CHAPTER XLI: Mana PoolLotus blocked Beelzebub with a huge boulder of cosmic rock and he vanished immediately on the air, teleporting to Caya. They are talking to each other but we can’t hear them. What are they planning to do? I don’t know what to do on my seat. This fight gave me extreme cold sweats.Beelzebub, on the other hand, just easily obliterated the meteor rock Lotus has summoned just by using his fist. Then, he absorbed all the smithereens of rocks and dust particles scattered on the air.Meanwhile, Caya and Lotus flew in different directions. The woman persistently fires Beelzebub with light arrows using her celestial weapon even though Beelzebub’s body just absorbed them. The demon intently looked at Caya with a furious expression in his face. He is fuming mad right now. I gulped, trying to remove the lump blocking my throat. But Caya didn’t falter. Beelzebub rushed to her but she didn’t make a move to evade the demon.

CHAPTER XLIII: Death and LoveWe were given a 15-minute break before the next match begins. So we took that opportunity to lament for Lotus' death. With Glade's magic, we scattered white lilac flowers on the air to guide Lotus' soul to heaven. The fragrant scent of them penetrated our nose. Some of us can’t help it but to cry. We were all disheartened by his lost.Lotus was a good and kind friend to all of us. He was silent and a keen observer most of the times but his words to us were genuine every time he spoke. He was perfect example of a man with virtue, too. I never forget how he put his trust on me and how he made me believe in myself, my own strength. He was really a one of a kind person.We sadly made a group hug and synchronously heaved a deep breath after we released each other from the hug.I diverted my gaze to sleeping Caya. She drained her mana just to defeat Beelzebub and avenge her one true love. Caya is deeply in love with Lotus. Ev

CHAPTER XLV: Almirah’s CurseAlmirah raised her two hands. Her celestial weapon, Aquaria, just materialized on the air, floating in between her palms. It was glowing; surrounded with blue lights. Droplets of water rose on the air. They gathered together on her body. The others went on her head, forming a sparkling diamond crown. Her dress suddenly changed into a swim wear. Blue scales started to cover her arms and body. And her legs transformed into a mermaid's tail. I knew it. She just fused herself with her celestial spirit. It’s called Zodiac Union. We can clearly saw her transformation because she is floating on the surface of the water. We gasped in awe and bewilderment. She is amazing. And cool. “She’s gorgeous,” Nicanor whispered but I clearly heard it. His mouth is wide opened, showing amazement on Almirah’s transformation. I smell something fishy. I want to ask him but now is not the time for that. I just

CHAPTER XLVII: Rampaging GoddessBewilderment and deep fascination engulfed our whole system as the golden light slowly disappeared, leaving a beautiful maiden with two pairs of golden wing at her back. One pair is located at her back below her shoulders and the other one above her waist but is smaller than the first pair. I think this is just an auxiliary pair of wings.She is stunningly beautiful. She has a long wavy golden hair, pair of ethereal ginger-colored eyes and a mesmerizing physique really fit for a goddess. But who is she? Goddess of the Holy Sun? Haven’t heard of it yet. “Who are you, young lady? Non-fighters can’t interfere while the fight is ongoing or instant death is coming for you. Better leave the arena now,” Ballam advised to the goddess. The woman shot him with a death glare.“How could you talk lowly to a goddess, you imbecile? And who told you I am a non-fighter. Can’t you remember this body

 CHAPTER XLIX: In the Name of Love “Suzaine… Suzaine is now g-gone,” Almirah said, stuttering, as she regained her consciousness. Tears welled up in her eyes non-stop and she cried as if there’s no tomorrow anymore. We are all hurt, but among us, Almirah is the one who’s in pain the most. I averted my gaze at her and firmly closed my eyes. I couldn’t stand watching her crying. It’s too heartbreaking. No one is used to a loss of someone whom you treated special. “First was Lotus, and followed by Suzaine. They died. That only means they were weak. So who will be next?” Vela audaciously stated as she moved her stare from one comrade to another. Was she insulting our fallen comrades? But I didn’t see any hint of mockery in her face. Well, no one knows if she’s insulting Lotus and Suzaine because she’s almost unpredictable unlike Caya who wa
