THE ADVENTURER OF EDEN
3.7 "Daughter of Genius"

Shiki prepares to fight Kira Werewolf. The red-haired man became the figure of a ferocious and large werewolf monster. The claws came out sharply and Kira's fangs were visible on the wolf's face.

Shiki is experienced, if Kira becomes a wolf, then speed is his main strength.

Yet fighting a werewolf like this was something rare and a golden opportunity. For a long time Shiki had been waiting for a strong opponent to come to him and fighting Kira Werewolf was a wish that materialized for him.

"Hehe!" Shiki was excited and Alicia was shocked to see the black-haired young man's grin.

(Look at the grin.he was so excited) Alicia thought in surprise.

Shiki and Kira were getting ready now, the two of them then shouted at the same time.

""Forward!!!""

The two of them both sped up, a strong clash occurred until releasing a strong gust of wind. Shiki's two black blade blades clashed with Kira's wolf claws.

The fierce clashes were balanced, equally fast and strong. They both retreated once they finished the lightning clash earlier. Alicia and Mira did not see, the two women were facing each other now;

"Mira, I know this is stupid. But then again, I'm asking you to give up." Alicia said that. "The Monsters you summoned have been wiped out with no rest, Shiki will win against Kira and..."

"'You can't beat me' That's what you're trying to say, isn't it? Don't stupid. The difference in our strength is so obvious now, you're weak, you're pathetic, you don't deserve to be the genius princess everyone loves!" mira said, she tried to knock Alicia mentally.

Alicia took a deep breath and let go. "That's right, I'm weak and pathetic." Alicia pulled out her wand; "But I'm not a coward!"

"I'm full of pride, princess of Romanova, my name is Alicia!" Shouted Alicia before she shot Mira with "Wind Blast!"

Mira dodges the wind attack, Shiki and Kira realize Mira and Alicia are already fighting fiercely now.

Mira called out from the mirror, several Monsters came out from there; "Three Golems" came out from the mirror that Mira had prepared. Alicia prepared again, she thought of a strategy to fight one, no... These three hard Monsters.

...

"The princess will be finished if she can't think fast. With Apollon, Mira was able to summon as many Monsters that had already been registered to her as strongly as she could." Kira smiled, explaining a little about the strength of her twin sister.

"Registered, huh." Shiki repeated that, he was rather curious about his methods.

"!!?" Kira uses it as a distraction, and attacks Shiki who is able to be fended off with both of his black blades.

"Curtain!" Kira was annoyed and Shiki said; "I saw him with these two eyes, it is likely that you attacked me!"

...

Alicia. Mira's near there.

The three Golems moved in after Alicia, and the long blonde girl ran away from them.

(I have no way to defeat this creature!!) thought Alicia, she knew the difficulty against Golems like in Star Island and Lava Golem before.

Alicia could have used her ultimate magic, but it took a long time of preparation and the Golems would attack her as soon as she was preparing.

Now, Alicia realized Mira had not moved after calling the Golems earlier. (Mira must've forced herself.) thought Alicia rather pityingly, and...

The three Golems came now, and Alicia remembered how Reina destroyed one Golem with the "Rhongomyniad", a luminous holy spear created from Stardust's noble weapon "Divine Light" and Alicia destroyed one Lava Golem with her ultimate magic.

While Alicia was dumbstruck, three Golems struck her together until they damaged the ground.

"Allen!" Shiki is worried, but Kira Werewolf continues to chase after him.

"He's not dead, his magical energy's still on." Mira still felt Alicia's magical energy and from the ground earlier; "Firebolt!"

A huge flame shot towards the three Golems. Despite being able to erode the hard resistance of the creature, Alicia needed to think of the next way to defeat the Golems.

"Yes!" Alicia understands. "This is the way!"

"Hit once again, Golems!" Shouted Mira, but Alicia's idea was faster than the Golems carrying out Mira's orders;

"Fire magic and wind base strongest mountain!" Alicia shot this magic attack on the three Golems using two magic sticks; "Firebolt! Wind Blast!"

A wind blast accompanied by a creeping fire is released in the near future; Shiki and Kira are shocked to see that, and Mira is in disbelief; "Damn it!"

