The next match in the Assassins bracket happened soon after. The two contestants both weren't human - one was a dwarf, while one was a true demon race. Both were female.
"Who do you guys think is going to win this one?" I asked out of curiosity.
"Judging from the surface alone, the demon, Alacria," Feng Mian said in thought. "Demons have unparalleled brute strength. Dwarves, on the other hand, have their expertise in the forging of weapons and constructing arrays and whatnot."
"Brute strength… but this is a battle of assassins. So, if the dwarf just doesn't get hit, the demon can't do anything to him," Yu An Yan said.
"That's easier said than done," Lan Xiao Su analyzed. "However, dwarves do have naturally small and hard-to-hit bodies, which may make them more suitable for the Assassin role than one would expect, despite their expertise laying in the craftsmanship field."
"Let's see how this turns out," I murmured.
