Rise of the Twelve Star Mage

Chapter 54: Two Rings: THE TOP 4

After delivering a devasting blast to the giant Sea Serpent it was thought that Jonathan had slain the beast. But the Sea Serpent lives as it begins its final attack.

Everyone stares up into the sky waiting for the attack to commence.

"Jonathan!" Jericho yells marching towards him as he looks up at the sky. Jericho grabs him by the collar of his uniform "What the hell was that I thought you said you could kill it". "I did I was not expecting this," he says calming as Jericho was moments away from knocking it out.

Walking away from Jonathan. Jericho paces back and forth thinking of a plan until he finally speaks to everyone "All right we just gotta give it one last final attack and-" As he turns he's met with mana-exhausted mages who almost spent the whole day exerting mana. With a frustrated look, Jericho's face turned into disappointment.

SLAM

"Shit. Does that mean we're all going to be sent back? No one passes?" Ezekiel says lying on the floor.

"No, that can't be the case someone has to pass right?" Bianca says.

"She's right plus there's gotta be a way" Eriko follows up helping Bianca to her feet.

"Um, I can try something" Azalea speaks up.

"Azalea are you sure you want to do that" Bella asks. "You'll be out for a while" Lily warns her.

"I-I can see if it can work I mean who else has anything there exhausted" Azalea stands as she steps up to the front line.

"I'll go," Suneeta says. "What I didn't get to fight anyone 'cause we were too busy being "passive" in this tournament" as she mocks the way Jonathan was acting in the tournament.

Jonathan shrugs "It was working wasn't it?"

"It was pretty boring but yeah thanks for allowing us to be in this top spot"

"I'll go as well" Rose steps up. "I wanna see how well you have gotten with YOUR weapons Sunneta"

"I think I gotten a hang of them since we were younger"

"Her weapon. Thats right I saw it in her memories she often trained with Rose what was it again?" Eriko thinks back to "The Fog of Eternal Memories".

Sunneta extends both her arms out as a set of Wind and Fire wheels appear in her hands they are red, yellow, and orange in color, with both being shaped like the sun. It looked like she was holding a disc with spikes on it but upon closer examination, its round shape with the sunlight being the razor-sharp points sticking out of it was an interesting weapon to look at.

"You were hiding that the whole time you were worth me?" Jonathan with an upbeat tone.

SHEATH

Jericho puts his sword to his neck.

"That's enough of you now you just watch from down here as we take down this guy once and for all. After we're done beating him then we'll duel"

"Ok when you slay the beasts we'll duel"

"I'll bring you girls close to the beast hop on the fists"

"OK" "Right"

Rose, Suneeta, and Azalea hop on the fists as they fly up close to the Sea Serpent. Jericho leads the way as he eagerly wants to take down the beast.

[6 duos 4 minutes]

"Hmm" Jonathan looks at the clock "So only we remain" he then sets his sights on Valerus.

"What are you thinking" Eriko asks Jonathan.

"Oh nothing," he remarks with a smile on his face.
