Chapter 39 - Chapter 38: Mass Tournament - One Versus Ten.

"So, what will happen to the rest of the participants?" Cia asked with a voice that lacked concern.

Ruth laughed and said, "Hahaha, what do you except. We'll send them up there," then pointed above her head.

Mary then yawned while looking at the holograms infront of her.

"Not, a single one of the participants have intrigued me," said Mary. "Yet, that is."

Her eyes then shifted to another hologram that showcase only two individuals. It was Kris and Jordan.

***

In the forest, the trees began to be lifted off the ground as well as the ground itself.

Jordan who seemed shocked, smiled as he said, "So, this is the Monster."

It was Kris with both Eden and Efriet in his hands. He seemed a bit more.. emotional as his face showed hints of wrath.

"Shift."

Kris weapons that altered and changed into karambits.

Karambit is a small dagger that is curved and has a wide handle that has a finger ring - a hole - that allows one to have a steady grip on the dagger.

Kris then began to walk towards Jordan which then turned into a full sprint. At his fastening pace, Kris jump and kneed Jordan in the face.

"Too slow," Jordan said as his left eye glow red.

His dagger with a skull had blocked the attack. Jordan pulled his weapon and sliced Kris's knee. Than at a lightning fast pace, he stabbed Kris fifteen times in the leg and then kicked Kris back by hitting in the chest.

Kris went flying back, crashing into trees and shattering them.

Jordan ran after Kris, surpassing the speed Kris was going. Jordan then disappeared then reappeared above Kris, where he then landed on top of and then smashed him against the ground. Jordan rapidly stabbed Kris in the gut twenty times, pulling the last stab which brought out an organ.

"Hehe," Jordan laughed crazily while looking at Kris's gut. "It's nice and r-"

Kris kicked Jordan off him, sending the guy into the air.

He said, "Get off me, heavyweight."

He went after Jordan, jumping into the air. Reach the guy, he grabbed him by the shirt and kneed him in the face two times then flung him downwards.

At the speed Jordan was going, the soil below them cracked and created a large crater the size of the ocean on Earth.

[Clear Condition: 65/100]

Doing this killed both Monsters and Players, but neither Kris or Jordan cared.

"*Sigh*" Jordan sighed. "Time to get serious."

[Active Skill:

Reaper of Death]

A hundred black arms appeared behind Jordan that emitted the aura of havoc. They went towards Kris, erecting from Jordans back.

"Let's bring you down to my level," Jordan said while licking the blood of his dagger.

Falling towards the ground, Kris could see the dark hands coming up towards him.

Kris then said with a hint of anger, "What's the fucking rush."

He sliced the first arm in two, the second punched him upwards and towards the third. He cut it into two halves as well and then rapidly swinged at the enclosing hands around that made it look like he was falling into a black hole. 

"Where is he?" Jordan inquired looking up at the dark sky which was infested with his black arms.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!" Kris roared as he emerged from the other side.

[Title:

Negative Roar]

He sliced through the arms like they were butter and created a path for him to escape the enclosing hands that threaten to crush him.

Weapon:

Aqua - Legendary/Level 2]

He summoned and held Aqua between his teeth as he fell towards Jordan, with the hundreds of black arms approaching behind him.

Kris yelled, "DIE!!!"

He slashed all his tree blades, creating a trio of ice, fire and water that aimed at Jordan's body.

Jordan smiled as he laughed, "Hahahaha!!"

He was then sliced into three pieces.

[Passive Skill:

Deaths Call]

[You have returned x1 Cleave (Aqua Cleaver)]

"A kill didn't show up," Kris said.

Jordan's body parts vanished into a black hue.

[Active Skill:

Dark Army of the Dead]

[Active Skill:

Enchanting & Eternal Black Flames]

From below, a horde of black creatures climbed out from the ground. They were engulfed in black flames that burned away their flesh which was constantly being healed.

