System vs Rebirth

Chapter 1130 Reinforcement

"You won't be able to escape." Yesley harrumphed and struck Anna with his powerful spiritual energy, knocking her down.

Anna clicked her tongue. She released a burst of spiritual energy to neutralize Yesley's power before running at full speed again.

Yesley couldn't help but furrow his eyebrows. He knew that the auction location wasn't that far from here. However, it didn't change the fact that no one could actually help her. Even if there were multiple spirit grandmasters, Yesley could simply crush them.

On the other hand, the person who was observing the fight couldn't help but furrow his eyebrows, thinking, 'What is she doing? Is she planning to do something? No. Considering the location, is she trying to use the city where the auction is held to rally numerous experts to resist Yesley?

'The auction is quite big, so there should be a lot of noticeable figures. There's a chance that more than three spirit grandmasters are among the visitors. Is that her plan?

'But Yesley's current ability can easily handle a few grandmasters. Anna should have figured it out this whole time, so her decision doesn't make sense. I smell a scheme…

'Now that I think about it, Noel Ardagan is not here, despite the fact that they were together when crossing the border. Did they sense us? Impossible, we were extremely far away…

'Still, if they sensed us the whole time, there was a possibility that Noel Ardagan had been going ahead the whole time. Is he trying to set up a trap or get the cooperation of those people?

'Is that their plan? If Noel and Anna use their True Spirit Body along with the help of a few spirit grandmasters, they might be able to resist Yesley. But we can still crush them as long as I get involved.'

The guy frowned, not being able to understand their plan. 'Nevertheless, I can simply join the fight.'

Anna continued running, trying to reach their original destination. With her full speed, she could cover that distance in just ten minutes.

But during that time, she had to get hit by Yesley's attacks multiple times.

Anna didn't just get hit. She actually smeared some sand and dust on her body and let Yesley's attack rip some parts of her clothes, acting like his attack was effective. She even resorted to slowing down.

Yesley chased her without suspecting that she was merely acting.

Finally, after running for so long, she could see a towering city wall in the distance.

Yesley understood her plan completely, but his current power allowed him not to care about those people that Anna considered reinforcements. It would be even better if Anna entered the city since he could destroy it together with her, which would complete both of his objectives.

However, it appeared that Anna wasn't insane enough to involve the civilians. She stopped fifty meters outside the city and turned around.

"I'm going to stop you here." Anna released another burst of energy, as if showing her determination.

"Enemy attack?!"

"We need to call the captain!"

"Call for reinforcement!"

The soldiers were shouting at one another, making their intentions clear.

"It's useless. It's time for me to destroy all your hope!" Yesley smirked and waved down his hand, releasing another energy that felt as if the sky were falling. "I can simply crush you before anyone can come out of the city."

Anna stood there with a serious expression, as though she had accepted her fate. However, she soon smiled as she felt another fluctuation of energy.

All of a sudden, a water droplet appeared in the air and expanded into a giant bubble.

"!!!" Yesley widened his eyes in shock. The spiritual energy he sent forth hit the bubble, flattening it like that of a balloon.

However, the bubble didn't pop. Instead, it absorbed a portion of the energy from Yesley's attack and bounced the rest back into the air.

"What? Who?" Yesley gasped. He never thought that someone would stop him. In addition, this person was strong enough to actually block his power, unlike what Anna had been doing.

The big bubble suddenly burst into multiple smaller bubbles floating in the air.

Yesley looked around, trying to find the person. However, the bubbles got closer to him, so he had no choice but to destroy them.

Yesley clasped her hands, forming two giant arms on his back.

"Haaa!" Yesley used these giant hands to slap the bubbles, only to get caught.

Yes, the bubbles did get squeezed for a bit, but the deformed part ultimately circled around the arm like a ring, trapping the hand inside. After that, the bubbles turned extremely hard, as if they were being locked in the air.

"What is this? My power is useless against these bubbles? I have far surpassed a spirit grandmaster." Yesley gritted his teeth. He never thought there would be a person of this caliber appearing in this city.

"A mere fake transcendence actually dares to challenge a real transcendence… I don't know if you are foolish or bold, but you have crossed the line. For daring to mess with my country, I bestow you death." A woman's voice echoed in the area.

Yesley instantly picked up the origin of that voice and looked up, finding a woman sitting on top of a bubble with her legs crossed.

She had long, spiky blue hair that was tied into a ponytail. Her eyes were sharp, like a beast's. She was wearing a rather revealing outfit: a tube top, shorts, and a leather jacket. She was smiling, revealing her pointy teeth like a shark.

"You… You are… one of the three Spirit Transcendences of the Zaecuria Kingdom, Fradania Elison." Yesley gasped. He never thought that such a person would appear on the outskirts of the kingdom.

"It seems that a faker can't even notice the true power. I don't know how you have that power, but you reeks of demons." Fradania snorted.

"A faker?" He noticed another clue that she had just left behind. He couldn't notice the true power? There was only one person who could actually match her description. And that person suddenly appeared behind him with a speed that far surpassed what his eyes could follow. Yes, Anna was already behind him, ready to draw her blade. "You—"

"Quick Draw, Lightning Flash."
