Chapter 421 Too Late

"Alright everyone, the first round of the tournament is finally over and I'm sure everyone already knows the students who made it through but just to recap, I will call out their names once again." The sergeant articulated as his voice resounded through the speakers around the tournament.

There had been a total of twenty-eight fights so far and every moment of it was quite enjoyable for the students as some of them could be seen jumping up and down in the stands now.

There were a couple of the fights that were boring but most of them were super engaging and best of all shocking, there were a lot of shocking moments in the first half of this tournament.

"Alright, from Crockel Academy, a total of four students surprisingly made it to the next round. We have Tammy Phillips and Pearl Reeves as the only third-year students who made it through and then we have second-year Nate Smith and first-year Christine Lome." The sergeant announced.

It was quite shocking how Crockel Academy arrived with four third-year students and out of their four survivors only two were third years.

"Eukerion Academy made it out with just three survivors, we have Cherry Snow, Florence Rock, and Axel Maximus all third-year students."

That was pretty understandable for Eukerion Academy, these were their only exceptional students, the other ones didn't do so well even the other third years.

"Tron Ville Academy made it out with just two students both being third-year students, we have Jonathan Wave and Draco Lawrence. And then finally we have Phoenix Academy who made it out with the same number of students as Crockel Academy, we have Barry Henshaw, Ryan Tame, Taylor Larson, and Blaze Damon."

All fourteen students who made it to the next round were now lined up on the pitch with the crowd's gaze on them.

The fights took quite a long time to finish, and because the sun was starting to set and the sky was slowly getting dark, this session of the tournament had to be brought to an end here.

The sergeant dismissed everyone with a few words, and now that everyone was allowed to go, the students started making their way down the stands and out of the stadium.

Chloe had her eyes on the top part where the world leaders were staying, and as soon as she saw her father get up, she got up from her seat.

"Um…Tania, I have to go take care of something, we'll meet up in the room."

"It's okay, I'll be fine with Luis," Tania replied before turning her gaze to Luis.

"Okay." She said before turning to leave. "See you later, Ace, sorry about yesterday."

"Huh?" Ace said before quickly turning his gaze to her. "Hey, wait up."

With Ace and Chloe now gone it was now just Dylan, Tania, and Luis in the stands.

"Hey, I still haven't seen my brother, I looked for him the whole time but I just couldn't see him."

"Um…maybe you didn't look well enough, I'm sure he must be back with the others."

"Yeah, but he should have come to find me, I know he can't go a day without checking up on me." She replied.

"Maybe he had something to take care of, don't worry, he's okay." He assured her.

'I hope you're right about that.' Lena said.

"Come on, let's get out of here." He said before he got up from his seat and helped her up. "Let's go, Dylan."

Dylan waited for a while before he slowly got up from his seat and began to follow the two from behind.

The two walked alongside each other without saying anything and just as they got to the entrance, a sword came slashing toward them from the right.

It wasn't just a sword but two blades, the Angel didn't really have the time to respond to that, so he did the only sensible thing he could do to protect Tania and that was grabbing both of the blades with his bare hands.

Blood gushed down from his hands as he got a closer look at the blades to see that they looked just like his double Katana of retaliation.

"Hey, where did you….?"

He wasn't able to finish that question as he slowly looked up to see that Pearl was the one holding on to the blade.

"Sorry, I didn't expect you to grab them with your hands." She said with an awkward expression on her face.

After seeing who it was, the Angel let out a sigh before letting go of the blades.

"Were you trying to chop off our heads?" Tania questioned.

It was pretty obvious that she was offended.

"I'm sorry, I just wanted to see how he would react, I would have stopped if it had gotten close to any of your heads." Pearl apologized.

"It's okay." The Angel said before stretching both of his hands to reveal how the wounds were slowly closing up.

"I still can't get used to that." The third-year student said before blinking her eyes a couple of times.

After that, she slowly turned her gaze to Tania and offered her hand for a handshake.

"I believe we haven't met, I'm Pearl, Luis' big sister."

"I'm Tania." She replied with a bit of awkwardness to her voice.

"I heard you're an old friend of Luis, nice to meet you."

"You too."

"So, Luis, I came to return your sword." She said before raising both of the blades to place them on her shoulder.

"Oh, thank you." He said before stretching his hands to try and take the blades but she moved it further away from him.

"Not so fast, first, you must tell me where and how you got these swords, it's not that easy for anyone to get their hands on a Mystic weapon, especially a first-year student."

'I should have seen this coming.' The Angel said subconsciously before placing his hand on his forehead.

With Michael still trying to get up from the floor, Jude quickly charged toward their opponent with his blade.

Just as he closed up on her, he twisted the hilt of the blade and activated the purple lightning.

With the blade now covered with an aggressive force of elemental energy, he struck toward her, but before the blade could get to her, she quickly formed a polearm with the purple energy and used it to block it.

"Do you really think I'm just going to stand still and let that thing hit me again?"

"So, this is your real form, huh?"

"Maybe." She replied with a wry smile.

As soon as she said that, her eye took a sudden purple glow as two large spears from both sides quickly came flying toward the young knight.

Jude sensed them fast enough to pull back his sword and avoid them with a quick backflip.

Tauriel quickly fired three arrows toward her at that time, but before they could hit her, she effortlessly spun her polearm to block all of them.

"You know, you guys would have had a little bit of fighting chance if this was daytime but you chose to take me on at the wrong time, this is the night there is darkness and a lot of shadows, shadows for me to use as I please." She bragged before bursting into a feat of maniacal laughter. "You're all going to die here, all I just have to do is kill the knight and the man from the other world."

As soon as she finished saying that, a shadow vine quickly latched onto Jude's leg, but before it could yank him forward just like it did to Michael, he slashed right through it with the lightning blade.

"Huh?" She gasped as soon as she saw Jude slash right through her shadow vine.

"Keep going on about your shadow abilities, but I know that just like you, it's also weak to purple lightning, your polearm was able to survive that block because you had it reinforced, but even then, after I pulled out, I noticed there was a crack which means that I just have to hit it hard enough."

The young knight quickly took off toward her, and out of instinct she raised her polearm to block the strike even reinforcing it further, but the impact of the heavy strike from the knight was just too much and ended up shattering the polearm.

That wasn't all, the polearm was shattered and the impact from the hit sent her flying backward until she hit the same tree where Michael hit.

"Oof, she almost hit me," Michael muttered before opening his palm to reveal some kind of purple cube.

"What's that?" Jude asked as soon as he got close to him.

"Hmm, it's just a little prison where we will be keeping her."

After explaining it to them, Michael slowly bent down beside her, but before he could do anything with the small cube, her body slowly turned to ash.

"Everyone on your guard!"

"Too late."

Jude was the first to hear that voice, and before he could do anything, he felt a piercing pain in his back.

Michael quickly blasted her with his blaster and sent her flying backward, but she had already done what she wanted to do as Jude slowly dropped to his knees with the back of his cloth slowly soaking up blood.

"Jude, no!"
