"Tch," Eli clicked her tongue in annoyance.


    Eli had noticed utz presence in the middle of the farce. But she had ignored him only to attack himter.


    She had mistook utz for yet another pervert having fun ogling at her. So what if her powers work in an entric way? That doesn''t give anyone the right to make fun of her!


    She had killed many like these before. After all, how hard was it for her to kill these perverts? For utz too, she thought it would have been an easy kill but s she was wrong.


    In all of this, she had made a mistake. She chose to point her sword at utz and this would be probably costing her life.


    She was confident in her skills. She had killed many before which also included ability users. But such confident victories made her overconfident with her skills. She had chosen the wrong enemy this time around.


    But utz was not overpowered in this situation either. This was the first time since he had been reborn that utz had entered the battle without calcting the odds. While he got to know a lot of things, he had yet topletely analyze this girl.


    ''Well, I can collect information during the match itself.''


    utz brandished his sword and leapt at the naked girl. The girl who hadn''t expected such a speedy response shot her eyes wide.


    *poof*


    The girl disappeared into a puff of smoke but utz didn''t shed against thin air either. He shed across a stuffed wolf shing it apart into two. utz raised his brows as he saw the cotton of the toy spilling out.


    ''Was this always behind me all along? Tch, I should have noticed sooner.'' The girl can only teleport wherever her toy was, that meant this one too was somewhere hidden behind utz.


    "Just how many of them has she kept hidden around here?" utzined as his pupils moved around thinking of the numerous possibilities.


    "Tch," Eli clicked her tongue as she squeezed the doll tighter as she took her stance. She had teleported herself below back at her previous location.


    utz leapt towards her as he made several flips in air to break his momentum.


    *ng*


    The swords shed as their eyes stared at each other. Her green pupils had the reflection of utz''s face. But there was something in those eyes… something that sucked utz in… something that was his worst nightmare.


    "What the...!!!"


    utz''s hands shook as his whole body froze to ce. He was pushed back by Eli''s sword.


    Sweat poured from his forehead as he was stuck with anxiety. Never before had anyone seen him in such a state. His face had turned ashen, his hands were mmy and there was a visible trembling of his chin.


    Even Eli knitted her brows wondering why was utz in such a state. But she didn''t hold back. She had no pity for the man. The girl attacked utz who could barely deflect her attack with his sword in time as he was struck back to reality.


    "What was that?" utz couldn''t help but ask as he shook his head violently to gain his sanity. It was like his body had gone out of his control. He made a back flip to gain some distance from the girl and think it out.


    "Whatever, after I kill her there would be no need to know!" If it is the eyes that were affecting utz he could easily fight without needing to look at them. But the problem was her teleportation. utz had no idea how many of these dolls were hidden in the forest.


    But one thing was certain, after this utz was even morepelled to kill her. Her eyes were some kind of variable to him and utz certainly hates unknown variables. It always disrupts his calctions!


    utz took a deep breath as he focused his attention on his sword. He loosened his grip as he held the ck spirit sword in front of him.


    There is a popr kenjutsu ninjas had developed to adapt to the world of Hell. Since strength in this world depends on one''s stats, a means to gauge those very stats was important. That is where this kenjutsues in. It was what they called the Detection Jutsu.


    Ninjas use their loosely held sword closing off all their senses to receive the opponent''s attack and let the attack flow through their muscles. Depending on the ripples and force felt by their muscles they can predict the opponent''s strength stat as long as the difference is not toorge.


    utz was using that same move.


    Eli charged at utz without knowing a thing as she found him defenseless with his eyes closed. To use this gauging technique one had to block off his senses and focus only on the strength of the attack.


    *ng*


    The swords shed but soon utz''s sword was pushed back. utz who knew this beforehand dodged in time neglecting any damage. As he opened his eyes the girl''s frowning face came to his view.


    ''Her strength stat is in the 30s,'' utz deduced. A 30 strength stat was no joke. It meant 3 times stronger than the average male. But utz was fairly stronger as he was now close to reaching 50.


    utz went for a second series of shes but he greatly held back his strength to not scare off the girl. He didn''t want her to escape with her teleportation skill.


    *Poof*


    The girl disappeared again and leapt from behind. utz didn''t even turn back to swing his swords backwards and block her charge.


    *sh*


    ''It''s one hell of an annoying skill. You can never be sure from the where the next attack wille in. She is not strong enough to be a threat but her skill makes her resilient like a cockroach.''
