Chapter 766: Ashes Against Lorgar!

Translator: Transn Editor: Meh

The holy duel between Osha clan and Wildflame clan was about to begin as planned.

The Land of Fire had never been as lively as it was today, with the spectators almost surrounding the high platform—in order to ensure that more people enter the holy land, Iron Axe also released on loan a box of God’s Stone of Retaliation. As long as one clan had no more than 50 people, the rest of the clans would not say anything.

Even if they wanted to, they wouldn’t be able to stop them.

Osha nowadays was already the popular second strongest clan. As long as they did not oppose the Three Gods, anything they required had to be taken into careful consideration.

Under the cheerings of the crowd, Ashes slowly walked on the platform—the Ironsand people of the Mojin Clan were full of respect for real fighters and her performance the past month had earned her everyone’s respect.

Some were even calling her the strongest fighter in the Northern kingdom.

Thus, this fight was regarded as the battle between the strongest of the Nothern kingdom and the strongest of the Southernmost Region.

Ashes was still dressed like usual, her long hair tied into a ponytail and hanging down her waist. She was wearing a black robe without any armor and not carrying any weapons.

But it wasn’t because she was arrogant.

The Wildflame clan’s request for an “unarmed fight” meant according to Thuram, a fight without any weapons, armor or other supporting items including God’s Stones of Retaliation. Obviously, banning God’s Stones would help Lorgar to some degree, since it would inadvertently weaken the Extraordinary’s combat strength. Ashes believed that it was a coincidence, because in the past month, she had found out that they were not aware of the categorization of witch’s powers. As long as one had awakened, she was regarded as a Divine lady, but they did not know of the most special type of witch: the Extraordinaries.

The opponent probably just wanted a good fight.

She ultimately agreed to this request, after taking into account that the ability of Princess Lorgar of the Wildflame clan still belonged to the melee type—this information had not only been confirmed by Thuram’s description but also from many other sources. The Divine lady Lorgar’s ability was almost similar to that of Maggie’s, as she could turn into a monster while obtaining strength and agility far beyond that of ordinary people. This made her extremely excited. Who would be stronger, a transformed witch or an Extraordinary?

If it was an opponent like Anna, Ashes would have never accepted.

The unpredictable Blackfire could both defend and attack so there was no way to fight against it. Without the protection of God’s Stone, it would almost be impossible to get closer than ten meters.

On the other hand, an equal combat would also be beneficial for her.

Since she found out about the Transcendent, Ashes were always thinking of improving her ability.

According to Agatha, becoming a Transcendent required everyday practice as well as continuously battling with strong opponents. This way, through life and death situations, one could achieve high evolution.

This was the main reason that led her to accept the opponent’s request.

At that moment, a sudden cheer burst from the crowd as a woman wearing a hooded cloak swiftly jumped on the platform, heading towards Ashes. Being the strongest of them, the Sand people’s cheering for her was slightly louder. There was no doubt that she was the opponent she had to face today—the Wildflame clan’s Divine lady, Lorgar.

“You are Ashes?” she took off her hood and revealed her red curly hair as well as…a pair of tall fluffy ears.

Ashes was stunned, “Are these..dog ears?”

“Wolf ears!” Lorgar corrected her and her face instantly became red.

“Oh, you aren’t wearing shoes? Isn’t the ground too hot?” She gazed down at her bare feet.

“Mojins are never afraid of the hot sand,” She tiptoed while taking off her cloak, exposing also a fluffy tail behind her.