The three Golems were crushed into ashes and Alicia woke up from underground. Alicia was full of confidence now, and optimistic of course could overcome everything Mira put out for her;

"I wonder if you have any other tricks? That's not enough to beat me...!" Alicia's smile was excited.

"You were smart enough, but it doesn't matter. All you can do is shoot basic magic." said Mira knew how much power Alicia had. "...you can't use advanced magic, but you're called the Genius Princess because you're capable of using the five elements of magic."

Shiki heard that, she just found out. One person should only be able to use one element, but the exception is if they are a mage. Vira can only use one magic element, which is fire and she is a powerful mage.

Alicia can use five magic elements, but can not use advanced magic from the five elements. Shiki is impressed, but Alicia's shortcomings are obvious.

Originally the flaws could be covered with the existence of the Sun Magic Wand, the Apollon that the Romanova family had and even made Alicia one of the strongest mages in the kingdom, however now Apollon is stolen and Alicia has limitations in her use of magic. 

"Did you remember how Apollon's sun magic wand worked?" mira asked, but she immediately replied; "This is a magic wand that is able to double the magical energy of its user; 2 becomes 4, 4 becomes 8, 8 becomes 16, and then the magic wand becomes 2, 16 becomes 32 and 32 becomes 64, and 64 becomes 128..."

"It really is an amazing magic wand, isn't it? It was perfect for a mage or a summoner like me." said Mira; "I can use it because I am a Valkyrie and cursed by our Master"

Alicia wasn't surprised, but it made sense now. Mira is a Valkyrie who is given power (cursed) by someone called a Master, and Apollon can be used by him must be Master's deeds as well.

"But it is impossible for one to get to multiples of 16 or 32... Not even the Sage could. Even if you're Valkyrie, you can only go up to 16 and Apollon attacks you strongly..." Alicia already knew the consequences of Mira using Apollon.

"It was Apollon's self-protection from an evil entity like you. Even if someone from NARAKU has tampered with, the noble weapons of Romanova still can only be used well by the main descendants of Romanovas."

"Apollon will kill you, and death will come to you after this battle is over." continued Alicia warned Mira about it.

"Omong empty!" Mira called out to the Monsters again using three mirrors.

Then Wyvern, Cyclops and Warg came out, their respective numbers were 5, 6 and 8.

"Gah!" Alicia was scared.

Shiki was annoyed; "That much monster! That's right!"

"Wahahaha Kira laughed. "It's over!"

"All these monsters will end our fight, "girl Lady", you won't win against me!" Mira said seriously, and Alicia gulped her saliva with Mira's counterattack already in front of her eyes.

...

Kira, the red-haired man who was now a wolf was laughing happily; "Haha! End already! This is the end of you, miss princess!"

Three types of Monsters were summoned by Mira through her mirror. First was Warg, the ferocious wolf that Alicia had fought at Mount Yoru, and their number was 8 tails now. Alicia knew the speed and their bite would rip a human to death.

The second was Cyclops, a huge humanoid monster that had one eye and a horn. Carrying a stone mace as their weapon. Their number was 6 people and their physique was of course the thing that could make Alicia die.

Third was Wyvern, a flying monster with both wings and legs. They are like dragons in stories, and they are a sub-species of dragons indeed. Of course they are strong, fast and can shoot fire attacks from their mouths.

Although Alicia did not know the above explanation, yet she knew it was impossible for her to win against these Monsters because of how dangerous they were all.

But Alicia tried to calm down, not panic and think clearly. Despite calling out that many, there must be a lack of it.

Right, Alicia knows what her flaws are...

"Damn it, Alicia's in danger!" Shiki prepares to help Alicia, but Kira won't let her; "You think you can touch my twin sister, Shiki!"

Kira comes quickly from the side, Shiki learns of the attack thanks to her magic eyes and dodges in a few seconds.

Shiki spun with one hand as a foothold, then CRATZ! "GWOGH!" Shiki gave one slash to Kira's wolf body until it bled.

"Damn it...!" Kira is annoyed and strikes back, but Shiki has evaded before the attack that damaged the land hit him.

At Mira's place, she... "GOSH!" Mira spewed out a lot of blood, her blood color was purple and Alicia was shocked by that; "!!?"

'Curtain...! It's getting worse!' Kira is worried, but Shiki comes to attack her and says; "There's no time to worry about your sister while you're working!"

