Chapter 730: Leos scheme against Eme Clarity (1/2)
Proofreader: M_W Miss Fierce
It is very self-evident from this arrangement alone that Princess Tila had deliberately arranged everything to achieve the perfect show for all the spectators to watch.
”No wonder Princess Tila had given both Edi and Makky a spot to choose their opponents,” Leo thought to himself. He was really curious why Edi and Makky were chosen when their presence from the very beginning was only to make up the numbers. But now, he finally understands that this was because Princess Tila plans to make Edi and Makky fight the other two, while the three of them, specifically him, Selina, and Osborne, were to fight against Edgar Pierce, Eme Clarity, and Faye.
It wasn't only Leo who had realized this, but also the other nine players as well.
”We are going to start all the fight at the same time, so ladies and gentlemen, please enjoy the show,” Elmont announced the start of the Battle Competition before quickly flying up along with Princess Tifa and Princess Tila using their flying platform, intending to observe the fight from high up in the air.
As soon as Elmont's voice died down, the respective staff in charge of the five fights immediately issued the beginning of the Battle Competition.
”You better not hold back against me just because I am a girl, Guild Leader Loki,” Eme Clarity said while bowing her head to Guild Leader Loki as a sign of respect to her opponent.
”Rest assured, I am not the type of person that will hold back just because I am dealing against a woman,” Leo responded while also bowing his head.
In the next moment, both Leo and Eme Clarity lunged themselves towards each other.
Waving his hand, Leo swiftly took out a few daggers. Using the momentum of his hand, he shot the daggers straight towards Eme Clarity's direction.
Seeing Guild Leader Loki's action, Eme Clarity quickly equipped herself with the armor set she had prepared for the Battle Competition. She had purposely not shown it to everyone just now so they wouldn't be able to prepare anything beforehand to counter against her.
Whooosh!
A striking bright light suddenly covered Eme Clarity's entire figure as it wrapped around her body.
Leo was already very familiar with what this sight was, ”I didn't expect that you have a Magic Garment prepared for the Battle Competition, Eme Clarity,”
”Oh, so you know what this is? Then you'd better run away while it is not yet too late,” Eme Clarity said before letting out a soft chuckle.
After Eme Clarity finished her line, the light covering her body finally disappeared, allowing Leo to see a silver-colored armor that wrapped her from head to toe.
”Too bad, though, that you are not the only one who is wearing a Magic Garment,” Leo smiled mischievously before a bright light covered his entire figure. Not long after, his ordinary clothes turned into a black mantle with a few armor pieces located on the vital locations of his body.
”You...!” Eme Clarity expressed her disbelief.
”Base on how your armor looked like, your Magic Garment should only be at 5-Star level,” Leo said after a quick observation.
”This is more than enough to defeat you!” Eme Clarity exclaimed as she swung her sword towards Guild Leader Loki.
To Eme Clarity's surprised, Guilder Leader Loki didn't show any intention of blocking. Instead, he seemed too eager to receive her attack head-on.
Banggg!
A muffled explosion sounded as Eme Clarity's sword made contact with Guild Leader Loki's armor. However, what she expected to see didn't happen, as her sword wasn't able to penetrate his armor.
”This...”
”As much as I don't want to, but a certain someone with the name Lance made me a Magic Garment using a 9-Star level Magical resources,” Leo explained before punching Eme Clarity's abdomen while simultaneously casting, ”Fireball!”
Boom!
Eme Clarity's figure immediately flew a few meters away from Leo after hitting her with a Fireball spell at point-blank range.
Not waiting for Eme Clarity to make a counterattack, Leo quickly chased her figure, still in flying motion. He intended to continue with his attack, thus preventing her from making any moves.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
