Chapter 160: I''m Not Done YetIt was quite awkward facing Leon once again.

    "So... Why are you here again?" [Solace]

    "The reward is a special herb Master wants." [Leon] Sёarch* The n?velFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

    "Jukhan?" [Solace]

    Leon nodded.

    ("This guys just LOVES getting in my way.") [Solace]

    It really had to be the herb I needed to help Fina get her mana back.

    "What does Jukhan even need it for?" [Solace]

    Leon then began to salivate.

    "Seasoning." [Leon]

    "Ain''t no way." [Solace]

    Leon was present when Master told me about the flower to cure Fina, but I guess she really doesn''t care.

    "Okay, fight now." [Leon]

    "Huh?" [Solace]

    With a flick of the wrist, a dagger flew at me.

    "Really?!" [Solace]

    I tilted my head and evaded it. It wasn''t very difficult to do since it''s not the first time she''s done this.

    ("At least I know I can beat her.") [Solace]

    Leon proceeded to throw a few more knives before closing the gap between us. Of course, I easily dealt with the projectiles via dodging or deflecting.

    "|Lightweight|." [Leon]

    She suddenly sped up. So much so I couldn''t react to her placing a hand onto my chest.

    "|Thundering Palm|" [Leon]

    I felt a mix of force and electricity apply itself onto me. Needless to say, it hurt.

    "Urgh!" [Solace]

    "Alert: |Shock Resistance| has activated." [Spirit Guide]

    The force behind the blow pushed me back, but Leon had other plans.

    "|Flux|." [Leon]

    With just an utterance of a word, I felt an invisible pull towards her.

    "This is new!" [Solace]

    As I started to float towards her, Leon took on this menacing martial arts stance.

    ("Oh, I definitely don''t want to get hit by that.") [Solace]

    "|Earthen Shield| |Reinforce|!" [Solace]

    I summoned a rock wall between us and strengthened it.

    "|Hardened Body Arts: Steady Mountain|." [Leon]

    I heard a loud slam against my rock wall, followed by a fist and elbow sticking out of it.

    "Yikes." [Solace]

    ("Good thing it wasn''t me.") [Solace]

    I then witnessed the chunk of rock lift off the ground.

    "Eh...?" [Solace]

    Like Master, like disciple. Leon chucked it at me.

    "|Blazing Fist|!" [Solace]

    Setting my hand ablaze, I blasted the rocky wall to bits.

    ("Can''t believe I had to break my own wall. What a waste of mana.") [Solace]

    I readied myself for Leon, but she was nowhere to be seen.

    "|Imbue Alarm|." [Solace]

    I wasn''t going to make the same mistake as with Raon.

    ("There!" [Solace]

    I detected something behind me. Which was weird, because the alarm rang again from above me.

    ("Two?!") [Solace]

    As I quickly tried to grasp the situation, two Leons appeared.

    ("Cloning?!") [Solace]

    From pure reflex, I swung at one of her.

    "Huh?" [Solace]

    My hand phased through her until I ate a knuckle sandwich from the other Leon.

    "Ack!" [Solace]

    I spun my body to let the punch slide off my face.

    "|Explosion Arts|!" [Solace]

    As I carried momentum into my punch, Leon kicked my funny bone.

    "Ow?! The hell?!" [Solace]

    I felt the energy leave my body as the pain took over.

    "|Four Armed Enlightenment|." [Leon]

    Just as the name described, she now had four arms. In which, she used all four arms to throw knives at me.

    "You know they don''t work on me!" [Solace]

    I rushed in like, you know, an idiot. Turns out, these knives were different. They were cloaked in mana, capable of cutting me like I was a normal person.

    "Ouch?!" [Solace]

    The knives dug deep. After realizing the knives could harm me, I did my best to evade or deflect them.

    ("You''re kidding!") [Solace]

    I still was hit with around four to five knives. They were stuck into me, which surprisingly didn''t hurt as bad as I thought it would.

    "You should forfeit." [Leon]

    She wore her usual indifferent expression, which made me feel like I was being looked down upon.

    "Why''s that?" [Solace]

    Leon looked me up and down.

    "...You''re injured." [Leon]

    As I thought of a good comeback, I smirked.

    "And?" [Solace]

    I then did what would be unthinkable back on Earth. Pulling out sharp objects and not waiting for help. One by one, I pulled out the knives.

    "...What are you doing?" [Leon]

    I didn''t reply. Instead, I placed a hand over my wounds.

    "|Small Cure|." [Solace]

    One was enough to stop the bleeding.

    "|Small Cure|." [Solace]

    Two was enough to close the wound, although it still risked being reopened.

    "|Small Cure|." [Solace]

    Three finally managed to bring me back to peak condition.

    "Alright." [Solace]

    I checked myself for any more wounds before wagging a finger at Leon.

    "Run it back." [Solace]
