Chapter 70: Pandora Vs Ambrose

I kicked the ground to launch my body towards the three puppets. We had both received the training weapons of choice, Ambrose's being two wooden dagger while mine was a wooden longsword. They said I was allowed to use any weapons I construct out mana, but I chose not to, just for the extra humiliation.

He would lose to someone who had 'barely' even awakened, how funny would that be?

Watching the 3 spirit warriors made out of air magic come towards me with their swords unsheathed and very sharp, I giggled a little. I could constantly hear this voice within me telling me to destroy him and his pride, to make sure he would never get up from what I would impose on him... To make sure to destroy all hope he has and will ever get.

Shaking my head slightly to remove such thoughts, I increased my speed by increasing the movement of my feet while also lunging in a much more effective manner. I didn't use a single spell, which made many people in the crowd scoff at my arrogance. What they didn't know was that I could easily finish the fight by going straight for Ambrose and beating him, but that would be way too easy, wouldn't it?

The three warriors split up, one going to my right, the other going towards my left and the last on coming straight at me. They clearly wanted to surround me, and I was about to let that happen. I'm giving him every chance he has to beat me, before beating him to a pulp in front of everyone without using a single spell.

When the warriors finally made a triangle formation around me, they started to close in very slowly, waiting for me to move, even an inch, so they can find a void in my defence to use it against me. The only reason they did not come at me straight away was that they felt a sense of danger around me, as if the moment they come within a 5 meter distance, their death would be inevitable.

Yes, these warriors have instincts and reactions. While the summoner can control them and give them commands, they are spirits of wandering souls. They have all their martial art abilities from before they died which is also a reason this why summoners are so sought-after. Nurture a summoner enough and you have an army to attack with whenever you want. Summoners just need a good mana pool and abilites to make a good general.

Anyway, staying in the same place this time, I waited for them to close in. I had no blind spots, so no matter where I look, I have no weakness in my defence that is due to vision. Other weaknesses would come from stances, but the most dangerous of them all was vision, and now it was taken care of.

Finally, after Ambrose grew impatient, all three came at me at the same time, making it slightly hard to dodge. I was still able to dodge due to my nimbleness and flexibility, but there were a few close calls.

Ducking slightly, an air made blade missed my head, while another missed my hip as i spun on my heel. Another blade came from left going straight towards my shoulder, yet missing by a centimeter as I shifted my shoulder downwards while stepping backwards out of the blades reach.

Everything seemed more like a dance than an actual fight, as the audience watched while I maneuvered my way around the blades as if I was just walking to the park.

*GASP!*

Watching me dodge without even having my eyes open, the crowd gasped while the stronger ones who wanted to recruit a few people from the party into their academies narrowed their eyes in concentration.

All of them had one thing in mind, and it was about what kind of technique I am using. For some reason these less than avarage people cannot believe that my sense of awareness is that good. Yes, I might be cheating because I can't see, but... It's still environmental awareness okay! I'm cool...

I kept dodging for a bit until I finally decided to attack to see how sturdy the warriors were. Gripping my sword tightly and swinging it towards one of the warriors, it moved incredibly fast, to the point most people in the hall could only see a blur. Slashing through the warrior, I felt no resistance which made me furrow my brows slightly.

'They are incorporeal?' I thought with a weird complexation on my face. I did not know what I was about to do, but immediately, something clicked within me after activating the thought acceleration a divine calculation.

'If they are the wandering souls of warriors, this means they have soul flames, but if I were to blatantly steal their soul flames, it would create a huge stir... They are made of air, and they have a mana pseudo mana heart that allowed them to stay stable... And they are made out of air.... And i can't touch them... But they can hurt me... hehe..'

Thrusting my entire arm forwards with all my power, my hand plunged into the chest of the warrior who had already started to attack me with his sword, Little did he know, my magic was about to take effect.

A pale blue flame ignited within the warriors mana heart, burning it and a few pseudo mana veins and arteries. Even though this wasn't going to kill it directly, it will do something else.

There are three ways to increase pressure within a closed object. One is to decrease the sizeof the object, the other is to increase the quantity of what is inside. The last is to increase the temperature to a point where the gas particles will move faster, colliding more often and creating a higher pressure inside.

