An intense fight immediately broke out the moment Leo disbanded his alliance with Osborne. At this moment, no one was teaming up anymore. All three of them went to attack each other without anyone holding back anything.

Numerous explosions echoed throughout the stage, and the ground started shaking as Leo, Osborne, and Edgar Pierce continued exchanging attacks one after the other.

Boooom! Bang!

Boooom! Bang!

Boooom! Bang!

At the same time, Leo's Golems and Edgar Pierce's Sword Mantises were having their own fight by the side as well.

"Still hiding behind your Golems, Edgar Pierce?

" Leo scoffed before throwing a Fireball spell in an opening towards Edgar Pierce.

But this opening didn't stay long as a Golem soon moved to cover it.

Booooom!

"Princess Tila had never mentioned that I am not allowed to use my Golems to protect me,

" Edgar Pierce refuted.

"Fair enough,

" Leo said as his lips slowly formed into a mischievous smile.

"I don't feel good seeing that you're smiling like that,

" Edgar Pierce felt a bit nervous after seeing Guild Leader Loki's sudden change of expression.

"Let's see who has more Golems!

" Leo raised his arms before muttering,

"Come forth, my Golems!

"

Whoooosh! Whoooosh! Whoooosh!

Edgar Pierce's face slowly turned from a look of delight to a look of shock as he watched five more Golems appearing in front of Guild Leader Loki. It wasn't only him who was feeling such emotions. Osborne, who was on the opposite side of Guild Leader Loki, was also feeling the same.

"No wonder you disbanded our alliance. So, it was because you have this under your sleeves to replace me,

" Osborne felt a bit disheartened.

"Think whatever you want,

" Leo shrugged his shoulder off before quickly ordering his newly summoned Golems to take care of Edgar Pierce's Golems.

"This is unfair! You might as well call this a Golem Competition and not a Battle Competition!

" Edgar Pierce exclaimed.

Leo simply shook his head after hearing Edgar Pierce's words. He replied,

"Just to be clear, I am only summoning more Golems so that you won't keep relying on your Golems. Don't you want this to be an actual Battle Competition? Then let's fight with ourselves and not rely on Golems or something similar to that!

"

"Guild Leader Loki is correct, Edgar Pierce. Since you want a Battle Competition, then stop relying on your Golems to protect you and fight us personally using your weapon,

" Osborne supported Guild Leader Loki. But deep inside, he just wanted Edgar Pierce's Golems gone since it is difficult to approach the latter with the Golems around to protect him.

"Tell me honestly, did you two really disband your alliance just now? Because it feels like you are ganging up on me,

" Edgar Pierce asked in doubt. Despite saying that, he still ordered his Golems to step aside and stop protecting him. He thought,

"It seems like it's time for me to get serious!

"

Waving his hand, Edgar Pierce took out his lance from his Storage Ring and pointed it in front of him.

"Good!

" Osborne felt delighted. He quickly raised his shield and sword in front of him.

"What a bunch of show-offs,

" Leo muttered as he raised both of his hands and pointed it towards Osborne and Edgar Pierce's direction. He cast,

"Earth Spikes!

"

Whoooosh! Whoooosh!

Whoooosh! Whoooosh!

Seeing the incoming earth spikes, Osborne swiftly raised his shield to block the attack. On the other hand, Edgar Pierce thrust his lance multiple times in front of him.

Bang! Bang!

Whooosh! Whooosh! Whooosh! Whooosh! Whooosh!

Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!

"Is that the best you can do, Guild Leader Loki?

" Osborne said with a mocking tone in his voice.

"I didn't even break a single sweat with your attack,

" Edgar Pierce smirked.

"Is that so?

" Leo raised one of his eyebrows. He continued,

"Didn't you see already what I can do with any projectiles?

"

As soon as Leo's voice died down, a series of explosions erupted in front of Osborne and Edgar Pierce, immediately throwing their bodies a few tens of meters to their rear.

The most unfortunate one was Edgar Pierce since he had no shield to protect himself. As a result, he received the full brunt of the explosion.

Osborne was still standing on his feet as he slowly retreated from his previous location.

On the other hand, Edgar Pierce was like a stumbling ball bouncing from one place to another. It was only after nearly ten or so of bounces that he finally came to a stop.

