Chapter 725 - The Second Event III
The fight between the six teams became the biggest anticipation of all the people. United Kingdom Versus Germany which is the battle between the knights and Poets and Thinkers. The national team of the United Kingdom is even known for their leader Pendragon.
The other members also have the motif of the members of the round table, and they are even named after them. They even have a mage with the name Merlin. The United Kingdom team consists of Pendragon, Merlin, Galahad, Tristan and Siegfried, who is the Infernum Guild Master.
Pendragon wields two broadswords like it is nothing. Merlin is able to control all elemental types of magic which is a great feat as very few mages could use all the elements. She is definitely considered one of the best mages in the game if her level is not considered.
Siegfried wields a large sword that can cleave a man\'s head with ease. Tristan wields a bow and is the sharpshooter of the group. Galahad wields a shield and spear, and he seems to be a cavalry user as his armor is more in that direction. Even though his mount is unavailable due to the restriction, he is still sturdy and fast enough to deal deadly damage to others.
On the German National Team, there are two mages, one mechanic, and one sniper, and a guardian. The Two mages are Faust from the Infernum Guild and a ranker named Eis who is said to be dubbed as the \'Frost Queen\' for she is the one that inherited the half Jotunn\'s power.
Their mechanic is also known as a ranker that can create anything as long as he is supplied with the materials. One of the infamous Gnome mechanics in the game, Zahnrad. The sniper that is said to never miss her target, the gnome sniper named Witwe. The guardian of the team who is also the captain, Schutz.
"It seems that we cross paths for this competion, Guild Master." Faust stated as he is looking at all the opponents in the other team. He is knowledgeable of everyone of them because they are rankers with different goals yet have the same naming sense.
The only one that seemed lost in the naming sense for the United Kingdom Team is Siegfried, but his real name is actually Gawain. Even the United Kingdom team is a bit wary of the German team because they have two tacticians on their side which is Faust and Eis.
"This is for the glory of my country, Faust. Even if it is you then I will not easily back down. After all, the ones closest to you are the most dangerous when they become enemies." Siegfried stated as he held his soluna.
"I am wary of you two, guild master. That means that we will not back down from this fight." Faust stated as his whole body got covered by a bright orange aura.
Merlin did not wait for anyone to signal her as she already unleased a thick fog that suddenly covered the area. Adrian then remembered who that woman named Merlin is. She looked very familiar as she is definitely the one beside Emrys back then when they visited him in Avalon.

"That is actually Merlin! I am a big fan!" Jade suddenly squealed as she could see her idol on stage more now unlike in the first round.
"You know her?" Marlon asked as he is not that invested in mage players, but he has heard of Merlin.
"She is the only player that can easily wield the four basic elements without the aid of magic stones. She has perfect mastery over them and would sometimes fuse the elements together to form different spells with different effects.
Apparently, she could also use the spell \'Blink\' but that is only rumors as of now since no proof has been presented. It is like she is loved by the elementals as she could wield magic of four different elements without a care for the causes." Jade answered.
"It is not that she is loved by the elementals but because she is different and not really a human player." Adrian suddenly stated which made Jade look at him with all seriousness as her best friend just suddenly accused of Merlin as lying. She has told in some interviews that her character race is none other than human.
"What do you mean that she is not human? She herself has told us, her fans, in an interview that she is of the human race. She just happens to have the blessing of the four elements which is why she could handle the four elements well. It takes a lot of mental capacity to even wield the elements." Jade stated as she actually likes Merlin as a fellow mage.
"Well, she probably lied during that interview. Let me ask how you a dragon or rather a Ryujin can control the elements?" Adrian asked an intriguing question which made all of those who play Pandemonium listen to him. Even the attendant working for their VIP booth that is quietly waiting for orders is listening attentively.
"The Ryujin are dragons which makes us bend the elements to our will and shape it with the shape that we so desire. We control the elements unlike her that can get the element\'s love which is why her mana usage on spells are halved which has been proven by other mages that got a contract with an elemental." Jade stated.
"You are correct about dragons bending the elements to their will. She is doing the same, but she has already gotten their permission beforehand. After all, even in the game, there is no mage that can wield all the elements except one mage from the fallen empire." Adrian hinted which made those that know of the imperial mage shout.
"Are you saying that she is like Emrys? She is a half-demon?" Marlon asked as Adrian pointed them at that direction.
"Half demons also have a core, but their human side also affected them. They could wield arcane magic but never beyond Blink and Teleportation. They did get something very important and that is the ability to wield all kinds of elemental magic freely.." Adrian stated which now made sense that a player could wield all elements despite there only being one NPC to ever do so in history.
