As Arthur and Uno were separated from each other and took a brief pause, the people watching the match, who were at the edge of their seats and holding their breaths while watching, finally recovered themselves and burst into an uproar.
"Woah! What an intense battle!"
"That is crazy! More! Give us more!"
"Watching apex experts of the gas is always satisfying!"
The audience at the stand shouted with burning passion and excitent as they looked at the battlefield where Uno and Arthur remained standing opposite to each other while ’resting’. The people watching the live broadcast, on the other hand, flooded the chat with their reactions and emojis that expressed how they felt.
Miss Bunny and David took this opportunity to finally have a little in-depth discussion about the earlier exchange.
"What an amazing start! They live up to their reputation. Don’t you think, partner?" said Miss Bunny initiating the discussion.
"Well, that is to be expected since these two were top Gods of the ga, to begin with," David nodded his head before continuing. "But this is nothing but a warmup. They have only shown us their combat prowess and have yet to reveal the true powers that they were hiding."
"These two Mighty Chosen Ones truly give us a good example of what they can do," he continued with a smile. "But the next bout will absolutely be an even greater show since they will be showing us their more powerful techniques and true skills."
"Mighty Chosen Ones!" Miss Bunny played along. "All people are aware of the Dragon God’s talents. Siegfried is already known to be a Martial Arts Prodigy, who also wields the talent of ’Foresight’. This is what made him famous in the earlier days of his gaming career."
David chuckled as he comnted. "All of us know that a Martial Arts Prodigy has an unbelievable comprehension ability, which gives them the ability to learn things with a glance. But you will later see how scary they can be once they put that talent into combat."
Miss Bunny was quite curious about what he ant by those words, but she wanted to ask more about the opposing party a little more just like the viewers watching online, so she changed the topic accordingly.
"But what about this mysterious Evil God? And how can you tell that he is also a Mighty Chosen One?" she asked with genuine curiosity.
David put up a mystifying act and replied with his great humor. "Let’s just say that it is an expert’s eyes discerning things."
Miss Bunny played along and laughed before continuing. "So, what is his secret?"
David did not mind sharing it with others since they would learn about it sooner or later. What’s more, with this battle being broadcast to millions of audiences, there were would be well-known experts and analysts who would bound to discover it later anyway.
He might as well use this opportunity to beco one of those experts. "Well, one of his talents is quite tricky. But not that complicated. It is called a Thinking Reed."
"Thinking Reed?" hearing the unfamiliar words, Miss Bunny could not help but beco more curious about this.
"It is a combat talent on the sa scale as Martial Arts Prodigy, Sword Genius, Battle Genius, Gifted Adept, and such. But it is not quite well-known since there are very few people who own such a talent," David quickly replied.
"Being a Mighty One is already quite rare. But among them, a Thinking Reed is one of the rarest, which is why not many people are aware of their existence."
"In a sense, they are more like of a Prudent Ace or a Master Potential since their combat talent lies in their brains rather than their physical bodies, unlike the rest."
Miss Bunny beca even more interested in the topic and excited. "That is interesting. So, what makes them special?"
David thought for a mont before answering. "If I were to pick a description, then I would say that they are people who use intuition when thinking about sothing rather than reason. They are also able to think about the necessary answers in all kinds of problems and situations as if it is second nature to them."
Knowing that this is quite a vague description, David gave a much simpler example. "In simple terms, we can say that they are like a Battle Genius. But rather than their bodies gaining experience and improving along with it, it is their brains that evolve after accumulating more knowledge and experience."
"A Battle Genius gains imdiate growth the more they battle, but Thinking Reed goes for a long run. The more their bodies experience sothing, the more their brains grow."
"It is like having a database inside your head, where you can pull out certain answers and solutions after encountering difficult problems and situations that are impossible to escape."
"Along with their special thinking ability, these answers co instantaneously and intuitively," he added.
Hearing this quite lengthy explanation, Miss Bunny, along with their audience in the live broadcast, finally gained a better understanding of this quite unfamiliar combat talent.
