As the saying goes, wanting one’s life when one is sick!
Since Wang Yu could not avoid the battle, he could only fight to his best abilities.
Before Esther managed to even stand up after stabilising herself, Wang Yu had already come to her and his huge fist landed on her right face.
-24441
The face should not be hit in battles, and in addition, Esther was a girl. Wang Yu’s punch was too much.
With the damage numbers floating, Esther’s head was spinning from the punch and pushed her right hand onto Wang Yu’s chest.
Wang Yu already foresaw it and defended himself by crossing his arms in front of his chest and dodged by jumping backwards. Esther used her sword to bring herself up from the ground with her hair swaying with the wind. The look of a strong warrior was obvious on her and Wang Yu looked at her with admiration.
The Twelve Knights of the Round Table of God—each of them—had superb skills, and ever since Esther made it into the Round Table, even the same levelled warriors had not made her lose out this much.
Not only could Wang Yu dodge Esther’s attack continuously, but he could also attack Esther spot-on without getting himself injured. This was also her first time dealing with such a difficult guy.
Wang Yu was a skillful player himself and could feel the aura from the strongest players. Looking at the class that Esther had, Wang Yu was 120 percent more focused than ever.
Wang Yu knew that Esther being a Knight of the Round, with a level of 100, had an ability that not many players could deal with. If it weren’t for Esther’s carelessness just now, both of his attacks would not even have made it and he did not dare to treat the situation lightly at all.
Esther stood calmly facing Wang Yu and staid while staring coldly at Wang Yu, “There was no one else that managed to make me lose out this much. I underestimated you just now, and I will give my very best to honour my respect to you!”
“… I can’t decide if I want your respect or not in this case.”
Wang Yu felt conflicted after hearing what Esther said though he understood the idea that putting in her best was a form of respect to her opponent. However, his opponent currently was a level-100, someone who was so much stronger than even the Twilight City Lord. Wang Yu could not feel pumped for the best effort from such an opponent…
Wang Yu had always been the one bullying others, and the swapping of roles this time was definitely karma.
Esther was a classy Knight and was lazy to talk about useless stuff with him. She drew her sword and slashed it at Wang Yu thrice. Three slashes flew to Wang Yu at an extremely fast speed.
Wang Yu expanded his Seven Star Steps, twisted his body, leaned back then leaned sideways and dodged the three slashes.
“He actually dodged them?”
Seeing Wang Yu’s successful dodge, Esther frowned and came right in front of Wang Yu instantly.
“Rising Dragon!”
Just when Wang Yu got back his senses, Esther started her next attack. She held her sword tightly at her sword handle and jumped upwards and lifted Wang Yu into the air with the sword.
“Combo slash!”
Right after that, Esther slashed a few times onto Wang Yu consecutively.
“Bang!”
However, Wang Yu exploded into several pieces like he was making fun of Esther.
“Clone?”
Esther was stunned and drew a circle of light with her sword.
“Half-moon slash!”
The sword rays covered Esther 360 degrees. However, just when Esther was preparing to finish up her move, Wang Yu appeared diagonally at her top.
At the same time, he landed and attacked the back of Esther’s head with [Eagle Stomp].
“Boom, boom, bang!”
After one [Thunder God’s Stomp] on top of two [Eagle Stomp], Esther kneeled onto the floor.
Seeing Esther kneel down on the floor, Wang Yu wanted to give her two more punches but Esther suddenly turned back and her left hand became a shadow that grabbed Wang Yu.
[Sentence]
While still holding onto Wang Yu with the shadow on her left, Esther turned over and stabbed her sword into Wang Yu with her right hand.
“Shua…”
Before Esther could reach Wang Yu, he flashed to behind her and hooked her legs with his then pushed her right shoulder.
Esther missed her attack, lost her balance and fell forward when pushed by Wang Yu.
“Quick sword!”
As expected from a BOSS, she teleported to five hundred distance away and turned back to attack Wang Yu with her sword.
“Landslide Earthquake Slash!”
Wang Yu was the most familiar with this move as this was the signature move for Warriors. This move was strong as the release time was really long, but it was easy for Wang Yu to decipher.
Esther’s choice of using this move against Wang Yu was no different from digging her own grave.
Seeing Esther come forth, Wang Yu did not avoid and confronted it head-on. He grabbed Esther’s waist dragged her down from mid-air.
For a level 50 player to go against a level 100 BOSS, Wang Yu had very little control time even for grappling skills like Knee Shot. It was very hard for him to finish his move due to the long lead time required.
Moreover, the second part to [Knee Shot], [Flying Knee], had a longer stun time. Using this move in front of a BOSS like Esther meant that she could finish him instantly.
Wang Yu had a lot of experience in battle and he knew this. Before the control effect was over, he threw Esther out with [Fierce Tiger Strike] and used [Shadow Chain Kick].
-299999
Esther was knocked into the air.
Due to the fact that the [Shadow Chain Kick] had always killed its target, so Wang Yu did not know that airborne effect could result from this move.
Before Esther could reach the ground, Wang Yu gathered his Qi at his diaphragm and rubbed his palms together and pushed a [Fire Dragon] to Esther.
[Fire Dragon Break] this was the next best move Wang Yu had after [Shadow Chain Kick] and [The Rivers And The Seas].
Wang Yu’s Fire Dragon Roared and flew to Esther in an instant.
[Cyclotron Slash]!
Right at the moment when Esther was going to get engulfed by the Dragon, Esther forcefully gave up control and became like “Ultimate Hot Wheels” and slashed the Dragon into several pieces.
“Psh, super BOSS moves are indeed strong…”
Seeing his moves not being able to withstand a single blow, Wang Yu could not help but commend Esther. The difference between their attribute and level was so huge that even good techniques were hard to make up for.
Esther still kept her prideful face, but she smiled and said, “I am very happy to be able to battle with you, you have a very interesting way of fighting and I learnt a lot. If I could learn some battling tips from you, I believe that I could be at the peak of my job even without the Soul of the Gods.”
<System notification: You activated hidden plot “Pointers 1 2”, Do you accept?>
Esther already made it quite clear that if Wang Yu would guide her growth, the Soul of the Gods would not be of any use to her anymore and would offer it as a gift to Wang Yu.
Though Wang Yu might not be the wittiest person at times, he was definitely a smart person and clicked on “accept” right away.
