Life After Prison

Celeste panted in the arena and said, “I lost!”

After that, she looked at Severin and sighed.

‘I don’t think I will be able to defeat or surpass Severin in this life,’

she thought.

As one of the prodigies, she was the most popular alchemist in the sect. That was before Severin joined the sect. All the members worshipped her and called her the strongest alchemist in their generation and a goddess. Slowly, she became arrogant and proud.

However, it all perished after Severin joined the sect. She was no longer the strongest alchemist of the sect. She also witnessed how Emery volunteered to become Severin’s maid after she lost to Severin in an alchemy battle. That only made her scared of Severin even more.

When she found out her opponent was Severin, she refused to surrender without a fight, she refused to admit that she was any lesser than Severin. Especially when there were so many people watching her.

All she could think of was how Severin killed Uzair with Severin being one level lower than Uzair. However, she did not hope to beat Severin. Instead, she was satisfied if she could survive after a hundred rounds of attacks with Severin to prove her power.

However, she realized the huge difference between her and Severin just after a few attacks.

Severin only fought her with one hand and used only his physical strength but she had to give it everything she got to defend against Severin’s attack. Sweat was dripping down her forehead like raindrops. There were many times she could not handle Severin’s attack.

After admitting the reality, she knew she would only end up like Riley even if she used her weapon. Although that would bring shame to her, it was better than losing her life. At least with that thought, she felt a lot better.

After she was teleported out of the arena, she looked at Severin whom she thought was invincible, and thought, ‘He’s horribly powerful. It takes another truly powerful man to defeat him.’Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.

Celeste did not feel ashamed of losing the battle to Severin now.

In the meantime, the audience quickly discussed when they saw Celeste raise her white flag and admit her defeat.

“Oh, my god! Even Celeste raised a white flag after a few rounds of attacks!”

“Just how powerful is Severin?”

“I never expected Celeste to admit her defeat before even sparring fifty rounds with Severin. She’s a level nine supreme saint.

Throughout the battle, Severin did not use any skills and only his physical strength!”

“I can’t imagine what was going to happen if Severin fought with everything he got!”

“I guess that means only Karl has the power to fight with Severin.”

“What a monster! He only joined the sect for one year and he had already improved so much. Not to mention, he has Divine Constitution, swordwill, and he is also a seventh-grade alchemist!

On the other hand, Karl is the reincarnation of a powerful cultivator from ancient times. Karl also possessed the Divine Constitution. I wonder who is stronger.”

The discussion continued on for a long time. At this rate, they believed only Karl could compete with Severin. They did not even consider Spencer who was second on the Heavenly Prodigy Rankings.

Spencer was sitting near them when he overheard the discussion.

Despite that, he did not reprimand them and just grinned sorrowly.

He knew how capable he was. Riley who was just a little weaker than he was did not even last a while fighting with Severin. He knew even if he gave everything he got into fighting the battle, he would not have a chance to defeat Severin still. Maybe he would face the same outcome Riley had.

Luckily after so many rounds, he did not need to face Severin.

While he was happy with his luck, the elder announced the beginning of the next round.

“Next round of battle starts now!”

After that, Spencer’s token warmth up to give him a signal that it was his turn to battle. As he entered the arena, he realized his next opponent was Severin.

Looking at Severin, Spencer’s face had a smile that looked similar to a cry, “Severin! I surrender!”
