"..."
Both Sulina and Yulia were speechless at the result.
Sulina was angry that these people were slacking off and not even acting, while Yulia was a little puzzled as to why all the clothes of those beauties in black veils had been ripped apart.
However, Julia quickly realized the reason and looked at her right hand—the lace glove there was a new style that had just been changed, and it was designed by Emery herself.
"Hmph, you wicked Emerald! You like bullying people, fine, but you even gave me such a nasty magical glove..."
She muttered that to herself, but then Yulia glanced at the beauties trembling and moaning on the ground after their defeats in various poses, and a glint of excitement flashed in her eyes:
"But...it's actually quite fun, hehe~~"
Sulina also recognized the function of the magical glove, and her already aloof and stern face showed even more disdain:
"Just as I thought, you're that scumbag's pet, just as awful as her... I admit you, golden retriever, have some skill, but you're too arrogant. You shouldn't have challenged me on my stage! Drink!"
Su Lina suddenly shouted and chose to take the initiative to attack.
She was also a mage skilled in close combat, and she charged straight at Yulia, gathering white magical light in her fist and throwing a punch.
"Well done!"
A flicker of excitement flashed in Yulia's eyes. She loved this kind of head-on confrontation and threw a punch to meet it!
!
Two equally small but seemingly extremely powerful fists collided in mid-air, but no loud noise or shockwave was produced.
Yulia felt as if she had punched thin air; her body stiffened instantly, and she felt extremely uncomfortable.
This is bad! This is really bad!
Yulia then realized she had been tricked, but it was too late.
The fist that collided between Sulina and Yulia vanished as a phantom, and then a new arm appeared behind Sulina, which clenched its fist and then punched out.
Bang!
The punch landed squarely on Yulia's nose. She was sent flying backward by the burst of white magical light, spinning several times in the air before crashing headfirst into the wall. Most of her body was embedded in the wall, with only her two legs, wrapped in white stockings, flailing about.
If a normal mage were hit like that, the battle would most likely be over.
But apart from a slight soreness in her nose, Yulia was almost perfectly fine, and even while stuck in the wall, she was still able to let her mind wander:
So Sulina was this strong? I was careless... I should have had Emery wear her magical armor and kiss me before we came... If I had the Saintess's Kiss buff, the battle would probably be over by now... or so?
As she pondered this, Yulia became uncertain again.
Her strength after consuming the buff was indeed very high, but that attack just now clearly missed.
No matter how strong you are, it's useless if you can't hit the target.
Realizing this, Yulia finally became cautious. To Sulina's surprise, she easily pulled herself out of the wall, brushed the dust off her clothes, and once again clenched her fists into a fighting stance.
"Come again!"
"...Hmph, you asked for it!"
Su Lina still took the initiative to attack.
This time, Yulia was very serious. She stared intently at Sulina's fist, wanting to make sure she wouldn't be fooled by feints again.
Just as Sulina rushed in front of Yulia, magic suddenly erupted behind her. White magical light instantly transformed into more than ten arms, which all clenched into fists and punched Yulia.
"Varied……"
Yulia gasped in surprise. She strained her eyes to the limit, but she still couldn't tell whether Sulina's arms were real or fake, nor could she distinguish whether the fists were real or feints.
She could only resort to the most rudimentary method: throwing both fists at once, using two fists against a dozen or so fists, with both sides exchanging blows.
In terms of strength and speed, Yulia is clearly stronger.
But no matter how strong you are, if you can't hit the target, it's useless; no matter how fast you are, if you have fewer targets, you'll still be at a disadvantage.
Every punch Yulia threw was a fake, but every punch Sulina landed on her was real.
Although Sulina's punches weren't strong enough to really hurt Yulia, she still beat Yulia up badly, making her magical armor crackle and break several parts.
"what!"
Yulia had no choice but to stomp her foot hard on the ground, creating a shockwave that could reach every corner, to temporarily force Sulina back for half a second and buy herself some time.
Instead of taking advantage of that half-second to launch a reckless attack, she flew directly backward and upward, instantly creating distance between herself and Su Lina.
