Drip, drip, drip.
Affected by the sphere of light Nameless held aloft, a rain cloud gradually formed around it in the distance.
Rain began to fall in a fine drizzle, bringing a trace of coolness to the desert. But at the outermost edges, affected by the distant sphere of light, the rain evaporated the instant it fell, gradually forming a vast expanse of steam.
Heaven's Reckoner did not hurry to act. He was waiting for Nameless to reach his limit.
He saw through Nameless's intentions, and he knew Nameless knew he had seen through them. It could even be taken another step further: he and Nameless both knew when the other would make a move, and knew that the other knew it too.
But who would come out on top was hard to say.
Heaven's Reckoner was very confident. He did not believe he would be the loser, because Nameless's luck had already been affected by misfortune, while his own luck had gained the upper hand.
The next attack would be Nameless's death sentence.
Suddenly, Heaven's Reckoner's eyes flew wide open and every hair on his body stood on end. In a flash, he fired the Fortune-Calamity Treasure Coin at Nameless. At the same time, Nameless reached his limit and decisively hurled the sphere of light toward the ground.
They acted at exactly the same moment, and what followed was much the same.
After firing the Fortune-Calamity Treasure Coin, Heaven's Reckoner immediately turned and ran without a word. The formation could no longer protect him, so he did not mind exposing himself.
After throwing the sphere of light, Nameless immediately twisted his body. To his surprise, the coin split into two in midair, then came at both his temples from different directions along unimaginable trajectories.
Was this a cheat?
