The mont Orion made his move, every mage in the arena held their breath, anticipating the first strike, even Instructor Walter, who was acting as the referee, had disappeared from the middle of the arena, giving them ample space to fight to their hearts’ content.
As Orion’s fist drew closer, particles of water elent manifested in the air, coiling around his hand in a rotating fashion, forming a water drill that covered his fist, and the closer Orion approached, the faster and larger the water drill grew, Alec’s expression remained unchanged as he forcefully slamd his palms together.
From both sides, Orion noticed two rapidly moving boulders hurtling towards him, likely uprooted from the ground of the arena.
Orion couldn’t grasp how Alec had managed to create such a phenonon, but he knew that if he didn’t act, he would be crushed between the massive boulders.
In response, he erected water barriers on both his left and right sides, still confident that his defense could easily withstand Alec’s attack, Orion didn’t want to miss the opportunity to strike Alec first and gain an advantage.
With the water drill attack just inches away from piercing Alec’s head, a wide grin appeared on Orion’s face.
However, he also noticed that, in that critical mont, Alec’s expression remained blank.
Orion couldn’t fathom how soone facing imminent death could wear such an expression.
’Maybe he’s just shocked silly, This will be an easy kill, I’ve just been exerting myself needlessly all this while," Orion thought to himself.
But then, he heard the sounds of sothing breaking.
That sound sent a wave of foreboding through Orion, and in the next split second, he was crushed in the middle by the two colossal boulders, they collided with him at full speed, with Orion’s right fist still extended just inches away from Alec, the water drill dissipated, unable to deliver its intended strike.
"Co on! Don’t tell that’s all!" Alec’s voice pierced through the crowd of shocked onlookers.
They could hardly believe their eyes, they knew what they were witnessing was true, but so part of their brains refused to accept that they had just witnessed the seemingly invincible Orion being smashed by two enormous boulders a re three seconds into the battle.
They struggled to make sense of what had happened, everything had occurred so quickly.
With their focus fixed on Alec and Orion in the center, they hadn’t registered the incredible speed at which the boulders had hurtled towards Orion, The impact was so swift and powerful that it reached him in an instant, even after smashing through his water barrier.
It almost seed as if the barrier had failed to diminish the force behind the collision.
Alec began to walk away, thinking the battle was over, but soon he heard a voice.
"We are not finished yet!"
The two boulders that had struck Orion were sent flying towards the crowd.
In that mont, the mages within the boulders’ path panicked, contemplating how they would defend against such a powerful attack, however, just as the boulders neared, they abruptly halted, held in place by the translucent shield.
A collective sigh of relief swept through those who had been in danger, realizing they were spared from becoming collateral damage in a fight that was not their own, as Alec glanced down and noticed his feet were subrged in water.
In fact, the entire fighting ring of the arena had been covered in water, with Orion capitalizing on the transparent shield’s coverage to his advantage.
