Fight II

Kaiser calmly stepped into the clearing.

His expression remained relaxed as the remaining Spectral Blades floated silently behind him.

The injured student stared at him in surprise.

"So it was you."

Kaiser gave a small nod.

"Yes."

The student tightened his grip on his sword.

"You attacked me from behind."

Kaiser met his gaze without the slightest change in expression.

"This is a battle royale."

"There aren't any rules saying I have to announce my presence first."

The student clenched his jaw.

"You..."

Without another word, he charged.

Death Mana surged around his blade as he swung it at Kaiser.

Kaiser didn't move.

Three Spectral Blades shot forward.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The ghostly swords intercepted every strike before forcing the student's weapon aside.

Not wasting a second, the student cast another spell.

Dark spikes erupted from the ground beneath Kaiser.
