Viola, satisfied with the current situation, breathed a sigh of relief and she started walking out of the arena.
"This might be the fastest elimination in history of the Nest!! Presenting the winner and the final contestant—" the proctor said before he paused, watching the arena.
Everyone was silent and gasped as all eyes were fixed in the direction where Jason laid.
Viola stopped walking and paused, with her back facing the the arena.
As she turned her head slightly to see what was getting everyone's attention, Jason was nowhere to be found.
She became irritated immediately and unsheathed her sword to prepare herself.
Suddenly, Jason appeared and kicked Viola, which she blocked with her arm.
However, he kicked her with such brute force and strength, it momentarily shook the arena and broke her arm as she was tossed away by the impact and struck a wall.
She fell down, holding her right arm in pain, and looked up; not expecting Jason towering over her and looking down on her with a ferocious and bloodthirsty gaze.
What surprised her the most was that her sword attack on Jason's chest was completely healed.
His eyes resembled like the time when he was passed by the demon Trihexa -and that even made Viola stare in fear.
"You look scared. How about I put you out of your misery?," he smirked as he watched his prey, looking up in fear.
He noticed Viola's sword lying close to her and took it..
"Ah!! Dojikiri Atsutsuna!! I haven't seen this blade for over 7500 years!!," he said as he admired the sword which even made Viola gasped.
"How-how do you know my sword?! I haven't told anyone about it!!," she muttered as she was still very weak from the impact.
He answered, "It's a simple answer really: I know this blade because I created it!!"
"That's impossible!! You're a kid!! This sword is far older than anyone in this arena!!"
He laughed hysterically -meanwhile, no one can hear the conversation because the barrier surrounding the arena prevents any person outside it from listening- and he crouched to meet his face with Viola's.
"It seems you're still a young one!! Let me show you!," he replied and placed his hand on her head.

Somewhere inside Viola's mind, she was stranded in a black mass resembling an ocean.
She then saw a bright red light behind her and turned around to see the source of that light.
What she saw made her tremble in fear: a tall black throne with Trihexa sitting on it, legs crossed and his right hand supporting his chin.
His form was a young adult man, with spiked hair, sharped teeth and black markings all over his body.
He was bare chested and had a really toned physique.
His eyes were pure red with yellow irises, indicating that he was close to or already reached the rank of a god.
He then smirked and said, "Welcome to my throne!! Hope you now fully understand who I am now!!"
She was shocked by his presence and the aura surrounding him was so strong to the extent that she could barely move.
"You're-you're the Demon of Destruction!!," she said and that made Trihexa surprised as he watched Viola closely.
He then grabbed her sword, approached her and stabbed her right eye with it.
She screamed in agonizing pain and held her eye that was bleeding profusely as she looked up, with Trihexa watching her with a malicious look.
"No one from this era knows that title!! Also, that eye disgusts me a lot!! I don't know who you are, but you better not cause me trouble in the future!!," he said and snapped his fingers.
That brought Viola back to the arena but her right eye was completely blind and had a whitish appearance.
The trauma was so much for her, she fainted instantly.
At that time, Trihexa -still using Jason's body- sighed, "I can't believe I indirectly helped this brat!! No matter!! At least that eye is completely destroyed!"
He then continued, "Guess time's up!!," as he dropped his hand and lowered his head.
————————-/——//————————————
It took a while and Jason regained consciousness and he saw Viola on the ground, fainted.
He sighed and got up, with the proctor and everyone outside the barrier confused and shocked as the barrier suddenly disappeared.
"Uhh, well folks!! Seems that we have our final contestant!! Jason Howler!!," he announced and the crowd -still in disbelief about the recent events- still cheered, with Jason exiting the arena throughout the celebration.
