As we walked while talking, we reached the entrance to the amphitheater. The entrance is crowded with students and outsiders.
Jazlyn stepped forward, placed both hands on his waist, and shouted confidently.
"This is the princess's order! Everyone get out of the way, so I can get in!"
People looked back, saw the princess's face, and cleared the way. We were able to easily enter the amphitheater through an open road.
Lena went to the players' dressing room, and we went to the bleachers. As we went, people moved out of the way, and we were able to get good seats. My wife and I sat in the center, and the SS and Kasha Clan sat around us.
On the central floor of the amphitheater, there is a wide stone platform about 1 meter high and square. There is no rope on the stone platform, so if you fall outside, you will be disqualified. The individual martial arts competition started this morning and continued with 1:1 duels without a break, and even now, two fighters are clashing swords on a stone platform. We just came to watch Lena's match later.
At the top of the amphitheater were VIP seats, where people were sitting on luxurious sofas. Let's take a look at their faces, Jazlyn explained.
"Honey. The person over there is my father, Emperor Fadibe, and next to me is my mother, Empress Tillie. Next to them are her first brother, Crown Prince Marcus, and her second brother, Thor Kell. There is also Nurdah, the leader of the Imperial Knights, Waliya, the leader of the Imperial Wizards, and Obius, the Mage Tower Lord."
"Shouldn't you go there too?"
"Hohoho~ Where can I go leaving my honey behind? I said I would watch it with my friends."
"Thanks. But what if the emperor catches me because I'm with you?"
"So, become great quickly. "He's confident enough to be with me."
"I understand."
Quagga-ga-ga-ga-ga-ga-ga-ga
Suddenly, I heard the sound of rocks breaking and looked down to see a player being pushed out, breaking the stone platform. The athlete coughed up blood and soon lost consciousness. While the winning athlete went down the podium shouting hurray, priests rushed over and carried the unconscious athlete onto a stretcher. Seeing as there was no disqualification, I guess the opponent wasn't dead. After the wizards restored the stone platform to its original state with magic, the host announced the next match.
"The next match is~!!! It's a duel between Lena, a second-year academy wizard, and Gutta, a druid from the western forest!!!"
People outside the academy can also participate in the academy martial arts competition. Instead, outsiders have an age limit of 24 and must pay a large sum of money to participate. They participate with the goal of winning and gaining fame and treasure.
An iron door on one side of the wall below the amphitheater opened, and Lena, wearing a cone hat and a wizard's coat, came out, and a large man wearing an animal skin came out from the iron door on the other side.
The two climbed onto the stone platform and looked at each other from a long distance.
"Hello~ I'm Lena!"
Lena greeted her partner brightly. The stone podium is enchanted to make the sound louder, so everyone in the stadium can hear conversations on the podium. This is the operator's consideration to ensure that spectators can enjoy the game. When two enemies meet on a podium, an amusing scene of them swearing at each other can occur.
Gutta looked down on Lena in a husky voice.
"Tsk. Fighting with a child like you is a shame to the clan."
"What?!"
Lena was so angry that she turned red, but Gutta continued her conversation calmly.
"I learned all the druid skills of my clan and went out because there were no more people around to fight. I am strong. There is no shame in you running away, so I recommend you go down."
"Shut up and come. Fuck."
"For a child, a beating is medicine. "Don't regret it."
"Fuck you."
Gutta raised both hands and shouted a spell.
Hehe~~ My animal friends~ Help me!"
Then the portal opened and 12 large white wolves jumped out.
"Krrrr!!"
"Wow! Kkkk! "Wow!!"
Gutta burst into laughter.
Haha! The clan's best druid summoned 10 wolves, but I summoned 12!! You will fall before my talent!!! Attack!"
Lena muttered indifferently as 12 wolves rushed at Guta's command.
"Astral Zeon troops come out."
Astral Zeons came out of the air screaming.
"Astral~!"
"Aaaaastral!! Waaaaa!!"
The number easily exceeds dozens. While the wolves hesitated in confusion, the Astral Zeons rushed in.
Rumbling
Several wolves opened their mouths and charged, but they passed through Astral Zeon's body and became meat for subsequent attacks. Soon all the wolves were dead and only Gutta remained.
"Aaaaah! My friends! This can't be happening! No!!! "You, I will definitely kill you!!"
Gutta cried out in resentment.
"Beat me."
At Lena's single word, all Astral Zeon rushed to Gutta.
Doo doo doo doo
"Ah~ Astraaaaal~"
Gutta jumped forward and threw out his fist, wondering if his huge body was just for show.
