Chapter 79: The Lazy Genius!

Chapter 79: The Lazy Genius!

Hassan walked out of black smoke with small burn injuries all over his body, while Irina stood up. They both looked at each other and nodded. With that short interaction, they both attacked Kai from his two sides.

Kai sighed and jumped to the air, still holding the last arrow in his hand with the psychic arrow orbiting around him. He fired the last arrow, aiming towards Irina with great speed. But it wasnt fast enough to hit her as she dodged easily. In the next second, she heard Hassans warning. Look out!

The arrow Irina dodged had curved, returning towards her. She looked behind herself in disbelief at the unbelievable scene. She was sure it was not the psychic arrow. However, it was too late. She had no time to dodge and could only send a column of cold air to the arrow to slow it down. As she did so, the psychic arrow came towards her in another direction, nearly missing her neck. With that, she was taken out of the game.

Kai had managed to hit his last arrow with a psychic arrow to rebound it back at her. Before she could dodge for a second time, he controlled the psychic arrow from another direction as she was distracted to slow the curved arrow. The psychic arrow had intentionally missed her neck. With that, he was able to throw Irina out of the ring.

Irina looked at Kai with hatred as she left the stage. If looks could kill, he would already have been scattered throughout the stage in blood and gore. She could not, however. After all, this was just a showdown, as they couldnt injure or kill each other.

Hassan sighed and looked at the duo. Irina hated Kai because of his laziness. She worked so hard to prove herself. In the end, she could only get second-place because Kai was too lazy to continue fighting. She couldnt accept it.

Irina faced and challenged him, but Kai denied in a heartbeat. Now that they were fighting two against one, she still lost to him.

Hassan knew that it had a big impact on the ladys self-esteem. He looked at Kai with grief and charged his weapon. He didnt want to use this, but now he had to punish his best friend. A giant weapon appeared in his hand. It was a giant stone sword, getting thicker at the top. Hassan let the tip of the sword hit the ground, and the stage shook.

How heavy is that weapon? Onlookers gasped in surprise.

Hassan lifted the heavy sword over his head and dashed towards Kai. He couldnt catch him without any extra weight, so now it was even more impossible, but if the audience could see that, so could Hassan.

When Hassan arrived in front of Kai, the latter already jumped back and nocked an arrow to his bow. When he fired the arrow, Hassan swung his heavy stone sword at the empty air. Hassan's sword broke into evenly pieces, and each piece flew to Kai at great speed. Hassan couldnt control the Earth, but he could, to some extent, shift it. When the stone pieces flew to Kai, Hassan lifted the now empty skeleton of the weapon and moved it in the trajectory of Kais escape path.

Kai jumped over and over again, but stone parts were chasing him without a break. He could hardly escape from them, let alone attacking back. He created steel steps and jumped to the air, but the stone pieces followed him in the air as well. He knew his friend couldnt control them for a long time, so he was dodging with minimum movements to save his energy, but Hassan wasnt going to let him as he wished. He was also training hard and wasnt going to let Kai do as he wanted.

When Kai was in the air, Hassan used one of the stone pieces and used it as a platform, just as Kai did with his steels. Hassan dashed with great momentum and appeared in front of Kai. His grey punch moved like a meteorite and was about to hit Kais chest. If he were to be hit in the air, he would fall heavily. But Kai created a steel screen in front of him and crossed his arms behind it. Hassans fist dented the steel screen in the shape of his fist, but Kai was scot-free.

Kai landed to the ground gracefully and fished out another two orbs one purple, one red. He then nocked arrows to the bow at the same time and fired them at airborne Hassan.

Hassan couldnt control his stone pieces as easily as Kai did, so he could only land with gravity. But now that Kai was firing his weapons, he couldnt dodge them in the air. With no other choice, Hassan recalled the stone pieces. They formed into the giant sword in his hand, once again.

Two arrows arrived in front of Hassan at great speed, and he increased his stone control to strengthen his stone sword so he could fight back against the two arrows. He held his sword in front of two arrows. But when they arrived, the weapons curved - one went to his left, while the other went to his right. It was as if a ghost was carrying the arrows, and moved them from their initial trajectories.

Hassan looked at the arrows helplessly as they appeared behind him. Two arrows collided, and lightning and fire appeared behind him. When they unleashed their elements, a small explosion was born and exploded behind Hassan. Because he moved all his Earth elements to his weapon to protect against the arrows, his back was more vulnerable. The explosion was not close, but the impact was still strong enough to send him flying.

Kai was waiting beneath Hassan with his Psychic element arrow and caught the latter. He placed the arrow at Hassans neck and asked, Is this enough?

Yes, yes. It is enough. Hassan could only answer in defeat.

The previous air around Kai disappeared, and his eyes turned lazy once again. He turned the arrow into an orb form and placed it on his belt. Then he collected the other arrows. Two of them exploded and couldnt be used again, but others were still fine.

After that, he lazily left the stage.

Thank you all for coming and watching. Hassan said to the audience and left the stage as well.

Carl looked at Miles and Mae with stars shining in his eyes. He was so thrilled. Arent they awesome?

Mae chuckled and looked at Miles, but noticed he was still looking at the stage absentmindedly. Miles? She called for him, but Miles was still looking at the empty stage.

Miles! She said as she tapped his shoulder. Only then Miles came back to himself.

Are you okay? She asked.

Yes, sorry. The fight gave me some inspiration. Miles answered and smiled at her.

They left the venue to eat dinner together, of course, Carls treat.
