Chapter 131 Ch. 131: Graduation Exam [5]
"Allez!"
The moment the word fell, Adrian swiftly lunged forward and swung his sword.
However, Felicia agilely jumped backward, causing Adrian to slash through empty air.
Hovering momentarily, Felicia infused her arrow with Wind Elemental and released it towards Adrian, however, he effortlessly deflected it.
—Boom!
The floor shattered, sending clouds of dust and debris hurtling into the air.
Landing perfectly on the ground, Felicia was forced to jump and roll to the side when a crescent of white light rushed toward her.
—Boom!
The ground violently erupted, billowing clouds of dust and debris.
Bringing her roll to a halt, Felicia nocked three arrows onto her bow as she spotted the white-haired boy sprinting in the distance.
With precision, she released the arrows, sending them soaring toward Adrian.
As the bolts charged at him, Adrian raised his sword and deftly thwarted them.
—Bang! —Bang! —Bang!
Undeterred, Felicia shot one arrow after another. However, the outcome remained unchanged as Adrian effortlessly parried each one.
—Bang! —Bang! —Bang!
Realizing her efforts were in vain and with Adrian closing in, Felicia ceased firing and quickly enveloped her bow with an Earth Elemental, while Adrian covered his weapon with Wind Elemental.
When the distance between them diminished, both combatants swung their weapons.
—Bang!
The thunderous sound reverberated through the space as the grating noise of their weapons clashing filled the air, straining against each other.
While other elements typically serve offensive purposes, the Earth Elemental had the unique ability to strengthen weapons, just like one wielded by Felicia.
Despite being made of wood, Felicia's bow was now transformed into a weapon as strong and resilient as metal.
In a swift motion, Adrian twisted his wrist, altering the surface of his sword, and shoved Felicia's bow to the side.
Seizing the opportunity, Adrian retrieved his sword and thrust forward, however, Felicia tilted her head and swiftly caught his wrist.
In a split second, Felicia swiftly pivoted Adrian's body to the side and delivered a powerful kick to his back, causing him to tumble several times across the floor.
As Adrian's rolling came to a halt, he locked his cerulean eyes with hers.
Felicia, in response, offered him an innocent smile, acting as if her previous actions were nothing more than an illusion.
'So, that is what Nathaniel means, huh?'
Well, considering her high agility, it was understandable.
Even without her bow, it seemed she could fight him barehanded.
Standing tall on his feet, Adrian readied his sword and dashed toward Felicia.
Stretching her smile even wider, Felicia drew three arrows from her quiver and began to infuse them with the Wind Elemental.
The moment they began to glow brightly, she released them, unleashing them towards Adrian.
As the projectiles hurtled toward him, Adrian skillfully zig-zagged to dodge, causing the arrows to strike the floor behind him.
—Boom! —Boom! —Boom!
The ground burst like fireworks, dispersing dirt and rubble into the air.
Nevertheless, Felicia didn't give up and continued to send a volley of arrows.
As expected of the Elven race, their skill with the bow was on a whole different level compared to any humans he had encountered.
Just look at her, she could even fire a dozen arrows within a minute, which was crazy.
When the distance between them narrowed, they lifted their weapons and swung them.
—Bang!
The moment their weapon clashed, the dust around them was swept away by the shockwave.
As they strained against each other to win the bound, Adrian lifted his leg to deliver a kick.
However, Felicia took a step backward and caught Adrian's leg in mid-air.
'Huh?' contemporary romance
Adrian couldn't help but be surprised.
In a surprising turn of events, Felicia propelled him upward to pass above her, sending Adrian to roll several times on the ground upon landing.
Stopping his rolling, Adrian clicked his tongue in annoyance.
Her agility was no joke; it almost seemed as if he was up against a seasoned military instructor.
Realizing that his current approach was ineffective, Adrian knew he needed to find another way to inflict damage on Felicia.
Standing upright, he began to chant inwardly, channeling his Wind Elemental into his blade.
Once the bright light enveloped his blade, Adrian swung it in the air, unleashing a barrage of white crescents towards Felicia.
However, to Adrian's dismay, Felicia displayed her agility once again.
With graceful movements, she effortlessly dodged his incoming attacks, swaying her body left and right as if engaged in a dance.
"Tsk."
Adrian clicked his tongue in frustration, realizing that his attacks were fruitless.
