Chapter 213: Two-handed Heavenly Blade
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Dream Seeker tightly held Traceless in his hands.
“You’re really strong.”
Dream Seeker looked at Heavenly Blade as beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
That skill he did was beyond Dream Seeker’s reach.
“But, I don’t want to admit defeat.”
Dream Seeker put on his cloak and held the compass in one hand and Traceless in the other. Then, he disappeared from the spot.
“Heh.”
Heavenly Blade sneered and disappeared from where he was.
Except for the burning flames, no one could see the figures of the two people in the ring. Only the sound of weapons colliding could be heard in the empty ring. From time to time, the sound of explosions could be heard.
Many people in the audience seats stretched their necks and pricked up their ears, trying to identify their positions through the sound.
Gradually, some afterimages appeared in the arena.
They were the shadows of bombs and blades.
Blades clashed and bombs flew in all directions.
The audience could not keep up with the two players in the arena, but the sounds that kept bursting out made the players nervous.
The audience all held their breaths and concentrated, not daring to make a single sound.
They were afraid that even the slightest movement would interfere with their ability to hear the movements in the arena.
The battle did not last long.
Very soon, Dream Seeker’s figure appeared in midair.
His body was covered in blood marks and Heavenly Blade appeared above his head. He raised his leg high and ruthlessly chopped down.
With a loud sound, Dream Seeker was smashed into the ground. He spat out a mouthful of blood.
The dagger of Heavenly Blade was poisonous.
From the beginning to the end, Heavenly Blade only held onto this dagger.
Both Dream Seeker’s cloak and compass were now destroyed.
The compass fell from the sky and was smashed into pieces. Dream Seeker’s cloak was also torn and there were streams of tears everywhere.
Heavenly Blade stood where he was, waiting for Dream Seeker to slowly get up.
“I’m sorry for destroying your two magic treasures.”
“It’s no big deal. Anyway... After the match... it will be restored.”
Dream Seeker’s body was already full of wounds. The pain from his body made it difficult for him to even speak clearly.
“Are you still going to fight?”
“Y-yes… I’ll fight!”
Dream Seeker placed Traceless on the ground to support him as he slowly stood up.
Suddenly, Dream Seeker threw a crystal ball at Heavenly Blade.
Heavenly Blade extended his dagger to block the ball.
The crystal ball exploded. Instantly, Heavenly Blade’s hand that was holding the dagger was frozen and turned into ice.
The dagger smashed the ice into pieces, but his hand was frozen by the cold air. He could no longer move.
“Good move.”
“You can’t use your right hand, which means you can’t use your dagger.”
Indeed, his frozen hand could not be lifted. The dagger in his hand could not be taken out as well.
“I can’t. I still have my left hand though.”
Dream Seeker raised Traceless. Without a second word, he rushed towards Heavenly Blade and jumped.
His goal was to take advantage of this moment to give Heavenly Blade a fatal blow.
He saw Heavenly Blade raise his left hand and swing upward.
Three throwing knives came out of it.
They were aimed at Dream Seeker’s head and flew over.
Fortunately, Dream Seeker was quick and used Traceless to block the knives.
“You can throw with your left hand?”
“That’s right. I use a dagger in my right hand and throw knives with my left hand. You didn’t think that’d be possible, did you?”
Heavenly Blade said as he threw out a few more throwing knives.
Dream Seeker was not like Heavenly Blade, he could ont stand still and block the attacks.
He immediately turned around and avoided his original position, dodging most of the throwing knives.
He used Traceless to block the last one in a moment of desperation.
If he had been a second slower, he would have been hit too.
Previously, he had watched Heavenly Blade use his right hand but not his left. This gave him the idea that Heavenly Blade was used to only using his dominant hand.
However, he did not expect that he trained with both hands. One trained in close combat while the other trained in long-range.
This technique was also very high-end. He could use throwing knives in close combat. One could imagine the power of using both hands.
If it was not for the fact that Heavenly Blade had been only throwing three knives, under the situation where he could throw more, Dream Seeker would have lost long ago.
Now that Heavenly Blade’s hand was sealed, at least there was still hope.
“Hmph, I might not lose out on this though.”
Heavenly Blade once again threw several throwing knives.
Dream Seeker also threw a few bombs to block.
...
These few explosions blew up Heavenly Blade’s throwing knives.
The field was now filled with raging flames on one side and thick smoke on the other.
The audience in the audience seats were looking down on it in anticipation. Not to mention the audience, Heavenly Blade’s field of vision was also blocked by the thick smoke.
This was Dream Seeker’s usual method, using the thick smoke to deal his ultimate killing move.
Heavenly Blade had already learnt about this before.
“Huh, I shouldn’t let you have your way, right?”
Heavenly Blade spun on the spot. As he spun, he threw countless throwing knives.
They shot in all directions.
“-2,101!”
“-2,011!”
...
Dream Seeker, who had wanted to take the opportunity to get close, was hit by the throwing knives. He had no choice but to retreat and dodge.
“Got you.”
Heavenly Blade found the position of Dream Seeker and immediately threw a few more flying knives at him.
His reaction speed was extremely fast. Before Dream Seeker could recover from the flying knives, a few more flying knives immediately came at him. How could he block them in such a short span of time?
Although he tried his best to block with Traceless, he was still hit by two of them.
“-2,001!”
“-1,998!”
Without the rotation bonus, the damage was slightly lower, but it still hurt.
The chance that was originally created by Dream Seeker had been destroyed.
Now, the HP ratio between him and Heavenly Blade was roughly five to eight.
Dream Seeker was at a complete disadvantage.
If he did not come up with a good plan soon, it would be very difficult to deal with Heavenly Blade.
Heavenly Blade took out a potion from his pocket and consumed it.
He was probably the only one who took it so casually in such a battle.
The frostbite on his right hand gradually disappeared.
His right hand was able to move again.
“Kid! I’m going to give it my all now.”
Heavenly Blade took a step forward and broke through the fog like an arrow being released from a bow. In an instant, he arrived in front of Dream Seeker.
Dream Seeker, who had just removed the throwing knife from his body, did not expect Heavenly Blade to recover so quickly.
He was shocked and subconsciously threw a bomb to block Heavenly Blade’s oncoming pursuit.
Boom!
Heavenly Blade broke through the explosion and arrived in front of Dream Seeker.
The dagger was directly placed on Dream Seeker’s neck.
At this critical moment, Dream Seeker disappeared in an instant and reappeared ten meters away with Traceless stabbed into the ground.
At that moment, Dream Seeker was glad for Traceless’s skill, or else he would have been dead by now.
