SSS SKILL: DUPLICATE

220  Tournament's Final(2)

KNIGHT OF TIARA

Whoosh! The seven-meter lightning knight suddenly appeared near Edgar, then stabbed its lance.

Edgar turned around in the air and swung his spear. The lightning knight disappeared and dodged the ice blade, then appeared on Edgar's side and attacked.

Edgar turned around again as he put more ice energy into his spear, but Alex suddenly appeared and stabbed his lance.

Edgar jumped up with a somersault.

Boom! He accelerated from the air and attacked, but Alex was able to dodge. Edgar's spear hit the floor.

ICE MAGIC: NORTHFIELD

Crunch! A wide area of the floor around Edgar was turned into ice, but the lightning knight jumped up and avoided his feet from getting trapped in the ice, then it attacked from the air.

LANCE OF TIARA

BOOM! A huge lightning lance attacked Edgar and broke the whole ice. It also caused a hole on the stage.

Edgar jumped up, but he was suddenly attacked by Alex. A lightning unicorn turned into a lance and hit Edgar.

Bang! Edgar blocked the lance with the body of his spear, but he was rapidly pushed back. The lightning knight appeared behind him and was ready to strike.

Edgar stepped on ice in the air. He shifted his gravity and redirected the lance as he turned around his body, but the lance of the knight was already near him.

WATER GLOBE

Bang! A rotating water globe blocked the lance. Lightning was flickering as the knight tried to puncture the globe. Smaller water globes were formed and attacked the knight. They were exploding upon contact.

Alex was in the air, spreading his arms. There was a huge circle above him.

"Iceman, being a turtle will not help you escape from my attacks,"said Alex with a chuckle.

ART OF TIARA: LIGHTNING JUDGMENT

Oom! A huge lightning beam fell from the circle.

BOOM! It destroyed the huge water globe and caused a big hole on the stage.

Edgar was in the air. He was able to dodge the powerful beam, but Alex expected it.

The lightning knight stabbed its lance, but Edgar jumped up as he added more ice energy to his spear.

ICE SPEAR: TEAR DROP

CRUNCH! A huge, sharp ice stabbed the floor. The lightning knight dodged the attack, but Edgar predicted where it would move.

Edgar was quickly moving in the air. He threw a huge rotating water sphere in his right hand.

WATER BOMB

BOOM! It hit the body of the lightning knight and exploded. The knight was blown away.

Alex suddenly attacked in the air, but he missed. Edgar turned around to his side as an ice spear formed in his hand.

ICE BLADE

Bang! Alex blocked the ice energy blade with the body of his lightning lance, but he was being pushed back.

Huge magic circles appeared behind Edgar, then many ice spears were coming out.

Alex chuckled when he saw the ice spears."Iceman, you are a worthy opponent."

Lightning energy covered his body.

KNIGHT SYNC

The knight turned into many lightning bolts and rapidly flew to Alex. They destroyed the ice blade and protected him from the ice spears that were attacking from the air. They kept rotating around Alex and molded into a ten-meter-tall lightning knight.

"He really is a talented man. That kind of magic is cast by a 6th circle, but it usually requires a very strong body to bear the pressure, so peak third level in aura is necessary, but Alex is only at third level. The pressure will decrease a lot if a hyperbeing has excellent control of mana and the magic element. My control of mana and magic elements has been honed very well in the virtual world and my illusion for many years, so I could use sync magic with ease even though I am still in third level. The dragon guard's control has also been trained in the illusion for many years, but Alex doesn't have that kind of advantage," thought Edgar.

BANG! Alex suddenly appeared in front of Edgar and stabbed his lance, but his sudden attack was blocked with the body of the ice spear.

They seemed to be rapidly flying as Alex pushed Edgar with his lance. A crack appeared on the body of the spear, then it totally broke. The tip of the huge lance with crackling lightning was moving toward Edgar's body.

BOOM! Edgar crashed to the ground. The tip of the lance was near his body, but the lance was stopped by a huge water arm with an armor made up of ice. The arm had risen from a huge circle on the ground. A huge figure was rising from the circle. Half of the body of the figure came out. It looked like a warrior made up of water wearing ice armor.

