Chapter 399 Evelyn Vs Nakagawa Hiina
Evelyn looked at Amazu and Anwar.
"I am sor-!" She wanted to apologize to them as her plan failed. And they were injured like this in the process.
However, before she could apologize, Amazu said, "We are sorry, Captain. We have lost one round, and this would affect our plan. We thought we could close the curtain after you won the third battle, but we can't because of us."
"No, this is my mis-!" She was interrupted once again. This time, it was by Anwar.
"Captain, you have already made a good plan. We lost because we are not good enough, so please win the next battle captain. Luckily, Florinda is in the last battle, and her opponent is the weakest of their team. So, it is on you, Florinda, as well as Captain." Anwar smiled.
They were then taken away to recover their injuries.
"..." Evelyn looked at them without saying anything. She knew they just wanted to cheer her up, but a part of her heart refused it because she knew she was in the wrong. She closed her eyes for a bit and swore that she would win the battle. The moment she opened her eyes, she looked a bit bloodthirsty.
It was at this time, Florinda suddenly crept up from behind and grabbed her developing b.r.e.a.s.ts.
"Wha-!" The moment she felt her hands, she was startled. "Flo- Florinda!"
"Haha… Sorry sorry. I thought I needed to loosen you up a bit after seeing your expression." She smiled. "Captain, you need to calm down a little bit. When you act unnaturally antsy like that, it is guaranteed to be passed down onto your teammates as well. Where it will also be picked up by the enemy."
"!!!" Evelyn's body shook a bit after hearing that.
"I am sure you know this already. This battle is the most decisive and the most brutal one. If they want to win, they would need to defeat you in this battle. It is also the same for us. For me to fight in the fifth battle, you need to win this battle."
Evelyn took a deep breath. She realized she was swayed by emotion after she heard her. "Thanks."
"Sure." Florinda nodded. She suddenly added while moving her finger like a creepy old man, "Still… if you want to seduce him, you need a bigger volume, you know…"
Evelyn was dumbfounded at first, but the moment she realized what she was talking about. Her face flushed red. "Wha… wha-what are you saying?"
Florinda only smirked as she watched her action. Evelyn immediately escaped before she tried to tease her again. "I need to go now."
Evelyn walked toward the arena, but just before she came up, she glanced at Alex. Alex only smiled at her to cheer. She nodded at him while turning her head to Nakagawa Hiina. Both of them had serious expressions.
Before the match started, they were exchanging a greeting. Surprisingly, their greeting was not like the previous two matches.
Nakagawa Hiina was the one who started all of it. "You are just his kept woman."
Because she got a bit used to it, she was just a bit angry being called like that. Unfortunately, Evelyn did not give the reaction Hiina wanted. Instead, she only smiled and said, "It is better for a woman that could not enter his eyes at all, no matter if it is your power or your beauty."
"You!" Nakagawa Hiina gritted her teeth as she took out a rank 4 sword. It was a blue sword that held extraordinary energy within it. "Hmph. You can't even afford a rank 4 sword… Maybe you should ask him for it... Of course, with your body."
Evelyn started frowning when she heard this. "This is why you could never enter his eyes. You could only rely on the sword."
She took out her usual rank 3 sword while looking down on Nakagawa Hiina's rank 4 sword.
"So, you think that a good quality sword is bad? You are just challenging the Forging Master, aren't you?"
Evelyn shook her head. "I never said that. Well, it seems you are also an idiot, so I don't want to bother myself to explain it to you."
"You!" Nakagawa Hiina clenched her sword as she released her Sword Domain. Her Sword Domain was a 15 meters domain, which was pretty powerful for an 8-Star Martial Grandmaster.
Evelyn only sighed. "This is why I said that."
Another Sword Domain also appeared. But this time, the sword domain was a 30 meter domain. It was twice the size of Nakagawa Hiina's domain.
"!!!" Everyone in the arena was shocked. They did not know how big Evelyn's Sword Domain was, but to think she had one this big… They were dumbfounded.
When Letizia saw this, she only closed her eyes and said, "As expected of Master."
It somehow became her instinct to say something like this even though it was unnecessary. Even Cecilia was dumbfounded to see her daughter become this way. She looked at Alex and sighed. By the look of it, it might be better to leave her daughter in his hand.
On the other hand, Nakagawa Hiina was overwhelmed when she knew Evelyn had a thirty meter domain. She knew Evelyn was strong, but she never expected she was this strong.
Evelyn looked at her and said, "Come!"
"Match Start!"
Evelyn took out five swords from her space ring and let them hover around her. She wanted to replicate what Alex did and became a mobile fortress with these swords.
Nakagawa Hiina raised her sword on top of her head. She knew how terrifying those swords were. She would need to keep her distance from her as she tried to knock down the sword one by one.
"Sword Breath!" Hiina swung her sword as a few waves flew toward Evelyn. The waves were like ocean waves, and it felt it would swallow Evelyn if she did not dodge it.
Sadly, Evelyn was not planning to dodge it or whatsoever. She just raised her sword before a big projection sword appeared above her head. She swung the sword and split the wave into two.
"Sun Beam!"
Evelyn tried to look down on Hiina to taunt her. For a prideful Nakagawa Hiina, that kind of thing would be able to rile her up.
