Clap-Clap-Clap

The applause filled the arena as everyone turned their attention towards Anon.

“Mr. Jule, I believe it’s your turn to step down and fight,” Fiona remarked, looking at Anon.

“I know,” Anon replied as he rose from his seat and leaped into the arena.

Anon landed gracefully on the arena floor, acknowledging the audience with a smile as he waved his hand.

“Mr. Jule, please share your feelings about fighting on the side of Royalty,” Sam inquired.

“Just bring my opponent. I don’t care for idle chatter,” Anon responded with a stern expression.

“Very well. Now that Mr. Jule is here, let’s introduce his opponent.

Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Eldric Elson from Blossom Bliss Academy,” Sam announced.

As soon as Sam made the announcement, a rumbling sound echoed from the entrance hall of the arena.

“Is it getting warm in here?” A man with an average build, an elegant figure, a handsome face, and well-groomed hair remarked as he entered the arena. He exuded a refreshing energy and the pure scent of blossoms.

“Mr. Jule, huh?” Eldric inquired with a smile.

“Yes,” Anon replied with a serious demeanor.

“Don’t get too full of yourself, kid. Just because you have that ancient Trumpet doesn’t mean you’ll win this match. I’ll crush you like an ant and make you a laughingstock in front of everyone.

I did some research on your background. It’s said you mentally tormented a student named Oxmaul and then killed his entire family, except for his mother. Is that true?” Eldric asked with a smirk.

“Every word of it is true,” Anon responded without hesitation.

Eldric closed the distance between them and whispered in Anon’s ear, “Try me.”

Anon burst into laughter, a maniacal laugh that sent shivers down Eldric’s spine.

“Hmm…? What’s so amusing?” Eldric asked, confused.

“I find it amusing because you’ve just given me permission. Those who didn’t grant me permission suffered like weaklings. I’m curious to see what happens to you,” Anon replied with a psychopathic grin.

“Ahahah… What are we waiting for? Let’s start this match now,” Sam interjected as he stepped down from the stage and headed toward the Sand Timer Glass.

“Summon your weapons and prepare to fight,” Sam announced.

Eldric promptly summoned a wand into his hand, while Anon summoned nothing, standing there bare-handed.

“Aren’t you going to summon your weapon?” Eldric asked with a smirk.

“I don’t need them to deal with the likes of you,” Anon replied, his smile unnerving.

“Ah… that smile,” a woman sitting beside Jessica remarked.

Jessica turned to look at the woman, who turned out to be Eve, with Deris beside her.

“Excuse me? What’s wrong with his smile?” Jessica inquired, confused.

“Huh…? You wouldn’t understand. There’s nothing wrong with the smile. It’s just that whenever I’ve seen him smile like that, his opponents never left the arena with their sanity intact,” Eve explained.

“Ummm… Can you explain?” Jessica pressed for more information.

“Oh, you’ll see in just a minute,” Eve replied, her attention back on the arena.

“HoHoHo… You’re going to meet a gruesome end, and I’m going to relish it,” Eldric taunted as he noticed that Anon was fighting without a weapon.

“3… 2… 1… Fight!” Sam shouted as he flipped the sand timer glass, causing the sand to flow to the other side.

“Water Bullets!” Eldric shouted, summoning thousands of water bullets around him and firing them at Anon.

Anon sighed and raised his hand, stopping the water bullets in mid-air. He then released them, and they fell to the ground like ordinary droplets.

“Haha… Nice try,” Eldric remarked, immediately erecting a defensive barrier to protect himself from Anon’s counterattack.

However, to his surprise, Anon didn’t attack; he simply stood there, smiling.

“You missed your chance to attack me, loser,” Eldric taunted. “Icicle Shards.”

Eldric summoned thousands of icicle shards behind him. “Die!” he shouted as he hurled them toward Anon.

Once again, Anon raised his hand, using his telekinesis to stop all the icicle shards in mid-air, causing them to drop harmlessly to the ground.

“Shit…” Eldric muttered as he activated his defensive barrier once more. He was certain Anon would finally strike, but to his bewilderment, Anon remained motionless.

“Ladies and gentlemen, as you can see, Mr. Jule isn’t attacking Mr. Eldric; he’s merely blocking Eldric’s attacks. Is this some sort of challenge for Mr. Eldric, or is Mr. Jule merely mocking him?” Sam commented, laughing.

“You son of a… Are you making fun of me?” Eldric demanded angrily.

Anon merely smirked and reached into his inventory. Eldric strengthened his defensive barrier, thinking Anon was about to withdraw a weapon. To his shock, Anon pulled out a cigar.

Anon lit the cigar and took a long drag.

Puff

“What a delightful flavor,” Anon remarked as he exhaled a cloud of smoke.

“You, bastard! You want to toy with me?” Eldric shouted, pointing his wand at Anon and beginning to chant a spell. 𝚍ｏ𝚟𝚕.ｏｒｇ

“Ah, damn it… that’s a tier-3 spell. Mr. Jule needs to stop him before he completes the incantation,” Maison whispered.

“Shhh… Let me observe without any interruptions, Maison. It’s getting interesting,” Fiona ordered.

“Yes, my queen,” Maison replied, quieting down.

“Frost Nova…” Eldric chanted, releasing a beam of compressed ice directly at Anon’s face.

Anon inhaled a large plume of smoke into his mouth and flicked away his cigar.

His chest started shining into golden colour and his throat shone in a shade of light green colour as he looked at the frost Nova approaching towards his direction.

“Ah, **… cover your ears.” Jessica warned Eve and Deris as she covered her own ears.

Eve and Deris followed Jessica’s instructions and covered their ears as looked at Anon in confusion.

(Deafening Roar)

BHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

A thunderous roar erupted from Anon’s mouth, resembling the trumpet he had played earlier. Everyone in the Colosseum covered their ears, their eyes wide in astonishment.

The Frost Nova couldn’t even reach Anon due to the deafening roar’s ultimate sound waves , and Eldric felt an incredible force pushing him back.

His ears started bleeding and his skin started peeling off of his muscles.

Deafning Roar S-Rank Commentator Exclusive Skill

Deafening Roar is a legendary skill, attainable only by the most exceptional individuals who have reached the pinnacle of their abilities. It is a technique that harnesses the essence of raw power, channeling it through the practitioner’s very being to produce a devastating and awe-inspiring effect.

To wield the Deafening Roar, one must first gather their inner energy, drawing it into their chest with a profound focus. This energy is then meticulously channeled to enchant the vocal cords with the purest and most potent form of mana, a magical essence that transcends ordinary spells.

Once the enchanting process reaches its culmination, the stored energy in the practitioner’s chest is released with a force that defies comprehension. It courses through the vocal cords, transforming into an unparalleled sonic wave of destruction.

The resulting sound is short of cataclysmic. It is not merely a roar but a deafening explosion of sound, magnificently amplified and pinpointed with utmost precision onto a single designated target. Upon impact, the target is subjected to the full brunt of the unleashed energy, facing utter annihilation.
