Location Sky Blossom City, Whiteburn Manor, East Wing, Family Arena
Just when everyone thought Pax was sitting ducks waiting for the inevitable, suddenly a pair of chanical angel wings popped up on the back of the golem and it took flight the next second.
The appearance of the wings was another shock to the audience especially the demigod worshipers, they all started to express their faith in different ways so knelt so bowed while so prayed, all in all, they firmly started to believe that Pax was the ssenger of the demigod Micheal Angelo.
Paul, who thought that he had already won was dealt with a heavy emotional blow seeing the golem grow a pair of wings and take flight. Now he started to bla himself for relaxing his guard, seeing the golem immobile and allowing it to escape. This way the field card white dwarf sun terra was useless no… gritting his teeth he thought out loud, “I thought of saving this but now I have no choice left.”
“Field card: White Dwarf sun core”
…
[Caution: Iron Flesh is experiencing an imbalance due to the unresponsive arms and legs… current flight condition can only be maintained for 3 minutes maximum..]
[Caution: Due to imbalance and unstable flight accuracy of Iron Flesh has reduced by 66%…]
Hearing this prompt Pax did not think much and activated two cards at the sa ti, ” Skill card: Feather Weight, Skill card: Float”
[Card Na: Feather Weight
Card Type: Field Card (active)
Card Rank: C-rank, uncommon
Card Rating: 21-stars
Card Durability: [81/100]
Card Effect: when activated the target will gain the weight of a feather for 45 seconds, regardless of its mass.
Additional Effect: lesser Wind resistance.
Cooldown Ti: 60 seconds]
[Card Na: Float
Card Type: Field Card (active)
Card Rank: C-rank, uncommon
Card Rating: 24-stars
Card Durability: [82/100]
Card Effect: when activated the target will float for 30 seconds regardless of its mass.
Additional Effect: Lesser Wind resistance
Cooldown Ti; 85 seconds.]
There was a reason why Pax chose these two particular Cards even though they had such bad Card star rating and Card active period for a C-rank card, it was because of their additional effect lesser wind resistance and mostly because of the phrase ‘Regardless of target Mass’.
There are many featherweight and float cards in the market with better Card star rating and Card active period with amazing card effect but they all were useless for sothing weighing 20 tonnes.
Pax was a marksman and being restricted to an open plain arena was a disadvantage for him so he had planned to make use of Iron Flesh’s aerial system and gain distance from Paul by taking the battle to the boundless sky and bombard Paul with all the artillery power of Iron Flesh finishing the duel in flash.
As the two cards activated Iron Flesh beca weightless making it easier for the Iron flesh aerial system to manoeuvre Iron Flesh more effectively and its flight beca more stable reducing the error rate in Iron Flesh’s accuracy.
“Activate Weapon system, lock primary target Pual, Priority level: Elimination.” Ordered Pax to Iron Flesh’s A.I

Seeing that everything was set Pax was going to open fire on Paul but suddenly nurous prompts sounded in his head,

“Field card: White Dwarf sun core”
[Card Na: White Dwarf sun core
Card Type: Field Card (active)
Card Rank: C-rank, uncommon
Card Rating: 49-stars
Card Durability: [82/100]
Card Effect: when activated 300 ters of land surrounding the host will exhibit the 1/3rd of White Dwarf sun gravitational field for 30 sec
Additional Effect: The host is immune to the card effect.
Restriction: can only be used along with Field card: White Dwarf sun terra.
Cooldown Ti; 85 seconds.]
Once the White Dwarf sun core field card was activated the arena had completely turned into a White Dwarf sun, though the card info read it only displayed 1/3rd of the original White Dwarf sun core but once superimposed with White Dwarf sun terra this restriction was no longer valid.
The temperature in the field once again jumped to 10,800 Kelvin’s also this ti around there was another surprise the gravity of the arena increased by 50 fold affecting the Iron Flesh’s flight and making it lose height rapidly.
