《Devour》Chapter 16: Fist Fight
Advertisement
Aera produces a streak of light from the glowing spears and the trail of bright particles that she leaves in her wake. She hits the ground, and such an impact can release energy plus half of the fire explosion that the umbrella absorbed, eliminates thirty students in the process.
"Wow! That is breathtaking! Did anyone wish after seeing that beautiful 'Wishing star' by the Goddess of Destruction? Cause I did!" The announcer announces in high spirit.
The scoreboard is posted everywhere in the colosseum to track students still down fighting to be the best. About 275 students are eliminated, and the remaining students fight to be in the top 100 for 1st-year ranking.
Aera gets back to the group happily asks, "Did you guys saw that?"
"Your awesome, Sis!" Jio gives a high five and a thumbs up.
"Well, you see, Hubby and I practiced that move!" Aera happily lets out winking at Mickey while everyone tries to avoid their group since they just witnessed how strong Aera is.
A Blood tribe named Michel continues to rampages in the stadium, making Dino manifests a seething resentment towards his fellow tribesman and said, "Brothers and sister, I need to take care of some business."
"Do you need any type of help? " Jio asks with a concerned face knowing the real reason he needs to join the fight.
"This time, I can manage it," Dino assures as he smiles and immediately turns ugly as soon as he looks away from them.
Dino doesn't like Michael since he never listens to the tribe's elders, bullies anyone weaker than him, and rampaging like a wild beast in today's event. Dino charges towards Michael ignoring everyone since he only attacks those who attack him first. The blood tribe is always one-year training ahead of everybody because of their blood ability.

"Dino! Are you having fun?" Michael asks, smiling like a madman, and never stops punching his opponent's face until light covers their bodies, saving them from the monster in front of them while Michael thinks they are taking the fun away from him.
"You dare disobey the Elders! Can't you see they can't fight anymore! Lucky they get transported to safety all the time," Dino let out as he points at the elders.
"But this is Battle Royale; we fight till we reach the peak!" Michael replies on his defense.
Michael grabs Dino's head and slams it in the ground, then Dino pulls his foot, causing him to fall in his back. Michael attacks Dino without hesitation as he punches Dino in the face and does it again, but he blocks it as Dino hits back. Dino stands up and beats Michael's face while Michael secretly takes his battle-ax out from his universal bag and swings it to Dino, leaving a deep wound across the chest.
At the same time, Michael's body sucks blood from him and gets healed to his peak and gives him pure energy that flows around his body, making him three times stronger than before and kick Dino with all his strength sending Dino flying through the remaining students to the arena's wall.
Who wouldn't think that Michael doesn't care about anyone but only care about getting strong?
Michael dashes toward Dino while randomly swinging his battle-ax and eliminating few contestants in the way. When Dino saw this madness, he activates his blood ability, making him equal to Michael since he waited for the right moment.
Dino focuses half of his power in his battle-ax and another half on the body and charges toward Michael. As soon as the two Blood Tribe clash, an explosion like Aera's "Death Star" eliminates more contestants. This move causes any Blood Tribe to drain their strength unless blood pours to their body, called Blood Bath. The two continue to a fistfight after dropping their battle-ax that lasts for five minutes as Dino activates his brass knuckle.

His left hand glows that surprise Michael since everyone only has one soul weapon in their tribe capable of transferring blood power from the body to the weapon: The battle-ax. The energy that flows in Dino's brass knuckle is from the previous fight in the mansion, and hitting Michael's face decapitates him on the spot while everyone is watching.
"..." Everyone, including the announcer, watches in silence in Dino's direction while Michael's head rolls in the arena.
An old-looking man with white hair and wrinkled skin stands up and starts to talk, "We the Blood Tribe made this decision, I the third Elder of Blood Tribe; please accept my sincere apologies in advance for the unsavory outcome in this beautiful day."
