual instincts and are attracted to strong ones, we aren't as affected by being close to Roxana and receiving her love constantly, but our mother… her mates were mostly Ranks. F to C, if she has a relationship with Roxana, she will be just like me, addicting and loving that huge piece of meat, our parents' marriage would end and… you know how crazy mom is…" - Juju said worriedly.
Tazla was quiet and worried.
(Author: The families of the Harem members are a selfish, cruel, greedy bunch of bastards... well, they're nobles from a world of sex and Roxana literally stole their daughters so... meh!)
–––––––––––––––
PART 3 – Entrance Show!
–––––––––––––––
On the big day, the stage is set up and thousands of people are watching.
There was Pericles, in wizard's robes, smiling as he activated a magical voice-amplifying device.
[Image] → (Finally he's getting an illustration)
"Good morning everyone, I'm Pericles Graham, director of Luminous and today marks a renewal of the Annual Competition, the first since the Academy's restart, this time being sponsored by many good people and with the participation of talents from all over the world, such as director and educator, it is a great honor and pride to be in this position!" - Pericles said with a kind and proud smile.
"I promise you that this year and those to come, we will have huge surprises from our talented students!"
"And just like last year, we have prepared a Music Show for everyone, lyrics and music by our brilliant students, Annie Forgier and Roxana Keller!" - He raised his voice, pointing and the two went upstairs.
Pericles was smiling and going on with a long speech about dreams and aspirations and that sort of thing.
And soon it was time, the instruments being installed and together, there were other people on stage accompanying Roxana and Annie, members of the band.
"Hello everyone, today we will play the song [Bones], a new song, made for this competition and different from last year, this one will be more upbeat, I hope no one will cry!" - Roxana said laughing lightly.
Slowly the instruments started to play and Roxana took the microphone, today she would be the focus, Annie would only accompany her to make small sound effects.
{Imagine Dragons, Bones}
[Gimme, gimme, gimme some time to think
I'm in the bathroom, looking at me
Face in the mirror is all I need (ooh)
Wait until the reaper takes my life
Never gonna get me out alive
I will live a thousand million lives (ooh)
My patience is waning
Is this entertaining?
Our patience is waning
Is this entertaining?
I-I-I got this feeling, yeah, you know
Where I'm losing all control
'Cause there's magic in my bones
I-I-I got this feeling in my soul
Go ahead and throw your stones
'Cause there's magic in my bones
Playing with a stick of dynamite
There was never gray in black and white
There was never wrong 'til there was right (ooh, oh)
Feeling like a boulder hurtling
Seeing all the vultures circling
Burning in the flames I'm working in
Turning in a bed that's darkening
My patience is waning
Is this entertaining?
Our patience is waning
Is this entertaining?
…]
(Author: I love this song, but searching for female Covers of it, I didn't find any good enough, which makes me believe that Imagine Dragons is hardly good being sung by women, but I like the song and that's it!)
(Note: I'm not saying the Covers are bad, many of the women I've encountered have beautiful voices, it's just that the feel is leagues away from the original!)
The crowd got excited pretty quickly with the opening song, with Roxana jumping up and down and enjoying the excitement of the young people.
Turns out she and Annie have a lot of fans, the virtually free publicity has done a huge job of that.
As such, she knew that [Bones], like on Earth, will be one of those songs that gets played over and over again.
The song was short, less than 3 minutes, but when it was finished, applause rained down on the band, Roxana excitedly hugging Annie as they thanked the audience.
And with that, the competition had officially begun!
–––––––––––––––
PART 4 – Team Battles (4x4)!
–––––––––––––––
Led by Mayara, we have Tazla, Kassia and Li Chun.
The 4 of them formed a team for the 4x4 Team Battles, as for Li Chow, she wasn't very good at teamwork with others other than her sister.
Not to mention she hardly listens to instructions from others, a bad teammate to say the least.
But as each student can participate in 2 categories, Li Chun is in the 4x4 and 2x2 battles, and in the 2x2 she is partnering with her sister.
As for Li Chow, she is in the tag team battles, as well as the 2nd year singles tournament.
...
Team Mayara vs. Team Li Yinuo!
"And we started with huge bad luck!" - Said Li Chun growling.
"If that were the case, I wish I'd stayed on the team, just so I could bust that bitch's ass!" - growled Li Chow fiercely.
Roxana looked at this and said. - "Do your best, I know you'll take care of those arrogant Asians!"
"I am Asian!" - Said Li Chun.
"Bitch!" - cursed Li Chow and spitting.
"That's right..." - Said Roxana scratching her chin and smiling.
...
