Dark Magus Returns - C.647 Moving With The Plan

It was clear from everyone that had been watching the fight so far that Hannah was on the back foot. They didn't blame her for struggling with the many different techniques that were being used.

If anything, they were surprised how she had lasted so long. The one saving grace in the match so far was that she hadn't received any serious injuries.

She had a few cuts on her clothing and a mark on the side of her face, but that was all, and now with a new determined type of look on her face, she was ready.

'Come on,' Liam thought, holding swords in both of his hands. 'I'll take you out in my tornado of skills once again. I'm not strong like the others, so this is my way of winning!'

Liam was ready for anything that was to come at him, and he saw Hannah running forward once again; she placed her hand over the sword, and it started to glow with power.

Charging in, she then started to randomly swing her blade in the air; it was a skill or technique, it was unclear, but she wasn't even close.

Right as she got close, she then hopped from side to side.

"Three Moonlight Hops!" On the third jump, her Qi exploded until she had hit Liam and sent him skidding across the floor.

Liam was able to block with both of his swords at the right time, but he was still affected by the impact. Right after, he could see visual Qi, a tornado as Hannah spun her body.

She then struck a heavy blow from the side again. This time Liam was unable to take the full brunt despite blocking the hit and fell to the floor.

He kicked himself quickly, getting up though, until he saw Hannah spinning her single blade.

"Full Moon Strike!" her sword moved in a full circle motion and had caught the edge of Liam's weapons and had forced them to leave his hands.

He tried to retract them with his magic, but the Full Moon Strike hit the weapons away again, and right after, she went to use another technique.

"Piercing Light!" Hannah said as the sword was thrust towards Liam's neck. The sword continued forward until a clang noise was heard.

It wasn't from Liam's swords as they weren't in his hands; instead, it was from the middle-stage warrior that was standing on the side.

They had interfered with the fight, and had blocked the strike, meaning a winner had been decided.

"YEAHHH!"

The crowd erupted into cheers, as for the first time, someone from the Light Faction had actually won one of the single events.

Not only that, but they remembered Hannah's words. This was an incredibly skillful person from the Dark Faction that knew all of their techniques.

Yet Hannah wasn't just able to stop them all; she was also able to best the person in the end. It was most likely this was the White Dragon and the strongest in the Dark Faction.

Seeing this gave them a boost in confidence, and the cheers continued again and again.

"You might be wondering how you lost," Hannah said as she placed her sword away and looked at Liam on the ground.

"I figured, you are so talented that you can copy anything you can see. At the same time, you have the skills to even access what are the best skills to use in certain situations."

"But you can only do that with things that you have seen. Our Dawnblade Clan has been around for a very long time, and I know a number of skills."

"Even skills that are considered low level, I know how to use and optimize them to the best level. Instead of assessing the situation and letting you have time to progress everything, I used them non-stop, confident in my skills being better than yours and beating you."

There was a large sour taste in Liam's mouth. After all of the training, after all of the perks of the system he had, he still had ended up losing, while the others had bested him.

However, Safa, watching, thought he had done extremely well; it was just the opponent he went up against this time, was cool-headed and extremely skilled.

There wouldn't be any in the world that would be able to deal with the situation as she had done.

Regardless, it was the end of the result, which meant Liam and Hannah would have to go their separate ways and head back to their viewing stations.

Anna, having watched everything above, had her own thoughts about the whole thing. She had confirmed that the young boy was using the system.

'The boy lost in the end, but he wasn't killed. Which means if the two of them were ever to come face to face again, the boy wouldn't lose the fight again.'

'For that is the nature of the system. It's unfortunate that the girl does not know that, and that she will never be able to best the boy again.'

Having seen enough from the outside view, Anna decided it was best for her to head back inside, to where Raze was.

She had some things she wanted to ask him, answers that she needed to know now.

The announcer had stated that there would be a short break again until the next event. The arena needed to be repaired among other things, but before that, they also had made an announcement for the next set of single matches.

Simyon Vs Mantis

When Simyon saw his own name and who he was up against, his stomach started to hurt a bit from the last time the two had met each other.

It was quite obvious he would remember him, and what if a person mentioned that he had been in the Demonic Faction, what trouble would that occur?

He just had to hope that Mantis wouldn't have mentioned such a thing, considering he hadn't mentioned anything so far.

Safa Vs Hannah.

The fight after that was between two talented individuals who had outshined themselves on the last stage. Some thought it would come down to who had the better strategy against the other.

Then finally, there was only one more bout to announce. Due to there being seven people in this event, one of the fights had to be a three-way.

Mada Vs Ricktor Vs Jake.

There were some turns of the heads about this matchup because for one there were two individuals from the Dark Faction.

However, some thought this might be the only way to make such a fight fair because that was just how much of a threat the one known as the Demon would be.

Out in the crowd itself in one of the standing areas, Amir had come out, after leaving the Dark Faction area, and had looked at the screen with the display in names.

"It makes me wonder with this happening, what those kids will do," Amir said as if he was speaking to himself.

Soon though, a hooded man came over and stood by his side.

"I have no idea what he is thinking," the hooded man said. "But the fact that you are here means you want me to make my move soon, correct?"
