"Mhmm... It is actually a torturing skill and usually used along with paralysing and nerve control magic, basically with that fire wall around the target, the target will not get burnt but instead, they will be slowly cooked alive as they are unable to move due to the nerve control or paralysing magic. But sometimes it can be more gruesome, Maria will let his victim moves freely but at the same time the fire wall will follow their movements tightly, which makes it almost impossible to escape, the victim can only run in despair while getting slowly cooked." said Chris. "Due to the cruel nature of this technique, Maria hates and rarely used it." said Sky.
"That sounds brutal, but why is he using that technique now on the field, is he trying to... cook his opponent alive?" Itsuki asked, a bit worried. "Well, we are not very sure about that, he definitely has other better and milder skills to against that strategy of his opponent, but then, he chose this instead. He is quite unpredictable sometimes." said Sky. "I believe he is kind of mad of his opponent's attacks, he care a lot about his attire more than I do, you know? Moreover, he is wearing a new dress he bought yesterday." said Chris. "Ah... Now you mentioned it, I just realised about that. His opponent had certainly made the worst move ever." said Sky...

Field B. Maria's opponent had started showing signs of panic after several failed attempts to escape Maria's fire trap. Maria is sitting on the field watching his opponent's misery. As Maria's opponent became more and more panicked, the movements of the dusty wind become more vigorous and slightly out of control that Maria had no choice but to set up an inverted barrier around the field to prevent the invasive dust to spread out from field B. Then he continued sitting on the field without taking any moves as he stared at his opponent in the fire trap...
"Oh dear! Look at our contestants on field B! Is this a battle between stamina and endurance? Will the stamina for Miss Maria ran out first. Or will Mr. Gentleman gets defeated by the extreme heat first? Let us look forward to it!" said the Emcee cat who is acting as the match reporter.
This battle of stamina and endurance continued for the next twenty minutes, only five minutes left before the time ran out. Maria who is still sitting on the field only show a sight sign of fatigue due to the invasive dust of his opponent who is still in his fire trap. However, the dust wind had started showing signs of stopping a few minutes ago and eventually stopped. As all the dust fallen off from Maria's body and totally disappeared, Maria lifted the fire trap from his opponent. As the fire trap been removed, his opponent can be seen lying unconsciously on the ground, he had fainted due to exposure of extreme heat for a long time and lack of oxygen.
"Yesss! Finally! We have a winner for Match B! Miss Maria from Team Kneel Before Me!" The Emcee Cat announced the winner in a excited tone which followed by a round applause from the audience...
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As Maria went back to the waiting area, he was greeted by his teammates, Sky and Chris doesn't seem to be very happy with what Maria had done on the field.
"Seriously, what a risky and dangerous strategy you had taken, you could have defeat him in one hit. You really have put yourself in dangerous just now." said Chris as he briefly checked Maria's condition making sure he is alright. "Aww~ Chris-chan, are you worrying about me? Don't worry, I know what I was doing, his moustache looks too perfect to be damage by my fire." said Maria as he tried to snuggle Chris but got rejected by Chris and so, he hugged and snuggled Sky who was just next to Chris. Chris sighed and turned his attention to Junior.
"Junior, you will be up next, if you could win the next round, everything later will be much easier." said Chris as he tapped Junior's shoulder, Junior nodded.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A few minutes later, the second match for the first shift started, on field B, Junior is facing a really muscular man that wore a sleeveless cowboy outfit with cowboy hat. Before the match starts, the muscular took out two pieces of cigar and offered it to Junior, Junior politely rejected it. The man laughed out a bit and he lit up both of the cigar and started smoking them in once...
"Haha! What an interesting pair we have on field B, and as usual, the match will start as soon as the bell rang, I wish all the contestants on field the best luck." said the Emcee Cat.
"Dong! Dong! Dong! Dong!" The bell rang, and another heat up match had once again started...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Waiting area.
"So, his magic is more to supportive type huh? I wonder why did the their team choose to put him at the first position." said Chris. "Well, he is consider quite powerful for average contestants after all, it's not like every team would have five strong members with offensive magic. Like our team, Harvey is the fourth person in turn, but his magic is more to defensive." said Blair. "That's understandable, but aren't it's better to put them at the later rounds to ensure the percentage of winning? And why the hell are you here in our waiting area?" Chris asked while stared hard at Blair, Blair laughed out without giving any answer.
