BXBX NOVEL Chapter 464: Defeat Shelka
464 Defeat Shelka
Shelka immediately raised her hands before swinging it down.
"Wind Spirit."
A gust of tornado appeared before her hands and transformed into a green ball. Alex immediately activated his Spirit Eyes for this and saw that the green ball and Shelka were connected.
He was wondering whether he could ask Sherry and Kyle to help, but he would try his best first. Alex waved his hands as he summoned a Phoenix out of the blue.
"Fire Phoenix Art, First Stage. Phoenix Summon."
The green ball suddenly moved to the front, charging toward the phoenix. When they clashed, the phoenix immediately engulfed the green ball, burning it into cinders. But Alex suddenly frowned as he could see the green ball started shining before it turned into a huge fire cyclone, reaching the ceiling of the barrier.
If there was not a barrier, this room might be in the complete mess already. The fire cyclone then charged at him.
The arena itself was not that big, only a 25m x 25m square. They did not have that much space to move around to make sure the battle could be concluded within an hour. This was to make it fair to Alex, but it could also be considered as a weapon for Shelka.
After all, the wind might extinguish small fires, but enkindled the strong fire. This was an absolutely perfect counter for Alex\'s strong fire. Alex tried to avoid the cyclone but because of the limited space, he was cornered instantly.
He made a few firebirds to make a few explosions right at the core of the cyclone to destroy the circles. After around a hundred explosions, he finally managed to destroy the cyclone. Even so, the wind was still able to reach him, making a few graze on his body.
"Looking at your technique, what is your relationship with Phoenix Race?" Shelka asked.
"None." Alex just told her the truth.
"Hmm… It seems you are not lying…" Shelka narrowed her eyes as she took out a staff with a wind gem embedded on the staff. She then summoned another one.
"Wind Spirit." This time, the green ball shape-shifted into a wolf and charged at Alex.
"Flame Wave Emission." Alex sent a torrential flame and tried to burn the wind, but it was absorbed by the wind itself.
The wind wolf suddenly turned into a blazing wolf. Alex frowned upon seeing this. He looked at the incoming wolf and tried to shoot it down with his Flame of Extinction.
As soon as he pointed his finger, Shelka smiled as she tapped the ground once with her staff. "Shape-shift end. Original Form."
"!!!" The blazing wolf suddenly turned back into a huge cyclone and engulfed him. The fire was not effective to him, but the wind was dangerous. He could see the wind make a few cuts on his body. He had no choice this time.
Alex took a deep breath as he released his Pure Fire once again to contend with her Pure Wind. This took her a surprise as her wind suddenly burned by the fire. Shelka immediately realized and tried to reinforce her wind, but it was too late. Alex\'s fire had already burned her wind to a crisp.
"!!!" All the people were shocked as this was the first time they saw someone could burn her wind.
Shelka instantly realized what was going on. "This power… Pure Fire Element. You… you are Pure Fire Element."
The others dropped their jaws to the ground, could not believe what they heard. They looked at her with complete silence.
Alex ignored her and pointed his finger toward her.
"Flame of Extinction."
"!!!" Shelka felt danger from that finger and ducked down. It turned out she was right as she took a glimpse of the barrier behind her. The laser that was coming from his finger managed to even melt the barrier that was made by ministers and her father.
After knowing this, Shelka was only filled with joy. She was looking at Alex, like looking at prey.
"Wind Spirit."
"Fire Phoenix Art, First Stage. Phoenix Summon."
They were fighting with their full power at this point. The flame was trying to burn her wind but to no avail. Meanwhile, the wind was also trying to absorb the fire to make a fire tornado but failed. Ultimately, they destroyed each other.
She looked at Alex and smiled. "You are strong. To think you are only 23 years old. As expected of my Supreme!"
The others were shocked when they heard Alex\'s real age. This was an information Shelka kept secret, but because of her excitement, she just blurted it out.
She raised her staff and spun it a few times above her heads. The wind started gathering and made a small red torrential wind right above the staff. The wind kept getting stronger and stronger.
"Fufu… Then, let\'s see how you handle this." Shelka swung her staff down and made a huge sharp twister. "Razor Wind."
The twister charged at him with an unbelievable speed.
"Not good." Alex looked at the twister that suddenly engulfed him.
Everyone thought he would be heavily injured if he were swallowed by this wind. However, Alex completely destroyed their expectation.
The twister was suddenly destroyed, revealing Alex with his sword and spear. His sword was on the ground, proving he just swung that sword while his spear pointed at Shelka. But both of his weapons were covered with his Pure Fire.
He was just trying to search for a loophole in the trial. The elven king said it was a battle against Shelka by using their element. So, as long as he used his element while using his weapons, it should be within the rule. In fact, this was his stronger form, so Alex was completely ready for this.
He said, "You are using a staff, right? Then I will also use mine. I am still using my fire even with these two weapons, so I am not breaking any rule."
