The Evolution Of A Goblin To The Peak

Chapter 46 - Alice's match

It was Alice turn to fight. She was going to fight a male student of the shield class. Her opponent almost reached three meters in height.

Alice walked forward with a calm expression. She observed her opponent’s movement.

The man stopped in front of Alice and he raised his huge shield in front of him.

...

Souta rubbed his chin as he doesn’t have any idea who’s going to win this match. He doesn’t know the abilities of both fighters so it was hard to predict what’s going to happen.

"Go! Alice!" Bryan cheered for Alice using his loud voice. It’s not just him cheering for Alice but their other classmates also were cheering for her.

Souta turned his head and said, "Bryan, keep quiet..."

"Why?" Bryan looked at him.

"Hais..." Souta sighed and shook his head. For now, he’s going to ignore Bryan and will only focus his attention to the match.

...

The whole area became quiet as Alex stepped forward in front of the two fighters. He turned his head left and right to look at the two fighters and asked, "Are you two ready?"

"’Yes!"" Alice and the man from the shield class nodded their head simultaneously.

"Good, now let the match begin!!" Alex shouted as he officially started the battle between the two.

Whoosh!

Alice took out a small pipe in the pocket of her leggings. The length of the pipe was just five inches and its color was red.

"Release!"

Alice shouted and the red pipe started to transform. The pipe grew longer and a sharp blade appeared at its tip. Black metal dragon coiled around the pipe up to the blade and red gem appeared in the center of the triangular blade.

In just a moment, the small pipe became a spear.

Her opponent was surprised when he saw this scene. He subconsciously took a step back.

...

’Oi! Oi! That’s an orange grade weapon and it has compression ability!’ Souta was surprised to see that she have an orange grade weapon.

His guessed was right. It seems that she’s not an ordinary person. Orange grade and red grade weapons were already a weapon of a commander or general in a small country. But that’s not the case here in a large country. Even ordinary nobles could possess two or three red grade weapons.

The fact that she took out an orange grade weapon easily and show it to the public means that she has a higher grade weapon in her arsenal.

Souta looked at the sword on his waist. The [Vajra Sword Saya] looked ordinary compared to other weapons. The handle and the scabbard of the Vajra sword were pretty lame. The crimson blade was the only thing that differentiates it from the rest.

"Whoa! What’s that?!" Bryan exclaimed.

"That’s a spear," Souta answered him.

"No, that’s not it. How did that happen?" Bryan shook his head.

"It was because of the compression ability of the weapon." Souta sighed and said.

"Compression? what’s that?" Bryan asked him. He really doesn’t know how did that spear appear.

"Damn! You’re really an idiot!" Souta cursed at Bryan’s ignorance.

He looked around and saw that the students and teachers were not that surprised. They already knew that some weapons have that kind of ability. They were just surprised to see that she possessed that kind of weapon.

"Hais..." Souta sighed and said, "I don’t know how it works but compression is an ability that compressed large objects into a small item. Some of the weapons possessed an ability and only a few have compression ability."

In the game, the players didn’t care if the weapon has compression ability or not. It was because all the players have inventory and compression or not that didn’t matter as they would store all the items in their inventory.

"I see..." Bryan nodded.

’Did he really get it?’ Souta thought.

...

Whoosh!

Alice waved the spear in her hand and looked at her opponent. She stepped forward and clenched her fingers tightly around the spear.

Her opponent observed her every movement. He guarded tightly and prepare for her attacks.

Alice didn’t hesitate and charged towards the man. She raised her spear and stabbed it three times.

"Here she comes!" The man saw this and he raised his shield to blocked her attacks.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Sparks flew out from the collision of the spear and the shield.

"Kuh!" The man felt her power from those three attacks. He was pushed back one meter away from Alice.

’I could defeat him by continuing this!’ Alice thought and she stepped forward while stabbing her spear at the same time.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The man moved his shield and blocked her spears. The spear caused a few cracks to emerge from the surface of the shield. After all, his shield was just a blue grade weapon.

She quickly moved to his side and waved her spear.

Swoosh!

The man followed her movements with his eyes so he reacted quickly when she appeared beside him. He tightened his grip on his shield and moved it to his side.

Bang!

’Not good! My shield wouldn’t be able to handle a few more strikes!’ The man thought and felt trouble with her higher grade weapon.

Alice didn’t stop and she continued stabbing her spear.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

"Grr... I don’t have a choice." The man gritted his teeth and his aura flared up. He bent his knees and charged towards Alice.

[Shield Charge]!

"Combat arts!!" Alice was surprised when she saw this. She moved her body and jumped to the side dodging the man’s attack.

Whoosh!

Alice struck the man with her spear when he passed at her side. She wouldn’t let this chance to knock her opponent.

[Shield Bash]!

Clang!

The man parried her spear using a skill.

...

"Oh, right. Combat arts aren’t forbidden in this tournament." Souta muttered as he rubbed his chin.

The shield class really has a huge advantage in this tournament. They could use all their skill, as it only consumes their stamina just like his [Stab] and [Dash], while the mage class couldn’t use any of their spells in this tournament. It was pretty easy to win against a mage who couldn’t use their spell.

But if the mage knew how to handle close-range weapons and have combat arts like him. Then, they could fight a melee class to a stand off.

...

"Not good!" Alice hurriedly jumped away from the man while pointing his spear at him in case he chased after her.

[Shield Charge]!

The man didn’t hesitate to use his combat arts once again.

Alice prepared herself for the clash. She took a deep breath and also charged towards the man.

Whoosh!!

The man was surprised when he saw Alice intending to clash at him when he’s using his combat arts.

"Naive!" He smirked and continued his way towards her.

Clang!!

Both of them collided causing a loud metallic sound to echoed in the whole area.

Alice was getting pushed back by the power of the man. ’Should I use it?’ She thought before she shook her head.

She took a deep breath and pulled back her other hand. She then threw a powerful punch towards the shield.

Bang!

The man stopped for a moment and Alice used this opportunity to stabbed her spear on the ground. When the man continued to move forward he noticed that he wasn’t moving from his position.

"What?!" The man was shocked when he saw this.

Alice jumped in the air and twisted her body. She raised her feet and used her own combat arts.

[Repulsion Kick]!

Bang!

The man was pushed back and Alice landed on the top of his shield.

"This is the end..." Alice said before he punched the man on the forehead. She then used [Repulsion Kick] on his arm to loosen his grip on the shield.

Bang!

Once again she used [Repulsion Kick].

Bang!

"Guh!" The man was pushed back three meters away and his shield wasn’t in his hand anymore.

Whoosh!

Alice quickly pulled out her spear and charged towards the man. She waved it towards him and struck his stomach.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

She continued to launch her attack until the man fainted.

The man fell down on the ground with a loud "thud" sound.

Alice looked at the man and the spear in her hands started to go back to its item form. She placed it back in her pocket before she turned around and left.

"The winner of this match is Alice!!" Alex’s voice sounded in the whole area.

...

"That was a good fight," Souta said to Alice.

Alice nodded and sat down in the corner.

Souta glanced at her before he began to think about her fight. The man before was stronger than Lumilia so it’s natural that she drained her stamina in the fight. Stronger than Lumilia doesn’t mean that he’s overall stronger than her. If mana wasn’t forbidden to use in this tournament then Lumilia would be able to knock him down easily.

He started to think about what sort of combat arts does the other students of the shield class had. He only has two combat arts and that was the [Dash] and [Stab]. The next time the institute presented a skill, he will pick a combat arts for himself. He doesn’t need a spell as he already has a skill tree.
