(From MC''s perspective)


    Little Star Gate High School,


    Duel Stage,


    I calmed down after a couple of seconds. It''s shocking to know her true strength. But I made up my mind to win this duel.


    When the duel stage was fully covered with a barrier. I immediately felt the freezing wind brush off my face.


    The atmosphere was extremely quiet. Everyone''s gaze fell on us.


    I saw Victoria manifest her ice-cold sword in her hand. A quick glint shed in my eyes. I have a vague feeling that she won''t make the first move.


    Because she might be thinking I''m just a level-1 wizard. So there is no need for her to use level-2 strength.


    Outside,


    The audience maintained pin-drop silence. But it doesn''t stop a few people from makingments.


    "Whom do you think will make the first move?"


    "Nah, I think he will admit defeat."


    "Common, ice queen!"


    "Show us ice sculpture"


    Everyone is waiting for the duel to end. Because nobody thinks Vincent can win.


    Inside,


    Feeling the extreme cold mana releasing from the ice sword. I didn''t even fluster. The next second, I burst out at extreme speed and dashed towards her.


    The audience only saw Vincent Carey disappear from the spot.


    This all happened in a blink of an eye.


    Victoria Shields gripped her ice sword tightly and made a causal swing. The next second, an ice sh was released from the sword.


    Though it''s a casual swing, the ice power is enough to make another ice sculpture.


    At the same time, I''m not nning to reach her.Seeing the ice shing at me, I sidestepped enough to evade the ice attack.


    The next second, a trace of apprehension appeared in my eyes. I decided to use a gravity spell for one second and then cancel it. My gravity power changed after I visited the Gregor mansion.


    Now my power is enough to kill a Level-5 wizard. So I have to be careful while releasing the spell. Then I saw a surprising look from Victoria.


    Seeing that I stopped my movement and uttered, "Gravity Field"


    On the other hand, Victoria made a dumbfounded look. She made a timed attack against Vincent Carey. But he evaded the attack just like that.


    When she ponders, her heart makes sudden palpitations. An ominous premonition hit her heart. Before she realizes what is going on?


    A dreadful pressure hit her body from above.


    "What?" She lost control of her body. Horror shed in her eyes. But due to the above terrible pressure, her body mmed to the ground.


    Pfff


    She coughed up blood and fainted on the spot. Thest thing she saw was the calm face of Vincent Carey. As she lost consciousness, her ice sword weapon also disappeared.


    The next terrible pressure disappeared just like that. This all happened within seconds.


    Seeing the dropped body of Victoria, I sighed in relief. "Fortunately, I managed to cancel the spell in time," I grumbled.


    But I don''t know how many broken bones she has. I hope it''s nothing serious. Good thing though, as she is level-2 rank. If it were someone else he would have died.


    Cold sweat formed on my forehead. But I revealed a satisfied smile on my face. Because I won.


    "Phew!" I took a deep breath.


    Then I turned around to see the crowd. But all of them were frozen like statues. Except for the camera flickering sound, I hear no voice.


    ...


    When the barrier was lifted the final announcement was made.


    [Winner: Vincent Carey]


    Gasp


    The crowd let out a loud cheer in support. Some of the supporters gasped in surprise. This unexpected twist and turn made the media people crazy.


    All of them constantly click on the photos of fainted Victoria. The top dark horse turned out to be more powerful than they had imagined. Nobody knows what happened inside the duel stage.


    People only saw Victoria''s body heavily mmed to the ground. Such unknown means are sacred to everyone.


    "Ice queen, what happened to you?"


    "She fainted all of a sudden"


    "Is she ill or what?"


    "No opponent has used the mysterious magic"


    "Unknown magic my foot!"


    "My poor queen lost the duel"


    One by one people from the crowd made statements. They don''t know how to digest the result. It doesn''t make any sense to them.


    "Hey, do you think he cheated?"


    "Cheat? Against the ice queen it''s impossible?"


    "Then someone can tell me what happened at thest moment."<novelnext></novelnext>


    When someone made thest statement there was pin-drop silence. Everyone here is a wizard but none of them was able to rify at thest moment.


    While this was happening, other parts of the crowd were cheering.


    "Ha....Ha....Ha....."


    "Brother won!"


    Lucas Brad burst intoughter.


