Eric Griffith raised his head and looked at Leonardo with a frown.
"Leonardo…" Eric's expression turned serious as Leonardo was a serious threat to his life. "Since you're going to kill me, let's see whether you can kill me or not."
He clapped his hands as several spikes came out of the ground, piercing Valerie.
Valerie's armor stopped the spikes effortlessly, but the crack on the chest plate became a bit bigger due to one spike hitting on the exact spot.
After that, Valerie slashed all the spikes with her spear before releasing a beam of light toward Eric to hold him back.
Eric extended his hand forward and stopped the beam of light with his Magic Power.
However, this attack was meant to cover Leonardo's attack. Two knights on top of the horses appeared out of thin air and charged forward, thrusting their spear toward Eric's head.
Unlike Valerie, who only relied on herself, Eric's illusion wouldn't work against Leonardo's chess pieces. After all, the pieces had no personality or consciousness as they all were being controlled directly by Leonardo.
Even Eric needed to leap into the air to avoid them.
Suddenly, two torrential lights fell on top of him.
"!!!" Eric used his Magic Power to cover the back of his body, preventing the torrential light from touching him directly.
During the fall, Eric could see two armor holding staves. They were none other than Leonardo's bishops.
However, Leonardo's attack didn't stop here. Eight human-size armor charged forward and encircled Eric before two giant size armor put their shields down.
A barrier was soon erected, trapping Eric inside. The pawns attacked him together from different directions, forcing Eric to use his Magic Saint Fist Style - Burst.
With two of his palms facing two pawns, the Magic Power released by his Control blew the pawns away.
The two pawns hit the shield with their back, and the armor fell to the ground, unable to move.
The gap left by the two pawns became his exit.
Without hesitation, Eric leaped forward and escaped the pawns' encirclement. He then poured his power into the barrier, disintegrating them.
This time, a female armor appeared right in front of him. The armor covered its hand with white light and slapped Eric.
Eric used both hands and the ground to withstand the might of Leonardo's queen. But this queen never meant to be the one to deliver the killing blow.
Since Eric had been stopped, Leonardo finally had the chance to kill him. He stood on the ceiling with the King armor, who had pointed his sword to the queen's hand, planning to pierce the queen's hand to kill Eric.
"Die." Leonardo waved his hand down as the King armor thrust his sword down, releasing a beam of light as though the sword was extended.
The light pierced through the queen's hand and hit Eric. Though, Eric had chosen to throw himself to the side to avoid this beam of light even if it meant to be crushed by the huge hand.
"Bam."
"You're going to die today." Leonardo snorted, looking at Eric coldly.
"Haha, Leonardo. Do you think this can kill me?" Eric laughed uncontrollably as he crushed the giant hand with his Magic Power.
Even Leonardo was forced to move his queen back unless he wanted it to get crushed by Eric's power.
Leonardo landed on the ground near Valerie as if he was prepared to attack Eric together with her.
Eric harrumphed and said, "Even if you are together, you won't be able to kill me today."
"We will see." Valeire snorted, having confidence in Leonardo's strength.
Leonardo smirked as he prepared to charge forward.
As if feeling something weird with Leonardo's sudden appearance, Valerie had a ridiculous thought in her mind.
'Wait. Father shouldn't be this weak! His Grand Chess should be even more aggressive… If it was Father, he should be trying to kick me away from this battle because of my injury. Why does it feel as if Father is trying to buy some time...' Valerie suddenly came to a realization as her body shuddered in fear. She felt the presence behind her, alarming her body as she instinctively threw herself to the side.
*Stab!*
Unfortunately, it was too late. A blade pierced the side of her ribs, missing the heart because of the last movement Valerie took.
"Gah." She spat a mouthful of blood and glanced back.
Her doubt was confirmed when Leonardo disappeared into thin air, proving that he was just a mere illusion. The blade that stuck on her body also vanished, leaving a hole on the side of her chest.
This just meant that Leonardo was fake this whole time. The only reason why Eric made an illusion of Leonardo and fought him for a while was to lower Valerie's guard.
She had never expected that Eric Griffith could create an illusion of Leonardo's power. Still, the most surprising thing was the fact that he could make as if his illusion broke apart even though it didn't.
People would drop their guard when they knew someone who took care of them showed up and fought for them.
Valerie dropped to her knees and coughed a few times before glaring at Eric. "Kh…"
"This is our difference, Valerie. I already told you that no matter how much you struggle, you won't be able to destroy the Griffith Family." Eric snorted and looked down on her.
Valerie felt unwilling, but Eric indeed defeated her without a single injury on his body. In other words, Eric's strength was far beyond her.
"You better kill me or you will regret it." Valerie clenched the spear on her head, ready to swing it the moment Eric moved.
Eric also knew Valerie was faking her weak appearance to pull him in and launch a sneak attack. So, he didn't charge at her. Instead, he took this chance to mock her.
"If only you wait for another two decades. That kid might be able to destroy the Griffith Family." Eric narrowed his eyes.
Valerie gritted her teeth, not saying anything about Theo.
"Whatever. I know that it's too dangerous to leave you alive, so I'm going to kill you here by any means possible.." Eric clasped his hand as his illusion realm started revolving around. He looked at Valerie once again before saying coldly, "Die…"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
Eric Griffith raised his head and looked at Leonardo with a frown.
