Chapter 308: Tricky Opponent (1/2)

”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 moment 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 something to his ears.

Seeing that action, Mami furrowed her eyebrows and decided to change her strategy.

The two teams came 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 transformed while taking his swords. He then ran forward with Sihan and Laust.

The first threat came from the right as Umeki 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 same time. ”Ending Swipe.”

Suddenly, Laust and Phyrill smirked as they turned around at the same time, 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 aimed 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 me.”

”…” 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 movement, Laust took another step forward and waved his sword, cutting an arrow that came to them.

Mami smiled. ”Kazu, help me. 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 flame flew over him and hit the ground like a meteor. It then created a wall of fire that separated them before Mami stopped above the fire. ”I hope you don't forget about me.”

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.”
