Supreme Archer: Taking The Game's Weakest Class To The Top

Chapter 202: The First Esports Tournament — Seventh Division (8)

'We didn't even get one!' the ninja woman inwardly shouted at herself.

It was a shame for them not to get even a single person from Casual Clowns.

Those guys weren't even backed by a prestigious guild!

Their team didn't have any skill combinations prepared for them by high-level players! Their equipment was of high quality, and so was The Raven Guild's team.

It was true that none of them had any special class. Maria's Gravity Magic was the only unique part of their team, as anyone could become a ninja at low levels.

Maria received that magic from her older sister, the guild master. The rest of the team received training from other high-level players and even were taught how to combine their skills to create The Raven's Tree skill combo.

It was their trump card that should have helped them get to the mountain's spire.

At the highest altitude, Maria's gravity magic would have taken the mountain's crown and driven anyone off its peak. It was supposed to go this way! Yet, Casual Clowns demonstrated such an individual show of strength that their combo had been rendered useless!

It was a combo prepared against low-level players because no one at such a level should be able to oppose natural laws.

Casual Clowns laughed at such concepts, however.

'If we only met another team!' the ninja screamed. Had they met other participants, things should have gone their way, as Maria was one of the best pillars to play around!

The ninja woman translated her frustrations into strength, slashing at the earth wall before her. Each time she made a gap in it, however, the enemy mage would replace it with another earth wall.

He hadn't given her a single gap!

That was when the earth wall stopped regeneration.

As the ninja thought Last Coin ran out of mana, she drove herself into the wall and shattered it into pieces. What came out, however, was her nightmare.

The Dark Knight stood with his arms crossed.

The rest of the team, bar the archer, stood still behind him.

They stared at her through their masks, appearing like a group of bullies or perhaps clowns ridiculing their last foe at his last breath.

"Look at what we have here! A ninja!" Prince shouted. "Nin! Nin!"

The ninja bit her lips. She raised her dagger and held it horizontally before her chest. Even if she was alone against six, she'd not die without any damage done!

Prince hollered, "One of us is enough! My little rival!"

Shaw spat, "Dare to call me a little again, and I will slay you before you grow wings!"

"Haha! I like that!" Prince chuckled.

Taking the helm of his team, I Come In Peace clenched his spear's shaft tightly and pointed its sharp end at his opponent. He didn't have a chance to display his strength, let alone score a win, so he was eager to defeat this ninja woman and show his girlfriend that her boyfriend was more than worth cheering for!

'Anna must be cheering the most for me now. I will not disappoint my girl!' Shaw imagined his girlfriend and the jealous looks she must have gathered by now from her surroundings. She wasn't alone, but with her friends, so he could also see them sneering at jealous men.

He grew prideful.

He turned that into his strength.

Finally, these two clashed.

Though Shaw's spear was longer and gave him much more range, the ninja woman was used to fighting those kinds of opponents and agilely closed up distance with him.

Both could feel the weight of their weapons as loud bangs resounded and sparks flew from within their contact. A few health point losses were on either side.

Shaw also defended himself well with his spear's shaft.

That was when the ninja woman threw a few knives at him.

'Fast release! Must be like Jake's skill,' he blocked them off with his spear's blade and handle. The woman didn't miss those precious seconds she had bought with that move and threatened to cut Shaw's neck.

To further immobilize him, she chucked her chains at him while in motion.

That was what Shaw had been waiting for.

'I wanted you to commit this far!' he thought.

In an instant, he used all of his buff skills.

It would have taken him a few seconds had it been before coming here. Now, Shaw could turn them on in a second, thanks to the new, expensive equipment he'd received from Prince!

His presence changed.

The ninja's perception skill notified her of that.

That said, Shaw didn't give her a chance to adapt to it. He strongly drew his spear closer to himself, pulling the ninja out of her flow.

She lost the ground beneath her soles, now flying toward Shaw!

Thrusting his spear forward in a motion drilled into his muscle memory, Shaw skewered the ninja woman. Blood trailed off her stomach onto his spear's shaft, trickling down like a river.

He raised her up to present his catch to the entire world!

'No wonder she couldn't have gained an upper hand against him… these guys are so strong individually,' the ninja woman thought as her time on the scene was counted.

Once again, she was before the vista of the clowns gazing at her. This time, all of them were smiling. Their smiles sliced her heart as each appeared condescending.

The truth was that they were just happy.

The severe bleeding soon snatched the ninja.

Shaw lowered his spear and sent a thumbs up to his friends.

Prince reciprocated, "Fantastic art, my tiny rival."

"I'll kill you."

"Looks like The Raven Guild's Seventh Division Team has lost against Casual Clowns! They're the second team about to go on a vacation!" Elise spat at her microphone as she commented.

Her commentator duo and she were so interested in Casual Clowns that these two had commented on their battle against The Raven Guild from the start.

The crowd didn't mind that. It was difficult to follow everyone in the battle royal game, so the broadcast soon would show replays of other teams and their battles.

Bobby said, "Looks like the thief of The Raven Guild was told to ditch the battlefield and hide in the shadows!"

Elise asked, "What do you think of this move?"

Bobby smiled. "It's not bad. The consumable items should soon appear on the battlefields! There's a chance that one of them is to revive a few teammates! I believe The Raven Guild's thief is betting on that."

Elise exclaimed. "Ohhhh! That's true! When we think of consumables, we mostly think of potions and other items to restore health and mana points! But this is the esports tournament! The entire scene is crafted to surprise us and our participants!"

Bobby nodded. "Exactly. Furthermore, the thief's life is delaying The Territory Sphere. Casual Clowns have acquired their second sphere but can't assimilate it yet with theirs! Even if she's not betting on anything, she's doing that to spite her enemies! Such a resolution is worthy of praise!

The Raven Guild isn't going down without making their opponents pay the price!"

Elise sneered, "They didn't even get a single kill, though! Let's see where the thief player is… oh my gawd! Look at that! Her shoulder has been wounded by an arrow! The Archer is on her tail! The Archer is chasing the thief!

This is unbelievable!"

Compelled to agree, Bobby nodded three times. "This is as you say! Unbelievable! The thief is smartly zigzagging around the trees to avoid showing her presence and protect herself from pursues! She's hiding in the shadows, too! But Archer from Casual Clowns has found an angle to shoot an arrow at her!

This takes more than a skill or experience! Can he even control his arrow's flight after its release?! If not, this is a raw talent!"

Elise widened her eyes, then.

She glued her eyes to the screen.

Her voice boomed on the arena and viewers' receivers.

"He teleported to the thief and hit her face with his knee! I repeat, Archer teleported to the thief and kneed the woman's face without any hesitation! This man is an S! I tell ya!"

Bobby took over the cast, "Calm down your A double S and sit down! I'm taking over this cast now! Archer must have surprised the thief with his teleportation! It's written on her face—"

"Her face is mutilated! How can you read anything off of that?!" Elise asked.

"Quiet! I can tell that she didn't expect this teleportation! He must have teleported to her outside her perception bubble! Thieves and assassins have unique perceptions that notify them of those unexpected movements! The key is that those are in their perception reach! Archer's arrow found an angle and was released from so far behind!"

"Any words on his knee attack, Mr. Bobby?" Elise asked.

"No comments," Bobby said with a straight face.

Elise howled. "It must be the man's solidarity! You know what to do with him, queens! Meanwhile, does anyone have Archer's number?"
