Manaless Mage-Chapter 218: Unexpected Visit[1]

"Argh!!" He grunted in agony, blood spraying out of his mouth.

His body was immediately sent flying, crashing outside the stage. He bounced repeatedly on the ground, before finally sliding to a halt.

"Argh... Kukh!" He groaned in pain, coughing out blood as he slowly stood back on his feet.

His eyes locked with Olivia, who was still standing on the stage, and his body slowly trembled in anger.

"I... I L-lost..." He mumbled, his eyes widening in shock. He was more powerful than her, but still... he lost the match.

[What an exciting turn of events! And with that, we have our winner! Olivia Ava!!]

As if to rub salt on the injury, the commentator’s voice rung across the hall, announcing the winner.

Following that, the hall exploded in loud cheers.

Some hurled insults at the participants, feeling that the match had been fixed before hand.

While some simply praised Olivia, amazed at how she managed to turn the match to her favour.

An instructor walked towards Henry, healing his wounds before guiding him out of the event hall.

As the Elementalist slowly walked out of the hall, the realisation hit him even further. He had been eliminated... he couldn’t even enter the final stage.

Harry’s lips curled into a slight smile as he watched the Elementalist slowly walk down the stage.

With the four other Elementalists in his group having being eliminated, he was the only one seated in the group three section.

It was the same with the other groups. Out of the twenty five participants who participated in the final qualifiers, only five managed to qualify.

As for the rest, they had all been eliminated , at one round or another.

’Watching those Elementalists display all those spells, has made me even more eager to buy new skills.’ Harry thought, letting out a low sigh.

He could still feel Trent’s gaze lingering on him with hate and disdain, however, he ignored it, acting like he didn’t even know he was there.

He was still quite suspicious about Trent. Ever since the beginning of the tournament, he had been sensing a strange vibe around the Elementalist.

He didn’t really understand what it was, and it might be that he was just being paranoid.

However, he doubted that was the case. Trent’s sudden increase in power... the odd vibe he was sensing from him, everything just didn’t seem "normal".

’Whatever... it’s not my business.’ Harry thought, brushing the thought off his mind.

[After a lot thrilling fights and matches, the final qualifiers is finally over! Out of twenty five competitors, only five managed to qualify to the final round!]

The commentator’s excited voice reverberated across the stage, eliciting shouts of joy and applause from the crowd of students.

The giant yellow hologram appeared again, displaying the names of those who were able to qualify to the last round of the event.

The commentator then went over the fights again, giving a summarised review over all that happened in the event so far.

Hearing his words reminded the students of how far they had come in the event, and how many students had already been dropped from the event.

It only further increased the hype on the final round, and they were all more than eager for it to arrive.

After going over the event one last time, the commentator then announced when the final stage would hold.

The final stage of the ranking competition would be held three days from now, giving the remaining five participants ample time to recover their strength and stamina, and prepare properly for the event.

Harry’s brows furrowed slightly, sprawling lazing on his bed. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

Floating in front of him was a system tab, and his eyes narrowed slightly as he looked through the tab.

’I’ve progressed a little bit more... but it’s still not as fast as I expected.’ Harry thought, lightly clenching his fists.

Ever since the mana beast attack on the restaurant, he had been training even harder in a bid to comprehend the fire affinity.

However, things hadn’t been progressing as smoothly as he would like.

Ever since he crossed the seventy five percent mark, it seemed like he had hit another wall.

The process has become twice more difficult, and while he was still advancing little by little, it wasn’t like before anymore.

’It doesn’t matter how many walls rise up in front of me... I’ll make sure I breakthrough every single one of them, and get stronger.’ Harry thought, narrowing his eyes in determination.

He could still remember how helpless he felt against the stage four mana beast, both the first and second times.

That disgusting feeling... he never wanted to feel it again.

Ding!

Suddenly, his doorbell rang, breaking him out of his thoughts.

"Huh?" Harry mumbled, furrowing his brows slightly. ’Someone’s at the door?’

He had been living here alone for a few months now... however, not one had someone come to visit him.

’So who the hell is that? A trap?’ Harry thought, slowly standing up from his bed.

He carefully walked towards the door, keeping his guard up just in case.

Although he wasn’t really expecting any assassins to show up at the front of his door in a bid to end his life, he still felt he couldn’t be too careful.

However, after checking who was at the door, Harry’s eyes narrowed slightly seeing a familiar face.

’Laura?’ He mumbled inwardly, seeing the familiar long auburn hair and pretty face.

’Did something happen again at the restaurant?’ He thought, narrowing his eyes.

After pondering for a few seconds, Harry finally opened the door, revealing the beautiful face of the girl.

"Hi... Harry." Laura muttered, fiddling her fingers.
