Chapter 377 Alavenya's Trump Card
"Well, what did you do earlier again?"
This time, the teachers or even Sullivan couldn't contain their shock anymore.
"His wound disappears in an instant?" Filia was speechless. She simply couldn't believe what she was seeing.
"The power of his healing ability is equal to that of a bishop or even higher. And he is only a first-year student. What if he becomes stronger?"
"This is terrifying. Doesn't this mean he won't die unless they're out of Ena or get killed in an instant?"
Sullivan couldn't help but cross his arms. 'This guy has this level of healing ability when he is this weak. Once he grows, his healing ability might be able to regrow a limb. The healing ability alone might be equal to if not surpassing the Pope's Archangel Michael.'
Vivian squinted her eyes. "This is rather surprising. His abilities are more terrifying than I originally thought."
Flora could only smile helplessly. She had seen this when Nathan helped the miners. "Noelle. People are going to come for him after this. We have to keep him in our kingdom."
"You…" Noelle's eyebrows twitched, but she couldn't say a single word after that.
Alavenya's body shook. She had done her best to deliver such a blow, but he easily recovered from it.
'What should I do? Am I going to lose at this rate?' Alavenya started doubting whether she could win or not. After all, Nathan was like an immortal. No matter what she did, she wouldn't be able to defeat him.
At the same time, she didn't know whether her familiars could defeat Nathan's familiars or not.
'My father has been scammed by him, and he is unable to do anything to him. And it's all because of me. As his daughter, there's no way I can accept this… but how? How am I going to defeat him?'
Alavenya bit her lips. A certain memory came to her mind.
When she was fourteen years old, Alavenya couldn't help but ask, "Dad. Even though I haven't summoned my first familiar, I'm able to utilize my Ena. Why are you stopping me from learning the Dragon Martial Arts?"
"No. I'm not stopping you from learning my martial arts."
"But you stop me from learning the Soaring Step."
The Dragon King crossed his arms with a smile on his face. "Listen. The Dragon Martial Art has eight grand techniques. You have learned the Dragon Fist, Dragon Heart, Iron Body, and Instinctual Movement, right?"
"Yes."
"There is a difference between these four and the other four. The ones you learn are created when I just started. The other four were techniques I created when I had become strong. In other words, the requirements for the techniques are much higher. If I teach you these four, you will end up suffering."
"But I want to learn." Alavenya pouted. "I don't care about pain. I just want to get stronger. If Mom were stronger, she wouldn't leave us so soon."
The Dragon King looked at his daughter with a bitter smile. He didn't know what to do when her daughter said it this way.
"Alright. I will teach you, but remember that it puts a toll on your body. If you want to stop, immediately say it to me."
"Un!" Alavenya nodded.
Alavenya couldn't help but smile when recalling this memory. She had never thought she would be pushed back so much that she might have to resort to this.
While looking at Nathan, Alavenya admitted, "You are strong. If we're on the same level, you would have won by a large margin. However, no matter what price I have to pay, you are going to be beaten up."
Nathan's expression turned solemn. Her anger had calmed down.
The Ena in her body erupted but soon gathered on both hands and feet.
Sullivan narrowed his eyes. "Is that…"
Alavenya made a couple of light jumps as if she was preparing herself to leap high.
"Huu…" Alavenya's breath calmed down as she muttered, "Soaring Step."
The Ena on her feet suddenly burst before Alavenya disappeared from the arena.
"!!!" Nathan widened his eyes in shock, unable to follow her movement. For some reason, his body was instinctively raising his left arm.
A split second later, there was a shadow in the corner of his vision. A kick landed on his arm and pushed his arm to the head.
"Eh?" Nathan was startled, but the next thing he realized, his body was already flying toward the wall and crashing into it with power incomparable to her Dragon Fist.
"What happened…" Nathan looked shocked as his pupils shifted to his left arm, which bent in a weird way. Blood covered his right vision and leaked out of his mouth and nose.
"Huh? Did she just hit me?" Nathan was stunned, not understanding what was going on.
"Nathan (Summoner)!" Anubis and Jinwu, who were the nearest to him, panicked. They could sense an extraordinary threat coming from Alavenya. They wanted to help but were stopped by Alavenya's familiars.
The sharp pain struck his mind all of a sudden after his brain registered the damage done to his body.
However, the pain was the last thing to worry about. He hurriedly came out, even if it meant dragging his body out of the wall.
Alavenya hadn't taken another step after that kick. It was because she was enduring excruciating pain. Her feet felt like breaking. In fact, there might already be a crack in her bones.
'Tsk. This pain is nothing. I can still use this nine more times. All I have to do is knock him out within nine moves.' Alavenya gnashed his teeth.
Nathan could feel his wound recovering, but his consciousness was blurry earlier because of a single kick. If not for his instinct reacting to the attack, he would have been knocked out.
'That's beyond fast and powerful. Still, she mentioned 'price' earlier… It seemed the ability also put a huge burden on her body. Although I can defeat her by enduring this, the aftermath will be troublesome. I have to defeat her…'

Nathan sighed. 'Do I really have to use my trump card?'