Quagga gaga
As the whirlpool flew from his fist, the Astral Zeon shield warrior stuck his large shield on the ground and stood in front of it.
Kwaaaaang
The whirlpool and the large shield collided, creating a roar that shook heaven and earth, but the shield warrior remained in place without moving back even a millimeter.
"This can't be right…"
Guta's despairing voice was heard.
Astral Zeon all have excellent warrior-level abilities. That's why Astral Zeon was able to fight the Piggy warriors one-on-one. Lena, with her Astral Zeon troops, is a one-man army.
Gutta tried to punch again, but faster than he could, the Astral Zeon assassin grazed both of his ankles with a dagger.
Gradually, slowly
"Quaaaaa!!"
As Gutta fell to the ground with a thud, the Astral Zeons gathered around and started stomping on it excitedly.
Pukpuk pukpuk pukpuk puk puk puk puk puk puk puk puk puk puk puk puk puk puk puk puk puk puk puk puk puk puk
"Ahh! Wait for a sec! Ugh! Oh, don't hit there! Wow! "My dick hurts!!"
After being beaten like a slug, starving, she lost her mind and sank down. One Astral Zeon was kicking his head so hard that red blood was spreading on his pants.
Lena swung one of her hands and the Astral Zeons disappeared in a whimper. Afterward, the impressed host gave an impassioned speech.
"Oooooh! Miss Lena is amazing! Each one of Miss Lena's summons were outstanding warriors! For Guta, it must have felt like fighting dozens of Guta! This is an incredible achievement that will shake up the world of summoning magic! How can a second-year academy student have these skills?"
At that time, a maid approached the host and said something in a whisper.
Whisper
The host opened her eyes wide in surprise and shouted at the top of her voice.
"I just received important information!! Miss Lena was the daughter of the magic tower lord Obius!! After all, the best wizard family! Obius-sama's magical lineage isn't going anywhere! Obius must be happy to have such an amazing daughter!"
People are buzzing and Lena twirls her body as if she is embarrassed and then goes down her platform. Gutta, who has lost interest in people, is already leaving the iron gate on a stretcher. Once the podium was clean, the next players entered according to the emcee's declaration.
*************************
Emperor Padiv spoke to Obius in the VIP section.
"Obius. "I didn't know your second daughter had that kind of talent."
Haha. "I didn't know either."
"Huh… Didn't you tell Lena to hide her abilities?"
"I never instructed Lena to do that. Actually, I was giving up on Lena's magic. "Don't you know that, Your Majesty?"
"Hmm. "Yes."
"A few weeks ago Lena suddenly awakened to her magic. "On his own, without my help."
"Hoo~ That's really amazing. It's amazing."
"Thank you."
"The gold medal for the individual competition in this martial arts competition has already been decided. Noordach. It's Wally. What do you think?"
The emperor's question was answered by Noordah, a Hellchang man wearing magic armor, and Waliya, a beautiful female sorceress in her early 40s.
"You only know the long and short of it when you see it… Compared to the players who came out this morning, Lena is overwhelmingly stronger. Beast Princess Kashana or my daughter Kalere would have been able to tear through those summoned beasts and reach Lena, but it's a shame that both of them only participated in the team competition."
"Lena's magic is beyond the level of her magic tower professor. At least it is an inexcusable fact that Lena is the best wizard in this competition."
The emperor glanced at Waliya.
"Wali. Do you think Lena can take over the position of leader of the Empire's wizards?"
"The position of head of the magic division is not one that can be achieved just by being good at magic. Considering everything, including command and combat experience, Lena fails."
"It's as if Lena is saying that she is better at magic than you."
"Tsk. "I will have no comment."
The emperor sensed that if he provoked Waliya any further, she would get upset. It is also an emperor's virtue to understand the feelings of subordinates and ensure that their loyalty does not decline. The emperor indifferently looked away from Waliya and spoke to Obius in a warning tone.
"Obius. Every powerful person in this stadium will have their eyes on Lena. Do you understand what I mean?"
"I know very well. "What you're saying is make Lena work for Your Majesty."
Haha. You captured exactly what I wanted to say. I will guarantee Lena everything: money, status, fame, everything. Unless Lena works for me, she should study at the Magic Tower instead of going to other powerful people. "You are wise, so you will understand, right?"
"I will do so."
If an emperor has something outstanding, he will always try to have it, whether it is an object or a person, and Obius knows the emperor's psychology well. Still, Obius didn't feel particularly bad. This is because all those who fall under the emperor gain power and live well.
Obius thought of Lena with a happy heart.
