White Online Chapter 153

HolySword narrowed his eyes and scanned Isaac from head to toe. Even though he has heard about Marksman and how lousy of a class it is, he still didn't dare to belittle him, especially knowing that one good shot from his opponent would cause his demise.

Isaac took a deep breath and waited for the match to begin. He felt extremely small in the presence of HolySword, whose shadow alone overlapped his figure, which both made him intimidated, but also felt threatened.

''Gladiators!'' Tiffany's voice came from the speakers as she loudly declared the match to begin, ''Fight!''

Everyone who was watching leaned closer to the windows in hopes of seeing everything better, but then Tristan appeared and coughed loud enough to attract everyone's attention, ''Ahem, please stand back, we don't want any accidents to happen, right?'' He said innocently, but his back was drenched in sweat.

Tiffany was standing in front of one of the windows with a communication device in her hand, which was a small cube-like object which had a wire entering one of the machines in front of her.

The machine had the sound of wheels turning with mechanical sound and different kinds of colors beeping from the holes of the device.

She frowned and looked towards her brother, wondering why he didn't want anyone near windows.

NPCs and Players listened and took several steps backward, but just enough so that they could still see the match.

Back in the arena.

First signs of movement were seen.

It was coming from HolySword, who slowly but steadily started approaching Isaac.

Isaac took a step backward, trying to find a weak spot on HolySword's defense, but the massive shield and longsword were covering everything.

He wanted to keep his skills hidden, but he didn't have any other choice to break his defense.

Isaac came to a conclusion.

HolySword slowly moved closer and finally saw Isaac making some movements, and it surprised him. The barrel of Musket Rifle started having a layer of ice, which made certain that Isaac was about to use a skill.

HolySword lowered his stance until he was almost crouching with his shield touching the ground.

[Icy Shot!]

*Bam*

Isaac pressed the trigger three times, which sent three different bullets made of ice.

After he was done shooting, he jumped backwards and started making a larger distance towards HolySword.

*Clank*

The three ice bullets crashed onto HolySword's shield, but they only managed to make a thin layer of ice to form in the shield, while the bullets cracked apart from the impact.

Isaac's attack was not successful, and now HolySword knows that he has to be careful of the bullets made of ice.

'Layer of ice will appear on the barrel of that massive gun... I need to cover my body properly when he uses that attack... It can be destructive if it hits any of my body parts.' HolySword thought to himself and peeked behind the shield, trying to see where Isaac was.

But then, he widened his eyes as he saw Isaac using the concrete walls of the arena to propel himself up in the air!

Isaac masterfully controlled his leap and changed the direction of his Musket Rifle simultaneously.

After the barrel of the Musket Rifle was locked with HolySword's unguarded face, he fired.

*BANG!*

A terrifying sound of gun firing was heard, and a bullet flew like a missile straight towards HolySword's face, which was currently peeking behind the shield.

HolySword anxiously crouched and heard the sound of something fast flying past.

*BAM!*

The bullet struck the concrete wall and got buried inside.

'He is quick!' HolySword screamed internally and quickly peeked behind the shield, but this time he did it as quick as possible so that Isaac won't have time to fire at him.

He also wanted to take only a glimpse; he only needed to know Isaac's general position.

HolySword's head once again peeked behind the shield and saw Isaac rushing straight towards him with his gun in firing position.

*BANG!*

Another bullet left the Musket Rifle, but HolySword already expected it and had hidden behind the shield once again.

Once the bullet was about to collide with the concrete wall, it suddenly disappeared, without leaving any traces behind, but HolySword failed to notice it.

'I remember this gun having five shots... Three remaining.' HolySword has memorized everything that has been revealed in the forums, and he remembers a Marksman bragging about owning Musket Rifle, which closely resembled Isaac's gun.

He also revealed the full stats of the gun, and now everyone knows about the reload and shot capacity of the gun.

Isaac isn't aware of it yet; since he didn't play for a whole day and the game is still in baby steps, a lot of things can happen in a day!

HolySword heard the approaching footsteps, but he also knew that Isaac was controlling the match, and he couldn't keep going on like this.

He slowly stood up from his crouching stance, and he listened closely at the sound of footsteps, so he could know Isaac's general position, and once he was about 80% sure, he made his move.

Slightly changing direction, he took a step forwards, and suddenly an illusionary armory appeared around his muscular and tall figure.

The shield started glowing in the color of pure white.

Isaac had to cover his eyes after the bright, pure white appeared, but then he heard the sound of something approaching.

HolySword lunged towards Isaac with his shield still in front of him!

[Righteous Path!]

His steps caused a dust cloud to appear in his path, which also revealed his position to Isaac, who was already jumping to the side.

But before being able to do that, HolySword pushed his shield forwards and felt it colliding with something.

''Ugh!'' Isaac was hit by the side of the shield and flew a couple of meters before crashing down on the ground.

HolySword's rush came to a halt as he turned his head and saw Isaac lying down on the ground.. He quickly changed his directions and rushed straight towards Isaac with his longsword, ready to slash.