"That was a dangerous attack,"said Edgar with a chuckle.

"YEAAAHHH!" There was a loud cheer from the audience.

"Oooh! Iceman is pushed off the stage, but Alex's lance is also outside the stage! How will the referee judge the situation?!"

Malik smiled while he was looking at Iceman and Alex. He thought,"That magic should be consuming a lot of Alex's mana, so he should only be capable of maintaining it for a short time. If Iceman is also capable of sync magic, then Alex will definitely lose. If I delay a little more time, the more Alex will consume his mana. Hahahaha, I'm so smart."

"Cough-Cough, this is a bit hard to decide," said Malik."The lightning lanc-"

"I accept my loss," Edgar suddenly said, cutting off what Malik wanted to say.

Malik was speechless. His face was turning ugly as he cursed in his mind."Fuck you, Iceman! You should have let me finish what I want to say for both our sake, idiot!"

Rancel was laughing when he heard Iceman, while Vistal looked stern.

"It seems we need to execute Plan B," thought Vistal.

Malik's face looked like he had eaten a fly as he raised his right hand."Alex.... win."

"YEEEAHHH!" There was a deafening cheer in the arena.

"We have a champion! We have a king of the island! ALEX DALTON!!!"

The cheer in the arena became stronger.

The knight turned into threads of lightning energy as Alex floated down. The huge figure behind Edgar was turned into vapor and floated away.

Alex was a little panting. He looked in the direction of Mari and waved his hand, causing more cheers. Then he looked at the drone."Who wants to buy a piece of land? I'm not interested in becoming the king of an island. I want to turn that land into cash and donate to charity and victims of Poison Guild."

High-level members of the Poison Guild had different facial expressions, but most of them felt angry. Vistal's eyes turned sharper. Madam Lisa smiled. Karan was laughing, but there was strong bloodlust in his eyes while he was watching in the mansion.

Edgar left the arena, avoided the prying eyes, and moved to a place where there were no people. Then he teleported. He appeared in an underground room with faint lights and a space point. The underground was located on an island in the far north of Palawan. Then Edgar teleported again to another province of the country. The space point had a limited distance. He could not teleport directly from Palawan Island to the capital region.

He teleported again and arrived at an underground space near a restricted area. His outfit was changing as he walked to the stairs. His mask also changed, then his hair turned long and red. An opening appeared on the ground, then Edgar flew out. A camouflage cloaked his body.

In a restricted area, there was a huge valley. The soil and rocks were tinge with red color due to a mutation. Below the valley, there were scattered huge rocks. There were men sitting on five-meter-tall rocks while the others were on the ground roasting a two-meter-tall boar hanging on red pillars made with earth magic.

"Boss, the harvest this time is good. It's a good time to celebrate, but too bad that we can't do whatever we want to do because the government is watching us too closely," said one of the men.

Their boss was a man with an earring and tattoos on both arms. The man chuckled. He smoked and said,"PHA is now like a dog that will pounce on us once they sniff something that smells like shit. They can't tolerate heinous crimes in the area under their control. They can tolerate our existence because they still need us to clear higher levels of broken worlds and because of the deterrence of our main branch.

We need the resources from the broken world, and they need us to clear them, so it's a win-win situation, but we are no longer irreplaceable. There is a boundary to their tolerance. The main branch and government seem to be forming a tacit understanding. The government won't touch us if we follow the new rules they are setting, and the main branch won't be able to help us if we break those rules. The government has a bigger fist right now, so we have to lay low. If you want to have fun, wait until you can visit the island. Their underground arena has many toys hahahaha!"

The sun was moving to the west. A big shade was formed below the valley, then Edgar appeared. He was standing on top of the valley while he was covered with a red cloak. A circle appeared and moved up from his feet. His outfit changed into a ninja, with a silver mask on his face and a rapier on his hand. He looked at the poison guild members with a smile.

"It's time to start the show."
