PARALLEL MEMORY

Chapter 460 Sylvia Fights To Till The End

"I must admit, you've lasted longer than I expected. But I grow tired of this charade. It's time to end this farce."

Princess Elenia said as she released her Rank-S mana aura. It was enough for her to just release her mana aura to immobilize any Rank-B.

However, Sylvia was no ordinary opponent and she managed to resist Rank-S mana aura. Syvlia also seemed to have an artifact on her necklace which helped Sylvia resist the pressure.

Elenia then raised her hand, and a swirling mass of mana began to form above her palm. The energy condensed, forming a dazzling sphere of power that crackled with raw magic.

Elenia shot out her attack directly towards Sylvia. Although it looked very powerful, for Elenia it was just a casual attack. And that casual attack was as powerful as Rank-As attack.

[ "Inferno Crescent" ]

Sylvia draws her bow in a wide arc, releasing an arrow that's surrounded by swirling flames. The arrow ignited the air as it traveled, leaving behind a trail of fire.

It directly hit Elenia's magic sphere. Sylvia was trying to destroy that magic sphere before it reached her.

-BOOM! -BOOM!

Sylvia's attack caused a series of explosions on its impact with Elenia's attack. However, Elenia's attack made no sign of stopping and made its way towards Sylvia.

-WHOOSH!

Sylvia dodged the attack, however, Elenia flicked her finger and redirected the attack back to where Sylvia was and it was even faster than before.

!!!

[ "Stellar Leap!" ]

Sylvia launched a series of arrows and she uses those arrows as steps to propel herself higher. It was as if she was flying.

When she reached a certain height, Sylvia looked at Elenia rather than the attack which was just following behind her.

[ "Inferno Crescent" ]

Sylvia attacked Elenia with her skill. A series of fiery arrows made its way towards Elenia.

-BOOM! -BOOM!

While Elenia was getting hit by Sylvia's attack, Sylvia also had to deal with Elenia's magical sphere. Instead of running or dodging, Sylvia attacked Elenia. Now, she has to face Elenia's attack without any chance of dodging.

Sylvia immediately used her mana barrier. But alas, the mana barrier was not strong enough to withstand such a powerful attack. It instantly smashed her mana barrier even though the attack was weakened by Syliva's initial attack on it.

On the other hand, Elenia seemed to have been protected by her mana barrier without any problem.

Anyway, outside the arena, the spectator watched the fight with interest. The fight which many thought would be over the moment it started had turned very captivating.

Aside from the fact that Rank-B was challenging Rank-S, they found that Sylvia was very powerful for her rank. Despite being Rank–B, her attacks were no less than that of Rank-A fighters.

Moreover that persistence has managed to capture many of their hearts. It would have been much easier to give up in that circumstance but Sylvia continued to fight back courageously.

"Sylvia!"

Lisa shouted when Sylvia got hit by Elenia's attack. Considering Sylvia's strength, she knew that Sylvia wouldn't die but nonetheless she was worried.

"Shouldn't she surrender by now?"

Misha was also getting worried. With the things heading, Sylvia will only get more injured if she continues to fight.

Sylvia already showed what she was capable of and there was no need to risk her life for a small competition.

Hiro and Zion also didn't have good expressions but there was nothing that they could do. It was Sylvia's fight and whether to fight or not should be decided by her as well.

"Oh!"

Zero was surprised at the strength displayed by Sylvia. It was indeed worthy of being called the main character.

However, he also knew that if Elenia had used her full strength, she could have already ended the fight in a second.

( The reason she didn't is either because she is very prideful or wants to probe the power of Sylvia! )

Zero thought.

In any case, Zero feels that Sylvia still has something to show.

"Do you really think Sylvia has a chance?"

Amelia asked Zero who was still watching the fight. She heard Zero's conversation with Sylvia. She didn't know why Zero was encouraging Sylvia to fight with Elenia, rather than asking her to give up. Anyone could see that the result was predetermined.