After recovering herself, Miss Bunny rembered sothing and asked. "You said that both are Mighty Chosen Ones. Are you saying that this Evil God also possesses a peerless talent like the ’Foresight’ of Seigfried?"
"Of course!" he answered confidently but did not say anything about it and live it to their imagination. "But it will not be exciting if I spoil everything for you. It will be better if you and our friends watch online to discover his peerless talent yourselves."
Miss Bunny played along and asked a few more questions before they proceeded to another topic, where they discussed and explained a few details in the battle that the viewers did not see due to the intense pace of the battle.
But David did not disclose anything about the Natural State since people would not know about it that much. Only those with combat talent or peerless talents could experience such things, particularly the ones who possessed both since they were more sensitive about it.
Of course, there were also a few people who were quite talented enough to create a Natural State of their own, but those people were rarer than Mighty Chosen Ones.
After all, the Natural State seed to be designed by the Heaven for Mighty Chosen Ones or at least individuals with either of the two.
***
Going back to the match, Arthur had finally completed his enlightennt. The mont when he opened his eyes once again, he entered a special state where things seed to be beneath him.
Dragons were pride by nature due to their absolute powers and natural control over the energies of the world. And this nature was deeply engraved in them, which made their descendants to be the sa.
As soone from the Springfield Family, who were so to be descendants of the Solar Dragon, Arthur also had this pride hidden deep within himself.
Even if he was always fooling around and quite easygoing, this pride was still engraved in his bones. His desire to always be at the center of the spotlight might even co from this as it made him proud and satisfied.
In this state that he was in, he felt very powerful and everything that he saw was nothing of importance. But at the sa ti, he felt quite lonely.
But within this loneliness, he strangely felt an absolute silence and tranquility. He was so calm that he could see everything much clearer.
’Natural State: Dragon Solace’
Uno, who was standing on the opposite side, knew that Arthur had successfully entered his Natural State, especially when his eyes could see the flow of energy naturally gathering toward Arthur as if they were attracted to him.
His ’Foresight’ was slightly different from Arthur’s – or should he say that it was in a more perfect state.
Arthur had filled the shortcomings that he could not achieve with his ’Foresight’ by creating the ’Dragon Eyes’ with the help of his bloodline.
On the other hand, Uno could bring out the full capabilities of his ’Foresight’. He could not only read the intention of his opponents by seeing the tiniest movents of their muscles and see the trajectory of their attacks, but he could also read the movents of the energies filling the air.
This not only gave him the ability to read the movents of the opposing party but also predict what kind of abilities or techniques would they be using.
Moreover, he had also reached the partial evolution of this peerless talent because he was inside the ga and turned it into ’Pinnacle Omniscience’ just like Arthur.
From his perspective, the whole world seed to have beco black-and-white while gridlines seed to have filled everything.
In this world, everything seed to have moved differently as their movents filled with a series of overlapping afterimages.
The movents that these images were showing were the predictions that he was seeing after his brain processed all the information inside his head.
In this dull and monochro world, there were specks of lights that were moving with a certain flow. They were the energies of this world – both the elental and arcane mana.
This special sight was an advanced application of ’Foresight’ to complent Uno’s abilities and talent.
At the sa ti, he had entered his Natural State to match Arthur’s, who was now releasing overwhelming powers that could put so pressure even on him.
’Natural State: True Equinox’
The mont he entered this state, an overwhelming pressure enveloped the entire surroundings. Adding the imnse killing intent that he was already releasing and rging them, the pressure that he now possessed was so strong that it even affected the environnt.
The world seed to have turned crimson from the perspective of other people while a sinister atmosphere was created.
This clashed against the pressure that Arthur was emitting, creating invisible ripples that created yet another Mana Storm.
This also intensified the clash between their Battle Spirits. The Ancient Dragon and Void Beast wrestled in the sky as they simultaneously charged at each other.
Bang! Bang!
Swoosh! Swoosh!
This ti, they would be showcasing their true abilities and unleashing all their powers.
