MMORPG : Rebirth Of The Strongest Guild Master-Novel

Chapter 295 - One V One Battle ( Group A Finals )

Rudra gave no more room to UMAGA , everyone else maybe afraid of UMAGA's power but Rudra was not. He knew he was stronger at this stage and that engaging in close range fight would benefit him.

Countering UMAGA's odd footwork , Rudra kept on pressing closer and closer to UMAGA , giving him no space to maneuver. With every sword strike that UMAGA countered with his paneka , he was forced to take a step back , while constantly having to dodge the second sword strike.

Rudra's incredible agility meant that it was very hard to create distance , and as such Rudra was absolutely dominating the sword exchange , as every once in a while , a jab would cut the Samoan here and there.

A series of cuts and constant pressure forced UMAGA to the wall of the arena . He had no more space to run.

UMAGA's eyes widened in shock , he was starting to get scared of the opponent , this was the first time someone controlled the tempo of his fight and dominated him soo thoroughly.

With no more space to dodge , Rudra's next strike would have impaled him. The sense of danger and the psychological trauma of being overpowered caused the Samoan to snap , as he used his first trump card in the match , eternal rage!

A burst of strength coursed through his body , as he pushed Rudra back. Rudra staggered and took a few steps back , he was not shocked at all , he was expecting this to happen , now that UMAGA had used one of his hole cards , Rudra just had to wether the next 3 minutes where his stats were inferior to UMAGA , and then he would have this match in the bag. A smirk formed on his face , as his enemy played right into his hands.

Just as Rudra thought , UMAGA came charging at him , as every second counted for him. With a 70% stat boost , it was him dominating Rudra now.

Every strike parried caused Rudra to take a step back , the Samoan came out swinging violently , and Rudra could feel the impact in his arms. Rudra was glad at this point to be weilding the Elven sword , a lesser sword would have been broken under the power UMAGA was wielding.

With the roles almost reversed , Rudra was the one defending now , but he did not recieve additional damage like UMAGA , as UMAGA was not a dual sword wielder. He could only push Rudra back , but it was useless unless he could produce damage .

The crowd went absolutely ballistic for the performance of these two champions , clamour and shouts filled the arena!

-------------

Derek Ray : what a rollercoaster of a match , it is Shakuni on the backfoot now after pressing UMAGA all the way to the wall , just when we thought it would be difficult for UMAGA , he came out swinging.

Lee Dixon : well there is nothing more dangerous than hunting a cornered animal Derek , UMAGA lashes out with vengance , Rudra is being pushed back , but it's not quite the same as him pushing UMAGA , as there is no damage taken.

Derek Ray : This is a clash worthy of Titans , if one pushes the other pushes back , uptill now I think they are quite equally matched Lee , with Shakuni having a slimmer of an advantage.

Lee Dixon : it's not a considerable one however Derek , and the tables may turn at any point .

( UMAGA uses a taikwondo style kick to Rudra whose defense is blown open )

Derek Ray : His guard is blown open Lee , can UMAGA make it count?

Lee Dixon : That stance ... That move , are we going to see it? Yes sir ..... BARBARIAN'S SLAUGHTER!

-------

UMAGA used one of the strongest moves in his arsenal Barbarians slaughter , it was a ten move combo with a chance of hitting 7 critical hits , it was the move he had used to finsih off all his opponents uptill this point.

However the very first strike did not connect .... In a move he never anticipated , Rudra dropped Excalibur , and retractable shield opened on his left arm .

BAM! , The epic rated shield took the blow of the first move , and Rudra stood his ground. Immediately pushing back with all his might. UMAGA had to take a step back due to the recoil and his combo was effectively ruined.

UMAGA was visibly frustrated , only a minute was left on his skill , and he had yet to dish out any damage. Rudra stood before him with a near full HP bar!

He became desperate and unleashed moves after moves , however Rudra had dropped his sword , changed his stance to northpaw and started his best defense.

Inspite of UMAGA's strength filled flashy attempts , all Rudra did was defend , defend and defend more , not a single blow landing damage. This continued untill UMAGA finally ran out of time and his strength waned.

Feeling the decrease in strength of the blows , Rudra's eyes glistened with rage. It was his turn now. Not only was the brute UMAGA out of strength , but he was also visibly a bit out of breath , the three minutes of continuous high intensity barrage had taken a toll on his stamina .

Hence he had trouble fighting against the explosive Rudra who fought like there was no tommorow.

A series of major damage appeared on UMAGA , who was not able to maneuver like he did as his defense became sloppy. At a rate visible to the naked eye , Rudra turned the momentum of the battle , as UMAGA's HP kept dropping. From the once light green to yellow to finally dark orange color.

Rudra knew he had this in the bag , the moment that UMAGA used his eternal rage trump card without his critical damage boost skill . He knew that he had no chance of winning. It may have looked like an evenly matched battle uptill now , however it was far from the reality. Rudra was the dominant force in this fight right of the gates , and he was only waiting to remove the fangs of the tiger before pouncing on him.

Within 2 short minutes of UMAGA's burst of strength ending , he was whittled down to 10% HP and he unleashed his last trump card , in a desperate last struggle.
