Heavenly Saga

Chapter 242: Is It Finished!?

After Kraftvoll used the maximum output of his Gravitation Field seishin spell, Prince Aragorn and Godwin used this chance to attack the enemy team with all their might.

Right before their seishin spells reached the enemy team, the Ice Queen was able to conjure a defensive seishin spell to protect herself and her teammates. The leader of the enemy team did it at the spur of the moment so Prince Aragorn and Godwin had no idea what transpired.

"Did we get them?" asked Godwin as the cloud of smoke made their vision limited.

"We won't be able to see at this point. You can remove the smoke using your Nature's Breeze seishin spell to see," said Prince Aragorn in response to his Third Brother. 

Upon hearing his Second Brother, Godwin nodded and he started chanting without a moment of hesitation. He chanted, "Oh ye who represents the breadth of the world, let the dweller of the lower world feel your presence, Nature's Breeze!"

The green seishin essences in the surroundings started to gather around him the moment he started chanting that seishin spell of his. In the midst of his chant, those green seishin essences that he was able to accumulate started to change into particles of air one by one.

At the end of his chant, the particles of winds that he was able to gather created a breeze that managed to slowly pushed the smoke upon the arena. 

After the smokes cleared, Kraftvoll's two sworn brothers were a little shocked after seeing the Lava Domain seishin spell. 

A moment later, the elven prince said to Godwin, "They managed to defend against our all-out attack, huh. Well, let's regroup with First Brother-!" 

To his surprise, when he turned around he saw that Kraftvoll was lying on the ground while there were drops of blood that he coughed up. "FIRST BROTHER!" Prince Aragorn shouted as he ran toward the leader of their team.

Upon hearing the elven prince, Godwin worriedly asked, "What happened to First Brother!?" A moment later, he decided to look to his back, and like the elven prince, he also ran toward the side of their First Brother.

"There are some earth spikes here! It must be the ones used against First Brother!" said Godwin as the elven prince was checking on their leader.

After hearing Godwin, Prince Aragorn's eyes suddenly opened wide, "Third Brother don't let you guard do-!"

To his surprise, an enemy went behind his back and used it to bare an elemental weapon at his neck. When the elven prince looked at Godwin, he was also in a similar situation. 

'I still have my fire familiar Qilin! Where is it!?' the elven prince thought to himself. He desperately searched for it until his hopes were shattered.

He was able to find the Qilin that he summoned earlier. Unfortunately, it was already being defeated by the hand of the Ice Queen before he could even have a chance to give it some command.

'Now, everything is over!' the elven prince thought to himself as he resigned to their fate.

"THE BATTLE IS OVER!" shouted the emcee using his sound-amplifying seishin device. 

After the announcement, some of the great healers of the academy went to Kraftvoll's side to heal him due to his injuries. At that time, the three members of the enemy team decided to take their exits as the people in the stadium cheered for their victory.

"WHAT A GREAT FIGHT!"

"Those kids are only third graders!? How are they able to fight against them up to that degree!?"

"What a pity that they are not going to fight next year! I wonder who would win if that happens,"

After the healers had done their job, Kraftvoll regained his consciousness. The moment he opened his eyes, he saw the frustrated expressions of his two sworn brothers. Kraftvoll could not help but be frustrated as well as he rose.

A moment later, Teacher Liebe descended from the seats of the third graders. She saw how frustrated her students were at that time so she said to them, "Why are the three of you frustrated?"

After hearing their homeroom teacher, the three misfits couldn't help but look at their homeroom teacher with puzzled expressions. A moment later, Kraftvoll responded to their homeroom teacher saying, "We've lost! And it's our last chance to beat them and yet we lost!"

When she heard Kraftvoll's response, Teacher Liebe suddenly showed a hint of a smile on her face. A second later, he said to her three students, "The three of you did not lose yet. The Battle Royale competition is not yet finished, right?"

The moment the three misfits heard their homeroom teacher, their spirit suddenly recovered its vigor. 

'That's right! There is still some hope!' Godwin thought to himself.

'We must settle this in the next competition! I don't want to bear a shame like this any longer!' the elven prince thought to himself.

Like his two sworn brothers who were in the deep thoughts, Kraftvoll thought to himself, 'I'm going to aim for the top! I will defeat her at that competition'

After seeing the expressions of her students, Teacher Liebe couldn't help but be happy deep in her mind. Right at the next moment, she said to the three misfits, "Let's go to our assigned room. All of you need to be at your fullest capabilities in order to reach your goal." 

The three misfits followed their homeroom teacher without a moment of hesitation after that moment. All of them had the same goal at that time - to defeat the enemy team that they lost a couple of times.

"And that's the conclusion of this year's Three-man Team competition! We are going to have a few hours of break. Make sure to be back before dusk to your seats. The most awaited event will start right at that moment so be sure to make yourself comfortable at that time! See you later!" said the master of the ceremonies before he exited the stage.

After the second competition finished, all of the people in the audience slowly exited the Alstan Stadium to go outside where the most stalls were installed. 

Midway through their room, Godwin was wondering about something. To satisfy this curiosity of his, he asked Kraftvoll, "First Brother, how did you lost consciousness earlier? When our seishin spells hit with the defensive seishin spell of the enemy, a smoke limit our vision so we were unable to see what happened."

After hearing Godwin's question, Kraftvoll's face suddenly turned into a very serious one.

A moment later, he said in response to his Third Brother, "A moment after the smoke enveloped the area, numerous spikes of earth hit my tummy and my back at the same time so I lost my consciousness right after that moment. It was too late when I noticed the brown seishin essences that were going to the ground. If only I noticed it sooner, probably, we would no-!

"Don't beat yourself up, First Brother. You are the strongest among the three of us! If you must blame yourself, blame us first because we dragged you down!" said the elven prince.

Godwin did not say anything in response to his Second Brother because he felt the same way as well. 

After hearing this, Kraftvoll was speechless because he knew that saying otherwise would only hurt the pride of his sworn brothers. After a long sigh, he said to them, "We are still weak now. Let's reach the top together!"

After hearing their First Brother, the looks on his two sworn brothers' became a lot better than before. They became more resolute on the next goal that they had after that conversation among the three of them.

Upon entering their room, they saw the other six girls in deep meditation because, like them, they were also determined to join the last competition of the yearly tournament.

Last year, when they were second graders, only Kraftvoll, Prince Aragorn, and Belle were the ones that managed to survive until the end of the competition. Those who survive managed to accumulate many Verrater points so this year, the others were also determined to aim for their survival.

Without wasting any more seconds, Kraftvoll and his two sworn brothers entered deep meditation to replenish the seishin spells that they had used up in their previous battle against the three-man team of the tenth graders.

Half an hour before the Battle Royale competition, all of the participants of the 210th class were starting to get ready to depart to the venue of the event, Mt. Verrater. 

"Haste your preparation. We must go now because would not be able to reach the venue at the time if we do not depart any minutes now," said Kraftvoll to his classmates.

After hearing Kraftvoll, Prince Kyomi giggled as quietly as she can. She thought to herself, 'Previously, I and Kyomi were the ones that are telling that to the three of them. Now, he's telling us to do that."
