Rise My Elementals! - Chapter 741

“Took you long enough to defeat Edi,” Edgar Pierce said.

“I didn’t see any need to rush,” Leo responded.

“Was it really necessary for you to almost burn Edi to death?” Selina raised one of her eyebrows in curiosity.

“He clearly had everything under control, so why bother about that?” Edgar Pierce shook his head helplessly at Selina. From her tone alone, she seems not to like the method that Guild Leader Loki had chosen.

That was indeed precisely what Selina felt. She doesn’t like the method that Guild Leader Loki had chosen. In her opinion, it would have been fine for him to do that against Edi if he was instead a hidden member of the Naughty Elves Organization. But clearly, the latter wasn’t. Edi is just an ordinary genius from a particular force in the Emerald Tree Kingdom. In addition to that, she also felt the same way as what that staff in charge of their fight, that killing Edi would be such a waste for all the things he could possibly do in the future for many people living in the territory.

“In the end, Edi was still safe and alive, right? So, what you feel doesn’t matter anymore,” Leo expressed his thought. But he then quickly changed the topic to prevent their conversation from going into a terrible turn, “Is there still no winner between Osborne and Faye?”

“You can see it for yourself,” Edgar Pierce pointed towards the fight between Osborne and Faye that is happening right now. He added, “Both of their fights against Harold and Coni, respectively, ended so quickly that I wasn’t able to watch it. But until now, their fight has still not ended, and it is pretty obvious from the sight alone what the reason is,”

Leo turned to look at the ongoing fight between Osborne against Faye and soon after saw a surprising sight.

Currently, Osborne stood in front of Faye, seemingly like an immovable mountain or a giant wearing metal armor. While Faye, on the other hand, albeit not looking threatening enough due to her thin feminine figure, was still someone not to be underestimated about due to her wearing her 5-Star level armor.

The two continued trading blow for blow, but all of their attacks were infective against each other as they all merely landed on their tough armors. This was regardless of their attacks being dealt with using weapons.

Just from this sight alone, one would easily understand why their fight hasn’t yet ended because both of them are wearing armors that increase their defenses. As a result, neither of their attacks were proven to be effective to the other as they all couldn’t get through to their defenses.

“Shocking, right?” Edgar Pierce asked wryly.

“Are these two planning to decide who’s the winner based on who has the toughest defense between the two of them?” Leo can’t help asking.

“Most likely,” Edgar Pierce replied while caressing his chin, a bit intrigued by such a development. If things would indeed turn out that way, then they’d have more time to recover their stamina and energy.

With that in mind, Edgar Pierce secretly glimpses at Guild Leader Loki by the side as he realizes that it would undoubtedly become unfavorable for him by that time as he had been conserving his stamina and energy all this time. The latter should still be thinking that no one had noticed his plan yet when in truth, he had already found out about it based on his actions. Furthermore, his line right now just further proven his assumptions.

“Then I guess we have more time to observe the capability of one of our potential opponents,” Leo crossed his legs on the ground.

“Exactly,” Edgar Pierce nodded his head in agreement. Indeed, aside from making the later rounds difficult for Guild Leader Loki, he could also learn more about Osborne’s capability. Thus he can prepare himself if ever he becomes his opponent. In other words, he was hitting two birds with one stone.

“So, who do you guys think will win?” Selina suddenly asked.

Hearing Selina’s question, Leo and Edgar Pierce simultaneously turned to look at her with strange expressions on each of their faces. In their minds, they both asked, “Isn’t it pretty evident already who will win?”

“Why, is there something on my face?” Selina quickly took a mirror from her Storage Ring to check if there was anything on her face. But after checking herself in the mirror, she didn’t find anything. Hence, she looked at Elmont by her side, who had remained silent all this time while focusing all of his attention on the fight between Osborne against Faye.

“Hey, Elmont,” Selina poked Elmont by his shoulder to interrupt him and get his attention.

“Yeah?” Elmont turned to look at Selina, questioning her about what she wants.

“Is there something wrong with my face?” Selina asked with a pout on her face.

“We were talking about the person who is obvious to win the fight. And Selina didn’t understand it and thought there was something wrong with her face,” Edgar Pierce took the initiative to explain things.

“Oh,” Elmont quickly understood the situation and turned his focus once again at Selina right after before saying, “No, it isn’t that there is something wrong with your face. It’s just that,”

Elmont paused and pointed towards Osborne and Faye, “Can’t you seriously not see who is likely to win between the two of them?”

“Yes, I can’t see. Is there perhaps something wrong with that?” Selina asked in doubt.

Heaving a heavy sigh, Elmont started explaining, “It might seem like no one has the advantage between Osborne and Faye’s fight, but if you observe both of them closely, you will soon notice that while the latter is fighting seriously, the former is merely taking his time to recuperate his stamina and energy. To put it simply, Osborne is only using this fight to prepare for the fight between you two,”

“Eh?” Selina didn’t quite believe what Elmont was saying, so she did what he said and started observing Osborne and Faye closely to see the difference between the two.

After observing for a significant amount of time, Selina finally noticed what Elmont meant. And indeed, it was just like what he had said; Osborne is not treating the fight seriously but rather had taken this opportunity to prepare for their fight. But along with that discovery, she also realized another thing, which made her stare at Elmont hatefully.

“Why didn’t you tell me about this when you long already noticed this?!” Selina exclaimed at Elmont.

“Eh…? Why… why is it my fault now?” Elmont started backing to the corner.

“Eh, why is it my fault now?” Selina started copying Elmont’s line before she blurted out, “Of course it is your fault! If only you had told me about this a long time ago, then I would have ignored all of you and start recuperating stamina and energy as well! You idiot boyfriend!”

“But you didn’t ask me about it!” Elmont defended himself while looking at Leo and Edgar Pierce, asking for help on what he should do to calm Selina down.

“Tell her…” Just when Edgar Pierce planned on helping Elmont, Guild Leader Loki suddenly raised his hand to stop him from mouthing any more words, “Why?”

“If you don’t want Selina to blame you, and involve me as well, then shut your mouth and don’t say any words,” Leo replied while at the same time shaking his head at Elmont as if telling him that he can’t help him. Otherwise, he’d also be blamed by Selina, too, especially considering that they both also didn’t inform her about this when they had already noticed it.

“Sorry,” Leo could only mutter those words using his lips so as not to make any sound that Selina could accidentally hear.

Receiving Leo’s response, Elmont nodded his head in understanding. He’s already familiar with how much Leo hates to deal with trouble caused by women, so the latter can’t be blamed if he doesn’t want to help him deal with Selina.

Since he has no other choice anymore, Elmont could only choose to apologize to Selina, “I now know about my mistake, so please forgive me. I promise you that I won’t repeat the same mistake in the future,”

Selina heaves a sigh of resignation before saying, “Nevermind. Be sure that there won’t be any next time, alright? Or else it won’t just be me potentially losing a fight in the Emerald Elven Battle Competition,”

“I promise!” Elmont’s eyes light up in delight after hearing that Selina had finally forgiven him.

After forgiving Elmont, Selina didn’t waste any more time and sat crossed-legged on the ground. In the next moment, she started recuperating to prepared for her fight against Osborne.

Seeing this, Elmont quickly runs towards Leo and Edgar Pierce, fearing that Selina would suddenly change her mind and get irritated with him again. By that time, a simple sorry from him would certainly no longer work again on her. Instead, he’d have to prepare something that would satisfy her and make her forget about this mistake.
