My Fusion System: Fusing a Thousand Chickens at the Start - Chapter 240

Chapter 240: Diamond-tier Ability Fusion

“What happened? How did Commander Elvira fall?”

“Did you all see it?”

The Torch Town people in the grandstand were all looking down at the discussion, slightly perplexed.

They only witnessed Elvira use a powerful gold-tier battle technique to transform into a fire dragon, leaving a charred black mark in the arena. Even the air was scorched. They were still concerned about the young man, who looked a little more than ten years old. Would he be reduced to ashes as a result of such an attack? However, the situation was reversed in just a moment.

Watson was unharmed. On the contrary, Elvira knelt on the ground.

“Lords Silvan and Antonio, what’s going on?”

Lubin, who was at the front of the viewing platform, did not understand what had happened either. So, he carefully asked the two elites beside him. Those two were the top mages in the kingdom. They must have known what Watson had done.

“Sylvan, do you know?”

Antonio did not answer him. Instead, he asked Sylvan.

Sylvan looked at the field with a serious expression. He paused for a few seconds before he said, “I think I understand. I did not expect Watson to have entered such a realm! I think he is the only person in that world who could fuse Strictly Enforced Words and Law of Domain. Even if I were to stand on the stage right now, I’m afraid I would not be a match for him.”

In the eyes of ordinary people, Watson had only exhaled a breath of air. However, Sylvan could analyze Watson’s actions from his subtle movements. Watson had opened his mouth and used the Strictly Enforced Words to stir the fire elements in the world. Then, after Elvira approached him, he used the Law of Domain to suppress the fire elements.

The Strictly Enforced Words could activate the world’s elements, while the Law of Domain could turn itself into elements and suppress enemies within a specific range. Those two special platinum-tier abilities were combined to form an even more unique effect.

“Sylvan, you may reach the diamond tier in the future if you can understand that.”

Antonio nodded. Then, he turned in the direction of the arena. He stroked his nonexistent beard and revealed a gratified smile. “Watson is my most talented disciple, indeed. It seems that there is no suspense in that competition.”

“Lords Sylvan and Antonio, what are you talking about? What laws and domains? Why can’t I understand anything?”

Lubin was perplexed as he listened to their conversation, especially when he dimly heard Sylvan concede that he was no match for Watson. He feared he had heard incorrectly. Sylvan was the powerful mage in the kingdom, and he was no match for a youngster? How did that happen?

While he was puzzled, Fairy Town’s mayor, Andre, who had been silent the whole time, said faintly, “It’s expected that you don’t understand. That is because Law of Domain and Strictly Enforced Words are the symbols of platinum-tier elites. The former represents platinum-tier warriors, while the latter can only be comprehended by platinum-tier mages. As far as I know, Watson is the only one in the entire kingdom who can perceive those two abilities simultaneously.”

There were not many platinum-tier warriors in the kingdom anyway. Those who could reach that level would either train in combat aura or magic. Very few would train in both because there was a limit to one’s energy.

Andre knew so much because he was a warrior at the peak of the gold tier, and he was not far from the platinum tier. That was also why he felt that Watson was a complete monster.

“Mayor Andre, do you mean to say that Watson is a platinum-tier warrior?”

Lubin felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He exchanged a glance with Gerant, who was also speechless, and he saw the shock in the other’s eyes. Earlier, Watson had created a magic tunnel that led straight to Torch Town. They knew that Watson’s strength was not ordinary, but they thought it was all thanks to the ring on his finger. Who would have thought that a ten-year-old youth would be a platinum-tier elite?

If Lubin had known that earlier, he would not have agreed to the duel between Elvira and Watson. Unfortunately, it was too late for him to go back on his word.

..

The sound of a system notification resonated in Watson’s ears as he competed.

[Congratulations, Master, for successfully fusing Law of Domain and Strictly Enforced Words. You have obtained a diamond-tier unique ability, Absolute Seal, which can seal the magic and combat aura within the enemy’s body. When used against stronger enemies, the effect will be weakened, and the area of impact will be limited to a radius of 100 meters.]

He had used the system to fuse that ability before the start of the competition. Since he would obtain a unique ability after advancing to platinum-tier, would he be able to fuse those two special abilities as well?

With such a question in mind, he gave it a try. The answer was yes.

The Absolute Seal was an ability that only diamond-tier elites could master. It allowed him to be invincible in front of people weaker than him. Furthermore, he was not afraid of being attacked from all sides. The only drawback was that the effect would be weakened when used on people of a higher level. However, Elvira was not in that category.

