[3rd Circle - Quagmire] *Whoosh* *Ploop* Brigida's surroundings turn into a large sticky quagmire and inhibit Brigida's movement. This surprised her as she didn't expect Angus to use different elemental spells at such a large scale.
Initially, she thought Angus would use another large-scale fire-based spell and cover herself with thick mana to avoid the damage. Unfortunately, she didn't have time to think about it as two huge Fire elemental beasts were charging at her.
*BOOOM* The Fire Wyrm and Fire Serpent hit Brigida, who is still struggling to escape the sticky Quagmire. Angus modified his quagmire spell to become more sticky rather than become bottomless quicksand.
*Snap* *BOOOM* [Fire Cast - Explosion] As soon as the two fire elemental beasts hit Brigida, Angus snaps his finger and explodes them. The explosion is powerful and big as they contain a lot of fire elemental. The entire arena was also enveloped by the destructive blast.
Fortunately, Angus is capable of redirecting the explosion to not affect him. He also didn't mind the heat with his current endurance and fire resistance. After a while, the scene finally cleared, but Angus didn't care about Brigida and kept looking at Nergal's group.
He wants to know the reaction of the Nergal group since their behavior is really weird. His last attack may not be as strong as Jayna's Dawn Star. However, it can still heavily injure any sixth-grade combatant or even kill them if they get hit at close range.
Therefore, it is weird for the Nergal's group to stay calm while their Princess is in this situation. As the dust disperses, Angus finds Brigida is somehow alive but in a horrible situation. Her entire body is charred and has third-degree burning wounds in various places.
Half of her armor is gone, along with her left hand. Angus guesses she sacrifices her left hand to defend against the explosion. It is an excellent decision to avoid getting killed, but her body is also not in good condition.
She also has various bleeding wounds all over her body. Her face is wholly degraded from the burning. Despite this, she is still trying to stand and fight Angus with Halberd's help.
At this moment, Angus finds the Nergal's group finally reacting and decides to leave the plaza as if they abandon her prodigious Princess. This reaction confuses Angus further.
'Weird… Is she just bait? Don't tell me she is something like a clone and not the real one? But, her halberd is a real artifact. I need to investigate her further.' thought Angus.
Then, Angus shoots a sleeping spell at his opponent and makes her unconscious [3rd Circle - Deep Sleep]. Without being able to resist, Princess Brigida fell unconscious.
Seeing his opponent fall unconscious, "The winner is Angus Victory." declared Elder Yawan.
Angus ignores the declaration and uses some barrier spells to encase Brigida before bringing her to his group since the Nergal's group has already left the plaza.
"Aunt Extalia…" called Angus.
"I know. I already send people to follow them. I also called some of our knights to secure this Princess. Just keep her like that for now and prevent her from dying." said Aunt Extalia.
Aunt Extalia also notices the weird behavior of the Nergal group and decides to send some people to investigate it.
"Sure." said Angus as he gave some first aid treatment to Princess Brigida.
Her situation is horrible and life-threatening. It will take a miracle for her to completely recover.

However, Angus is quite adept at healing art and capable of preventing her death. To his surprise, her body is real, not just some kind of clone spell, along with her halberd artifact that he sealed away.
While Angus treats Princess Brigida, Aunt Extalia already finishes her battle in the blink of an eye. She just butchered her opponent to pieces the moment her opponent entered the arena. Her opponent couldn't react or move away from her before he became a piece of meat.
Seeing their aunt's movement, 'She has become faster!!' thought Angus and Jayna simultaneously.
"T-The winner is Extalia Amberblaze." declared Elder Yawan in surprise.
He didn't expect the crimson-haired woman to have such speed without even using any movement skill. Even he will need to use his full power to react at this ridiculous speed.
'No wonder they could join a group with Master in the Dark. Their group is abnormal, especially those four people.' thought Elder Yawan as he looked at Angus, Jayna, Anna, and Extalia.
Although the four are not in seventh grade, Yawan feels their combat prowess is too abnormal. He suspects if they can reach the seventh grade, they will definitely become one of the strongest seventh grade in the world.
Moreover, one of them is an entirely unknown entity to Elder Yawan. He still remembers the mysterious presence of Anna in yesterday's event. He knows this fragile-looking little girl is not just an ordinary monster-minded person.
