Rise My Elementals! - Chapter 732

“Fireball!” Leo cast.
BOOOOOM!
An explosion immediately erupted on both of Leo’s hands, burning the vines that covered them. With both of his hands now free, he quickly took out the Death Wake Dagger from his Storage Ring and freed the rest of his body from the vines.
Because Eme Clarity was near the explosion, her figure retreated a few meters away. But this didn’t make her panic, as she quickly stood up from the ground and prepared herself to cast another series of Vine spells.
“No, you won’t!” Leo exclaimed while throwing one of the pairs of Death Wake Daggers towards Eme Clarity’s hand, which was preparing to cast the Vine spell.
“Ahhh!” Eme Clarity cried out painfully as she stared at her right hand with a dagger that had currently penetrated thoroughly to the other side.
Gritting her teeth, Eme Clarity decided to use her left hand to cast the Vine spells. And this time, she put her left hand to her back so that Guild Leader Loki wouldn’t be able to hit it with another dagger again. Even if he tries to throw it to her front, her armor would just simply block his attack nonetheless.
“Vine spell!” Eme Clarity cast.
In the next moment, multiple vines shot out from the ground in front of her and charged straight towards Guild Leader Loki’s direction.
Needless to say, Leo wouldn’t let the same situation repeat again. After all, he’d no doubt get eliminated once Eme Clarity captures him for the second time. So, he quickly cast an earth wall in front of him to block the path of the vines. Simultaneously, he dashed away from the place to create distance from the vines.
“As long as I get out of the range of Eme Clarity’s Vine spell, she’d be unable to catch me anymore,” Leo thought to himself.
Previously, he was unable to think about this plan because his line of thoughts was wrong. He was looking for a location to hide from the vines in a place with only an open area. No matter which angle one would look, his decision was evidently wrong. That’s why he had no other choice left but to let himself be capture.
However, when Eme Clarity captured him, he suddenly remembered something when she started walking towards him. She could have just talked about her proposition from her initial location, right? And even if she intends to eliminate him, she could also use her Vine spells to force him to give up. So why did she approached him instead?
He remembered that any Magic spells, either strong or weak, always have a limited amount of range that they could reach, especially if it’s the kind of Magic spells similar to the Vine spell. Once a Magic spell crossed that range, they would either disappear or stop chasing after him.
With that being said, since Eme Clarity is a 1-Star level Mage, thus her Vine spell definitely only has a small amount of range that it could reach. To be more precise, it could only be slightly more or slightly less to the range that his Magic spells could reach.
That means to say that at the moment when he was captured, he was probably very close already to approaching the limit of the range of Eme Clarity’s Vine spells. That’s why she approached him so that she could extend her range far away from him and prevent him from accidentally escaping from her. Because if ever that indeed happens, he could just simply use his bow and arrow to attack her from a far distance. By that time, the situation would completely reverse to his favor, and not to her anymore.
Anyone in the shoes of Eme Clarity would undoubtedly not want the situation to turn against their favor, especially after putting that much of effort just to capture him.
“If my memory serves me correctly, I was thirty or so meters away from Eme Clarity. With that as my reference, her range should be around forty meters to fifty meters. Just to be safe, it would be better for me to get fifty meters away from her,” Leo decided in his mind.
Having made up his mind, Leo didn’t waste any time, nor did any unnecessary actions against Eme Clarity. He put all of his focus on getting to the fifty meters mark and get away from the range of her Magic spells.
Eme Clarity wasn’t stupid. As soon as she noticed that Guild Leader Loki was not doing anything aside from getting away from her, she immediately realized what he intended to do.
“As expected of the Guild Leader of the Mischievous Lion Guild. I really thought that I’d greatly hidden my actions at that time. Turns out that Guild Leader Loki was still able to see it,” Eme Clarity thought to herself.
Since her weakness was now seen through by Guild Leader Loki, Eme Clarity decided to also chase after him and not standby in the same location like a sitting duck waiting for a hunter to shot at her.
As a result, while Leo was trying to create fifty meters of distance away from Eme Clarity, she, on the other hand, was trying to prevent him from achieving that.
A simple way to describe the situation was like a cat and mouse chase between Leo and Eme Clarity.
The spectators currently watching the fight between Guild Leader Loki against Eme Clarity can’t help feeling disappointed at Guild Leader Loki’s action. They have decided to watch his fight because they wanted to see how he would easily defeat the genius of the Clarity Noble Household. After all, he had claimed total victory against her in the Survival Games, so they expect that he’d be able to do that again in the Battle Competition. But what is currently happening is completely contrary to what they have expected. It is basically Eme Clarity instead who is suppressing Guild Leader Loki right now.
