Chapter 308 - Tricky Opponent
"The next match ended abruptly due to Masahiko's call. It is a bit disappointing, but they may have a hidden plan within that call." Sheira also couldn't understand Masahiko's decision, so she continued, "Anyway, now that the first battle has ended. We are moving on to the second battle. Let's call the participants to the arena."
Soon, six people entered the arena.
Phyrill thought for a mont when he saw the opponents. "Our opponents are an archer, an assassin and a fighter. In that case…"
Phyrill suddenly reached Laust's shoulders and pulled him a bit, whispering sothing to his ears.
Seeing that action, Mami furrowed her eyebrows and decided to change her strategy.
The two teams ca face to face. However, they certainly didn't let out a single word unlike the first battle.
"…" Diego paused for a few seconds to check their expressions. Knowing there wasn't much grudge to even release their killing intent, he decided to start it. "Match starts!"
In that instant, Phyrill transford while taking his swords. He then ran forward with Sihan and Laust.
The first threat ca from the right as Uki Kyoichi, the fighter, waved his sword to Sihan's neck.
Sihan struck his sword and stopped it before channeling his Magic Power to the shield, using it like his sword. "Ha."
"!!!" Kyoichi widened his eyes and slid down his sword to block this shield, only to find himself getting pushed back.
Since Sihan had his opponent, Phyrill and Laust quickly made their way to the archer.
Not wanting to give her opponents the advantage, Mami appeared above their heads with a dagger in each hand. She struck Phyrill and Laust at the sa ti. "Ending Swipe."
Suddenly, Laust and Phyrill smirked as they turned around at the sa ti, waving their blades as strongly as possible.
"We have been waiting for this!" Phyrill smirked and struck her dagger. "Lightning Blade."
"Moon Slash."
Both of them aid at her daggers because they wanted to make her lose her balance and drop to the ground where they could defeat her.
Mami let out a small smile as she hit both their weapons before sliding her daggers to change their directions a bit.
"!!!" Laust and Phyrill widened their eyes as they realized Mami wanted them to strike at each other like Clark did.
"The previous team has given such valuable information to defeat you guys." Mami smiled.
"That is if we don't learn from our mistakes." Phyrill stomped the ground to gain enough force from his lower body to move his other hand, plunging his short sword to her neck. "Don't underestimate ."
"…" Mami harrumphed as she abruptly spun in the air and kicked both their heads, pushing them back.
"Kh." Phyrill gritted his teeth and looked upward, seeing Mami floating in the air. "There it is… The Flying Skill."
While Phyrill watched Mami's movent, Laust took another step forward and waved his sword, cutting an arrow that ca to them.
Mami smiled. "Kazu, help . I am going to defeat them."
"Roger, Miss." Kazu nodded with a serious expression and pulled another arrow.
When Laust was about to get Kazu, a red fla flew over him and hit the ground like a teor. It then created a wall of fire that separated them before Mami stopped above the fire. "I hope you don't forget about ."
Phyrill sneered. "Standing above your fire, are you trying to roast yourself?"
"Whether it's strong enough to burn you or not, why don't you check it yourself?" Mami raised her hand and summoned five fireballs that created a star behind her. "Fox Fire."
"Lightning Step."
"Sonic Speed."
Both Laust and Phyrill used their movent skills and leaped to the air, slashing their swords together.
"Lightning Flash."
"Raging Bull Strike."
This would make her crash to the ground if they managed to hit her, but… Mami simply rose to the sky, not intending to fight them.
"Kh." Phyrill and Laust clicked their tongues before they exchanged looks, coming to a consensus.
As soon as they landed, both of them ran forward, targeting the archer.
Kazu had prepared for them this whole ti, so he released his arrows. "Nine Fallen Stars."
The arrow turned into nine green lights and flew to them.
Laust and Phyrill needed to take care of four lights each while the last one hit the ground, kicking up the dust to be the smokescreen.
Once again, they increased their speed and tried to slip past them.
And their effort wasn't fruitless.
The two managed to do it and erged from the smokescreen, seeing their target hadn't moved a single inch.
They thought they could take him out in this move as long as they watched out for an attack from above, but to their surprise, the threat ca from their right as Kyoichi waved his sword, releasing energy that ran through the ground.
"I am here." Kyoichi released his killing intent to gain their attention.
However, the only reason he managed to make Laust and Phyrill look at him was his appearance.
'What? He is not supposed to be here. Did he defeat Sihan in this ti span? No, I haven't heard Diego's announcent yet.' Phyrill's expression turned serious before coming to a realization. He raised his vision, finding no one in the sky.
The threat from the sky had disappeared and he could only find her on the side of the arena, throwing Sihan out.
"Sihan's out!"
'Seriously?' Laust frowned as his expression darkened.
'I haven't felt this for long to the point I have forgotten about it. What if Theo is my opponent? What if all the tricks he used until now are used against right now? What if the current Theo, who has gained experience and strength, fights now?' Phyrill sucked a cold breath as the answer was Shibuya Mami.
'We've been had.' Phyrill gritted his teeth and shouted. "Laust. We need to use it now!"
Despite not understanding his order, Laust agreed and raised his sword, gathering all the power to his blade. "Raging…"
Phyrill struck Kyoichi's sword with both blades. "Lightning Blade."
"Don't tell …" Kyoichi raised his vision and saw Laust's blade behind Phyrill. "You want to die together?"
Suddenly, Laust made a spin and slipped past them, changing his target. It turned out he was just faking it because his real target was still the archer.
Both of them shared the sa thought, 'We need to defeat the archer first to make it two versus two again.'
