That rational and calculated explanation made Alrain, Ordion, Alvein, and Kylen fully understand the real reason behind their husband's decision to suddenly and intentionally ask Allen to step down and fight Raven.
Arvin was forcing his first spouse to break his power limits to the maximum point.
Understanding the urgency of the current situation, Alrain immediately stood at the edge of the stands, his eyes staring sharply towards the arena, ready to dash and execute his husband's command whenever needed.
In the middle of the partially destroyed arena, Raven stood frozen. The Prince of the Marland Kingdom was extremely shocked. His eyes stared in disbelief at Allen's figure who was still alive after being crushed by the very large and solid boulder.
Moreover, the youth's appearance was now very different from before. The light wings on his back glowed with a blinding majesty, radiating a pure mana pressure that made the air around the arena feel much heavier.
Everyone watching in the stands, especially the Astoria academy students who moments ago mocked and underestimated Allen, were now shocked and lost for words. Their mouths gaped seeing the appearance of the King of Terror's first spouse who had transformed into an entity that looked very beautiful yet deadly.
The wings on Allen's back flapped once.
Whoosh!
Like a flash of white light, Allen shot at a highly unreasonable speed towards Raven.
The prince was startled and reflexively summoned his dark magic shield to defend himself. However, it was in vain.
Thud!
An extraordinarily strong kick coated with highly dense light element landed squarely on his stomach. The dark shield he cast was instantly punctured, melted, and evaporated just like that upon contact with Allen's light. His darkness was completely powerless and lost its absolutism in the face of the hero of light.
Whoosh!
Before Raven's body could crash into the ground from the first kick, Allen's figure had disappeared and reappeared at his drop point.
Thud!
He kicked the body that was still floating in the air with incredibly fast movements.
Kick after kick was launched repeatedly from various angles.
From the spectator seats, everyone could only stand transfixed watching an unreasonable sight. They only saw Raven's body flying and bouncing back and forth in the air like a ball being brutally hit, unable to clearly see the figure who was kicking him.
It hurts! Raven screamed in his heart, his eyes rolling back enduring the tremendous pain as his internal organs felt like they were being churned.
His body continued to be tossed around in the air due to the barrage of Allen's hard kicks that gave him absolutely no opening.
Is this Allen Vedegra's true power? Damn it, so he had intentionally been hiding it and playing with me from the beginning?!
Raven felt his ribs starting to crack one by one. Fresh blood flowed from his nose and mouth.
No wonder Arvin Vedegra acted very casually and confidently when asking his spouse to fight me! Damn it! It seems I am truly going to die here! Raven thought, filled with despair and regret.
Crash!
A final kick from above finally struck Raven's stomach, sending him crashing and hitting the arena very hard, creating a small crater and long cracks around it.
"Ugh...!!!"
A lot of blood spewed from the prince's mouth. His lower back bone was broken.
While enduring the pain that tore at his consciousness, Raven tried to open his blurred eyes. He looked up.
Allen's figure was hovering high right above him, flapping his two white wings gracefully yet deadly. His right hand held a light sword pointing downward, preparing to deliver the final execution.
Like a spear of light dropped from the sky, Allen shot downward with his sword ready to pierce the heart of Raven who was lying helpless on the arena.
Clang!
The sound of clashing magical metals was heard very loudly and deafeningly from the middle of the arena, creating a shockwave that blew away the surrounding dust.
All the spectators' eyes turned to the middle of the arena. The sight there made everyone hold their breath once again.
At the sword's point of impact, Alrain was already standing tall with a very sharp and high-pressure wind element longsword to stop the pace of the light sword aiming at Raven.
No one had ever expected that Allen's movement, which was as fast as a flash of light, could be caught up to and stopped with such precision by another participant from the Vedegra family, the participant who had just killed Orvion with only a single leg strike in the previous match.
"What are you doing, Allen?!" exclaimed Alrain while withstanding the immense pressure from the light sword, trying to snap his husband's first spouse back to his senses. "Do you intentionally want to kill this prince and cause huge trouble for our husband?"
Allen did not answer a single word. The pink-haired youth's eyes looked empty and did not radiate human-like consciousness. He only stared at Alrain's face with a flat gaze yet filled with pure hostility.
The light sword in his hand was actually pressed further down, trying to break through Alrain's defense.
Realizing that Allen had completely lost his sanity, Alrain turned his head and looked towards the spectator stands.
"Davin! Quickly move Raven's body to the participant stands right now!" shouted Alrain loudly from the middle of the arena. "I cannot fight if I have to protect this person's body behind me!"
"But—"
"Just do it quickly!" cut Alrain firmly, accepting no arguments. "This is no longer the time for you to hide your power! Right now, Allen's power is running rampant while he has lost his consciousness!"
Davin had no other choice. The youth immediately stood up straight from his seat and pointed one of his hands straight forward towards the arena.
In the middle of the arena, a purplish-black dimensional circle suddenly appeared and opened a space right beneath the helpless body of Raven.
The prince's body immediately sank and was swallowed, safely relocated to the floor of the special participant stands.
Davin's power that could manipulate space and use high-tier dimensional magic successfully made the panel of judges, the host, and other academy higher-ups stand up from their seats with expressions of disbelief.
In the middle of the arena, Alrain struck his wind sword to push his opponent back.
Allen was pushed back slightly and hovered in the sky again. His eyes looked down, locking onto Alrain's figure with a highly hostile gaze.
Seeing Allen taking his distance like a predator analyzing its prey, Alrain let out a rough sigh.
"Hey Allen, snap out of it!" shouted Alrain again, lowering his sword slightly to show that he had no intention of hurting their husband's first spouse. "I absolutely do not want to hurt you here! Remember our goal! Do you not consider how our husband would feel seeing the two of us fighting each other like this?!"
