After Being Sold Out By The Empire, I Decide To Assist The Demon King Chapter 217 - 93 Instant Kill Technique

"Hello, Yila... I often hear about your exploits."

The female mage nad Severia said this as she stood in front of Yila; although she said this, her eyes were filled with eager emotions... which was quite normal.

"Ah, thank you... So, you knew your opponent was in advance?"

Yila responded, his wings, resembling tattered cloth, folded behind him... This was the power of the [First Wing Pillar·Witch Demon·Wing Spread]; after all, he was no longer a mage, so he had to use this thod to duel with spells.

Using the wings of the Crimson Dragon wasn’t out of the question either... but that would be too unfair, and defeating the opponent would only make them feel resentful and serve no purpose.

The opponent would just think that the [Governor is much stronger than a mage], and wouldn’t realize they still had much to learn.

Yila said this while watching the other’s serious expression. He continued, "So, have you studied your opponent? aning ... have you watched the recordings of my past duel techniques?"

To Yila’s question, the female mage simply shook her head.

"If you want to defeat a stronger opponent, studying them is very important."

The female mage grew visibly impatient with Yila’s ntor-like advice and said, "I know you’re a formidable opponent, but is it really necessary to study the enemy? I could spend that ti practicing my spells."

Yila didn’t argue back, understanding that although the other was proud, she was not condescending. He simply chuckled and said, "Ha, true enough."

As Yila seed to delay making a move, so of the new students who didn’t know him well began to boo... and were promptly scolded by their ntors.

It wasn’t just because Yila had a good relationship with them, but also... mages weren’t like animals in an arena, nor gladiators; boos should have no place on or off the stage.

"Well then, shall we begin the battle?"

Yila said this as he lightly stepped back, uttering words familiar to those who knew the duel... eyes of the students lit up.

Noticing this, the female mage could only assu a guarded posture, nodding in agreent to start the battle, ready to chant at any mont.

However, Yila still didn’t rush to make a move.

"Next, I will use [Pure White Swift Blade]... this is my preview."

After Yila said this, his classmates stood up, ready to watch a famous scene recreated... thanks to this mage nad Severia who hadn’t watched Yila’s previous duel records.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t waste her energy pondering *Is Yila telling the truth?* in such a peculiar manner... because, although it seed they were still conversing, Yila had already started chanting.

"Are you looking down on ?"

The female mage nad Severia said this, fixating on Yila’s every move, not knowing why she felt a sense of pressure from him... from his flawless stance.

Although he simply stood there, the pressure was imnse.

*From which direction, with what spell, will he attack?*

Severia didn’t know, but she was confident in her [High-speed Chanting]... as soon as Yila started chanting, she could quickly chant a counter-spell.

—That’s what Severia thought.

Severia knew Yila was strong, but thought she could defeat him with her wisdom and skills... thinking he hadn’t attacked yet out of fear of losing.

"I’d heard you were impressive, Yila; I’ve been looking forward to this duel for a long ti, but you..."

Then, in the mont everyone watched, as Severia grew impatient and couldn’t help but start speaking... at the mont her attention was inevitably divided by her own words.

"Blood!!!"

Yila uttered this single syllable almost instantly, using his explosive speed to rush to Severia’s side. He crouched low; scarlet blood gathered and solidified in his hand as if in slow motion.

A long, crystal-clear red blade, positioned in the sa spot as a sleeve blade, quickly swung towards Severia’s wrist... leaving a thin blood mark on her hand.

At the sa ti, Severia’s mind went blank from the pain, and she loosened her grip on her magic wand.

"Whew!"

Like a gale passing by, the spell nad [Pure White Swift Sword·Blood] was placed in front of Severia’s neck... forcing her to tilt her head slightly to avoid hurting her neck.

At this mont, the cloak behind Severia slowly fell... the wind stirred by Yila’s sudden approach dissipated with his victory.

"Huff... huff... huff..."

Although she hadn’t had ti to take any action, Severia still panted heavily, lifting her head with effort, her eyes filled with fear over the sudden turn of events.

"Yila Elkaras wins."

The Beastman Mage presiding over the White Tower eting announced the outco with a voice devoid of emotion... At this point, Yila’s seniors and classmates beca rather uninterested.

Because Yila didn’t brag as he used to, he simply retracted the spell, turned around, and left... while saying, "So, preliminary research is quite important."

"Wait, Yila... how did you do it?"

Severia clutched her chest, still unable to accept her defeat, not daring to look at the silence from her classmates... As soone who always studied as the undefeated, most talented student, she was at a loss for how to proceed.

But before that, Severia didn’t understand how Yila could just rush forward without chanting.

"Because I used my self-created spell [Pure White Swift Blade·Blood], the chanting is very short; it’s just a simple chant of [Pure White Swift Blade·Blood]... you can recall it."

Faced with Yila’s unreserved explanation, Severia realized her naivety but still gritted her teeth, saying, "But, even if it’s a modified Pure White Swift Blade spell, it’s not the Pure White Swift Blade... yet you said..."

Yila had undoubtedly lied when he said, "I will use Pure White Swift Blade."

"When I said, ’Well, then, the battle begins,’ from that mont... it was within the scope of the duel. Using every possible ans is part of the duel."

Yila smiled, not denying his deceit; he simply turned to leave, saying, "But even without my trickery, you would still suffer a crushing defeat... if you want more details, do your research."

*So... what exactly had happened in the past?!*