The Arena that Roxana and Rayli faced would be the place for team battles, which was modified, walls were raised and many obstacles were added.
The two teams rose on opposite sides, without any magical accessories, just their magical school uniforms and rare Level 20 weapons.
This was one of the rules implemented, many times the fights were decided by money instead of just skills, since those who were at the top of the school were children of the nobility, who had all kinds of powerful magical accessories.
And now with descendants of such renowned families, it goes without saying that the Legendary Accessories in their poses would not give opportunities to those from weaker families.
Therefore, if you were only confident in your superior equipment, you will lose!
…
"Li Yinuo is arrogant, but she is not stupid, she will probably use Spear Formation!" - Said Li Chun.
"… stop speaking Greek!" - Maya said.
"A cross-shaped formation practically, since there are only 4 individuals, with Li Yinuo in front, the strongest, it will serve to destabilize our front line and draw our attention, then the 2 sides will come to engage us, at last the last will come, to support the tip and thus take one of us from the beginning." - Said Li Chun.
"I don't understand very well, but I understand, but why are you sure she will use this formation?" - Maya asked.
"Li Yinuo was trained in the same way as me and Li Chow, we were taught various combat strategies and methods to manage teams, the most efficient way to deal with our enemies and use the strength of our allies! The Spear Formation is very efficient against weak enemies, Li Yinuo is arrogant enough to think that we are all weak and will ignore the risks of the formation." - Said Li Chun.
"What are the risks?" - Asked Cassie.
"The Spear Formation is efficient against weak enemies, as the strongest is in the front and destabilizes the enemies, it serves to make everyone focus on the spearhead, giving openings for those on the side to attack, it was well used in armies in the past. But this formation has a huge weakness, which is its edge!" - Li Chun smiled with sharp eyes. - "The reason it is effective against weaklings, is that they would be unable to resist the tip of the spear, but if we have someone strong, or able to hold off Li Yinuo, their formation will be a disaster!"
"But Li Yinuo is very strong and so are his teammates!" - Said Kassia frowning.
"I can reverse this!" - Said Tazla full of confidence and with her nose in the air.
"I would get to it, Tazla has great Buff skills, this will close a lot of the gap, but unlike my people, mine trains in Martial Arts since childhood and we have a wide variety of techniques, as well as we rely little on Magic Items." - Said Li Chun.
"But besides Tazla, Mayara, I have some questions for you!"
…
Li Yinuo was advancing with his group and as Li Chun had predicted, she didn't take Mayara's group seriously, a trash she called her cousin, a despicable Goblin, a commoner with nothing remarkable or accomplished for herself, and finally, a Maga who abandoned her family because of a woman!
If it were just her discretion, she wouldn't even think about anything and alone would end them all, but her allies need notes and she knows that it's not good to underestimate her opponents that much, because even mosquito bites hurt.
But the focus of her deciding to take this seriously is that she still has her mission to get closer to Roxana, as such, she wants to crush her women, make her understand that having this trash around won't help her at all!
So she decided on the Spear Formation, in addition to showing more of her capabilities, it will allow others to shine a little.
…
Slowly the two groups approached, where they soon felt the presence of the other and accelerated.
It didn't take long in a more open area inside the arena, they spotted each other!
Li Yinuo was smiling, but then he noticed something and slowly both groups were accelerating, ready to collide.
Focusing on her was not Li Chun, but Kassia, much to her surprise.
Using a shield and sword, the young girl had sharp eyes as she covered herself in her Aura.
'Pathetic!' - thought Li Yinuo noticing the opposing team's Spear Formation.
She would even think about it if it was Li Chun in front, but Kassia? She felt like laughing!
But she understood that most likely the group was discarding Kassia, hoping this useless one would hold her for a few seconds.
The target is her team and, finally, her.
Knowing this, Li Yinuo would smile, she would show that that's not how it works!
And with gauntlets as weapons, Li Yinuo burst into speed, charging at Kassia and landing a mighty punch!
BOOM!
An explosion sounded, Kassia contorted her pretty face as she leaned forward with her shield, planting her feet on the ground and using her Aura at full blast!
Li Yinuo's eyes widened, how was she not catapulted away?
BANG!
A rumble came from the shield, Li Yinuo felt a strong blow on her fist, she snarled and backed away, something was strange.
Kassia clenched her teeth, smiled and charged forward, trying to hit Li Yiinuo with her shield, her Aura concentrating on him, great power building up.
Humph!
Snorting with disdain, Li Yinuo charged forward, his palms open and forming a circle, before clashing with Kassia's shield.
BANG!!!
Aaaaahh!!
