- Chapter 305 What happens when two overthinkers fight?
Knock! Knock!
Someone knocked at Lith’s door.
Lith knew who it was and went to get the door. Opening it, he saw Alexandra in her black sect robes.
“Come in.” Lith invited her in and the two sat on two chairs in the living room.
Alexandra, after getting seated, got straight to the point and asked, “So when are we having the rematch?”
She cared about fights the most as it made her feel a lot pleasurable and it was no wonder she didn’t waste time and got straight to the point.
Watching someone of the same or above her own prowess get beaten up to a pulp and despair was truly a very pleasing feeling for Alexandra.
“One second. I’ll tell you.” Lith said and took out his phone.
He didn’t get time to schedule a match with Alexandra as he was busy cultivating and learning about the secret technique of the sect.
He called Hecate and in just a minute, she made arrangements for Lith’s match with Alexandra in some private gymnasium near them. Hecate was very fast with her work and that surprised Lith.
Lith put his phone down and said clearing his tone to Alexandra, “tomorrow at 9 am. Meet me and I’ll take you to the venue for our fight.”
“Okay.” Alexandra said and left.
Looking at her go, Lith thought, ‘she sure did things to the point. I should also work like that, it’ll save me a lot of time and I’ll have my cultivation raised faster.’
Lith checked the time after Alexandra left and saw it to be 8 pm. He decided to sleep for six hours and meditate after waking up until it was time for his match with Alexandra.
Next day.
In a private gymnasium in Redstone City.
Lith brought Alexandra to this gymnasium by teleportation. He used the teleportation token given to him by Emilia and after reaching, he only needed to scan a code and enter the gymnasium.
The gymnasium was well lit throughout and had a high ceiling and was pretty long in length and width.
He and Alexandra didn’t waste time after entering and immediately got to fighting.
Alexandra dashed like yesterday and this time, Lith did so as well.
Lith had a normal sword in his hand and Alexandra had a double bladed sword. The two swords clashed once again and because of their clashing, loud clanging sounds resonated throughout the gymnasium.
The two repeatedly dealt blows at each other. One would hit and another would block and vice versa kept happening until the two had done a total of 200 hits each.
The two backed off after half an hour of clashing.
“Huff… Huff…” It was Alexandra who was breathing heavily after they backed off.
Lith’s suppression made things very difficult for her despite her being a Rank 8. She couldn’t do anything about it and while trading blows with Lith, she wondered how he let out such powerful aura from.
But her curiosity was buried under the thrill she felt while fighting with him. Halfway through their blows, she forgot about everything and was focusing only on thinking what her next would and how she would counterattack Lith.
Though she may like watching people suffer, she was in a sense a true battle maniac and a lot of times derived pleasure from combat as well.
Lith on the other hand was amazed. He was amazed knowing how wonderful it felt to fight with someone of your own level. Playing on a leveled ground truly brought out the true potential of one.
Lith hadn’t used any other elements other than Destruction and Lightning. He could use other elements but that would let Alexandra know that he had an all-elemental affinity and one of his big secrets would be revealed. He didn’t want that.
But, he did use a lot of techniques taught to him by Lucy. These moves weren’t anything flashy, they just required a lot of thinking and pitch perfect response time for execution.
Lith was tired like Alexandra as well but his endurance was much better than hers, all thanks to his harsh training with his older sister.
Alexandra didn’t move from her place and tried to recover. Lith also did the same thing and both took a small five minutes break without even communicating with each other.
Lith decided it was enough rest and he took his spear from his ring. He cast a Lightning spell on it and threw it at Alexandra with full force.
Alexandra could feel the energy imbued into the spear. If she wasn’t careful, it would definitely injure her. But she didn’t panic and waited for the spear to come at her.
The spear was a weapon that almost always went into a single trajectory once shot. This was true if the person wielding it was someone of a low rank. Alexandra wasn’t too low of a rank but she also wasn’t someone high in ranks either. If her case was like that and Lith had the same prowess as her, she made out that this spear had more to it than her eyes could see.