During her retreat, Yulia finally remembered that her magical artifact also had a communication function, and could even provide a live broadcast to the Blue Star Film and Television backstage. She quickly asked:
"Hey hey~~ Is anyone there? Is Emery there? How come your senior is so amazing? What's with her magic?"
"...You idiot, sigh."
Emery's voice soon rang out:
"Haven't Pancake said it many times? Senior Sulina was an excellent student back then, and Pancake is a magic professor who is also responsible for teaching practical combat... If Senior Sulina wasn't strong, would she have earned Pancake's evaluation of her as an excellent student?"
"As for Senior's magic... well, I'm just guessing. You were indeed a bit too hasty and careless this time... Julia, you shouldn't have challenged Senior on her stage."
"stage?"
Upon hearing this, Yulia quickly looked towards the stage, only to see Sulina kicking her foot as she chased after her.
The real world isn't a game; the boss won't stop acting while the protagonist is looking up a walkthrough.
Although Sulina couldn't hear what Yulia was whispering, she guessed that she was asking for help, which she definitely had to stop.
Just like the dozen or so arms that suddenly appeared on her back before, now more than a dozen long legs wearing combat boots and flesh-colored stockings also kicked out from under Sulina's skirt armor, slamming into Yulia's entire body.
Yulia tried her best to block and counterattack again, but unfortunately every punch she threw hit empty air, and her speed couldn't overcome the difference in numbers between the two sides... There were just too many fleshy long legs kicking at her.
Snapped!
Chapter 139 Can a chaebol heiress always remain aloof and superior?
Despite her best efforts, Yulia was unable to defeat Sulina. She was struck in mid-air by a long, fleshy leg from Sulina, whose power was like an iron whip, and fell back onto the stage.
Fortunately, Yulia was physically strong enough that she could roll to her feet almost instantly after landing, just in time to dodge another powerful kick from Sulina.
But that was all. Soon after, Su Lina launched a fierce and relentless offensive. Each punch she threw was a dozen or more at once, and each kick was a dozen long, fleshy legs that moved like whips, swift as the wind and impossible to resist.
After realizing that no matter how she fought back, it was futile, Yulia chose to back down. She simply covered her head with both hands to protect her vitals, shrinking herself into a ball and letting Sulina hit her at will.
This actually worked surprisingly well. Yulia's physical strength was indeed outrageous. When she chose to defend with all her might, it would be like scratching the surface for a mage of the same level to hit her. And Sulina's fighting style was also mainly unpredictable and she was not good at armor-piercing attacks.
Then a very interesting scene unfolded on stage: Sulina gritted her teeth and kept punching and kicking Yulia, looking very satisfied with the beating.
In reality, there was hardly any effective damage. Yulia, who was curled up in a ball with her head in her hands, was even able to continue talking to Emerald through the communication magic device while being hit.
"I think I understand what Senior Sulina's magic is all about."
After observing for a while through the live stream function of Yulia's Mystic Code, Emerald finally began to answer Yulia's questions:
"Didn't I tell you before? The core concept of the Bolin family's stage magic is to create the coolest stage effects with the least amount of magic power consumed... All those punches and kicks that Senior Sulina throws when she attacks are essentially a kind of stage effect."
"Stage effects? No way!"
Yulia immediately expressed her disbelief:
"No matter how cool the special effects are, they're just lighting effects, they're fake. But the punches and kicks I got were all real! Now you're telling me they were all special effects? Then who hit me?"
“Strictly speaking, Yulia, you actually hit yourself.”
Amelie said things that sounded funny, but her tone was quite serious:
"Do you understand illusion magic, Julia? Many illusion spells are designed to make the target believe they are injured... and then even if the target is not actually injured, they will feel all kinds of pain as if they were injured, and in the most serious cases, they may even die directly... This is the general theory of offensive illusion magic. If you read more books in your spare time, Julia, or pay more attention in Anna's magic class, you should remember it."
"..."
Yulia didn't say anything.
She didn't remember anything, but her intuition told her that she had indeed heard something similar in Viliana's magic class, and that Ameliete was right.
"Then how should I play?"
Yulia humbly asked for advice:
"Is it enough if I just firmly believe in my heart that those attacks are fake?"
"That's correct in theory, but I'm afraid it would be difficult for you to do it, Julia."
