Chapter 194 - 192: Against Big Brother 1
Just as Alex's match ended, several others matches had ended as well, everyone was moving to the next field as Alex. Gracier had won her first match by conquering all the flags. The expected rematch between Gracier and Amy didn't happen as time out.
Amy felt greatly humiliated, she decided to teach Gracier a lesson in the individual matches.
On the second field, Alex's team faced against Team 10 (this team was composed of two Levels 53 and One Level 54) won. This time none of them had been eliminated.
At the end of the match as usual Alex's received a notification,
[Second Team Battle Ended with your Victory. Do you wish to proceed to the next one?
Yes or No?]
Naturally, Alex answered yes, and the three were teleported into the next field.
Alex decided to go capture the closest flag, he sent Roman and Cyril toward the second one.
'Wew, first flag, done!' Alex heaved a sigh, he had captured the closest flag to his team's starting position. He had reached before Roman and Cyril because of his unusual movement skill, nor did he meet anyone from the rival team.
He checked the other two locations and found out that they were almost close to the second flag. They must be aware that he had just captured the first one, same with the rival team.
'I guess I should go for the farthest flag now.'
Alex thought that he would go capture that flag and if he doesn't encounter any of the rival team members over there, then he would come to give backup to Roman and Cyril.
However, as he was going on his way, he got an alert from his wristband that the rival team had already taken the second flag! His team was too late. Not only that, Cyril has been eliminated, as for Roman he seemed to be in a pretty tough spot as he kept sending assistance signals one after another.
'I wonder what happened. How is the one the two have faced? Damien? Leonardo? Sakuya? Maria? Leon ?' he wondered, here is Divine Sense seemed to be blocked by something, so he couldn't use it.
Alex hoped that the person wasn't who he thought it was and speeded off towards the person who captured the second flag. He did not want their match to happen here. There was also her, he did not wish to face if possible.
〖Don't worry it's not Leon but someone you would have never imagined. Even I'm surprised when I saw she is, Fufufu!〗Silveria dropped a hint on the other party's identity.
'She? So, the other party is a woman. I wonder who she is?' Alex thought before,
'Hmm?' Alex noticed two silhouettes rushing towards his position, and he instantly knew that those two were from the rival team who were planning to capture the first flag.
Grinning he passed through the two and lightly touched their wristbands, it was a couple, both had the same level 54.
*SWOOSH*
"Ehhhh?" The couple exclaimed as they suddenly felt something touching their wrists and a sudden gust of wind brushing pasting their bodies. Finally, they looked down.
''No way?!" The two were shocked as they looked at their wrists.
However, before they could think about anything else, they disappeared as they got teleported out.
Alex continued moving toward the third flag at extremely fast speed and soon he was already there.
Roman was lying on the ground not moving.
Alex's gaze did not linger on Roman more than one second before moving toward the figure standing not too far from Roman.
Green eye clashed against Red eye, both were surprised. Alex's brows raised as the only thing he wished to not happen came true,
'Gracier.'
Outside, silence fell upon the whole stadium.
All eyes were on Alex's screen, the exciting match between Leon and Damien, between Leonardo and Maria, did not seem exciting anymore when they saw what was about to happen on Alex's side.
'An exciting fight was about to begin.' This was what everyone was thinking.
`Back to Alex and Gracier's Location.
When Gracier saw that the leader of the rival team, the person who had already captured two flags, her body froze.
She never thought she would encounter her brother here.
Suddenly, she grinned, her right tree red-eye shined with determination as she looked at her brother in the eye.
Alex smiled when he saw the determination in his sister's eyes.
Even though she knew she can't win, she still decided to compete. If it was another person, she may choose to forfeit this match, to give up because the other party was stronger, and more importantly the other party was her brother. Gracier did not choose to forfeit without fighting, if she were to do something like that, it would mean she was given up on her dream of one day catching up to her brother. From this fight, she will learn, and also progress even if she lost.
''Big brother let's fight,'' Gracier said with a crazy battle smile.
''Sure bring it.'' Alex smiled before looking in the direction of Roman, the latter was planning to stand up.
''Stand right there. This is my fight." Alex said in a firm tone to Roman.
'I wouldn't have assisted you even if you have asked.' Roman thought to himself, however, he didn't say it.
He then jumped back, he distanced himself from the two monsters. Even though he surpassed her by few levels, he couldn't even put a fight against the redhead even with the assistance of Cyril. There was no chant, she could use her magic at will, only extremely few individuals could do this. To think Alex's sister would be among them, she was indeed a monster.
Roman was confused, he wondered why Alex even needed to have a face-off with his sister when he could eliminate him within just a blink of an eye. Even though he recognized that Gracier was stronger, she was a monster, compared to Alex, she was lacking. So, why? He thought about it but couldn't find the answer to that question.
Shaking his head, Roman looked at the siblings who were about to start their fight. He decided to just watch the fight, the reason for this fight doesn't matter.
~Back to the Siblings.
Alex decided to check his sister's status to see how much MP does she have left.

Currently, he had 3800 MP left. This happened because he used Accel to move toward the farthest flag and he used it on his way back here.
''Big brother it is not good to spy openly on woman's secret you know?" Gracier said while she readied her already materialized Gift.
Alex shrugged his shoulders not responding to Gracier's words. He readied his weapons, Silveria on his left and Razor on his right.
Nobody made a move, they were just staring at each other.
While it's true that he was stronger than her sister, Alex did not dare to underestimate the latter as he knew Gracier's true combat prowess was not the same as her level, especially considering her talent controlling Fire. They had fought once in the past, it was training, Alex almost lost in that fight even though his level was higher than her. This happened before the start of the D Rank test. Since that day, Alex knew that he must never underestimate his sister, not underestimate someone whose level was lower than yours as higher level doesn't mean everything.
Outside, the audience was waiting for the match to start.
Meanwhile, far away in a simple pavilion, a brown-haired young woman was looking at the huge screen before her. Her eyes were focused on Alex's figure on the screen. Sitting beside her was another young woman, this one had purple hair.
''So, it's him.'' said the purple-haired girl while looking at the figure of Alex.
The brown-haired young woman did not answer, she focused her attention on the screen.
