Bonus Round: Battle Royale – Total Chaos
The atmosphere was electric as Beerus threw in the ultimate twist: a full-on Battle Royale! Everyone in the arena could feel the weight of the moment as Beerus announced the new rules—no alliances, no targets, just complete chaos. Everything went—magic, swordplay, hand-to-hand combat—anything was fair game. The Demon Lords, Generals, and now, Luminous and Dino, the two unexpected wildcards, were thrown into the fray.
The audience buzzed with anticipation. Luminous and Dino were both known for their unpredictable nature, and now they were part of the chaos. The crowd's murmurs echoed through the arena as they eagerly awaited the start.

The First Clash: Guy vs. Luminous vs. Clayman
Guy (Life Bar: 100%) vs. Luminous (Life Bar: 100%) and Clayman (Life Bar: 100%)
The chaos began immediately. Guy locked eyes with Luminous, his aura flaring with power, but just as he advanced, Clayman launched a surprise attack, using his dark magic to create a massive illusion that temporarily blinded both of them. Guy's eyes narrowed, and with a snap of his fingers, he shattered the illusion.
Before Clayman could react, Luminous, her light magic glowing brightly, teleported behind Guy and delivered a powerful light blast directly at his back, knocking him a few steps forward.
But Guy wasn't phased. He turned and summoned his Lucifer Blade, clashing with Luminous' light, sending crackling energy through the air. The audience gasped as Luminous' Life Bar dipped slightly.
Luminous's Life Bar: 90%
Clayman's Life Bar: 98%
Guy's Life Bar: 95%
Dino vs. Milim vs. Carrion
Dino (Life Bar: 100%) vs. Milim (Life Bar: 100%) and Carrion (Life Bar: 100%)
Meanwhile, Dino, ever the relaxed one, stretched lazily and glanced around, only to see Milim charging toward him. Without missing a beat, Dino yawned and, with a lazy swipe of his hand, conjured a spatial rift to teleport away just as Milim's dragon fist slammed into the ground where he had been standing.
Milim grinned, "That's more like it!" She turned and rushed toward Carrion, who was already in his beastly form, roaring with fury.
Carrion swung at Milim, his massive fists sending shockwaves through the air, but Milim easily dodged, her draconic wings flapping powerfully as she launched a volley of flames.
Dino, meanwhile, was perched on a rock, watching the battle unfold with an amused smirk. He waved his hand, summoning a massive stone golem to assist him. The golem charged at Carrion, distracting him momentarily and allowing Milim to land a direct hit.
Carrion's Life Bar: 85%
Milim's Life Bar: 95%
Dino's Life Bar: 100%
Erza vs. Alfa, Beta, Delta, Sigma
Erza (Life Bar: 100%) vs. Alfa (Life Bar: 100%), Beta (Life Bar: 100%), Delta (Life Bar: 100%), Sigma (Life Bar: 100%)
Erza, unyielding as ever, charged into the fray, facing off against the four elite generals. Alfa unleashed a lightning storm, but Erza, with her Crimson Armor protecting her, blocked the blasts and darted forward. She swung her sword with precise mastery, cutting through Beta's gravity manipulations and narrowly avoiding Sigma's energy shield.
Delta, with his mastery of fire, shot a torrent of flames toward her. But Erza countered with a flame slash that tore through the fire and struck Delta, causing his life bar to drop slightly.
Alfa's Life Bar: 88%
Beta's Life Bar: 90%
Delta's Life Bar: 85%
Sigma's Life Bar: 95%
Erza's Life Bar: 90%
Zerna vs. Draguel
Zerna (Life Bar: 100%) vs. Draguel (Life Bar: 100%)
In the distance, Zerna was quietly weaving shadow magic, preparing for her next move. Draguel, sensing the danger, made the first move, summoning a chaotic wind that disrupted Zerna's shadows, forcing her to expose herself. Zerna quickly responded by manipulating the shadows beneath the ground, launching sharp tendrils at Draguel, but he sidestepped and landed a devastating blow to her side, knocking her down.
Zerna's Life Bar: 85%
Draguel's Life Bar: 95%
The Tide Shifts: Luminous vs. Dino
Luminous (Life Bar: 85%) vs. Dino (Life Bar: 100%)
While everyone else was locked in battle, Luminous turned her attention to Dino, who had been quietly watching the chaos unfold. "What are you going to do, Dino?" she challenged.
Dino grinned lazily, his eyes glinting with mischief. "I'm just waiting for the right moment."
Before Luminous could react, Dino disappeared, using space magic to teleport behind her and deliver a blinding pulse of energy. Luminous quickly blocked, but the blast sent her crashing into the ground, causing her life bar to drop.
Luminous's Life Bar: 70%
Dino's Life Bar: 100%
The Final Stand: Guy, Milim, and the Others
The final stages of the battle unfolded as Guy and Milim continued to clash with each other, while Clayman and Dino took advantage of their remaining opponents. Carrion, now down to 40% of his life, roared in frustration but continued to swing wildly, while Zerna carefully plotted her next move, remaining in the shadows.
The crowd was in total awe. The intensity of the battles, the unimaginable powers at play—this was beyond anything they had ever expected. Luminous gritted her teeth, determined to regain her strength and not go down without a fight.
Kings and queens looked on, their faces filled with shock. "This is a true battle of the gods," one whispered.
The Endgame: Guy vs. Milim
As the battle reached its final moments, it became clear that Guy and Milim were the final two contenders standing. Their auras were intense, crackling with energy as they each prepared for the decisive blow.
Guy summoned all his remaining strength and unleashed a Lucifer Beam, a massive blast of dark energy that shook the very foundation of the arena. Milim, her energy drained but still determined, launched a final dragon flame breath, clashing with Guy's beam in a burst of light and energy.
