33. Duel (1)
Purple gloomily stood in the shadows on the edge of the arena.
Despite her strong resistance, Anne's purple, which was far inferior to her physical skills, was forced to put on the clothes she chose, and then trained for an afternoon, although he threw the clothes away afterwards, but the whole person was not good.
How could Teacher Anne have such a bad hobby, his appearance was born and he didn't want to change, but what kind of mentality is it to force his disciples to wear clothes he doesn't like!
Thinking of this, Purple had a headache, but fortunately, Anne was only interested in coming suddenly, and there was no intention of continuing, otherwise Purple might have considered whether to escape from the clock tower in advance.
The uproar on the sidelines grew louder.
Looking up, the audience has gradually found their seats, in the front row and in the center, are all older magicians, solemn expressions, neat and heavy clothes, sitting in the seats without anger and self-authority, obviously the aristocratic rulers who have held high positions for a long time, and the more magicians on the edge of the seats, the more shabby they look.
In the arrangement of the seats alone, clear boundaries are drawn.
Purple searched the crowd and quickly found Anne's location.
Anne's seat was close to the center, and she nodded when she met Purple's gaze.
Purple's dissatisfaction was dispelled a little, and although she was not worried about the comparison, she could also be comforted by having someone close to her.
However, despite this, the number of people who came to watch the duel far exceeded Purple's expectations, knowing that the duel was only a grudge between Kenneth and Purple, and the notary had decided, but there were still so many magicians who left their research and study work to come to watch, and this kind of treatment was treated as a rare animal performance...... It's unpleasant.
And I'm afraid that most magicians want to see how he was humiliated under Kenneth's men, so that it may ease the jealousy and anger that have accumulated for generations due to the loss of magic.
A group of stubborn and rotten aristocrats.
Purple moved her muscles, the audience was almost here, and the time was coming.
"Bell, bell!"
The penetrating bell trembled, and the noisy sound was suddenly clear.
The notary, an old man with a white beard, came to the center of the venue with two notarial documents.
"Are the two parties involved, His Excellency Kenneth Ermelo Achpolud and His Excellency Azaki Ozaki, sure that there will be a duel?" The old man's face was withered, but his voice was solemn and powerful.
"Sure."
"No objections."
Kenneth and Purple are separated by a notary, about five feet away.
The proud magician has regained his composure and casualness, and even those who have sneaked up on him have not lost his grace.
However, until the hatred is cleared with blood, the opponent will not be forgiven.
"Okay, please sign this document, after signing, life or death, unless someone takes the initiative to admit defeat, it will end with the death of one party."
Seeing that there was no objection from both sides, the old man handed over the paperwork.
Signing his name fluently, the old man put away the paperwork and retreated to the edge of the field, the speed of retreat fully showed the fact that he was not an ordinary old man, and the distance between Kenneth and Purple was also a little farther away.
The "bell" sounded, and the duel officially began after the bell ended!
Around Kenneth, several squirming figures began to quickly appear.
"The fallen Aozaki family, let you appreciate what is a fair contest for magicians."
As a staunch supporter of the bloodline theory, Kenneth will also have a contemptuous attitude towards the Aozaki family, who he considers to be nouveau riche, but he also reluctantly recognizes that they are famous magicians with pure blood, but Purple's actions make him angrily abandon his previous views.
Moreover, his life has always been smooth, no one can challenge his status, and no one can do better than him, this is the inevitable result of life, it was like this in the past, and it must be like this in the future, this is a sacred and inviolable "life promise".
Kenneth firmly believes in this fact.
Therefore, if there is a very rare and almost impossible "accident", it is chaos that he absolutely cannot tolerate, and it is an insult and blasphemy to God's order.
It will be judged thoroughly.
"Evil spirits?"
As soon as Kenneth unleashed the summons, Purple recognized them.
Evil spirits and spirits are extremely sensitive to breath, and when they encounter intruders, they can defend and attack without fear of death, and their performance is better than that of hunting dogs, and they are extremely good summoned creatures as both a guard and an attacker. Placed inside the Magic Studio, it is difficult for even Assassins and Magicians who are excellent at concealment to break in without revealing their traces.
Moreover, after summoning a dozen or so in one go, Kenneth took out a test tube and a short staff, and on the left shoulder of his blue coat also had a badge that was clearly newly placed.
It's all magic dress.
"Is bullying people with equipment and numbers a fair way to fight, this is showing off your wealth!"
For a moment, Purple felt jealous, but then she didn't have time to think about it.
Because the evil spirit has rushed over.
◇
Anne stared calmly into the arena.
Her disciples are engaged in a duel, although they can end the battle as long as they admit defeat, but with the intention of killing, they can also find an opportunity to kill the other party, especially Zi will definitely not retreat without a fight.
Don't be pushy, little one.
Although she has only accepted Zi for a few days, she really teaches Zi as her favorite student, and even if she doesn't admit defeat decently, she doesn't want Zi to have an accident.
The magicians in the audience, including Annie, were not optimistic about Purple.
And Purple's current idea is just to smash these evil spirits.
"Boom!" Purple slammed a demon to the floor in a standard lifting stance, nearly breaking it apart, while cushioning the pace of its companions.
Even if the evil spirit materializes, it is also an extremely unstable form.
"Whew!" Purple slid backwards, dodging the impact of the snake-like evil spirit, grabbed its body and squeezed it hard.
The evil spirit suddenly split in two and let out a piercing wail.
In a few breaths, Purple had already destroyed all the evil spirits.
"Oh, do you still know how to fight?"
Kenneth commented with confidence, but his heart was blazing.
It's just a few watchdogs, if Zi can't even handle them, then the humiliation against him will be even more unforgivable, and the stronger Zi is, the more he can reduce his shame.
"It's easier than a bear fight." Purple reminisced about the feeling just now, analyzing the information.
The evil spirit is best at stealth attack, and the evil spirit in the spirit state can't interfere too much with the entity, but after the stealth moves closer and briefly turns into an entity, it can be raided.
However, even without magic, Purple can easily see the whereabouts of evil spirits, and before the battle, Purple attaches enhanced magic to herself.
A large amount of magic power has been greatly improved under the injection of specific spells, and in order to be able to cast a burst of magic power, Anne also gave him a glove.
The gloves are also engraved with the corresponding rune text.
Thoughts only turned in an instant, and after purifying the evil spirits, Purple pounced on Kenneth.