"!!!" All the people, except Lilian, had not seen anything like this. They never expected a mage to carry a sword and spear at the same time. They thought even if Alex had a weapon, it would be a staff with Fire Gem on it. But his weapons of choice were beyond their expectations. They also could not complain as he really did not break any rules.
Alex then disappeared from his position before suddenly appearing right in front of Shelka while swinging his sword.
"Heaven Breaking Sword."
"Not good." Shelka tried to block it with her staff while covering it with her wind. When she stood close to it, she could tell how sharp Alex\'s sword was, so if she did not cover it, the staff might be cut by Alex\'s sword.
*Crack*
There was a little cracking sound inside her staff, but the sword did not manage to cut her staff. Even so, Alex used this chance to blow her away.
"Boom!"
She crashed into the barrier. Alex did not give her a chance, so he immediately swung his sword again.
"Seven Stars Cut."
The blazing sword wave was flying toward Shelka. If she did not defend this, she might die. But as expected, Shelka was not that easy.
"Aerial Blade."
She also sent sharp wind blades toward his sword wave, hoping to destroy this sword wave of his.
Sadly, it was too strong. The sword wave destroyed all the blades as Shelka kept making more and more just to destroy this. Finally, after around ten blades, she broke Alex\'s sword wave.
"Wind Spirit."
The green ball appeared once again. Unlike before, the ball immediately turned into a torrential wind before moving toward Alex like a bouncing snake.
Alex shot a blazing arrow from his spear. "Quick Silver."
The arrow exploded when it touched the wind and both of them vanished into thin air.
Shelka did not give up. She spun her staff and shot it again.
"Razor Wind."
Alex was ready to destroy this attack again, but when he saw a green ball inside that wind.
"This might not be good…" Alex muttered. He steeled himself and let the wind engulf him before once again destroying it.
However, Alex had many injuries after he destroyed the wind. Shelka smiled. "That wind just now has my Wind Spirit inside, of course, you won\'t be able to handle it."
Alex did not pay any heed and charged at her wanting to finish this battle as soon as possible.
"There is no choice… Luckily, this is another world." He muttered as he was closing in. Shelka was also making the previous move again, but Alex prevented it even if he needed to reveal his other identity.
He flicked his finger and an array appeared beneath her feet. Many blue whips suddenly rose and entangled her hands, feet, body, and neck. It prevented her from moving.
Alex did not know whether this was considered as using an element, but he indeed used an element in this technique… his Space Element. He used his Space Plate and Spatial Door to make an array suddenly appear.
"Rune Master?" Shelka gritted her teeth as she was surprised by this. She never thought Alex had not only his Pure Fire, weapons, but he was also a Rune Master. Looking at this array, it was Tier 5 King Shackle Rune/Array.
She immediately covered her body with winds and slashed all of the tentacles with her wind, but Alex had arrived in front of her while swinging his sword.
*Fwoosh!*
Alex\'s swords were one inch away from Shelka\'s neck and it was the mark that Alex defeated Shelka in this trial. In other words, Alex was able to defeat the trial.
Shelka was shocked by this result too. She never expected Alex to surprise her one after another and ultimately defeated her. However, there was another feeling that was filling her heart at this moment. It was a feeling of excitement.
Alex was only 2-Star but could defeat her, a 6-Star. He had a Pure Fire Element on top of that. And those swords and spears, as well as his Rune, even made her body feel a chill. She was completely lost to Alex. Because of that, she became more and more interested in Alex.
Alex was truly her \'Supreme\' and with this, the last barrier in her heart finally crumbled. No matter what, she would make this man hers.
As for Lilian, she was completely speechless as this fight was beyond her level. "To think Alexander\'s power was this powerful… He certainly does not need me and the guild. It is a foolish thought of mine to think Alexander needs my protection…"
"No way. Our princess has lost?"
"To a 2-Star Tier 5 Mage to boot!"
"He is still a Tier 5 Rune Master from his Rune alone."
"We can\'t forget about his sword and spear. Why is he using them instead of a staff… but he is far stronger when he uses them."
"The most shocking thing is really his Pure Fire Element. To think we meet another Pure Element. He even manages to melt the barrier for a second."
The ministers were shocked and were discussing Alex\'s power. They felt it was normal for their princess to lose. This showed how absurd Alex\'s power was. Alex had used all of his power to defeat her and he even got a few injuries. Pure Element is really something else.
On the other hand, the elven king had a completely different reaction. He was trembling not because of surprise but shame. She never thought his genius daughter was rendered useless to this 2-Star Tier 5 mage. He wanted to deny the conclusion and said he was cheating by using his sword and spear, but he certainly did not break any rule. He was still using his Fire.
He clenched his fists to the point it was bleeding. He finally announced. "Hum... Alexander Sirius Win."
The ministers were tongue-tied upon hearing his voice as they knew he was angry. He continued, "According to the pact, you are the rightful owner of this crystal and our race would be forbidden to kill you. You shall have this crystal until you are defeated in another trial."