    Palmer uttered, "No way."


    Timothy rubbed his eyes to see.


    Even Chrissy Heart revealed a disbelief expression. She asked, stuttering, "is this real or what?"


    "Victoria lost to neer"


    Bruce Hill and Mark Spear looked at each other. Their backs were cold.


    "How did he do it?" Bruce said in his heart.


    Even the always quiet Mark widened his eyes in surprise.


    Simrly,


    Eric Marsh and Judy Owens got up from their seats in surprise. All of the unique wizard students eximed in disbelief.


    "I feel crazy," Eric uttered in surprise. Damn! Who is Victoria? One of the top dogs in the school. She has always maintained good winning records.


    Except for the top, she didn''t suffer from anyone''s hands. But seeing her unconscious body on stage, his eyes expressedplicated emotions.


    "Judy," Then he turned to Judy Owens. She froze like a statue. Seeing that he called out her name again, "Judy Owens."


    Judy Owens recovered from her shock and said, "Sub-taboo magic."


    Hearing that Eric asked again, "What do you say?"


    Judy Owens''s eyes filled with horror. Her expression turned solemn. She retracted her gaze from winner Vincent Carey and looked at Eric Marsh.


    "We all underestimated him. No matter what, he is a Sub-taboo wizard. Every one of us underestimated him as a neer."


    "But he showed the real difference between ordinary ss wizards and sub-taboo wizards."


    Judy Owens is knowledgeable. She quickly exined her thoughts.


    Eric Marsh sucked a cold breath of air.


    He replied, "I heard his magic power is gravity."


    Judy Owens nodded her head.


    Eric said, "Then?"


    Before he could reply, she pointed her fingers at the duel stage and answered, "Look, before losing consciousness, her body was mmed to the ground forcibly."


    "I think it was the result of gravity magic," She added further.


    Eric Marsh was shocked to the core. About Judy Owens, a hint of approval shed in his eyes. He was dumbstruck by the result but Judy was able to conclude what happened.


    Seeing the back of Vincent Carey, a myriad of emotions shed in his eyes. Before the duel, he convinced himself of the gap between him and Vincent.


    But somewhere in his heart, he thought as long as there are avable resources. He can somehow narrow the gap. But after watching this duel, the remaining thoughts also swept away immediately.


    Then suddenly he thought of something and asked, "Judy, what about the top two?"


    "Is there any chance for Vincent to win thepetition?"


    If it was before he wouldn''t have thought like this. But now the idea has be reality. No one said this but this duel was over in seconds just like Vincent''s previous duel.


    But this time Vincent used his mysterious magic. Gravity Magic huh? He doesn''t like normal magic at all.


    When he was lost in thoughts, Judy Owensmented.


    Judy Owens said, "I don''t know?"


    When ites to the top 2 wizards in school. She doesn''t know much. Like their details were ssified. Does she even know what their magic was?


    So she believes it''s highly unlikely to be normal magic.


    Eric Marsh was surprised again but he replied, "Anyway, now I understand the strength of the elite ss."


    The conversation between the two was not loud. It was heard by their ssmates. Thinking about ss A1, admiration rose in their hearts.


    Simrly,


    The ss A division students were shocked to the core. Especially ss A1 and A2. Shock and disbelief saw on their faces. Students from ss A1 stood up from their seats.


    Liam Baker''s leg trembling in fear. He wants to escape from this ce. "Damn, he is pretending to be a pig and acting like a tiger," Liam Baker cried in his heart.


    He is just one step away from wetting his pants. Other ssmates near him noticed his strange behavior. They immediately made a distance away from him.


    Ron Brito gulped his saliva in fear. "Fortunately, he didn''t use his magic against me."


    Now he is quite d that Vincent Kept his hands against him. Then he suddenly thought of something. He muttered to himself, "I don''t know what will happen to that guy?"


    He saw Frank Lambert who was sweating heavily. Seeing this heughed in his heart. Fortunately, there is no enmity between me and Vincent Carey.


    "Impossible"


    "No, it can''t be," Frank Lambert stuttered in fear.


    Victoria failed to win against a neer. This oue he had never even imagined in his dream before. All of this looks like a bad dream to him.


    But the announcement and the crowd''s cheer can''t be faked. The crowd chants the name of the winner. "Vincent Carey."
