Vampire Prince Trapped Into a Hunter

Chapter 52 – FIRST YEAR COMPETITION. 5

“Spirit, Julian! One more step, we will meet in the semifinals.”

I cheered on Julian, who now had his turn up the arena.

“Hmm. Oh? Yes, Arno.”

It was not unusual for him who was slaughterING and showing such a complicated expression on his face as if the weight of the world was entirely on his shoulders.

That gives me a little bad feeling about him.

But apparently, my bad premonition was not something meaningful because Julian was soon able to show his superiority before Alvin Hermes through the power of his magic swords.

Unlike the swordsman who was only able to use sword aura for defense and strengthen the sharpness of his sword alone, a magic swordsman is able to manipulate that aura to produce magic that attacks the opponent in more varied attacks without the need for the sword to touch the opponent's body parts.

In this case, magic Julian Gerfinda wind type.

His attacks were sharp and piercing.

That makes it difficult for Alvin Hermes to get close to Julian because he had to survive the strong winds that form a density at some point resembling a needle that can slash every inch of your skin.

Alvin Hermes was clearly helpless before the absolute might of a magic swords user.

However, as soon as the final assault came, Julian suddenly stopped in the middle.

The arena that was originally boisterous by its strong winds, suddenly turned extremely calm.

Julian seemed to have reacted to nothing.

He just lowered his head trying to hide his so complicated expression in front of the audience.

As a result, Alvin Hermes managed to rise, then immediately turned the position of beating Julian back from the arena.

Victory in the second match in the round of eight was actually achieved by Alvin Hermes.

To be honest, I wanted to be angry at Julian who wasted his chance of winning so easily.

“After I thought, I just had no reason to win and stand out in an unnecessary place, Arno.”

The Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia is a unique country.

In its constitution it is clearly said that all its people can be president, but in fact only certain powerful people can occupy the highest position of the country.

As the family that most have a great chance to reach the highest position of the country is none other than the Gerfinda family which is currently one of the family members serving as a president, Sam Gerfinda.

Not only now, even since it was still called the Indonesian Sultanate, the Gerfinda family has become the top leader of the country that is recognized by every circle.

And for the coming period, they are now preparing Julian's brother, Augusta Gerfinda to occupy the position of presidential candidate.

But in this period of time, the Gerfinda family seems to be having trouble doing it since the position of their family's strength has decreased dramatically to only rank in the top 6 only.

It was all thanks to Augusta Gerfinda's fame as a tyrant.

That's why I can understand what Julian Gerfinda said.

He had absolutely no intention of being haughty or looking down on the spirit of the warriors who were trying to improve their fate through the recognition of the results of this competition.

As he said, Julian Gerfinda just did not want to stand out and instead became a thorn in the flesh in the struggle of his brother occupy the position of the next presidential candidate.

If Julian is too prominent, it is likely that the already very minimal popular vote that the Gerfinda family can gather for the election of Augusta Gerfinda as a presidential candidate will be split again several places to Julian.

Surely Julian could soon realize that he could not possibly have the same opportunity with his brother to be treated special by the family Gerfinda since the origin of his DNA is still always questioned with the existence of his blonde hair that is clearly different from all other Gerfinda breeds that have black hair color.

Knowing that, I could not be angry with him anymore, I was a little sympathetic to the feelings of Julian Gerfinda who was treated alien by his own family members who should give him affection.

However, it was inevitable that I was disappointed in him.

The duel that I had long been waiting for with him, was simply annihilated by him.

***

S8 sequence number owner Jeremy Rudd versus S10 sequence number owner Abel Lundoln.

I hope that this fight will no longer disappoint me since I know the prowess of both of them even though they have not reached the realm of magic swords.

The battle begins with Abel giving off his bright blue aura which is immediately accompanied by an increase in muscle mass.

It was the typical ability of the werewolf race.

Of course Abel had only reached half of it since he was a mixed descendant.

Abel began to attack and then slashed the figure of Jeremy Rudd.

Beyond a doubt, it was just the part of the illusion created by Jeremy Rudd, while his original self immediately attacked Abel's wide-open rear defense once focused on the fake shadow trap resembling his self he had prepared.

Abel was immediately injured, but he used the hardness of his skin due to the thickening of the aura as a shield well.

Jeremy Rudd then chose to once again disappear in a fog of illusion.

However, the sense of hearing of werewolf descent was not something to be taken lightly.

Quickly, Abel was able to track the position of Jeremy Rudd by relying only on his sense of hearing to detect every sound of breath and footsteps issued by Jeremy Rudd.

Quickly, Abel charged into that position even with his eyes closed.

-tracks.

However, Jeremy Rudd did not want to lose and managed to fend off the attack of Abel Lundoln perfectly.

The two balanced-type sword users also fought each other with increasingly fast speeds.

None of them seemed to be willing to give up.

Finally it all comes back to the stamina battle when all the cards each have revealed before his opponent.

It is clear who will be harmed in this.

Abel Lundoln's body strengthening technique could indeed make his body strong for a while through his sword aura.

But when it ended, it would have had a slightly more damaging effect on his muscles to some degree.

Plus Abel who is not used to using the body strengthening style inherited from his werewolf blood, it is, Abel also became unable to respond quickly to a change in situation where his entire body suddenly became an immeasurable tingling.

Jeremy Rudd then finally seized the opportunity to push Abel out of the arena.

Jeremy Rudd came out as the winner in the third game of the round of eight.

***

What remains now in the round of eight is only the fourth match.

S1 student Lisanna Annexia against A1 student Mulyadi Murhahan.

But this doesn't seem to be a match I need to tell you anymore since the result is clear.

As soon as the two participants entered the arena, Lisanna immediately activated her burning blue aura.

Even when Mulyadi Murhahan was unable to do anything, he was immediately pushed back out of the arena because he could not maintain his footing in the arena by the powerful impact of the aura of the sword Lisanna.

The absolute victory in the fourth round of the last eight was won by Lisanna Annexia.

Thus, complete have been the top four participants in the new student swordsmanship competition, namely me, Alvin Hermes, Jeremy Rudd, and as the last participant, Lisanna Annexia.