Thus she was fully on guard and ready to cast Short Jump at any moment’s notice to avoid the spear.
The spear closed in on her and as it was just a few meters away, she decided to cast Short Jump and teleport away. It seems she was just overthinking as the spear seemed to have a straight trajectory.
She teleported out but just to be extra careful, she once again immediately casr Short Jump and teleported to some random place a few tens meter away.
BOOM!
“Cough! Cough!”
Just as Alexandra teleported out, she got hit by the spear and the spear exploded after hitting her as well, causing a loud noise to be heard.
Alexandra coughed as she got injured and got distracted by that for a few seconds.
BAM!
“Ugh.”
Becoming distracted in the middle of a fight, she paid a price for it.
Lith had teleported close to her and kicked her to the side and sent her flying. He had channeled some Destruction energy to his legs before kicking her and that provided a boost to his kick, making Alexandra get sent flying.
He once again teleported close to her and didn’t give her a single chance to recover. He kept attacking her with as many moves as he knew about and broke her bones at a speed faster than her healing speed, making her be in constant pain.
Lith was only possible to do this because of using one smart move. He knew Alexandra would think that there would be something fishy with his sword and focus a lot on it. Her guess was indeed true and there really was something fishy.
Lith had sneakily imbued Space spells on the spear and masked it with a slight Destruction element. This made Alexandra make out that it was Destruction that would create problems for her.
But, that wasn’t it. She was also overthinking. She thought that Lith would not be stupid enough to send a spear straight at her and she did think that he would somehow manage to make the spear hit her right when she teleported out and so for that reason, she teleported once again.
This thinking process was easily figured out by Lith who was trained to always think multiple moves ahead of him.
The Space spells on the spear resonated with Alexandra’s spell and they teleported to where she went in her first jump. But despite teleporting to the correct place, it wasn’t able to hit her as she teleported again.
Lith was only a Rank 3 and casting Space spells that would make his spear resonate with his opponent’s Space elemental energy was not possible to do. He was limited to one time only for now.
Lith knew about this and so he had another spear prepared in his hand to attack Alexandra as soon as he saw an opening and he really did see one and attacked her.
Thus, with such a simple thinking, Lith was able to spoil an overthinkers plan this easily.
Alexandra was bound to get hit no matter what she did. If she decided to not teleport, the Space spells won’t resonate and it would simply hit her there. But if she did decide to teleport once, the spear would do the same thing and hit her.
But, even if she decided to teleport twice, Lith had measures.
There was no way she would be able to teleport thrice as Lith knew that jump spells burnt a good amount of spiritual power and during battle, every bit was important and so a person shouldn’t waste it.
Lith assumed that Alexandra had at least this much common sense and wouldn’t do a third teleportation.
To avoid Lith’s attack, Alexandra had only one way. It was…
To run away!
That’s right, it was a simple running away solution.
Had Alexandra decided to dodge the spear by simply running away normally, the spear wouldn’t have been able to hit her.
But Lith knew that she had Space affinity and no person with Space affinity would think of running normally when there was some dangerous weapon coming towards them at a very fast speed.
Thus with a bit of thinking and planning, Lith ended up gaining the upper hand and he was now attacking Alexandra to the fullest and trying to end this match with his victory.
Alexandra was injured so badly after a point that Lith decided to stop. If he continued even further, her body would appear like a flesh monster and it would be a very grotesque scene.
Lith felt slightly bad to have gone a bit overboard and so he decided to heal her.
Lith made Alexandra get up and made her sit on a chair. He then made her look him in the eyes and said seriously,
“Have this. You’ll recover faster.”
Lith opened her mouth and cutting his wrist, he made her drink his blood.
Alexandra wasn’t in the right state of mind to think of what she was doing and what Lith was making her do. So she simply went with the flow and started drinking Lith’s blood.