As time ticked by, Adrian propelled himself forward once again, prompting Felicia to respond by shooting a barrage of arrows in his direction.
However, Adrian skillfully evaded them with ease.
'There!'
Spotting an opening, Adrian immediately slashed his sword through the air as he dashed towards his opponent.
Upon seeing it, surprise washed over her face.
Felicia, who was reaching for another arrow from her quiver, abruptly halted her motion and executed a swift backflip.
—Boom! —Boom! —Boom!
A series of explosions reverberated through the surrounding area, releasing a fog of dirt and debris covering the arena.
Landing perfectly on the ground, Felicia was forced to perform yet another backflip as Adrian retaliated with a barrage of white crescent light.
—Boom! —Boom! —Boom!
Noticing the diminishing distance between them, Felicia who just landed swiftly covered her bow with Earth Elemental and waved it.
—Bang!
With a resounding bang, their weapons clashed.
Retrieving their respective weapons, they slashed once again.
—Bang!
And they continued to exchange blows for a few seconds.
Upon observing Felicia's fighting style, Adrian began to comprehend her movements.
Felicia couldn't help but furrow her eyebrows.
Typically, when facing new opponents, they would struggle before eventually being defeated by her—well, Nathaniel didn't count here.
It was true that Adrian initially struggled, but it only took him a few minutes to catch up and keep up with her.
Soon, Felicia's furrowed brows relaxed before returning to their original position, and a radiant smile graced her lips.
'As expected of the Imperial Princes. Not only Nathaniel, but Adrian was also remarkable. They quickly adapted to my fighting style.'
—Bang!
A deafening sound echoed through the surroundings and the grating noise was heard when they strained against each other.
Shoving Felicia's sword, Adrian thrust his sword toward Felicia's face.
Reacting quickly, she slightly tilted her head and deftly caught his wrist then twisted it, causing Adrian's sword to plummet to the ground.
Seizing the opportunity, Felicia swung her bow toward his head and Adrian instinctively raised his other arm, positioning it as a shield to protect his face.
—Whack!
A tingling sensation spread through his arm as the blow struck his arm.
Ignoring it, Adrian grabbed Felicia's wrist, which held his own, and delivered to kick her in the head.
However, before it connected, Felicia skillfully slipped her hand from his grasp and evaded his attack by stepping backward, causing Adrian's kick to hit an empty air.
Determined to press on, Adrian balled his fist and launched a punch towards Felicia's face.
But once again, she effortlessly caught his fist and pulled him forward, forcing him to turn around.
With Adrian now positioned in front of her, Felicia swiftly placed her bow at his throat, choking him with its presence.
"Urk!"
Adrian struggled to break free, but his efforts were in vain and as the oxygen thinned in his lungs, he swiftly lifted his leg and landed a kick on Felicia's head.
—Whack!
"Ugh!"
As her grip on his throat began to weaken, Adrian swiftly broke free from Felicia's hold.
He promptly retrieved his sword and leaped forward, creating some distance between them before eventually standing straight facing Felicia up ahead.
"Cough, cough!"
Regaining his breath, Adrian wasted no time and swiftly charged forward once more.
Upon witnessing his effort, a delighted expression adorned Felicia's face.
In response, she unleashed a volley of arrows in Adrian's direction.
However, just as before, Adrian effortlessly dodged the attacks, zig-zagging to evade the arrows that came his way.
—Boom! —Boom! —Boom!
The floor shattered when Felicia's arrow hit the ground, unleashing clouds of dust and debris into the air.
Taking advantage of the moment Felicia reached for an arrow in her quiver, Adrian swung his sword in the air, sending a barrage of white crescents towards her.
This forced Felicia to cease her firing and dodge the incoming attack, moving her body slightly to the right and left.
"Tsk."
Adrian clicked his tongue in irritation.
It was indeed true that he possessed the ability to engage her from long distances.
However, when confronted with her at close range, he realized that he needed to devise an alternative strategy.
Her agility was no laughing matter, and he had to acknowledge that.
As soon as the distance between them diminished, they swiftly wielded their weapons.
—Bang!
A deafening sound resonated as their weapons collided.
Retrieving their respective weapons, they swung them once again.
—Bang!
With a resounding bang, they engaged in a fierce exchange of blows for several minutes.
—Bang! —Bang! —Bang!
