Chapter 135 - 33 - First Prince Rage

Chapter 135: Chapter 33 - First Prince Rage

With basic magic books and living magic books from Marchioness Shinano Vii Lichtberg, I learned some new magic techniques that were quite useful in this real battle.

A magic spell that would have taken a long time to complete, I could cast in a short time using delayed magic spells. The second prince’s magic attack aimed at me, but was blocked by the thick earth wall in front of me.

Earth Wall, a magic spell that is useful for forming a defensive wall, feels very useful in emergencies situation like this.

"No need to thank me; your lives are still saved thanks to my quick thinking," I said while looking at the third prince and a armored man who had fainted after being roasted alive by me.

They were not dead yet, merely unconscious and in need of immediate medical attention. However, with the honorable match still unfinished, they were both forced unconscious on the rough ground, which became even rougher after the appearance of a protective Earth Wall.

Peeesshhh...

Peeessshh...

The sound of explosions and embers burning the ground filled the air. The Fire Lance should have been able to penetrate my Earth Wall magic; I had deliberately thickened the wall to reduce Fire Lance penetration. Fortunately, what I feared didn’t happen.

The Fire Lance, the second prince cast earlier was a intermediate magic spell, capable of changing its form to thrust or penetrate defense wall. As an advanced spell, it’s slightly weaker than the Fire Lance cast by Master Amagi.

Even before the royal tea party’s "talent show" began, they were soundly defeated by a apprentice maid. Their hopes of defeating Master Amagi and Master Reina were dashed with this reality results... their utter defeat was already assured at the royal family’s tea party.

Dust and smoke from the Fire Lance explosion covered my body. My elegant apprentice maid uniform, now looked shabby, and my face covered in dust.

Holding my throat that felt itchy and wanted to cough, I cast the Wind Pool spell to clean my body of the dust that had stuck to my maid uniform.

"Pool..." Continuing the delayed magic spell I had prepared earlier, a strong gust of wind swirled around me, clearing the smoke and dust around me.

Weeessshhh...

Weeessshhh...

The solid Earth Wall spell before me surprised everyone, even my mother, who was surprised by the sudden thick of wall protecting me. With a light sigh, I swung my wooden sword and smiled at the second prince.

"Nice magic spell; unfortunately, it couldn’t penetrate my defense."

"Keep practicing your Fire Lance magic, so it can penetrate a piece of paper," I said, giving him some rage bait advice.

For some reason, I feel like I’m approaching the role of an antagonistic maid who will be hated at the end of the story.

Maybe it happened because I was getting used to serving Master Reina and Master Amagi, then their Villainess attitudes carried over into my new personality.

"H-How is that possible? That’s magic that can penetrate iron armor!" shouted the second prince, unable to believe what was before his eyes.

"I don’t know, maybe your magic is much weaker than you thought?" I replied, continuing my rage bait.

"Y-You! Don’t get too cocky just because you got through my Fire Lance! You don’t even have any long-range magic attacks other than Fireball, do you?!" the second prince said after devouring my rage bait.

Even after showing off my amateurish magic skills and sword techniques, a prince who is known to be intelligent and able to think logically said such a stupid thing.

It seems my rage-baiting skills are constantly evolving, and no one knows how easy it will be for me to perform elegant race-baiting in the future. The angrier the second prince gets, the more satisfied I am with playing this honorable fight under my control.

"It’s only natural that I’m get too cocky, because your magic abilities are that low," I replied with a smile.

"Maybe... my Earth Wall spell will be broken through if you can do this."

"Ball..." continuing my delayed chant, a ball of water floated in front of me.

Pllliippp...

Pllliippp...

Without any complicated magic circles, I manifest a ball of water the size of my palm. It wasn’t too big or too small to intimidate the second prince.

"Pffttt!! What kind of magic is that? It’s too small to hurt me!" shouted the second prince in his arrogant tone.

My Waterball spell may have seemed small and laughable, but it was enough to injure the second prince through a "small" change in the water. Adding a slight modification to the frozen water on its outer layer, I froze the water ball floating in front of me into a baseball-sized ball of ice.

Ckkuurrttt...

CKKUURRRTT...

The freezing water could be heard in all directions, making the second prince, who was laughing, fall silent after considering my attack a small threat that could be avoided.

The first prince realized what attack I was about to launch. He immediately moved away from the second prince as soon as my hand touched the frozen chunk of ice.

My gaze was locked on the second prince’s face, who had recovered after drinking the potion; his handsome face made me want to bruise it even more.

A prince deserves to show off his handsome face, but it would be even more fitting to show off his battered face, right?

