God of Tricksters

Chapter 291 - Desperate



"Ellen, Ellen just showed us something incredible. Let me explain If you haven't heard about this yet. When you reach a certain level of mastery, you can wield two skills at once, combining them to create a whole new level of skill.

"This is different from Theodore's illusion because it doesn't impact much and the control required to use it is probably not that much. This is the true Dual Wielding. However, I can see that Ellen's control has yet to achieve this kind of mastery. Even I can only hope for it in the future.

"In other words, she has the talent to use two skills at the same time from the start. In the future, she may become a scary magician that keeps using her skills continuously.

"Take a look at her fighting style. Instead of using two skills simultaneously, Ellen decided to use them in rapid succession. In other words, no magician can keep up with her attacks, especially Laura.

"This is a very smart move. If Ellen used her skills simultaneously, Laura could counter it with perfect skill. However, now that Ellen uses it in rapid succession, Laura has no choice other than to counter it one by one. Unfortunately for her, Ellen will use another skill to destroy her technique.

"As I said earlier, Laura can't keep up with her, so it's going to be a hard fight for Laura. What is this team?! The leader is the holder of Skill Verse. The other leader is one of the top experts among all students in the world. Ellen also has Dual Wielding… No wonder Thersland can reach this stage."

The crowd was astonished after listening to Sheira's explanation. Although she didn't mention it, Laust also received his blessing in this competition and Phyrill was also a blessing holder.

Laura could only grit her teeth when she saw another skill coming. Because of the uncertainty, she decided to retreat after summoning a huge wall that covered her vision.

At the same time, Luka called her out loud. "Laura."

Laura turned to him and saw his expression. She closed her eyes for a second and took a deep breath.

After avoiding Ellen's attack, Laura placed her hand on the ground. "Golem Creation."

"…" Ellen's expression turned grim when she saw the rocks start to join together, building up to thirty feet in height.

At the same time, Laura suddenly entered the golem's body and controlled it.

"Seriously?" Ellen clicked her tongue. "Controlling a massive body like this will seriously hurt her Magic Power Reserve and brain. She's not going to last long, but I wonder if I can stay alive under its onslaught."

The golem's palm went to Ellen, trying to smack her like a mosquito.

The speed was slow, but because of its giant body, it could reach Ellen's position faster than everyone could see. This was why a giant body was harder when you fought it instead of watching someone fighting it from afar.

In Ellen's eyes, the golem moved fast. Despite running with all her might, she barely avoided the smack.

"Freezing—" When she was about to release her skill, the hand moved again, sweeping her from the left.

"Kh." Ellen ran away as far as possible.

Seeing this, Laura quickly chased her.

Even though she moved slowly, Laura managed to catch up with Ellen this whole time while trying to hit her.

"Ice Meteor." Ellen summoned the Ice Meteor as it might probably be the only one that could destroy the golem, but she instantly regretted the decision.

As soon as the Ice Meteor was completed, Laura grabbed the giant boulder with the golem's hands and tossed it to Ellen.

"Ellen." Sihan pushed Luka back and ran toward Ellen.

Obviously, Luka wouldn't let him as he instantly caught up and thrust his rapier.

Sihan gritted his teeth and used his shield to block it before getting occupied by Luka again.

On the other hand, Ellen was rolling on the ground after jumping to the side as far as possible, barely dodging her own Ice Meteor.

Unfortunately for her, Ellen saw the golem's foot almost stepped on her.

"Kh." Ellen clenched her teeth, unwilling to lose, albeit she truly had no other option. She closed her eyes before the golem stomped the ground, turning the arena into a crater.

Diego obviously appeared next to Ellen and contained that stomp with a single hand.

"Ellen is out," Diego announced out loud, so Laura could hear it too.

After that, the golem started to crack and crumbled, revealing Laura's appearance. As Ellen predicted, Laura's condition was worse than hers.

There was blood streaming out of her mouth, nose, and eyes as Laura almost fell unconscious.

She just took another look at Ellen and smiled. "I'm glad. We still can win…"

She coughed up some blood before Diego caught her and sent her to the gate together with Ellen.

"I'm sorry. To think I needed to do the same thing as Zhong Li... You were strong enough to make me know it was impossible for me to win without sacrificing something. Haiz, it seems I need one month to recuperate." Laura apologized while leaning on the wall, waiting for the medical team to come.

Ellen let out a long sigh and replied helplessly. "We both were desperate to win. I guess second place due to injury is better than third or fourth place."

"Ahaha." Laura chuckled before Ellen picked her up, carrying her inside to ensure they were not in the arena, showing good sportsmanship.

Even Laura was amused and couldn't help but smile.

Meanwhile, Sihan and Luka were glaring at each other with their bodies remaining still.

"I apologize. We need to win." Luka raised his sword.

"Tell that line after you defeat me." Sihan raised both his shield and sword before golden light began to envelop them.

"Huh?!" Luka widened his eyes because he thought it was supposed to be only one of them covered with this Magic Power. "Dual Wielding? No. This is…!!!"

Luka drew a gasp before Sihan sent out a cross crescent-shaped Sword Wave from the combined effort of his sword and shield.

"Grand Cross."
