Magic System in a Parallel World

The moment the match started, Helia ’s opponent, Bram Tombend quickly summoned a massive dome made of earth magic around him, barricading himself in it.

His intention was clear— to stall out the match for as long as possible so that Opal Tempest had more time to recover her mana and to make Helia waste her energy.

Although this kind of defensive strategy isn ’t illegal in the tournament, it was frowned upon by the audience because it was boring to watch someone essentially repeatedly hitting a wall.

However, the audience appeared to be quite excited for some reason.

”How many strikes do you think it will take the Crimson Witch to break Bram ’s defense this year? ”

”She ’s broken his defenses with a single hit three times now. I doubt it will be any different this year. ”

”I wouldn ’t be so sure about that. I heard that the Red Moon Academy had changed their training regimen at the beginning of last year and have shown tremendous improvements since then. ”

”Let ’s see if that training was worth it. ”

After Bram enclosed himself in multiple defensive magic spells, Helia released a low sigh, ”You never learn, do you? No matter how many defenses you set up, it won ’t stop me from reaching you. ”

Despite her words, Helia did not immediately attack his defenses and decided to give him several minutes to prepare.

Once she believed that enough time had passed, she made her move.

”Ready or not, here I come. ”

After taking a deep breath, Helia ’s body began overflowing with mana, and flames started appearing on her uniform without damaging it.

Her red hair fluttered behind her back like a cape, and her amber eyes changed colors, becoming reddish orange, just like her flames, and they seemed to be alive, almost as though it contained flames within.

The audience were at the edge of their seats once again when they saw this.

”I have been waiting for this moment since the last tournament! No matter how many times I see it, I am always excited! ”

Many of the spectators knew what Helia was trying to do because she had used this same strategy to defeat Bram on multiple occasions.

Once she had gathered enough mana, Helia began to chant her spell.
