The Strongest Hero Was Raised By A Demon Lord

It's early in the morning.

I feel something patting my head. Oh, it is comfortable. I'm still sleepy and haven't opened my eyes yet. But, the things that rubbing my head was getting harsh as I wanted to continue to sleep. It is still dark but it's early in the morning. I soon realized, I was lying on someone's thigh. Oh no, this can't be Luc-chan…

*pat….pat*

"Oii little Lylia, get up. It's daytime, how much longer do you want to sleep on my feet?"

I opened my eyes right after hearing that words out from Luc-chan. I think I've slept on him all night. Oh gosh. When I just opened my drowsy eyes, Luc-chan was holding and patting my head to wake me up but, what the hell with his other hand!!! He was holding my chest.

"KyaAAAA!!!!!" I immediately get off from him and then get up and I smacked Luc-chan's cheek with all my strength. Paaakkk!!!*slap sound…

His head didn't even move an inch after I slap him that strong. Moreover, he still in his gloomy face like usual and still dare to look at me. I was standing before him. My face has turned red as I feel ashamed and mad at Luc-chan.

"Why you… you touched me there…sh*t Luc-chan. You should just call my name instead of doing some pervert things!!!"

"Oi little monkey Lylia. I've called out your name 3450 times and yet you're still sleeping like a lifeless corpse on me. What else do I need to do besides use this effective method to wake you up? Hehehe. Plus, I'm almost late to prepare our breakfast you know. Now, take a shower upstairs, don't go to school with the scent of your warm fishy smell and change your rotten uniforms. Don't you said you have another contest today?" he just spoke quickly while twitching his red cheek by my hard slapped and looking at me with no emotion.

Luc-chan stand up and turn on the light as he does his usual work in the early morning. Well, I'm still nagging to him as I mad to Luc-chan but he ignores me and keeps doing his own work in the kitchen. I was so red, looking at Luc-chan. Not long after that I go upstairs and then take a shower. Luc-chan still in the kitchen as he prepared our breakfast. It is true that I have a match today, but that pervert Luc-chan just ruined my good morning. Heih, guess I can't do anything about that. Because that's how Luc-chan is. It was my fault too that I slept on him that night. But, you know sometimes I feel lucky that I slept on his comfortable thigh for once. Hhahah, no, no, no. I can't think that way. He's a pervert demon anyway. I have to think about my worth match today so, maintain positive Lylia.

After I finished showering, I searched for my shirt that was sewn by Luc-chan but I notice something else. It was my sword! Luc-chan already fixed my almost broken sword. Oh my, I didn't remember telling this to Luc-chan. Well, guess I'll thank him later on.

In the early ruined morning for Lylia, actually was a good thing for her. Hmm, well I guess I'll have to forgive him again. She still can hear his guardian voice. Even though they always fight, happy together or even they're in trouble. Luc-chan will always be the first one she'll see in the morning. In such a simple house, the atmosphere in the early morning was very pleasant. The sounds of forest insects, naturally occurring dew,the river flowing quietly and the sin rising. The house is not too cold. Bright lights illuminated the living room and kitchen, the atmosphere was quiet and only the sound of the cooking pan, flowing water and, a pair of couples who lived happily in the same house who seemed to be having breakfast now. I was sitting with Luc-can at the dinner table. Luc-chan is drinking his coffee and read some thick book. Well I didn't know he can read hahha. I am having my breakfast but I just said it out loud just to thank him for fixing my sword.

"Luc-chan!!!!"I called him after I finish chewed the bread.

"Hmm?" He is still reading his book as he is fallen deep into reading.

"I'm sorry for what I did earlier and… Thank you!!!" I said.

"Hmmm? For what? You thank me for touching your little breast?" he said that with his gloomy face and not even feels embarrassed.

"Damn it you Luc-chan! I didn't thank you for that… and it is not little..." I feel irritated with Luc-chan now.

"Whatever you say, just finish your breakfast." he replied.

"Ahhhh!!!, Just forget it." I was mad. He just ruined my mood. But I get better not long after that.

"By the way Lylia. You are free to use your Qi in the next match."

"Ehh? But didn't you told me to keep this secret?"

"Nope, it has been revealed after all. You've shown to your opponent yesterday. So, it's fine to use it anyway."

"Ahh, I feel bad about that. I accidentally had to use more than I have been told. Hmmm." I feel upset when Luc-chan said it like that.