"Let's see how you last against my puppets," said Jordan who was behind Kris.

Kris turned and saw Jordan.

He inquired inwardly, "(How did he hide his presence like that?)"

[Active Skill:

Grim Reapers Gate]

A black portal which was similar to a Dungeon's Black Gate appeared at Jordan's left.

"Bye," Jordan said with a smile as he entered the portal. "Hehehe!"

Before his disappeared, his left eye suddenly flashed bright red and a third eye appeared and flashed purple.

His minions black flames then changed into a crimson red and the sky also changed into crimson.

"Why does everything have to be so hard?" Kris inquired.

He charged towards the Deads and slashed at them randomly. First he decapitated then, then he sliced off their feet and finally he burnt them alive.

[Active Skill:

Pyrokinesis - Legendary/Level 5 (MAX)]

Kris's eyes then flashed golden as he then said, "I found you."

[Active Skill:

Instantaneous Acceleration - Unique/Level 5 (MAX)]

Jordan, who was seating at the edge of another mountain said, "He's already don-"

Suddenly, the trees were blown away, as well as Jordan. The birds then began to fly away.

When the rumble and debris disappeared, Kris was standing above Jordan with his daggers ready to kill him.

***

Mary then yawned once again and turned her eyes towards another hologram.

"That Necromancer now intrigues," she said.

"Huh?" Cia inquired. "What he do to do that?"

"Well, it simply," Mary said. "He has no connection to Omega yet seems like he has unfair advantages. The Eye of Hell, The Eye of the Abyss and The Eye of Heaven which he didn't use."

She continued, "Also, he didn't take the fight seriously as he showcased only a very small portion of his Skills and his overall prowess. With that, he did a decent performance."

"Cia," Mary called.

"Yeah," Cia answered.

Mary then said with a lazy tune to her voice, "Can you go and explain the rules to the first person that had completed the second round."

"Uhh, sure," she said.

The next second a blue aura appeared around her and she the disappeared.

***

[Twenty Minutes Later...]

The eleven slots were now occupied with Players. Infront of them was a wheel that had colours which was the same as the platforms.

"Only eleven of us? What happened to the other Players?" The one on the purple slot said, with a hint of concern and confusion. "It can't be that only eleven survived out of fifty."

"Shut up," said a female in the red slot. "You should be worrying about yourself than others. Don't you know that only one of us will survive."

The Player on the blue slot was seated down crying. The others didn't even say anything except exchange nods and gazes.

Kris, was seated as well.

Cia then appeared behind the wheel and then said, "Alright, let me explain to rules to new arrivals."

"First, I will spin the wheel and if it lands on your colour, you'll be eliminated," said Cia.

"So it's a game of luck," said the Player on the brown slot. "The probability of that wheel landing on any one of use is nine point zero nine percent, with a remainder of zero point zero one precent."

Cia then said with a frown, "But there is a catch. The only way that Player doesn't get eliminated is if they manage to kill all ten Players."

"What?!!" The guy on the brown slot exclaimed.

He then turned his eyes towards all ten Players and then said, "(If it lands on me, I'm screwed. The only way I survived was because I was in a team. And if it doesn't land on me in the end I'm still fucked!)"

Cia then smiled once again as she said, "Now, I'm going to spin the wheel."

She then spined the wheel with her left arm, which created a heavy burst of wind.

"(Shit!)"

Everyone was in suspense, waiting and hoping it landed on someone else who was weak.

After two minutes it landed on yellow.

The Player on the brown platform the said, "(Damn, what on unlucky gu-)"

Suddenly, the stadium was flooded. Everyone was caught in the heavy and strong waves of water.

"What the hell is happening?" One asked.

In the middle of the stadium - which was destroyed - was a gigantic creature which was three times the wide and length of the stadium. On top of creature was Kris.

"I finally found a mildly accurate time to summon this thing," said Kris. "I was waiting for this moment."

"Crap!"