At that moment, he looked at the pale-faced Elvira, who was half-kneeling on the ground and unable to breathe properly. Then, Watson said politely, “Miss Elvira, the difference in our strength is too great. There is no need to continue with this duel. You should admit defeat.”

He had previously heard a middle-aged guard explain Elvira’s life outside the arena. She also had an honorific title—The Undefeated Flame Queen. It made him believe that she was extremely powerful. As a result, he had combined the two platinum-tier abilities before the tournament. Elvira turned out to be very different from what he had expected. He was able to seal her combat aura quickly.

“What did you do to me? Why can’t I use my combat aura?”

Elvira pursed her lips, which had completely lost their color. Her beautiful face was no longer as strong as it had been, and it was filled with fear.

She could understand Watson defeating her after 300 rounds, but she could not accept what had occurred. Her combat aura was frozen in her body, and she was unable to move. She could not employ the formidable combat techniques that had previously worked for her.

She felt angry and unhappy after losing in that manner.

“I simply employed a unique ability to seal the combat aura in your body. You may understand that as a kind of magic.”

Watson explained everything thoroughly. Elvira did not want to continue listening to him. She yelled and jumped up from the ground as he spoke. She smacked her right fist into the bridge of his nose.

Elvira did not need to use her combat aura for that attack. She relied entirely on the skills that she had honed over the years as a leader. Her movements were swift and swift, like a leopard.

Unfortunately, it was useless.

A delicate finger stopped her fist from landing on Watson’s face. “Miss Elvira, a sneak assault is not a good habit,” Watson said as he blocked Elvira’s punch with one finger and peered into her angry and lovely eyes from a close distance.

He flicked his finger as soon as his words faded, and Elvira’s body blasted backward like a rock. The powerful impact penetrated the competition ground, leaving a deep ravine that spread to the distant stands.

Elvira’s body crashed into the granite wall beneath the stands, causing it to fracture. Her body sunk deep into it as gravel and dust drifted. The people in the stands stood up, accompanied by women’s shouts and men’s angry curses.

“Argh! Commander Elvira lost. Even the wall was shattered. Is she okay?”

“How can she lose? I bet my money on her. I bet ten gold coins on her. She can’t have gone easy on him, right?”

They could not believe Watson had sent Elvira flying that far away. He appeared to be a helpless child. How did he get such incredible strength? Furthermore, Elvira had demonstrated her formidable combat abilities, but she had yet to even touch Watson. The flames on her body had died down on their own. The others were worried if Elvira had taken part in a sham match.

“My opponent has lost the ability to fight. This is my win.”

Watson did not care about the discussions around him. He retracted his finger and looked at Lubin. His combat aura helped his voice to travel far and wide. Lubin looked at Elvira with concern before he picked up the loudspeaker. “I announce that the match is—”

“Wait a minute!”

Before he could finish his announcement, Elvira climbed out of a pile of rocks. The fiery red armor on her body was worn and covered in dust. There was a wound on her forehead, and blood oozed down her pale face. She looked very miserable.

“I haven’t lost yet.”

The audience’s discussion did not reach Watson’s ears, but it got to hers.

She looked around her. She realized that the eyes that usually looked at her with envy had become suspicious. Her heart ached because of that.

Many of those people were speculating about her maliciously. Some of them said, “Elvira might have colluded with that little brat from Blackmoon Town and deliberately lost so that she could get paid 1 to 100! That little brat just bet that he would win. Maybe she arranged it. Our leader has fallen.” Those statements made her feel even more aggrieved.

It was not the time to worry about those things. She had to defeat Watson to prove her worth.

Elvira took a big breath and glanced at the young people on stage. “Watson, you cheated! I can’t release my combat aura because I don’t know what method you employed, but you can use your ability freely. This is not a fair fight.”

Cheated?

When everyone in the room heard that, they all looked at each other in disbelief. Someone had dared to cheat while Antonio and Sylvan were there. They looked relieved. Yes, someone must have cheated. Otherwise, how could a small child defeat Elvira?

“What? So Blackmoon Town? No wonder he can defeat Elvira! That young child would not have won if he had not cheated. I am not worried about anything.”

The audience who had risen from the seats sat down with a contented grin on their faces. They shifted their gaze to Watson and began to curse him.

“Foreigners are quite disgusting!”

“Return to your Blackmoon Town; Torch Town does not welcome you.”

People also tossed empty wine bottles and rotten fruit at Watson.

The situation had gotten a little out of hand.
