God of Tricksters

"Come. I will show you the power of the United Kingdom Former Team Leader."

"…" Laust and Phyrill exchanged looks as if they understood that this person was strong.

Noticing their battle, Alea turned around and shouted. "Change of plan. Both of you will defeat him. I will be fine."

Hearing her answer, Phyrill and Laust nodded as they leaped to the side, proceeding to beat this person.

Alea, on the other hand, had her own problem.

The clicking sounds kept echoing in the arena as Alea parried Scarlet and Zara's attacks.

However, Alea had difficulty in fending off their attacks, especially with Zara's extraordinary swordsmanship.

As one would expect from the holder of Morgana Le Fay's blessing, Zara knew where to strike, utilizing the little opening Alea showed.

It completely disrupted Alea's rhythm, making her unable to contain Scarlet after Zara hit her.

To regain her momentum, a green light began to cover her two feet. "Second Labour, Swift Hind."

Noticing the glow, Zara and Scarlet quickly regrouped and maintained their position, preventing Alea from coming to help Laust and Phyrill.

"Tch." Alea clicked her tongue and waved her sword upward and didn't forget to create a small spark on the ground. "Third Labour, Devouring Hydra."

The nine hydra's heads came out and flew in all directions. Five of them tried to stop Zara and Scarlet, but the other four flew toward Clark.

Not wanting anyone to disturb Clark, Zara and Scarlet had prepared their own solution to stop this attack.

Zara raised her hand as a small black-colored hole appeared on the ground. Five giant tentacles emerged from the hole and caught all the five incoming heads as if there was a giant octopus inside the hole.

After that, both Zara and Scarlet went in different directions, waving their swords at the same time.

"Chivalry Slash."

"Magic Sword."

Both of them struck the heads in succession, ultimately destroying all the heads.

"Annoying." Alea gritted her teeth as she wanted to help Phyrill and Laust to win. After all, as long as Clark was down, the two would be able to help her. She took a deep breath and released it with a roar. "First Labour, Great Lion Roar."

"Chaos Disruption." Zara used the same attack that destroyed Alea's Flaming Ge-Sword.

Although the high-pitched sound shook the arena, the Sound Wave didn't pass her defense.

Scarlet went around and struck her. "Enchanting Strike."

"Herculean Strike." Alea countered it with her powerful swing.

The clash ended in an instant as Alea blasted her away. "Phoenix Talon."

A fire phoenix emerged from her hand and flew straight to Scarlet, trying to burn her alive.

Unfortunately for her, a guillotine appeared out of thin air.

"Execution." Zara was obviously the one who summoned it. The moment the phoenix was about to pass it, the blade fell down and chopped the phoenix's head.

"Grand Burst." Alea used another skill to deal any damage to Scarlet that had yet to fall to the ground.

Despite not reaching the ground, Scarlet had enough time to fix her posture mid-air. She waved her sword. "Magic Sword."

The movement created a current in the air before turning into a powerful gale that swept the explosions.

"Dark Alchemy." Zara used that chance to summon another black hole near Alea, using a total of ten tentacles to strangle her to death.

"Inch Slash." Alea didn't hesitate and waved her sword horizontally.

Her Inch Slash flew straight to the tentacles and cut them like a tree.

They all fell down and Alea finally saw a chance to escape this situation.

"Splash Explosion."

"Chaos Disruption."

Both of them created a small ball next to each other as their energy collided.

Obviously, Alea's Splash Explosion exploded, creating a huge amount of smoke and kicking up the dust.

"Second Labour, Swift Hind." She used her fast speed to charge through the fire.

Zara furrowed her eyebrows, but the smoke suddenly changed shape as Alea emerged from the smoke with her clothes partially burned.

"Not good." Zara never thought Alea would be this daring and had no time to react.

However, when everything went according to her plan, Alea raised her sword, finding Scarlet striking her from above. "Kh."

Scarlet turned out to have enough time to follow her.

Alea took a deep breath and blew her away.

Scarlet rolled on the ground and struggled to get up, but Alea also couldn't move because Zara locked her sword, stopping her movement.

"Thank you, Scarlet." Zara smiled.

Alea started to get annoyed.

…

Meanwhile, like Alea, Clark was also suppressed by the two.

"Is this your power? Hahahaha!" Phyrill had been taunting Clark to mess up his rhythm, but the latter managed to maintain his calm this whole time.

Even so, he knew that Clark's condition had been deteriorating, so if they continued this fight for another few minutes, Clark would fall eventually.

"Laust, just hit this guy as you like. Don't let him have the chance to breathe."

Laust remained silent, but he certainly proved it with his action. As soon as he heard it, he looped around, approaching Clark from his blind spot.

"Raging Bull Strike."

Clark knew that Laust planned for a sneak attack, so he quickly turned around and grasped his sword, but Laust used his full strength in this strike.

He launched Clark into the air like that of a baseball player while saying, "Your turn."

Phyrill nodded and jumped on top of Clark, plunging his swords to his body.

As if expecting this attack, Clark raised both hands and blocked the attack.

This was supposed to end, but Phyrill released another attack before they started falling down.

"Discharge."

"!!!" Clark widened his eyes and saw that the lightning flowed out of his hand and moved to the swords before electrocuting him.

"Gah!" Clark felt his body was torn apart by that lightning and was about to give up. However, his desire to win allowed him to endure this kind of attack. He even said, "Lightning again. I hate it!"

Phyrill turned around and saw Clark's knee hitting him on the head, blowing him to the ground.

Bam.

Phyrill tried to get up as soon as possible while Laust wanted to attack him.

On the contrary, Clark released a blue ball that turned into a giant ice spike with a clear area perfectly in the middle when it hit the ground. "Ice Isolation."

As soon as he landed safely, he leaped back, trying to regain his breath.

"Zara!" Clark shouted as he panted, struggling to fight these two.

Zara quickly turned around and saw Clark's condition. She understood that Clark couldn't last any longer. However, he soon bit his lips and stared at her as if begging her for a favor.