A cloud of dust covered both Osborne and Edgar Pierce's figures, hindering everyone's eyesight and preventing them from finding out their current state after directly receiving Guild Leader Loki's attack.

"How mischievous of Guild Leader Loki. He actually embedded the Magic circle of a Fireball spell onto his Earth Spike spells, completely fooling Osborne and Edgar Pierce,

"

"Guild Leader Loki truly made them think that they were just ordinary earth spikes,

"

"Even I was fooled by Guild Leader Loki. Just when exactly did he embed Fireball spells onto those earth spikes?

"

"I am afraid that only Guild Leader Loki would be able to provide us with the answer,

"

"Yeah….

"

Unbeknownst to everyone, Leo had actually embedded the Fireball spells at the same time when he had cast the Earth Spike spells. During that moment, he secretly used his capability to multi-cast and cast two different Magic spells.

That was the main reason why no one noticed when exactly he had embedded the Fireball spells to his Earth Spikes spell.

Needless to say, he has no plan of revealing to them what happened. After all, this is one of his ultimate trump cards. The only reason why he decided to use it was that he realized that his weapon would be at a disadvantage against either of Osborne's and Edgar Pierce's weapons. As such, he thought of causing injury to them so that he could lessen both of their fighting capability, and maybe by then, he could have the advantage or even make the situation fall into a stalemate.

"Why do I always forget that I am fighting against someone who is extremely mischievous,

" Osborne muttered as the smoke covering him slowly disappeared.

"At least you're fortunate than me. Even though you were caught by the explosion, you had your shield on hand to protect me. As for me…. Cough!

" Edgar Pierce coughed a mouthful of blood. He continued,

"Fuck! I think some of my bones broke,

"

"Of course, they would. After all, you were like a ball repeatedly bouncing on the ground. Just a friendly reminder, I think you should also check your little brother over there and see if he's not broken,

" Osborne said jokingly.

"Rest assured, I won't let anything bad happen to my little brother. Otherwise, your mother would become lonely,

" Edgar Pierce roasted.

"Damn! I didn't expect that you could be that hardcore! An Elf doing that with an Orc? I can't even dare to imagine how it would look like,

" Leo said, a bit disgusted at Edgar Pierce.

"You….!

" Edgar Pierce seriously can't believe that his roast would quickly turn around to bite him.

"For the first time ever, I have seen an indecent Elf,

" Osborne started clapping his hand.

"Damn you!

" Edgar Pierce before lunging himself towards Osborne.

"Hmph!

" Osborne coldly harrumphs as he also lunges himself forward.

Clanggggg!

A loud sound of metal hitting against metal echoed on the stage as Edgar Pierce's lance and Osborne's sword made contact.

"Don't forget about me!

" Leo interrupted as he cast Fireball spells towards Osborne and Edgar Pierce.

"Don't disturb us!

" Osborne and Edgar Pierce exclaimed in unison as they both raised their hands and cast,

"Earth Wall!

"

Whoooosh! Whoooosh!

Whoooosh! Whoooosh!

Four tall earth walls rose from the ground and blocked Leo's Fireball spell.

"Tch! Remember that this is a one versus one fight!

" Leo said while running to the side. The only location blocked by the earth walls was to his north. Meaning to say, he can still choose to attack from either the northeast or northwest, whichever area can provide him with the best advantage in attacking them.

"Of course, we didn't forget that! We just thought of you as a nuisance!

" Osborne responded.

"Exactly! Why don't you stay by the side and continue scheming like what you always do? Just leave us alone for a bit until we finish fighting here!

" Edgar Pierce added.

"If you're thinking of using those lines to enrage me and make me lose my cool. I have a piece of unfortunate news to tell you; that won't work! So, I suggest that both of you should just stop already because you are just wasting your saliva,

" Leo expressed dismissively.

"It seems like our plan has failed,

" Osborne shook his head in regret.

"What plan? Did we ever have any, to begin with?

" Edgar Pierce smiled cunningly. In the next moment, his lance made contact with Osborne's shield as he quickly cast,

"Fireball!

"

Booooooom!

A loud explosion erupted as Osborne's figure shot tens of meters to the rear.

"Finally, the real nuisance is gone,

" Edgar Pierce heave a sigh of relief before turning his attention to Guild Leader Loki. He muttered,

"This time, I won't let you beat me so easily like before!

"
