Chapter 714 - Come on Out, Fatty Fatty Ugly Duckling!
Richard looked deep into Krassu’s eyes, then turned to the depressed Kola, and said, “Kola, I command you to battle her. Defeat is not an option!”
“Really?!” Kola’s eyes immediately lit up.
He was of the opinion that Krassu must’ve taught Amy some special tricks for her to ascend five levels of the tower in 80 seconds. In fact, he was sure that she had cheated somehow!
However, if they were going to have a fair duel, then he was confident that he would be able to attain victory and recover his lost honor.
Krassu also turned to Amy with a smile as he said, “Little Amy, you’ll have to fight him in a short while. There’s no need to hold back; hit him as hard as you can!”
“Alright!” Amy nodded eagerly before casting her gaze toward her surroundings as if she were looking for something.
Richard waved a hand through the air, and a large white circle with a radius of 10 meters appeared at the center of the first floor of the Magus Tower. A serious look appeared on his face as he announced, “This circle will be the venue for the battle. The loser will be the one who falls out of the white circle or no longer has the power to continue fighting or concedes the battle.”
“Little brat, I’m going to show you what a true 5th-tier magic caster is made of!” Kola aimed a vicious glare at Amy before making his way into the circle as he loudly announced, “Magus Tower, Kola!”
“I found one!” Amy let go of Mag’s hand as she skipped over to a table, and picked up a little chair. She then also skipped into the circle as she responded in kind. “Mamy Restaurant, Amy!”
“Mamy Restaurant? What’s that? Is it really a restaurant, or is it some kind of mysterious organization?”
“Why is she carrying a chair into the circle? And it’s a foldable chair as well. Is she planning to use that as a weapon?”
“Could it be… that she really did inflict those injuries onto Master Brent?”
All of the magic casters looked on with curiosity in her eyes.
That’s a good way to advertise our restaurant. Mag nodded with approval. Amy really was the perfect mascot for Mamy Restaurant. Perhaps it would be a good idea to start thinking about advertising the establishment. After all, one restaurant alone was earning revenue at a rate that was still too slow, so expansion had to take place sooner or later.
However, as he looked at Amy holding a foldable chair as she sized up Kola, he couldn’t help but be reminded of Sargeras. Could it be that she was really going to use that chair to fight Kola?
“Foldable chairs are very commonplace objects that are often underrated in battle. I’m very pleased that she’s able to source weapons from her environment rather than dogmatically cling to her staff. As expected of my prized disciple.” Krassu nodded with an expression of approval. He was clearly not concerned in the slightest that Amy wasn’t using her staff.
Kola looked at the chair in Amy’s hands with furrowed brows as he asked, “You’re not going to use a wand?”
“Master tells me that as long as I have magic in my heart, anything can be used as a weapon, so why do I have to use a wand? I think this chair is quite good.” Amy shrugged with a rather perplexed look.
“Insolent little brat!” A furious look appeared on Kola’s face. This little brat was clearly not taking him seriously at all!
This Big Cabbage is so weird; why is he getting angry just because I’m using a chair? Amy was very confused as she looked at Kola. She then shook her head as she thought to herself, Whatever. I just learned some special chair-swinging techniques from Big Sister Irina earlier; I’ll test them on his face.
Richard looked at the chair in Amy’s hands, and his expression darkened even further. This little brat was intent on humiliating the Magus Tower, just as Krassu was. However, he wasn’t concerned in the slightest, as he didn’t believe that a four-year-old little brat would be able to beat Kola with just a chair even for a single second. As such, he loudly announced, “There’s no need for either of you to hold back. If either of you fall into a dangerous situation, we’ll step in immediately. However, the one that is forced to receive our protection will be deemed as the loser. Let the battle begin!”
Kola was holding a bluish-silver wand in his hand as he looked at Amy with a cold smile. “Remember my name, little brat: my name is Kola!”
A contemplative look appeared on Amy’s face before she shook her head, and replied, “I prefer Big Cabbage…”
“You!!” Kola’s expression became even more enraged.
“Are we starting? I’m going to attack now.” Amy looked at Kola as she slowly raised her chair.
“Even though Kola was comprehensively defeated in the tower ascending competition, I think he has a good chance of winning in a practical battle like this.”
“I wouldn’t be so sure about that. Melee magic casters are invincible in short-range battles. That circle is not very big at all, so I think Amy has a better chance of winning.”
“A chair versus a wand; that sure is a rare match-up.”
All of the magic casters were looking on with expectant expressions. No one had been able to witness the tower ascending trials, so they didn’t know just how powerful Amy was. As such, this battle was something that they were very much looking forward to watching.
“Come! I’ll only need to cast one spell to defeat you.” Kola looked at Amy with a disdainful expression before adopting a pose he thought to be quite cool, aiming his wand at Amy in a slanted manner.
As soon as he had adopted that pose, a chair took over his entire field of vision before landing on his face with unavoidable speed and unerring accuracy.
Three magic shields were erected in quick succession, but all of them were shattered by the seemingly ordinary wooden chair.
“No!!!”
The chair crashed into Kola’s face amid a cry of horror.
“Thump!”
A crisp crack erupted as wooden splinters flew in all directions. Kola was also sent flying like a cannonball, and only stopped after sliding along the ground for quite a distance. By then, the left half of his face had already swelled up significantly.
“This…”
All of the magic casters who were looking forward to a spectacular battle were flabbergasted. As soon as the battle had begun, what appeared to be two balls of fire had suddenly materialized beneath Amy’s feet. She then instantly appeared before Kola and sent him flying with her chair.
“I’m starting to believe what Elder Brent said earlier…” A magic caster gulped. With her speed and power, even a 7th-tier magic caster would most likely be wounded if they were caught off guard.
The magic caster beside him nodded in agreement.
“Is Kola going to lose just like that?”
All of the magic casters harbored complex emotions as they looked at Kola, who was lying at the edge of the white circle. If news were to spread of the fact that he had been defeated by a single attack from a little four-year-old girl, the Magus Tower’s reputation would be swept to the ground.
Kola himself was also completely dumbstruck. The searing pain shooting through the left side of his face assured him that this was not a dream, but he felt as if he were living in a nightmare. It was completely inexplicable to him that he had just been swatted flying with a chair to the face by a little girl.
“Kola, are you just going to keep lying there?!” Richard let loose an enraged roar.
Kola shuddered as he rose to his feet; he was feeling rather uneasy as he looked at Richard’s cold expression. He then turned his attention to Amy, and wasted no time with words as he immediately began to chant a spell. A massive blue python quickly took shape in front of him before pouncing toward Amy with its huge mouth completely agape.
“Come on out, Fatty Fatty Ugly Duckling!” Amy pointed toward the python in an unhurried manner.
