Flashy Adventurer System : Show Off to Get Stronger!

Chapter 696 The Perfect Mana Shift

"You think I'm done with you?! Die!"

A loud voice echoed across the grand halls, forcing Seira to face forward and focus.

A heavy, two-handed mace was right in front of her, threatening to smash her to meat paste.

'Tch, I need to focus!' Seira thought as she narrowly dodged the blow by leaning to the left and stepping back almost simultaneously, causing Glenn's attack to crash into the ground.

If not for the protective mana coating applied before the event, dark brown tile shards would fly everywhere instead of just a modest-sized crater and a small dust cloud.

Unfortunately, Glenn was now on a fierce offensive, and she had no choice but to defend herself until an opportunity to counterattack presented itself.

The Yon Augennian pressed forward with relentless fury, his mace swinging in all directions—left, right, up, down, and diagonally—driven by a fierce desire to pummel the Valenzian who had wounded his pride.

This was also the moment when Glenn found out that his agility and dexterity attributes were higher than Seira's, as the latter struggled to defend.

The midget backpedaled as quickly as she could while dodging and parrying her opponent's attack the best she could.

Unfortunately, her combat techniques weren't as refined as Siegfried's, so she had no choice but to block some of the attacks.

This was less than ideal, as the current buffed-up Glenn had a higher strength attribute than she does.

'I can't let this donkey find his groove!' thought Seira, staggering backward. 'Dwarven Might!'@@@@

Forced to use a [Rare]-tier power-up skill of her own, the midget gained a substantial boost in strength attribute.

However, it was rather unfortunate that the silver-spoon baby's rare skill—hard to come by even in Yon Augenn—still slightly outmatched Seira's.

Despite [Dwarven Might] leveling the playing field in terms of strength, it wasn't enough to fully tip the balance back in her favor.

Still, it at least allowed her to clash with Glenn without being knocked back or thrown off balance.

Seira wasn't moving, so Glenn thought that he had won.

After all, if his peak [Uncommon]-tier attack hit, Seira would be left with multiple broken bones that would take at least three days to heal, even with the help of priests and recovery potions.

It was bound to not happen, though, as Seira was merely baiting him in.

Shortly after, as Glenn moved within striking range, Seira deftly dodged using [Swallow Step] and retaliated with a [Power Slash] amplified by [Lethal Edge].

"B*tch!" the Yon Augennian shouted in frustration, realizing that the midget hadn't been deceived by the Earthen Python; it was he who had been outsmarted.

'No matter...' Glenn thought inwardly the next moment, smiling wickedly.

The sequence wasn't his killing combination for nothing.

Just before Seira's attack landed, the young Yon Augennian detonated the translucent boulder image, sending lethal shards flying in all directions except the caster's.

Naturally, the grape-haired midget was well within its range.

Glenn's smile grew wider upon noticing that multiple shards were about to hit Seira.

In the next moment, however, his smile faded into a frown as the foul-mouthed midget's body shimmered with a translucent blue glow, causing the shards to pass right through her.

"What an immaculate use of mana shift!" Dweezel exclaimed, rising to his feet, applauding, and smiling as he praised Seira's remarkably perfect response to the sudden attack.

"YOU B–"

*BONK!*

Glenn's words were abruptly interrupted when Seira's greatsword landed a clean blow on his temple, sending him crashing into the Deltrans' table—unconscious.

Soon after, an annoying yet familiar voice echoed across the entire grand hall.

"NYAHAHAHA! I TOLD YOU, BRATS FROM YON AUGENN! I, SEIRA RAMAH, WILL POUND THIS DONKEY-FACED LOSER INTO THE GROUND!! BAHAHAHAHAHA!"
