Chapter 413 The Competition ( 3 )
“Vale, did you see Princess Ceres’ performance? She was absolutely mesmerizing… Are you getting nervous now?” Maya commented as the Princess stepped down the stage.
Apparently, the one selected to participate in this Spectacle of Talents was Vale Chambers. Of course, this means that he won’t be able to participate in other contests—specifically, the Mirage of Wonders, Trial of Skills, and the Group Segment for Monster Hunter.
Vale nodded. “Yes, it was an incredible performance.”
“But Vale, my friend, you have a unique talent for Dark Arts. I have no doubt that you will create something equally beautiful and captivating.” Philip chimed in. From the day he was rescued by Vale from that dungeon, he had always believed that his classmate could do anything.
Luna and Crystal, though not as close to Vale, offered their words of encouragement.
Vale wryly smiled at this as he could tell that they were also feeling worried because the Princess’ performance was indeed captivating and difficult to forget…
“I will give it my all and make Dark Arts shine on that stage.” Vale could only reply as the contest continued.

The next student to take the stage was a talented young woman named Serena from the Mystic Arts Academy. As the applause for Ceres’s performance gradually subsided, Serena stepped forward, ready to showcase her own unique abilities.
Serena, with her mesmerizing violet eyes and flowing dark hair, exuded an aura of mystery. The audience leaned forward in anticipation…
As soon as she heard the signal from the umpire, she gently nodded and activated her Spells.
‘I can do this…’ Serena muttered to herself.
With a flick of her wrist, she began her performance, utilizing the Toxic Illusion, Mirage Weaver, and Spark spells to create a spellbinding spectacle. 𝙡𝒃𝒆𝓪.𝒎
Toxic Illusion was Serena’s specialty, and she expertly manipulated the toxic fumes, creating illusions that seemed almost tangible. At her command, the green fumes twisted and contorted, morphing into fantastical creatures and landscapes.
Next, Serena employed her mastery of the Mirage Weaver spell. She conjured shimmering mirages that danced and shimmered before the audience’s eyes.
This lasted for three minutes before Serena unleashed her final spell, Trinket Spark.
Brilliant sparks of mystical energy burst forth from her fingertips, illuminating the stage with a dazzling display of light. The brilliance was a lot different from Ceres since the green fumes were still surrounding her. The sparks she created had also intertwined and swirled, creating intricate patterns that mesmerized the onlookers.
“Three Mystic Spells meant for battle could actually be so beautiful in her hands… Marvelous…” 𝘪𝑎.
“She did well indeed. This is completely different from the previous Competitions since they don’t have many spells this time, so they had to be creative with their recorded Spells.”
The panel of experts watched in awe as Serena effortlessly showed the harmony of her Spells. They had witnessed such a captivating display.
Her Toxic Illusion, Mirage Weaver, and Trinket Spark spells were meant to torture and kill her target, but she infused them with her style and artistry and created such a spectacle.
As Serena gracefully concluded her performance, the audience erupted into thunderous applause, their cheers echoing throughout the arena.
Then, she looked at a certain area in the central platform and realized that the First Prince was no longer there.
Indeed, he had only visited this place to show some support to the Third Princess.
‘So it was like that…’
After feeling disappointed for a brief moment, Serena immediately changed her expression as she expressed her gratitude to the audience with a smile and a slight bow.
The competition continued with each academy’s representative showcasing their talents. The student from the Elemental Arts Academy mesmerized the audience with a dazzling fireworks display, filling the sky with bursts of vibrant colors and sparkling lights. It was a spectacle that left the crowd in awe.
However, the student from the Rune Arts Academy faced a slight mishap. Despite his best efforts, one of the three Runic Symbols he created failed to activate. It was likely due to nervousness, causing a small mistake in his otherwise intricate performance. Nonetheless, the audience appreciated his efforts and applauded him for his creativity.
The student from the Beast Arts Academy brought forth a magical sight as she opened her grimoire and summoned a flock of rainbow sparrows. The colorful birds soared through the air, creating a captivating display that enchanted the onlookers.
While these performances were commendable, Princess Ceres and Serena’s earlier displays had set the bar incredibly high. Their incredible performance left a deep impression on the audience, making the subsequent performances appear somewhat mediocre in comparison.
The crowd couldn’t help but compare the current participants to the brilliance they had witnessed earlier.
However, the atmosphere in the arena suddenly shifted as a female knight apprentice finally took her place on the stage.
The apprentice’s name was Amelia, a determined and talented young warrior from the Knights Academy.
As she stood there, her half-body armor gleamed under the sunlight… Silence fell over the crowd, captivated by her presence.
With a swift motion, Amelia unsheathed her sword, its polished blade catching the light.
Her eyes remained closed as her mind focused on her performance.
‘Let’s see how a swordsman will amaze this huge crowd…’ Odessa commented in her mind. She was really enjoying their performance and didn’t leave with the First Prince.
She wanted to see this till the end.
Soon, Amelia began her performance.
Her sword danced through the air, leaving trails of shimmering light in its wake. Each strike was executed with flawless technique, demonstrating her mastery of the art of swordsmanship.
However, this wasn’t a simple sword dance…
As the performance progressed, Amelia’s movements became more intricate and dynamic. She seamlessly transitioned between graceful flourishes and powerful strikes, captivating the audience with her skillful display.
The crowd erupted into applause and cheers as Amelia executed a series of breathtaking maneuvers, showcasing her agility and control.
As soon as her performance reached its peak, she raised her sword and looked at the sky…
Then, to everyone’s surprise, dark clouds started to gather!
Vale, who had been watching the performance, couldn’t help but straighten his back as he witnessed her actions.
“This..”
