Chapter 94: A Furious Maia
*CLANG* *CLANG* *CLANG*
Finally, after continuously attacking Maia, Alicia saw an opening which she immediately tried to take advantage of.
She moved in and tried to stab Maia but unfortunately for her, it was all a trap. Maia easily dodged her stab and kicked her squarely in the abdomen which sent her flying to the edge of the stage.
Shye felt so proud after seeing his little sister perfectly pull off a move he taught her.
On the other hand, Alicia remained focused even though her abdomen was in pain.
She immediately tried to regain her footing without taking her eyes off Maia because she knew that a single lapse in focus might result in her defeat against such a strong opponent.
*CLANG*
Seeing that she failed to finish Alicia off, Maia smiled widely as she thought to herself “This is the battle I’ve always wanted!”.
Her bored expression was replaced by a battle-hungry smile which surprised the examiners and Dean Gaston.
“W-What?! This little girl dared to hold back against the second-ranked seeded examinee?”
Dean Gaston felt his head spinning because who the hell would dare to hold back in an all-important entrance exam ranking match?
*CLANG* *CLANG* *CLANG* *CLANG* *CLANG* *CLANG*
“K-Kuuhhh…You were holding back?!” Alicia said as she gnashed her teeth in anger, she had never felt so humiliated in her entire life.
Right after Maia decided to get serious, she was constantly on the back foot without any chance to retaliate which made her even more furious.
“Tch! Things can’t go on like this!”
Alicia thought to herself as she finally revealed another one of her skills, [Afterimage Lv.1], which would create two fake Alicias on the stage to confuse her opponent.
Unfortunately for her, Maia didn’t give a single shit about trying to determine which one was real and which one isn’t.
She directly charged towards all the Alicias and attacked all of them to determine which one was real.
“Got you!”
While Maia was charging towards one of the clones, Alicia made use of this opportunity to attack Maia’s exposed back.
“So that’s the real one!”
Maia suddenly exclaimed as she disappeared and reappeared behind Alicia using [Blink Strike Lv.1]
“Shit!” *BANG*
Alicia’s unconscious body fell to the ground after being caught off guard by Maia’s [Blink Strike Lv.1]
“Enough! Maia Crowley wins and proceeds to the finals!”
The crowd erupted into cheers as Maia, the biggest dark horse of the tournament took out the well-known seeded examinee, Alicia Felton.
Meanwhile, Dean Gaston clenched his fists while shaking with excitement.
He wasn’t sure if Maia had the same unbelievable growth rate her big brother had but there was one thing he was sure of.
Maia had unbelievable battle hunger and combat IQ comparable to that of Siegfried Lionheart from the warrior course, if she had the same explosive growth rate her big brother had, then she would undoubtedly surpass her big brother.
Unbeknownst to the dean, although Maia was indeed comparable to or even more talented than Siegfried when it came to combat, there was no way for her to match the explosive growth rate Shye had because his absurd growth rate came from the Flashy Adventurer System.

Still, Maia was undoubtedly a good catch.
Although she couldn’t match her big brother’s absurd growth rate, she had an impeccable discipline and work ethic which would put most high-ranked adventurers to shame.
While Dean Gaston was daydreaming about Maia’s potential, the third assessment was reaching its final stretch as the finals across all four courses were decided.
…
…
…
It took an hour and a half for the warrior, archer, and mage courses to conclude their final matches and determine the final rankings of their examinees.
Now, it was finally time for the last match of the day, the scout course finals match.
Dean Gaston already knew how this would go because there wasn’t such a huge difference between the abilities of the second-ranked Alicia Felton and her twin brother, Dave Felton.
The question is, can Dave push Maia hard enough for her to reveal all her cards?
Meanwhile, Dave was getting extremely annoyed. He never would have imagined that he would enter the final match as the underdog.
Although he saw how Maia defeated her sister, he thought that Alicia simply got careless and that’s why she lost.
He didn’t believe that Maia was stronger than him at all so after hearing the instructors talking about “how long will he last” against Maia, he couldn’t help but gnash his teeth in anger.
While Dave was having internal struggles, Maia arrived at the sparring grounds with an excited look on her face. Seeing how carefree she was, Dave was even more annoyed so he couldn’t help but insult her.
“Heh! Look at this idiot, still not realizing the gravity of the situation she was in. I bet your big brother is as stupid as you!”
After hearing what Dave said, for the first time in forever, the sweet, innocent, and understanding Maia Crowley had veins popping out on the sides of her head in anger.
She didn’t mind being insulted herself but she didn’t want to hear anyone talking shit about her big brother.
Still, she remained silent, however, she had a serious expression on her face as she stared at Dave with an ice-cold gaze.
On the other hand, Dave wasn’t affected. In fact, he felt quite satisfied after seeing the anger in his opponent’s eyes.
Dave assumed his fighting stance and not long after, the examiner in charge of their match announced the start of their match.
“Begin!”
Unfortunately for Dave, Maia wasn’t playing around this time. She immediately used [Blink Strike Lv.1] to appear behind Dave who expected her to do so.
Dave used [Bloody Stab Lv.1] to try and heavily injure Maia but unfortunately, all he hit was an afterimage conjured by Maia’s final hidden skill [Bloodthirsty Feint Lv.1].
Her skill allowed her to conjure an attacking afterimage which has the same aura and attack patterns as the original body but has no actual capability to hurt the opponent.
Dave didn’t even notice Maia’s real body behind him as she quickly finished him off with a [Bloody Stab Lv.1] while he was still confused as to why he felt nothing after hitting Maia’s afterimage.
“E-Enough! Maia Crowley wins and gets the 1st-ranked spot!”
Everyone was stupefied after Maia showed all her cards and went all out.
They didn’t expect that the 1st-ranked seeded examinee, Dave Felton, couldn’t even last twenty seconds against a furious Maia Crowley.
