Gacha Sovereign
chapter-398

Alex realized something, and he had yet to teach it to Evelyn. He looked at Evelyn's confident face and sighed.

In the arena, they were exchanging greetings casually before the match started.

Amazu was a skinny man. He used a rapier as a weapon. Even though his body looked like it didn't pack much power, his dexterity had replaced the need for strength. He was specialized in control as he could even change the direction of his sword in the middle of swinging easily.

"Ladies, nice to meet you."

Beside him, Anwar also took out his sword as he gave a simple greeting. He bowed a little, letting his shoulder-length blue hair to shift a bit and covered his eyes.

"Hope we have a great match."

"Pleasure to meet you." Janessa smiled at them while politely greeted back. She then took out her blue spear before turning her head to Gabriella.

As for Gabriella… She just snorted at them and looked away. She took out her spear and pointed it at Anwar and Amazu.

"Match start!"

In the instant the match started, Amazu immediately jumped forward while thrusting his rapier. His target was Janessa.

"!!!" Janessa parried his attack with her sword. She said, "Even though your weapon is a gentleman's weapon, it seems you are not a gentleman, aren't you?"

"This is a war, there is no kindness or whatsoever. The only thing that matters is winning." Amazu smiled.

Gabriella jumped to save Janessa, but Anwar appeared in front of her while swinging his sword.

"!!!" Janessa used her spear to stop her momentum.

"I am sorry, lady. I need your time for a little bit." Anwar said. He glanced at Amazu and Janessa.

In an instant, their fight suddenly turned into a brawl. Amazu tried to stab her but was always getting blocked by Janessa's sword. However, together with his speed and dexterity, he kept pressuring Janessa.

Amazu was changing his target all the time from her left leg to her right leg, before moving to her body. It was an unpredictable but powerful assault. He kept making small wounds on her body from time to time because she failed to block those continuous attacks.

It was their plan. Evelyn's plan was for Amazu to exhaust Janessa while Anwar kept Gabriella at bay. The moment she reached that point, Anwar would blow Gabriella away and started making his way toward Janessa. That way, they could fight Janessa in a 2v1 fight and defeat her. After that, they would beat Gabriella.

It was a different plan from a well-thought plan from before. Since the opponent would be wary of their strategy because of the previous battle. Evelyn wanted to take advantage of that and used an old school plan. In other words, this was a 3v2 fight with Evelyn instead of a 2v2 fight.

Sadly, Evelyn had yet to reach one of the important lessons from Alex. She might be able to make a good strategy or play a mind game. But she had yet to master the manipulation of...

*Stab*

The conclusion came so suddenly. Amazu, who was fighting Janessa, finally managed to make a deep wound on her by stabbing her abdomen.

"!!!" Not only the people who were fighting but also the entire arena were shocked by this. They thought Rainbow Flower Sect would lose again because of this. Even Nakagawa Hiina looked at this while clenching her fist.

Everyone thought like that except Gabriella and Janessa.

It was very painful when she was stabbed deeply with Amazu's rapier. Still, despite that, she did not back down as she even made his rapier thrust it even further. Half of Amazu's rapier had pierced through her body, but suddenly instead of screaming, she was smiling.

It was at this time Amazu knew she had been waiting for this. He wanted to pull his rapier out of her body, but she gripped his wrist. Because of his lack of strength, he could not pull his wrist from her.

Janessa looked at him while smiling. Even though the blood was still seeping from her mouth, that smile was still bringing bad news to Amazu. She raised her left hand before it was covered by a big flame.

If Amazu got hit by this attack, he would be heavily injured considering his figure. Anwar immediately knew they were f*cked up if Amazu went down just like this.

He raised his sword and swung with all of his might toward Gabriella's Spear.

"Seven Stars Cut."

It was a point-blank range Seven Stars Cut.

"!!!" For Gabriella, it was a bit hard to take this head-on. She channeled her spear intent but to no avail. She was also a bit surprised by the timing so she could not completely block it and let her spear be destroyed. The remaining force was enough to push her back.

Anwar then took that chance to leap toward Janessa as he was trying to save Amagu from her clutch.

They thought Anwar would be able to save his teammate, but unknown to him, it was already in Janessa's plan. She smiled while Gabriella put a serious expression as she slowly approached Anwar from behind. She recalled the scene just before the competition started.

A few minutes ago,

They were walking toward the arena, but before anyone would be able to see them. Janessa stopped and looked at Gabriella.

"Gabriella…"

"?!" Gabriella stopped on her track and looked at her in confusion.

"We are in a pinch right now. And considering how mighty their previous plan, I feel we would be in trouble in this battle too."

"Yes. We might lose in this battle, too, but I will not go down without fighting even if I lose. Rainbow Flower Sect had fostered me from when I was a child, so this is the time to repay the sect back." Gabriella said with a serious expression.

