As Ace backs away from the Lady Ace thinks of a better plan to beat her.
Ace draws his sword, as he pulls his sword out the lady sneers "So your not a martial arts user then." she growls as she launches at Ace, hammer in hand.
Ace dodges the large hammer attacks, as the hammer lands a huge explosion of fire explodes from the ground covering a large area covering Ace's body in fire.
Ace finds himself covered in burns and scorch marks, as the fire dies down Ace swings his sword at the lady swiftly she dodges the attack. they continue to exchange attacks, the lady continues to attack using area of effect attacks throwing fire all over the forest, as the fire spreads around trees fall and grass burning. As smoke fills the area breathing begins to get difficult for Ace.
Ace summons his shield and continues his attacks and blocks incoming attacks. Ace not using any elements as he matches the lady's strength. As they fight the lady inflicts damage over time as the fire element explodes all over the area causing burns and damage all over Ace.
Ace quickly activates Lightning Haste and rapidly explodes in speed massively. Quickly Ace lands multiple attacks.
The lady blocks the attacks barely still taking damage, "how the hell did you increase your speed by so much!" She yells, as she reacts to the ongoing attacks.
Ace's strikes not dealing much damage as she deflects them and attempts to block the attack, her defences keeping the damage to a minimum.
Slowly Ace starts over powering her as her stamina runs low, weakening the various fire element attacks that explode from her.
As Ace races at her full of strength even the ground cracking under his steps, each swing of his sword landing with impressive might, smoke and dust flying all over the area. Ace blocking various attacks from her with his shield.
Ace and her continue for another 5 minutes before her stamina runs out and she falls to the ground, as she falls to the ground in exhaustion Ace stops and slowly walks over to her with his sword ready. "You may be strong but prolonged fights result in stamina loss. I have focused on my stamina for months, I win!" Ace yells as he swings his sword multiple times dealing heaps of damage to the prone weakened lady.
Shortly after she glows blue and disappears. Ace sits down in the burnt forest area and activates Healing Light to recover his HP. Focusing on resting to restore his stamina.
Shortly after beating the lady the area sounded "4 players have been eliminated"
Ace rests and recovered his stamina after an hour. Only having an hour left of his stat boost blessing.
Heading out slowly towards the nearest competitor, looking around finding that everyone else is fairly far away. Ace decides to wander around and relax, finding nothing along the way.
A few hours pass until Ace finds himself surrounded, four people slowly coming towards him as they surround him with a fair distance between them.
Ace quickly draws his sword and summons his sand giant. Ace waits looking into the sky making it look like he is unaware and unprepared.
Ace keeps an eye on them as they slowly make their way over to him. The forest and bush land obscuring their vision of Ace and Ace's vision of them.
Ace finds that one is of the Wind element, another is a Metal element user and the last two are a non-element user. Prepared Ace decides to put his sand Giant away, deciding to fly into the air using his cloud ring, slowly gliding into the air, he puts his sword away.
Ace swiftly flies away through the trees, avoiding the sight of the foes closing in on him. Quietly evading the foes and escaping deeper into the forest. Stressed as Ace was worried if he could take on four people.
Quickly making his way into a clearing landing on the ground, Ace hears "5 players have been eliminated"
A worried face appears on Ace's face as he knows that they have to wait till three more people are eliminated.