"You!" She leaped toward Evelyn while swinging her sword. She was trying to blast one of her swords to the ground.
"Ten Thousandth Breaker!"
Unfortunately, Evelyn suddenly pulled her sword back and swung the sword on her hand. Because of that, Nakagawa Hiina was forced to strike the sword in Evelyn's hand.
It was at this time Nakagawa Hiina suddenly smiled. She was proud of her strength as this was the one that let her become a member of this team.
"I will let you know that my strength is extraordinary." Hiina grinned.
Facing that attack, Evelyn only snorted. "I know a man that was more powerful than you when he was only an 8-Star Martial Grandmaster."
Evelyn swung her sword with all of her might and knocked Hiina's sword back.
"!!!"
She did not stop there. In the last moment of her swing, there was a trace of light on her sword. And that light was…
"Pentagram Slash!"
It turned out Evelyn was using her Pentagram Slash in that swing. She was a daring one as she might get injured if she could not knock her back and made a full swing.
The five slashes flew toward Nakagawa Hiina's hands, feet, as well as her cheek. This was also another reason why Alex did not use something like this despite having confidence in his strength. Even if he could use Pentagram Slash at this moment, he would only be able to graze his opponent because of the range of Pentagram Slash.
Evelyn also knew that. She looked at those five slashes that flew past her and joined again a few meters behind Hiina. However, her purpose for this was not to injure Nakagawa Hiina. Instead, she wanted to use this attack to taunt her even more.
"Hmph. You are not my match. You better surrender now."
"You!" Nakagawa Hiina retreated a few steps back. She said, "I have gone through hellish training just for this tournament. I admit you are strong, but I am someone who climbed up through Rainbow Flower Sect just for this.
"I am only an 8-Star Martial Grandmaster, and my opponents were stronger than mine. However, I have made it this far by crushing strong people like you one after another!" Nakagawa Hiina struck forth her sword.
Evelyn blocked it with both hands as she got pushed back by that strike.
The people would think this would be the time for a counter-attack. But when Alex saw this, he shook his head while smiling. The Evelyn he knew was not someone that weak.
It looked like she was being pushed back by Nakagawa Hiina. But, in Alex's eyes, he could only see her taking on all the attacks from head-on.
The moment she got used to it, she started shifting her stance a bit and started changing the flow of the battle.
"Gh!" Nakagawa Hiina finally started to realize she was the one being pushed back. At first, she could make many offensive attacks. This time, there was no such thing as attacking as she could only barely defend Evelyn's attacks.
"How could this be…" She glared at Evelyn. "Why is my strength utterly ineffective? The same strength that has served me through all those battles for this tournament.
"Why am I unable to defeat a man who merely hid under the name of someone else like Alexander Sirius?"
Evelyn glared back while making a shallow wound on Hiina's stomach. "If you have faith in your own strength that you have obtained from that hellish training, then I have my pride as someone who was taught by Alexander Sirius. A man who was recognized by all Heavenly Sword Sect as the number one genius!"
"You… just what the hell are you?" Nakagawa Hiina retreated a few steps while checking the wound.
"Alexander Sirius's Disciple!" Evelyn said with a serious expression.
"..." Alex twitched his eyebrows. He was wondering why she was not embarassed to said that and added inwardly, 'That's not exactly you, is it?'
After all, Alex only had one disciple at the moment, which was Putri. In fact, he could not understand her at all. At first, she pretended to be his woman, and this time, she said she was his disciple, even though she was not either of them. She even said that with conviction, which made Alex feel weird.
"You!" Nakagawa Hiina clenched her sword as hard as possible because she did not want to accept the result. Evelyn had yet to use her five swords, and she was already on the brink of defeat. Although she did not want it, she knew she did not stand a chance in front of her. She felt very frustrated at the moment. "Ha!"
Nakagawa Hiina charged at her with all of her might. Evelyn also abandoned her five swords as she was planning to finish it in this one blow.
Both of them passed each other. The audiences were clueless as they wanted to know who won. But for stronger people like Xiang Bai, Alex, or even Cecilia. The result was already clear.
Hiina fell down to the ground as there was a huge sword wound on her body. Of course, Evelyn held back so she would not get an everlasting wound on her body. After all, she was also a woman, and she also did not want to have such a wound on her body.
"If I want to kill you back in Shamwar Forest, I could do it because your blade has yet to reach mine," Evelyn said as she stored back her sword to her space ring.
"Heavenly Sword Sect Wins!"
"Uoh!" The people were excited because they knew Heavenly Sword Sect only needed to win once more. Sadly, it was very different for the top brass.
With Nakagawa Hiina losing the third battle, the situation for Rainbow Flower Sect was not looking good. Alex and the people from Heavenly Sword Sect were overjoyed. On the other hand, the Rainbow Flower Sect knew they had already lost this battle. And they could not say they lost with a slight margin. After all, the result of the last two matches was apparent.
Mina let out a long sigh. After watching Evelyn's strength previously, she knew Hiina's chance in defeating her was practically nonexistent. Even with her rank 4 sword, it only increased her chance to ten percent. But the moment Evelyn showed her true prowess, the result was already present.
