Chapter 473 – Theo Vs Maya Part 1
After Theo left, Maya and Nikita started talking about how Maya had finally met her match. She was completely owned by Theo earlier.
On the contrary, Theo went back to his house to pick up his spears. He wanted to finish everything today, so he fastened his pace and asked Maya to do the same.
The two met up in Art Beats City three hours later. There wouldn't be a single monster that could become a threat to both Maya and Theo.
Theo only brought his spears with him. Meanwhile, he found several bracelets on Maya's arms together, a total of twenty rings on her fingers, and some sort of metal backpack behind her.
Although her accessories were absurd, Theo knew all of those weapons were deadly.
He glanced at this blonde girl with a serious expression..
Feeling Theo's stare, she turned to him. "What?"
"Nothing. Your assistant just proved her point by looking at all those accessories." Theo shrugged.
Maya obviously knew what Theo implied. He was talking about how Nikita said she was a Spendthrift.
"I believe you didn't have that many weapons back in the competition."
"It's because of those shitty rules." She shrugged. "Don't worry. These guns are for C Rank Monsters most of the time…"
"Most of the time, huh." Theo rolled his eyes as they made their way outside Art Beats City. They headed to the south, where Maya found a plain half of the Grand Gaia arena-size surrounded by trees.
The grass on their feet was not that long, so it wouldn't restrict their movements. The monsters had been cleared by Nikita too, so there wouldn't be anything that distracted them.
Theo and Maya stood in front of each other. Maya had a smile on her face while summoning the first bracelet that turned out to be a light blue pistol. One of the rings turned into a magazine for the pistol, and Maya inserted it into the gun before pulling it back.
"I'm ready," said Maya while looking at Nikita on the side, observing their movement.
Theo, on the contrary, raised both spears.
"You're not going to use your clone now?" Maya was slightly confused by Theo's action.
"Nope." Theo rejected her to see whether she would get angered by his action or not. He had been looking down on her this whole time, so her patience should be running out.
But surprisingly, Maya still wore a smile on her face as if his action didn't matter.
Seeing such a mental fortitude, Theo took a few steps back to gain enough distance to react to her bullet speed. He had seen her bullet speed in Grand Gaia, so he got a good grasp for today's battle.
"No need to walk away. I have sacrificed a portion of speed in order to increase the damage." She chuckled.
Theo remained silent, so she thought Theo was ready for this fight. She then grabbed a bullet and said, "The fight starts as soon as this bullet hits the ground."
Theo nodded.
After getting Nikita's approval, Maya threw the bullet into the air.
Theo and Maya clenched their weapons tighter as their hearts began to race, waiting for the bullet to go down.
These five seconds felt like a few minutes.
Clink.
The bullet touched the ground.
Maya hurriedly aimed at Theo and released the first three shots in succession.
Theo saw the bullets glowing after reaching a certain speed. He had seen this light blue glow back in the competition.
According to the information, it was the process she needed to accelerate the bullet enough to cause a reaction inside it that literally changed a normal bullet to a plasma ball.
Theo poured his Magic Power into his spear and waved it toward the first bullet.
Bam.
The first bullet caused a small explosion that blew his spear away.
Theo tilted his body to the side to avoid the second bullet while piercing the third one with his other spear.
When Theo tilted his body, he sneakily summoned his Magic Bullets.
These bullets flew to Maya.
Maya prepared to receive it, but the Magic Bullets surprisingly made more than ten turns in the process and seemed to plan to continue for another while.
She ended up leaping to the side to avoid these bullets, only to meet the Tracking Ability.
Having seen enough of Theo's Magic Bullets, Maya aimed at Theo again and shot him.
Bang.
Theo clicked his tongue and slashed the bullet, causing another explosion. Luckily, Theo managed to grip the spear strong enough to receive the explosion force, adjusting his strength to ensure he didn't lose his spear later.
Still, Maya had achieved her objective. With her bullets occupying Theo's attention, the Magic Bullets wouldn't turn anymore.
She summoned the shield from another bracelet, the same shield she used to block the water.
Boom.
Boom.
Boom.
A series of explosions occurred to blow her away, but Maya had leaned to the front while the spikes beneath her shoes seemed to have penetrated the ground to gain enough support to stop the force.
"Interesting." Maya smirked and retracted her pistol before changing to a new one.
"!!!" Theo was stunned and instinctively summoned three tombstones from the ground, forming a shield in front of him.
Maya's next weapon was a shotgun.
Bang.
She shot his shield, hoping to break it, but Theo's shield turned out to be sturdy enough to withstand the full brunt of Maya's explosion bullets.
Maya didn't believe Theo could withstand all the bullets, so she rapidly fired a few more times until she emptied the weapon.
Theo clicked his tongue and received all of her attacks, waiting for an opportunity.
The moment the clicking sound of the gun echoed in his ears, Theo knew Maya needed to reload. In that instant, he used his Blink to arrive behind her.
Maya, who was about to reload her gun, noticed his presence and waved her shotgun, receiving Theo's spear with the shotgun's barrel.
However, she was shocked when he completely overpowered her and launched her away.
"Kh… What is that swing?" Maya gritted her teeth while examining her body. "My right hand feels numb. No wonder he is so confident. I need to maintain our distance."
She used this chance to put another bullet into the shotgun and shot at Theo.
Because he couldn't use his Three Great Defense, he resorted to his Ring of Honor, forming a golden screen in front of her.
However, this was his mistake because the moment the bullet hit, lightning sparked and hit his leg.
Theo gritted his teeth and leaped away, gaining some distance from her.
Their eyes intertwined as they thought the same thing.
"He (She) is strong."
