"Cough,cough" blood flew out of my mouth as i coughed ,blood dripped from my nose.My bones felt like poridge,i couldn't stand up.Yagumi grabbed a handfull of my hair forcing me up ,at this point all yagumi had to do to win the duel was throw me out of the arena but all he did was force my gaze into his ."wow did i really think you were better than me what a joke".He said while smirking. As he was about to throw out of the ring I gave him a headbutt and swiftly grabbed my sword that was laying on the floor. I then reassumed battle stance and prepared for the upcoming attack "how are your bones still holding you up ,heh I guess you're stronger than I thought huh" yagumi prepared his sword to make his final attack ,we both charge at eachother.Once we clashed our swords they shattered and i took the chance to hit yagumi in the stomach with the pommel of my shattered blade knocking him straight out of the ring/arena. "xzaivier shishiroma has won the duel" the referee prouly and excitedly declared as the audience cheered and screamed for me. yagumi the next day marched into the library and read up on the grim reaper blades.These blades are deadly and powerful ,If anyone is slashed with these blades they would either die or suffer greatly from the incredible wound. yagumi then travelled to grim reaper island to retrieve the grim reaper blades but I travelled to shadow island to retrieve the shadow blade.4 hours later ,I arrive at shadow island and immidiately evade the beastly ferals that reside on the island and reached the the temple of many shadows ,the guards stopped me from entering the majestic temple, although my sword was shattered I still had a dagger on me.I killed both guards with my dagger and took a sword that belonged to one of the guards.I entered the temple and fought my way to the crown room at the top defeating and killing any guard that tried stopping me.I had made it to the crown room at the top floor of the temple. In the crown room I found a room full of guards and on the throne i saw the current shadow king ,barracks. i bowed to king barracks."king barracks I am here to retrieve the shadow blade" I said "what does a member of the shishiroma family want with the shadow blade"? king barracks asked"I want to defeat an adversary that wields the grim reaper blade "I said. "He sounds dangerous...fine If you can defeat my honorary knight Jin I'll give you the legendary shadow blade" king barracks said. DUEL! I excitedly declared. Me and Jin both unsheath our swords swiftly and our fight began. I attacked first but Jin effortlessly blocks and counters my attack ,Jin then swiftly slashes my arm in an attempt to pierce my heart." Hmph i missed ,let me correct my error"Jin said. I remember the moment my father taught me ,he taught me how to use my universal energy to hoax with illusory technques before his death.I used these hoax techniques and they barely worked ,jin's mind was very sharp ,he managed to identify my position each time I used an illusion. I used one more hoax illusion known as phantom hoax. What this move does is it forces your opponent to see ghostly versions of the user making it impossible for the opponent to track the users actual movements. I used this techniques and while the illusory phantoms distracted jin I appeared behind him and got a clean slash on his back making him fall to his knees and when i was about to finish jin off king barracks shouted : "enough you've proved yourself ,you may have the shadow blade" king barracks said before handing the shadow blade over. once i resonated with the shadow blade king barracks was no longer the shadow king."once you gain full mastery over the shadow blade you will become the shadow king". king barracks said.