The warrior started to bloat up like a balloon as the air molecules gained more and more energy through the increase of heat. Eventually, it became a huge balloon with inflated arms, legs and, funnily enough, even the sword had turned into something like a balloon. The whole thing had went from being around 6ft tall to 7 almost immediately.

*Boom!*

The balloon/warrior had blown up into a small yet slightly large ball of fire that I extinguished quickly with the snap of my finger.0

Everyone looked at me in shock, Ambrose and my family included. A warrior which would have made everyone's lives harder was simply popped like a balloon through a palm size blue flame.

The other warriors started to swing wildly as Ambrose's control over them started to shake a little. Seeing this, a grin crept up my lips as I used my now blue flames covered wooden long sword to pop the rest of the warriors without much effort.

'I didn't want to use magic, but I guess this will do' I cackled inwardly while watching my sword turning into ash.

Kicking the ground, I appeared in front of Ambrose and smashed my fist into his chest, not too hard of course. If I were to use my full power, I doubt he wouldn't turn into paste on the wall.

He fell on the floor with quite a bit of force, but wasn't knocked out yet. Determination could be seen within his eyes as he continued to crawl away whilst shooting a few air spells towards my face. Of course, I dodged quite easily, even when he tried to create spells behind me..

Creating an air bastard sword that he held within his right hand, he launched himself toward me as a last ditch effort to beat me. I simple side stepped, making his blade completely miss. Looking towards him, a mocking smile came onto my face as if asking him "is this all you've got?".

"Give up! Please just give up!" Begged Elaina while on her knees. Clearly the mark I left in her mind from the time I slammed her face in had not recovered.

"Not very encouraging, don'chya think?" I mused

Dodging the constant barrage from the little child in front of me, I watched his pitiful performance in a state of joy. Watching him try over and over again as I used minimal movements to dodge was doing it for me. A voice inside my head kept telling me maybe punch him a few times and see how he will react, or to torture him a little to check what his soul flame, that is currently in a state of desperation and at the edge of turning into helplessness, would taste like.

Wanting to test out one of them, I decided to throw a left jab toward his face, making him tumble backwards in a backflip. Getting up almost immediately with gritted teeth, while spitting a little blood out before charging towards me again. Seeing him charge again, I smiled ear to ear, wanting to punch him again and again until he loses hope completely and give in to his failures. I wanted to completely break his will, and make sure he would never think about wanting to touch me every again. I'm not against gay people, but the thought of ever being with a man disgusted me slightly.

Using the stadium to construct a stone staff, I swung it towards his air sword, destroying it almost immediately while also blowing him back from the implosion of the win sword. Pointing my index finger toward his leg, a blue flame came into existence at the tip of index finger, making Ambrose's eyes widen slightly. Before he could finally utter the words 'I give up', I shot my burning bullet though his thigh while cauterizing it to make sure no blood would come out.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAhahAHHAH" Screamed Ambrose while holding his thigh.

"Pathetic." I muttered before kicking his face, making him land on the other side of the arena.

-"What is the ref doing?"-

-"Why don't they stop this?"-

A few complains appeared from the crowd, however they were all silenced with Elaina snapping.

"This battle is over!" She said before running towards her child and her holding her in her hands. The priest and the healer from the mission they went on when trying to save me, both ran towards Ambrose.

His wounds weren't too bad, mostly bruises and a few shallow wounds here and there. The only serious wound was the one on his thigh, and even that one wasn't bleeding so it was fine. As much as Elaina wanted to argue, this is what she agreed to, and now her child had paid the consequences for it. She looked towards me with a hateful glare while releasing an amount of killing intent that I had never thought she would posses.

Seeing the killing intent get pointed at me, I only smiled and walked off the stage without reacting a single bit. The only thing I did was smile, which made her even more angry than she already was.

"Anyone who wants to ask for my hand will have to fight me, but if you do choose to fight me, I will not be holding back like I just did." I declared.

Ambrose wasn't weak per say, he has a lot of talent. In this fight I didn't even have a single sliver of struggle except at the start where I wanted to only dodge and not attack.. I'm pretty sure Elaina or even Gen would easily beat Ambrose with a flick of their wrist, but what I did was to send a point to everyone who was about to challenge me.
