328 Lisa Vs Misha: The Winner

[ “Shattering Flower Style: Dahlia Burst” ]

Misha yelled, plunging her sword into the ground with all her might.

There was a moment of stillness as the energy built up beneath the earth, and then suddenly, a massive burst of energy erupted from the ground in the shape of a Dahlia flower. The petals rained down on Lisa.

Lisa, who was far away, was surprised by Misha’s attack. This was Misha’s skill attack and Lisa had never seen her use it before.

Misha had used her long-ranged attack in order to counter Lisa’s Violent Flash. If Lisa tried to dodge her attack by teleporting, she would have to do that near Misha’s current position. If Lisa did that, Misha would easily strike her with the sword.

Lisa could also see what Misha was trying to do.

With her new long ranged attack, Misha tried to make Lisa use the Violent Flash which would result in her defeat.

[ “Soteria Blessing: Goddess protection” ]

Lisa opted for blocking rather than dodging. Having her option of using Violent Flash sealed, she could only use her barrier to block the attack.

.....

-BANG! -BANG! -CRACK! -CRACK! -SHATTER!

However, Lisa’s shield was unable to stop Misha’s attack. The attack was too much for the shield to block entirely.

Lisa was stunned by the power of Misha’s attack. She had not expected that Misha, who was strong in close combat, would have such a powerful long-range attack. One must remember that Lisa’s barrier is something that multiple mages and archers had failed to break.

That same barrier was broken easily by one of Misha’s attacks.

At that moment, Lisa was made to choose an option that would be risky considering that her opponent was Misha. However, left with no choice, she decided to do it anyway.

[ “Violent Flash” ]

Before the attack hit her, Lisa teleported to another place. Misha was ready to strike wherever Lisa spawned.

[ “Bolting Torpedo” ]

However, she did not consider that Lisa would teleport behind her and try to attack her.

When Lisa attacked her, Misha immediately stopped using Dahlia Burst and drew her sword to defend herself.

-CLANK!

Fortunately for Misha, she was able to react in time and block Lisa’s sneak attack.

Now, Lisa’s plan has failed. It was her turn to suffer. Why this idea was such a bad idea was because while she could sneak attack, if she failed, she would be in the range of Misha’s attack.

However, she was left with no choice but to gamble on this decision. She would be forced to be teleported near Misha anyways, so she thought that maybe she could end this battle with her sneak attack.

She failed, and now she was in Misha’s attacking range.

[ “Shattering Flower Style: Rose Blossom” ]

Misha quickly counters, giving Lisa no time to use her skill.

-SLASH!

Lisa had tried to dodge but had failed, resulting in getting a serious cut on her shoulder. She could no longer feel her left hand and blood was flowing profusely. However, she still had no time to heal her injuries as she was still in Misha’s attack range.

[ Violet Flash]

Lisa quickly teleports before Misha lands another attack. Lisa once again created a distance between herself and Misha. i????n????????α????. C????????

[ “Hygieia Blessing: Compassionate Light” ]

Lisa immediately used her healing skill. Despite using her healing skills, not all of her injuries would be healed. While she had stopped bleeding, her left hand could not exert much strength. She could fully heal her injury but Misha was not going to give her the time to do so.

Misha got closer when Lisa was busy healing herself. While Lisa took only a few seconds to heal her arm, it was enough for Misha to close the distance.

[ “Shattering Flower Style: Withered Petal” ]

[ “Soteria Blessing: Goddess protection” ]

Lisa immediately conjured her barrier. However, due to the sudden need for the shield, its strength was not at its full potential. Which resulted in the shield easily being broken. Misha was ready to swing her sword again.

[ “Athena Blessing: Reinforce Strength” ]

Lisa applied this skill to herself. This was actually a support skill that she used on others, but she needed to do it for herself this time.

Actually, she didn’t want to do this because she was thinking about exhausting Misha’s mana and winning the battle. By using strengthening skills on herself, she was burning more mana than Misha.

Even with her large mana reserve, she was bound to exhaust faster than Misha at this rate. However, she had no choice but to use this if she wanted to compete with Misha.

[ “Bolting Torpedo” ]

Lisa caught Misha’s attack with her palm. With the power of her Bolting Torpedo and strengthened body, she was able to block the attack.

Misha continued to strike at Lisa, giving her no chance to retaliate or escape. If she continues like this she knew that Lisa would not last for very long. Lisa was deploying two to three skills together which would burn a hole in her mana reserve.

Lisa was also aware of this fact. She was doing everything possible in order to block Misha’s attack. She would be eliminated sooner or later.

Taking a deep breath, she decided to gamble for the final time. Her gambles had all failed, however, she was left with no choice. It was either she would win or lose with this next attack.

[ “Lightning Strike Apocalypse” ]

Lisa used all her mana to summon her ultimate skill. She even ignored Misha’s attack which resulted in her getting a big cut on her abdomen. Moreover, she was also in the range of this attack. This meant Lisa was planning to get hit by her skill while also attacking Misha.

With the attack having a large AOE, it was impossible for Misha to dodge even with her attack. Your speed is useless when you are bombarding the entire area.

Misha also knew that it was impossible for her to dodge the attack. She could only challenge the attack with her own attack. She began channeling her mana into the sword.

[ “Shattering Flower Style: Dahlia Burst” ]

-RUMBLE! -RUMBLE! -RUMBLE! -BOOM!

The thunderous attack hit the area where Lisa and Misha were. Misha tried to stop the attack with her own attack, however, Lisa’s attack was much more powerful and could not be stopped.

They were both struck by the Lightning Strike Apocalypse. The ring had once again been destroyed.

The dust from the attacks blocked the visions of many. They could not see anything and could only wait for the dust to settle.

The arena was filled with the roar of the crowd as they watched Lisa and Misha’s intense battle. It was truly a treat for everyone as they watched one incredible fight after another.

They did not expect much after the incredible fight between Hiro and Misha. Luckily, they were mistaken and they got another incredible match which was different from Hiro and Zion’s fight.

They really wanted to know who would come out on top as the winner between the two. They were all anxiously waiting for the result.

As the dust began to clear, the crowd could see two figures standing in the midst of the destruction. It was Lisa and Misha, both panting heavily as they tried to regain their composure.

Misha sustained several injuries. Her body was badly damaged, and her hair was singed. Lisa was in no better condition, her body had been hit by thunder multiple times, and blood was dripping down her face.

The crowd expected another epic fight between the two girls when suddenly Lisa collapsed. It was certain that Lisa was unconscious as she didn’t stand up even after the referee began his countdown.

“3…2…1…0. Ladies and gentlemen, after an incredible match between two talented fighters, we have a winner. The winner of this match is Misha Kanon!”

The crowd erupted in cheers as Misha was declared the winner.

Misha fell to her knees, exhausted and barely conscious. But the sense of victory was overwhelming, and she smiled through the pain.

She had won the semi-finals, and now she was one step closer to becoming champion.
