A clash was about to take place near the end of the third floor, the trap floor.

One person dressed in black robes, glowing ghostly green light was facing against three knights who were paid to help the larger mob destroyed by the dark one earlier. 

The situation was a double stale mate since both parties stood in the middle of a massive trap floor without any means of escape besides taking each others down and use the bodies as triggers, just like Hael did before with the mob. 

-It was time to put these athletes to a test, 

Hael thought. 

-They made it this far with just the three of them so they need to be good for something... 

Their weapons consisted of pretty stylish looking one hand sword and a clean shield. As their gear, it was from left to right, golden armor, silver armor, and finally a platinum armor. Pretty basic. Hael could see through the steel that it was thin and came with more paddings than actual protective capability. 

...Still that being said they did indeed seem well made. It just might be that those armor were their standard clothing given by the game... Wow... Their influence really carried on from the old world... Thank god I was given a change to put a stop to it...

Hael pondered to himself.

Regarding that, It was the first time he could draw both of his weapons in PvP too. Though angry, he also was a exited about the enemies. 

...

All three of them stayed still. The perfect humans indeed. They would never land the first blow, but after getting attacked they would trash anyone who tried...

A familiar tone started ringing in his head, the sound of fury. 

Dust formed a circle around his feet as Hael took one more breath... 

"Hold it...Hold it... Now!" 

The dust exploded behind him in all directions as Hael launched himself on the move.

"Lets see what you're made of then! Lets see how I fare against the people I once lost so many times in life! Lets make you pay for your crimes against the shade!"

Hael flew towards the opponents prepared for a glorious battle. 

The enemies had their shields ready as well and stood in a small v- formation, as in the Gold one a little further and two, Platinum and Silver, behind him on both sides. 

Hael made up his tactic as he ran towards the group. The battle instinct.

He pretended to strike the Gold knight at front with right thrust, but fainted it and turned on the right side. 

The Gold knight lost his composure as he took a shaky step forward blocking the air.

Hael continued his movement by spinning and slashing towards the neck of the Silver knight on the right. 

The Platinum knight on the other side was more ready and he didn't allow Haels attack to pass. The knight directed a piercing strike towards him from behind the Gold knight, but Hael blocked his sting with a fast uppercut from the left unhatched, while using the right one to parry the strike the Silver knight. 

Both backfield knights were parried and staggering, but the Gold knight had time to regain his composure. 

He charged for a massive slash, perhaps even a skill of sort, but Hael was faster.

He struck his boot on the feet of the Silver knight, crushing it, which caused him to fall in pain. Right after, using the shattered leg as support, Hael launched himself and flew backwards towards the Gold knight twisting his body mid air to dodge his slash.
