Chapter 873: Hectar, a tough opponent Chapter 873: Hectar, a tough opponent From MC’s Perspective: A few minutes later, We reached the arena building.
When we walked inside the building.
The staff are surprised by the presence of Lord Lowell McClain.
“I’m heading to the special box.
Give your best don’t worry about other things,” Lowell gave the final piece of advice before going towards the Special Box.
I nodded at him before going towards the warriors’ room.
The staff showed a hint of fear upon seeing me.
I know the reason for their expression.
I shook my head before continuing walking.
When I arrived at the room.
I noticed the number of warriors reduced to 20.
We are getting into the final stages of the competition.
Today the top 10 will be selected.
I wonder who will be my opponent today. On the other hand, Lowell McCalin entered the special room.
Gasp!
Sound of exclamation was heard everywhere.
Everyone was surprised to see Lord Lowell’s appearance.
They didn’t expect to see him here.
Lowell nodded at everyone before sitting down on his seat.
The next moment, a fat middle aged man walked into the room.
He is none other than the arena manager.
The fat manager’s expression was serious but his expression worsened upon seeing Lowell.
“Lord Lowell, when did you come?” he asked.
He hurriedly went to his side and sat beside him. Lowell amused by seeing his frightened expression.
Thanks to the arena manager, he was able to learn about Dale Mount’s injury status.
“I have just spared some time to come here,” Lowell replied calmly. Hearing that, the arena manager showed a helpless smile.
“Are you okay?” Lowell asked.
The arena manager replied,”I was scared yesterday.
But thanks to your presence here right now.
I’m feeling good.” Lowell let out a small chuckle.
Follow new episodes on the "N0vel1st.c0m".
He knows what the arena manager is thinking.
But nothing will happen to the arena manager and his staff.
On the other hand, I kept observing the reactions of people around me.
If anyone is against me, it’s hard for them to keep their expressions under control.
As the time passed, no one showed any abnormal reactions.
Everyone communicates with each other in a friendly manner. After confirming everyone was alright.
I shifted my gaze towards the duel arena.
Shortly afterwards, The referee came to the duel platform.
Without giving any lecture.
He showed the first matchup for today.
Time passed, One after another match ups have been completed within a few hours.
The Senior Warriors are tough and experienced warriors.
They didn’t waste any time on dragging the duel.
A few hours later, My turn came up.
My name was shown on the big screen.
Seeing that I left the room and started walking towards the duel platform. After entering the platform, I stood at one corner.
Opposite to me, a slender looking middle aged man appeared.
The barrier started to cover up the duel platform.
The participant also observed me.
Seeing that I activated the perceptual ability.
The next moment, my perception covered the whole platform.
When the barrier completely covered the platform.
The referee gave the signal . Boom!
The slender looking middle aged man dashed towards the opponent.
His name is Hectar.
He is known for his speed.
The Weapon he uses was the short sword.
After seeing his face, many senior warriors paid attention.
Some of them have done missions together with Hector.
For them it’s an interesting duel match.
On the duel platform, I pulled out the Black Sword from my storage ring and became ready to engage him. In the blink of an eye, our body got closer.
Hector’s speed was faster than the average warrior.
He is not using his movement technique at all.
Thankfully, I have the perception power.
I can see the short sword’s moves.
When Hector directed his sword at my chest.
I swiftly used the black sword to block it.
Clang!
A metallic noise sounded.
Hector’s face was full of surprise.
He thought he was not underestimating his opponent.
But he was still surprised by Zack’s strength and perception.
Swoosh!
He retreated backwards before using the elemental technique.
Swoosh!
A burning red flame covered the short sword’s blade.
The flame made a buzzing scorching noise.
Anyone could tell that coming in contact with that burning blade will melt one’s skin and flesh.
On the other hand, I did the same with the black sword.
Instead of using the lightning technique, I simply used the lightning power to cover the blade. Thunder!
The purple lightning made a crackling sound.
Swoosh!
The next moment, we both burst out at great speed to clash against each other.
In the blink of an eye, we crossed swords with each other.
Clang!
Clang!
Clang!
A metallic sound continues to reverberate throughout the area.
Outside, The audiences are watching the duel with excited eyes.
Some are cheering out loud for Zack Lockdwood.
Others are quite neutral audiences.
A very few are supporting Zack Lockwood.
They are mostly young and inexperienced warriors.
Among them, some have recently broken through.
They are impressed by Zack Lockdwood’s performance. His duels are giving them confidence.
They have someone as their goal to chase.
Special Box: Lowell McClain is enjoying the duel as well.
He thinks it’s good that Zack’s opponent is muscle headed.
Rather Hector appears to be someone who uses their brain for tactics.
In addition, Hector has an advantage in natural speed.
Lowell believes that Zack Lockwood will gain good experience from this duel.
Zack’s previous opponents were strong in either elemental or skilled in techniques.
Rarely anyone made Zack feel pressured by using their tactics.
So he is looking forward to the duel.
The arena manager’s mood was better than before.
He feels relaxed by watching the ongoing duel.
Seeing, Zack’s opponent was interesting as well.
He couldn’t help but turn towards Lowell McClain.
“Lord Lowell, what do you think about this duel?” He asked.
His voice was not low.
His words were heard by other staff as well.  Hearing that staff perked up their ears as well.
They want to know the opinion of Lord Lowell McClain.
