Chapter 110 : Amelia vs Zo


    "Don''t call me that!" Reacted Talia to Alex calling her ''beautiful''.


    "Is it false? Are you not beautiful?" Asked Alex in an innocent tone.


    "No, it''s just that it feels disgustinging from you! I don''t even know how woman the like of Lilia and Anna can be with a man like you"


    "Oh you do know the reason, if I recall correctly, weren''t you also-"


    "Shut up!" Eximed Talia to keep Alex from continuing his sentence.


    She shot him a death re and whispered to him, "If you ever-"


    "Start!"


    Before she could finish her warning, Talia''s voice was drowned out by Adrian''s, announcing the start of Amelia and Zo''s fight.


    Talia red at Alex onest time before turning around to concentrate on Amelia''s fight.


    ''It''s always funny to mess with here, chuckled Alex before he also turned to concentrate on Amelia''s fight.


    Upon the fight initiation, before Amelia could even take out her seeds that usually grow into nts, Zo took out a longsword from his space ring and charged towards her.


    ''I must not give her time to use any of her abilities,'' thought Zo as he streaked towards Amelia with great speed.


    From what he had seen, Amelia was the type of opponent that one should defeat at the very start of a fight due to her abilities.


    He needed to defeat her before she had time to nt her seeds and make them grow.


    He wasn''t worried about her other power that allowed her to create an explosion in her battle against Ector because, from his understanding, she needed time to form that explosive orb. So, if he defeated her from the start, he didn''t need to worry.


    Contrary to what Alex and Amelia thought, he had no intention to harm her because Alex had ''humiliated'' his twin brother, He was someone with a cool head, able to analyze things calmly; He knew that his brother was in the wrong, so he understood why Alex ''punished'' him.


    As for why he had red at Alex, well, it was as Amelia said. En was his twin, and their faces were pretty identical. People often confused them. Now that his twin had been ''humiliated,'' if someone wanted to make fun of En, he might be the one at the receiving end instead of his brother. It was annoying, however, it was not enough for him to hate Alex or Amelia. All he wanted in this fight was to win because he wanted to be the head of the branch, nothing more.


    Barely a split second since he charged at her, Zo was upon Amelia, swinging his sword vertically towards her.


    ''He''s fast!'' thought Amelia as she swiftly evaded the sword by moving to her right.


    Boom


    ''And also powerful'' added Amelia as she nced at the aftermath of Zo longsword touching the ground.


    Zo''s attack was so heavy and fast that his sword caused the ground to crack under its force.


    ''His ability is truly dangerous; unfortunately, he is squandering it with that sword,'' thought Amelia as she evaded another attack from Zo, who didn''t leave her any room to breathe.


    Zo''s ability was one with a great potential, this ability boosted all his physical attributes, not just his strength and speed, but also his sight, his hearing and even the hardness of his body.


    The problem was that he persisted in using the longsword as a mean to fight, even though it''s not a weapon made for an ability like his.


    ''The sword is not meant for you, it greatly restricts you''


    The number of times Zo had heard this sentence was uncountable, even his twin had once said that to him, but for some reason he still clung to the sword.


    ''He might be the only one here able to go toe to toe with Alex in terms of physical might'' analyzed Amelia as she ducked to avoid a horizontal sh.


    ''Let''s end this,'' thought Amelia as she rolled on the ground to evade the kick that Zo aimed at her when his sh missed.


    The moment Amelia stabilized herself, she extended her arm and a multicolor round orb quickly formed on her arm.


    Seeing the orb, Zo came to a stop just as he intended to charge at Amelia again to prevent her from activating her abilities, however it seemed that he was already toote.


    What Zo didn''t know was that contrary to what he and everyone else who didn''t know Amelia''s residual st ability thought, she didn''t need to concentrate for a long period to create her orb. The reason it took her several minutes when fighting Ector was due to theck of residual energy in the air and the ground at the start of the fight. However, how many battles urred after hers? How many abilities were used, and thus, how much residual energy was avable for her to utilize?


    The answers to these questions were ''many,'' so contrary to before when she needed time to concentrate and draw residual energy to her, now she could do it even on the fly, as she just did.


    "Do you give up or do you want to test if your hardened skin can resist the explosion ?" Asked Amelia.


    As Zo was seriously thinking if he should have faith in his hardened skin to save him.


    "For your information, I can make this orb much bigger than this, and it will be at least ten times more powerful than the one I used Ector, are you willing to give it a go?" Questioned Amelia with a smile.


    "You pair of siblings are really something" said Zo as he shook his head.


    "I give up"


    "That''s the smart thing to do," said Amelia as she dispersed the residual energy she had used to create the orb.


    "Amelia''s wins the fight!" Eximed Adrian.


    After that, Amelia returned to the participants'' sitting area, boasted to her brother a little, then started gossiping with Anna and Talia as the next fight unfolded. Meanwhile, Alex dozed off again due to the boring battles that took too long from his point of view.


    Just like in the first stage of thepetition, all the fights that happened after Amelia''s were boring to watch because there wasn''t much action.


    The only fight that interested the people after Amelia one was the one opposing Talia''s little brother and Jonathan.


    Jonathan had won the fight, but it was not as easily as his fight in the first round, and he even had to use one of his two abilities, wind maniption, to win the battle.


    After this fight, there was another one and then finally it was time for thest fight of the second round.


    "Talia darling, it''s our turn, let''s make sure to go at it for a long time~"