Kira was injured in her hand by Shiki's slash just now, and injured Shiki's waist with her assaulted hand earlier.

"Gah!" Shiki was in a bit of pain, he was hit by quite a strike even though he could see the attack earlier, but his body lost faster than Kira's body.

Shiki and Kira both retreat, and Shiki is near Alicia who told her. "You don't have to worry about me, Shiki. I'll be fine."

"Are you serious?" shiki asked in surprise as well. "As long as you fight with me, I have the right to worry and protect you."

Alicia blushed a little hearing that. "Nice once, but I don't mind, trust me. My duel with Mira was fate from the beginning and stopping her suffering was my duty." said Alicia prepared, she used two magic canes.

Shiki knew one magic wand belonged to Alicia and that one magic wand, it seemed to belong to Vira...

"Then don't die."

"Don't worry, I'm hard to die because I'm a Romanova!" Alicia ran to attack Mira after replying to that remark;

"Now, attack that woman!" Alicia orders several Monsters to attack, 3 Warg and a Cyclops.

"It's only this way now, but it should be enough to beat that stupid woman" said Alicia.

And 3 Warg ran from the same side, and behind him was one Cyclops. Alicia took something from her cleavage;

Previously, Vira who was willing to go to where the Guild Leader gave her two magic sticks to Alicia who was certainly shocked to see that;

"One wand isn't enough for a "genius princess" even though the one you have is the most expensive and quality brand." Vira said that.

"Vira... I haven't asked you this before; as a mage, am I worthy of being called "Daughter of Genius" by everyone?" alicia asked, wondering what Vira thought of her.

"Everyone's opinion is different, but most importantly can you prove that you are the "Jenius Princess"...? Proving it to others is good, but the most important thing is to prove it to yourself and overcome the doubts you have." Vira told me that with a smile.

Alicia gaped at the wise words and thanked him. "Thank you Vira..."

...

Now, as the Monsters advanced against Alicia created a huge earth wall.

"Wall of Terra!" A huge earth wall appeared before the invading Monsters.

"cheap class!" Mira shouted, and at the remaining Monsters came charging forward from beside the wall.

(I understand why Vira gave me two more magic wand, and that's pretty good.  Although my talent is lacking, if my container is qualified then I can use magic better.) Thought Alicia; (In my case, the three magic wands I have can make me use the same magic many times.).

(It should be that using Apollon can be like this, but I'm too focused on something I can't and lack confidence in it.)

Alicia started to make her redemption. She wanted to let go of all the doubts inside of her and become a better woman.

Against Mira, not because she wants revenge. But because he wanted to capture Apollon and also wanted to become stronger.

Alicia used two magic sticks and created another larger wall; "Big Wall of Terra!"

Mira was startled, and shouted; "Destroy all those earthen walls!"

The Wyverns shot fire until the earth wall was destroyed, and the Cyclops also damaged it with their stone mace. All the Monsters called Mira broke through, then killed Alicia.

But the orange-haired girl wasn't there because she was jumping around the ruined earth wall, then using "Gust!" several times until high enough as a catapult for him to fly.

"Huh?" Shiki looked up and wondered what Alicia would do; "What does Alicia plan to do?"

"Hey, we've agreed not to bother them" Kira said.

Shiki was astonished to hear that; "When do we agree on that?"

"Although so..." Shiki retorted; "We're the same, aren't we? I believe in Alicia and you believe in Mira, even if you know that your twin sister will die after this battle is over."

"I'm not gonna let Mira die, I'm gonna give your head to "Master" as a sacrifice for Mira's life!" mira shouted attacking faster.

"God!" Shiki spirit; "Try it if you can! Crazy dog!" Shiki and Kira clash again.

...

Simultaneously, Alicia prepared to use her two magic wand from above. Mira smiled faintly; "It must be a wind and fire combined magic just like before! so then! Fly fast, Wyvern!" Mira gave orders to the three sub-species dragons; "Kill him!"

"I'm sorry your guess was wrong, Mira. Because..." Alicia formed a combined attack of five elements from both of her magic wand;

"Five elements, components of the world! They are my strength! My pride!" said Alicia chanting her great magic attack spell;

"GUNDR!"
