Chapter 476: A Reversed Story (11)
It was an overwhelming victory... utterly one-sided.
No one could call it a ’duel.’ The result was utterly unexpected.
"T-This can’t be..."
Jeremy Skalven.
On his knees, trembling in disbelief, he stared blankly at the ground. The teaching assistant, acting as mediator and judge for the student duel, could only gape at Flame, his eyes wide with confusion.
"Hmph."
Flame stood tall, unscathed. With a casual flick of her wrist, she pushed her short hair back and raised her staff, its tip still glowing faintly. She pointed it at Jeremy, her expression calm and unyielding.
But Jeremy couldn’t rise. His body refused to obey.
With a reluctant sigh, the teaching assistant declared the verdict, his voice faltering.
"V-Victor... First-year Class S, Flame..."
Around them, the gathered students froze in shock. Jeremy’s followers, as well as the cadets of Stella Academy, looked on in stunned silence, mouths agape.