'It seems I am too inexperienced. I still need to learn more.' thought Elder Yawan as he touched his cloth in his eyes.
In the meantime, Angus and everyone gather in front of Makar, sitting with his eyes closed. After a while, Makar still stays silent without moving as he has a deep thought.
"*Achoo* Angus, Anna is hungry." said Anna.
"Anna, be patient. You can eat after this." said Angus as he was relieved.
Angus and Jayna find Anna is starting to become energetic like usual despite her occasional sneezing.
"Ehh… but the Hoh Hoh Baldy is sleeping." complained Anna.
"Hush… Anna, that's rude." rebuked Jayna from the side.
Hearing this, Mira and Darren look at the silent Makar.
"Darren." called Mira.
N0 v el Next. CoM
Suddenly, Darren disappeared from his spot and tried to hit Makar.
"Wake up, old fool!!" yelled Darren.
*BAMM* Darren's fist hit Makar's short wooden staff and created a large shockwave to the surroundings.
"Huh?? Hoh.. Hoh…" said Makar.

"Hoh.. Hoh.. Is it time for breakfast? Hoh.. Hoh…" said Makar ignoring Darren's attack while stretching his arms as if he had just woken up.
"See… That Hoh Hoh Baldy is definitely sleeping!!" complained Anna from the side.
"Hoh… Hoh… Why are all of you here? Hoh.. Hoh…" asked Makar.
Hearing this, Darren readied his fist to beat the shit of the old man in front of him.
"Hoh.. Hoh… It seems you have already finished your bori.. I mean test. Hoh.. Hoh… Alright, you all passed the test. Hoh… Hoh… Hoh…" laughed Makar awkwardly.
Before anyone could react, "Hoh.. Hoh… I will wait for you inside. Hoh.. Hoh.." added Makar before disappearing from his spot.
Makar knows it is better to escape now. He didn't expect the first battle to be so boring that he somehow fell asleep. Otherwise, he will not dare to sleep in front of Mira even if he has hundreds of lives.
The nearby Altras examiners are surprised at their spiritual leader's behavior of running away shamelessly.
Ignoring Makar that running away, "Angus, can we eat now? My tummy is already giddy giddy." said Anna while holding her tummy.
"Uhh.. Sure, let's go back first. Master Mira, Master Darren, I hope you don't mind if we enter Nirvas later." said Angus.
Mira nodded with her usual expressionless face before giving her candy.
"Is this for me?? Thank you, Mira. *Achoo*" said Anna before sneezing again.
Mira avoids her sneezing easily before patting Anna again. Then, they decide to return back to the hotel first. Since they register themself as a group, they need to enter together. Otherwise, the one that enters Nirvas later is unable to enter.
Their pass only works for the people that enter first. If they enter Nirvas in a separate group and at a different time, the latter group will count as a different group and be unable to enter. Therefore, they enter the Nirvas together.
Angus also didn't forget to bring Princess Brigida to their hotel. Fortunately, they had already rented the whole place and didn't need to worry about other customers seeing an injured person. Arriving at the hotel, Angus and Aunt Extalia separate from the others.
The prior is sending Brigida to a more secure place and checking her condition while the latter takes care of the injured Eric and organizes the other knights.
As for the rest of the group, they begin to eat in the dining area. To be exact, they witness how the little gluttony Anna gobbles large amounts of food in a short time rather than eating.
In the meantime, Angus arrives underground with the unconscious Brigida at the secured area. This is the same room where the last spy was detained.
After chaining Brigida on the cold table, Angus releases all his spell barriers and dispels his sleeping spell before observing Brigida's condition further.
Despite the release of the sleeping spell, Brigida still is not waking up from her horrible condition. He finds her body is quite toned and muscular as a sign of her strict regular training.
Suddenly, Angus notices something and touches Brigida's hair, which somehow survives the burn. After rubbing the hair on his finger for a while, he finds the blonde hair turning purple. Then, Angus sniffed his hand and closed his eyes as he tried to [Analyze] it from the smell.
A few moments later, he opened his eyes and looked at Brigida for a moment. Then, he sent a jolt of small lightning elements into her heart. *Bzzt* *ARRGHH* Brigida immediately wakes up and cries in pain.
