The crowd looked at Corey dumbfoundedly. Especially, Joe"s goons. Their entire plan worked on the fact that Corey was a low-level card master with a third-rate card set and had no chance of winning against a card grandmaster with a first-rate card set. But seeing Corey being able to subdue Joe without relying on her grimoire and cards, they were starting to see that their plan was not as flawless as they thought. Now that they had reached this point all of them looked at Agatha from the corner of their eyes only to find that she was monitoring them too. It seems there was nothing they could do unless they were willing to risk their lives to save their young master Joe.
Aba too was no less astonished than the Hill family goons, because she thought since both she and Corey were in the card master realm they were equally strong, maybe she was even stronger because of her higher grade card set but it turns out that she had mistaken. It turns out that psycho was way stronger than her. As a card apprentice, Aba had fought her share of card duels, and witnessing Corey"s attack she knew that if she were in Joe"s place even she could not defend against it. She might even be seriously injured and rendered unfit to continue the duel. Realizing this Aba clenched her fist as a fiery compet.i.tive spirit ignited in her heart.
Compared to others, only two people understood what Corey just did. They were none other than Agatha and Laura. As a semi-demiG.o.d, it would be a shame on Agatha"s part if she were not able to see through Corey"s attack. As for Laura, she too had achieved something similar to what Corey had achieved in body arts concerning sword arts, it was none other than Sage-Level mastery.
"Sage-level body arts," Laura muttered looking at Corey who was looking at Joe who got back on his feet with difficulty. As a martial artist who had achieved sage-level mastery in sword arts, Laura would not be worthy of her achievements if she could not see that Corey had achieved sage-level mastery in her body arts. Laura looked at Corey with a crazed gaze, she could not wait to test her martial achievements against Corey"s.

"I was wrong, it seems you can take a beating or two," Corey said looking at Joe hurriedly got back on his feet and chanted, "Item card: A-rank gravity sword."
Soon a grey-colored heavy broad sword appeared in Joe"s hands, tightening his grasp on its hilt Joe activated a skill card, "A-rank Sword Intent." soon an invisible but sharp aura covered the heavy broad sword.
It seems Joe no longer cared if Corey summoned her grimoire or not, he ditched all that bull carp about honor and principles once his last resort activated right at the start of the duel. The shield made by golden light was Joe"s last resort pa.s.sive card which activates in case of imminent danger to the user"s life. Since it activated then it meant that Corey"s attack was just now enough to kill him.
It was never a good sign that this card activated at the start of the duel. Therefore Joe who loved himself more than anyone else no longer cared about how Aba perceived him and instead decided to go all out to save his miserable life. If you wondering if Joe regretted his actions? Yes, he regretted it all. Mostly not killing the commoner b.i.t.c.h after a.s.saulting her. As she was the originator of all his recent misfortune.
Seeing Joe summon a sword and activate a sword skill, his goons slapped their heads in distress. Seeing how Corey was very quick and packed serious damage, so shouldn"t he be focusing on increasing his defense, just in case he doesn"t get killed even before he can swing his sword?
"Here I come," Corey said seeing that Joe had completed his preparation. Then she dashed toward Joe and arriving next to him she kicked aiming at his waist but it was blocked by Joe using his heavy broad sword.
*Clank*
Kicking the heavy broad sword Corey felt like she was kicking a mountain, it appears the word gravity in the name of the sword was not just for show. Still, Joe was pushed backward by the force of Corey"s kick. However, Corey"s shoe, which came in contact with Joe"s sword had a deep cut on it, this must be due to sword intent covering the sword.
However, those who were spectating the duel knew that was not Joe who used his sword to block Corey"s attack but it was his Sword that guided and moved Joe to block Corey"s kick. Seeing this Laura blurted out loud, "Sword Spirit!"
"..." Joe"s goons were dumbfounded seeing that Joe"s gravity sword had sword spirit, they finally saw a chance of Joe winning the duel. All hope was not lost for them.
"Sword spirit?" Susan asked as she was not that familiar with high-level cards, especially sword-related cards.
"Sword spirit is the spirit of the sword. It has a mind of its own. Sword spirits are very adept in the way of swords. Just equipping a sword with sword spirit will increase the mastery of the user"s sword-related skill card. Item cards with spirits are very expensive, but also equally rare, therefore you cannot find them in the market," Aba explained erasing the confusion in Susan"s mind.
Seeing that activating the sword spirit by feeding sword intent to the gravity sword was still not a match for Corey. Joe"s expression became hideous, the sword spirit enhanced by sword intent was his ace, so seeing that its damage was nowhere near close to that of Corey"s simple kick he could not help but feel desperate. This duel was no longer about impressing Aba Windsor but his life, if lose the battle then his life and death will be in the feisty girl"s hand. With the presence of Agatha, his aid could not come to his rescue nor could his family which was far away in the central capital. So, resolved his mind and chanted, "Sacrifice card Sword intent to Gravity sword."
