Besides, Alice had just awakened at that time and was also exhausted after experiencing continuous battles.
However, Elina's performance really surprised Rogers. That kind of evasive action was obviously not just something that the [Precognition Special] could do. She must have mastered other high-level specials, which were probably of the same destiny type.
"But Elina doesn't seem like someone who would do something stupid." Lufia clenched her hands. Her eyes were focused and nervous, staring at the two people on the competition field. After hearing what Rogers said, she responded subconsciously.
"Indeed, so I don't know what she is thinking." Rogers patted the residue on his hands and said inexplicably.
"Why didn't Elina dodge like she did just now?" Lufia's expression became even more tense when she saw the scene on the field.
Alice launched another continuous slash with her scythe, and several streams of light intertwined around her and bombarded Elena.
However, Elina just drove the snow-white flames and resisted with all her strength.
"Because she has no way to dodge, those attacks are bound to hit." Rogers' brows slowly furrowed, and his expression became much more serious.
[Guaranteed Special] Alice was supposed to awaken after her second year, and I don't know if this was stimulated by Elena's dodge, or if she had already awakened long ago.
At this moment, it was only a matter of time before Alice broke through the defense of the same level. Moreover, her attacks came with the ability to hit the target and knock back real damage, as well as the means to clear and disrupt magic power.
If this kind of existence does not sacrifice itself or use miracles, what can it do to ensure victory?
After Rogers burned the paper ball in his hand into ashes and let them fly away, he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
Then he thought of Elena's continuous provocations, and wondered what that guy was trying to do.
In the next second, he saw the white fireworks around Elena suddenly dance into a Möbius strip. After Alice attacked her just now, several streams of light that were forcibly dissipated were all thrown back from the ring.
"The returned attack also has a hit rate? The same guaranteed hit bonus? No, could it be fate..." Rogers frowned and muttered to himself, his eyes fixed on the field, afraid to miss any changes.
As the light on the field suddenly cleared, and the [Dead Demon Special] that was supposed to be in cooldown was activated again, he suddenly felt that everything seemed a little outrageous.
The two bronze-level guys were constantly breaking through class barriers, and even playing with the most difficult cause and effect in the fate attribute...
Compared to him, most of the other students watching the game had their eyes wide open, and the previous noisy cheering and noise died down a lot.
[The gods of the bottomless pit cast a secret gaze upon you. They hope that you can show your strength to overwhelm fate at this moment.]
Rogers silently closed the prompt box, raised his hand and gently pinched the Jingming acupoint, feeling extremely complicated for a moment.
……
"Get out of here, you chicken coop fox!"
Alice's face contained some pain that was difficult to conceal. She tried her best to suppress the backlash after forcibly activating the special bonus. She stood firmly on her feet, tilted her body slightly, clenched her fists, and swung them violently at Elena's chest.
The punch created a sharp whistling sound in the air, producing a rapid and powerful breakthrough sound.
Elina wanted to mobilize magic to fight back, but the magic power around her was still extremely weak, so she could only try her best to dodge the swift attack by turning sideways.
But the violent movement instantly brought up the many injuries accumulated in her chest and abdomen, causing a sweet taste to surge from her throat and bright red to flow uncontrollably from the corners of her mouth.
"I knew that Shadow Demon learned those vile words from you!" Elina wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth with her thumb, quietly performed healing magic, walked with cat-like steps, and stared at Alice who seemed to be exhausted.
She no longer dared to attack rashly. It seemed that Alice had just obtained a special privilege similar to that of Rogers that could block foresight.
However, the effectiveness of this special feature was not stable. It still allowed her to see a vague future other than attacking, and it would occasionally become ineffective when Alice launched an attack. She just couldn't quickly grasp the pattern.
"Would a proud young lady look so embarrassed when facing such a weak person like me?" Alice breathed heavily, inserted her five fingers into her hair, and pushed all the loose hair to the back of her head, with a playful expression on her face, just like Elena's before.
Her posture seemed very relaxed, and her palms no longer condensed into glowing weapons. She just watched the enemy slowly circling around.
Elina closed her eyes slightly. She deliberately provoked Alice in order to let her opponent launch many attacks, and then return all her strength to the opponent to decide the outcome.
Unfortunately, at that moment, Alice not only activated the special ability that could interfere with prediction, but she also used the [Death Demon Special] again, causing the future that should have been certain to fall into complete chaos.
Suddenly, she seemed to think of something happy. The tip of her blood-stained tongue slid across her lips slightly, making them look more beautiful. She smiled and said, "Rogers is really good."
Alice pursed her lips when she heard that, sparks of anger flashed in her eyes, the knuckles of her fists turned whiter due to the force, and a stream of hot air rose and spread from her body, as if possessing an unstoppable power.
But then, a gentle and bright smile appeared on her face again, and she spoke slowly:
"Are you trying to provoke me and make me take the first step? It's really ridiculous. I can only keep talking about your indecent behavior. If I'm not mistaken, Rogers should not have said the word 'love' to you, right?"
