Arcane: Champion Witness System

"Oh! So you're asking who I am?" "That's a good question, my friend!" He stood before her, spat out the yellow sand from his mouth, raised both hands shoulder-high, and proudly proclaimed, "I am a big shot in Zaun's Undercity, the ninth councilor of Piltover. I am the honored hero of Bilgewater." "What have I done?" "I once set fire to the Petricite Grove in Demacia and competed in height with the Yordles in Bandle City." "..." Standing in front of her, he spoke confidently. "And now, I've encountered you in the swirling sands of Shurima." "Alright, lady, I've said my piece. Could you please put away your weapon now?" ////This is a translation, I do not own this story or any character in it.

-149- Linwin VS Fiora

At this moment, Vi has already stood beside Ekko, extending her arm around his shoulder. Vi confidently watches the stage, and Lux notices her expression.

"You're not worried about him?" Lux inquires, observing Vi's expression.

"Worried about what?" Vi retorts, "Worried that my brother will lose? Guest from Demacia, you really are overthinking it."

Vi waves off Lux's concerns.

After Linwin assured her with a comforting gesture, Vi has no worries about Linwin. Though she enjoys bantering with him, Vi trusts Linwin unconditionally.

"Instead of worrying about Linwin, Demacian, you better be ready to console Fiora later," Vi playfully says, "I can feel it; she's as proud as I am. People like us value dignity more than anything. So, get ready to comfort her after this."

"She's going to be shaken."

Vi already knows Lux's identity as a noble from a powerful Demacian family. However, Vi and Powder are also considered the young ladies in Zaun after Vander's rise. So, talking with Lux feels quite relaxed.

Lux sniffles and nods but doesn't respond to Vi's words.

Lux understands Fiora very well.

In the military, Fiora may not be the strongest, but in the dueling arena, on the stage, Fiora is a monster.

She is the strongest!

In just thirty more matches, Fiora will achieve the incredible feat of a hundred consecutive victories in duels.

Meanwhile, on the stage, Linwin raises the wooden stick, calmly watching Fiora.

On the opposing side, Fiora's eyes flash with determination. She places her feet together, turns her body toward Linwin, and slowly lifts the short stick. With a graceful posture, Fiora points the stick diagonally at Linwin.

In this moment, Fiora refrains from engaging in verbal banter, unlike when facing Vi. She is fully aware that when Linwin picks up the sword, she might taste her first defeat.

He is very strong, perhaps even stronger than Marshal Tianna, at least in swordsmanship.

The pressure Linwin brings is greater than Tianna, and because of this, Fiora concentrates her attention.

She cannot afford to lose.

"Come, Fiora."

Linwin raised his wooden stick, provoking Fiora.

"Then, here I come, Councilor Linwin."

Fiora took a deep breath, rushed forward, and concealed the short stick in her tilted body. In the moment close to Linwin, Fiora instantly swung her right hand upward. Her left hand supported the short stick from behind, and with both hands, she thrust the short stick towards Linwin's ribcage.

Dealing with tall males requires targeting the chest or limbs. While a direct stab to the face could cause the most significant damage, it's also prone to exposing vulnerabilities. The need to jump or raise the arms in such actions makes it challenging to defend against the opponent's attacks.

This is Fiora's consistent starting move when facing tall and powerful opponents in Demacia.

Looking down, Fiora keeps a close eye on Linwin's footwork.

"You're fast," Linwin admires.

It's sincere admiration.

As a human, Fiora is undoubtedly unmatched in speed.

However, Linwin is no longer just a human.

After obtaining Kaisa's card, Linwin's speed has surpassed his previous limits. His agility is now at a level equal to his intelligence – 600.

In Linwin's eyes, Fiora's actions, though swift, appear slowed down, as if time has been stretched. He takes a small step backward, lowers his right hand, and positions the short stick horizontally in front of his chest.

"Bang!"

The two sticks collide, producing a dull impact sound. Fiora keeps a keen eye on Linwin's feet, adapting swiftly as he steps back.

Right hand spinning, Fiora raises her hand, looping her short stick around Linwin's short stick. Then, Fiora slightly rotates her body, attempting to bring down the short stick and stab Linwin in the kidney.

"Thud!"

Linwin merely moves his hand, lifting it gently to once again block Fiora's attack with the short stick.

He knocks Fiora back and, watching her retreat several steps, Linwin advances with the short stick, approaching her.

As he gets closer, he swings his right hand down.

The short stick, with a heavy force, smashes towards Fiora.

At this moment, Linwin uses the stick more like a hammer than a sword!

He's smashing towards Fiora!

Fiora notices the powerful strike from Linwin. A red light flashes in her pupils.

Her eyes, with a mix of blue and red, look eerie. In the next moment, Fiora surprisingly dodges Linwin's attack using a peculiar posture.

"Huh?"

Standing still, Linwin utters a surprised sound.

However, quickly adjusting, he flicks his wrist, turning the attack from a smash into a sweep, aiming to the left.

"Ugh!"

Fiora emits a muffled groan as Linwin's short stick sweeps across her waist.

But as Linwin strikes Fiora, he instantly eases up on the force. Otherwise, with this one blow, he could have fractured Fiora's spine.

Strangely, to observers like Vi and Ekko, it looked as if Linwin had swept the stick, and Fiora had run into it herself.

What's going on? Only Linwin knows.

If Linwin hadn't reacted quickly, changing his attack, Fiora not only would have evaded the strike but also found an opportunity to counterattack Linwin.

She had circled into Linwin's blind spot.

Contrary to Linwin's surprise, Fiora is shocked.

