Chapter 739 The Second Champion Charging towards the monster with weapons in hand, Shiro twisted her body and swung towards the head.Seeing her blades phased through his head, she wasn’t bothered as she kept this onslaught up.With her constant barrage, the monster wasn’t able to find a chance to retaliate at all.After keeping the onslaught up for a little longer, Shiro stopped and jumped back since she couldn’t keep it up forever.Plus, she had confirmed the first part of her theory. She just needed to check the second.Discovering an opening thanks to Shiro jumping back, the monster pressed forward and slashed towards her with his axes.Smirking slightly, Shiro waited till the final moment before summoning some earthen spikes to pierce towards the monster’s chest.While this was happening, she shifted her body and used the spear to block both axes.Since she had done it at the last moment, the monster wasn’t able to react quickly enough.*PUCHI!!!!!*GAH!Crying out in pain, the monster stumbled back as blood flowed out of his wounds and onto the earthen spikes."What?!"Seeing the monster being wounded, the sisters and Tenma stood up in shock."See? I believe she has figured it out." Tricia chuckled."Hou hou~ So that’s how it works. Do you want to keep attacking?" Shiro taunted with a smug grin.Gritting his teeth, the monster slowly melded into the ground as the surrounding area started to darken.Raising her eyebrow, Shiro only chuckled and rested her spear on her shoulders.

"Now that I know how you become invulnerable, do you really think I’ll be hit by you anymore?" Shiro called out asten axes appeared around her and slashed towards her.Despite not being able to see the monster, Shiro wasn’t worried since she had already marked him out and she could see him as clear as day.Twisting her body, she used her spear to parry the axes while earth spikes attacked the monster once more.Hearing his pained cry, Shiro knew that she had hit her target.Grinning slightly, Shiro pushed the axes away and dashed towards him.Seeing this, the monster quickly sunk back into the darkness as Shiro rested her spear on her shoulder again."Yo why are you running away?" Shiro asked with a smirk.Hearing no reply, Shiro could only shake her head and throw her spear towards the mark.*BANG!!!Seeing her spear phase through the monster’s body, Shiro raised her eyebrow."Do you not have the will to fight anymore? Some Champion of Nyx you are." Shiro laughed.Just as she said this, killing intent burst forth from the monster as Shiro curved her smile into a grin."There we go! If you’re a Champion, act like one!"Summoning her spear, she dashed towards the creature.Morphing the axes into swords and spears, a set of black plated armour appeared on his body as the creature swung his sword towards Shiro.Waiting till the last moment to block again, Shiro summoned the earthen spikes but they only phased through his body.At the same time, the sword phased through Shiro’s body as well.Seeing this, Tricia and Beril understood part of the rules behind the monster’s invulnerability.He can switch between two states of being. Physical and non physical. When he is in the second form, he cannot hurt other people nor can other people hurt it. The monster was just good at timing the switch so it looked like he was just invulnerable.However, with Shiro’s reaction speed, she was able to attack him just before he switched which resulted in two devastating attacks being landed on him.

Seeing his current state, they understood that his defences must be rather weak to compensate for this ability.Fending off the monster, Shiro understood that the monster was now more cautious about when he switched hence why she wanted to kill him in one go. The moment he switched, she was going to go for the head.Exchanging several missed attacks which phased through the body, Shiro could tell that he was beginning to feel annoyed.Thinking about it for a moment, Shiro decided to see if she was able to taunt him into attacking her.Backing off slightly, Shiro reached into her bag and started to eat a few rations."PFT!!" Seeing this, Quella couldn’t help but choke on her saliva.’What the hell are you doing? Are you trying to skip levels in Nyx’s tower or are you trying to have a picnic?’ Quella shouted out in her mind.Seeing her eat her rations while in a fight with him, the creature was completely enraged as he charged towards her with anger.He was one of Nyx’s mighty champions who could sweep the battlefields and leave behind a trail of blood. He wasn’t going to be humiliated by a girl who started to eat a ration in front of him.With the monster charging at him, Shiro grinned behind her ration since this was exactly what she had wanted.Side stepping his first attack, she wasn’t even going to counter as she let him swing at her continuously."Are you having some exercise before eating too?" Shiro asked while casually dodging his lethal attacks.If the monster had eyes, Shiro would have imagined that he would be glaring at her right now since she was eating a snack while taunting him.Gritting his teeth, the monster twisted his body and sent out pieces of his own shadow to surround her.Seeing this, Shiro was about to hop back when hands made from shadow grabbed her ankles and prevented her from running away.Raising her eyebrow, Shiro watched as the axes came closer and closer to hitting her.Taking a deep breath, she activated her spirit nature as a black dress wrapped around her body.Snapping her fingers, a pulse of cold energy exploded out as the axes and hands were frozen in an instant.Flickering in front of the monster, Shiro had a grin on her face as killing intent exploded out, dulling his movements for a moment.*PUCHI!!!

Stabbing her hand into his chest, she pulled out what seemed to be his heart along with a white illusionary image of him. Throwing it to the side, Shiro watched as the body stumbled for a second before falling back lifelessly."Well that’s that. Who’s next?" Shiro asked while dismissing her Spirit Nature.Even though she wanted to save it for the boss, the monster was going to be more annoying as time went on since he would have started to get used to her movements and she couldn’t let him do that.Therefore, she quickly finished him off while her spirit nature is activated.Massaging her shoulders, she was about to relax when heavy killing intent descended onto the arena.The sheer pressure that this brought even affected the spectators as they held their breaths in a mix of surprise and fear."Hou hou~ Finally someone with some fighting spirit." Shiro raised her eyebrow.Watching the portal open up, a young boy exited the portal which caused both Shiro and the spectators to pause for a moment.However, just as she paused, the boy disappeared."!!!" Entering a combat stance immediately, Shiro felt danger behind her and instantly turned around. Raising her spear, she barely parried the dagger that was about to pierce her face."Well aren’t you an aggressive person." Shiro forced a smile and swiped out at him with her spear.However, before her spear could reach him, the boy flickered into a clump of mist and disappeared."An assassin typ-" Before she could even finish her sentence, Shiro felt danger again and quickly dodged to the side.Watching the assassin narrowly miss her shoulder, Shiro understood that this one was going to keep up the pressure against her.Taking a deep breath, she focused her mind and summoned Nivlim since this was the most lightweight weapon she had. Against a dexterous assassin, this was the best choice since it has the highest chance to hit.Parrying his dagger, she tried to grab his wrist but the boy disappeared once more."Tch!" Clicking her tongue, Shiro slammed her hand down as a wave of rock spikes exploded out of the ground around her.Reducing the amount of space that the assassin could use, Shiro saw him reveal himself in the air as he wanted to attack but the spikes appeared in front of him before he could.Crouching down, she jumped towards him with her sword in hand.Twisting her body, she slashed towards him as he quickly used his dagger to block.Seeing this, Shiro grinned.As the two blades met, a layer of petrification started to spread towards the boy but he reacted quickly and let go of the dagger.Disappearing into mist once more, Shiro couldn’t help but shrug at the missed opportunity but she knew there were going to be more chances.
