Chapter 393: Although Somewhat Reluctant, Thank You Anyway

~7 min read 1,267 words

Logically speaking, in this kind of situation where one's own skills hadn't played any role, one should mostly choose to play on the edge and consume the opponent.

After all, Ursula was sitting on a Flying Broom, her consumption was definitely far less than Elisa who was constantly in an attacking state.

But no one expected this guy to actually choose such an impulsive approach at a time like this.

Alright.

In reality, Ursula's transition from dodging to charging was too fast.

Coupled with the Third Gear speed which was not at all slower than a car taking off, she fundamentally didn't leave anyone enough reaction time.

Not to mention those drama watchers or Lan Qingyou.

Even Elisa, the person involved, was the same.

However, for her, reacting or not didn't actually make much of a difference.

Just as everyone was stunned.

Ursula, diving down, crashed headfirst into something.

While emitting a deafening loud noise, she fell straight down from about six or seven meters in the air on the spot, directly passing out on the ground.

This sudden turn of events made the people, who hadn't recovered from Ursula's sudden change just now, fall into deep thought again.

They didn't understand exactly how this guy lost this match.

Wait.

In the end, what did this Black Witch crash into just now?

Some kind of transparent shield? After all, in the instant of the crash just now, a slight reflection was seen.

And it also emitted such a dull yet pleasant sound.

"It's over."

Looking at the unconscious Ursula, Elisa shrugged her shoulders.

Fortunately, her defensive measure which also served as a second line of attack took effect.

Otherwise, the subsequent battle would probably just be a war of attrition.

Of course.

It wasn't that she only knew these, but she felt that using these magics and abilities was enough against Ursula.

Those remaining moves would only be taken out during the finals.

Or rather, they were specially reserved to deal with Lan Qingyou, this Tower Witch.

Splash!

Elisa took out a test tube containing a Potion from her bosom, and then splashed it towards the unconscious Ursula.

This was a Healing Potion she developed.

It's just that unlike Lan Qingyou's Healing Potion, Elisa's Potion was milky white, and more focused on recovering external injuries, while Health Value healing was secondary.

After all, having crashed so solidly, Ursula's injuries right now were much more severe than imagined.

Fortunately, the angle wasn't too direct.

Otherwise, being disfigured on the spot wouldn't be impossible.

Of course.

Even if she was disfigured, Elisa also had the confidence to restore the other party's appearance to its original state.

[It... It's over! The first match of the semifinals is over!]

[The winner! E-li-sa!]

The transparent referee, recovering from the shock, raised its hand, announcing the end of this battle and the winner.

Originally there should have been some sort of post-match thoughts segment.

But the transparent person, after looking at Elisa's expression which seemed to show no interest, felt it was better to cancel this segment.

[Then... Then let us first let the two contestants go back to rest, in order to prepare for the subsequent matches.]

After announcing the end, the transparent person immediately sent the two back to the Rest Area.

After all, they still had to decide the third place later, so even the injured and unconscious Ursula had to be sent back to the Rest Area now.

And once the two entered the Rest Area, Lan Qingyou immediately caught Ursula and placed her on the chaise lounge.

"Although I'm somewhat reluctant, I have to say thank you for showing mercy."

Taking out a Potion, Lan Qingyou slightly lifted a bit of Ursula's veil, and then poured the Potion into the other party's mouth.

After all, it was still a live broadcast now.

She couldn't expose Ursula's face under this kind of circumstance.

"I haven't fallen so low as to strike a person who has passed out."

Facing Lan Qingyou's sudden thanks, Elisa, who was slightly caught off guard, kept a cold face, nodded to the other party, and walked to her own chair.

"..."

I always feel like this person has a hidden meaning in her words.

Looking at Elisa's back, Lan Qingyou complained in her heart.

Subsequently, she took out a blanket and covered Ursula to prevent her from catching a cold.

After completing all this, Lan Qingyou sat on the side holding her Magic Broom, waiting for the transparent person's teleportation.

The transparent person didn't make Lan Qingyou wait long either.

Only a little over a minute later, with the arena completely repaired anew, the transparent person then announced the two contestants for the second match.

Subsequently, Lan Qingyou and Xin Tianle were teleported to the arena.

[The second match, Nightmare Demon Xin Tianle versus Tower Witch Lan Qingyou!]

[The two contestants have also arrived on stage.]

[But our competition adheres to the principle of going straight at it, so there isn't that boring segment of spewing trash talk.]

[Then without further ado, may I ask if both contestants are ready?]

Xin Tianle threw away the wine bottle in his hand, grinning and sneering at the transparent person.

After seeing this, the transparent person turned to look at Lan Qingyou to confirm, only to find that Lan Qingyou had already flown ten meters into the air.

[...Then, the second match of the semifinals officially begins now!]

Without any nonsense, the transparent person, who wanted to get off work early, raised a hand and dropped it, marking the official start of the second battle.

"Hey hey, I say Witch, flying into the sky right from the start like this, isn't that a bit unkind? Or perhaps, having seen my skills, you are afraid of my skills?"

As soon as the competition started, Xin Tianle looked up at Lan Qingyou in the sky and shouted probingly.

He very much had the intention of boosting his own morale, making Lan Qingyou shake her head repeatedly.

Of course she had looked at his skills.

Putting aside whether she was afraid or not for now.

Just the special nature of the Demon Race was enough to give Lan Qingyou a headache.

Unlike the Succubi and Little Demons encountered before, Xin Tianle was considered the first very 'orthodox' Demon Lan Qingyou had encountered.

The most conventional kind of existence in novels and comics.

Indeed.

Compared to Freya's Succubi and the Huang Family Father and Son's Little Demons, Xin Tianle's Demon Race was much more common.

But although it was said to be a common race, its racial abilities were not bad at all.

Not to mention the dual modifiers for strength and spirit, they also had a racial trait similar to the Witch Race.

The Witch Race is Ageless, no matter how old they are, time will never leave any traces on their faces again.

And this common Demon Race is Undying, no matter what situation they encounter, even if they are truly killed, they won't die.

Or more accurately, they can be killed.

But after dying, they will turn into a pile of ashes, and then in a suitable time and suitable environment, they can be reborn again.

It sounds very formidable, but in reality, this is also considered a kind of restriction.

It's somewhat like the phoenix in Blue Star legends, but with essential differences.

For a phoenix, death is nothing more than a reincarnation, a stage in life.

But the Demon Race is just like other creatures, who would complain about living too long if they could avoid death?
