-Order of Light Arena-

Panthie shot her powerful arrow that has the power of Panther's Queen!

*SWOOOOSH!* The arrow flew towards Elou with full force! It's not only just an arrow but the power of the wind and the devastating force can already be seen in that arrow! How can he defend from the attack while he is being surrounded by the Panthers?!

"ROOOOOAR ROOOAR!" Even the Panthers also charged at him and tried to attack him to finish him off!

Ugh! I can already feel that he is going to take this seriously! His aura changed and his body started to shine! Is he activating his monster's soul? Well, that's the only reason why I can feel it this way and also the only way to avoid the attackers.

"GARUDA BEAST'S WRATH!" A Garuda Beast! Holy crap! That is also a Rare Boss! Where could he possibly defeat that by himself?

(GARUDA BEAST / BOSS RANK: B

- A wingless beast that has the speed and power to annihilate enemies using brute force. It's said that with its wind power, it can jump as high as a winged Garuda can.)

His leather armor changed into more defensive armor but also not that heavy to reduce his movement speed. His eyes and weapon also changed into the color of gold which I guess came from the Garuda's features. You can feel the power from him!

Garuda Beast is different from regular Garuda. A normal Garuda is a flying wyvern type boss that has the power to annihilate enemies with its pure brute force with the additional power from its flying abilities but this time, he got the Garuda Beast that lacks the flight ability but has better fighting abilities when on land. Garuda Beast doesn't have wings so it relies on its speed on land to pulverize enemies.

Before the Panthers reach him, he released a powerful wave after transforming into his Monster's Soul form! Panthie, who's still above, was also surprised by the transformation.

"GARUDA BEAST'S RAZOR ARROW BURST!" He also shot a fast arrow to stop Panthie's powerful attack!

*BAAAAAAM! SWOOOOOSH!* Elou's attack didn't just stop Panthie's attack but also broke it and his attack still flew towards Panthie! The force of his attack came from the brute power of the Garuda! Unlike Panthers' Queen whose power relies on its dexterity and agility, Garuda Beast boost his strength a lot so his bow drawing ability improved dramatically which boosts the arrow's damage!

"Uggh!" Panthie got hit by the arrow beside her hips! It was a solid hit!

She fell from above after getting hit and tried to regain her posture to get back to her feet, but her wound is really bad. If she continues to fight she might get killed.

"People of New Life Online! The tides of battle have been changed! Elou is having the upper hand now instead of Panthie! Did he just test out Panthie's abilities? Is he going to defeat Panthie this time?!" Aika is really getting excited and worried for Panthie at the same time.

"GARUDA BEAST'S ROAR BARRAGE!" Fast draw shots were fired multiple times that flew towards Panthie! He's really going for the kill! He may be at his last breath too so he focused all he has left and decided to use it all at once to defeat Panthie!

"PANTHER QUEEN'S PIERCING ROAR!" She shot a fast revolving arrow that has a silent sound that even the wind got pierced by it to counter Elou's ultimate attack!

*BAAAAAM! SWOOOSH! SWOOOSH!* Her final attack pierced some of the arrows of Elou but it wasn't enough to stop all of it! She got hit by the arrows multiple times and there's no way she can even fight back now.

*WOOOOSH!* Her armor disappeared and her monster's soul got canceled. That means she used all of her mana and almost dead. Her pride is keeping her alive. One of the Gods is being defeated by one of the members of the infamous party. Her Panthers were also disappeared after her aura is gone.

"Panthie, let's stop this. I really don't want to kill you. Let me be your friend and let's try again next time. This is only our first match and I'll be looking forward to more." Elou tried to make Panthie surrender to end the fight without killing her.

She really can't fight anymore and there's no reason to continue fighting. This is not about her pride but Elou's kindness. His sincerity caught Panthie's heart and decided to surrender. She might be a snob type of girl but she also knows what's important and accepts her defeat. Elou, can really be something.

"The winner is Elou, The Blonde Robin Hood!" Aika announced the winner of the first match of the fourth round.

"WOOOH! Elou, you are such a gentleman! Be my brother! Be my Husband! WOOOH!" Random cheers and shouts can be heard from the crowds. After that, he returned to our seats while Lili heals him. For some reason, I'm really getting jealous of his fans...

"Congrats Elou. You got my respect from that fight. You really were awesome. I hope we really can fight in the tournament." I congratulated him on winning.

"Yay! Elou you won! You were really cool down there, being a gentleman. Congrats!" Akko also said her congratulations.

"Good job..." Lili also tried her best to comment but at least she tried.

"I just got Lucky. Haha. I thought I'm going to lose right at the last part of the battle but I was able to transform. That was my first time transforming in battle too. I haven't tested it out yet but thank God it worked well." What the? It's his first time to use it? He was really awesome out there. If he can control his power more, I'm pretty sure I will be having a hard time fighting him later on.

"The first fight of the fourth round was really awesome guys! I hope we can watch more of it later! The next match is between Scythus, the infamous murderer versus Lionidus, the leader of the infamous Wild Lion Bandits! The fight is between both villains! Who will win?! We will find out soon!" Really? Is that how you address someone who fought and defeated one of the strongest players all over the New Life Online? Though Wild Lion Bandits sounds familiar...

(LEONIDUS/ DEFENDER: B

EQUIPMENT:

LION SWORD(HIGH CLASS WEAPON MADE OF IRON. GOOD PHYSICAL DAMAGE)

LION ARMOR SET (HIGH DEF AND LOW MAGIC RESISTANCE)

LION TOWER SHIED (HIGH DEF WITH WIDER BLOCKING.)

MASTERIES:

HIGH-RANK NORMAL WEAPON

HIGH-RANK SHIELD MASTERY)

We both entered the arena to prepare for the fight. He seems to be pissed off by something I'm not aware of. His armor and shield really look familiar. I might have met him in one of the places around here or maybe at the elimination round...

"READY, FIGHT!" Aika signaled the start of the fight.
