Chapter 290: Switch On (1/2)
”Here we are, waiting for the next participants to come out. However, looking at this condition, I'm sure that both teams will appear before the time limit.” Sheira paused for a moment. ”In that case, let's talk about the current situation for both teams.
”First of all, the United Kingdom Team may have lost the third battle, but they have gained a huge advantage over Thersland Team. After all, from what I know, Theodore is the one commanding the entire team. Now that their leader has fallen unconscious, I wonder how Thersland Team will perform.
”Will the team show an unprecedented level of determination? Or will they collapse and lose this huge advantage they have gained?”
After uttering that question, Sheira stopped because both teams had finally sent their representatives to the arena. ”Here they are! Ellen and Sihan are going to fight for Thersland Team while Luka and Laura are trying to regain their chance for victory.”
Ellen and Sihan stopped in front of Diego with a serious expression, glaring at their opponents.
Luka raised his hands and said nonchalantly, ”Please don't glare at us. We are scared, you know.”
Laura glanced at Luka and thought, 'What Nella said is right. Their faces are a bit tense because Theodore is not with them anymore. This may be the biggest chance for us to win.'
Luka pulled his rapier while Luka stepped back and raised her staff.
Ellen also did the same as Sihan covered her from the front.
”We will claim our victory.” Ellen harrumphed.
Diego took another look at the participants before saying, ”Match starts.”
Luka quickly charged forward and thrust his rapier.
Sihan came before him and stopped him with the shield before waving his sword two times in Ellen's direction. Surprisingly, the sword released two white lights that bent and looped around him before coming straight to Luka. ”Reverse Strike.”
”…” Luka furrowed his eyebrows.
When he was about to block those two strikes, two giant walls emerged from the ground, stopping the two strikes.
At the same time, another one appeared beneath Sihan's feet and launched him to the sky.
”Knight Thrust.” Luka thrust his rapier again to the sky. A blue light flew upward, leaving a trail of the blue line.
Sihan didn't use his defensive skill. Instead, he slightly turned the shield to the side, so when it hit the shield, the light would slide down the shield and fly in another direction.
Knowing Sihan would be fine, Ellen had gained enough distance for herself and started using her skills.
”Ice Meteor.”
A huge ice boulder started falling down upon them. Even if it didn't hit Luka, Sihan would gain enough time to return to his original position.
”…” Luka thought for a moment and glanced at Laura.
”I understand.” Laura nodded and placed her hand on the ground. ”Titan Spike.”
A spike came out of the ground, piercing through the ice boulder like a skewer. The size of the spike alone was a third of the boulder and its power somehow managed to support the Ice Meteor's weight.
Still, Ellen obviously had no need to hold back anymore. That was why four star-shaped appeared on top of the ice boulder and flew straight to Luka.
”Huh?” Luka was taken aback by this skill because he knew that Ellen wasn't supposed to be able to use another skill.
He leaped backward to avoid it, but Sihan was already on top of him.
”Dawn Strike.”
Luka gritted his teeth and blocked it with his rapier, albeit he got overpowered by Sihan, who had the momentum, gravity, and initiative to boost his power.
