Chapter 49 - ARENA FIGHT (2/2)

”Coward!  Stop hiding and show yourself!”

But no one answered him.  And this situation continued until only a third of his HP was left.  He couldn't drink any red potion because drinking any kind of potion was forbidden in the Arena.  It had only been five minutes since the fight started and he was already on the losing end.  No, that guy must definitely be cheating!

”I said show yourself!”

”Here I am,” said a voice from behind then another attack landed.

He turned around and attacked no matter if there was someone there or not.  But this time, the elf was there.  He smiled at him before attacking him head on.  He raised his sword to defend against the two daggers of the elf, but the swordsman was still pushed back.

At the audience area...

”Did you see that?  That Noctis guy just went in and out of that swordsman's shadow!”

”Is that a skill?  But wait- he still doesn't have any class right?”

”Maybe it's a unique skill for the moon elves race.”

”Whatever it is, this guy is actually pretty good.”

”Yeah.  I won't be surprise if he manage to win.”

Hearing these compliments for his second brother, Luo Jin was, of course, very proud.  With a smug smile on his face, he pushed out his little chest and wanted to shout to everyone that the player they're complimenting was his brother.  He was actually pretty annoyed and worried earlier.  But seeing how his brother was beating that jerk's ass with no problem, he realized how unfounded his worry was.  Maybe, starting from now, he should trust his brother's ability more.  Because, just like what his brother often said, he's really good at this game.

Unlike the other members of the audience, Shen Ji Yun's focus was not on the way this Noctis jumped in and out of his opponent's shadow.  It was the way he fought.  He had no extra movements.  All his attacks were decisive and almost flawless.  It was almost as if this was not first time he encountered a battle like this.  Could this be something a beginner could do?

The rabbit's face suddenly appeared in his mind - that big peach blossom eyes, those pink tinge lips, the innocence he simply exuded.  No, the more accurate question was if that silly rabbit was capable of this level of battle sense.

Now Shen Ji Yun was even more confused.  It looked like his questions could only be answered once he talked with this Noctis.

The fight on the stage was still continuing.  But it was obvious to all that it already became too one-sided.  The moon elf was constantly attacking while the swordsman could only defend.

It was easy for Luo Yan to slowly deplete the opponent's HP.  It was because this guy just kept on commmitting low level mistakes.  He was probably too angry that his brain was not functioning well anymore.  So, to anger him even further, Luo Yan kept smiling sweetly at him while attacking him non-stop.

Luo Yan was right, the swordsman was indeed full of anger right now.  He was so angry that if this was happening in real life, his blood pressure would have probably already spiked.  He wanted to attack but he couldn't even see a single opening.  So all he could do was defend.  Which he also couldn't do properly.

And then, the elf suddenly jumped away from him.

”What, don't tell me you're tired already?” he mocked and was planning to attack.  Maybe this time he could hack this elf to pieces.

”No, it's because you already lost.”

”Wha--”

He glanced at his HP and saw that it was already 0.  Then suddenly, everything turned black.

The big screen above announced the player Noctis as the winner.  And the crowd at the Arena just went wild.

Luo Yan glanced back at where Luo Jin was and made a victory sign.  Luo Jin also gave him a thumbs up.  He gestured that he's going to log out, Luo Jin nodded.

Shen Ji Yun was planning to walk towards the moon elf when he saw him disappearing on the stage, a sign that he just logged out.  Shen Ji Yun was frozen in place and his handsome face was suddenly filled with black lines.
