Chapter 5: Death game: A exotic entity.
[ Osiris perspective ]
" let the carnage begin!! ". This sentence rang out throughout the tournament arena, accompanied by the enchanting dusk, which made the trees turn from their green colour to a colour that seemed to be in the autumn verges.
These simple two words fulfilled me with pleasure, that it made me smile from elation.
" what will you do, you've heard him?? would you join or perish??" I shouted while sensing if there is people around us. As I uttered those words, her facial features changed from relaxed to serious, and then she defied as she took a swordless fighting posture " Most of the time, I would have thought rationally, but since you are so arrogant, I will give you an opportunity. If you can get me to grab my blade I will declare you as my lifelong boss."
I remained tight-lipped for an instant while I scanned her face which was covered by her hair strewn above it, Then I asked the following " What if I couldn't".
Her hidden features fell while the atmosphere around her became dull then she responded " you'll die!!".
This sounded so much entertaining that I preferred a merely bodily fight. It seemed like an easy target, so all I wanted to do was play a little bit. Until she took a deep breath and broke free of any combative structure just a normal standing posture, however, it was dangerous and her relaxed stance made me realize that any reckless attack would lead to detaching my head from the rest of my body.
her attacking field was so wide that it covered nearly seven meters in diameter, which made me sink into thinking what kind of military attack I would be taking until she announced while her face was covered in a satisfied smile " It seems that, unlike your disciple, you comprehend what's going on around you ha ha ha!!"
I replied while turning around her in a circle which diameter minimise in each spin " Sorry about that. My disciple isn't the minded kind, although I assume that this intense scar on your shoulder will remain a memory between the two of you.", when I said my last sentence, I hinted that her face was getting irritated at it, causing me to jog towards her in a moment of distraction. Then I said as I was building impetus from moving in globes with every step I took " Ancestor style, first dance: meteor ". Then I hopped ten meters above her as I rotated myself until my body was vertical with her cranium, and I authorized gravity to pull me down, causing me to plummet like a wreck.
With my complete belief that it was all over since I had enough strength to squeeze her skull with this attack, she laughed sarcastically and said "Ode to Doom, Fighter Style: Reflection." While trying to comprehend why she was chuckling, she turned upside down as she let her right elbow comfort on the surface to ensure her harmony during the moment of clash and raised her left leg in an arched path to gather enough force, to break the leg heading toward her.
My arrogance made me laugh in mockery because of her futile attempt to attack me while I was gaining the momentum of falling from the top until our feet met with a gentle touch of her left talon, which made her previous saying "reflection" furnace in my ear like a thunderbolt, I realized then that she was not fighting me hard, she aimed to return 100% of the attack towards me in a moment of impact, which created a gust of air pressure that made trees, plants, some weeds, gravels and everything around us tilt heavily from its place except for my crew, which was being protected by Venatrix powerfully made barrier, it also made the ground crack under her from the intensity of pressure which she applied with her elbow, while her touch made me fly through the air and land hard on a random tree in the surface while I shivered from the cerebral tremor of hitting a matchless beast, which made me scream with a mouth full of blood, "urgh...A damn ogre !! I don't know how they let you live until now. Those geezers fear anything that might destabilize their thrones."
" [coughing]...I underestimated you. The word monster doesn't fit your description in terms of physical abilities " I said as I coughed from the pain of hitting the ground, then added "But not anymore, I'm going to fight you to kill you. You better prepare for your doom."
I got up and pressed my lips under my mask from regret for belittling her. While healing my limbs that seemed almost broken from falling on that tree, I said as I looked at how shocked she was at my ability to heal " Emancipation, Second Form: The King of the Dead "...
[ Ailred perspective ]
" Emancipation, First Form: The King of the Dead", He said as a black aura began to rise from under his feet until completely enveloping his body, Suddenly I found myself surrounded by his squad. They then without hesitation pulled their weapons from their sheaths.
Their weapons were varied but striking a balance between them, with Hiwaga taking out his spear, while the charmingly-bodied blonde girl Venatrix pulled a sharp-edged sceptre out of the void, the snow White Hestia pulled out her sword that covered her surroundings with an intense killing thirst, lastly, the burly boy Inej with his feminine name pulled out a dagger that seemed thick and thin at the same time.
Amidst this chaos of which I understood nothing, what drove me crazy was the Wizard who stood in the front unarmed, with a curious laugh on his face, then a sound like a heartbeat throbbed in everyone's ears, instantly the descent aura blew up, causing an entity that seemed dangerous to emerge.
Osiris came out, but he looked different, a black mask with two wings on its edges extending to his ears, covering only his eyes and nose, allowing his cold red gaze and his rosy lips glistening against his spotless white skin to appear, With a faint black sash fluttering with every breeze, extending from his shoulders down his torso, and a pearl-studded cloak that covered him with infinite nobility, in addition to a trousers colour of the dusk, For a moment, he seemed like a night in the middle of that sunset.
With the sunset star descending and the night entering its theatrical role, Hestia whispered these words" No matter how illogical what you're going to observe now, don't loosen your defence even for a moment. Understood?"
