"COMA? I thought you said she only suffered minor wounds!" exclaid Alex, montarily forgetting his own pain.
"Calm down, as I ntioned, she isn't severely injured. We've already treated her wounds, though she remains unconscious. Nevertheless, her life isn't at risk; it's as if she's resting after exerting herself."
Hearing his father's explanation, Alex cald down.
"And now what ? What are we going to do ?" Wondered Alex.
"Nothing, we are just going to wait for your sister to wake up, then we will try to understand what happened" replied Theodore, already returning to his book.
'I guess we don't have much of an alternative,' sighed Alex while closing his eyes to sleep.
Ti passed, and it took three weeks for Alia to finally awaken from her coma state, even then she was still weak and had to wait for one week to fully recover.
When asked what happened, she essentially described the sa events as Alex, except she claid she could control the luminous particles, though she didn't understand why it exploded.
To truly understand what occurred, their father decided to replay the entire day. He called the two experts who had fought on that day and ordered them to reenact the battle exactly as it happened.
As for Alia, he instructed her to see if she could observe those particles again. Just like last ti, she could see them perfectly, while Alex and Theodore couldn't see anything.
"Try to rge them together like last ti" instructed Theodore.
"But dad-"
"Don't worry, I will protect her with my mana"
Following that brief exchange, Alia began rging the luminous particles around her. Just like before, they beca visible to Alex and his father as they fused together.
As the rging continued around Alia, the particles suddenly exploded!
Fortunately, Theodore did as he said and protected Alia from the explosion.
She ca out of the explosion unscathed, but a mont later, she lost consciousness.
"It's as I guessed" sighed Theodore as he caught Alia before she fell.
"What's your conclusion?" asked Alex as he took the unconscious Alia from his father and carried her in a princess hold.
"Those particles are energy, more specifically residual energy, as for how she could control those residual energies..." he glanced at Alia and continued "...it's an ability of hers, her third ability"
"I see" replied Alex.
"You don't seem as surprised as I thought you would be" remarked Theodore.
"Well, I had a doubt that it would be sothing like that, so it doesn't surprise that much, what is bogging is why she loses consciousness each ti she uses this ability".
"It's quite obvious; her body can't keep up, which is why every ti she uses it, she falls unconscious".
"It does make sense" said Alex as he started walking towards Alia's room.
His father followed him, and soon Alia was lying on her bed.
"And now what ?" Asked Alex.
"Now that we know what this ability is and how it affects her, she will simply never use it" replied Theodore with a somber expression.
"It won't be easy to convince her to abandon her ability" said Alex with a chuckle.
"I'm not saying that she should abandon it, just that until her body can support her using this ability, it's better to forget about it and not use it" replied Theodore.
Two weeks later, when Alia woke up, Alex and his father filled her in on about her ability and then forbade her from using this ability.
At first, she wanted to throw a tantrum, but they cald her by explaining to her that she could use it when her body got stronger.
This is why, now that she has finally used this ability, everyone is shocked, as nobody had ever heard about it before as Theodore had forbidden them from speaking about it to others.
'If her Cell master ability can be called a cheat, then I don't even know how to address this one, even now I don't have a clue on how to deal with this ability' sighed Alex.
Residual blast allowed Alia to control the residual energy of every ability that she wanted, and the explosion that she could cause had characteristics of the residual energy she used.
How can one counter such a broken ability, knowing that there was residual energy even in a seemingly inactive environnt!
The only weakness of this ability is the fact that it feed on stamina rather than on mana, but even that weakness is relative, if soone like Alex that can enhance his stamina with points got their hands on such an ability, then that person would beco a real nace for his enemies.
"Hey, do you know what this thing she used was ?" Asked Talia.
The mont they heard her question, everyone turned to Alex, wanting to know what Alia did.
Alia's future opponents were even more concentrated than the rest, since it was them that would have to go against this dangerous power of Alia, so, better gather so information.
Alas, Alex's answer disappointed them.
"No comnt"
"Tsk, useless" growled the participants.
anwhile
"The first battle ended with Alia winning!" Exclaid Adrian.
"Seeing how you easily won, I'm feeling a little embarrassed to have asked you to give up if you didn't want to be hurt" said Ector with a bitter smile.
"Haha, don't worry about that" replied Alia with a smile.
After that, the two of them walked out of the arena while the next fighters made their way to the center of the arena.
"It's one win for !" Said Alia as she took the seat at the extremity, next to Alex.
"Congratulations, you did well" replied Alex while patting Alia on the head.
"Can I have a kiss as a reward ?"
"Didn't we already establish that you would receive a reward only if you got to the final?"
"Pretty please?" Asked Alia with puppy eyes.
"Sigh, okay, but only on the cheek for now" whispered Alex as he gave Alia a kiss on her cheek.
"It will do for now~" replied Alia with a blush.
The weird interaction between the two siblings did not go unnoticed by the others, it's just that they decided to chalk it off as the two of them being close, but only gods would know what their reactions would be if they knew that Alex was actually fondling her ass secretly!
'Ahh, so soft!'
