Chapter 721: Human Nature

Chapter 721 - Human Nature

"Her opponent isn't going to go down easily." Klaus commented as he watched Alice's battle.

"Well, does it matter? He'll lose in the end." Grey stated.

No matter how long it took, the result was the most important thing. This is one of the reasons people do whatever they can to get the results they want. Nobody would ask how they did all, all people found interest in was the result.

"I agree with you. Winning here would make her a member of the Asterope Faction. Once she gets there, her strength is bound to increase. Especially if she manages to make enough contributions and enters one of those realms." Kyle complied with Grey's reasoning.

The battle on the platform raged on. Alice was an aggressive attacker, while the young man was a calm defender. Seeing that his space element was only able to stump Alice the first time, he didn't rush into making decisions.

Fighting against someone like Alice, a single slip up would be detrimental to him since Alice would most likely take full advantage of it.

Boom! Bang!

Lightning attacks raged on, accompanied with fire, ice, and wind.

'I never thought this little fellow had the wind element as well. She did well to hide it from everyone the first time.' The young man complained internally.

Although he was astounded by the fact that this was a Dual Elemental Seelie, this wasn't the best time to marvel at it. If he manages to survive first, then he would speak about it.

The audience had already taken note of the Seelie and the crowd was shaken. Getting a Seelie was already extremely difficult given their rarity, but not only did Alice manage to get and merge with one, but it was also a Dual Elemental Seelie. Her luck was insane!

They looked at Reynolds who had already called out his Elemental Warrior, and then at Alice whose Seelie had two elements, and sighed in depression. It was like they got all the blessings in the world.

Everyone knew they were friends, which made them even more envious. How could two friends be freaks?

They couldn't help but take a peek at the trio sitting in the crowd. Whenever Alice and Reynolds finished fighting, they would sit with those three.

Is it possible that they were also freaks as well?

This was the question going through the head of the crowd. Having someone like Alice or Reynolds in a friend circle could already be counted as a blessing, having both was luck, but if there was someone else special among their group, then they were an impressive bunch.

If Klaus knew what people were thinking, he would be joyous. He wouldn't mind answering most of their questions as well. Alas, it was impossible.

The young man managed to dodge a lightning bolt by a hair's breadth, but he was met with a wind blade that he was forced to block with his lightning element.

Alice continued her attacks, while the young man occasionally countered. There were a few times when he managed to get a chance to unleash a powerful strike which put Alice off, giving him the chance to get a small advantage for a short while.

Just like Reynolds, Alice relied on the Seelie to suppress her opponent. It was only a matter of time before she took back the initiative.

The young man was hard-pressed to fight against her.

Before long.

Thud!

He fell on one knee, breathing heavily. Alice had literally been attacking him for over five minutes straight without giving him any chance to catch his breath. His entire clothes were soaked with sweat.

"I admit defeat." He said while taking long breaths. There was no use in fighting anymore, he knew his Faction was satisfied with his and Alice's performance. Even if they weren't, he couldn't continue any longer.

When he was sent forward, it was without the knowledge of Alice's Seelie having the wind element. This disrupted their plan because the speed of the Seelie was astonishing. Alice also used her lightning element to boost it as well, making things difficult for the young man.

After the young man admitted defeat, Alice stopped attacking.

"Thank you for letting me win." She said with a smile.

"How I wish I did." The young man replied with a self-deprecating chuckle.

He wasn't sad that he lost. It was normal in the life of geniuses to lose. From every loss, he had learned a lesson that has helped him grow stronger. This was why he didn't take a loss to be something detrimental to himself.

The young man left the platform, and Alice was declared the winner. She looked around, feeling slightly proud of her achievement. It was not an easy feat, but she managed to defeat someone who had far superior battle techniques.

Alice was the first person to end her battle, and looking to the side, she realized Reynolds had already started assaulting his opponent with the aid of his Elemental Warrior. It was only a matter of time before he achieved victory as well.

On the other six platforms, only two people seemed to have the chance of obtaining victory from how the current battle looked, but Alice knew not to come to a conclusion so soon since a simple thing could change the outcome of a battle.

She walked back to her seat with multiple eyes fixated on her. Making it into one of the strongest lightning Factions meant that she just acquired a powerful backer. If manages to show exceptional talent, then it would be difficult for anyone to come close to her.

A few people around Grey and his friend's seat started to throw smiles their way, hoping to create a good impression and maybe become friends.

Grey had zero interest in these petty people who only came close to you because of success. This was one of the reasons he didn't like people to begin with.

They would celebrate with you, but they would never be around to help you weather your storms.

'It was human nature.'
