Reborn Apocalypse Ready. War Goddess by My Side

Chapter 559 She Blooms

The frost energy erupting from her body surged higher.

The temperature in the air around her began to drop.

She looked like some kind of ice maiden who’d stepped straight out of the frozen wastes at the edge of the world.

Her second Divine Sigil tore loose in a violent burst.

A brilliant crimson glow, unmistakably SS-rank, flickered and pulsed with wild intensity.

Right as her opponent closed within ten yards of her, Fiona finally moved.

Her lips parted, and she spoke two words. “Frostheart Bloom.”

Water vapor in the air above her head twisted and froze, forming a massive flower carved entirely from ice.

At the same instant, her blade crystallized into a weapon of pure frost.

In that moment, every single spectator in the arena felt a wave of raw power roll off that single strike.

This kind of strength reached far beyond what anyone expected from a Three-Sigil fighter.

Even some of the strongest warriors watching couldn’t hide their surprise. Pulling off something this powerful while still at Three Sigil was nothing short of remarkable.

Her opponent felt that power more directly than anyone else in the stadium.

Standing across from that blade, he suddenly felt impossibly small, like he didn’t stand a chance against it at all.

He didn’t dare hesitate. He shifted his strategy on the fly and unleashed the full force of his own sigil pattern power.

Black light surged around him.

It exploded outward in an instant.

But Fiona’s blade came down first, giving him no room to finish what he’d started.

In that instant, the frost around her felt like it could freeze the whole world solid.

Her blade sliced through the air.

The atmosphere around them froze solid in its wake.

An instant later, her power collided directly with his.

The impact rang out like a thunderclap, shaking the very ground beneath them.

Right as her opponent believed he’d successfully blocked her strike, he watched, helpless, as his own power

shattered to pieces right in front of his eyes.

His pupils locked in place, and every trace of color drained from his face.

“No!”

Fiona’s blade tore straight through the wreckage of his defense and landed directly on him.

In an instant, he froze solid, turned into a perfect statue of ice.

But the fight wasn’t over yet.

The moment after he froze solid, that massive ice flower came crashing down on him like a falling star made of crystal.

In that final moment, despair swallowed him whole. He finally understood that even standing at the peak of Three-Sigil himself, the gap between them was far wider than he’d ever imagined.

All he could do was watch, frozen and helpless, as that terrifying flower descended on him with unstoppable force.

In front of every witness in the stadium, it detonated.

The explosion tore through the air with a deafening crack.

Frost energy ripped through the arena in every direction.

The frozen competitor coughed up a mouthful of blood that crystallized into ice the instant it hit the air.

His body flew backward, straight out of the arena.

Blood kept pouring from his mouth as cold mist rolled off his shaking body.

He couldn’t quite believe it. He’d actually lost, just like that.

Robby’s voice rang out across the stadium.

“Competitor number one, Fiona wins!”

The crowd erupted into thunderous applause.

One strike had ended the whole fight. In that flowing ice blue dress, radiant and fierce, she turned and walked away with total confidence, every bit the image of a winter queen.

She’d captured the hearts of more young men in that stadium than anyone could count.

Fiona’s eyes flicked toward Jameson for just a moment.

Did you see that? This is who I’ve become.

This fight had been Fiona’s way of speaking directly to the father who’d spent her whole life trying to plan out every step of it for her.

The Fiona standing in that arena wasn’t the same Fiona he remembered.

Jameson watched the whole thing, and yet his expression never shifted, not even slightly.

Jameson was a stubborn man, the type who was still waiting for the day Fiona would come craving back to apologize and admit she’d been wrong.

Fiona’s performance in that first match had been outstanding, no question about it.

Combined with those long, striking legs of hers, she’d won over more fans than she could count.

But every young man in that crowd felt his blood boil the second he remembered Fiona had already fallen for Steven.

What an absolute monster, hogging all the good ones for himself.

Fiona made her way back to where Steven and Bianca were waiting.

Bianca clapped her hands together. “That was amazing, Fiona! Those guys couldn’t take their eyes off you.”

Fiona let a small smile slip through. “Just wait. Soon enough you’ll be stealing even more of their attention than I did.”

Bianca laughed and shook her head. “As long as Steven’s watching, that’s all that matters to me. Everyone else can look wherever they want.”

Fiona chuckled. “Just standing near you two is enough to make me sick from all the sweetness.”

Steven grinned. “Get used to it. As long as you’re sticking around, you’d better be ready for plenty more of that.”

Fiona let out a long, exaggerated sigh.

“Maybe I should go find myself a boyfriend too.”

Steven and Bianca both turned to stare at her, clearly caught off guard.

“Why are you two looking at me like that?”

Bianca said, “I’m just surprised to hear something like that coming out of your mouth.”

Fiona smiled. “I’m not some kind of monster, you know. I’ll find the right guy eventually.”

The three of them shared a laugh together.

To anyone watching who didn’t know the full story, that little moment alone was enough to drive them up the wall with jealousy.

The matches carried on.

Competitor number two stepped up next.

Without a monster like Steven or Fiona in the mix, this fight played out far more evenly.

Both sides fought hard, throwing their strongest attacks at each other, until the match ended with both competitors battered and bruised, one edging out a narrow victory by the slimmest of margins.

For most of these competitors, cracking the top ten could change the entire course of their futures.

Steven, though, had no real interest in watching the rest of the matches.

He closed his eyes and let his mind settle inward.

He guided his awareness deep into his own body, focusing on that dense knot of dark green/energy still pinned beneath his Beast-Type Divine Sigil.

That energy looked almost like a coiling fog, thick and heavy, almost syrupy in texture.

It had originally tried to latch onto his Beast-Type Divine Sigil and merge with it.

But the Divine Sigil had forced it down, holding it locked in place from the outside.

On the surface, that strange power looked calm, flowing gently like still water. But Steven could sense the violent, chaotic force churning just beneath that quiet exterior.
