Chapter 479 The Duel between Assasins
Two figures could be seen in the battle ring facing each other. On one side was a figure with a skull mask, with the rest of his body, including his head, covered in a dark robe.
Before him was another figure facing him, his body covered in cloaks, standing in a dual-dagger-wielding stance. Ready to launch an attack at any moment.
Onlookers were looking at their faces, excited about what they would witness. It was a battle between the two best assassins.
While in the individual format, one of them easily dominated the other, and they had high hopes about this round being competitive.
It was because they believed that Sahil was more experienced than his opponent and had fought many battles, which would help him face a stronger opponent.
Gopal, with a smile on his face, asked them both to be ready. Rishi held air, and black-colored swords appeared on both hands when covered in a layer of ice.
He also changed his stance; he was standing with both swords on his side. He looked relaxed, not worried at all about the battle.
Some thought he was getting overconfident and would regret it, while others had no opinion.
"Start," said Gopal.
As if electricity had passed through his body, Rishi changed into a completely different person. He used 'Shadow Steps' and approached the opponent.
Two chains went faster than him and hit his opponent. His 'Shadow Chains' counted as a spell, due to which the Magic Movement Rune inside his Mana Heart activated, giving him a 100% movement speed buff.
Sahil used his dash skills and dodged the chains while launching multiple quick slashes toward his opponent.
His razor-sharp daggers, covered in a layer of green aura, cut through the air and slashed toward the vitals of his opponent.
Rishi efficiently used the defensive movement of Talwar; he had learned and defended them using the 'parry' skill.
His sword blurred, creating a purple '∞' symbol before him, which changed as he moved his two talwars around his body, defending all the strikes.
The ice layer around them broke apart, but a new layer appeared. A crystallized purple layer appeared on their edges the next moment, showing his mastery.
Sahil wanted to continue, but he found out the chains were coming back toward him from the back. Rishi lamented his barrage of attacks at the same time.
He activated his 'Mana Veins' and jumped at the opposition like a hungry lion jumping toward its prey.
His swords danced through the air with him; two more chains appeared and approached the opponent with their sharp teeth covered in purple fire.
Sahil was forced to use his dah skill; his body flickered while doing so, and he appeared behind Rishi and slashed his daggers, aiming at his vitals.
Rishi turned and defended the attack. 'Whoosh'
It was then that Sahil disappeared. A gust appeared from the side, and he felt a chill through his spine. He then also used 'Ice Enchancement' and defended.
This barrage of attacks continued, and his opponent was hit from different sides in an invisible form.
However, to everyone's surprise, Rishi could defend them all. It was due to his killing intent and sixth sense.
He could now track his opponent; he was waiting for an opportunity. He finally found the opportunity.
Shahil was near the chains; he thought Rishi could not track his location.
Four chains shattered, shining purple. Rihsi changed them to advance chains, which made them faster and stronger. When they moved like vipers and bound him the next moment, Sahil appeared helpless.
Onlookers were surprised; this battle was fast-paced. They never thought Sahil would be caught so easily.
Rishi wasted no time and pointed his sword at Sahil. Two chakras appeared from the thin air covered in the ice layer and a purple aura.
They whistled through the air and struck the helpless Sahil; however, something unexpected happened the next moment. The body dissipated into a cloud of smoke.
This surprised even Rihsi; he realized for the first time what kind of headstrong Assasins were. They were very cunning and slippery.
The next moment, he saw four figures attacking him from four sides; even his senses could not differentiate between them.
He felt like all of them were real. In this little time, they were already close to him. He wasted no time and summoned his zone; four marks appeared above the opponents.
Countless chains approached them, as if endless serpents were approaching them. The next moment, they were all bound before being crushed to ashes.
Rishi felt a chill on his neck. He raised his sword and defended while also covering his body in a layer of ice.
A shocked expression could be seen on the face of Sail; he couldn't believe he was not even able to scratch his opponent.
Rishi threw both swords at Sahil, making him bend his body backward to dodge them. The chains behind him started approaching him, turning into a giant hand midway.
Sahil wanted to dodge, but when he felt he was unable to move, his shadow moved and turned into a shadow figure that held him in place.
The right hand punched him, throwing his body toward Rishi. He appeared before Rishi, who had his right hand pulled back with his fist clenched.
A layer of ice and shadow energy appeared around his body, and veins became visible around his hand.
'Pow'
The punch landed on his chest and threw his body back with twice the speed it came, like a tennis ball.
Mid-air, the body of Sahil turned into black smoke. He appeared a little far from Rishi. He looked at him as if he were a monster.
He fell to his knees the next moment and vomited a mouth full of blood. His leather armor was broken into pieces.
Sahil was sweating buckets, as he was feeling a jolt of pain all over his chest. His multiple rib cage bones have broken, and more damage would have been done if he had not used his last skill to reduce the damage by seventy percent.
"Is he really an assassin?" I asked the mage.
"Who knows? His skillset is quite weird. It is nothing like other assassins," said the archer.
"He may be a battle mage, but man, that chain skill is broken," commented the swordsman.
"Ha ha!" laughed Gopal. "He will be our X factor in the upcoming competition; they would never guess who the real danger is."
