The first sword that Ryuma dodged was coming from behind him but Ryuma dodged it. "You'll need to do better than that!"
"Molus Megolus!" Cheris summon a large of golden wave to push Ryuma outside of ring. Ryuma was caught up by the wave but didn't move an inch from his spot. He's on all four with his finger digging through the ground. Ryuma then coming to Cheris with a great speed.
Cheris is anxious. "Magin O Megolus!" Cheris summon a golden minatour with a single handle axe. The golden minatour then swing the axe on Ryuma but Ryuma managed to dodged it by an inch of his life by back off from his attack.
"Oooh... that was close..." Ryuma then jump on the minatour and tried punch him but the minatour instinctively raise his arm to block. But his arm was grabbed. The minatour then realized that Ryuma has leglock him on the waist. Ryuma then moved the minatour's arm.
"This arm is in the way." And punch the minatour's right cheeks. But Ryuma didn't stop there as he still punch the minatour's head countless time and then one finishing blow at the end.
The golden minatour dissapeared. But Cheris made a surprise attack by launching his sword. Ryuma dodged it but it scratched his cheek. Ryuma still coming onto Cheris.
"Migo Megolus!" Cheris summon a giant size golden hand and punch Ryuma. Ryuma was send far by a great distance.
"Whale O Megolus!" Cheris summon a large golden whale on the top of the ring. Everyone was awe by the shine and brightness of the whale. Cheris then command the whale and point his wand to Ryuma. The Whale then immediately dropped himself on Ryuma as Cheris ordered.
"Omg, who would even survived that attack?"
"Did he lived?" That was the question that almost the people in the arena thinking. Harris was sitting on the VIP chair, grinning.
"Hah! this is what happen when you go againts the royalty, Ryuma Ochirou. Also thanks to Cheris new ability now he'll be a good stepping stone for me to go on the throne!"
(About a month ago after he was defeated by Ryuma Ochirou, Cheris gained an ability out of nowhere called Megolus(Golden Light). It was the ability to recreated any object and lifeform with a golden color.)
Both Cheris and Harris didn't know the principal behind this mysterious power. That also the same for Jacob and his iron abilities.
Now, with Ryuma gone and our family social's standing increased. I can still reach the throne before 'him'."
But Harris realized Ryuma is still standing on two feet while holding his knee."Whaa-!" Harris was left speechless. That goes same for Cheris.
"You done? then it's my turn now." Ryuma then raise his leg and kick the flat ground creating the speck of dust. Cheris then raise his wand "Migo Megol- urrrgh!" Ryuma use a wind magic to send the speck of dust he created to Cheris. Right onto Cheris's eyes. Disable Cheris's ability to see.
"Urrggh! there's a dust in my eyes! I can't see anything!" Cheris heared the footstep on his way and isntinctively swing the sword on his way but it didn't hit anything."Where! Where is he!"
Before he know it, he can feel the presence behind him. he immeditely command the sword to attack the presence behind him. But it didn't hit. The stone was throwed, hitting Cheris's hand.
"M-My Wand!" Cheris then feel someone just grabbed him with both hands. And the hit on the abdomen. Cheris vomitted and then was on his knees with holding his stomach at the same time. Cheris slowly open his eyes. It was Ryuma who was looking down on him. Then Cheris immediately remembered his past duel.
It was the same gaze Ryuma gave him at the duel before."What's wrong? a cat got your tongue huh?" Ryuma then kick Cheris on the head. Sending him about 15 meters. Ryuma slowly coming to Cheris.
"Ckh! Water Cutter!" Cheris trying last resort attack thinking he can win againts Ryuma. Ryuma then dodged the attack and kick Cheris once more. Cheris was sending almost outside of boundaries of the ring.
"Now let me think, the examiner was using appraiser magic right before the duel thinking i was gonna bring anything fishy into this duel. But instead he use some weird magic that weakened me. But good thing i bring this here"
Ryuma open his mouth and show the piercing on his tounge. Harris was surprised. "It was a magic tool to prevent any debuff on the wearer! How did he know about the debuff magic!?"
("Well good thing I got this from "him") Now then, i'm gonna ask you a question Cheris. Why do you hate me? Is it because I'm attributless? or is it just because I'm commoner?" Cheris didn't answer. Ryuma then grab Cheris and kick him to the center of the arena.
"Now let me tell you a story Cheris. There was one family without a attribute. What do you thinks gonna happen to that family? Were they hated and ignored by Society? NO! they were not hated nor ignored by them! Why you ask? It's because they also the normal people! A breathing human! They've got affection and praise if they do it right! They can also have friends and lovers if they want to!"
"Because they've accepted failure like us! We can also be in society if we want to! And now those who you called failure... you just lost to them. To this failure. Are everyone in this arena are gonna accept you after this?"
Ryuma walking to Cheris and lend him his hand."Nobody's the failure here. Not me nor you. Or even every attributless in this world." Cheris looking at Ryuma's hand and raise his hand and hit it. Cheris raise his hand not to accept him but to reject him.
"Ryuma Ochirou, After I've been defeated by you a while ago... I've acknowledge you... you are strong. That goes the same for every attributless in this world. But I can't accept it. Because I'm the one with pride and ego! And you're gonna get rid of them right here right now!"
"Megolus Melodas: RIDER!!!" Cheris summon a Golden horse a triple size than him. Cheris also has been equipped with the golden armor. Cheris get on the top of the horse. And then a Big Golden Sword just appeared on his hand.
"Let's finish this Ryuma Ochirou!"
Ryuma smiled "Hah! If that's what you want... BRING IT ON!!!"
The two was on the ready set stance.
Cheris is the one who's charging first. He's coming at Ryuma with all his might.
(I'm coming, Cheris!) But Ryuma instantly felt something was wrong. Was Cheris too fast? Or was it he's on his limit? It was neither of those. The time is moving slower. He's trying to lift his finger, hand, leg, his whole body.
He realized that he was immobilized. He's trying to figure out the reason behind it. He then look at the crowd. There's a two people wearing a rob, one was smiling at him. He instinctively knew they're behind his immobilization.
At the same time Cheris was charging at him with his full force. He's trying to move his body with all his might. But couldn't. All Ryuma can do is watch Cheris coming at him. The second he realized he was on the wall. Out of boundary of the ring. He coughed up blood, his mind is blurred. He still couldn't move his body.
At the last moment, he look at the where the robe guy were. But they're gone. Ryuma slowly closed his eyes thinking everything was over.
When he open his eyes back, his head was facing the ceiling. He was in school infirmary. At Ryuma's side was Vesmon. "Ryuma! you're awake!"
"Vesmon..." Vesmon is not the only person who's there. It was his whole classmate.
"Ryuma! We're glad you're awake! I thought you were on death odor when you got hit by that."
"Yeah... I'm fine(x2). Anyway, What's happened to duel?" Everyone in the room including Vesmon look away from Ryuma's eyes.
"So... I lost huh..."
