NOVEL NEXT Vol 2 Chapter 358: End of the second round
At this point, there is only the last game left in the second round of the brave tournament. Due to Buster’s attack, there was an unprecedented large-scale absence in the second round. Seven nights of Ayu, Seven Wings of Palan, Ulysses’s heroic king Yu Ke, and several other contestants, all bye, entered the third round without any effort.
Fortunately, there was no absence of all the two contestants, which relieved the members of the Magic Guild who had been prepared to remedy the situation.
Next, in the eyes of everyone, the final battle of the second round of this brave tournament kicked off.
The arena randomly selected by the space demon has a scene that Ulysses has known before. In the slowly lingering milky white mist, a huge ancient tree rose from the ground, and the crown of the tree even rushed into the unreachable clouds, as if it was supporting the entire world.
Under the towering trees, is a village whose buildings are all made of plants. In the faint white mist, this quiet small village was filled with a faint smell of green grass, and the lush forest was blown by the breeze, whispering rustling sounds.
Ulysses can't remember exactly when he saw such a scene. It seemed to be in a painting. The painting seemed to describe the legendary story of the fairy clan in ancient times.
It just so happened that among the two people who entered this arena, there was a high-level fairy with pointed ears, a beautiful oval-shaped face, and a pair of bright big eyes.
This fairy named Nari is a member of the guard of His Highness Kira who is about to inherit the Chiba Staff, the guardian responsible for the future of the fairy clan. As an elite selected to guard the future guardian of the fairy clan, she naturally possesses good combat power.
However, she would not know how terrifying the girl who was standing in front of her casually in a green sleeveless skirt was.
"Huh, that goblin is going to be unlucky." In the lounge of the Demon King's Maid Team, Hydra looked at the big tree boredly.
She knew the result of this battle without even having to look at it. For Saya, who possesses two extreme powers, the goblin who is good at the power of nature is nothing but food. The result of using natural magic in front of Saya is as ridiculous as the dog-headed necromancer who was eaten by his necromancer.
"Meow, it's time to go back and prepare dinner." Kana, who was not too cold at this brave meeting, shook his tail lazily. The matter of fighting and killing should be left to this unreasonable big snake, the noble and elegant Kana is not a violent maniac.
"Very beautiful scenery!" Nari, who didn't know what kind of horrible existence she was facing, smiled and looked at the beautiful scenery. For her practicing natural magic, such a vibrant environment is her favorite environment.
On the ground surrounded by prosperous plants, she can exert all her strength. This beautiful nature is her best comrade-in-arms. Here, her strength is the strongest.
"Beautiful...is here..." Saye took off a white flower beside her, and happily tore off the tender petals one by one. This was one of her favorite games.
"People who don't respect the beauty of nature will eventually be punished by nature." Seeing the other's actions, Nari showed an expression of discomfort. He immediately raised his hands and began to summon the power of nature.
On her hands, there are a pair of emerald green wrist wheels carved with countless plant patterns. This is her treasure, the crystallization of natural magic power transformed by her flower of life-the turquoise wheel.
After putting her hands together, Nari began to feel everything around her. Under the radiance of the turquoise wheel, the frequency of her breathing and heartbeat had an incredible change, as if she had merged with the lush forest around her.
I could feel the flow of the surrounding air and the breathing of those trees and flowers. This is a world she is familiar with, a world ruled by the power of nature.
Will not lose, because this is her home court! Belongs to her world.
Saya casually looked at the fairy that had begun to merge with the surrounding environment. This state of being called the spirit of nature in natural magic seemed to her to be just a joke.
She stepped on the ground with her little feet, and a certain power that belonged to her spread across the forest, directly cutting off the contact between the opponent and the forest.
Nari, the fairy who had already entered a strange state, immediately opened her eyes, showing an expression of disbelief.
Her connection with nature was severed! No, to be precise, the whole nature rejected her. After the opponent moved randomly, the whole world changed.
The forests, lakes, and air that were originally full of tranquility have all changed. A feeling that made people want to vomit hit Nari's whole body, as if all the plants had turned into monsters, watching her greedily, trying to swallow her.
What is this feeling, how is it possible! Nari's whole body was trembling violently. She had never thought that someone could do this kind of thing. Although, from the outside, the lush trees and flowers are still the same. However, in her sense, the entire forest, including grassland, creek, and underground plants, was completely different from just now.
Her precious gem, the turquoise blue wheel, possesses the power to communicate with nature, so she can feel the abnormal changes more clearly than anyone. Without any warning, this entire forest has become a monster, a monster that eats human beings.
...
"Hmm..." A feeling of uncontrollable vomiting began to erupt from Nari's chest, just because she was perfectly fused with nature just now, she could feel the abnormal change even more. That kind of difference is like a beautiful flower that could have been appreciated with a happy mind, suddenly turned into a piranha that devours countless flesh and blood.
"What... did you..." Although it was only a short moment, the nausea of that beautiful thing suddenly transformed into a monster had already invaded Nari's whole body. She had never felt the feeling that the whole world was full of greed and murder towards her, or under the premise that this energetic world had accepted her not long ago.
"It just changed the forest here...Do you want to be eaten..." Saye walked easily to Nari, stretched out her right hand, and stroked her smooth face.
Terrible... terrible person... She is not a human being! For the first time, Nari felt this feeling of being toyed with in the palm of her hand. All of her power could not be used in front of Saya. In her eyes, the entire forest had completely turned into a huge monster, driven at will by the girl in the green, swallowing all lives. She is now the prey targeted by this monster, a prey that can't even resist.
This feeling was only felt when she encountered an evil man-eating plant when she was very young. But even that time, there was no such strong sense of fear. The coldness of the whole body, as if she would be eaten right away, made her tremble.
The turquoise wheel on both hands still exudes a soft brilliance, but at this moment, it can't do anything. The treasure used to communicate with nature, and then use the power of nature to complete the ever-changing attacks, has completely lost its ability. All the plants around here have become something else under Saya's power, desperately eager for flesh and blood, like a monster that is horrible like a devil.
Here, it was no longer the forest she was familiar with; it was the forest of death that was filled with demons and was manipulated by the girl in front of her.
It's going to be eaten... The moment Saya's hand stroked Nari's face, Nari's back was drenched with a lot of sweat. Although Saya actually didn't even attack once, the feeling of being surrounded by huge monsters and peeping has already made her close to collapse.
"Implanted..." Saya's hand gently pressed Nari's chest, and the seeds of something entered Nari's body through Saya's hand, and soon began to take root in Nari's body. That is a very interesting plant, it can be regarded as the finished product of recent research. As for how to use it in the future, this is not a question Saya has to think about.
For Saya, everything in this world can only be divided into "fun" and "boring". She doesn't have the concept of good and evil in the human sense, and she doesn't need to follow that kind of thing. She only does what she is interested in, just like planting seeds for the little fairy at will now. She enjoyed the interesting process more than the result.
Nari's consciousness was blurred, as if she felt something, but she didn't know what it was. Then, she lost consciousness completely and fell to the ground. With her body as nourishment, some kind of new-born plants began to grow vigorously in her body. What kind of flowers will bloom, even Saya doesn't know now.
The final result of the game was of course Saya's victory, which also announced the end of the second round of the Brave League. Tomorrow will be a day when the battle will be more intense.
