Shino who just got out the cave and encounter demons, are walking carelessly, and thinking, "Those demons says my aura are tremendous, now that I think about it they were trembling, maybe from fear, but they still attack me, hmmm…this aura thing I can't see it but maybe I can conceal it. Is the guy who command them the leader? If they are waiting for their actual leader that person will be furious"
With a worried look Shino smiled and said, "Why do I feel like something bad is going to happen?"
After walking for a while Shino notice a wall and was excited and run to it, but then a tree fall in front of him and when he look back there was a demon behind him
"Oi! Are you the one who killed my subordinates?!" the demon said angrily
"Shit~ so they are waiting for their leader" Shino said to himself with a spooked look
"You are pretty incredible for a human, defeating all of them by yourself, well they are just cannon fodder, but still you ruin my plan, so could you drop dead now human" the demon said with menacing glare
The demon dash forward and Shino can't react fast enough
"Eh? That's fast" Shino said to himself
With a blink of an eye the Demon punch a hole on Shino's chest, completely obliterating his heart and Shino fall to the ground
"Tsk! so I over estimated you, you are nothing but a weakling" the demon said disappointedly
"Well there is a tournament happening in this city, it is my plan to kill all adventurer who participated, but might as well slaughter a bunch of civilian" the demon said with a grin
The demon jump so high he pass the cloud toward the coliseum laughing wickedly
"Eh? Wait, what you said?!" Shino asked
Shino quickly get up but turning around the demon is already gone
"Shit! I should have not act dead, now people are in danger" Shino said while panicking
Shino run towards the City wall and after seeing the gate Shino took a deep breath
"There is probably some toll fee or something if I enter it normally and I don't have any money so, sorry about this, going to commit a little crime" Shino said while getting in position to dash
Shino use ˹Thunderous Sprint˼ and run through the gate in lightning speed. The guard was spooked by it but all they see is a lightning bolt and thought it was an enemy attack and not a person dashing through in result they closed the gate, prepare for an attack from outside, and called for back-up.
In the coliseum within the short time span, only a few adventurer remain standing, those who are in diamond spectrum are not tired at all and the others are beaten but remain standing.
Murakami was gravely injured after facing the crimson witch and crocus are down after fighting the Steel Lancer.
~~~~PRRRRRTTT-PRRRRTTTT~~~
A whistle was blown and a momentary halt has occurred, the medical team came inside the coliseum to pull out all those who are down and gave up, out of 100 participant only 30 remains and most of them are those in Diamond spectrum while few are in gold ranked and already tired
The medical team has successfully get the down out of the arena with the whistle blown…
~~~~PRRRRRTTT~~~~
The momentary halt resume…
Hiroko who are exhausted from fighting a few adventurer was about to face Reeve Garner, the axe giant.
"Time to take a rest Kid!" Reeve said confidently
"Don't belittle me, I still have plenty of stamina to fight" Hiroko said while panting
As they about to cross their weapon another whistle are heard but the whistle is sharp tone and was not coming to the referee
~~WSSSHH… KAABBOOOMM~~~
Like a missile hitting a ground, an explosion occurred in the center of the ring after the sharp whistle. The demon Shino encounter has entered the ring
"Greetings humans, looks like you are having fun, why not let me join?" the demon said
As the cloud of dust settles, a person with pure blackened eye, pale white skin, a tail, and a single horn are seen, the audience panic and start shouting "DEMON!!"
"Ahh-ha… There they go screaming and rattling around like a bunch of ants that got their homes trampled" the demon said with a sigh
The demon then start to chant, "Heed me to what I say and follow my voice for eternality, ˹Grand Order˼"
A large burst of dark energy has cover the coliseum and every single person who panicked stop moving
"Go back to your seat" the demon said
All the audience body stop and started going back to their sit, some are confused and some are terrified, some shout, "my body are moving on their own"
All audience was force to go back their seat and was forced to stay there, even the orange and red adventure that are watching was affected by the magic
"Let's try this again, Ehem! Greeting humans, my name is Makarith of the Valley…" Makarith said and immediately halt
Before Makarith finishes his introduction Brice Alderman goes in attack but was blocked by using only one hand by Makarith
"Demons has no place here, begone!" Brice said angrily
While Makarith holds Brice sword, he said, "It is rude to interrupt someone's introduction, do you know that? Human"
And punch Brice to his stomach and sent him flying towards the coliseum's wall
"Such terrifying strength, what are you here for?" Hiroko asked with nervous voice
Makarith then smile and said, "AHH!! Finally someone who understand my capability!"
"YES!!! FEAR ME!! Well then human, let me answer your question as a reward, I am here to slaughter you all" Makarith added
Everyone is terrified, and all the remaining adventurer in the arena surrounded Makarith. Even if fear is seen in the face of the remaining adventurer, they draw their sword and magic and point it towards the demon. Makarith laugh out loud
"Yes! Fear me humans! Those expression… pull out your sword and entertain me, last longer than the human I encounter earlier!" Makarith said with ecstatic voice
Makarith then sense something from the crowd and look toward what seems to be a V.I.P area
"Huh?! Looks like someone special is in here… OOHHH, my lord will be pleased if they saw your head" Makarith said
With a terrifying grin Makarith suddenly vanish from the arena, looking around the coliseum Makarith is seen where the King and princess are sitting,
Makarith then extend his hand to the princess and touch her face and said, "Ahh, such a lovely face, Greetings Princess"
The princess is disgusted but can't move because of the magic Makarith cast earlier
Captain Richard immediately dash and manage to slice Makarith's hand before he can avoid it
"Touching the Princess is prohibited, especially for demons like you!" Richard said
Stepping back to the railings and taking a look at his decapitated arm
"Hhmmm.. You are not affected by my magic, such a strong will you have, I guess I'll kill you first" Makarith said with a smile
In the arena Raoulin Alderman started chanting, "God of War, Haeyer, Heed my call and obliterate my enemy, let the tale be told, that spear has win and shield is pierced, ˹Tell-Tale Throw˼"
Raoulin Alderman throw his spear with such a powerful force as if a comet was going up in the sky, it hit Makarith in the back and the spear is stuck to his body, and when they though that Raoulin killed the demon, Makarith turned around and smiled
"Such a bunch of idiots, thinking they can a demon with this child's play" Makarith said annoyingly
Meanwhile outside the coliseum Shino has arrive exhausted with third degree burns that is already healing
"So this is where that demon is talking about, AAHHH!! Water!! Too tired!!" Shino said while panting
"Ahh! I should not let that demon know that I am still alive, let see…" Shino added
Shino look around and saw a mask stall next to water station that is currently empty
"God Forgive me for what I about to do, but I don't have money so I have no choice" Shino said
Shino then stole a few drinks of water and a masked in the stall and entered the coliseum.