Elina paused, her eyes becoming increasingly stern. White flames that could freeze magic power floated around her, forming a Mobius strip. She responded in a cold tone, "But isn't it more ridiculous to never hear it again?"
Alice didn't say anything more. She suddenly took a step forward and rushed forward quickly. Her fist, which was ready to strike, rushed forward with several colorful streams of light.
boom--
The white flames and flowing light collided with each other, and the scene became bright and dazzling in an instant.
"I can't avoid it..."
Elina frowned, feeling the huge push from the White Flame Ribbon and her internal injuries aggravated as she retreated.
This attack is different from the previous spell and cannot be frozen, saved, or returned again.
The ribbon would soon break due to being unable to withstand the attack, and at this moment, operating the ribbon and the healing magic to keep herself from losing the ability to move at the same time was already the limit of her spellcasting.
If you want to win, you have to pay a huge price, and there is no guarantee of a complete winning rate.
Elina felt that she had paid enough attention to the Saint. It was not reckless to provoke the opponent to use all his strength and then return all the attacks. Unfortunately, the favor of the world was so unreasonable.
She didn't want to look as embarrassed as Alice said, but she suddenly felt that maybe losing in a dignified manner wouldn't be such a big loss.
However, when she thought of this, the attack suddenly stopped.
"You want to lose?" Alice's intuition made her notice the other party's strangeness, and her eyes showed a thoughtful look: "If you lose, can you get any benefit from Rogers?"
Alice was keenly aware of the strangeness that flashed across Elina's face. She suddenly raised her right hand and looked at Aldrey in the sky: "Teacher, I want to apply for a tie."
And when this tentative word came out, the change in the other person's eyes made her more confident in her choice.
Aldrey had been doubting many things just now, such as how this girl named Elena could fight so well with the saint, and why Rogers appeared frequently in the mouths of the two girls.
They are only fourteen years old, but they look like they have been through a lot because of this guy.
Especially the saint. Many of the remarks she just made were destined to be words that must not be spread out. Otherwise, if the outside world believed that this was the result of Saint Herte's teaching, it would definitely be a huge blow to Saint Herte's reputation.
When he heard the saint's request and was about to continue asking Elena for her opinion, he heard Vice Principal Avery's instructions. Without hesitation, he immediately raised his hand and waved it, announcing the result of a draw.
At the same time, he was also greatly shocked. The Saint was clearly in an absolute advantage. How could the Vice-Principal intervene? What kind of genius was that student named Alina...
Elina's face darkened when she heard the voice, and she glanced coldly at Alice who was smiling. She felt that she should not have hesitated at all.
As the results were announced, there was an uproar in the audience, with expressions of disbelief on their faces.
Most of them thought that the Saint might not be able to break through the opponent's defense for the time being and did not want to waste more energy so she made such a decision.
But no matter what, in their eyes, Elena can already be compared with the saint.
"Elina is so awesome!" Lufia's voice was filled with excited cheers. When she saw Elina returning, she excitedly stood up, opened her arms, and gave her a big hug.
"It still hurts a little..." Elina warned a little tiredly. In her hand, she held a healing stone issued by the school and was using its power to quickly recover from her injuries.
"Sorry, sorry, it's my fault!" Lufia quickly and carefully pulled Elena back to her seat and let her sit between her and Rogers.
"Destiny?" Rogers asked softly with curiosity when he saw him sit down. He didn't care much about the outcome of the bet, he just wanted to get an answer.
"Is this all you care about?" Elina leaned back in her chair, tilted her head back, and asked with disdain.
"Is your injury serious? I've been beaten by her like this before. The real damage that comes with her special knockback is really painful." Rogers immediately put on a concerned and worried expression, and his gentle and quick tone was full of urgency.
Elina turned her head quietly to watch Rogers's behavior, her hair sliding down her shoulders as her head moved. She smiled and said softly, "Come closer and I'll tell you."
Rogers was a little confused when he heard this request, but he still moved a little closer, but then he felt a slight pain in his neck.
He looked at Elena who turned around quickly, held his forehead helplessly and let out a sigh.
Today I am 600 words short, as usual...

Chapter 4: Rogers! I'm going to kill you! (6k)
"That girl named Elina Devin is Rogers' fiancée, right?
“When I met her before, she was basically around Rogers. I thought she was just a foil for establishing a marriage relationship, but I didn’t expect that she would have the strength to compete with the Saint.
“But ever since the Saint was saved by Rogers at the cost of his own life during the Exorcism Night, she seems to have developed a clear liking for this devilish guy. I wonder what their relationship is like now.
"And the spell that Elina Devin just cast seems to be of the same type as the one Rogers used to torture Rivers yesterday..."
An Augustus student watched Elena's departure curiously, with envy and jealousy mixed on his face, and spoke to Edith beside him in a very subtle tone.
