System's POV - Chapter 731 For The Sake Of A Wish [Part 2]
Chapter 731 For The Sake Of A Wish [Part 2]
The sight of two beautiful ladies fighting against each other made the guys in the audience cheer loudly.
Shasha was naturally a favorite, but Char didn’t lose out as she was a very popular celebrity. Needless to say, their battle was one of the most anticipated matches ever since the lineup was finalized.
To Thirteen’s surprise, both girls were quite fast, with none of them having the advantage over the other.
The sound of their swords clashing reverberated in the surroundings, and yet, it was drowned by the excited cheers of the crowd around them.
After their umpteenth clash, both ladies backed away at the same time.
It was as if they had finished assessing each other and were now ready to take their battle to the next level.
‘I see. The information I received was correct,’ Char thought. ‘She can only unleash her full power during the night.’
A smile appeared on the young lady’s face, relieved that none of the abilities that her friends had told her about Shasha was unleashed during their brief clash earlier.
The confidence that Char felt rose a bit. As long as Shasha was unable to use the main core of her abilities, she would have the advantage in their battle.
Shasha, who was indeed unable to unleash even a third of her power during this time, remained calm.
Suddenly, something happened which made the smile on Char’s face disappear.
The sound of something moving reached her ears, making her look up.
Above the Colosseum, a special dome started to appear, covering the sky above, leaving the arena in darkness.
But this darkness didn’t last long because countless lights appeared to illuminate the venue.
The corner of Char’s lips started to twitch as she gave Zion Leventis, who was on the stage and was holding a remote control in his hand, a glare.
Since the venue was used for special events, there was a high possibility that it would rain. Because of this, it was built with a special dome that could cover the venue at any time.
Thirteen looked at the young lady glaring at him and waved at her with a smile on his face.
Shasha didn’t attack and waited for her opponent to regain her composure before taking a fighting stance.
Although she couldn’t use the Core of her Abilities during the day, as long as she was in a dark place, she would be able to use nearly half of her abilities that relied on darkness and shadows.
“You brother and sister pair are shameless,” Char said in disdain.
“Zion loves me,” Shasha replied. “That’s why.”
Not wanting to hear any more nonsense from her opponent, Char lunged at Shasha with her sword raised high.
Shasha, who was already in a fighting stance, charged forward and struck upwards.
Just as the two weapons were about to clash, a cold glint appeared within Char’s eyes as she activated the special ability of her sword.
The sword extended and seemed to become flexible.
The moment the two blades clashed, instead of being stopped, Char’s sword acted like a flail, going past Shasha’s sword blade and striking her like a scorpion stinger.
Shasha had already expected this to happen, but she was still a bit late because of how sudden, and unpredictable Char’s sword strike was.
Even though she evaded promptly, a part of her shoulder armor was slashed, leaving a long gash on top of it.
Fortunately, it didn’t draw blood, and Shasha was able to back away just in time for Char’s follow-up attack.
However, she wasn’t too lucky with Char’s third strike, because the sword tip managed to strike her left arm, which drew blood this time.
Seeing that she managed to draw first blood, Char once again unleashed a barrage of attacks, not leaving Shasha any room to have a counterattack.
The sword whip was like a snake that slithered across the arena and launched unpredictable attacks from every direction as if it were bouncing on air.
Left with no choice, Shasha used one of her abilities and melded in the shadows.
A moment later, Char kicked behind her at the same time that Shasha materialized behind her back.
Thirteen’s sister just had enough time to use her sword to block Char’s kick, but she was still sent skidding several meters away.
The Lotte Family, who was one of the Ten Prestigious Families, were ecstatic about Char’s performance because she was overwhelming her opponent in battle.
The fight between the two ladies hadn’t been that long, and yet, Shasha was clearly at a great disadvantage.
Knowing that she needed to ride the momentum, Char once again unleashed a barrage of attacks that seemed unending.
Shasha dodged, deflected, and moved gracefully on the arena as if she were dancing. Her gaze and expression were calm as if saying she had everything under her control.
But deep inside, she was feeling a bit frustrated because Char seemed to know how to counter her abilities.
‘If only we were fighting at night with a full moon,’ Shasha thought.
Zion had given her a Divine Martial Technique that was specifically designed to unleash its full power in Solterra.
In that world, there were not one but two moons.
This doubled Shasha’s fighting prowess at night, making her incredibly powerful.
However, the tournament took place during the day, and Zion could only help her a little bit by blocking out the sun above their heads.
A moment later, Shasha once again skidded backward as she defended against Char’s sword, which had momentarily transformed into a metal dragon that crashed against her with force.
Due to the impact, the blow sent Shasha crashing over the barrier, making her fans cry out in alarm.
With a wave of her hand, the Sword Whip once again descended onto Shasha, who was still trying to recover from the blow that she received earlier.
Despite her current predicament, Shasha was still able to glance at the stage where her brother was looking back at her.
It was as if she was asking him if she had permission to use one of her Trump Cards in battle.
Thirteen, who understood the meaning behind her sister’s stare, nodded his head.
At that exact moment, the sword pierced through Shasha’s body, impaling her to the barrier, making Alessia, who was watching the battle from their home, cry out in shock.
