Chapter 20 Ch 20 : A Way (2)
Under a countless number of gazes, Luna was currently trying her best to fend off the Goblin Lord's attack.
"Holy blast!"
Luna's pretty face became cold. The golden glow within her body surged, and her strength was increased to a certain extent. Her long hair, which extended down her back to her waist, moved automatically without wind. She swung the sword in her arm with all her might, but it only barely scratched the Goblin Lord.
One could see that Luna was giving her all. But in these circumstances, a certain someone was actually dazing off in the middle of battle, letting Luna take all the burden by herself.
' Bastard.. why is he dazing off. Has he given up…'
At first, Luna still tried to think positively. But as of now, she couldn't help but begin to feel skeptical about Cade.
The more she thought about it, the more she began to feel angry. And as she could not hold back her anger anymore, she decided to leash out.
" Hey, a little help here wouldn't hurt, would ya!"
Luna's sound filled the whole room. Even the examiners who were witnessing this battle from the screen were shaking their heads.
Bad performance was one thing, but giving up in the middle of a battle and letting your partner do all the job was something that they couldn't tolerate at all.
The examiners were all ready to write off Cade's name. But here, something happened.
Contrary to their and Luna's expectations, Cade, who had woken up from his daydream, was actually having a pretty confident face.
" Sorry, I'm a bit out of my mind just now. But don't worry, I have everything under control."
"????"
Luna wanted to scream and asked what he meant by having everything under control. But then, something that had completely exceeded her wildest dream happened.
All of a sudden, the Goblin Lord who previously had never stopped attacking suddenly felt had been slowed down a lot, and taking advantage of that moment, the Spectre Dullahan came and dealt a fatal blow. Knocking him a few meters away.
' Just.. what had just happened.'
It was obvious that Luna was surprised. In fact, it was not only Luna.
Even most of the examiners were watching this with their mouths agape, and only Elizabeth had a smirk on her mouth.
This time, her eyes which she used to look at Cade, were filled with glimmers. It was as if she had finally discovered a rough diamond that was worth being polished.
" You… what have you done?"
Luna looked at Cade full of surprise. But Cade didn't have the time to explain. While they were talking, the Goblin Lord had once again stood up, and looking at the rate at which their stamina was depleted, Cade needed to get things done as soon as possible.
" I will explain things later. For now, just follow my instruction. I have a plan about how to deal with him, but I don't have enough strength to finish him in one big attack."
There were a lot of questions on Luna's mind right now. Regardless, she knew what Cade said was indeed correct.
Since she also did not have any way to break through this situation, then why not try to bet on Cade's way.
Once again, the Goblin Lord stood up as he charged at the two.
Cade's Spectre Dullahan proceeded to block him under Cade's instruction.
Within less than a few seconds, Spectre Dullahan was already in a bitch of a pinch against the Goblin Lord's offensive.
Some of the Goblin Lord's blows actually hit Spectre Dullahan, but the Spectre Dullahanwas strong enough to avoid being hit at a vital spot.
After the first exchange, everyone had a rough outline of Spectre Dullahan's strength against the Goblin Lord and how Spectre Dullahan was at a disadvantage against the Goblin Lord.
Luna actually wanted to help, but Cade shook his head.
The way they are now, they could not miss the chance, and Luna needed to preserve her strength for a big blow that would end the Goblin Lord's life.
The next few seconds passed like forever. As of now, the Spectre Dullahan's condition was far from okay.
The armor head had lots of scratches and dent, and its arm had almost split off from its body.
It was okay, though. As long as an Arcane card didn't die, it would eventually recover after some time.
The scene was very hard to see as Spectre Dullahan was continuously tortured by the Goblin Lord.
It was up to the point where at one of the attacks, the Goblin Lord's sword successfully pierced right through the Spectre Dullahan's body.
But this was actually the time that Cade had waiting for.
Just when they thought the Spectre Dullahan had fallen, the left and right arms of Spectre Dullahan suddenly moved, and he clung hard to the Goblin Lord.
" Now! Luna, finish him off!"
Immediately as Cade shouted, Luna knew it was finally her time to shine.
Without wasting even one second, as she could see that Spectre DUllahan was already at the end of his gas, Luna quickly poured everything she got into her sword.
No chance to fail.
This was what Luna was currently thinking. They only have this one chance, and she surely could not fail.
" Golden Winged Strike!"
The aura within her began to surge simultaneously. Immediately, she launched their fiercest attacks on the Goblin Lord.
One could only see Luna's golden flashing as they heard the loud noises erupting from the collision of the aura and watched energy ripples from within the examination room.
