I understand his bewilderment, the dagger was pointing towards the area between Elia's eyebrows and gradually started moving to the side and passed near elia's head which remained standing in place the whole time.
If the dagger had swerved suddenly, I would have been able to tell that something had caused it to deviate from its target
But the deviation was gradual and as if it deviated on its own
Air resistance cannot affect this dagger, because it is made of a material that reduces the effect of air resistance
Of course, anyone could spread the aura and form a layer of protection around his body and protect him from such an attack
But there is no trace of the aura near elia
And we know that Elia can't use the aura, and that was the problem that got us to this point in the first place
Professors, students, or even ordinary people watching on television may not know what is happening
But Edward and I both know that something strange is going on here
Sylvia lunged at Elia, aiming for Elia's head, even though she had lost a dagger, she still had another.
For ordinary students, this attack was fast, but for me and the academy masters, it was a slow attack due to the strength difference.
Elia still kept his calm face, tilted his head slightly, the dagger passed a few inches from his face, and then He launched an attack by using his knee to hit Sylvia's stomach
The blow was so powerful that it threw Sylvia towards the edge of the ring and crashed into the protection wall
I froze in shock, how could he do that?
His movements were simple, not showing any skill, but that was the essence of his movements
Very simple and very practical
If he had done anything wrong, his face would have been severely injured
But he had acted as if everything was under his control from the start
Sylvia got up from her place, and there was confusion on her face, but she quickly returned to her calmness, she stood there for a moment, and for some seconds panic appeared on her face
elia started moving towards Sylvia, while the girl remained standing where she was and there was a worried look on her face.
Finally Sylvia looked at Elia, and started running towards him quickly
Her speed was higher than the speed of the previous attack, and she tried to stab his neck from the side
When Sylvia started to run, Elia stopped
He was looking forward the whole time
Even when Sylvia was attacking from the side, Elia was looking forward
The dagger was only inches from reaching Elia's neck
But he suddenly stopped in his place
Elia grabbed Sylvia's wrist and stopped her attack
Everyone took a deep breath from this movement. Stopping the dagger from such a close distance required accuracy and skill, especially since Sylvia was level (E+), which means that she is two levels higher than Elia. This is before Elia lost the ability to use the aura, but Now he couldn't use aura, while Sylvia could still use aura
I thought if I was attacked by someone several levels above me, could I stop his attack like this?
No way, that was suicide
I don't have the guts to make such a bold move
I was probably going to retreat and dodge the attack, but I definitely wouldn't stop the attack like that, especially if the enemy was stronger than me.
Silvia tried to free her hand, but Elia's hand did not budge from its place, and Elia tightened his grip on Silvia's wrist.
I heard something breaking
Is that the sound of breaking bones?
"keh…" Sylvia let out a groan, looking like she was about to scream
But Elia grabbed her from her mouth and lifted her off the ground
Sylvia tried to stand up to Elia and hit him with a few punches using the hand that remained free, but it was useless, these blows did not affect Elia
Elia was holding Silvia by her mouth and by her hand
"Kilik..."
I heard a clear cracking sound coming from Sylvia's wrist
The dagger she had been carrying the whole time fell to the ground
"Foooh-foo…" Sylvia let out a groan from her mouth, which was covered by Elia's hand.
But why is this girl not using aura?
She clearly has a strong advantage against Elia
Elia couldn't use aura, so he would easily lose if he faced someone who could use aura
From the beginning of the duel until now, this girl didn't use aura, she only used physical force
However, it is clear that elia is physically stronger than her
Sylvia was struggling to break free from Elia's grip
She was punching her free hand, and she started using her feet to direct kicks towards Elia's stomach, but Elia remained standing in his place like a statue.
He had an indifferent look, as if he was bored
In the end, Elia lifted Sylvia up and then
"Baam.."
Elia hit Sylvia's head on the floor of the ring
The blow was so strong that the floor cracked
"...." Everyone held their breath in shock
No one expected this to be the end
Sylvia stopped moving
I ran towards Sylvia but Edward arrived before me and checked her condition
Edward looked at me. "She passed out, but no serious injuries..."
I let out a breath of relief
And I looked at Elia, who was standing in his place, crossing his hands on his chest. He was waiting for us to finish
The duel that everyone had been waiting for for several days was over
The result was completely unexpected
The spectators in the stands remained silent, not understanding what had happened
Edward removes the protection wall so that the medical team can enter and transport Sylvia to the clinic
Elia headed towards the exit, and it seemed that he was not affected by the miracle of his victory, as if he expected his victory from the beginning.
I didn't stop him, I just kept staring at his back
Is this the Elia I know?
He was completely different, even the way he walked, looked or moved
He looks like someone else
Edward approached me and whispered, "Does Elia have the power to stop others from using aura..."
I looked at him in shock, "What? What are you talking about?..."
Edward frowned, "Then even you don't know about this..."
"Edward, did you notice something… why didn't Sylvia use her aura during the duel?"
Edward looked towards the ground as he placed his hand on his chin, "It's not that she didn't use the aura, she was trying to use the aura, but there was something preventing the aura from leaving her body..."
"What do you mean?.." My confusion increased
"I don't know either, but I felt light waves of aura coming out of her body. The aura is trying to get out of her body, but something is stopping her, and only a small part of the aura is coming out, and this amount is small and can't make any difference..."
I remained silent after hearing Edward's words
"But I'm surprised you were able to train him to use such amazing moves..." There was a look of admiration on Edward's face.
I frowned upon hearing his words, "It wasn't me who trained him in these moves…"
"What…but I heard that you trained him in a training hall yesterday…"
"Right, I was trying to make him remember the martial arts he had learned before he lost his memory, but I failed to make him remember them….These moves he used today were very skilled and could only be done by an expert who had fought many fights… ."
"I agree with you...but what..."
Edward was trying to say something
However, a member of the medical staff interrupted us, "Deputy Principal, some students found Apprentice Elia lying on the ground…"
" What.."
"What.."
Edward and I screamed at the same time
"Where is he?" I asked the paramedic
"At the clinic, sir..."
The paramedic started leading the way and as we were getting out of the ring I saw Katarina Frost
She was talking to one of the professors and she looked very angry
Our eyes met
I smiled at her and did not hide my gloating
Katarina was angry and gnashed her teeth
Hahaha, I never thought I'd be so happy about someone's failure
But the failure of the Frost family's schemes made me very happy
Although I am happy, I still maintain my cold expression
We got to one of the rooms in the clinic inside the training building
I found Elia lying on the bed, his eyes closed
He seems unconscious
"How is he?.." Edward asked the nurse who was in the room
"Some students found him lying in one of the gardens near the training building. When the paramedics arrived and checked him, they found that his heart had stopped beating. They tried to resuscitate him, but they failed... Then they quickly took him to the clinic, and suddenly his heart started beating again."
Edward looked suspiciously at the nurse, "Are you saying that Elia died for a few minutes and then came back to life?..."
The nurse smiled helplessly, "This is what really happened..."
Edward approached Elia and examined his body
Edward had experience in the use of Aura in medical diagnosis
As he sends the aura to the body of the injured person, and then withdraws it again, and thus he can know the injury that the injured person suffers from
The principle may be simple, but the application is very difficult, and it requires prolonged study and training for years in order to master it.
Edward looked at me. "There are no injuries on his body…he is in the best condition…"
I stood there, remembering the strange things that had happened, and said to Edward, "Sigh, all we can do is wait for Elia to wake up and interrogate him..."