At the end of her whispers, Osiris began to strut toward us, and then suddenly vanished from my vision, at the same moment it seemed as if the wind had blown the hair of the girls in front of me. In a vain attempt to understand why the breeze was blowing, I caught sight of a black silhouette straight in front of me as long as my abdomen. As I lowered my eyes to understand what was happening, I caught everyone's worried looks at me while they were mumbling about something that I couldn't hear. Suddenly I felt a shock wave as if a bomb had exploded in the centre of my abdomen and spread to the rest of my vital organs, causing me to fly backwards in a horizontal path, as I flew I caught a glimpse of Osiris as he gripped his hand in the form of a punch.
Monster nothing but this message crossed my mind. Just a punch from him made my blessed body look like a wet piece of paper, while I was bumping hard from tree to tree I tried to keep my equilibrium to land on the footing without suffering any fractures, I hit a huge stone that I did not see, which broke most of my rib cage.
As I was losing consciousness little by little from the pain, Osiris appeared in front of me in the blink of an eye and directed his kick in the direction of the lower part of my liver. Which made me lose the feeling of my extremities. In my futile attempt to pull the sword out of its scabbard, he broke my hand mercilessly to prevent me from surrendering, " he must be trying to make me regret his defiance." I thought as I was On the brink of destruction.
I raised my eyes and stared at him with a desperate look close to collapsing, rapidly, his face seemed to decrease from a kick landed on him, then he flew away.
" heal her..." the sweet voice said as random hands caressed me until I gradually lost consciousness...
[ Hestia perspective ]
The blue colour of her hands and feet is definitive evidence that most of her bones have been shattered by the thundering blow he delivered to her, even her body appears pitifully with a hole in the centre of her stomach and some ribs protruding from her rib cage.
She didn't seem to notice that it was dangerous to lower her guard when we surrounded her.
Thinking I warned her of what it was going to happen
What a Shame, the first punch must have made her lose her will to fight.
By the way, where is he, I hope I didn't kick him too hard, he tried to kill her, what a ruthless beast.
Damn, he gets more and more terrifying every time he frees himself. To think that he had caused this monster to suffer all these wounds and fractures, not to mention this cracked rock and its surroundings which now looks like a forest hit by a tornado.
While I was thinking of how terrifying he would be when he got serious, my crystal ball rang.
"haaah??... that was fast, is it over?? who is the winner??" I screamed as we all looked at our balls.
it was recently added, It seems that one of the players fulfilled the conditions to add it, As I checked my notification, my face changed from a relaxed expression to a frightened one from the shock.
"Osiris, you idiot??? I'm going to kill you?" We all screamed except Hiwaga who was shocked.
He didn't know why we were screaming because he was busy treating the injured girl.
The rule was obvious :
<Kill Osiris and you will win the ranking battle>, it seemed difficult at first because you have to search all over the jungle for one person, but the fool put his position with a message saying that he will not move from his place...
" I guess we should head toward him, Venatrix stay next to hiwaga. Inej you better hurry and follow me!! that idiot is going to get himself killed" I shouted as I headed toward the location on the message.
I was a little worried about them because they would have to fight while protecting her. But since Venatrix is a sorceress, she might have a protection spell or something, as I headed towards Osiris I caught some overwhelming auras, as if they were hunters lurking their prey. As we approached, our surroundings became filled with people, nearly thirty of them seemed like vicious beasts from the pressure they were releasing. What made me confused was that they did not move, even though they knew his standpoint was right in front of them, it took me to think about why they didn't move until my body shivered from the killing intent of two people, enveloping the dark atmosphere. The feeling was severe and ominous, which made me order inej, who began to drip from the intensity of the desire encompassing us, then we halted while striving not to announce our arrival.
The location was beautiful for a killing field, it was an open spot, allowing the moonlight to glow in the heart of it, which made the place look like a theatre that will declare the inception of the absolute concert.
Amid the moonlight stood two figures, one of whom was Osiris, with his dark noble character, the other was a nobleman of households enthusiastic toward the monarchs, standing tactfully in his blood-stained robe, which indicated that he was the most honourable in his forged alliance.
"Osiris. Yo!! I think you've drawn too much attention to you, it irritates a typical being who claims to be noble." he said while his shining face was only emotionless, a look of animosity toward his opponent..." know your place peasants, this message for all of you!! I'll show you what a noble can do" he whined as he drew his blade.
{ The nobles have always been different from the common people.
In bygone eras, a person seeking for peace was born with authentic awareness of blacksmithing. While living in the dullness of wars and withstanding the atrocity of extinction, he was able to gain acquaintance of using organs or other parts of mythical creatures that existed in that era of chaos, to craft 20 pairs of weapons and present them to every species of archaic dynasties.
Over time they the users perished, leaving half of them to the monarchs who liberated the land from that sea of blood, while the other half been missed.
From that day every only one candidate for the position of the Royal Guard is given a pair of antique weapons.}
" So now let the slaughter begin...!! " The noble person announced.....
