Chapter 67 – Final Round

Ross was determined to defeat his beautiful opponent.

His beautiful opponent used a Silver Wolf. The wolf had silvery-white fur and was as big as a normal bear. The Silver Wolf had a calm and cold demeanor. All Silver Wolf was like this.

The Silver Wolf was a Tier 5 monster with an ice and silver element. The silver element was nothing special. It was a more specific metal element and was a rare element. Any specific element was rare. Fur and Ball elements that a Furball had were rare too.

Ross's beautiful opponent had white long hair and a slender body. Her skin was white like snow. She looked like someone who loves to cooped up at home.

Even so, from all her matches Ross had seen during the tournament, she did not look like someone who cooped up at home. If she did badly, she would not be able to enter the tournament.

"Silf, attack," the girl commanded her Silver Wolf who she named Silf.

Silf's fang and claw shone and grew longer. The growing fang and claw were in silver color. This was the Silver Wolf common skill, Silver Fang and Silver Claw. All wild Silver Wolf had these two skills.

Nothing special about the two skills. It was the typical physical offensive skill all monsters could have. They were the default skill.

"Grr!" Silf growled and suddenly, she vanished from her position.

"Mande, fly!" Ross immediately gave his order. One thing he was wary of was Silf's speed. A wolf monster would usually have high speed and high attack. Mande had a high attack but his speed was low. So, he was an easy target for the fast Silf.

However, the girl's Silver Wolf's speed was weirdly much faster than a common Silver Wolf. Ross had suspected that Silf had a passive speed skill. Since the skill was passive, it was hard to know what the skill was because it always activated.

Mande opened his wings and flew. Be that as it may, Mande was too slow. Before he could fly high, Silf was behind him. Mande slashed his big blade at Silf but she easily dodged the attack.

Not only that but Silf immediately counter-attacked by swinging her arm and slashed at Mande's body.

Mande had prepared for that counter-attack and blocked with his blade arm. He succeeded but was soon shocked because he was pushed by that attack to the ground.

Mande wanted to get up but Silf was too fast and got on top of him with her jaw opened. She wanted to bite Mande with her Silver Fang skill.

Mande acted fast and slashed his blade at Silf. With her speed, Silf easily avoided the attack. Mande had not yet ended his attack as his other blade arm shone and became longer.

Mande slashed the longer blade at Silf. Even so, Silf was not panicked at all. She jumped and dodged that attack. Mande was tense as all his attacks had failed. He decided to try flying in the air again.

"Mande, fly high, fast!" Ross urged. He knew what would happen next. He had seen the same kind of thing that happened in the earlier battle between the girl and other participants.

Mande flapped his wings and wanted to fly when his legs were stuck on the ground. Not only that but he felt cold in his legs. Mande looked at his legs and saw that they were frozen by ice.

More than that, not only his legs but also the floor of the arena. Everything had turned to ice.

"Ice Land. Good job, Silf," the girl praised her pet. 'Training in this nursery has changed Silf a lot. She can now fight without my command and can strategize by herself too. This nursery is the best one I have ever gone,' thought the girl.

"Silf, let's end this battle," the girl coldly gave her command. Silf heard that and charged forward to end the battle.

However, "Mande! Let's end this battle too! Giga Blade!!!" Ross shouted excitedly.

Mande brought both of his arms together and it combined to form a massive blade with high concentrated energy. All the spectators gasped as they could feel the amount of energy the massive blade had.

The girl was surprised too. 'So, this is the rumored special skill? This clown's pet has it?' She was disappointed. She had thought that it was someone more intelligent but a fool was the one who had it.

Mande wanted to release the Giga Blade but he was too slow. Silf got at the back of Mande and slashed at him with her Silver Claw. With Silf's high attack, Mande was heavily injured and the Giga Blade was dispersed immediately.

"What?!" Ross was stunned.

Mande was still conscious and Silf gave another blow and he fainted immediately. Mande lost.

"Winner! Esther with her beautiful Silver Wolf, Silf!!" Katheryn announced the winner. Esther smiled slightly and turned Silf to a card back.

'This is too easy,' thought Esther. He looked at Ross who was blinking uncontrollably because he did not believe Mande's Giga Blade failed.

'How can he enter the final? Brute strength?' Esther was confused. Her semi-final opponent was much stronger and harder to beat than Ross.

'…' Ross was silent and thought, 'Why am I so stupid in this battle? I should have asked Mande to break through from the ice first. Went defensive and tried to keep the distance between them. Then, can Mande attack with Giga Blade,' Ross was reflecting.

'Why am I this rash? Am I getting cocky because of the special skill?' Ross sighed. He turned Mande to a card and walked out of the arena. He glanced at Esther and smiled bitterly. Esther did not smile back at him, she was still with her cold face.

"Congratulations on your win, Miss Esther," Katheryn congratulated Esther. "In a few minutes, we will have the closing ceremony for the tournament as well as presenting the award to the winners of the tournament," Katheryn announced.

"Also, we will do the Year-End Lucky Draw during the closing ceremony. Don't forget your ticket for the lucky draw. Those without the ticket will not be able to participate in the Lucky Draw. If you do not have the ticket, you can get it at the machine beside the nursery's entrance. It is free. One person can only have one ticket," Katheryn announced.

"Everyone, please wait for a few minutes while we prepare for the closing ceremony," Katheryn bowed respectfully and left the arena.

Many spectators who did not have a ticket went to the nursery's entrance to get a ticket for the Year-End Lucky Draw. The prizes were good and thus, they wanted to try their luck.

Immediately after, the arena's floor was fixed automatically. Then, a massive decorated stage came up from below the arena's floor. Not only that, there were a lot of tables with foods that appeared from below the arena's floor in front of the stage.

Everyone who stayed at the arena saw this scene and marveled at how high tech the nursery was. Ross and Esther were shocked too. What happened was simply unbelievable.

A few minutes later, Katheryn got up on the stage and announced, "We will start the closing ceremony now. Everyone, please enjoy the foods we prepared while watching this closing ceremony," Katheryn smiled.
