Ba... Thump! Ba... Thump! Evelyn felt her heart beat out of her chest as she faced Julien's whose expression remained the same. His deep hazel eyes looked right at her, seeping into the corners of her mind. His gaze was intense. Evelyn felt suffocated by his gaze. But she resisted. With her head raised, she looked straight at him. This was not the right time. She understood this, but when was ever the right time? She had been longing to say this for quite a while now, never finding the…-

From the very moment that the match started, I kept my gaze on the platform, never once leaving my eyes away from the sight that stood before me. At least that was how it looked on the outside. In reality, my attention was elsewhere. ....It was toward my mind. 'Where are you...?' Within the darkness that was my conciseness, I looked around in search of the seed that the statue planted within my mind. 'I know you're here somewhere.' It had always been there, secretly waiting for an…

"He's waking up, move away." After noticing a change in Caius's heartbeat, Theron shoved the nurse aside and moved closer to Caius who was lying down on a soft bed. His eyelids twitched and soon opened, revealing his soft yellow eyes. Adjusting to the light, they twitched for a brief moment before dimming. Theron's expression changed the moment he laid eyes on Caius. They looked so... Lost. The room fell into a strange silence as neither party spoke. Eventually, the silence was broken…

Coming out of the apartment I felt incredibly refreshed. The warm and humid air didn't seem to bother me like it usually did. Touching my face to make sure that my disguise was perfect, I headed for the Colosseum. In all honesty, there was no need for me to touch my face. My disguise comprised of an illusion. ... It's just as packed as yesterday.' There was a long line at the entrance of the Colosseum that stretched very far. I took one glance at the line before heading for the private…

Slowly but surely, as the shock from the fight died down, the audience started to leave the stands and head back home. It was strangely quiet as the people left, nobody talking or sharing any excitement that was usually present after a fight. Evidently, everyone was still in shock from the result of the fight. I watched silently as everyone left the venue before changing my appearance and heading for my apartment. Couldn't have the people see my face... That would be rather…

Chapter 348: Shock “How long has it been since the two stopped moving?” Karl asked, his eyes fixed on the platform which had grown extremely quiet. All eyes were on the two contestants who stood on opposite ends, their faces and expressions frozen as they looked at each other. Despite neither side doing anything, tensions ran high. In the silence, everyone waited… Everyone waited for the inevitable shift that would occur. Whoever came out on top was going to most likely be the winner. Karl…

To excel above all others. This was what it meant to be best. Caius was the best. He knew he was the best. He.... Had to be the best. Веер...! Вееер...! The dark world shattered, giving way to the same white void. It crept into every corner, consuming all in its path. ....It felt empty. A soft, relentless 'beeping' sound began to echo through the emptiness Caius stood in silence, looking around. '....I don't want to break you.' Julien's words rang powerful in his…

How much time has passed since the start of the match...? "Haa... Haa..." Despite Julien's best attempts at keeping his breath steady, he was unable to. His mind was buzzing and his vision was slightly blurry. He was a lot more exhausted than he had originally anticipated. While his mana reserves were still fine, it was his physical exhaustion that was rendering him helpless. The 'Concepts' used a lot of stamina. Not only that, but their strain on his body was not light at all. his…

Bang! Unlike the first time, Julien's speed was visible to the naked eye. He didn't use the green orb like he did at first. The strain on his legs was far too much for him to bear. He could use the skill at most two more times before his legs would give out on him. He had to be careful when using the skill. Perhaps in the future, he'd be able to fully utilize the green and red orbs, but for now, he could only utilize them in quick and short bursts that would ease the strain that his body…

"Well, here we are." Karl's voice quietly echoed as his eyes were fixed on the two individuals standing in the middle of the platform. The air was tense, and he felt his throat grow dry. Taking a small sip, he introduced the two sides. "On the right, we have the favorite of this Summit and the young man who is regarded as the strongest genius amongst the four empires. He's a user with talent in the category, in both and magic." Karl's voice was the only thing that the listeners could…
