Chapter 30: Elliot Clark vs John Clark (1)
Elliot stared at John, who began to laugh even more horribly.
'Whatever happens, he's still someone who awakened four years ago. Maybe his strength isn't much, but he must have learned martial arts or swordplay that can be used using his ability, that will give him a big advantage over me, as I've only had a week since I awaken. But I will avoid, as much as possible, using my class. I must try to beat him with my current strength.'
John's ability is one of the most coveted by the masses because it gives him a clear advantage when fighting and can be used without too many complications. It would be enough to wish for it, and it would activate without further ado.
In that, he had the advantage.
But Elliot's class, that invocation, is much more coveted than any other ability, with a few exceptions. This is because a 1 vs 1 situation is completely reversed, making winning easier. Now, summoners must be careful.
Because as coveted as they are, they are also feared. There are not many Awakened who are summoners, and this is not only because they do not awaken many but also because those who do end up dead very quickly.
That is why showing his summoning in a place with so many people was not the right way to fight this duel.
He needed to win with his own strength and cunning if he could.
That's why he didn't take out his knife to fight. He didn't know how to fight with it and only used it to kill because it was relatively easier than using his fists, but if he wanted to use all his current strength, he needed to do it using the martial art he trained in.
