Chapter 247 246- Next!
"...!"
Ishajreon couldn\'t stop panicking after realizing his top-tier skill wasn\'t responding to him. That was when he realized why Zach had a smug and confident look on his face.
\'Impossible! That\'s cheating! This guy is clearly cheating!\' Ishajreon thought to himself.
\'Now that I think about it, the NPCs were acting suspiciously around him. This game is created by gods, and the NPCs in this game can be considered humans. So if they are treating Zach as someone important to him, he has to be one of the gods!\'
Ishajreon had lost his mind, but his assumption was half-correct.
\'How is that a fair fight?! He is a cheater!\'
Ishajreon forgot how he tried to fool Zach into predicting wrong about his class, and how he tried to kill him using the top-tier skill.
Zach and Ishajreon had the intelligence on the same level, the only difference was in their mentality.
Ishajreon was ready to kill, but he wasn\'t ready to die.
Once Zach had taken control over the Mana Zone domain that was nothing but water, he forced and pulled all the water to the center.
It created a huge water bubble and Zach trapped Ishajreon inside it.
"Taste your own medicine, bitch!" Zach scoffed out loud.
Of course, getting trapped in the water wasn\'t something that could kill a player if it was only for a few seconds. But not only was Zach killing the Ishajreon trapped under the water bubble, but he was also increasing the pressure inside it.
Hence, the size of the water bubble was slowly getting smaller as the pressure increased. The pressure eventually started crushing Ishajreon\'s body.
Naturally, he opened his mouth to scream, and Zach got the opportunity he was waiting for. He started filling Ishajreon\'s body with the water and controlled it.
Sure, he could have used his nose, but that could have made Ishajreon aware of Zach\'s plan.
After fighting with Ishajreon, which didn\'t start, Zach had realized that Ishajreon was more of a brain guy. So Zach did what Ishajreon would want Zach to do. He fooled Ishajreon into thinking that he fooled Zach, while in truth, he was getting played by Zach all along.
Of course, Zach didn\'t realize it immediately, but After seeing Ishhajreon acting confident, Zach knew something was wrong. And it didn\'t take him much time to figure out what Ishajreon was aiming for.
Still, Zach didn\'t know what Ishajreon\'s top-tier skill, Mana Zone could do, and he had no choice but to wait.
Luckily for Zach, Ishajreon used a water element.
Ishajreon\'s health rapidly started decreasing as time passed.
The tension in the atmosphere around the ring was eerie. And no one could take their eyes off the battle.
Zach was dealing with a level 95 player without even doing anything as though it was a piece of cake.
\'What should I do with him? At this rate, he will die. But I am sure he was trying to kill me too.\'
Zach pondered for a while and thought, \'I can just kill him, to be honest. And since this is an official duel, I won\'t get the red name tag.\'
Zach stopped applying pressure to the water once Ishajreon\'s HP hit 69. Then, he launched the water bubble— with Ishajreon still inside it— at Elliott, who was in his flying carrier.
"I leave this to his luck. His HP is low, so he might die after hitting the carrier, or perhaps he would survive if he got lucky."
In either case, Zach had won the second duel too. It was a battle against top-tier skill versus top-tier skill, and Zach won.
The water bubble hit the carrier and Ishajreon\'s body dropped on Elliott\'s lap where two girls were sitting.
However, it rolled down from Elliott\'s lap and then fell from the carrier before hitting the ground with a splat.
\'Oh, he died…\'
Zach expected Elliott and the guild members to be shaken up by that, but much to his surprise, the third opponent— Jeremy, walked into the ring and invited Zach for a duel.
"..."
Even Zach felt pity for Ishajreon since no one cared even though he died fighting for Elliott\'s selfish reason.
SIGH!
Zach accepted the invitation of the duel and immediately dashed at Jeremy, only to punch him in the face as hard as he could.
Zach felt his fist breaking the skull, and he heard the sound of bones breaking as Jeremy\'s body was sent flying a few hundred meters away from the ring.
The duel ended before it could even begin.
"Next!" Zach called out to the next opponent.
Razeir stepped into the ring and invited Zach for the duel. However, he already had his weapon equipped in his hands, since he didn\'t want to meet the same fate as Jeremy.
Zach also equipped a weapon, and it was the cursed dagger.
Once the battle started, Zach dashed at Razeir and grazed him with the dagger.
Razeir scoffed after seeing Zach\'s attack only depleted 10 HP. He thought he had dodged Zach\'s attack and managed to survive, while Zach was simply playing around.
Razeir stood at his spot and prepared himself for Zach\'s attack.
\'I won\'t charge at him. I will let him charge at me, and wait for the perfect opportunity to dodge and attack him!\' Razeir decided.
Razeir waited and waited until he noticed his HP had been constantly decreasing. He realized that Zach wasn\'t going to attack him, ever again. And that he would die without even getting a chance to shine.
\'I will die at this rate! But if I kill him, this effect will stop, and I will survive!\'
Out of desperation, Razeir dashed at Zach, thinking he would be able to save himself. But his HP hit zero (0) and he died before he could even reach Zach as his body dropped to the ground.
"Next!" Zach yelled impatiently.
Now, the rest of the opponents were afraid for their turn.
None of them wanted to fight against Zach, but they had no other choice. If they didn\'t fight, Elliott would kick them out of the guild, and if they fought, they would die.
Smart ones made the smart choices, while the fools remained the same.
