Frank didn't really want to draw any more attention to themselves other than the ones that the media has given, but it didn't seem that they have a choice.
The features in Olympia dictates that when dueling, you have to be in a specified area. This is to avoid any possible harm or disturbance to the public when it comes to dueling.
Surprisingly, these people are capable of inviting them to a duel wherever they want. This causes complication since Frank really didn't want to involve other people.
Which means now Frank, Hazel and Leo have to fight against four enemies on the side of the road, where a lot of people were watching.
People started to take pictures and record videos. There were mutterings about what was happening, whether this was an event or something else entirely.
"What do they want from us?" Hazel asked worryingly.
"They want us to go with them and meet the Oracle." Frank said. "According to them, it's per the Oracle's request that we are to be taken through duels."
"Why don't we just decline then?" Leo asked.
"Because then they will resort to using force, which is something I would like to avoid." Frank said. "Now get ready and don't underestimate them."
Leo and Hazel nodded. The trio then faced towards their enemies. Above them, hovered their names. Apostle One, Apostle Two, Apostle Three, Apostle Four. Their outfits have changed into what looked like black monk robes, which doesn't change their creepy atmosphere.
"Uh huh," Hazel muttered. "That's not creepy at all."
With the numbers being unfavourable to them, Frank had to be careful when engaging. Overall, the three of them had a solid lineup. Frank is their Tank, Hazel is their Support and Leo would be their damage dealer.
Without any warning, the duel began as Apostle One and Two charged at them, two curved blades on both of their hands. Frank reacted quickly as he readied his shield to absorb the blows.
Unfortunately, both of them were not interested in Frank as they dashed passed him and went straight for Hazel.
Frank was going to use 'Wolf's Challenge' to force them to attack Frank, but he was a bit too late on it.
"Silence!" Apostle Four said as Frank was inflicted with the status debuff of Silence.
Frank gritted his teeth. Silence will not wear of for another eight seconds. "Leo! Help Hazel!"
Leo nodded as he threw some fireballs at Apostle One and Two, both of which dodged Leo's attacks effortlessly.
Frank rushed over to Hazel's side and kept her close to him so they will now have some difficulty to attack her.
Taking down a team's Supports is one of the most basic and crucial tactics in a team duel. Supports are responsible in keeping a team's HP up since everyone is going to be taking damage constantly. By removing the healing from a team, it's like removing the heart of a team. The team's HP will be continuously decreasing and eventually drop to zero.
So these guys were not to be messed around with.
Plus, this was not a good situation for them to be in. With Frank now having to stay close to Hazel, Apostle Three would have no problem in engaging Leo while Apostle One and Two could keep Frank busy.
Even if somehow Frank and Leo can retaliate, Apostle Four will be waiting for them to counter attack and force them on the back foot again.
With just that one move, they had managed to corner Frank and his team without many alternatives.
