Chapter 254: A General (1/2)

”If he has these soldiers, why hasn't he used them in the previous match?” Ellen muttered while observing Ignazio before finding his nose started bleeding. ”!!!”

Despite Ignazio's poker face, Ellen understood the reason he participated in this match instead of Enrica. This power could only be controlled for a period of time. It was proven when blood flowed out of his mouth. The skill must have put a huge toll on his mind.

With how cunning Theo was, Ignazio must have had no confidence in settling the fight within that time. Hence, Ellen changed her strategy and said, ”Sihan, he can't control this for long. We will buy enough time until he collapses.”

Sihan glanced at Ignazio and nodded before saying, ”On your left.”

Ellen squinted her eyes and pointed her index finger to the left.

”Frost Nova.”

”Tch.” Alys clicked her tongue because she was going around to attack them from behind. As long as they eliminated one of them, the battle would become one-sided.

”Bad girl.” Alys harrumphed and summoned burning charcoal, sending it to Ellen's Frost Nova.

The two clashed as the fire evaporated the ice but ended up frozen from the residual power of the Frost Nova.

Ellen raised her staff and tapped the ground twice with her staff.

The ground began to freeze, starting from her staff, spreading to half of the arena.

”Freezing World.”

With this slippery ice, the armors might slip and be left unguarded.

Alys needed to stop for a moment before Ignazio provided her with cover fire.

The ten archers changed their arrows into fire arrows and shot the ground near Ellen and Alys, melting the ice floor in an instant.

”…” Ellen wanted to use another skill, but something big happened.

Ignazio suddenly raised his sword and a horse that seemed to be thirty percent taller than a normal horse or those his cavalries rode on emerged from his shadow. The horse had black skin and a solemn look.

The horse stared at Ellen as if understanding the owner's target.

”There are two generals on the battlefield. The first is someone who stays in the rear while giving instruction so as to provide some sort of relief to their soldiers. The second is a general who rides his horse in front of everyone so as to inspire their soldiers.” Ignazio said with an aloof expression as he raised his sword.

His horse's front legs jumped while letting out a cry. That cry was the signal for the cavalries to regroup with him.

As the cavalries were about to arrive, Ignazio gently kicked the horse and started riding forward, targeting Ellen. ”And I am the latter.”

Ellen placed her hand on the ground. ”Ice Wave.”

Ice Crystals appeared in a fan-shaped area as they planned to kill Ignazio and his cavalry.
