Chapter 290 - Switch On

"Here we are, waiting for the next participants to come out. However, looking at this condition, I'm sure that both teams will appear before the time limit." Sheira paused for a moment. "In that case, let's talk about the current situation for both teams.

"First of all, the United Kingdom Team may have lost the third battle, but they have gained a huge advantage over Thersland Team. After all, from what I know, Theodore is the one commanding the entire team. Now that their leader has fallen unconscious, I wonder how Thersland Team will perform.

"Will the team show an unprecedented level of determination? Or will they collapse and lose this huge advantage they have gained?"

After uttering that question, Sheira stopped because both teams had finally sent their representatives to the arena. "Here they are! Ellen and Sihan are going to fight for Thersland Team while Luka and Laura are trying to regain their chance for victory."

Ellen and Sihan stopped in front of Diego with a serious expression, glaring at their opponents.

Luka raised his hands and said nonchalantly, "Please don't glare at us. We are scared, you know."

Laura glanced at Luka and thought, 'What Nella said is right. Their faces are a bit tense because Theodore is not with them anymore. This may be the biggest chance for us to win.'

Luka pulled his rapier while Luka stepped back and raised her staff.

Ellen also did the same as Sihan covered her from the front.

"We will claim our victory." Ellen harrumphed.

Diego took another look at the participants before saying, "Match starts."

Luka quickly charged forward and thrust his rapier.

Sihan came before him and stopped him with the shield before waving his sword two times in Ellen's direction. Surprisingly, the sword released two white lights that bent and looped around him before coming straight to Luka. "Reverse Strike."

"…" Luka furrowed his eyebrows.

When he was about to block those two strikes, two giant walls emerged from the ground, stopping the two strikes.

At the same time, another one appeared beneath Sihan's feet and launched him to the sky.

"Knight Thrust." Luka thrust his rapier again to the sky. A blue light flew upward, leaving a trail of the blue line.

Sihan didn't use his defensive skill. Instead, he slightly turned the shield to the side, so when it hit the shield, the light would slide down the shield and fly in another direction.

Knowing Sihan would be fine, Ellen had gained enough distance for herself and started using her skills.

"Ice Meteor."

A huge ice boulder started falling down upon them. Even if it didn't hit Luka, Sihan would gain enough time to return to his original position.

"…" Luka thought for a moment and glanced at Laura.

"I understand." Laura nodded and placed her hand on the ground. "Titan Spike."

A spike came out of the ground, piercing through the ice boulder like a skewer. The size of the spike alone was a third of the boulder and its power somehow managed to support the Ice Meteor's weight.

Still, Ellen obviously had no need to hold back anymore. That was why four star-shaped appeared on top of the ice boulder and flew straight to Luka.

"Huh?" Luka was taken aback by this skill because he knew that Ellen wasn't supposed to be able to use another skill.

He leaped backward to avoid it, but Sihan was already on top of him.

"Dawn Strike."

Luka gritted his teeth and blocked it with his rapier, albeit he got overpowered by Sihan, who had the momentum, gravity, and initiative to boost his power.

"Kh." Luka dropped to his butt before his back touched the ground. All the attacks suddenly disappeared.

With Luka being pinned on the ground, Ellen quickly followed the attack. "Ice Storm."

A cloud was formed on top of Ellen and started raining small ice cubes.

This would seriously hurt someone if they were not careful, but luckily, Luka had a backup.

Another wall emerged from the ground and blocked all the incoming cubes for Luka.

However, three Ice Lotuses appeared above Sihan, preparing to go down.

"Kh…" Luka gritted his teeth, knowing he wouldn't be able to avoid this.

However, Laura decided to do it in another way. When Sihan was about to leave, she raised the ground, lifted the two guys up and forced them to hit the Lotuses.

With the acceleration and gravity, Sihan had difficulty leaping away.

In the end, he could only roll to the side and cover his body with his shield.

Luka also did the same with his rapier.

As soon as the ground stopped, Luka shouted, "Laura! That Ellen can wield two skills at the same time!"

"What? Dual Wielding?" Laura dropped her jaw to the ground and shook the thought off, regaining her focus on the match. "I will handle her."

Laura quickly made her way to Ellen. She raised her hand as multiple sphere-shaped dirt floated to the air before turning into palm-sized nails.

"Ice Wave."

The Ice Crystals appeared in front of Ellen and blocked all the nails.

"I have finally understood it, Theo. Looking at the synergy between you and your clone reminds me there is one more effective way to use my dual skill wielding." Ellen smiled as if she had been waiting for Laura to come. She pointed her finger at her and released a small ball. "Frost Nova."

"!!!" Laura furrowed her eyebrows as she realized Ellen's speed was too fast for her to replicate.

Right before Ellen's Frost Nova hit her, the ground began to shake and reemerged, blocking that attack at the last second.

But Laura soon noticed the drop of the temperature as she looked up, finding the same three lotuses that hit Luka.

She wanted to use her skill, but she couldn't keep up anymore. "It's too late."

In the end, she tried to cover her hands with rocks.

Because of the short time she had, the golem's arms were incomplete as she was required to destroy the wall she just made.

"Ha!" She struck the wall as hard as it could until it snapped into two with the top part falling on top of her. Still, without the golem's complete arm, the force transmitted from the clash turned into pain. "Gah!"

Bam.

The lotuses hit the broken wall and pushed her to the ground. Because she was surrounded by Ice Crystals, some of them snapped because of the dirt wall above it as the pointed tip somehow grazed her left arm and right thigh. "Kh."

Laura realized Ellen's fighting style and glared at her while enduring the pain.

"Just like your combination, I can simply use my skills in succession. In other words, I can cast my skill without stopping, allowing me to rapid-fire my skill." Ellen couldn't help but smile, thinking about Theo. The smile contained her excitement as her switch turned on, and she said to Laura while releasing her killing intent. "Now, now. Let's enjoy this match, shall we?"
