Chapter 160: Chapter 160: A Stark Contrast



Of course, there were heated battles on this side too, but it paled in comparison as most of them diffused quite easily.

The early awakening of the boss monster had served as a beacon for everyone to gather, prompting them to swiftly end their fights.

As seconds turned into minutes, the candidates swarmed toward the boss area.

The two girls having green and pink hair were hiding and observing respectfully, the latter recognizing her limits.

She was similar to those who allowed themselves to be eliminated instead of hindering their leader\'s progress.

Except she was stronger than them and reached the place by her own strength—or perhaps by luck.

As she was regulating her breathing so as to minimize her presence the figure of a beautiful elven girl came into view.

The first to arrive was Sylvie, who casually strolled around the area, using her vine to test the boss monster\'s reaction.

After gauging its speed to exceed her current limits, she pushed herself away from its range, using her vine as a footing.

\'Who\'s she? She\'s really skillful,\' thought the pink-haired, wary of another girl being stronger than her.

She didn\'t know yet, but she was in for a big surprise, about to see ten or even more girls stronger than herself.

Slowly, her expressions fell after the appearance of Vivia, Ava, Caera, Levi, Lyra, Rura, Freira, and lastly, Ziva.

The pink-haired girl clenched her fist reflexively at the sight of the black-haired girl walking casually with a bloodied weapon in hand.

\'No, I can\'t go down,\' she reminded herself, firming her mind and controlling her trembling arms.

It wasn\'t fear exactly, but more of a primal emotion at the sight of someone far stronger than oneself.

While she was busy restraining herself and keeping herself in check, the green-haired girl had eyes flickering with coldness.

She had a cold expression on her face, as if she put none of them in her eyes but even she felt uneasy at the sight of Ziva.

Only until Ziva greeted Ava and Caera, recognizing the two and nodding at Rura, having slight remembrance of her.

However, it was just a polite gesture, she wasn\'t going to hold back as neither would want her to go easy on them, even if everyone wanted the First Rank.

In truth, the rank didn\'t really get decided based on this one fight, but encompassed everything since the beginning.

It just so happened that no one knew about such a thing, so they could only make assumptions and give their best, based on them.

And to prove their strength to themself as well as their families, they began channeling mana.

No words or any war calls were needed as the fight was inevitable and the boss monster was not something one of them could take down.

Unlike the boys with inflated egos, most girls here had gotten put down by someone or the other, having faced defeat.

That moment of defeat redefined their pride and arrogance, allowing them to not lose their thinking ability.

Well, mostly.

Despite it being an unspoken agreement, there was no way anyone would comply to the end.

After all, what if defeating the boss monster was the key to securing Rank 1?

Due to such a deduction, it was going to happen somewhat similar to the other side.

They had channeled their mana, Vivia, Caera, Lyra and Rura casting spells while the rest got ready to engage in a melee.

Of course, they attacked from their own positions, as no coordinated teamwork existed due to a lack of trust.

But there were exceptions to it, Caera helped Ziva and Ziva agreed to protect her and Rura, just in case something happened.

Being dragged along obviously didn\'t feel good, but Rura accepted the bittersweet feeling, knowing that was the best option for her.

Just like them, Sylvie and Ava were coordinating with their eyes, leaving Freirae, Vivia and Lyra to be solo.

Of course, Levi gritted her teeth, feeling her pride being hurt and decided to attack the boss monster at will, not caring about anyone else.

\'She should at least keep her guard up,\' Zive lamented Levi\'s stupidity before focusing on her own attack.

Her eyes narrowed at the boss monster\'s eye as she moved faster than anyone else or before any spell could be cast.

Using a strange movement art, she dodged the water balls, and water spikes shot by the boss monster at her.

In one go, she reached the boss monster\'s body as spells landed on it, and she used that chance to climb it.

Before the others could even reach the boss monster, she let her sword separate and puncture its eyes.

Alas, it was not stupid.

It flailed around, moving his head and saving one of its eyes and Ziva managed to injure the other eyes.

"GUAAAAARRRRHHH!" The monster shrieked in pain as its body moved erratically, pushing Ziva off it, but she landed with a summersault.

Sadly, the others had to bear the brunt of the water waves caused by the monster\'s crazy movements as it attacked with reckless abandon.

At that exact moment, Lyra took charge, controlling the situation with her water element affinity.

Of course, she could only dampen the force and divert it, not fully conquer it and reverse the attack.

She was strong, yes, but not at the same crazy level as the monster.

Being slightly lacking to be a Mid E-Rank hunter surely helped her gain a footing and gave her the courage to stand alone against the monster.

"Nice," The melee fighters either said, mumbled, or thought it before using the gaps to close in and attack the boss monster.

Unlike them, Ziva shied away from attacking, choosing to seize a perfect chance rather than try her luck.

Fortunately, spells like Fire Tornado, Earthen Spikes, and Light Blinding arrived, further angering the monster.

Poor stimulated monster never thought it could be defeated so systematically!

Of course, comparing this to the mismatch, disarray and chaos in the boys\' battle would be nothing short of crazy.

"Look, didn\'t I say it would be worth it? Just trust me," Rui shouted as the battle ended faster than the boys\'.

Those who had been teleported out and wanted to see the conclusion were now filled with embarrassment upon seeing the scene.

As if to point it out, the screen divided into two, showing both in parallel.

Poor boys didn\'t even get any consolation prize, and only got embarrassed for trying their best to gain victory.

Well, the ones who participated in the last battle had downtrodden expressions, unable to accept their defeat.

Though, Caeron was a full exception, not feeling a single shred of sadness for losing, rather he was glad to have made it thus far.

Similar to him, Amael had a wide smile on his face as the system had told him that getting second position would result in more Villain Points.

That had caused him to make a mistake, not on purpose, and surprisingly, Jash exploited that and defeated him.

"The academy, huh? It will be interesting," he muttered to himself, but the system chimed in.

{Hadn\'t I said that already, host?}

\'Yeah, yeah, sure,\' Amael replied, rolling his eyes at the shameless system.
