As soon as Emir arrived close enough to him, Leo immediately put his hand forward and cast the Magic spell he had prepared.

Seeing this, Emir said with a sneer, "Do you really think I'd fall for the same Vine spell trap like Dominic?!"

"Not really," Leo muttered under his breath before quickly casting, "Earth Wall!"

Whoooosh!

Instantly, a tall earth wall appeared, blocking the way for Emir to reach Guild Leader Loki. 

"How ridiculous! Do you think a mere wall can block me from reaching you, Guild Leader Loki?" Emir mocked as he went to the side only to find that Guild Leader Loki had disappeared without any trace. Shocked, he asked in a panic, "Where... where did he go....?"

Looking around his surroundings, even prompting himself to look around the earth wall despite how hilarious he looked with his action, he was still unable to find Guild Leader Loki in the end. 

Unlike Emir, though, everyone was able to see where Guild Leader Loki was right now. Guild Leader Loki is at place that Emir didn't try to look or didn't think of looking due to how conspicuous the place was, specifically on top of the earth wall. 

At this moment, Leo is on top of the earth wall as he silently watch Emir as if like a Mischievous Lion playing with his prey while wearing their signature mischievous smile on his face. 

As a trained assassin, it isn't strange for Leo to move from one place to another without making any sound, that is, as long as the distance he wanted to go is not far away. 

What happened was, back then, after casting an Earth Wall spell, he immediately jumped on top of it at the same time as Emir looked behind the earth wall, thus allowing him to avoid his detection and not leaving a single trace behind. 

"How is he doing that?" Elmont asked Osborne by his side. 

"I am clueless of the answer as well," Osborne responded. 

"I can't help but doubt if there is really any chance for us to win the fifth game of the Emerald Elven Battle against an opponent like Guild Leader Loki?" Edgar Pierce can't help himself from asking. 

"I am afraid to say, but there should only at most a thirty percent chance for us to win. Not to mention, I reckon that he hasn't revealed all of his capability to us yet," Eme Clarity assumed. 

"Well, we also haven't revealed all of our capabilities yet," Elmont objected. 

"Yeah, we haven't yet. But let me remind you, we mostly rely on our weapons when fighting, not our skills. Look at Guild Leader Loki. He doesn't even need a weapon to perform such a stunt, so how can we compare to him," Eme Clarity clarified things. 

"Well, not me," Edgar Pierce quickly stepped back. 

"Me neither," Elmont also denies Eme Clarity's opinion. 

"Regardless of how good Guild Leader Loki's capabilities are, in the face of great strength, it would still crumble and fall like nothing," Osborne confidently proclaimed. 

"Well, I guess you're all correct. But, that still doesn't change the fact that we should be careful when facing against Guild Leader Loki in the fifth game of the Emerald Elven Battle Competition, lest we get played like Emir," Eme Clarity awkwardly said. 

"Let's just continue watching," Elmont changed the topic. 

Time continued to pass, but even after a minute or so of searching for Guild Leader Loki's whereabouts, Emir was still unable to find him. 

"Where the hell are you?! Come out and show yourself, you coward!" Emir yelled out loudly, hoping to make Guild Leader Loki reveal himself. 

Leo completely ignored Emir as he continued setting up his trap inconspicuously using Vine spells. As of now, he had already surrounded Emir with a lot of vines unnoticed. 

Not long after, Leo was finally done with his trap. Standing up on top of the earth wall, he calmly said, "I didn't expect that you'd actually be this stupid, Emir. How disappointing! You are totally undeserving of the title of a genius from the Cross Blade Guild," 

Instantly, Emir froze on the spot, completely rendered disbelief by where Guild Leader Loki's voice was coming from. Slowly, he turned his head above him. And just like what he had thought, the person he was looking for was standing on top of the earth wall while looking down at him. Stuttering, he asked, "How... how long have you... you been staying there... there...?"

"I've been staying here all this time while watching you make a fool of your own self," Leo replied without holding anything back.

"Impos... Impossible! This... You are lying to me! How the fuck could you be there all this time?!" Emir really doesn't want to accept Guild Leader Loki's words to be the truth. Because if he does that, then that would be the same as admiting that he is indeed a fool. 

"Then what do you prefer to believe, then? Do you perhaps want to believe that I was behind you all along, following in total silence? Or that I was hiding within the snow? Because if that's the case, simply calling you blind would be a total understatement for you. Instead, you should be called having no vision," Leo expressed his thoughts. 

"Having... Having no vision? Doesn't the two meant the same?" Emir asked in doubt. 

"Of course not!" Leo shook his head before explaining, "Being blind meant that you absolutely have no sense of sight. In other words, you can't see anything. But having no vision meant that you have a pair of eyes that could still see clearly well, but in spite of that, you still can't find what or who you are looking for," 

Hearing Guild Leader Loki's insult, Emir immediately lost everything. He roared loudly in rage as he put, not only a lot of force into his sword, but also Mana as well, thus making his attack akin to a Magic spell, or otherwise can also be called as a Magic attack, "Die, you arrogant bastard!"

Whoooosh! Whoooosh! Whoooosh! 

Before Emir could even react, dozens of sharp vines suddenly sprung out of the ground and came straight towards his body. The dozens of vines easily penetrated through his armor first and arrived on his skin in the following moment. Unlike his armor, his skin is just too soft for it to try and block the sharp vines. Hence, it didn't stand any chance to defend, thus allowing the sharp vines to get inside his body and right after coming out from the other side. 

The scene that everyone saw was Emir getting impaled with a dozens of sharp vines from many different angles. His figure was in a standstill right at the center, holding his weapon and raising it up, with rage still apparent in his eyes, albeit drained out of any signs of life compared to just a second ago.
