"Shuna, you won't be like Ravina and give up, right?" Josh asked with a sneer as they stood at opposite ends.
"I won't give up," Shuna said, determination etched on her face.
"Good," Josh nodded.
"Alright, both of you, begin fighting," Nathan soon announced the start of the match.
Shuna sprang into action the mont Nathan announced the start. She first conjured so ice spikes around her and hurled them toward Josh. At the sa ti, her body beca encased in ice armor as a blue core condensed behind her when she used the first form of Three Divine Ways.
The ice spikes reached Josh and appeared before him, but they shattered into pieces as they approached. It was as if an invisible shield stood in front of Josh, blocking the ice spikes and preventing them from reaching him.
Shuna didn't worry about that attack and appeared in front of Josh with an ice spear in her hand, thrusting it forward.
However, the ice spear was also destroyed before it could reach Josh. Seeing this, Shuna extended her foot toward Josh, releasing an overwhelming cold sheet of ice that covered the entire ground and moved toward him, intending to freeze him.
But again, as if sothing was blocking the ice sheet's path, it was stopped just short of reaching Josh.
"My ultimate defense isn't sothing you can break," Josh sneered. "If you have anything else, use it."
Shuna gritted her teeth as she saw her attacks were useless against Josh. Ignoring his taunts, she began to slowly rotate her hands, dancing as ice ford between her palms. Gradually, the ice began to take shape.
In no ti, the ice she was playing with beca a dragon. It looked like a Chinese dragon, with no wings and small legs, and a body as long as a snake's.
Shuna stopped moving, but the dragon she had ford from her ice seed full of life, revolving around her as if to protect her. But that wasn't why she had condensed this dragon.
Looking at Josh, who wore an amused expression, Shuna said, "Ice Dragon Descends."
The ice dragon seed to hear her command and moved toward Josh, freezing everything in its path.
Soon, it appeared before Josh, intending to crush him with its gigantic form. However, before it could get any closer, the ice dragon collided with sothing invisible and halted. It moved forward again but was blocked once more. It couldn't reach Josh.
Shuna appeared in front of Josh and attacked at the sa ti as the ice dragon. However, both of their attacks were blocked again. Shuna felt hopeless when she saw that.
'I can't break his defense,' she thought with a desperate expression and ca to a decision.
"Explode," she commanded the ice dragon, a determined look on her face.
The ice dragon once again slamd into the invisible barrier, but this ti it exploded into bits and pieces, sending shards toward Josh. But even those were blocked.
Shuna sighed when she saw that. She had known about Josh's unique talent, but it was her first ti realizing it was this durable. None of her attacks could harm him, which made her feel deeply disappointed.
"I give up," she finally said, choosing to surrender. She had more attacks, but all of them were on the sa level as her ice dragon. Seeing what happened to the dragon, she decided it was better to give up and think of counterasures against Josh's talent rather than attacking recklessly and still losing in the end.
"Wise choice," Josh said, though it was unclear if he was being sarcastic or genuine.
"Josh wins," Nathan declared after that. Read new chapters at m_v-l'e|-
Shuna sighed and walked back.
"You better be careful. His defense is unbreakable, but I've heard he's known for his offense," she warned Orion when she reached him.
Orion nodded seriously. In truth, even he couldn't tell what Josh had used to block all of Shuna's attacks. He had watched the entire battle with a focused expression, understanding so things and at the sa ti not.
He could see that Josh's invisible protective barrier was like his Absolute Defense, which he used to have a while ago, but unlike his, Josh's defense was solid. Anything attacking Josh would collide with the invisible barrier, protecting him from harm.
Orion also considered what Shuna had just ntioned. Josh's main strength wasn't defense but offense. This made the situation even more complicated. If his defense was so solid, what about his offense?
'It seems like I'll have to up my ga a little.'
Orion felt that Josh and Reilly must be incredibly strong to be considered the guild's top geniuses, and there would be more like them outside, so he was excited about facing them.
"Ray, you didn't get scared, did you?" Josh sneered when he saw that Ray was frowning and wasn't moving.
Orion turned his head toward him and started walking. "No, I was just thinking about your strength. You seem super strong, and I'm excited to defeat soone like you," he said with a smile.
"Beat ? Are you dreaming? Didn't you see Shuna just now? Her attacks didn't even reach . You think yours can?" Josh taunted when he heard Orion wanted to defeat him.
Orion shrugged. "She is she, and I am Ray Wiser. We are two different beings."
"Heh, then show what you've got," Josh sneered.
"Start the battle," Nathan announced at the right ti.
However, Orion didn't imdiately attack Josh. Instead, he asked him a question. "I heard your specialty lies in offense. Is this true?" He was genuinely curious.
Josh nodded with a proud expression. "You heard right. My specialty is indeed offense, but my defense is also good. It's strong enough to make people like you despair against it, to the point where you'll gladly give up the battle yourself."
Orion nodded and took out his sword. "Alright, let's begin."
