《Aatrox, A God King in a Modern World.》60 - Event (Part 03)

Advertisement

Jude came back and told them that there was only one more fight before it was their turn to use the arena.

While they were talking, the boring fight was over. For the next fight, according to the judge, there were two disciples, of the same master, who had sworn that only one of the two would leave the arena alive. Apparently one of them had killed their master and the other swore revenge, when they met at this event, the disciple who wanted to take revenge almost attacked him where he stood, but knowing that if someone fought outside the arena would lead to unimaginable consequences, he forced the other disciple to go with him into the arena for them to solve themselves.

Hearing about the story of these two reminded Aatrox of two ninjas he had fought against in his old life. The story was quite similar, but the difference in strength between the two ninjas and the two cultivators that Aatrox was seeing could not even be compared.

The battle began with the cultivator who wanted revenge (let's call him S) going after the killer cultivator (let's call him Z) while drawing his sword.

While S drew his sword, Z drew the small knives he always kept up his sleeves. While Z was trying to hold the sword of S for a fraction of a second, he threw the other knife into S's chest to try to hurt him. S realized Z's intentions and quickly retreated a little, just enough to deviate from the knife.

To Aatrox's surprise, for the first time he saw a spell, when Z used a large amount of energy to increase his speed by using the shadows to decrease friction with the air. S was prepared for this, since he knew most of Z's abilities and also using a lot of energy, he decreased the weight of his sword, making it half ethereal. With the fastest sword, S diverted Z's knife a little, but Z took another knife from his sleeves and used it to make a cut in S.

Seeing the wound on his arm he became angry, for he remembered the wounds he had found on his master and for a fraction of a second he lost his rationality. Z did not miss this opportunity and took the moment of inattention to make another cut in S with his knife.

Z hadn't said a single word since the beginning of the battle opened his mouth to say. "...brother, our master's path was fruitless and weak. Not even you, his son, could follow in his footsteps and use the blade he possessed to seek revenge... I see nothing but hypocrisy...".

After saying these words, Z used half the remaining energy he had to further increase his speed with the shadows and knock out S. Without anyone stopping him, Z walked out of the arena being watched by everyone.

Aatrox found the battle very interesting. He had seen that they had wasted a lot of energy during the battle. Those kinds of skills they used were a little useful, but nothing more. They would probably not be able to use these skills in a prolonged struggle or they would run out of energy enough to protect themselves when it was over. But despite all that, Aatrox thought it was an interesting fight. The blade techniques and control they had was levels above those presented in the previous fight.

Now that the fight was over, Aatrox turned to look at the companions he had made and became interested in the reaction they were presenting. James was thinking deeply about the struggle with a determined eye on his face, probably wondering if he could fight these two cultivators.

Already Dylan had his fists clenched tightly, showing a face of extreme determination. Suddenly he turned to Aatrox and showed a smile. He was dying to fight with someone, and that someone was standing right next to him. "Shall we go?" He asked.

"Of course, that fight only served to increase my thirst for battle." Aatrox replied with his inexpressive face, but in the background, one could feel a slight trace of anticipation.

When the two climbed into the arena, the judge read the role he had received from the organizers of the arena and was surprised by the name that was presented there: "Now we will have Dylan Hall, one of the most powerful cultivators of the same age group in our state, coming from the city of Hill Valley just to attend our Annual Meeting, will fight against the swordsman." He said with a confused look on his face.

Aatrox hearing this facepalmed as he turned to Jude who smiled at him making a V-sign with his fingers. The audience who thought he was a little familiar now had their mouths open. They never imagined that the person who was talking to James' group was the swordsman of the online series that they had seen.

Some did not understand the reference, because they did not watch Episode 1, and were asking the others who showed curious reaction to know who it was, but they did not get any satisfactory answer due to the shock that people received. They could only keep doubting themselves for now and wonder why they were calling him a swordsman if he hadn't even brought a sword.

Dylan who was holding the laughter finally calmed down and formed a fighting pose. Aatrox seeing this also became serious and began to observe his opponent while looking for some opening he could use during the battle while waiting for the judge to declare the battle to begin.

"If you have a gun, you'd better take it." Aatrox said with his usual distant face.

"I won't need that." Dylan responded with confidence in his own strength.

"Let the battle begin!" the judge said as he stepped out of the way, not to get caught in an instant onslaught, since he knew Dylan's power level.

But to the audience's surprise, neither of them moved. The two were looking for an opening, but among them, Aatrox was the first to find an opening. In order not to waste the opportunity, Aatrox ran towards Dylan while he seemed to be holding an invisible sword.

...

Jude looked at the battle with curiosity. He knew Dylan's strength very well and knew that if they fought each other seriously, the battle would probably end with the two exhausted, or even crippled. Their strength was very close, so to be able to open up an advantage without external factors, they would have to use the most powerful techniques they had in the arsenal.

Jude turned to look at James, who had already witnessed Benjamin's strength and asked him. "What do you think will happen in this battle?"

James turned to Jude seriously and answered. "I think Dylan will lose horribly."

Jude looked unbelieving at James, he thought James would say the battle was going to be very close or something, but to his surprise, James said that Dylan, one of the strongest of this generation would lose. "What makes you believe that?"

"We've both fought before." James, who was already waiting for that reaction, answered.

"You guys have had a fight? How was it?" Jude asked curiously.

"None of us took the fight seriously, but because of the small difference we had, he had a complete advantage. If Dylan uses his secret weapons, he may have a chance to win, but since this is a friendly fight, I believe Dylan will lose badly if no outside intervention happens." James responded by surprising Jude.
