Chapter 82 One Move!
'This guy is so pretentious.'
Ursula and Emily thought in unison while looking at Luis with squinted eyes. His Performer talent made it easier for Luis to make other people believe in him. Still, Ursula and Emily's female instinct told them something wasn't quite right.
But, even though they had doubts in their hearts, they didn't say anything out loud because they had no proof, nor does it have anything to do with them.
So they quietly watched Thomas and Luis' interaction while focusing on recovering their mana.
Thomas didn't think much about it and easily believed him. Looking at Luis sympathetically, he said. "It must be a hassle."
Luis shook his head and said, "Nah, it's fine. Now that we are getting along, I find her rather cute."
Thomas nodded and didn't intend to continue talking regarding this topic. Since he couldn't find much valuable information now. He can only try it later.
His eyes shifted to the magic gun in Luis' hands as he said with slight mockery.
"Are you still playing around with guns?"
Luis acted as if he didn't see the contempt in Thomas' eyes and admitted, "Well, yeah, it's pretty convenient."
"So what if it's convenient? How long can you continue using it?" Thomas shook his head while looking at Luis with contempt. He was very dismissive about Luis' choice of weapon.
Luis showed a handsome smile on his face and said, "It doesn't matter if I use a gun or not. It's not like Prince Thomas has any chance of winning against me."
His tone was rather casual and polite. But when it reached Thomas' ears it sounded like mockery. He was stunned for a moment then a few seconds later his face turned red in anger.
"ARE YOU MOCKING ME?!!"
Luis was still looking at him calmly and said with a plain expression, "I am just stating facts."
His tone was unhurried and confident without any doubt, as if he was just stating the obvious.
This sudden change of atmosphere surprised not only Ursula and Emily, but even the viewers in the stadium.
Just a moment ago, those two were talking like old friends and now it's completely different.
But the audience didn't care about any of this. What they wanted was just an intense blood-boiling battle and looking at the angry Thomas, they believed that they might just witness one.
"Very good, Luis Suarez. I don't know what your intention is in provoking me. But if that's your purpose, then you have succeeded." Thomas said while gritting his teeth. Then, without hesitation, he rotated his spear and rushed in Luis's direction.
***
At the stadium.
'Although your aim is good, do you think this kind of attack can do anything against me?'
With his S-grade talent in Spearmanship. Thomas manoeuvred his spear with precise control and techniques, deflecting the mana bullets that were aimed at his vitals.
'Heh, is this it?' Thomas scoffed at Luis in his mind, while closing the distance between them.
His plan was pretty simple. As long as he gets close to Luis. He can defeat him in one fell swoop. After all, with his speed, he was certain that Luis wouldn't be his opponent.
But Luis' next move surprised him.
He saw Luis calmly put away his Magic Gun inside his mana bracelet. Then yawned slightly.
'What the...?!'
Unfortunately for Thomas, he had no time to be surprised. Because after that, what he saw was just after images. Luis' speed was so fast that he couldn't even catch the proper movements.
Before Thomas could react, not even a moment had passed and Luis was already standing half a meter away from him, holding something golden and shiny above his palm. His two gray eyes were looking at him without any emotion. As if he was dealing with just an insignificant matter.
"Thunder Javelin!"
Luis uttered these two words calmly and threw the Thunder Javilin with a wave of his hand.
*Boom!*
*Zzt!*
Thomas felt a huge impact on his chest, and then his entire body went numb, as if paralyzed and he couldn't feel anything. He did hear some loud crashing and explosion. But then his vision turned black.
When Thunder Javelin struck Thomas' chest, it sent his body flying together with the attack crashing on several trees and then landing 50 meters away from them, forming a huge crater on the ground along with some destroyed trees.
*Crash!*
*Kaboom!*
Thomas' body didn't even get the chance to have a disappearing effect as it was already turned to smithereens or rather dust after the electrocution from the leftover thunder.
...
Luis looked at his kill count and saw that it had increased by one, then sighed.
"I had told you that you are not a match against me."
"Why don't you believe it?"
*Sigh*
