BXBX NOVEL Chapter 60: It Is Almost Like Looking At Her Eyes
As James looked at the woman in front of him he saw that she was not tired in the slightest, even if he was a little tired himself he still had no intention of backing down, he was certain that there was a way for him to defeat the woman in front of him, Ariel.
He hadn\'t used Selene\'s Throwing Knife yet, and there were plenty of other things he could throw or restrain Ariel with, it was just that almost everything hhe could use needed a little bit of waiting.
After all, he couldn\'t shout "STOP FIGHTING I WILL PUT TRAPS!" at Ariel, could he?
"I\'m not tired, Madam Ariel, don\'t worry," James suddenly said, completely lying, although he wasn\'t very tired, after 22 consecutive battles he was now on his 25th battle, or rather duel.
It was impossible not to be tired fully tired.
He took out an "Energy Potion" from his inventory and then planted it on his head, such potions were not forbidden in the tournament as there were alchemist warriors in the tournament and it was for everyone\'s benefit.
James hadn\'t consumed any of the potions so far, as he saw such things as cheating.
"Look at that, you\'re not tired hahaha!"
Ariel burst out laughing when she saw the potion James was drinking, of course, no one would expect James not to be tired. After all, everyone realised that he had already achieved a huge amount.
No one would duel like an idiot, it would increase their chances of dying, and that was exactly why none of them wanted to be in such danger. After all, this was known as the arena of death, James may have only killed one person, but thousands would die and perish every day that passed in the arena.
That made Ariel not angry, after all, what James had done was like being normal in an abnormality, she couldn\'t be angry with him.
"Forgive my rudeness, I just got to the 10th floor, you know, I don\'t have such great endurance, unfortunately," James said, obviously embarrassed.
"You don\'t have to stop like that, if you\'ve recovered, let\'s continue, it\'s time to finish this, I believe we\'ve already passed an hour." Ariel suddenly said this and seemed to tell James that the woman in front of him was seriously going to use everything.
James was kind of scared in a way, he really couldn\'t even tell what kind of rating he had on how much he respected the woman in front of him.
It was at that moment that James agreed with Ariel that he needed to use everything he had. He wanted to revive that strange light that burned in his body and soul, and after only a few seconds he seemed to lose himself. It was almost like he was in a trance.
The light inside him flared up and the aura of James\' sword spread through his body again, but this time something was different, a difference that no one had expected.
Not only Ariel but the whole arena and even the gods watching them noticed this difference... James\' aura was burning with a colourful flame. Everyone in the realm of the gods was astonished, it seemed like they hadn\'t seen such a powerful flame for a long time.
"What the hell is that?" asked Ariel herself, and her eyes were transfixed on the aura around James, like a moving portrait.
James\' aura was burning with colourful flames, mostly dark, with an air of dominance that seemed to command those around him to retreat and flee. Even Ariel couldn\'t help but be excited by this flame.
After that, Ariel was surrounded by aura just like James, but this time the layer of aura was incredibly thick, so thick that Ariel\'s fists were practically invisible in the aura.
However, James\' aura was no ordinary aura, his aura was an aura with magic in it, something unprecedented and never existed before.
It was something with no known weaknesses or advantages, and James had somehow managed to use it, as if he wanted to crush the woman in front of him, without killing her of course.
With that, the duel was reignited.
With a single step, James had disappeared from where he had been and swung Clarent from the bottom up as if he were slashing, and the moment the sword struck Ariel\'s aura, a gigantic source of light appeared in the arena.
The depth of the flames from James\' attack and the depth of Ariel\'s aura had collided so perfectly that they created the brilliance of light, a sight so perfect that there was no way to explain it.
Each collision revealed a different colour of light and the flames that spread around the arena from James seemed to resemble a battlefield.
"YOU ARE AMAZING UMBRA!!! I\'VE NEVER ENJOYED FIGHTING SO MUCH IN MY LIFE!!!" shouted Ariel suddenly, no one expected to hear those words but it was clear that they loved what they were hearing, it gave everyone watching goosebumps.
It seemed like it was time for this duel to end.
The aura around Ariel suddenly exploded and sent James flying several metres, he hit the arena floor with all his weight and looked at the woman in front of him.
A huge smile formed on his face, he was so, so happy to have met one of the most wonderful people he had ever met in his life.
However, he was also aware of the weight of his body, this attack would be the last for both of them and the outcome would decide the fate of the duel.
Ariel had given James enough time to get to his feet, she could indeed be one of the most honourable female warriors in existence, in James\' eyes she was no different in honour to Nemesis.
Focusing on Ariel after she stood up, James uttered the following words before making his final move:
"It\'s as if I\'m looking at Nemesis herself, though she is a hundred times more beautiful, but I see the same warrior eyes, I can\'t tell you how sweet it feels!"