Emery sighed:
“Yulia, your senses are too sharp. You can instantly and completely perceive your opponent's movements through various changes in light, shadow, airflow, and sound. Senior Sulina, on the other hand, seems to be taking advantage of your sharp senses. The information in her special effects is very complete. All kinds of light, shadow, sound, and airflow will appear to you as real... In this way, even if you keep telling yourself in your mind that everything is fake, your body will still instinctively think that Senior Sulina's attacks are real, and then you will react to being hit.”
"Ah this..."
Yulia was speechless again.
She was well aware of her condition; in most cases, her body did react faster than her brain, so this method wouldn't work.
So Yulia continued to use her brain, and after realizing that Sulina's attacks were gradually losing their ability to cause even pain, she became happy again:
"Hey... Sulina's magic is indeed troublesome, but it seems to have very weak attack power? As long as I keep defending like this, she'll run out of magic power and collapse on her own, right?"
"This……"
After a moment's thought, Amelie decided to dampen Julia's enthusiasm:
"Don't be too happy yet. If you were fighting in the wild, that might be true. You could outlast Senior Sulina, Yulia... But this is Senior Sulina's stage. She might have some powerful moves up her sleeve, such as using stage effects to transform herself into a powerful monster, and then using realistic feedback to deceive your senses, making your body think that you are really being attacked by a powerful monster. That could very well injure or even defeat you."
"……what?"
Yulia's eyes suddenly widened.
After failing to break through her defenses, Su Lina actually chose to retreat and create distance, then condensed a large amount of white magical light, clearly preparing to unleash a powerful attack.
Yulia's body reacted faster than her mind. While her mind was still reeling, her body had already rushed forward and thrown a punch, trying to interrupt Sulina's ultimate move.
Su Lina dared to create distance and charge up her ultimate move, so she must have been prepared in advance.
Just like when she countered Sulina's punch, Yulia's punch completely missed its mark, passing through Sulina's position as if it were a phantom.
Just as Yulia turned around to attack again, Sulina's ultimate move was fully charged.
Roar!
With a loud dragon roar, Sulina transformed herself into a white dragon with a very alluring body using stage effects. The white dragon immediately opened its mouth and sprayed bright light-attribute dragon breath directly at Yulia.
...It's all fake! It's all fake! It's all fake!
Yulia quickly closed her eyes and covered her head with her hands, repeatedly telling herself this in her mind.
But her body wouldn't listen to her. The information from her senses—the fluctuations in magic, changes in airflow, and temperature—all told her that she was indeed being subjected to the dragon's breath.
Then, just like being hit by a white dragon's breath, Yulia screamed in pain and flew backward, turning into a white fireball in mid-air before rolling many times on the ground.
When Yulia stood up again, grimacing, her magical armor was still intact, showing no signs of being breached, but her skin was covered in burns, bruises, and blisters.
At this point, Julia had to confirm that Emeryte's previous analysis was correct; Sulina had indeed taken advantage of her overly sensitive perception and was bullying her severely.
"...Ouch, that hurts, Emerald! So how am I supposed to hit her?"
If her own brain isn't working well, then she'll ask an external brain. Yulia continued to act, choosing to abandon thinking and follow Amelie's instructions.
"The safest course of action is to retreat first."
Emery thought for a moment and said:
"Come back to me, and I'll put on the [Saintess] outfit, kiss you, and give you a few buffs. Then you'll be able to crush all of Senior Su Lina's skills with absolute power."
"Well……"
Yulia's face flushed instantly:
"Emerite, your darling is indeed very capable, but I've already boasted, wouldn't it be embarrassing to just slink away like this? Is there any other way?"
"It's simple if you don't want to embarrass yourself~~"
Amelie chuckled softly:
"Then Julia, just hang in there a little longer. I'll have Anna take me to you, and then I'll put on the [Saintess] and kiss you right there. You can still crush Senior Sulina with your absolute strength."
"Hmm...so you still want to kiss me?"
Yulia blushed even more, but she didn't refuse; instead, she nodded.
"Alright then... Emerald, hurry up and come help me! Your senior's hits really hurt!"
"Okay... Yulia, hang in there a little longer, I'll come find you right away."
