Humanity Return
Ch. 65 – New Generation
A feeling of pleasure appeared and spread throughout Aura's body, making her start jumping around while raising both of her hands and cheering happily.
“Yay!”
A little girl was jumping on the arena, in the middle of a quiet stadium.
That excited feeling only lasted for a few moments until when he realized the surrounding audience was just looking at him without making a sound, making him a little embarrassed from being too excited.
The embarrassment only grew when he realized the real reason for the silence.
“...urk..”
The unconscious Bartolomeo let out a voice of pain, as his body was still under great pressure.
“H-huh?!”
Aura then looked at the 30 fireballs that were still in the air and started swinging his staff and chanting something quickly.
Dzing...
A huge magic circle appeared in front of Aura and started to spin violently, pulling the 30 fireballs in the air into it. As the final fireball entered, the circle began to spin faster for a few moments and disappeared.
“Fiuh..”.
Aura sighed and released her tension.
Seeing that the fight was completely over, the entire audience there cheered simultaneously, greatly surprising Aura.
“...ehehe..”
Who let out a strange sound from his mouth while walking back to his waiting spot with Rufus.
Among those cheering loudly were some people who showed serious faces while looking at the little girl who was walking while blushing in shame.
They realized the identity of the last magic circle used by Aura to eliminate those fireballs.
“Three Layered Magic..”
The one female covered by the black robe looked at Aura while letting out a strange laugh. Around him were teachers who moved away from him after hearing the sound of laughter.
“...”
Isaac who was sitting next to him only turned his head for a moment without saying anything, but his expression showed himself deeply troubled by the sound of the woman's laughter.
...
The atmosphere in the waiting chairs surrounding the arena had been in a very tense state since the start of the tournament that day. Some of the fighters there felt that very clearly because of one thing that became their main problem.
If they lost, their grades as new students would fall.
But if they win, the one waiting for them as the next opponent makes them desperate.
“Hoam...”
“Leinn?”
From the first group was the black-haired youth who was rubbing his wet eyes after yawning several times in a row. He was a Monster with unclear origins who had defeated all of his opponents without showing all of his abilities.
The pink-haired girl beside him also became the new mind materials of the people who thought themselves geniuses for possessing Rank B Contracted Beasts, making their problems even more dizzying.
If the first group had Leinn as their problem, the second group had three people as their problem.
“You look very sleepy, are you okay?”
Aura who showed exceptional ability in her first fight, defeated her opponent without letting him do anything.
He who completed his preparation of magic in the blink of an eye, the ability to cast middle and high level magic in a short time, and a user of Layered Magic in his very young age.
Aura should have been the most talented Magic User among those new disciples, if not for one other person.
“Roland, do you want some?”
The blue-haired girl in the style of a twin tail was seen holding two chocolate biscuits in her hand, looking very innocent.
Of course that didn't change the scene that people saw a while ago, when he danced on the arena with his cane and took out dozens of different ice magic in succession.
Adeline cast dozens of magic in her previous fight, and it happened not because her opponent had high abilities but because Adeline did not give the finishing attack until the last moment.
Almost half of the dozen mid-level magic was either revision magic or its own creation, ending with the combined magic of five mid-late magic that produced high-level ice magic early on, a chunk of iceberg.
“Ya already, more for me”
The girl started eating the two biscuits in her hands, ignoring the blonde youth beside her again.
The young man was none other than that last person, the favorite of everyone there to be the final winner. One of the youngest Rank A Hunters owned by the city of Blazing Sun, the main successor candidate of the Azure Clan, was, the strongest military family this town has and the fiancee of the only daughter of the famous Ice God.
“Dan... Finish!”
Of course the dilemma was long gone, seeing that they had already lost in that first wave of battle, leaving four pairs of fights alone in the arena.
The audience at the stadium saw eight names that had been floundering on the light screen above the arena began to disappear one by one and left four pairs of names that glowed brightly.
“For the second wave fight, it will start to be more special!”
The four pairs of names enter into a circle divided by four, each filled with two names of fighters.
“Their battle recruits will be scrambled and determined by this arrow, and in addition..”.
The arrow in the center of the circle began to rotate and two identical circles appeared next to the circle.
The first circle divides fire, water, earth, and wind.
The second circle divides Humans, Beasts, Beasts, Freedmen.
The three arrows spun quite tightly until when Isaac swung his hand.
“Stop!”
The three arrows started to slow down slowly until they finally stopped in place, showing their results.
The audience there saw Isaac's performance shaking their heads, they were used to seeing their teacher's behavior adding different rules each year.
The first circle stops at the writing ‘Api’.
The second circle stops at ‘Beast’.
And the final circle shows the pair who will fight.
“Hm”
Roland immediately stood up from his seat and walked towards the arena followed by one other young man.
“T-young master Roland, please guide him in this p-farm. T-please b-berries s-I a-ampun”
The man grew even more nervous when he saw the blond young man in front of him just kept walking without caring about it. He is one of the oldest people to enter this year seeing his age of more than 20 years.
He had also seen the abilities possessed by that giant Snake Beast, its unreasonable speed plus its massive body wrapped around its opponent in an instant.
Roland did not even move from where he was in his first fight, and the fight only lasted less than ten seconds.
A tap-Crackle!
Roland immediately kicked the floor of the stadium and jumped up high, very high.
“Hi..!”
He landed on the other side of the arena, shocking the audience at the stadium.
He looked unconcerned and just stood there with a flat expression, looking at his new opponent rising up the arena as well.
The man is seen trying to show a smile on his face, which does not help to hide his feelings of fear
