Chapter 262: Battle For Blood (VI)

Kazuki's face turned ugly when he heard it and before he could defend it, another hammer appeared right into his face and sent him a bit of a distance. He didn't get as far as earlier but he still got almost wrecked hard.

Sigma just stood there without moving much. As expected, she is just going to stay in place unless she releases an AOE skill that Holy Knights possess. But I doubt that is the case, she is just biding her time and finding out what our weaknesses are.

"It looks like two of our finalists are already dealing with each other! I don't know what is going on with our female finalist here but she just seemed to observe or rather, she is just staying out of the fight? We don't know just yet but this fight of the two guys is much more intense!"

Kazuki is already showing signs of frustration. After all, I am chasing him around with a hammer in hand while he is trying to get close to Sigma. He is disregarding what is happening around him and just continues to retreat from my attacks without bothering to throw back an attack at all.

"Will you cut it out? I am trying to deal with my prey here, if you want to die badly, you need to fall in line first!"

BANG!

"Do you take me for an idiot? Only someone like you would ignore an attacking player like me in this elimination round. It would be best if you take me seriously instead."

BANG!

I swing my hammer again and it barely missed him. I can't allow him to keep running forever. Of course, it is much easier for me if Sigma is the one who will finish off Kazuki but I wanted to be the one who will do the deed. The bad blood between us goes way back in the past timeline. Besides, I would be satisfied just destroying that face of his in public.

"[Heavenly Chains]"

Out of nowhere, Sigma suddenly cast a spell. I am familiar with it so instead of pursuing Kazuki further, I dodged from where I previously stood and a gold chain sprouts out of the ground on where I am standing earlier. I am quite sure now what she is about to do and I don't want to be captured by that as long as the battle is still up. As for Kazuki, he didn't expect it to pop out like that causing him to get entangled in the spell.

"What the f*ck?!"

[Heavenly Chains] is one of the Holy Knight's restrain spells alongside the [Heavenly Cross Seal]. Once captured by the chains, magic spells and movement will be restricted. It is easy to dodge away but it was really annoying if you get caught since you have to struggle out by yourself without the aid of magic skills and other powers you possess.

Sigma's eyes glow into a gold color and she raises her mace up in the air. The [Heavenly Chains] that binds Kazuki started to rattle and glow brighter than before.

"Huh? What is happening?! Why can't I get out of these pesky chains?!"

Kazuki is still far too weak it seems since he can't even break out of the [Heavenly Chains] as easily as he can in the past timeline. Unfortunately, it seems the saving grace of Kazuki from being under the bindings of the [Heavenly Spear]. It's unfortunate but not unexpected. He just run out of luck this time around as I can easily tell what Sigma is about to do.

"[Spear of Heavens]."

Large spears the size of street lamposts appear up in the sky. One might be good enough to dodge but there are at least a few dozen and another dozen after the first dozen is released. And to Kazuki who unfortunately got caught by the [Heavenly Chains], if he ever not be able to get out of the bindings, he will automatically be placed in the third place of the rankings.

"F*CK! F*CK! F*CK!"

Kazuki's screams echoed in the arena as the [Spear of Heavens] rain down the arena. As for me, I didn't hesitate to run around and remember the position of the [Spear of Heavens]. They might be big but they are not homing missiles that will follow and kill me in the process.

DANG DANG DANG DANG DANG

The arena immediately got filled with the [Spear of Heavens] and the place barely have any place left to stand aside from the area surrounding around Sigma. Sigma didn't look surprised when I came out unscathed from the rain of [Spear of Heavens]. She just remained there standing with her stoic face.

As for Kazuki? Well, his body is now crushed into a meat paste by the [Spears of Heavens] after the [Heavenly Chains] keep him from moving at all. It was an unfortunate event for him really, but with Sigma as an enemy, I don't think he even has a single chance even if he managed to defeat me and fight Sigma alone.

"Holy sh*t! Sigma-chan is just standing there menacingly while ravaging the whole arena with her [Spears of Heavens]! One of the contestants already fell from the battle which means our third placer is none other than Kaisar himself! It's unfortunate that he didn't make it far from the battle and it barely started but I can't complain about it especially since he got squashed real good from the skill and he was previously battered by Bladeheart earlier, making him a lot in lower health."

"But enough of that, everyone looks! It seems like Kaisar is the only one who suffered the assault! Bladeheart managed to avoid the hurdle and came out unscathed of the [Spear of Heavens] assault! He did the impossible! I mean, even I would have died from that assault! The arena is full of the spears that there are barely anywhere to hide and dodge it!"

The emcee is not wrong but that is not a problem for me who has survived much more difficult situations incomparable to this which is not even that hard. It may be hard to dodge them all but it's not impossible. That is just quite an exaggeration, to be honest.

I know Sigma won't bother moving but I will make sure she will have to move away from where she is standing. I pointed my forefinger to her and activated one of the spells I bought just for this occasion.

"[Defense Down]"

Sigma who is just standing there without doing much felt the strange feeling on her body. But due to how insignificant the effects of [Defense Down] to a player who has an overwhelming defense, it's not a big problem for her. However, that is not the case for me. A small debuff is enough to at least make a bigger way to penetrate her defenses.

After the [Defense Down], I immediately went towards her location. As expected, she is going to face me head-on. And that is fine!

I quickly attacked her with a flurry of strikes from my Magic Sword. And as expected, even though the mace is a bit tad slower compared to the Magic Sword with a bit higher speed compared to a normal sword and is a bit slower than the fastest weapon which is the Katana, she managed to catch up with all of the strikes perfectly. Too bad that even if she managed to stop the basic attacks I did, it didn't stop the debuff of my weapon from activating.

The effects logs in my interface are showing fast messages that Sigma has been inflicted some debuffs.

And before Sigma can understand what is happening, she grits in pain and has to stop defending after the effects of [Corrode] proc and affected her body.

Corrode is technically a combination of Defense down+Poison+Curse. It persists and not only does Corrode become annoying, but it is also troublesome since it can even render the defense values of your armor useless as it will slowly degrade your armor during combat. Once Corrode is gone, your status returns to normal of course but this one is harder to get rid of unless you have someone like a cleric in your team or if you are a paladin yourself who has a self debuff cleansing ability.

Also, there is no class that has an ability to inflict Corrode since Corrode is a debuff that was previously exclusive to be used by the enemies. It was the first time for me to be capable of using it.

Too bad for Sigma, Holy Knight might be the combat variant of Paladin and Cleric combined but it lacked the debuff cleansing ability the two classes have. The Corrode debuff will have to stay until the very end of the battle.

"Eek!" Sigma was sent flying and landed on one of the bodies of the [Spears of Heaven]. The immovable Holy Knight that managed to terrify many players and managed to defend a whole kingdom against the assault of enemies has finally moved away from where she stood.