Guy's Life Bar: 60%
Milim's Life Bar: 30%
The explosion sent both combatants to the ground, breathing heavily. Guy slowly stood up, his Lucifer Blade still in hand, while Milim, exhausted, smiled through her bruises. The crowd erupted into a deafening cheer.
Victory: Guy
In the end, Guy stood victorious, but just barely. As the arena quieted, Beerus raised his hand, signaling the end of the match.
"Victory goes to Guy," Beerus declared. "But all of you showed incredible power."
The crowd roared in approval, and the combatants, battered and bruised, stood proudly, their strength undeniable.
Guy's Life Bar: 50% (Winner)
As the cheers of the crowd still echoed through the arena, Beerus stood tall, watching the celebratory atmosphere with an approving nod. The tournament had ended in a massive show of strength, but Beerus was already thinking ahead.
"Next year," he began, his voice booming across the arena, drawing the attention of every combatant and spectator alike. "We'll hold a battle royal for the strongest warriors of every country. I'll allow each kingdom to send their top ten fighters, and the battle will be fierce. This is a chance for every nation to prove their worth."
The announcement sent ripples through the crowd. The kings and queens exchanged uneasy glances. Though they had witnessed the sheer power of the Demon Lords, they had now realized that they, too, had to prepare for what was coming.
Beerus then continued, his voice filled with authority: "As for the Demon Lords, we will have another tournament like this, every five years. So don't get too comfortable. The next one will be even more brutal."
The Demon Lords themselves nodded with understanding. They knew that their status would be continually tested. The challenge was endless, but so was their strength. Guy exchanged a glance with Milim, and even Clayman seemed to appreciate the challenge ahead. They all realized that these tournaments would shape the future of Celesterra—and the world.
The Celebration in Celesterra
With the tournament concluded, the arena doors opened, and the guests and contestants were invited to join the celebration that Beerus had prepared. The streets of Celesterra were alive with festivity, as everyone—from the kings and queens to the Demon Lords and their generals—mingled with the common folk.
Food and drink flowed freely, with tables laden with the finest delicacies from every corner of the world. Beerus sat at his usual throne, watching with a satisfied grin as Milim was running around, pulling Dino into another drinking competition, while Zerna and Erza chatted near the banquet tables, exchanging stories of the battles. Carrion was laughing with Draguel, sharing the tale of the fight that had led to their elimination.
The crowd had grown to respect the Demon Lords, now fully aware of the immense power they wielded, but there was also a sense of awe that permeated the air. Everyone realized that they were in the presence of gods, beings whose strength was unimaginable to the average mortal.
Luminous and Dino: A Laughing Match
Luminous, despite her earlier exhaustion from the battle, was in high spirits, laughing as she joined Dino in a conversation about the battle's unexpected twists.
"I really thought I had you with that last light burst," Luminous teased, nudging Dino with a smile.
Dino, still lounging on a cushion with a glass of elven wine, smirked, "You did… for a moment. But I was just playing with you."
The crowd laughed at his nonchalant response. To many, Dino's calm demeanor was more frightening than if he had fought seriously. He was a slacker, yes, but when it came to his power, he was far from lazy.
Beerus and Milim: A Father-Daughter Moment
In the midst of the merriment, Milim approached Beerus, the familiar, mischievous grin still on her face.
"Dad!" Milim shouted excitedly, grabbing his attention. "Next time, I want to fight more! I won't go easy on anyone!"
Beerus chuckled, his eyes twinkling with affection. "You were fantastic as always, Milim. But remember, it's not always about fighting. You have to be patient sometimes."
Milim stuck out her tongue playfully but nodded. Her respect for Beerus was evident. Despite being powerful in her own right, she knew that Beerus was the true king of Celesterra, and the idea of learning from him was an ongoing thrill.
The Kings and Queens: Awe and Respect
Meanwhile, the kings and queens of the world were gathered in a corner, discussing the outcome of the tournament. Many of them were still shocked by the sheer scale of the power they had witnessed.
"I never thought I would see someone like Guy in action," one of the human kings said, shaking his head in disbelief. "It's terrifying to think what he could do if he truly wanted to."
Another queen, this one from the elf kingdom, nodded. "And the Demon Lords... they are not just a title. They've earned it. Perhaps we need to strengthen our own armies before next year's tournament."
The elven queen shot a glance at Zerna, who was enjoying a drink nearby. The human king whispered, "I never thought we'd have to fight alongside them. But if they're this strong… we'd better start training our best."
A Toast to the Future
As the night grew darker, Beerus stood once again, raising his goblet high.
"To the future, to new challenges, and to the strength that brings us all together," he declared, his voice echoing across the entire celebration.
Everyone followed his lead, lifting their own drinks in a collective toast. The atmosphere was filled with cheer, camaraderie, and the shared understanding that the coming years would bring even more battles and tests of power.
The Demon Lords, Generals, kings, and queens all joined in the festivities, but deep in their hearts, they knew that the true challenges lay ahead. This was just the beginning of the cycle that would define Celesterra's future.
The Future Awaits
As the night wore on and the celebrations continued, Beerus stood apart for a moment, watching the revelry around him. His gaze swept across the joyful chaos of Celesterra—knowing that the next battle royal would only be the start. He had seen the potential in all those who fought and had helped shape the stage for the upcoming wars, tournaments, and trials.
But for now, as the lights flickered and the laughter rang through the streets, Beerus allowed himself a rare moment of peace, knowing the world would always be ready for whatever challenge he threw their way.
And as for the Demon Lords—well, they'd earned their respect, but the road ahead was long, filled with even more tests, and Beerus was eager to see what each would do next.
The Battle Royale for the countries was set for next year, but for tonight, they all celebrated in Celesterra.
