Pride Online

Chapter 163: Unexpected Technique Part I

A loud explosion came resoundingly at the same time the flame blazed up from the young man’s chest, showing that he got attacked by the magic merging that could pierce through any kind of defenses...

It was the same as his ultimate skill, Fist destruction, but many times stronger. The speed, experience, and even attack points, this woman was better than him in every aspect.

“Aw, you still managed to dodge me, even though you were attacked in such a close range like that. Really impressive.”

The sweet voice of Lucy spoke with a delightful smile.

Right now, that owner of blonde hair felt quite happy that the first opponent she met after she had to bear sleeping inside Lala, was one of those ‘tough bones’ the way she wanted.

“Lucy, you’re in the magic warrior class as well?”

The young man asked with the body that right now only had a pair of pants, his gloves, and the straps with the 7 curses swords.

“I thought you were a sword man, or something similar to Lala.”

“We only share the same body, but we’re in different classes.”

Lucy answered with a sweet smile. Her amber eyes looked down at the spot where Wisana should be lying dead, but there was only a black tank top that he was wearing a moment ago heaping there.

“I’m the one who wants to ask,” Lucy said. “You were just a newbie the last time I saw you. And you were only in the first class, ...but how can you use an ability of assassins like that?”

She asked, looking at him from the corner of her eyes as her brain thought about the Cicada Shed skill of the assassin, the skill that traded one of the player’s wearing equipment with 100% of attack evasion.

“Well, ...it just goes like that naturally. There’s no particular reason.”

Wisana smiled wryly as he scratched his cheek. And after hearing that, Lucy slipped out a laugh right away.

“I’m glad to hear that.” She said, curtsying down again delicately. “...Something doesn’t need reasons. And therefore, you’re perfect to be my first opponent in these many years. I’m, ...I’m really happy!”

“What?! We were talking just now, why did your mood suddenly change again, sis?!”

The top-naked one yelled when he saw the other rushing straight toward him at an extremely fast speed. His eyes almost saw her looking like an illusion, even. Maybe that was because her speed was extraordinary, and she could literally be a real demon.

“It’s not a joke anymore.” He said loudly. “...Since the first time I’ve logged in to this game, why do I have to always encounter enemies with higher levels than mine like this?!”

He cursed frustratedly for a few seconds, then he turned back because Lucy was missing from his eyes like she used invisible magic. And just like how Wisana expected, ...she really showed up behind his back!

WHUP!!

The sound of wind blowing came past his face just inches away.

“...Aw! You’ve learned from your mistakes. This is excellent.”

“Who would have stood still to take the same attack over and over again?!”

The young man shouted resoundingly before he dragged his foot back in himself and kicked it out to the face of the other. And of course, Lucy dodged Wisana’s attack easily.

Without hesitation, the blonde girl leaned down and approached him, placing her hand on his chest to use the ultimate skill to blow him off to death. However, Wisana had learned and read some of Lucy’s movements now. So, he grabbed her arm tightly with all his strength, before kicking the bend of her knee, aiming to make her lose balance.

“...That’s not bad!”

“...!”

Wisana was speechless when Lucy held up her foot to block his attack easily. Not only that, but the blonde girl also used Wisana’s kick as the force to send her up and do a flip in the air cleverly.

His amber eyes widened in extreme shock!

Could someone swear that the girl was a game NPC? ...How could she use martial arts so skillfully?!

While she was floating in the air, Lucy smashed her heel down on Wisana’s head harshly. The one who was about to get attacked by that deadly move pressed his lips together before he quickly grabbed and stopped her ankle in time.

At that second, his eyes narrowed down, jaws clenched tightly!

“...Let’s see what you’re going to do about this!”

He said as his other hand grabbed Lucy’s thigh, before casting her down from mid-air with a judo move. That was the second Lucy’s smile was completely gone. ...This man was about to throw her onto the ground while she was floating in the air like this.

This guy did not hesitate at all.

This move was a deadly move that was meant for killing!

The plumped lips pressed together as her kind-looking eyes had completely changed. The blonde girl curled herself up in the air and kicked her other foot back, aiming to crash Wisana’s head before he could cast her against the ground. Of course, Wisana could read her actions, so he had to let go of his hands around her legs, before retreating to defend himself first. And that was the chance for Lucy to flip and land on her feet smoothly instead of crashing on the ground.

It did not take long for the blonde-haired girl to rush at Wisana again with rapid attacks. However, the young man had some experience in this kind of fighting. So, he could defend and attack back as well.

“What an intense match.”

Another cheeky one named Tunwa said, scratching his cheek. And the others quietly agreed with him. Because the battle between Wisana and Lucy started to get increasingly violent as if neither of them knew how to withhold now.

“I have to admit that Wisana’s excellent,” Sander spoke up. “...This is the first time I see someone putting up with Lucy this long.”

“This is also the first time I see someone fighting him this thrillingly, apart from his mom.”

Tunwa said with a wry smile. And the master of magic warrior class just nodded in acknowledgment.

“But it’d be bad if they keep this up longer,” he said tiredly. “Anyway, Lucy’s not giving her all in the fight, yet. And when she does, I’m not so sure if Wisana would be able to resist it.”

BOOM!!

Right after his words, Wisana’s tall body bounced off and crashed into the dungeon’s wall, leaving him lying with his back aching on the ground.

“...There it is. It’s starting now.”

Sander’s words got every eye on Lucy. Right now, the girl was putting her boxing guard up. A green sparkling light was shining from her back, while her two hands were also shining, but with a red light that looked like blazing flames!

“Lucy is in a fighter class,” Sander said. “...And her main strategy is to blend the magic of five elements into her body, similar to the magic warrior class. ...However, her real ability isn’t martial arts only.”

“...What’s her other ability, then?” Waree asked.

“In the Pride world, they nicknamed her, Lightspeed demon.”

“...Lightspeed demon?”

Everyone repeated at the same time, and each one of their faces was expressing different feelings about this, especially Maysa, who seemed to be frowning her eyebrows tight as she looked at Wisana worriedly.

“I don’t need to explain more about that, right?” Sander shrugged, unbothered.

Hearing that, the others had difficulty gulping down their saliva, while the same thought was popping up in their head, saying...

Na is screwed big time!

CLANG!

Then there was a sound of another weapon hitting the ground. Waree turned to look at it, before she saw that it was Shin who summoned his Longinus spear out, grabbing it tightly in his hand.

“Why did you bring the weapon out, Shin? You want to join them?” She asked.

“Just in case.” He replied monotonously.

“Just in case?” Waree tilted her head to the side curiously.

“...In case an unexpected event occurs. If he’s game over now, that will ruin our first plan as well, since he will be sent to the hospital after he dies. So, I don’t think it will be fun to lose our main strength in Ouroboros hunting.”

Hearing that, Waree frowned her eyebrows tightly, glancing at Lucy’s slender figure, before letting out a long sigh.

“...I’ll cast some spells, too, then, just in case.”

“Yeah.”

BOOM!!