"Fiora, can you predict the future?"

"Hm, no..." Linwin asks, then shook his head.

Having the ability to foresee the future is not unique. Shurima, Freljord, even Zaun have individuals with this ability. Even Ekko, who can control time in a limited range, can be considered a form of foreseeing the future.

However, Fiora, the Grand Duelist, cannot possess such an ability.

So, what is going on?

Linwin's curiosity is piqued.

Being a hero in the game surely means having characteristics beyond ordinary people. Even weaker individuals like Twisted Fate and Graves have their own unique traits.

Graves has good luck, always turning danger into fortune, while Twisted Fate possesses unique card magic and incredibly powerful teleportation magic.

Vi has extraordinary talent in brawling, and Powder turns out to be a prodigious weapons expert!

In summary, each hero has their own traits.

And Fiora, the Grand Duelist...

Repeated attacks are aimed at Fiora, and Linwin keeps increasing his speed. However, even with that, Fiora keeps evading with seemingly preternatural precision.

It's like she knows where Linwin will strike.

Linwin notices a red light flashing in Fiora's eyes, resembling a small sword pattern.

Linwin finds it amusing.

He starts to guess Fiora's characteristic.

Doesn't this seem like Fiora's passive?

Being able to observe the enemy's vulnerabilities with the naked eye and then create a critical hit?

So this is the Duelist's Dance, huh?

"Fiora, I'll be more serious now."

Although not fully grown yet, the current Fiora already possesses the strength comparable to Camille. Therefore, if Linwin doesn't take it seriously, he might not be able to crush Fiora completely.

Seeing this, Linwin raises the wooden stick, earnestly addressing Fiora, "Fiora, please pay attention."

Fiora stands up straight, breathing heavily, her cheeks flushed, but she calmly nods. Closing her legs, she places the short stick in front of her. Excitement is evident in Fiora's eyes. She speaks in a deep voice, "Come, Sir Linwin."

At this moment, Fiora no longer addresses Linwin as "Councilor Linwin."

Instead, it's "Sir Linwin."

She acknowledges Linwin's strength!

Therefore, she respects Linwin.

Because Linwin is the opponent Fiora has been longing for.

"Here I come."

As Linwin's words fell, he appeared above Fiora's side, and the short stick created afterimages, rapidly chopping down towards Fiora's neck.

A storm wrapped around the short stick, driving it downward. Although Linwin controlled the force of this strike, those outside the arena could still feel the pressure.

A gust of wind pressed down from Linwin's body, then spread from Fiora to all directions.

Instantly, everyone in the arena subconsciously raised their hands to block the oncoming wind.

"Ah!"

Lux saw Linwin disappear and reappear above Fiora. She exclaimed, shocked.

She... she didn't even see what happened!

Too fast!

How can Councilor Linwin be so fast?

This... This speed is much faster than Fiora's!

No, even her aunt can't compare to him!

Despite being a powerful mage, facing a swordsman with such speed in close quarters means surrendering.

What else can you do? If your eyes can't even keep up with his shadow, how can you expect to hit him?

"I'm behind you, Fiora."

Just as Fiora did to Vi earlier, at this moment, Linwin also taunted.

But Fiora didn't care at all.

Facing forward, she spoke softly, "Riposte!"

In an instant, Fiora bent over, took a bowing step forward, and closed her eyes.

Focus, concentrate, concentrate more.

Fiora, you have to concentrate!

Only by concentrating can you see more things.

Fiora, you are my pride!

Her father's words echoed in her ears.

In the moment she opened her eyes, Fiora's eyes were exceptionally bright, and a golden small sword pattern floated in her pupils. She saw something different.

In Fiora's eyes, everything in the world follows a certain order.

And the attack from behind is no exception!

The most famous thing about the Laurent family is not the sword in their hands but the one in their hearts!

This is Riposte!

With Fiora's innate talent and the development of the Laurent family's Riposte to its peak, she is now the strongest in the family and its leader.

Bearing the honor of the Laurent family and the reputation of Demacia, Fiora cannot lose.

"Focus on one point!"

A radiant light shines, and the short stick in Fiora's hand takes on a magical aura. But, it seems not to be magic.

Is it a special rule?

Or is it a magical skill?

Linwin sees Fiora's movements and, seeing her tall figure bending into a bow, is amazed internally, exclaiming, "TF? Isn't that her W?"

Is it real?

In the real world, can Fiora also use W?

You know Fiora's W is an invincible skill in the game!

The storm presses down, and as the wooden stick is about to hit Fiora from behind, Fiora's stick appears in front of Linwin from a mysterious angle. Backhand, Fiora's hand passes through the raging wind, finding a way to counter Linwin's attack.

This move.

What exactly is the principle?

Laws? But even if it's the power of laws, there should be limits.

Because in front of Linwin, Fiora herself is not powerful.

But thinking of Master Yi, thinking of Irelia, Linwin chuckles.

Should be the same principle, right?

From this, it can be seen that powerful martial arts are no less than magic.

Linwin takes a deep breath. Seeing Fiora's move, he no longer hesitates and increases the force in his hand.

At this moment, Linwin exerts 50 percent of his strength.

"Boom!"

In an instant, the platform under Fiora's feet shatters, losing its foothold. This causes her to stagger, but Fiora quickly regains her sense of direction. Stepping on a piece of the flying rock, Fiora shouts loudly and thrusts her stick towards Linwin.

"Lunge!"

////It's her Q, it's Chinese name is more cool, it's something like Skyward slash! But the official English name is Lunge...lol ////
