The long spear shimmered with a threatening power, sending warning signals to Lucien at the front. The prince glanced backwards in caution, but only saw that Heinz was looking at that spear with evident excitement. Lucien chuckled and sent a message.
[I hate to interrupt your sweet moment, but I think you might want to hurry up a bit.]
Heinz outright ignored the prince’s mocking statement, though it wasn’t as if he was seeing and holding the weapon for the first time; even so, he continued inspecting the tool’s stats, perhaps even more excited because he would now be putting it to action.

As the passive effects of the powerful relic coursed through his veins, increasing the power of his war aura to a horrendous degree. He uttered while grinning, "Perfect."
He looked forward with a craving for a good battle and dashed forward, appearing just a bit away from Lucien, where an enemy Seeker was just about to attack the prince. Spinning his spear like a torpedo, he blocked all those attacks incoming at the prince.
Lucien didn’t even turn around; he continued to attack the ones on his side. While Heinz took charge of the other half. Moving his large spear with a scary precision, each of his minute movements and powerful swings of the spear dominated the enemies in a way that they were almost unable to properly fight after facing one direct attack of his. Even when using shields, the shields would cave in.
The number of enemies converging on them increased more and more; those two were basically fighting a horde of 200 Seekers at once. And they were all students of the best academy in all of humanity. Each of them is special in their own way.
Heinz’s increased savage aura continued to hack away and scare the enemies at the front. His war aura continued to increase in potency and power as more enemies continued to throw themselves at him. It was like he was fighting against a swarm of flies, almost unending in number, no matter how many of them he struck down.
But that was fine as well, the more flies that came at him, the more his power increased, the more his domination spear vibrated and transferred power to his war aura, rising in its deadly potency of savage brutality. Countless screams and howls of pained grunts reverberated everywhere every time his mighty spear struck an enemy Seeker.
Unlike Heinz, who fought with a savage brutality, exuding an intimidatingly overpowering presence. Dominating everyone with a war aura and frenzied battle mayhem. The golden-haired 4th prince radiated a royal majesty; each of his movements and attack were filled with eloquence and authority.
There was a trace of finality in his every attack, almost akin to a royal decree. Coupled with Golden hair, ruby red eyes, and the shining Silverthorne in his hand, amplifying the royal aspect of his presence even more.
If Heinz’s savage like warlord aura caused every one of his enemies to hesitate in fear, then all of Lucien’s enemies could be seen struggling against the inner respect that formed within them. Even other seekers, from great or minor kingdoms, as well as royalties or heirs of prominent dukedoms, and first-grade merchant organisations, felt his authoritative, almost kingly presence seep into their beings.
Not allowing them to fully realise their own intent to kill the enemy, creating an internal conflict within their own minds. They could not believe it; how could the failure of a prince who only had 5-star potential show such overwhelming might of majesty?
Conner Ravenspire and Enrick Samartan watched this on with extreme tension. This was different from what Axel did back then in the very first round against Section C. At that time, he stood against 80 fortifiers alone, but he had continuously dodged and attacked, finding the correct angles and opportunities.
However, there were no such opportunities here. Both of the powerful Seekers were continuously facing every single one of the 200 Seekers, combined from 2 divisions of the defenders. With a grim expression, Conner and Enrick communicated with each other, including Jaden on the top floor, noticing that for some reason, the two monstrously powerful Seekers hailing from the gold section were trying to avoid actively eliminating anyone, and fended them off.
Which terrified them even more, because everyone knows that it’s easier to kill an enemy than to subdue them. The fact that 2 individuals at their same power level had enough power to fend off against 200 Seekers at once and still make sure not to hurt anyone badly enough to eliminate them from the battlefield was not simply frightening but downright concerning, as it broke all common sense of power levels between each of the phases.
And it was at this moment that they reached a collective agreement to join the battle, rather than stand by and watch from the sidelines. Enrick’s runic weapons’ cooldown time had also finished by now. Conner and Enrick were both very strong in their own level of power, though not as great as the power of the two they were facing.
But regardless of it, it didn’t need to be. Once the two of them joined hands alongside 200 Seekers of both of their commanding divisions, even Heinz Gil and Lucien Suncrest would have to step backwards, whether they liked it or not.
And that’s exactly what happened. Conner was an Arcane Knight. He had already activated his arcanist aspect. He brought out a runic weapon of his selection, though it didn’t give him any special abilities since it wasn’t a tool personally made for him by Axel Nomrad.
Enrick also summoned his 5 conjurations and brought out the Conjurer’s Blade. All of his stats improved tremendously, gaining it as a share from each of his specialised conjurations. With perfect coordination from the 200 division members, a path opened for the two of them. Enrick’s conjurations each charged forward using all of their powers and not holding back. Heading straight towards Heinz.
While Conner chose to fight against Lucien, mixing with the Seekers of his division and attacking Lucien at once, he had already been analysing everything about the prince, from using spells to that change in presence while holding that shining silver sword, arcanists being known for their adaptability.
To create solutions through magic, inventing and effective magic spells and formulas on the fly. Of course, he wasn’t the only one with brain cells, considering the use of fire and light-type attacks used by the prince and the properties of his aura.
All the Seekers obviously tested darkness-type attacks, yet it wasn’t strong enough to overpower the silver light radiating from the sword. Conner commanded them all to use darkness-type attacks at once. The problem was obviously that they weren’t all using those darkness-type attacks collectively.
And when 100 Seekers at once alongside Conner started using darkness-type spells or aura-based attacks, Lucien Suncrest finally started to become overwhelmed by meeting the opposite type of element that directly countered the light radiating from the sword, as well as the fiery and destructive property of his aura.
