Terra Nova Online: Rise of The Strongest Player

Chapter 247: Leo Vs Cervantez (1)

“Ladies and gentlemen, elves and dwarves… beastmen and orcs… are you ready for the second fight of this semi-finals?” The announcer asked, as from the second he tried to hype the crowd up, chants for ‘TheBoss’ began from the crowd.

*Boss*

*Boss*

*Boss*

It was clear before the match even started as to who the crowd was rooting for, however, the announcer still had to make the announcements and hence he was forced to scream on top of the crowd’s chanting.

“In…intro…. introducing first the Guildmaster of the DarkSky guild, the enigmatic yet mysterious fighter…. DarkEmperor” The announcer said, as the crowd burst into claps and cheers for DarkEmperor’s entrance.

Although the support from the NPC section of the crowd was mild for DarkEmperor the players went batshit crazy for him.

“Let’s go DarkEmperor, show TheBoss who is number one!”

“I have put all my money on you DarkEmperor, don’t let me down”

“I want to join your guild…. Please take me in”

The players shouted wildly, hoping to catch his eye, however, their voices were drowned by the chatter of the crowd as Cervantez heard nobody.

Walking out to the arena with a steady gait, he looked focused and ready as he nodded towards the upper pavilion VIP guests and waited patiently for the referee to finish explaining the rules.

“Do you understand….?” The referee asked at the end, as he nodded in acknowledgement, prompting the referee to step back as the announcer introduced his opponent.

“And his opponent….” The announcer said, however, before he could even complete his introduction, his voice was drowned by the deafening cheers of the crowd as Leo strode out with his arms spread wide.

Massive banners with the words ‘Unbroken’ waved amongst the crowd as Leo spotted them and pointed towards them before giving his supporters a thumbs up.

If the atmosphere in the quarter-finals was electric then it was super electric today as Leo had never heard a louder crowd cheer ever in his life.

*BOSS*

*BOSS*

*BOSS*

The chants were unanimous and non-stop as his hype seemed to have reached a fever pitch.

“Fan support is good but it won’t win you fights” Cervantez said, taking a shot at him before the fight, as he seemed slightly envious of his reception.

Smiling behind his mask, Leo chuckled at Cervantez’s words as he said “Welcome to my town…. Guildmaster” as he began pumping his fists up and gesturing the crowd to scream even louder, which they did.

“Oh of course they cheer for you…. You dirty mobster… don’t think I don’t know about your connections to the Uprising” Cervantez said, hoping to throw Leo off his game by bringing up his link with the uprising, however, Leo only shrugged his shoulders in confusion.

“Brother what? I have absolutely no clue what you’re talking about …. The boss only rolls solo, I have connections to nobody” Leo said, as while he spoke the truth, Cervantez thought he was trying to mislead him as he did not take his words seriously.

Thankfully the majority of the crowd could not hear their interaction because of the loud sound, as if they did they would have been shocked to find out that the number one player had links to an underworld group like the uprising.

As Leo took his starting spot, the match referee quickly walked up to him and explained the rules as Leo nodded his head and gave him the assurance that he understood.

Once assured the referee stepped back, as after confirming once more that both contestants were ready, he signaled the start of the fight.

“Begin-” he said as almost instantly both Cervantez and Leo charged towards one another.

Cervantez, a special class player called ‘Warlock’, had the ability to both cast spells and use the sword, however, the only restriction he had was that he could only learn arcane type magic spells to cast.

This meant that he could not learn spells from every single skill scroll available in the market, however, the magic that he could learn was also unique and not many other classes could learn the same spells as him.

Up till now, he had only relied on his swordsmanship and superior stats and speed to win most fights, hiding his arcane spells for exactly this match-up.

*Shinggg*

Sparks flew as metal clashed against metal, as both him and Leo dashed towards each other with their blades out.

Leo, being the stronger fighter of the two managed to force Cervantez to take a step back after the initial clash, however, he could not outright push him back either.

*Shing*

*Shing*

*Shing*

*Shing*

Using his high speed, Leo tried to find an opening in Cervantez’s defenses, however, although Cervantez was not as fast as him or not as technical as Luke when on the defensive, the guildmaster of the DarkSky guild still managed to parry every strike that Leo tried to hit, as sparks flew every time their blades clashed.

“Yooo this is peak!”

“So this is what the fight between the number one and number two fighters looks like…. So cool!”

“I’m having goosebumps, those two guys are on a whole another level compared to us plebs”

“Fuck…. Look at that speed, I would probably be diced up five times by now”

“Boss!! Push harder….show them why you’re number one-”

“DarkEmperor, don’t let him set the tempo, push back!”

The crowd went bonkers for their initial exchange, as no party was able to establish dominance early into the fight, as eventually Leo had to accept that he could not open up Cervantez’s defenses through sheer speed alone and fall back to try with a new strategy.

“You’re good…” Cervantez said, when he finally got a moment’s time to breathe as he cracked his neck and exhaled deeply.

This fight was as intense as he’d hoped it’d be as TheBoss did not give him room to make a single error.
