Elias didn’t go out for lunch today—he was tired from roaming around all morning when he had to go outside on a personal matter, so he ate in his room. He was lying down and resting when suddenly he heard loud noises outside.
He looked out the window—and what he saw left him completely stunned.
Rowan had ntioned before that Logan was strong.
But now, after seeing it with his own eyes...
he was completely shocked.
"That kid, he isn’t normal at all." He murmured.
The fight continued in the training yard.
Logan’s plan was simple—don’t reveal full strength until absolutely necessary. So during Alice’s kidnapping... and again during the dungeon break... he was forced to let loose.
But today, there was no such pressure.
Still, he couldn’t refuse Rowan’s request, after all the information he could gather because of him.
So, he decided to give Rowan what he wanted—a proper match—and just hoped it wouldn’t cause any unnecessary trouble.
He already had his hands full with the Third Eye Sect.
In the center of the yard, both of them were fully focused on the fight.
Logan bent slightly forward... and then burst ahead, charging at Rowan.
The ground didn’t crack—but where his foot pushed off, a black burn mark remained. Even with artifact reinforcents, the ground couldn’t fully handle the pressure.
With a fiery fist, Logan aid a powerful punch straight at Rowan’s chest.
At the sa ti, he manipulated gravity—trying to slow Rowan’s movent.
But Rowan didn’t try to block it.
Instead, he pushed himself back with all his strength and, while mid-air, hurled a massive fireball at Logan.
Logan reacted quickly and ford a wind barrier in front of him.
The fireball slamd into it, forcing Logan to slide back nearly ten ters with the shield.
But the fireball still didn’t lose its montum.
It shattered the barrier and went straight for Logan.
He sohow dodged and flipped high into the air, barely escaping, and landed so distance away.
Rowan had figured out Logan’s strengths and weaknesses.
Logan was stronger—but only in close combat. The reason was obvious—his body strengthening technique. Physically, he was on a completely different level.
But when it ca to magic?
Rowan was far ahead.
So no matter how hard Logan tried, Rowan kept avoiding close combat—fighting smart and striking from range.
Logan charged in again with another punch. Rowan tried to leap back again—
But suddenly, he couldn’t.
He looked down.
His left foot was frozen to the ground.
Logan had trapped him using ice magic—just to stop him from gaining distance.
Seeing Rowan stuck, Logan smirked.
His plan had worked.
But suddenly—Logan was yanked to a stop too.
He looked down—
His leg had been caught by a fire shackle.
And before he could even react or express his shock—
A lightning ball slamd straight into his chest.
Logan was sent flying again—like a ragdoll.
Then he crashed into the ground and bounced once before finally coming to a stop.
The servants standing on the balcony stared with their mouths wide open.
Even the guards by the main gate were in the sa state of amazent.
What had started as a friendly spar filled with doubts...had now transford into a breathtaking duel that no one could look away from.
Upstairs, in his room, Elias was in the sa state.
Stunned. Speechless.
His eyes were glued to the fight below.
Logan groaned slightly and pushed himself up.
He dusted himself off while standing up straight.
Despite taking two powerful hits, there wasn’t a trace of anger or frustration on his face.
In fact—he looked like he was enjoying it.
A smirk tugged at the corner of his lips.
Rowan called out playfully,
"Logan, didn’t you say I should try to land a hit one more ti?
I’ve let you taste that more than once by now, haven’t I?"
His tone wasn’t arrogant or mocking.
Just teasing—as if he was having fun, and trying to make it even more exciting by provoking his opponent a little.
"Well, the match didn’t turn out to be as easy as I thought," Logan said with a slight smile.
Rowan grinned in return.
"Now be prepared for my final move. This is the strongest attack I have right now."
He raised both hands into the air.
Five massive fireballs began to form—hovering above him, swirling with blazing heat.
But these weren’t ordinary fireballs.
Sparks of lightning crackled through them, rging with the flas in a violent fusion of elents.
It was a fire-lightning combo—and Rowan had conjured five of them at once.
Logan had a chance.
He could rush in and close the gap to interrupt the casting—before Rowan could even launch.
But he didn’t.
Why?
Even Logan didn’t know.
Maybe because Rowan had called it his strongest attack...
And Logan wanted to see if he could face it head-on.
The five orbs grew larger and brighter, their glow flickering dangerously.
Finally, Rowan said—.
"Be ready."
And then he launched them all at once.
From behind the pillar, Daliah stepped out, unable to contain her excitent any longer.
She wanted a clear view.
Up on the balcony, even the servants leaned forward, gripping the railing in nervous anticipation.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
The fire-lightning spheres shot forward like cannon fire.
Logan quickly created a dual-layered defense—a wind barrier followed by an ice wall, while also manipulating gravity to try and slow them down.
But it wasn’t enough.
Creak!
The mont the attacks hit, the barriers shattered like glass, torn apart by the overwhelming force.
Even gravity manipulation barely helped.
After all, this was the full power of a Tier 3 mage—and not just any Tier 3. Rowan was one of the most talented in the kingdom.
BAM!
The first sphere hit.
Logan dodged at the last second, but the impact still knocked him away slightly.
BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM!
Each of the remaining blasts followed, exploding in a chain reaction.
The area where Logan had been standing was now covered in dust and smoke.
Rowan was standing in his place, staring at the spot where Logan had been.
But everyone else staring at Rowan’s direction in shock.
Daliah had both hands over her mouth, stunned.
Rowan took a cautious step forward, trying to see if Logan was okay—
But then, he froze.
He felt it.
Soone was standing right behind him.
