Chapter 26 - Kaito's Tactics!

However, the shift in items meant that Georyy was now the new Prey, and the other Predators wasted no time in converging on him. Determined to wrestle the item away, they launched a relentless assault, attacking from all sides. But Georyy was no ordinary opponent. His combat skills and strategic mind were unmatched, and one by one, he dispatched his assailants with ease.

"How did he get here..."

"I was so close to snatching the item, if only Georyy didn't show up..."

"But we'll, I better hide and follow him waiting for another perfect moment."

Sylphia, not wanting to risk an outright confrontation, knew she had to bide her time. She retreated into the dense underbrush, hiding herself from Georyy's line of sight. Her mind raced with thoughts of how to outmaneuver him and secure the item for herself.

As Georyy deftly evaded his pursuers, he sought a safe place to regroup and devise a plan. He knew that his current location was no longer secure, and he needed a moment to strategize his next move. With a burst of speed, he darted between the trees, seeking a hidden alcove to assess the situation.

Meanwhile, Sylphia observed from her hiding spot, her keen eyes scanning the area for any sign of Georyy. She knew that facing him head-on would be a risky endeavor, and she needed to find a way to outsmart him. Her agile mind worked through the options, weighing the risks and rewards of each course of action.

...

As Georyy moved with calculated precision, he kept himself in constant motion, never staying in one spot for too long. His plan was to outwit his opponents and avoid any potential traps set for him.

"The best plan of action will be constantly moving and not staying in one spot."

"This way Predators won't be able to get close to me..."

However, little did he know that Kaito, the cunning strategist from Class 1B, had been meticulously observing his every move.

"I think I'm really far away from the Predators, they won't make it in time."

"If I just keep going in this direction I should win..."

As the minutes ticked by, Georyy's confidence grew, believing he could outmaneuver anyone who dared challenge him.

"Wait I sense someone near me..."

"Is someone following me..?"

"Well they won't be able to beat m...e..."

...

"W H H H A A A A . . . . ."

"I stepped into a trap..."

But as he ventured deeper into the forest, he unknowingly stepped into Kaito's carefully laid trap. In an instant, the ground beneath him gave way, and he found himself ensnared in a powerful magic spell.

"Who made this, how did they know I will be here..."

"Is the person following me, intentionally led me here..."

The trap, a complex web of enchantments, restricted Georyy's movements, rendering him unable to break free. As he struggled against the magical bindings, he felt his powers being drained, leaving him weakened and vulnerable.

"It looks like I can't get out of here..."

"It's not possible to move... and it's even draining my magical powers..."

Kaito, who had been watching from a concealed vantage point, couldn't help but smile triumphantly. His plan had worked flawlessly, and he had succeeded in capturing his elusive target. Georyy, renowned for his combat prowess and agility, now found himself at the mercy of Kaito's intellect.

With a smug expression, Kaito approached the trapped Georyy, reveling in his hard-earned victory. He knew that defeating Georyy in a head-on battle would have been nearly impossible, but by employing his strategic acumen and careful planning, he had managed to outwit the formidable opponent.

"Haa, Haa... finally I captured you..."

"It's my victory..."

"I finally beat you down, not with strength but with mind..."

Kaito says while approaching Georyy and taking the Item from him. Georyy just watching could even move a muscle. Announcement gets made Georyy eliminated and Kaito now a Prey.

"Now I have to wait five minutes and it will be my victory..."

"Other Predators won't reach in time, as you planned..."

Kaito released Georyy as he is now eliminated and can't do anything...

"That was a good strategy, but you shouldn't underestimate other Predators."

Georyy left while warning Kaito. As he did other Predators closed in, drawn by the commotion.

"Soo... others made it here, before five minutes..."

"Impressive but, I did anticipated this even if they arrived early..."

Kaito's confidence only soared. He had anticipated their arrival and planned for every eventuality. He had trapped his surroundings with the same trap he trapped Georyy with. He standing in the middle of all the traps just watching as other Predators just fell into his trap.

"Huh... what's this..."

"I'm trapped, can't move..."

"It's draining my energy."

"It's a trap..."

Predators shouting as they fell in the traps.
