Because the viewers witnessed Leron overwhelm Valyr by bombarding the latter with a flurry of assaults made out of darkish power, fear was written throughout an amazing portion of the viewers’s faces as Valyr’s pained cries resounded all through the coliseum.
Unsurprisingly, the common clients of Valyr’s smithy, in addition to Arcenne and Wells, had much more ugly expressions on their faces, feeling every hit that landed on Valyr’s physique as the concern on their faces turned increasingly apparent.
To them, the present duel had remodeled into nothing greater than a one-sided beating, with the one hit Valyr was in a position to land on Leron being the finger he lower off. Alternatively, Valyr progressively turned extra bloodied due to Leron’s relentless assaults, a few of them shallow, a few of them digging deeper into Valyr’s pores and skin.
“I’ve one thing to ask you. One thing that is been bothering me since earlier.” Deciding to lastly finish all of it with a killing blow, Leron pushed down on the spear Valyr had prolonged in the direction of him as he requested him a query. “Whose prey is whose once more?”
At this second, a few of the common clients from the Crimson Forge closed their eyes, not eager to see the proprietor of the smithy they’ve grown to love to die a cruel and brutal loss of life. As for Arcenne and Wells, their eyes had been large open as they watched the scene earlier than them unfold with bated breaths, hoping that there was a manner for Valyr to show issues round.
And switch issues round he did.
Bang!
Underneath the witness of hundreds of individuals inside the Farraway Coliseum, the spear Valyr was holding, which was being pushed down by Leron all this time, disappeared for less than a quick second, with Leron oblivious to what the person earlier than him had simply finished along with his spear.
Then once more, he would not stay clueless for lengthy.
Unexpectedly, Leron began to fall to his proper aspect, his eyes frantically wanting round his environment in a slight panic to search out out what had simply occurred. Coincidentally, simply as he had discovered what was occurring, Valyr’s voice resounded all through the coliseum in response to his earlier query.
“Whose prey is whose? As if that had even modified in any respect.”
“You’ve got at all times been my prey, Leron.”
…
Thud.
Silence. Silence consumed the whole lot of the coliseum for that temporary second as everybody was left puzzled at how simply Valyr had turned the tables round. Of their minds, all of them thought that his loss of life was imminent below the bombardment of assaults Leron despatched his manner. However as an alternative…
“Woooo!!!” Cheers swiftly erupted all through the coliseum as Valyr remained standing the place he was, wanting down at his opponent that had simply fallen to the bottom.
Alternatively, Leron set free a protracted wail of ache earlier than gritting his enamel, enduring the ache that crippled his total physique as he checked out Valyr with a gaze that would solely be mentioned to carry the epitome of fury.
In any case, his proper leg had disappeared with out him realizing.
Bellowing out in anger, Leron summoned the entire darkish power that he had used all through the duel and congregated it in the direction of the place his proper leg ought to have been. Inside seconds, this darkish power took on the crude form of a proper leg, permitting Leron to face up as soon as extra.
‘I suppose surpassing 100 factors in DEX does have its perks.’ Within the meantime, as he gave Leron time to compose himself and get up, Valyr thought in regards to the transfer he had simply used to make Leron’s proper leg disappear from existence, inwardly letting out a light-weight chuckle quickly after.
The transfer that he used was referred to as [Tyrannous Bite], the third transfer that he unlocked from [Serpent Spear Combat Style].

Such was the case with Leron’s proper leg.
Taking a fast take a look at what number of seconds nonetheless remained earlier than [Tyrannous Bite] was off cooldown, Valyr appeared again at Leron and requested, “So, wanna danger your life to search out out who amongst us is the true prey?”
“Die!” Consumed by his rage, Leron lunged ahead in the direction of Valyr as he shot darkish power out of the soles of his ft, propelling him ahead at nice speeds. Then, with the hole between them now non-existent, Leron swung his daggers inward, the darkish power infused into them far larger than earlier than as he aimed to kill Valyr with the power.
“[Elusive Dash]!”
Whoosh!
Nonetheless, on account of the truth that he had misplaced his proper leg, Leron was unable to showcase the superior agility he had in its fullest, permitting Valyr to dodge the assault with a swift [Elusive Dash], showing behind Leron simply because the latter was searching for his whereabouts.
“[Tyrannous Bite]!” Then, simply as Leron had sensed Valyr’s presence and rotated, Valyr prolonged his spear out as soon as extra, which swiftly made contact with Leron’s left leg.
Bang!
As soon as extra, Leron was despatched falling to his aspect as he cried out in ache. Nonetheless, in contrast to earlier than, the place he allowed his physique to fall fully to the bottom, he swiftly summoned extra darkish power in the direction of the place his left leg initially was, forming one other crude leg out of the power as soon as extra as he stabilized himself.
“I’m wondering… how a lot of that power do you continue to have to exchange components of your physique?” Although Valyr was coated from head to toe in his personal blood, with components of his armor being soaked in it as properly, he knew that he had dealt much more grievous harm to Leron, taunting the latter along with his phrases.
“[Shadow Immolation]!’ In response to the taunt, an amazing wave of darkish power burst out of Leron’s physique earlier than enveloping it, inflicting the aura he was radiating all this time to achieve a better degree of depth.
To these within the viewers, it appeared as if Leron had introduced out his trump card, giving off the sensation that he was not going to carry again anymore to finish the duel as soon as and for all.
However to Valyr, who nonetheless had a plethora of abilities he had not proven to the viewers but, in addition to the truth that the harm he accrued was floor degree at most, Leron activating his ability appeared extra like a last-ditch effort to him.
As if he did not need the viewers to assume that he died doing nothing.
“Since you are going all out, I ought to reply in variety.” Dodging the assaults Leron despatched out at him in wanton, Valyr went forward and activated the entire offensive buffing abilities he had in his arsenal.
“[Offense Aura]!”
“[Robust Arms]!”
“[Crimson Blaze]!”
Bang!
Catching Leron unaware with a crimson fireball to the face, Valyr swiftly closed the hole between them earlier than activating two extra abilities in succession.
“[Descending Fang]!”
“[Venomous Strike]!”
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Earlier than Leron may even react to the 2 assaults Valyr despatched, each of his arms had been swiftly lower off by every ability, exhibiting the viewers a much more grotesque sight than what Valyr had finished by way of [Tyrannous Bite].
Surprisingly, the viewers was in an uproar at this second, cheering on for Valyr to land much more devastating blows on his opponent.
Alternatively, with all of his limbs now successfully lower off from his physique, it was solely did Valyr’s earlier phrases to him echoed in his thoughts, realizing that the person’s phrases wasn’t a baseless accusation.
He had the means to take action.
With this realization sinking in, Leron stood frozen in place as Valyr stepped nearer, a light-weight smirk adorning his face. “Solely now did you notice, huh?
“Too unhealthy. There is not any prize for figuring it out.”
“I surre–!” Not wanting to offer Valyr the satisfaction of getting the final snigger, Leron’s voice resounded all through the coliseum, exhibiting his intentions to give up. Sadly, earlier than he may even end his phrases…
“[Tyrannous Bite]!”
Bang!
At that very immediate, Leron’s head disappeared below the witness of the viewers as the entire darkish power overlaying his physique progressively disappeared.
