Kye was about to shoot another Holy ray while Sylvia was ready to use all her power to end this fight. But at the last moment, Kye's palm faced another direction. Instead of aiming for one of Sylvia's vital points, Kye aimed for the water sword that was blocking him from moving.
*Pheww*
*Splash*
The water sword soon lost its shape, letting Kye move freely now. The spear in his stomach was long gone now, so nothing hold him anymore.
Sylvia didn't expect such a thing, so she stopped in her track for a moment. But this single moment almost cost her head.
Kye put his sword off Sylvia's shoulder and swung it horizontally to cut her head. But since Sylvia wasn't blocked by anything too, she managed to duck right in time. Not without losing some hair though.
When she ducked, she formed another water sword to try and cut Kye's leg, but the latter just shot another Holy ray from his palm during the forming process.
"Tch."
Sylvia clicked her tongue seeing that and decided to step back a little, but Kye didn't let her. He aimed another ray at her, forcing her to protect herself instead of dodging. Water formed around her body and managed to block the ray. Though, it was close to damaging her again. But while she was stopping the ray, Kye took the opportunity she gave him by swinging his sword to her head multiple times.
Sylvia managed to dodge them all, but after each dodge, the accuracy of Kye's swing was getting better and better. So much that after his tenth swing, he managed to scratch her cheek.
'I need to back off,' Sylvia thought in hurry. 'He's putting too much pressure on me.'
When Kye was about to swing again, Sylvia made another water wall with spikes coming out from it, forcing Kye to jump back a few times. He would have liked to stop the formation as he did earlier, but the water that was forming on the ground was too much, so there wasn't any point in stopping it since it would just have been a question of time before the wall emerged.
And since he guessed that there would have spikes that will come out of the wall, he stepped back instead of swinging his sword. He couldn't risk the fight since both of them only had 20% of their max HP. And at this point, any mistake will cost them the fight.
The wall then liquified and all the water came back to Sylvia. Her energy was dangerously low, so she couldn't form water out of thin air as easily as before. So she needed to use what was already formed.
Around 8 meters were separating them. And both of them were looking into each other's eyes.
The tension was building.
Everyone kept their breath in.
The spectators didn't make any noises.
And when the tension was at its highest, Kye rushed again toward Sylvia.
The latter tried to stop him as soon as possible because she understood that the range of Kye's ray was around five meters, so she couldn't let him enter this range. But her opponent was faster than her new-formed whip, and the moment he entered the 5 meters range, he shot two Holy rays.
Sylvia could see that there was a one-second delay between them, so even if she blocked one, she would need to take the second one.
So instead of keeping the distance between them, Sylvia ducked a little to dodge both rays. They flew right above her head. If she was just a little higher, she would have gotten two holes in her head.
She then transformed her whip into a sword of the same length as Kye's sword and created a spinning spear that was levitating just in front of her when she ran toward him. The spear spun really fast.
Moreover, since a spear had a longer reach than his sword, Kye would have some difficulties reaching her.
But it was what she thought.
The spear was hovering around her stomach area, and even though she had a sword, it would be hard to aim toward the ground when the spear was almost blocking her vision because of how fast it spun.
So Kye shot a Holy ray toward her head and ran while keeping his body under the spear.
Just as he was about to enter the spear's range, Sylvia lowered her body, thus lowering the spear too. Kye hadn't expected that, so he tried to stop himself immediately, but it was too late.
The spear spun so fast that his head got cut immediately.
However, he wouldn't have gone down without a little goodbye gift.
When Kye saw that the spear was following her and knew that he would lose, he let go of his weapon and shot two Holy rays. One with each of his hands. One of the rays was aimed at the sword so that Sylvia wouldn't be able to block the second ray.
And like this, the second Holy ray made a hole in her head. Thus killing her immediately.
[The fight between 'Sylvia' and 'Fallen Angel' has ended as a draw.]
Both fighters had got teleported back into the white waiting room. Sylvia was still taken aback by this fight. It was so intense that she learned a lot from it. And especially that a student like this 'fallen angel' was present on the military's ground. And she was now eager to find him.
As for Kye, he sat on what looked like the ground once he teleported back. And even though from the outside, it looked like Kye was just staring into the white space blankly, in reality, he wasn't. He was actually looking at his system notification.
[VR assimilation finished. It is now possible for the host to gain EXP through the fights in this realm]
He hadn't expected such a thing. It wasn't even in real-life here, so he didn't even expect to be able to use the system here.
'Now that I think about it, I can use my angel's power here, so I should guess that I could earn EXP too,' Just as he thought that, another screen came into his view.
But this time, it wasn't from his system but the game.
[The user named as 'Sylvia would like to add you to her friend list. Do you accept?]
"Is she the girl I just fought?" Kye asked himself as he accepted her friend request. He just thought that she did that because they had a great fight. So he didn't expect the following message.
[Sylvia would like to join your group. Do you accept?]
"How comes?"