Kassia screamed as she was thrown back by a powerful impact, Li Yinuo smiling, but at that moment she saw in the corner of her eyes, the following scene.
Li Chun clashed with a young man to her right, he wielded a straight and thin sword, fiercely thrusting it towards Li Chun without hesitation, the disdain obvious in her eyes.
But Li Chun would not back down, going head-on with the sword, the young man would not stop, in fact he who laughs, if he manages to kill this traitor, he will be glorified in his house, he doesn't mind being expelled!
But then her arm didn't move forward as she wanted, a huge weight, along with the sound of chains, to look at.
"Hitting a lady is not something a man should do young man!" -Squiti had his sword stuck in the ground, the same having the height of a Goblin, he smiled while being held by his sword, there are magical chains involving his arm.
The young man was shocked and confused, Li Chun took advantage, closing the distance, ducking and turning to the side, before hitting the left of his ribs with a Ki-charged elbow.
The youth's eyes widened in pain, his body being sent backwards, but then pulled back by the chain that Squiti grabbed, even with such a small body, he was unnaturally powerful!
Li Chun jumped up, appearing above the young man and then hit his face with both feet, burying his head in the ground, the young man was still before he disappeared as he was teleported away.
Li Yinuo snarled angrily, Li Chun looked at her, smiling, before sprinting towards her.
As for Squiti, he went to the last member of the Formation of the Spear, a short and sharp-eyed young woman.
"Sorry young lady, but you will not pass me!" - Said Squiti positioning himself and drawing his long sword.
The young woman looked down, Squiti is even smaller than her. - "You are very cute, but I will kill you!"
"What a rude young man, didn't your parents teach you respect?" - Squiti nodded and the young woman advanced, her weapon being a long and resistant ribbon, strengthened by her Ki.
Squiti had sharp eyes, attacking and his sword being stopped, before one of the ends lunged towards him, looking so sharp.
Moments before reaching his body, he showed impressive flexibility as he left the ground and then kicked his head, but one of the pieces of cloth stopped his attack.
The young woman had cold eyes, soon Squiti noticed that the cloth was longer than he thought, started to go around him and he would be unable to escape.
But he smiled, attacking with his sword and trying to stab it, but it was parried, the fabric was closing in on him and at that moment, his furry tail passed in the face of the young woman who did not expect it, her vision being covered.
Squiti took the opportunity to open her mouth, a mass of energy molding itself and when the young woman regained her sight, Squiti was ready to finish her off.
It was at that moment that a hand advanced, grabbing the back of Squiti's neck, pulling him and throwing him against the ground.
Squiti was confused, but quickly fired the mass of energy, a powerful magic laser at Li Yinuo who had appeared so suddenly.
Moments before!
Li Chun charged at Li Yinuo, jumping and kicking, but Li Yinuo met his attack, grabbing his leg, his hand slid down his thigh, the other leg came out, Li Yinuo threw himself backwards, his legs shot up and soon hit his back. from Li Chun!
Li Chun snarled, but he spun in the air and his foot went towards Li Yinuo's abdomen, but Li Yinuo joined her open palms, her Ki spread out and soon a powerful wind rushed forward, pushing Li Chun upwards, losing her control and impetus.
Taking advantage, Li Yinuo got up, with an erratic movement of his feet, she disappeared, Li Chun growled, looking for her and soon saw her advance where Squiti was.
Quickly she directed her fall and charged forward, that's when Li Yinuo suddenly disappeared, going up in smoke and soon Li Chun felt something on the side, he turned around to defend himself.
"Too slow, Li Chow is more attentive!" -Said Li Yinuo mockingly, then Li Chun felt a powerful blow hit her back, understanding that Li Yinuo used his Ki to deceive her senses while his true self hid his presence from her.
She doesn't believe she fell for it.
Ignoring her, Li Yinuo charged towards Squiti, a disdainful look before grabbing and throwing him.
Her laser came towards her, but Li Yinuo easily dodged it, before kicking Squiti away and then charging at Li Chun.
"Take care of the mouse!" - Li Yinuo shouted without looking back.
Moments before!
Tazla and Mayara dealt with a tall and muscular young man, where Mayara faced him, shooting constant spells at him, while chains held his body, which were conjured by Tazla.
"USELESS TRICKS!!!" - Roared the young man fiercely, his Ki exploding and his muscles growing.
He slashed through the chains, going against Mayara, but soon realized that she had stepped the wrong way, her body slipped, he failed to keep his balance and when his head tilted back.
{Fire Hammer}
A huge flaming hammer was above him, which came down fiercely, crushing him!
