Parallel Memory

Chapter 463 Frozen Beauty Strikes

"Elenia, you are back! So, what are your thoughts?"

King Tranduil asked.

Actually, he was also surprised by Sylvia but knew it was for better. It was even better since his daughter was the one fighting her.

King Tranduil hopes that Elenia understands now why they needed to bring in every geniuses. It was precisely to make geniuses like Sylvia stronger.

At the moment, Elenia was stronger but who knows for how much longer. Humans get stronger faster than Elves and based on Sylvia's strength, Rank-SS might not be her limit.

"..."

Elenia thought of her battle with Sylvia. Although she had won but was Sylvia as insignificant as she initially thought.

"Okay, Okay, I'll admit that I was wrong. They don't seem as useless as I said. Even so, I am sure that nobody is stronger than me!"

Princess Elenia said confidently. Although she realized the potential of other people, she still held the belief that no geniuses could defeat her.

King Tranduil smiled. Although Elenia was still a bit arrogant but he felt that it was a progress. Anyway, it was only one battle, maybe after battling more geniuses, he thought that Elenia might mature and understand the situation.

At least, he did! Although he was doing what Elara has said to prevent the disaster on this world, he was still skeptical about the method.

Even if they want to work together to save the world, would other races agree? Would those arrogant humans really have the resolve to save the world?

But after seeing Sylvia and her determination, King Tranduil worries were almost all erased. He felt more confident in the plan that Elara devised.

"Is Sylvia alright?"

Saintess Amelia asked Zero. Both of them had become very close friends and she seemed worried about Sylvia's injuries.

Moreover, she asked Zero because if the injuries were very serious and couldn't be healed by the Elven healer, she was going to go there and heal Sylvia herself.

"No need to worry! Her injuries are not very serious. The healers should have healed all her injuries."

Zero replied. If it was very serious, then he would have already gotten Amelia to come and heal her.

*PHEW!

"That's good!"

Amelia was relieved.

"But Zero, you didn't have to carry Sylvia like that, did you?"

Amelia asked with her eyes staring at Zero with a dead look. Zero shivered when he saw her eyes.

"E-EH?"

He didn't think that he did something wrong. Sylvia has exhausted all her strength and if he didn't carry her, Sylvia would have collapsed there.

Anyways, the contest continued after that thrilling battle between Sylvia and Princess Elenia. Other than Sylvia, there was also one more match between Rank-S and Rank-B.

It seems that the Rank-B fighter got confidence after watching SYlvia's fight and didn't give up, however, almost instantly got destroyed by his opponent.

All kinds of skill could be seen in the arena and every race has their own fighting style. Zero also observed the battle carefully.

It was a good opportunity to witness the fighting style of different races. It was also beneficial for the fight that he will eventually take part in.

"The next fight is between Mia Frostine of the human race and Lucian of the Aasimar race."

Finally it was the turn of Mia who can also be said as the strongest person among the human race.

"I'll be going then!"

Mia gracefully walked down on the stage.

Her opponent also walked in confidently. Her opponent seemed to be at the peak of Rank-A +. And although he is very close to the power of Rank-S, he was still far from being able to achieve victory.

Mia stood at the center of the arena, her icy blue eyes calmly surveying her opponent, Lucian. He exuded an air of confidence, his golden wings shimmering in the sunlight.

The crowd murmured in anticipation, knowing that this battle could be yet another display of the diverse talents and techniques each race possessed. They also believed that the match could have potential to be that of Rank-S vs Rank-S since Lucian was peak Rank-A +.

As Lucian stepped forward, he raised an eyebrow and looked Mia up and down with an appraising smirk. "Well, well, if it isn't the so-called beauty of the human race," he quipped, his tone dripping with arrogance.

Mia's expression remained unfazed.

"I've heard rumors that Aasimars are blessed with celestial grace, but it seems some lack the courtesy that accompanies it," she retorted calmly.

Lucian's grin widened, revealing a hint of his confidence. "Confidence suits you, my dear. It's a shame that your beauty will be marred by defeat."

Whether it is Lucian ignorance or confidence, it seems that he greatly overestimated himself especially considering that his opponent is Mia Frostine.

"Sure! You can try!"

The tension in the arena escalated as they prepared to engage. The two fighters assumed their stances, and the energy in the air became palpable.

"Are you two ready?"

Mia and Lucian gave a nod.

"Then let the battle begin!"

The signal was given, and the battle commenced with breathtaking speed. Lucian lunged forward, his movements graceful and precise. He summoned divine energies that crackled around him, enhancing his attacks.

He summoned his spear with which his speed and strength greatly strengthened. Lucian seemed to be on the border between Rank-A and Rank-S.

Even if it was Rank-S, if they were careless, they might get seriously injured by Lucian's attack.

Mia's eyes remained steady as Lucian closed the distance, his spear poised to strike. His movements were impressive, and his divine energy radiated power, but Mia's composure didn't waver.

At the last moment before Lucian's spear could reach her, Mia's body seemed to blur. She sidestepped with an uncanny swiftness that caught Lucian off guard. Before he could react, Mia was behind him.

Time seemed to slow for Lucian as he realized his vulnerability. In an instant, Mia's hand moved, her fingers lightly brushing against Lucian's back.

In that fleeting touch, a frigid energy surged into Lucian's body, numbing his limbs and freezing his divine energies. It was as if Mia's touch had sapped his strength, leaving him paralyzed.

Lucian's eyes widened in shock as he tried to move, but his body refused to respond. The crowd gasped in disbelief, witnessing the seemingly impossible turn of events.

They were expecting a series of skill and intense fight but Lucian whom many thought was powerful was immediately immobilized by his opponent.

Mia gracefully stepped back, leaving Lucian immobilized on the arena floor. His divine energies faded, and his spear dropped from his hand.

The referee's voice broke the spell that had fallen over the arena.

"Mia Frostine of the human race is the winner!"
