Chapter 19: [Chapter 19] A Fight for Dominance

'Interesting, I got to beat her to a pulp then. Fantastic!' I think as my pupils contract into slits. I look up at the bleachers to see Rasuna and Kasuni watching me, waiting for the fight to start, I hear a "Meow! As I see Winter sitting on Kasuni's lap, trying to cheer me on. Dad walks up onto a pedestal on the side of the arena. "I will be the moderator of this match! Are both sides ready?!" Elva's plastic smile is replaced with a smirk now, "Yes!" I look over and nod at him while getting into a professional runner stance putting all the power I can in my legs, they bulge while veins pulse.

"Begin!" As a ball of fire explodes in the sky. I launch forward, in 3 seconds, I pass fifty feet, then one hundred, then one hundred fifty, as I become a purple bolt of speed. Each step I make leaves cracks in its wake showing the power behind me. 'Again, is this my dragon strength or mine?' Elva's group starts panicking while the audience just stares at me in awe. Some whisper how I have a chance at winning if I continue to use my full strength, and all of a sudden, I hear two people cheer me on, I glance over to see Rasuna cheering me on and Kasuni looking at me with amazement. I grab the ability stone from my inventory and crush it. 'One other goal about being powerful is to finish the battle before it starts.' Ping!

"You have used the ability stone, what type of ability would you like and for what affinity?"

—————————————————————

'Speed and souls.'

—————————————————————

Departure of the Dead has been chosen.

—————————————————————

Departure of the Dead (Passive) : For countless years, people have came and gone, but now you have harnessed their speed for your gain. This ability triples the speed you have currently.

"Wait, whaaaaaaaAAaAaAAAAAAA!!!!" I become nothing but a blur. There is a BOOM! As I launch forward, leaving nothing but dust. In less than 3 seconds I run into Elva, I feel bones crack as we connect, and when I finally am able to stop running, she goes flying into a wall, unconscious and bleeding from all over. I slowly look over at her teammates, who are all shivering, staring at me with fear on their faces. I am covered in the ability: Shadow Armor, so all they see are two purple shadows that represent my eyes in the mass of black that is my body.

'I had to put this on so I didn't snap my neck at that sudden change of speed.' Dad looks at me, then at Elva, who is now stuck in a wall. 'Where did he learn that magic and how the hell can he move that fast?! And was that silent casting?! That should be impossible at his level!' He stares at me in awe while the crowd has similar thoughts. Some start cheering me on while others cheer Elva's group, and some stay quiet. Kasuni looks at Rasuna. "That speed is insane! And what type of magic is that?" Rasuna just stares at me while responding, "That magic is unknown to me....but if I had to guess, it would most likely be no magic..." Kasuni stares at my black figure, her body quivers a bit and she blushes. 'So his name is Kurayami, I'll be sure to talk to him after this. Even if he is a fleshy being...'

I stare at the people who want to surrender. "Sorry guys, you know the rules, no limits means surrender isn't allowed." Their faces fill with horror as they realize that being here as Elva's friends was a bad idea, and what was meant to be their fun has turned into their hell. I run forward and punch one of the orcs, he goes flying and skids against the ground and when he tries to get up, he realizes, he can't move. Ability: Intimidating Glare was used as I run forward and I start punching his head with my muscles bulging with strength, his face is bloodied and destroyed as he blacks out from the pain.

The tabaxi starts whispering the magic language as he starts casting, I let him speak until I hear a Ping! and then I straight up bolt and ram into his body or so I hoped, an earth barrier appears from under me. The pillar launches me into the sky, I go flying up until I reach the peak. I look around the stadium before guiding off into the pillars shadow. Ability: Shadow Transportation, in use. I appear at the bottom of the pillar's shadow and bolt at the tabaxi, he panics and starts whispering the magic language but can't do it in time, I slam into him, full speed.

He hits the edge of the wall and stays lying there, unmoving. Next is the dwarf and as I stare at him he curls up into a little ball and lays on the ground. I bolt over and kick him in the gut as he flys upwards. I feel a bone crack as he goes flying up and when he drops, I just step to the side as he lands on the ground with thud, unconscious like his friends.

I lastly look at the final orc, he charges at me and I stand there. 'Let's mess with him.' He brings up his sword and tries to slam down, only to be stopped before it touches my head. He pushes harder and harder but to no avail. He looks behind him to see shadows holding onto his arms, preventing him from moving. Ability: Absolute Darkness. 'Okay, enough fun.' And I kick him in the family jewels, his face turns red and he falls onto the ground, crying and whimpering. 'I feel your pain. And next time, get a crotch guard.'

I look over at my father, "I win." As my armor disappears into my shadow showing my body unharmed.

I walk over and look at him with a serious face, "Let Elva heal from those wounds naturally, it will teach her to try and not frame others and will serve as a memory of me." He nods his head, "Those are the rules, I only am allowed to heal those who would die without it." I nod and start to walk away when I am stopped by my dad. "Where did you learn to use magic like that?"

Everyone in the first row of bleachers listened in hoping to hear an explanation. I just sigh and look at him, "It isn't magic, they are abilities from my Dragonborn race." My dad stares at me in disbelief, "No Dragonborn race has innate abilities like that." "My race is a different branch of Dragonborn is all I can say." My dad sighs, seeing this as a normal occurrence.

My dad turns from me and yells, "The winner of this fight is Kurayami!"

Ping!

As I hear that, I nod and start running towards the tables 'Time for some dinner.' I think as I grab a plate. And I start piling stuff on, putting aside the mission for later acceptance.