It was basic science that weight was the product of the mass of an object and gravity. So the weight of a feather changes with the gravity applied to it, so the feather will fall faster on the surface of a White Dwarf sun compared to the surface of the planet. So a feather will fall a little faster on the surface of a White Dwarf sun compared to the surface of the planet, so Iron Flesh was losing height but it was comparatively slower than falling under its actual weight. As for the float skill card, it was useless and invalid as it was not made for the gravity of the White Dwarf sun.
Because of this even though the Iron Flesh was under the card effect of featherweight and float it still fell to the ground faster than before and rapidly lost height comprising its automated aiming system.
…
Once the White Dwarf sun core field card was activated the arena had turned into small white Dwarf sun and the A-rank barrier surrounding it began to show signs of a breach. So the elites of the Whiteburn family stepped up to enhance the barrier so that it can withstand the thermal energy of a White Dwarf sun.
Seeing Paul’s ace and hidden card the crowd gasped in astonishnt and started to whisper,
‘Wasn’t Paul supposed to be the black sheep of the Whiteburn’s.’
‘Black sheep, more like a wolf in sheepskin.’
‘Exactly! though he is shaless to use the loophole in the rules of deathmatch, when it cos to life and death I will rather choose to be shaless than dead.’
‘Yep, sa here I would rather be a shaless person than a cold corpse.”
‘But I feel pity for Pax though..’
‘Shut up you heretic with Demigod watching over him nothing will happen to our ssenger…’
‘Fuck off, you damned religious nut…’
‘Yes! Who allowed this religious frantic inside… throw him out…’
‘Forget about that mutt! Witness the legendary fall of a genius… not every day do you get to see a brother kill brother in an arena and the fall of a genius. This is so worth it.’
‘A 16-year-old card soldier fuck! At that age, I was still picking my nose’
‘Forget about 16 years old, I am 33 now and still not a card soldier…’
‘To think a talent like that will fall here today, such a loss.’
‘Doesn’t the Whiteburn family care losing such talent and genius over a small dispute?’
‘You new to the city buddy, haven’t you heard the saying in the Whiteburn family… genius co and go only tough people last.’
‘Genius co and go only tough people last… Interesting but only a barbarian would say that!’
‘Whiteburn family is a barbaric family…’
‘If only such genius was born in my family… sigh! This world is so unfair…’
While the crowd buzzed excitedly watching the Iron flesh slowly crash to its demise… the Whiteburn twins were at their wit’s end. The Iron Flesh was in worse condition once it falls to the ground it may be the end. By luck even if the Iron Flesh survives… losing both of its arms and legs it was just a defenceless turtle on its back waiting to lt or be roasted to death under the temperature of the white dwarf sun.
…
While everyone thought the end was nearing, Pax who was inside the Iron flesh commanded, “switch to manual aiming system”
[Switching to manual aiming mode…
Switching to manual triggering mode… ]
Being a trained marksman the current situation was not a challenge for Pax but unfortunately, he could not test the capabilities of Iron Flesh’s automated aiming system.
Anyway utilizing insight forecast to its maximum Pax aid at Paul as the Iron Flesh slowly fell to the ground…
Thanks to the insight forecast Pax was able to guess all the error and the escape routes of Pual from the area under fire, allowing Pax to prepare the contingency plans, hopefully, which he would not have to use…
With that Pax fired at Paul and suddenly within 0.01 seconds the Left shoulder-mounted laser cannon and Right shoulder-mounted Gatling machine gun popped out of Iron Flesh’s back… While the Iron Flesh’s cheat armour retracted showing the Hidden fusion chest Gatling cannon and started to open fire without any delay or gap….
Left shoulder-mounted laser cannon fired a continuous laser beam and the Right shoulder-mounted Gatling machine gun fired a total of 230 energy bullets per second at Paul while the Hidden fusion chest Gatling laser cannon fired 6 continuous laser beams which due to the spin of the Gatling chanism of the Gatling laser cannon ford a laser beam drill… Together they blasted aiming at Paul and the smoke along with burnt sll filled the arena… Leaving the crowd blind and hungry for the results…
