"And this person..." Kanaria abruptly stopped her explanation regarding the enemy. "Is there something wrong, Clovis?"
Clovis seemed to be in the middle of deep thought as if there was a big problem in their plan.
Clovis remained silent for a minute before saying, "I'm thinking about ending the first battle by myself."
"By yourself?" Kanaria furrowed her eyebrows. "Are you serious?"
"Yes." Clovis nodded.
"If you do it that way, it means that the rest of us will remain on the base, protecting the flag. But if we do it that way, you will be targeted by our opponents. More importantly, you have to show your power..."@@@@
"I know. I've got some plans in mind. And I want to ask you all to trust me."
Kanaria furrowed her eyebrows and glanced at the others. "Well, I don't really mind. Even if your plans are not perfect, you always think carefully about all of them."
"Are you going to have all the fun for yourself?" Jay clicked her tongue.
Clovis shook his head. "This is to win... especially against that Erwin. I don't think he is a mere Tier 3. In exchange, how about I let you fight against the Eight Swords' captain tomorrow?"
Jay's expression brightened. He wanted to fight against the other team's captains. The fact that Clovis gave him the chance to test his strength against a Tier 4 opponent meant he was planning to advance to the final since Rafael was the first Tier 4 they would encounter in this tournament.
"Fine." Jay harrumphed. "I'll let you do whatever you want. I will become the bait so that you can conserve your energy in the third round and face that Tier 4 woman in the final."
Clovis smiled. As expected, Jay fully understood what he wanted just from those hints alone.
"I don't really mind." Ragna nodded. "All I want to do is win. As long as it can help us defeat our opponent, I don't really mind."
"In that case, I will support you from the back, giving their locations and paths." Melody shrugged. She cared more about reaching the high tier and getting a doctor for her brother than glory anyway.
Clovis smiled.
Remembering the agreement, everyone from Libation Fiesta except for Clovis remained on the base. Only Clovis stood several meters in front of them, waiting for the signal to begin.
"!!!" Everyone in the stadium couldn't help but widen their eyes, seeing that confident look from Clovis.
"Is he..." Rafael furrowed his eyebrows.
"I will intercept him together with those two. You guys move toward us and block any potential attack from their base. And don't go too far in case they are trying to lure us and let their quickest fighters slip past us from the edge."
"Understood."
They immediately positioned themselves accordingly.
"They're good!" Aileen muttered. "They consider possibilities and calmly adjust their strategy. But..."
Aileen looked at Clovis, who was about to encounter the two members of the Raging Bull. The captain would need a few more seconds to reach their positions.
"Here he comes!" One member using a sword shouted. He sped up while saying, "I'll stop him!"
"I will support you from behind." The other member who used a spear nodded.
"It's Clovis!" The sword user recognized Clovis in an instant, warning everyone.
"Their captain is here. Let's defeat him right away!"
They were moving toward Clovis, planning to take him on.
"Even if my speed is not fast enough, I can still withstand all your attacks." The sword user shouted as he stepped forward, swinging his sword.
This battle was a disadvantage for Clovis. It wasn't because of the number, it was due to the fact that he couldn't injure them too heavily. If he could, he would have cut them down, or at least their limbs, first to get an opening.
Hence, Clovis moved from below.
"Haaaa!" The sword user swung his sword downward, planning to overwhelm Clovis.
Sadly for him, Clovis's speed was beyond what he had seen in the video.
Clovis sped up one whole level and struck his opponent's sword before the guy could even apply his weight to his attack.
Cling!
"!!!" The guy widened his eyes in shock, almost getting knocked back due to the momentum.
The people couldn't help but rise from their seats, not believing the speed Clovis had just shown.
