The Mysterious Black Magician

Yman was watching the match attentively. Currently, he is alone. Though, he felt some piercing gazes from his side. He didn't need to guess from whom it was from. There's only one person currently in there besides him. It's no other than Kiko.

"..."

Regardless, there was only silence in the waiting room at the moment. Although he didn't mind Kiko's presence, it was still awkward that only he and Kiko were left inside. Probably because of those strong hate aura that Kiko was sending to him.

Yman just laughed inwardly. There's no need to be so heated since there are only a few of them left in this competition. It's better to enjoy the current match.

It was better if Maena was here so that he has someone to converse with while watching this exciting match. However, Maena was... well, she was being treated by the medics. Using the Perfect Breathing Technique might have a toll on her body. They would be deciding if she could still fight for her next match or not. 

He also can't disturb Sistela because she is currently in hibernation mode. Yman didn't waste the opportunity to let her rest. Especially since he doesn't know when the people with malicious intent will attack Rea. He still has to do his job as Rea's bodyguard.

At that moment, "Yoohoo!" Yman felt a slight tug on his shoulder. Along with it was a familiar voice. Instinctively, he glanced to where he thought the voice came from. And in that instance, he gawked for a second.

"M-Miss Ice?!" He called out, a little bit surprised. He was surprised that he failed to notice her presence. Miss Ice was truly a mysterious person. Yman could not fathom her strength.

"Fufu," she giggled from his reaction. "Congratulations for reaching this round," she said while smiling.

"Haha, thanks. I am just lucky to win all my matches," Yman remained humble with his reply.

"Hehe!" Ice chuckled. "No need to be so humble, you know," she reminded him.

Kiko narrowed his eyes. He didn't expect Ice to show up here. And never expected that these two looked so close the way they converse. He frowned. Then he casually approached them. "Miss Ace…" he called her. Yman and Ice looked at him at the same time.

Yman didn't expect Kiko to approach them. He wondered what Kiko was planning. But, perhaps just to greet Ice. After all, Ice is the Ace of the academy. Everyone for sure knew her and wanted to build a good connection with her.

"Oh, Kiko Sun, congratulations as well for entering the final," without wiping her smile, she replied to Kiko.

"Well, it's no big deal," the way Kiko replied seemed like he was telling them that it was only natural for him to enter the final.

Just then, Ice remembered something. It was about Almina's feelings. She secretly grinned.

Almina and Rei-Rei already reached the climax of their match. Each one of them executed their skills skillfully. It even got to the point where Almina and Rei-Rei had to use their ultimate technique.

In Almina's case, she used the same technique as Maena. And in Rei-Rei's case, she used a technique she called Perfect All-Rounder.

Yman did not know what the effect would be. But when he looked closely at their fight, he noticed that Rei-Rei was able to combine the two professions. Like now, she uses a sword in one hand while gloves with a strange orb on the other. In this situation, Yman can say that Rei-Rei is an absolute magic swordsman. While she was confronting Almina's swordsmanship with her own learned sword art, she also used spells that only people proficient in casting spells could invoke.

Like Almina when she activated her Perfect Breathing Technique, there is also a noticeable strange aura surrounding her body. But, in Rei-Rei's situation, Yman believes those are not mana from the surroundings. But it was only a result of her skill called Perfect All-Rounder.

"Of all the matches I've witnessed in this competition, this is probably the match that I can say is the most unique," Ice suddenly commented.

The two looked at her. "Is it because of the strength of the two?" Yman asked.

Ice shook her head slightly. "It's not only because of that. Certainly, both have talent and both are gifted with an abundance of mana. What differentiates this match from other matches, is that the two players have totally opposite styles. Almina is no doubt focused on her style as a swordswoman. On the other hand, her opponent is an all-rounder. The result of this fight can change the mindset of some people with style like them," explained Ice.

"I-I see…" Yman slightly nodded his head.

WAAAM! BOOM!

At that moment, the whole park seemed to shake when the two met again in the air. A deafening collision from their weapons ensued. The two retreated at the same time. Then they unleashed powerful attacks at the same time as well.

Rei-Rei threw a big ball mixed with different elements at Almina. She called it the Giant Elemental Sphere. Just by looking at it, everyone could say without a doubt that it was very strong and could cause a lot of damage to Almina if it hits her.

Almina's eyes narrowed as she lifted the two elemental swords. Once the Giant Elemental Sphere entered her range, she struck the two swords at the same time. A big bright 'X' appeared in the air where she swung her swords. The bright X continued until it collided with Rei-Rei's Giant Elemental Sphere.

BOOM!

Once again, there was a deafening eruption in the air. And again, it looked like a volcano had erupted due to the thick smoke that came out following the eruption. The spectators shouted in extreme excitement. The fight they were witnessing at this moment was comparable or might be better than the fight of Kiko and Brai.

There is no doubt that these two girls are the best female students in the HCZ7 academy. This is currently on the minds of many students from other academies who are currently watching the competition live through their monitors.

As everyone was watching, in the waiting room, "By the way, who do you think will win this match?" Ice suddenly asked the two people with her.

"Of course, it's Almina!" Kiko answered right away while Yman remained nonchalant with his eyes fixed on the monitor.