"Is that so…" Janessa looked at her without saying anything.

"What? Do you want to say something?" Gabriella was a bit unsure with Janesssa's expression. She was like someone who wanted to do something reckless but lack of resolve.

A few seconds later, Janessa took a deep breath as she made a serious expression. "I am the same. This is the time I pay back my sect. That's why I have a plan that could make us win this battle. I guarantee it."

"A plan that could guarantee our win?"

"Yes. If we fight normally, we will lose this battle. That's why we need to fight recklessly in this fight." Janessa smiled as she had gathered enough resolve. She said, "I am sure the rapier guy would try to fight me in this battle.

"If that is the case, then I will let him fight me and wounds for all I care. If, at one moment, I have a chance to stop his movement, I will make a diversion and direct Anwar's focus on me. I will surely send him back to you, and you will need to take Anwar down at that time."

"But how can you do that?"

"I will use my body to stop him. Trust me." Janessa said.

Gabriella looked at her expression. She finally realized what she wanted to do. Janessa was planning to sacrifice herself for the sake of this battle. She opened her mouth wide because she could not believe what she was planning to do.

Gabriella looked at Janessa, who started walking toward the arena again. She took a deep breath and swore they would win this.

…

After seeing Janessa would inflict huge damage against Amazu, Anwar came with his sword at the fastest speed.

Janessa only smiled when she noticed this.

Noticing her smile, Amazu felt a chill all over his body. He realized her target this whole time was not him, but Anwar. He shouted, "No, Don't come here, Anwar!"

Unfortunately, he was too late. Anwar already reached her range. She turned her head and shifted her hand toward Anwar.

"Sin Fire Technique, Blast!"

Anwar was taken aback by this sudden change. He immediately tried to protect himself with his sword, but it was too late. Her technique exploded right in front of him.

"Boom!"

He was blown away toward Gabriella. At this time, Gabriella thrust her spear toward his abdomen to inflict the same wound as Janessa, but bigger. She wanted Anwar to have the same pain as her.

"Not good!" Anwar wanted to shift his body but to no avail.

*Stab*

"Gah!" Anwar did not know what happened, but before he knew it, he already had a bit wound on her abdomen. Luckily, he managed to shift his body a bit, so the spear did not hit any vital. But with this big wound, he might not be able to fight again.

He tried to grasp Gabriella to stop her but failed. After inflicting that wound to him, Gabriella already made his way toward Amazu.

She thrust her spear once again. Amazu could not do anything other than raising his hand to block the spear.

"Nghh…!" It pierced his right hand and stopped just right in front of his head.

Gabriella did not stop there. After piercing her spear on his hand, she threw a powerful kick on his head. Because of that powerful force, Janessa' lost her grip on his wrist and let him crash on the arena wall.

"Bam!"

When they saw this, they believed the battle had finished. After all, if they wanted, Gabriella could kill Amazu and Anwar. They knew they could not do it since if they did that, it was the same as challenging Heavenly Sword Sect, and their sect would not back them up with this.

If Alex's wrath suddenly came toward them, then it would be a game over for their Rainbow Flower Sect. If he was cruel enough, he might even order Letizia to kill the entire Rainbow Flower Sect. That was the reason why they could only stop on this as they would be killed by Rainbow Flower Sect first.

"Rainbow Flower Sect Win!"

"Uoh!" The cheering filled the arena once again. This battle had too much bloodshed but also great respect for Janessa, who could sacrifice herself for the team.

Janessa looked at Gabriella and smiled. Gabriella also smiled, but she suddenly saw Janessa fell to the ground.

"!!!" She immediately caught her before she reached the ground.

"We won," Janessa said weakly.

"Yes. We also need to tend your wound first." Gabriella said.

The other teammates also came to the arena to help Janessa. The same applied for Heavenly Sword Sect. They immediately tended Amazu's and Anwar's wounds.

"What?!" Evelyn was dumbfounded when she saw this. She thought they would win the moment they had heavily injured Janessa. But to think Janessa used that to bait them, it was beyond her expectation.

When Alex saw this, he sighed. He already expected something like this to happen the moment he saw the eyes on Rainbow Flower Sect disciples. They had prepared themselves for the worst.

He knew that he had yet to give her the last lesson. He already told her how to control opponents' minds as well as some strategies. But he had yet to teach her about emotion. The powerful force that could make one fight with 120 percent strength.

He always considered his enemies' emotion in his plan. He would always control them in a state of fear, where he could kill them easily. However, if he did it excessively, there would be a chance for them to fight with all their might and summoned that 120 percent strength. If he fought thousands of soldiers in that state, he would suffer a huge loss.

That was why he always made them in fear and tried to scatter them. He gave a room for escape, so they did not think about fighting back. That way, even with his few spirits, he would be able to defeat thousands of soldiers. He would need to teach her about that after this.
