Chapter 731: A short triumph (1/2)

Proofreader: M_W Miss Fierce

After signing the Oath, both Leo and Eme Clarity removed their Magic Garment. After all, the Oath has already taken effect after signing it, so if they continue wearing their Magic Garments, it would just be akin to suicide.

”Then let's continue with the fight, Guild Leader Loki!” Eme Clarity lunged herself forwards towards Guild Leader Loki. At the same time, a new set of armor slowly wrapped around her body, ”I hope you won't regret your decision!”

Whooosh! Whooosh!

All of a sudden, Eme Clarity stopped in her tracks. She touched her cheeks and soon noticed a slight trace of a wound on her face, ”Eh?”

Looking behind her, Eme Clarity found a piece of dagger embedded in a tree with only its handle showing on the surface.

”Why would I even regret my decision?” Leo replied while wearing a mischievous smile on his face.

”You...!” Eme Clarity finally realized what was going on. If she was wearing her Magic Garment right now, then it would have easily blocked Guild Leader Loki's attack for her, thus preventing him from inflicting any sort of damage to her. However, since she is now just wearing armor, he could simply attack those locations unguarded by any, for example, her head.

”Just like what we both agreed with our Oath, a fair fight,” Leo muttered before taking out another batch of daggers from his Storage Ring and shooting them towards Eme Clarity's direction.

Eme Clarity quickly understood what Guild Leader Loki meant with her words. Even though she is wearing armor right now, it still can't protect her from him. In other words, her armor is nothing but mere ordinary clothes for him which he could simply ignore.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Raising her hand, Eme Clarity blocked Guild Leader Loki's dagger with slight difficulty. The crisp clanging sounds of her blocking his dagger immediately made her pull herself back together.

Unfortunately, Eme Clarity was a bit late as Guild Leader Loki had already arrived in front of her. The only thing she could do was use her armor to block his next attack.

Arriving in front of Eme Clarity, Leo clenched his fist before swiftly throwing a punch towards her armor. Simultaneously, he cast, ”Fireball!”

Banggg!

Eme Clarity instantly took a few steps back after receiving Leo's attack, creating two deep streaks on the ground.

”Don't underestimate me!” Eme Clarity exclaimed in irritation as she swung her dagger towards Guild Leader Loki's figure right in front of her.

Whooosh!

Seeing Eme Clarity's attack, Leo quickly decided to take out one of the pairs of Death Wake Dagger and use it to block her sword. Just using an ordinary dagger would, without a doubt, not help him at all, as it would simply split into two once making contact with her sword.

Clang!

A loud deafening sound of metal hitting against metal reverb around the two of them.

”Why would you even think of that, Eme Clarity?” Leo really didn't underestimate Eme Clarity. After all, although he claims that he could defeat her, even deemed her as an easy opponent, he still thinks of her as an opponent nonetheless.

In the next moment, Guild Leader Loki's figure suddenly disappeared from Eme Clarity's sight. Subsequently, she strangely felt her body tilting to the side, followed by a painful hit on her feet.

”No, you don't!” Eme Clarity quickly shoved her sword to the ground below her. Upon penetrating a few inches deep, she then used her other feet to jump up and make a summersault, with her sword being her center of gravity.

As soon as she landed on the ground, Eme Clarity swiftly pulled out her sword and swung it towards Guild Leader Loki, who was still crouching down, intending to return an attack.

Needless to say, Leo wouldn't just allow Eme Clarity to land a hit on him, mainly because he is not wearing any sort of armor to protect his body. If he really let himself get hit by her sword, then he'd definitely sustain a grave injury. Though that wouldn't mean that he has lost the fight, but it would undoubtedly prove really fatal in the later run of the Emerald Elven Battle Competition. After all, there is not that much time for him to rest and prepare for his next opponent after he successfully defeats Eme Clarity.

Whooosh!