With that belief, I took a attacking stance to throw the frozen water ball at the second prince.

"Time to hit a home run!" I said with a smile that I deliberately let slip to show how happy I was to be doing this.

My left foot moved forward to take a throw stance, pulling my right hand back after holding the frozen water ball, and I threw it with all my might forward.

Swiinngg!!

My right hand swung rapidly, releasing a ball of frozen water towards the second prince face, who was panicking to find a way to quickly dodge.

Maybe he could have avoided the frozen water ball if he had trained his feet well or noticed the danger signs coming his way.

But unfortunately, the action he took was to stand still like a fool without trying to escape.

"THAT’S NOT AN ORDINARY MAGIC SPELL!"

"YOU SHOULD BE CHANTING LONG SPELLS, NOT CHANTING UNCHANTED FREEZING SPELLS!"

"WHAT HAVE YOU DONE—"

Before the second prince could finish his words, a ball of frozen water hit his head with a satisfying loud sound and broken.

Blttaaakkk!!

It sounded like a rock being thrown at someone’s head. But in this case, it wasn’t a rock, but the second prince’s head that was hit by my attack.

My throw wasn’t that fast in my eyes; if the second prince had dodged by throwing his body to the right a millisecond faster, the frozen water ball wouldn’t have hit his head.

"Besides failing as a magic user, you also failed in training your evasive reflexes," I said after seeing the frozen water ball hit the second prince’s forehead.

Without any resistance in the form of final words or farewells after defeat, the second prince looked at me with a strange smile before collapsing.

Buuggghhh...

His body simply fell to the ground, without uttering any fanciful words like "I’ll leave the rest to you, Big Brother!" or anything like that to the first prince. The second prince simply fainted, without any satisfactory resistance.

On this dry expanse of training land, there were already four victims lying helplessly, leaving only the first prince, who was preparing to cast a magic spell on his own body.

"I didn’t want to use this, but you forced me to use it!"

"BLAME THE BAD LUCK THAT HAPPENED TO YOU, DAMN MAID!" shouted the first prince loudly.

Cttiinngg!!

Cttiinngg!!

My danger detection ability told me something bad was about to happen. The magical mana around the first prince surged dramatically, converging at his feet, and most of it converging on the iron sword he held.

"Eeh? Wait? Iron sword?" I muttered after making sure my eyes weren’t seeing things.

"Hey! Why are you using an iron sword while I’m using a wooden sword!" I protested loudly.

My voice of protest echoed loudly, but it was not received well by the first prince, who looked so annoyed with me.

My rage baiting seemed to have gone too far, making the First Prince so angry with me and force him to use iron sword. My gaze fell on Duchess Adelheid Von Blutfeld, demanding that she will take responsibility for the situation that had spiraled beyond my control.

Sluuurp...

Sluuurp...

"..." I found myself in danger of my own race-baiting situation.

Besides not caring about what would happen in the front yard of the Mansion where she lived, Duchess Adelheid Von Blutfeld was busy drinking warm tea and enjoying this honorable match that was heading towards its climax.

Marchioness Shinano Vii Lichtberg also did not remain silent; she cast a protective spell around her to ensure the safety of the King and Queen of the Kingdom of Belfast.

"Haaahhh... Here we go again."

"Alone... and I must take care of this shit, huh?" I muttered and took a deep breath after seeing all this.

I only had one pending magic spell left, and I also only had one emergency spell...

This will be a tough win for me...

I toyed with my opponent too much, allowing the first prince to power up after seeing his teammates’ defeat. The power of friendship can sometimes lead to the villain or female antagonist’s defeat at the end of a story with a sudden power-up from main character.

For example, in the incident I am currently experiencing, my instincts tell me this is a bad time to regret, and I have to give it my all in this final action.

The first prince’s body was filled with a large aura of mana, making me envious because the mana remaining in my body was less than a quarter of its original amount.

"Ugh! This is troublesome to do, but it can’t be helped..."

"Circumstances have forced me to resort to this in underhanded tactic, huh?"

I shook my head and tried to take responsibility for the rage bait I’d unleashed. I approached the first prince, who was bathed in a dense mana aura. The aura was so dense that it formed a thin mana cloud around his feet.

I knew that magic technique, a magic technique passed down from the first King of the Kingdom of Belfast. It increased the user’s movement speed, but fortunately, my delayed magic chant was enough to offset that annoying technique.

Even though it seems unfair for a wooden sword to fight against an iron sword, I won’t give up so easily.

"Mist..." I muttered in a low voice for my magic attack.
