Blake was angry at nobles for making people’s life harder even when they already had everything. He was pissed off at them because they could ruin someone’s life just because their pride was hurt.

“Let’s end this shit and return to Calton city, I am sick of this place.” Blake said as he made his way out of the room and to the warping room.

Alongside his 4 other teammates, Blake was warped to the lobby of the arena.

“Is it me or is something wrong with Blake?” Damon whispered to Castiel when he saw the frown on Blake’s face.

Among the 5 of them, Castiel was the one that has spent the most time with Blake. So he felt he should be the one to know what was wrong.

“That expression means that shit is about to go down.” Castiel said as he prayed to the heavens not to be put against Blake.

.....

“Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the final day of the regional competition.” The host announced.

“The final event is a 1 versus 1 elimination battle with randomly selected students, and each win grants 3 points to the region of the winners.”

The announcement made the students from the capital thank the heavens because they still had a chance of winning the regional competition although it was very slim.

For them to win the regional competition, not only were they not meant to face each other but the 3 remaining capital students had to win all their matches in the 1st round. This would leave them with 13 points.

Then in the 2nd round, they would also have to win all their matches which would give them 19 points, leaving the east region at 16 and a half points.

Although it was very unlikely that Blake’s team would win only 1 match in 2 rounds, the students from the capital were very confident, especially with what they had gotten from their families.

“The final event would not only dictate the winners of the regional competition, but also the strongest student of the Synder Empire.” The host announcement was accompanied by thunderous cheers.

With the announcement over, the random selection began.

The first face to show up on the screen was that of Damon followed by Blake.

‘Funny how it took almost 3 years for us to have a 1v1 battle.’ Damon thought as he turned to Blake whose expression hadn’t changed.

All the encounters they ever had were during tests, exercises or exams with teammates.

As for ranking challenges, Damon always thought that he would be able to defeat Blake in a 1v1 situation, but Luciano being in 2nd position prevented the encounter.

For the other matches, Serhan was paired against Lucas, Castiel against the rank 3 of the capital and Luciano against the rank 2.

[It seems they aren’t even hiding their interference anymore.] The system said in a disgusted tone after seeing the lineup. It was too much of a coincidence that none of the students from the capital was facing each other.

“It doesn’t matter.” Blake said as he began walking to one of the platforms that would take them to the top.

The platforms took both him and Damon to the center of the arena where they took their positions on the battlefield.

“This would be the 1st time we would be facing each other in almost 3 years.” Damon said to Blake as they waited for the signal to begin.

“Not to brag, but I don’t think anything would have changed.” Blake said causing Damon to laugh out loud.

“I like your confidence.” Damon said.

Their conversation made the audience wonder why Blake had been the number 1 in Calton magic school. Apart from dimensional magic, there was nothing too special about him, especially when compared to Luciano who had golden flames and Damon who had the darkness element.

“Begin!” The host finally announced the start of the final event of the regional competition.

Immediately after the signal was given, a pitch black light armor appeared on Damon’s body. He wasted no time activating one of the armor’s skills which granted him increased speed.

Although he and Blake awakened the lightning element, Blake was faster because it was his main element and he had the Raiju breathing technique that enhanced lightning spells.

With the increased speed granted by his armor and the passive of lightning and darkness element, Damon activated lightning reinforcement and dashed at Blake.

When he covered half the distance, Damon activated darkbringer before changing direction and attacking from behind.

‘He is very fast, it’s not something I can’t handle.’ Blake said as he activated lightning before moving his head to the left and dodging the punch without even turning.

‘How can he sense me?!’ Damon was so shocked by what happened that he had to back off, but that was when Blake turned to him with Ebony and Ivory in his hands.

The system’s detection skill was like a still pond. So if anyone or anything was to enter its detection range it could use the disturbance in the surrounding to map out the location and shape of the person or object.

Taking in a deep breath to temporarily boost the effect of the lightning reinforcement, Blake dashed toward Damon.

When he got within range, Blake jumped before using flame bursts to begin spinning with both blades in his hands.

‘Fuck!’ Damon cursed as he dodged the attacks until Blake landed, before creating a shadow path to slow him and prevent further follow-ups.

“Nice try, but that won’t work.” Blake said as he put back Ebony and Ivory in his dimensional pocket and threw a void dagger at Damon who was trying to retreat to a safe distance.
