Chapter 284 - Ronny Vs. Apparition P2

'Blitz Bolt
Blitz Steps
Sedated Perception
Stunning Speed
Fire Snakes.'
Ronny executed his spell combo. This time, instead of the fire snakes attacking the enemy, he had cast the spell in such a way that two fire snakes tied themselves around his arms. The snakes' heads were right above the daggers' tips he was holding with both his hands.
Ronny's Blitz Bolt was also maintained in a way that it would wrap both his arms with tongues of lightning. The false E-Ranker was maintaining two offensive spells on himself rather than releasing them.
Only Eren could do something like this with the control he had because of his past timeline's experiences. Julie couldn't help but get shocked by the amount of control the guy had shown by executing his offensive spells in this way.
"Hmm. No wonder the guy received such a high score in his rating. Ronny is trying to take things up a notch by starting like this. Maybe he is aiming to defeat more than two opponents.
Julie, you need to step up your game as well. Hehe. Of course, not in battle. I meant in bed. The guy is ambitious. He won't stay under the same skirt for too long."
Lady Zee warned her junior when she saw how Ronny wanted to pull the stopper on what cards he could play. Jules nodded her head at the former when she heard her speak and clenched her fist.
In the battle ring, a substantial amount of mana fluctuation took place when the two opponents collided with each other. Ronny had used the daggers to meet the opponent's sword. His arms were covered in lightning and fire.
Clank!
In a defensive move, Ronny's daggers blocked the sword. When that happened, Ronny was pushed back a few steps. He was only stabilized when he altered the Blitz Steps and strengthened it by pumping up its mana consumption.
Ronny was shocked by the apparition's prowess and his speed. His weapon agility wasn't something to be scoffed at either. His opponent's sword would have grazed his torso if he hadn't activated his time-element spells beforehand.
He soon recovered from his initial shock. He couldn't break the X formation that he had made with his dagger to block the sword and trap the opponent's weapon with it. So he used the spells he had maintained over his arms to do their work.
Ronny willed his spells and guided them with the help of his mana sense. The fire snakes that were on Ronny's arms started crawling forward. Similar to how they were placed on Ronny's arms, they covered the opponent.
But this time, instead of just resting, the fire-snakes started burning the mana layer Ronny's opponent was coated in with the help of their high temperature. Steam of mana and water started coming from the opponent's arms as a result of the fire-snakes doing what they had been sent out for.
But the misery didn't stop there for Ronny's opponent. The latter also sent out the lightning-element offensive spell he had been using to bolster his defensive stance.
The damage done by lightning and fire element spells at the same time wasn't something Ronny's opponent could brush off with ease. This was even when he was programmed to be higher in rank than Ronny.
The cloth of the opponent's sleeves was the first to be destroyed by the lightning spell. It was torn in multiple places all at once when Ronny's Blitz Bolt ran through his opponent's arms. The torn pieces of the sleeves then caught fire by the heat and fire generated by the fire-snake wrapped around the opponent's arms.
That left Ronny's opponent with only two choices. Maintain the stalemate with Ronny as he slowly destroys his mana layer and affects him with his spells. Or break the stalemate by risking a counterattack from the false E-Ranker.
Ronny would have liked it if their stalemate continued. His mana consumption would have been higher, but he would have gotten rid of his opponent with his two offensive exerting maximum impact on his opponent.
The apparition finally chose to face the counterattack by pulling his sword back. But it had underestimated Ronny. Because the latter was expecting this turn of events as well.

Breath of Fire
Sedated Perception'
Ronny changed his spell combo as soon as he sensed the block he had maintained with his daggers feeling less pressure than previously. He understood the apparition was pulling back to restart the play. Therefore, this was a good time to counterattack.
Eren released a stream of flames from his mouth towards his retreating opponent. This spell not only inflicted more damage but also blindsided his opponent. Ronny was not sure if the apparition without eyes could be blindsided.
But he guessed that since the purgatory had placed the same number of restrictions on the apparitions as if they were real-life rankers, they would mimic the effect of being blindsided if the dungeon participant executed their spells with that aim in mind.
He was right.
Despite his blindsided vision, the apparation swung his sword in front of him as he moved backwards to counter the enemy that was approaching him. But it wasn't enough to stop Ronny who had enhanced perception by his side.
"Where are you running off to?"
Ronny demonstrated the dagger arts taught by Marla. He cut through the opponent's natural mana defence using one of his daggers and cut the opponent's left hand from its wrist.
He caught the hand that was cut by his weapon with his right hand before throwing it at his opponent:
"Here, you dropped this."
The hand still maintained its original state and didn't disintegrate into light particles. It followed the logic of a real hand getting cut by Ronny and landing on the opponent's face.
"Aaaaaaaaaaa!"
Ronny shouted as he used the small opportunity he had created for himself. He charged forward and attacked the opponents' heart by plunging one of the daggers into it.
The daggers had been coated with lightning and fire that destroyed the already unstable mana defence the opponent had and allowed the dagger to get lodged into the opponent's heart.
The opponent stopped moving when that happened. He looked down to see the damage done to him. But his body had already started disintegrating into light particles when he was in the process of looking up.
Like this, Ronny had taken care of his opponent in the first few moments of the fight. It surprised not only Jules and Renar, but Lady Zee was also quite impressed by the guy's presence of mind.. In addition, she observed that he had a fierce will to dominate his opponent in such a manner.