"Of course!"

Zero answered. He never thought that there was any fight that couldn't be won. People make mistakes and if you have your guard down, even if you were stronger, you would die in the hands of a weaker person.

"Hmmm… Really?"

Amelia was doubtful. The fight might have already been decided. She didn't know where Zero's confidence came from.

"Just keep watching! Maybe she will surprise you!"

Zero said as his focus soon shifted back to Sylvia and Elenia.

Back at the arena, Princess Elenia survived Sylvia's attack without a speck of dust on her body.

"Hah… Hah…. Hah… "

On the other hand, Sylvia was heavily panting. She was covered in blood after receiving Elenia's attack. Although she survived the attack, she didn't look very good.

Princess Elenia looked at Sylvia in amusement.

"Why go so far? Even abandoning your defense just to attack me."

Princess Elenia said. By now, she thought that Elenia should give up the fight and surrender.

Sylvia looked at Elenia, her mind still searching for a way to defeat Elenia. Her reason for attacking Elenia just now was because one's defense will be weak while attacking.

So when Elenia was controlling her Magical Sphere, her defense was low which was an opportunity for her. However, Elenia had quickly switched to defense.

Elenia's control over Magical Sphere has disappeared due to which despite Sylvia taking the hit, she wasn't completely defeated.

However that gamble was a failure and she suffered. Anyways, Sylvia didn't think that she could win without taking risks.

If Elenia's didn't abandon attacking then Sylvia's attack might have done some damage.

Anyway, it was not looking good for Sylvia. Her mana will be exhausted and she really will have no chance of defeating Princess Elenia.

"Since you are willing to go so far, then I will send you off honorably!"

Princess Elenia said as she summoned a bow and arrow made up of mana. Then she began loading up her mana, indicating that she was going to launch a pretty powerful attack.

Sylvia's heart raced, her mind racing to find a way out of this dire situation. She knew she had to act quickly, or that devastating spell would obliterate her. But how could she break through Elenia's defense and mount a counterattack?

Then, in a split second, an idea sparked in Sylvia's mind. Princess Elenia was going to use her powerful attack, didn't that mean that her defense would be even weaker than earlier?

Of course, she would also be vulnerable. But Sylvia didn't care!

If she didn't risk this, she wouldn't have another chance. She was going to take down Princess Elenia with her.

[ "Aurora's Grace" ]

As Elenia hurled the charged arrow towards Sylvia, Sylvia had also made her move. With a burst of determination, Sylvia summoned all her mana, focusing it into a tiny, concentrated point. She channeled her energy into her bow and arrow, imbuing them with her willpower.

[ "Spectral Annihilation" ]

Time seemed to slow as Sylvia drew her bowstring back, her arrow glowing with a brilliant light. She directly aimed at Princess Elenia and not at Elenia's attack.

!!!

This of course surprised Princess Elenia who thought that Sylvia was trying to destroy her attack. She didn't think Sylvia would be willing to attack her at the expense of her own life.

Elenia quickly deployed her mana barrier. However, she could only deploy little mana because the attack came right after she attacked.

-BOOM!

When Sylvia's attack touched Elenia's mana barrier, it caused a huge explosion. So huge that it was 10x the previous attack of Sylvia.

Sylvia watched her attack hit Princess Elenia.

After having used all her mana for that attack, Sylvia had exhausted all her mana. She just collapsed and watched Elenia's attack make its way towards her.

She simply closed her eyes, satisfied with all she had done. She delivered her strongest attack when her opponent had the least time to prepare for it.

Anyway, it seemed that this was it for her. She closed her eyes, waiting for the attack to hit her. 𝚋𝚎𝚍ｎ𝚘ｖ𝚎𝚕.𝚗𝚎𝚝

…

But nothing happened! She waited and waited but the attack just didn't seem to hit her. She slowly opened her eyes only to see herself in someone's arm.

"Sylvia, you've truly shown me the extent of your power. I'm amazed!"
