Chương 247: The Alternative Trap (Part 3)
Shirone's body ached, but he felt a small spark of satisfaction. He had managed to fight back, even just a little. But a sad thought crept in: This is all I can do.
He turned to face the target, feeling a bit angry at himself. Everyone in the big Colosseum was watching him, completely silent. Shirone took a deep breath and focused all his energy.
"Halo!" he shouted.
A light, bright like a star, shot out from his hand. It slowly drew a giant, glowing circle in the air. Shirone pushed with all his might, making the circle as huge as he could.
He remembered what his friend Amy had told him after his last big fight. She said his Halo magic could overwhelm people who had super-strong senses. He was sure someone powerful here would be affected by it.
This might be a small act of rebellion, but he had to try. He had to create a chance for himself.
Finally, the Halo was complete—a beautiful, radiant ring of light hovering in the air.
Nearby, Amy quickly looked around at the crowd. She saw their friend Reina frowning. If the Halo is bothering Reina, her senses must be incredibly sharp, Amy thought.
The important nobles in their fancy clothes didn't seem to care. But the strong warriors protecting them were reacting differently. They were gritting their teeth, trying to fight off the effect of the light.
Shirone noticed this and thought, 'Hmm… they're definitely strong.'
Two of the main nobles, Zion and Wuorin, didn't look shocked at all.
