Chương 360: The end of the first Semi-final match

Lara and Valdel's battle grew even more intense. Even with Valdel using a wooden sword and Lara using her bare fists, their bodies were full of scratches and bruises. If both of them had their real equipment they would've been severely injured. 

"Isn't it about time we end this?" Valdel asked as he lowered his sword hand. 

"Hmph, how funny for you to say that... Do you think I'm a fool? Even though we have fought numerous times and it would seem that you did go all out in every fight, but I know the truth. Ren has told me a lot about your special physique. If you truly wanted to win fate would never allow for you to be defeated. The only ones who could best you if you truly tried are those that can defy fate itself." 

When Lara said those words the two of them could clearly picture Ren's face in their minds. The only person they knew of who could laugh at fate and crush it under his hand was that person who smiled ever viciously as he laughed against the odds.
