"Ladies and gentlen, the ti you have been waiting for has co," Pickle Berry said, broadcasting to every last view screen on Earth and the moon.
"The most awaited battle between the Overlord of Earth, Queenie, and the one-eyed demon spawn, Eryx, is about to begin.
They will be fighting in Saint Berry’s Arena."
The screens changed, showing a large arena.
Naturally, it was an entire planet turned into a fight arena. Of course, the na Saint Berry was just Pickle Berry making sure she hosted the first edition of the League of Defiance well.
A statue of her hovered atop the arena.
All who saw this just laughed.
They had found a liking for Pickle Berry after seeing how well she had been working over the weeks to ensure this competition went well.
"The rules are the sa. Either you surrender, or the one left standing is the winner. Of course, those afraid of death should know they are fighting in a virtual world, so death is not permanent.
Also, to parents, be sure to follow the PG rules, for the footage isn’t suitable for kids.
And to all warriors, be sure to watch this battle, for there will be a lot to learn from it." Pickle Berry smiled and let her words sink in for a while before speaking again.
"I don’t like to play around, so may the battle begin."
Right when Pickle Berry gave the order, Eryx, who was clad in dark armor, moved, his long sword trailing a wide arc that appeared before Queenie in an instant.
Queenie stood with a calm expression, clad in red leather armor.
The sword arc closes in rather fast...
If it were to be a nether stage warrior Eryx had attacked, they would’ve been severed before they knew how it happened.
However, Queenie stood there and cut the sword arc with her bare hand, crushing it.
Eryx didn’t falter, seeing his attack handled so casually.
He vanished and appeared behind Queenie and stabbed his sword at her shoulder while his right leg moved in a wide arc, aiming for her waist.
WHOOSH
Queenie turned into blood mist and vanished, reassembling herself 30 ters from Eryx. Both the sword stab and the leg swing missed.
This ti, Eryx narrowed his two fake eyes, and Queenie smiled.
"Do you understand?" Queenie asked.
"I do," Eryx replied with a nod. "However, I don’t believe you can use this technique of yours for an extended period of ti."
"And what makes you think that?" Queenie asked, maintaining her smile that could charm anyone.
"Because I have fought many vampires who used this technique, but in the end, they ran out of blood essence, and I killed them." Eryx smiled.
"Well, you are indeed right to assu that. However, you are forgetting sothing. I am not a vampire, Eryx. I am an Asura, aning I can do this."
Queenie extended her hand, and a pool of blood rose from the ground and transford into an identical copy of her.
Then, in a twist, the clone spoke,
"As an Asura, I have what we call the Blood Pool. All Asuras have that. This Blood Pool is like our personal reservoir that we fill with blood. The way to fill it is, of course, through slaughter." Queenie’s main body scoffed.
"I have killed hundreds of thousands, Eryx, and that ans my Blood Pool is now larger than you can imagine."
The one-eyed demon spawn raised his brow.
"This ans if I were to use Blood Mist continuously, even after ten years, I would never run out of blood." Queenie laughed and snapped her fingers.
The clone’s body dissolved back into blood, and then a sword was ford.
"However, people are counting on to fight, so I will not use Blood Mist." She swung her sword, and a large blood arc flashed out.
Eryx saw the attack, but he was slow to evade, so he tanked it with his sword by crossing it over his chest.
He was sent flying 2 km away.
"However, I will use Blood Step, allowing to do this." Queenie took one step and appeared 1 ter from Eryx, who used his movent step to move back.
However, when he thought he had moved 1 km back, Queenie was again standing before him. She didn’t attack; instead, she pointed at Eryx’s left arm...
"I am bleeding." It was now that Eryx noticed he was bleeding from Queenie’s Blood Arc strike.
"You are indeed bleeding. Do you know what this ans?"
Eryx shook his head, though he knew whatever Queenie was about to say was sothing he could not counter. Naturally, he had an idea.
"The reason why you bleeding will spell your doom is because, unless I run out of blood, you cannot stop the bleeding, and as long as you are bleeding, I can always follow you anywhere.
If you don’t believe , move back 2 km."
Eryx did as he was told, and to his shock, Queenie was standing 1 km from him again, smiling at him.
It beca plain as day that unless he could handle Queenie in close combat, he had already lost. However, he also had sothing to use against her.
"I am an undead, which ans you can’t kill . If I manage to tire you, then I might just win," Eryx said, regaining so stance.
However, Queenie rely smiled.
"Oh, Eryx dear, hasn’t your master said anything about the Asura Borns to you?" Queenie laughed. "You see, we Asura-borns were created for one thing, and that is to kill.
Naturally, that ans we can kill anything we face in combat. Anything, including undead. So Eryx, if you are counting on your undead immortality, don’t. I can kill you before you know it."
Eryx took a deep breath, and then he looked at his sword.
He then looked at Queenie and shook his head. "You are a monster."
"I know." Queenie laughed and then swung her sword, cutting Eryx in half, vertically.
As if to tell everyone she could indeed kill the undead, Eryx woke up on the outside, a smile playing on his face. This shows he had died inside Oracle.
"She is even more dangerous than the stories portray her," Asmodeus, who was standing beside Eryx’s Oracle Pod, said.
"Indeed," Eryx replied. "I felt so small before her. It was like staring at the face of danger, knowing no matter what you do, you can never overco it."
Asmodeus smiled. Just like every last person on Earth, he too was in shock, unsure of how to quantify Queenie’s display against Eryx.
Many expected to watch a great battle; however, with just a few displays, Queenie had shown everyone what true terror looked like.
"They say the Asura is a race that never tires in battle. Initially, I never believed that, but after seeing what big sister Queenie had just shown us, I think I am now a believer," Pickle Berry said.
She turned to the caras and, with a smile on her face, chose to give so comnts. A couple of minutes later, she announced the next battle, which would be happening early, considering Queenie had used re minutes to win.
The second battle was between Nyxthar and Veylor. It lasted for just ten minutes, with Nyxthar winning by beheading Veylor.
He had proven to many that with a good understanding of one’s abilities, even if the opponent is unkillable, you will always find a way to kill them.
Veylor tried to use his speed, but Nyxthar used the void against him.
The last battle, however, was one that was promised to be a good one. After all, it was between sisters, Miriam and her big sister, Vampire Queen Tifa.
