Kicking the petrified dagger into the air, s.h.i.+ro caught it with her spare hand before throwing it behind her.

*CLANG!!

Parrying the blade, the a.s.sa.s.sin was knocked out of stealth as s.h.i.+ro flickered in front of him with her sword ready.

"Boo." s.h.i.+ro grinned and twisted her body.

*BANG!!!

Slas.h.i.+ng against his armour, s.h.i.+ro sent his body cras.h.i.+ng into the wall of the barrier.

Forcing himself up, the a.s.sa.s.sin slammed his hand into the ground as tens of clones appeared around s.h.i.+ro.

Unfortunately for him, her mark stays on his main body so she was able to find where he was immediately.

Summoning her spear, s.h.i.+ro twirled it in her hands for a moment before throwing it towards the main body.

"!!!" Widening his eyes, the a.s.sa.s.sin ducked down and barely managed to avoid s.h.i.+ro's spear.

However, just as he ducked down, an axe entered his vision.

Gritting his teeth, he decided to sacrifice his left arm and tried to back off.

But s.h.i.+ro didn't back off after taking his left arm. Instead, she pressed on with more attacks as she held her sword in her left hand and her axe in her right.

Whenever he tried to dodge her sword or axe, the other would follow up.

Naturally, s.h.i.+ro also summoned her spear and lunged at him occasionally to keep him on the defensive.

a.n.a.lysing s.h.i.+ro's fighting style right now, Tricia understood that people like the a.s.sa.s.sin will struggle a lot with s.h.i.+ro since her senses and skills allow her to render their advantages null. To fight s.h.i.+ro, you need to be someone that can take a hard beating.

Small tricks like what the previous champion had pulled was not going to work against s.h.i.+ro.

Looking at the current state of the fight, Tricia understood that the fight was going to end soon.

With the fight decided, she glanced towards Tenma and her other sisters instead.

While her sisters seemed overjoyed that s.h.i.+ro was completing the skip without too many difficulties, the same couldn't be said for Tenma.

Biting his nails, he was looking towards s.h.i.+ro with a mix of jealousy and anger.

'He's probably thinking that if he had those weapons he would be the same.' Tricia thought to herself as she understood the thinking pattern of narrow minded people like Tenma which only made her wonder why he was picked in the first place.

Talent was definitely the main reason but his personality was rather poor. If it was her, she would have never chosen him but it wasn't her job to say things about this.

However, her main concern is what he planned to do if this jealousy and anger boiled past a certain point.

She wasn't oblivious to the glance he exchanged with the other 'heroes' when her older sis revealed that Syrune could be the culprit. She didn't know what those glances meant but it gave her a bad feeling.

Noting down a few things, she whispered into Beril's ear.

"Are you sure?" Beril furrowed her brows as she glanced towards Tricia.

"Mn. I'm going to set it as a precaution." Tricia nodded her head.

". . . It's quite expensive to do this even for us. Are you sure we should do this?" Beril frowned since the materials that they were about to use were very rare.

"Mn it's a gamble I suppose. It's just in case something goes south. If it doesn't then at least we have a backup plan in case something goes wrong in this area." Tricia nodded her head.

"Alright I'll give you some of the things you need. Follow me." Beril sighed.

Telling Quella to stay here while they go do something, the duo left the area for now.

While Quella was curious, she knew that her sister's were probably doing something important so she only nodded and focused on s.h.i.+ro's fight.

As Tricia had guessed, s.h.i.+ro was able to break the a.s.sa.s.sin's guard and end his life swiftly. Thanks to her skillset, she was actually able to have a much easier time in this fight than the last as the a.s.sa.s.sin worked around stealth and clones. With her being able to leave a mark on his real body, she wasn't fooled at all.

After killing the a.s.sa.s.sin, s.h.i.+ro understood that she had three more champions that she needed to face before she could challenge the final level in Nyx's tower.

The next two champions were similar to the previous two where they focused on two specific aspects. The third champion was the most pitiful since he used magic but with s.h.i.+ro's Restriction of Magic, he was essentially useless. As for the fourth, it was a little more annoying since they focused on speed and swordsmans.h.i.+p but s.h.i.+ro was able to use the mark to predict where his next location was going to be and counter attack in time.

Quickly eating some rations and drinking a few potions, s.h.i.+ro wiped the blood off her face from the last fight since she had sustained a few shallow attacks which dirtied her outfit to her annoyance.

Ignoring the burning glare directed at her back thanks to Tenma, s.h.i.+ro focused her mind and prepared herself for the final champion.

*BANG!

Feeling the ground suddenly shake as if something heavy had just been dropped, s.h.i.+ro quickly stabilised herself and wondered what was going on.

*BANG!!!

Feeling the shake again, s.h.i.+ro suddenly felt danger beneath her and quickly jumped back.

*CRACK!!! BANG!!!!

Watching the ground in front of her shatter to pieces, s.h.i.+ro saw two giant muscular hands reach out of the ground with large cuffs on the wrist.

Slamming them against the edges of the arena, the hands heaved his large body out of the hole as s.h.i.+ro could see a muscular giant glaring at her with anger.

Blue flames flickered where his eyes would be. His black hair waved around as if it was in s.p.a.ce, devoid of gravity. With dark blue skin and white tattoos, the gant had an iron spear pierced through chest as runes started to light up around the giant.

*PING!

Shattering the spear into pieces, the giant broke off the chains that were locking his arms up.

Seeing this, s.h.i.+ro forced a smile since she barely had any s.p.a.ce to move in this area.

Summoning her axe, she twisted her body and slammed the axe against his stomach with all her strength.

*CLANG!!!

Feeling the axe crash against his rock hard abs, s.h.i.+ro looked up with a forced smile.

"Has anyone told you that your body is rock solid?" She asked as the giant only opened his mouth.

Feeling the touch of death, s.h.i.+ro immediately backed off and slammed her hand against the ground. Erecting layers upon layers of walls to protect herself, s.h.i.+ro watched as a torrent of flames shot out of the giant's mouth.

With the barrier in place, the flames weren't able to attack the spectators but they could feel the heat of the flames.

Watching a column of flames shoot into the air, rain soon started to pour as s.h.i.+ro dropped her defences.

Seeing s.h.i.+ro, Quella widened her eyes in shock since s.h.i.+ro's left arm was burnt and bleeding profusely as some of the bone could be seen.

Despite all her defences, the fire still pierced the stone walls and injured her left arm to this extent.

Quickly applying some medicine while the rain was falling, s.h.i.+ro narrowed her eyes at the giant.

Slamming her right hand against the ground, s.h.i.+ro swiped up as several earth spears shot towards the giant.

However, the giant shattered them apart with a single sweep of his hand.

Clicking her tongue, s.h.i.+ro glanced at her arm and saw that the muscles were slowly repairing themselves thanks to the medicine but the repair speed was slow.

Taking a deep breath, she decided to go on the defensive for now until her arm has healed.

"You actually replaced your final champion with him????" Gaia asked in shock as Nyx nodded her head.

"Doesn't this make things more interesting? Plus, if she defeats him, the tower will give her better rewards." Nyx grinned.

"Yes but isn't this a bit too much for s.h.i.+ro? I don't even think he could have done the skip if you summoned this giant." Gaia frowned.

"Don't worry just keep watching. I have my full trust in s.h.i.+ro. Since she probably won't have time to do the other towers, I want her to get as much as he can from the only remaining tower." Nyx narrowed her eyes at s.h.i.+ro before turning to Tenma and smirked.
