Two Students could be seen facing each other in the Battle arena In front of a big crowd. The Professors and students were discussing the battle among themselves, and Manu and Vinay were performing extraordinarily. Manu tried to approach Vinay and eliminate him quickly, while Vinay tried to maintain a distance and cast his spells.
As the battle continued, both were able to learn more about each other, even though they knew each other previously. Knowing and Witnessing were two different things, and Vinay was sure now he needed to use stronger spells. As Manu was busy taking down the Armored skeletons near him, black Smoke was released from Vinay's wand that traveled near him.
It hit him, but Manu kept fighting as if nothing had happened. This continued, and Vinay became more and more surprised. Everyone around was also surprised that Vinay's curse spell that made everyone miserable had no effect on Manu. A white spear clad in black Smoke blasted another Sheild of Vinay to piles. Manu said, "If we had fought together, You might have known. I am immune to Curses and all negative effects due to my Jopb Class", The next moment, he threw another Javelin that tore through the air and appeared in front of Vinay.

He touched the ground with his hand, and soon multiple hands made up of Bones appeared from the ground below Manu and caught him. The Armored Skeletons rushed and started attacking Manu. This surprised Manu; he didn't know Vinay could make the 'Hands of the Dead' skill so fast.
Vinay had a good amount of time. He cast another spell and summoned two Skeleton Knights. Manu had just destroyed other armored skeletons when he saw two Skeleton Knights approaching him. They were swift, and their attacks were also stronger.
Vinay cast one more spell, and a red glow surrounded both Skeleton Knights, strengthening them. He then created some hand signs, and the piles of Bones on the battlefield regenerated into armored Skeletons. Multiple opponents completely surrounded Manu.
He released a battle cry and tapped his Spear on the ground. The area around him was blasted, and strange Smoke surrounded his whole body. Each attack carried a strange power that destroyed anything with which it came into contact. When others witnessed this, they knew that this battle would not end soon.
Vinay didn't waste a second. He cast another spell and summoned four Skeleton Archers from the four different sides. Manu, who was fighting against multiple opponents alone before, now had to be even more careful of the archers. He used another skill, and a circular black barrier appeared around him that stopped the projectiles.
The battle continued for some more time; Vinay kept summoning more undead while Manu dodged and fought. At last, the time of the battle was over; now the final result would be declared by the judges.
.had Manu sighed and looked at his position. He was covered in sweat. This battle required him to fight with his full strength for this long. He also had to cast one skill after another, which was quite taxing for him. Vinay approached him, and they both started talking with each other about the battle.
The three judges started discussing among themselves. They were enjoying every battle. Before, they did not need to intervene, but now it was time for them to announce the result.
"Everyone, the battle is over due to the time limit. Who would have thought five minutes would pass so fast? Now the judges would discuss among themselves before deciding the winner," said the commentator.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Every good thing must come to an end like this fight, While only one would be able to qualify for the next battle, for we both are winners. They both gave their all," said Ronny, who now appeared to be a completely different person.
"Ronny is right. Both fought well, and we should cheer for them both," added the commentator. The crowd cheered the names of both participants, which made Manu a little emotional. He had never been cheered like that, and now that he looked at the crowd, he felt that his hard work had not gone to waste.
"There is no need to become emotional; it's just the start. We have to move to higher stages and become a lot stronger. It will waste your potential if you become satisfied with this much." Siad Vinay gave his hand to Manu to stand, and Manu looked at him momentarily before holding his hand and standing.
"You are right; this is just the beginning," He said as he clenched his fist. They started talking about other things. The other members had a smile on their faces when they saw their bond. They thought that a battle could lead to conflict between them.
The replays of their battles were repeatedly shown to entertain the crowd. Finally, the screens became blank again. "The Judges would now announce the result," said the commentator.
"You both fought well, starting with you, Manu. You tried to approach your opponent from the start and put pressure on him, forcing him into a defensive position. While you could not eliminate him, you were often very close," said one of the judges.
"Vinay, you knew you couldn't stand a chance at close range and tried to maintain some distance from your opponent. You were at a disadvantage from the start as you never got the time to cast your strong spells, but even with small spells, you performed well." said the female judge, pausing before continuing. "Curse spells have no effect on your opponent, which is one of the most advantageous things about a Dark Mage, but even without them, you were able to gain an advantage, due to which I believe you should be the winner."
Vinay nodded, and while Manu was a little sad, he said nothing. "You don't need to be sad, boy. You performed very well. The difference between your scores was not much; this is just a small setback; don't let it hinder your growth," said the last judge, who had many scars on his face.
"The winner of this battle is Vinay," Announced the commentator, and the crowd cheered for Vinay. This battle was very entertaining, and both participants performed way better than expected.