Edith came back to his senses. He was sitting next to the third prince at this moment, with his thoughts churning in his mind. After hearing this, he just nodded stiffly.
Like other students of Augustus College, he was very curious about Elina, but he did not dare to look in the direction of Hilmi College because there sat a terrifying creature named Logos Brid.
In other words, the students of Hilmi Academy probably wouldn't look at Rogers. Even their peripheral vision probably wouldn't have shifted his gaze in that direction at all. After all, Rivers' fate was still clearly imprinted in the minds of the first-year students.
“Your Highness, I think the White Flame Spell that Alina cast was most likely taught to her by Rogers.
"As the founder himself, Rogers's mastery of this skill is probably far superior to that of Elina...
"So I beg you to forgive my presumption and overstepping my bounds. I sincerely suggest that you skip the duel with Rogers! There is no need for you to take a huge risk to fight against such an unspeakable thing!"
There was a strong determination and sincerity in Edith's eyes, and he proposed it without hesitation.
Ever since he and Caspar were forced to spread rumors about the prince, he knew that he had earned the prince's dislike.
The reason why the prince kept him by his side was probably because he wanted to find out whether he was instigated by the first prince or whether he was just a fool who loved to spread ridiculous gossip.
With a little guilt and great worry about the future, he decided to speak his mind without hesitation.
"Edith, don't you believe me?" Richard smiled slightly, his expression revealing full of elegance and confidence, and asked back softly in a very calm manner.
He was the only Augustus Academy student who dared to cast his eyes towards Rogers's position, so the intimate scene between Elena and Rogers naturally caught his eyes.
Unlike most students who like to delve into personal matters, he is constantly assessing the threat level of Rogers based on this.
But the more he thought about it, the faster his heart beat. He even began to unconsciously compare Rogers with his perfect elder brother, who seemed like he could never be surpassed.
Thinking of this, he murmured unconsciously: "Just like Yaoyang and the deep pit..."
When Edith heard the prince's answer, his uneasy premonition became even stronger. He wanted to talk about Caspar and Rivers' fate, but he was afraid that using such people to admonish might offend the prince's honor.
It was not until the prince uttered an inaudible murmur that he could not help but ask, "What did you just say?"
"Nothing, I once said that I would fight for Kaspar's interests, how could I break my promise so easily.
"I'm not someone who can't accept failure, but I have to give it a resounding defeat after trying my best."
Richard slowly raised his hand to stop Edith from continuing to speak.
His elder brother had already gained a huge amount of political capital in the process of handling the turmoil in the East Territory, and had also received repeated praise from his father.
If he showed any sign of cowardice now, it would definitely cause an immeasurable blow to his reputation, let alone continue to catch up with his big brother. This would be a situation that is even more intolerable than losing the duel.
What's more, his second brother once told him that Rogers' physique was extremely weak, and if it was just that ring-shaped magic skill, he was not without a way to deal with it.
"I will obey your will..." Edith swallowed his saliva, gritted his teeth and lowered his head, then he couldn't help but look in the direction of the Hilmi Court seating area.
There was no sign of the saint there, and there was a large empty space, with only three people sitting there talking to each other.
If the third prince also goes crazy, what will happen to me...
Edith looked at the "tiny" figure of Rogers, his breathing gradually became heavy, this question kept echoing in his mind, and the unspeakable fear also grew and spread in the deepest part of his consciousness.
……
The sky was clear blue without a single cloud blocking the view, allowing the midday sun to shine unimpeded into the Saint Herte Arena. The bright and blazing light seemed to illuminate the entire world, making it clear and transparent.
Rogers was arranged to have a duel in the morning. His opponent was a student from Landona. After entering the arena, he simply saluted and apologized to him, generously gave him 1,500 credits, and then hurriedly admitted defeat without waiting for the referee's response, and ran back to the corridor at full speed.
After having a simple lunch in the arena, Rogers had been thinking about various ways to defeat Alice until this moment.
"Here, it's your turn." Elina poked Rogers' cheek as he was in deep thought, and reminded him softly.
"Understood." Rogers stretched and nodded in response.
He heard the name announced by Aldre. His next opponent was the third prince.
The royal bloodline is indeed powerful, but as Richard once told him, the other party is also in the initial stage and cannot really stimulate the potential of the bloodline, so he cannot be called a strong enemy.
But he should also be considered a qualified sparring partner, right?
Thinking this way, he walked slowly through the corridor and came to the center of the competition venue.
"Rogers, although there may be many misunderstandings between you and me, I still want to have a pleasant duel with you." Richard smiled and stretched out his hand. His eyes were clear and bright, and he spoke with a sincere expression.
"Of course, I always think that a duel should bring smiles to everyone." Rogers held Richard's hand without hesitation and returned him with the same sincere smile.
Seeing this, Richard couldn't help but think of the laughter that Rivers had made when he was tortured by Rogers a few days ago. The smile on his face suddenly became a little stiff, and waves of chills surged into his heart.
"Okay, go to your seat quickly and don't waste time."
