Chapter 112 - Chapter 109: First Round (2)

As for the results of the attacks...

The elf got hit and his chest was split open, resulting in not only blood being spilled, but also a barrier to appear around him and quickly healing his wound. As for the blond man though, the Mana Cutter did hit him, but it wasn't enough to cause him an significant damage, although it was enough to distract him, allowing Quarry to get one good attack, giving his opponent an arm injury and get the upper edge on their duel.

"Skyshooter has been taken out of commission for the first battle." Fifteen yelled loudly and then landed next to the elf, before taking him away outside of the arena. As that was happening, Hawkeye appeared right next to Soren and asked with a serious expression:

"That was reckless, did you really think that was a good idea? If it wasn't for me, you would be the first one to go down."

"I'm sorry, but I'm not used to fighting like this. I can handle a battle of attrition, but I was constantly on the move, without even having a chance to rest and I'm not used to moving with my own two feet, so I'm just glad that I haven't tripped already." Soren apologized with a tired and slightly sweaty expression, as he wiped his forehead a bit. As for Hawkeye, she could only sigh before asking, while pointing at his scarred feet:

"Do you think you can move, with your feet looking like that?"

"Maybe...? I doubt I would, but..." As he was going to answer, he looked behind her and then noticed a faint silhouette floating on the air and then quickly used his Third Eye, only for the silhouette to disappear completely.

"No way..." Soren couldn't help but exclaim with a shocked expression and quickly turned off his Third Eye and barely catching sight of the silhouette that quickly floating around.

'What the hell is going on? My Third Eye has never failed on detecting any presences, so how is possible to be unable to see with my skill, but barely see it with my own two eyes?' Soren complained to himself, while putting on an annoyed expression and then quickly asked:

"Tell me, have you seen the masked man at all?"

"Nothing from him. His stealth must be pretty strong, considering I can't see him even with my high Reflex stat. Either that or his Agility is extremely high and we can't see him." Hawkeye answered calmly. At that point, Soren quickly activated his Third Eye, only to see that a couple of lights appeared below them and he quickly yelled before rolling away from them:

"DODGE!"

After he yelled that, both of them quickly rolled away from the light and albeit the fact that Soren's injured legs made it quite a bit harder for him to move, causing him to nearly get caught in the explosion, the two of them still barely made it out in the nick of time. As he looked around again, he saw that Hawkeye had disappeared again, only to see her silhouette from the Third Eye right next to him.

"What the heck was that? That is no normal spell Sky." Hawkeye muttered with an angry voice.

"Probably something like a Mana Blast of shorts, but I don't think this is it." Soren whispered quietly, as he turned off his Third Eye and try to track down the masked man. It wasn't before long he found the faint silhouette, slowly floating to the right of him. At that moment, Soren angrily clicked his tongue and quickly brandished his blade again with a bright blue light and shot a small, fast and white projectile towards the masked man and quickly said:

"Get him quickly after my attack."

At that moment, the masked man quickly dodged to the side with a rather surprised expression, albeit still being hidden since he was sort of invisible and after he dodged, he quickly created an invisible dome around him. What no one would expect though is that the Mana Cutter spell which passed him, had suddenly slowed down and it quickly stopped, before it started traveling backwards. As it slowly traveled backwards, the curved shape of the attack started to change into a thinner, longer and more flexible shape, similarly to a piece of rope and it started to speed up. As the rope was coming towards him, Hawkeye was rather surprised to Soren's attack, but didn't lose her cool and quickly went towards the direction of his attack while also seeing the change on spell happening in real time.

The masked man was still unaware of the change on Soren's spell and quickly charged up his under Soren once again, only this time, he made sure to charge multiple of those spells around him and detonate them at the same time. At that moment, Soren also kept his focus on his spell and quickly pulled it back at him, while hoping he gets the rope on him and use that as a mark for Hawkeye. In a couple of seconds, the rope stopped and made an arching shape around the masked man, but it was barely out of his sight, making the perfect marker for Hawkeye to get the attack on him. Unfortunately for Soren, because he hadn't activated his Third Eye, he didn't see the lights that were under and around him and the moment those lights appeared normally within the last split second:

"F*-" *boom* *boom* *boom*

At the same time, the masked man feeling ecstatic, while being blindly unaware of what was behind him, suddenly felt a horrible pain assaulting him, before another one assaulting again. The reason for the pain was Hawkeye's slashes, after she quickly cut down the barrier and the rope silently, started making as many as attacks possible, before she was suddenly knocked away by a barrier that appeared around the masked man. The moment that barrier appeared, the masked man started falling down and his wounds started to heal quickly.

In the meantime, Quarry and the blond man were still trading blows, Quarry had forced the blond man to stay in the defensive, thanks to Soren's attack and quickly tried to finish his battle between the two of them. The moment they heard an explosion, they momentarily turned their heads around and saw both a light blue cloud and blood falling from the air, before that blood suddenly created a circular barrier and covered the masked man who had become visible.

At the same time though, something flied towards them from the cloud and quickly came towards the two of them. The thing then hit the blond man on his shoulder, causing him to lose his grip on the sword for a second, giving Quarry the opportunity to disarm the blond arm quickly and pinning him down. As he pinned down the blond man, Fifteen's loud words were suddenly heard:

"Golden Guardian, Trickster and Sky have been taken out of commission for the first battle. All participants of Team 6 have taken out of commission. The victory for the first battle goes to Team 8."

The moment Quarry heard those words, he couldn't help but cheer happily, before he quickly got off from the Golden Guardian. The moment he turned around to see what helped him secure his victory, he felt a horrible chill on his back, quickly turned his head towards the dissipating smokescreen and then towards the item once again, before exclaiming with a shocked expression:

"No f*cking way..."

The thing that helped him was a dismembered leg and from the smokescreen, Soren's legless body slowly started to appear, with Hawkeye coming close to Soren, while holding his other dismembered leg.
