Kyle felt some respect for her from her action. Even after taking a hit like that, she wasn\'t giving up.

But he couldn\'t let that distract him. He still had to end this, and he had to do that soon, before she could have some chance to recover.

He took a step forward, his eyes locked on Lora. "I\'m sorry, Lora. But I

can\'t hold back either."

Kyle shot forward like a bolt of lightning, faster than how he usually moved.

His body was a blur of energy as he closed the distance between him and Lora.

Lora\'s eyes widened in shock as she tried to react, but it was too late. Kyle was already upon her.

With a fierce battle cry, he unleashed a powerful punch at her, aiming directly for her torso.

The punch connected, and for a moment, time seemed to slow.

The force of the impact sent Lora gasping for air, her body crumpling under the force of Kyle\'s strike.

She was thrown backward, tumbling across the sand until she came to a stop near the edge of the arena.

The crowd fell into a stunned silence.

Kyle stood there, panting heavily. He glanced at Lora, who lay motionless on the ground. For a moment, he thought it was over.

But then, Lora\'s body moved.

She pushed herself up onto her hands and knees, coughing as she tried to catch her breath.

Her body was battered and bruised, but she wasn\'t finished yet.

Kyle\'s eyes widened in disbelief. "How…?"

Lora looked up at him, her expression fierce despite the pain. "You\'re not the only one who can fight until the end."

She struggled to her feet, swaying slightly as she stood.

Her hands trembled as she reached for her final rune, the last one in her pouch.

It glowed faintly, a soft white light that seemed to pulse with a gentle warmth.

"This is it," she said quietly, her voice barely above a whisper. "My last rune."

Kyle kept watching her. He didn\'t know why his body wasn\'t triggered to act... Maybe because he didn\'t feel any danger coming of it.

Lora activated the rune, and the air around her seemed to shimmer. A soft, radiant light enveloped her, and for a moment, Kyle could feel the warmth of it wash over him.

He blinked in surprise. That wasn\'t an attack.

It was a healing rune.

The wounds on Lora\'s body began to close, her bruises fading as the rune worked its magic.

Her breathing steadied, and the trembling in her hands ceased. She stood taller now, her strength returning.

Kyle cursed under his breath. \'A healing rune… I never knew those existed.\'

Lora smiled faintly, her eyes locking onto his. "I told you I wouldn\'t make this easy."

Kyle clenched his fists, electricity crackling around him once more. "Fine. Then let\'s finish this."

Kyle activated his [Lightning Dash], his body surging forward in a blur of speed.

Lora reached for her last remaining mana reserves. There wasn\'t much she could do but she was ready to give it her all.

\'Light Beam!\'

\'Lightning Bolt!\'

The two spells came from the opposite sides almost immediately, colliding into a burst of light and energy.

The lingering energy in the air eventually dissipated and Lora fell onto the floor. She had no runes. She had no mana left... What was the point of fighting even further?

She faced the ground but refused to admit forfeit.

"I\'ll help you end this," Kyle muttered, and with that he brought out his last rune—another spell amplifier.

Activating it, he began drawing lightning energy into a massive [Lightning Bolt], it took him a while to do so, but he knew this would end it for sure.

\'Lightning Bolt!\'

The bolt of lightning shot forward, faster and more powerful than before, its bright light streaking across the arena, aiming straight for Lora.

For a split second, it seemed like she wouldn\'t be able to dodge it in time.

But... In an unexpected turn of event, Lora\'s body suddenly crackled with electricity as she rolled out of the ground in a blur, letting the [Lightning Bolt] fall on the ground she was on.

Void\'s voice suddenly echoed in Kyle\'s mind.

[You might want to keep an eye on that rune. It feels… dangerous.]

\'What r–?\'

Before Kyle could complete his sentence, a sudden burst of lightning left the ground where his [Lightning Bolt] had hit and surged towards him.

Kyle had not expected such attack and it struck him clean on his chest, leaving him out cold.

[HP: 8/76]

*Thud!*

Immediately Kyle fell down with a loud thud, everyone knew it was over. The tournament was over.

Lora had won!

The crowd in the coliseum struggled to grasp the absurdity of what had just happened.

For a minute there, Kyle was dominating... Everyone would agree that Lora didn\'t stand a chance. It was meant to be over.

The event that happened in this fight was very difficult to explain. Despite Kyle lying on the ground and Lora still standing tall; the announcer hadn\'t declared her the winner yet.

He suddenly acted, walking closer to the spot where Lora was previously lying.

He observed it intently and could see the rough runic circles, crudely inscribed on the sand floor.

"Impossible!" the announcer muttered, though his voice was loud enough to be heard by the whole crowd.

"This girl—she\'s a genius! A once in a million years genius I say..."

He kept staring at the spot, trying to comprehend how possible it was for a first year to draw a runic circle in seconds.

He didn\'t hesitate anymore, having knowledge of the rules at the back of his head, he declared what the crowd had been desiring to hear for some time now.

"THE WINNER OF THE FINAL MATCH: LORA INGS!!"
