(Day 2 --- Somewhere at the Spring Region Uphill --- Huge Plain)
On the other hand, Accel who watches the current situation on the huge plain does not understand what's going on. The reason is, that he thought this would be an individual fight against one another, but it becomes a fighting with groups plus making an Alliance at the same time.
Unexpectedly, while Accel was in deep thought he sensed a small-sized group that had more than 100 students on their way here, but Accel at that time was thinking hard and let his guard down. Upon, their arrival they saw Accel and immediately attacked him. Unfortunately, Accel's passive skill has been activated since the start of the Battle Royale.
[Accel uses Quick Draw and Quick Guard eliminating 5 students quickly.]
They didn't stop and all students from the front charged towards Accel. Others lift their shields, while others cast their magical spells either buff effects or attack spells.
[Accel uses Illiminate to blind the shielders and activates Light Barrier and Reflective Barrier to protect himself against the shielders. He charges toward the shielders and activates his Power Slash and Piercing Thrust to destroy their shields or knock them back collapsing their shield formation.]
Accel Thoughts: [Thinking] "Damn this people, when will they stop this reckless charge towards me. Let's try eliminating them into half their size, maybe they will retreat."
While that is going on with Accel dealing the students you are just charging towards him, on the other side of the Huge Plains, where the fighting is going on...
(Spring Region --- Huge Plain --- Vortex Alliance's Flanking Group)
Alliance 2nd General of the Left Flank Lila (G9): [Whispering] "Everyone, stay low and quiet. We need to get behind their lines without being detected."
Flanking Group Member A (G8): [Nervous] "Do you think this will work, Lila?"
Alliance 2nd General of the Left Flank Lila (G9): [Determined] "It has to. Once we're in position, we'll wait for Katarina's signal. Remember, we need to hit them hard and fast."
(Spring Region --- Huge Plain --- Silver Alliance's Defensive Line)
Alliance Vice-Leader Jackson (G9): [Commanding] "Hold the line! Don't let them push us back!"
Silver Alliance Fighter Groups (Majority of Grade 8 Students): [Struggling] "They're relentless! We need reinforcements!"
Alliance Vice-Leader Jackson (G9): [Firm] "Ethan, how are the flanks holding?"
Alliance Prime Minister of Strategic and Tactical Plans Ethan (G8): [Confident] "Solid. If they try to flank us, they'll be in for a surprise."
Alliance Vice-Leader Jackson (G9): [Nodding] "Good. Marcus, they're regrouping. We need to be ready for anything."
Alliance Leader Marcus (G9): [Strategic Thinking] "Stay vigilant. The Vortex Alliance is crafty. They won't give up easily."
(Spring Region --- Huge Plain --- Right Side of the Silver Alliance)
Alliance Leader of the Storm Alliance Ash Mondragon (G9): [Raises the Red Flag] "All Mages! Fire!!!"
[Storm Alliance was created by Ash Mondragon, a Grade 9 Student. They started a rapid-fire explosion that is Intermediate Level dealing and eliminating more than 150 students from the Silver Alliance Fighter Groups.]
Because of this unexpected attack from the right side of the Silver Alliance, their formation was broken and the Vortex Alliance started their attack. The Silver Alliance Leader Marcus didn't expect Storm Alliance and Vortex Alliance to join forces and defeat them.
(Silver Alliance's Defensive Right Side)
Alliance Captain Nova (G9): [Calling to the Communication Center] "This is Captain Nova from the Defensive Right Side, we are under attack by unknown magical spells. We have suffered more than 150 students who are all Grade 7 Students, I repeat..."
But, the Communication Center of the Silver Alliance could not understand the situation. The reason was they were temporarily blocked by a barrier that surrounds a certain small area. They were trying to figure out the situation as fast as possible, but it was too late.
Vortex Alliance managed to push back the Silver Alliance Defensive Line, which made the Alliance Leader, Vice-Leader, and the Alliance Generals retreat to the Middle Defensive Line.
(Somewhere at the Silver's Defensive Front Line)
Alliance Officer Raizah of the 10th Mage Group (G7): [Smiled] "Senior Katarina, my older brother has started the attack and soon they will send the forces and destroy the right defensive line."
Alliance Leader Katarina (G9): [Pat Her Back] "Nice one, Raizah. With this, the Battle Royale might early than what we expected, Hmm? What are you searching at the Leaderboards? Are you looking for someone?"
Alliance Officer Raizah (G7): [Happy] "Yes and at least he managed to reach one of the top students and it's still increasing, Senior Katarina."
[Katarina looks at the Leaderboards, where Raizah is looking.]
Katarina Thoughts: "Hmm... Oh, I see... Now, I get it... Interesting..."
(Few Hours Later)
After a few hours had passed on the top hill, the small-sized group was eliminated and Accel managed to deal with all of them, exhausted and about to faint. But, with his determination and will. He stands and becomes one of the top students to pass the final exam.
As for the Silver Alliance, most of them were eliminated and the countdown has started. The reason why the countdown has started is because the top students have reached their minimum. So, students need to survive at least 10 minutes and the final exam will end.
(10 Minutes Later)
Director Ramos: [Triumphant] "Congratulations, students. The battle royale has ended. Those who remain have passed the final exam."
Cheers erupted from the surviving students. Exhausted but elated, they had endured one of the most grueling tests of their lives. As the magical barriers faded and the battlefield began to return to normal, the students knew they had accomplished something extraordinary.
Vortex Alliance Leader Katarina: [Proud] "We did it. Well done, everyone."
Silver Alliance Leader Marcus: [Relieved] "Against all odds, we prevailed."
Storm Alliance Leader Ash: [Satisfied] "Our alliance was key to this victory. I should tell my little sister for the info."
Accel: [Falls to the Ground] "I made it. Now, it's time for me to rest."
System Notification: "You have earned a passive skill called, Unwavering Will!"
The surviving students were transported back to the academy, where they would be recognized for their achievements and promoted to the next grade level. The battle royale had tested their limits, but they had emerged stronger, ready to face whatever lay ahead in their journey at the National Mastery Academy.
Students who survived and got injured were immediately transported to the recover center, including Accel himself who was gravely injured. And that concludes the Battle Royale Arc!
(End of Chapter 19 and Battle Royale Arc!)