BOOM!!
A fierce explosion sounded along with the young man's scream, but in the next moment, the young man stepped out of the flames, advancing towards Mayara.
Mayara's eyes widened, quickly casting a Magic Shield of Flames.
"USELESS!!!" - Roared the young man, shooting a fierce punch that easily dispersed the shield.
Mayara's eyes widened, the punch coming towards her, she couldn't react.
{Mana Shield}
At that moment a shield was molded and…
BANG!!
A fierce crash sounded, the young martial artist's momentum being forced to stop.
Tazla bit her lip, opening her arms and throwing bones, dust and other magical items.
{Totem of Weakness}
Soon a totem was molded from the materials Tazla threw, the target being the young man, but… he advanced, the already damaged shield fell apart and his fist hit Mayara who couldn't react in time.
Mayara was thrown away, Tazla screamed and went to catch her.
"No matter what they do, it's useless against me!" - Said the young man fiercely approaching.
Mayara and Tazla understood, then they threw something on their bracelets and disappeared, they admitted defeat.
Squiti having serious problems with the young woman, was soon teleported too. - "Too bad, we will have another chance in the future!"
Li Chun with blood running down his lips and several bruises on his body, snarled at Li Yinuo laughing.
"Was this your plan? A useless commoner who arrived too late, 2 mages who couldn't last even 2 minutes, and you, a useless one?" - Li Yinuo spat on the ground full of disdain.
Kassia faced the man who forced Mayara and Tazla to flee, it took her a while to recover, she is ashamed of that, but in the end, she too was defeated.
"I didn't plan correctly, I still don't know much about the Magic of the West." - Li Chun said coldly.
"Just cheap tricks!" - Said Li Yinuo laughing with disdain.
"But that work!" - Said Li Chun, activating the device on his wrist. - "Next time, it won't be so easy!"
"I agree, it will be extremely easy!" - Li Yinuo laughed, but internally she was furious.
–––––––––––––––
PART 5 – Result!
–––––––––––––––
"Sorry!" - Kassia lowered her head bowing, she clenched her fists.
"Don't worry, it wasn't your fault." - Said Li Chun.
"Yes it was! I lay down for a long time after I was thrown, if not for that, I could have prevented Tazla and Mayara from surrendering, so we could have won!" Kassia was shaking with frustration.
"She hit you with a technique called [Disconcerting Impact], she infused her Ki into the attack, which caused chaos in her Aura, which made her unable to stand up… it's not your fault, I just didn't calculate this variable!" - Li Chun said calmly.
"That's right Kassia, stop blaming yourself, I believe that even if you had helped, we would still have lost, since Li Yinuo just played with us, she is much stronger than we thought!" - Mayara said, which made Li Chun clench his teeth.
In fact, when Li Yinuo analyzed the match and saw that she would be the winner, she simply decided to take it easy and play with Li Chun, hitting in places to hurt.
Li Chun wasn't her opponent, even with Tazla's Buffs, which unfortunately were undone as soon as she teleported.
When that happened, there were no more chances for Li Chun.
"Kassia, don't blame yourself, you fought well!" -Tazla came to comfort her, but she wouldn't be much help.
"What an amazing fight, too bad your gap was so high!" - Roxana's excited voice rang out and soon Kassia found herself wrapped in a hug.
"Kassia, you were excellent, having withstood Li Yinuo's explosion, that was perfect, it's a shame they didn't foresee the outage that Ki causes your Mana, I know that well, it's hell!" - Roxana said laughing and stroking her head.
"I didn't do much…" - Kassia said with her head down.
"If it weren't for you, they would never have defeated one of the enemies, which allowed them to hold out a lot even with such obvious differences!" -Said Roxana smiling and then went to console the others, just as she gave them potions to recover.
Kassia still blamed herself, but seeing everyone's concern, she knew it was better to put it aside and use this situation to improve herself!
(Author: One thing to say about my note at the beginning of the chapter… I lied!)
BOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM!!!!
A colossal explosion came from the skies, shocking and frightening everyone, when they looked up they saw that the sky was cracking and being painted purple and green!
Roxana widened her eyes, tensing as the surrounding Mana raged and steadily increased.
Confused screams came, Roxana quickly ran after the other girls with all following her.
At that moment she received a message.
[Hello players, having fun with your new lives? Well, the protection is over and it's time for the Main Story to begin!]
[Chapter 1 – A New World!]
[Act 1 – Invasion of the Abyss!]
It seems that Roxana's plans and the others cannot be carried out anytime soon, as gigantic meteors begin to fall and explode, spreading across the globe.
Playtime is over kids!