"Don't worry Lylia. Your strength is unbeatable even for an Eiryuu. I intend to limit your Qi yesterday to see how much can you hold for the match. But, according to your story yesterday, I didn't expect you could even beat a top five Nanaryuu with barely just in thirty to forty percent of you Qi. Moreover you were just using Yin energy. That's really impressive to me."

"Ehh???? So, I actually can use more than that? You little moron Luc-chan. You should just have allowed me to use more than thirty percent. My opponent was too strong yesterday and I almost got defeated by him. Oh gosh, you're demon bastard."

"Hahaha. Very well Lylia. At least you've made a new record. You beat that Nanaryuu without even using your full strength."

"Hmmm. You might be right too. Now, I just feel like I'm on a different level to them."

"Anyways, do you think I've trained you for a month only to reach this incomparable power?"

"Well, I only learn Yin energy though."

"For your real result, you're now a way more powerful than any Eiryuu participant. But, don't underestimate your opponent even they're an Eiryuu. Their strength could be at the same level as Kamiryuu. Yin is a positive energy which is why you can control its power. However, it's still not enough compared to Yang energy. Plus, you still need to train harder your physical body."

"Eh, this is the level that I barely have manage. But I need to train more? Hmm hmm hmm."

"By the way, you still haven't used my mana, have you?"

"Yes. Why?"

"That' good. Don't use it until it is really really, really, really, really …"

"In a critical situation right? I know I know." I continue Luc-chan's word as I already heard it a thousand times every day.

"Alright. Hopefully, you could survive again in today's match." replied Luc-chan.

"I'll definitely win again today. I think I would like to limit my strength in thirty percent again. It's a pretty good way to hide my full power. Ahahhaha"

"You have talked too much. Just finished your breakfast and go already."

"Ehh? One last thing I wanted to asked Luc-chan pleaseee???" I said this with my innocent eyes.

"...…..….What?" responded Luc-chan.

"Will you be coming to see my match?" I was hoping that Luc-chan could come to my school again and see my performance in the battle field.

Luc-chan stares at me without any expression and says nothing.

"Would you please?" I asked for his kindness again.

"...hmm, only if you'll made to the semi final."

"Yes!!! Ehhh?!! Wait, wait, wait. Semi-final?"

"Hmmm"

"I'm not sure that I could make it to the semi-final. But, I'll try my best. As long as you'll come to my match, I'll do anything to make it to the semi-final."

"Okay stop your nonsense right now and finish you breakfast or I'll rub your little breast again."

"Kyaa!!!! Pervert lolicon demon!!!!"

On my way to school, as usual I'll have to walk across forests and rivers before heading out into the highway. I take a deep breath and continue walking it's always the best when I walked out from the forests. The air outside is very fresh. The sun will rise soon, misty skies and dew drops on the leaves and roads. What a fresh morning here. After walking in about half an hour, finally, I've arrived in front of the school. Well, the first thing I noticed right after I enter the gate, I saw president Mila and Mario was having a conversation at the gate. I wanted to greet them but I guess I'll just pass them instead. It'll be strange if I just interrupt their conversation right? So I just walk entered.

Every girl in the school kept their eyes on Mario as he's one of the hottest guys in our school. But not in my eyes though. I thought I'm going to go to the preparation room instead but suddenly someone has approached me from behind and he walks beside me. That was the hottest Mario. It seems like he has been treated and now he's in good condition after the enormous battle we had yesterday. Now, we've becomes the attention to everyone. Oh gosh, this is terrible. Why did Mario-senpai suddenly appear now? Didn't he was talking to President Mila just now?

"Yo miss Lylia. What's up?" that hot cold-hearted Mario was greeting me for real.

"Ehh? Mario-senpai?"

"Hey, I just want to know something you know what I mean.."

"What are you talking about Mario-senpai?"

"It's rare to find a student in this school like you. A Qi user. I would like to know more about it. So, we might have a conversation if you wouldn't mind?"

"Ehh? You still remembered that? Ahhh, but I'm also still new to these Mario-senpai. Why don't you ask Gil-san about Qi? He might know about it more than me." I'm trying to avoid he's invitation as he got the attention of people. I'm afraid people will talk about it and spread some rumors about me.

"Hmmm, well I guess I'll ask him later on. So you're going to the preparation room isn't it miss Lylia?"

"Yes, maybe my friends are waiting for me there. Furthermore, I want to check who'll be my next opponent." I answered.

"Well, what a coincidence. Let's go there together. I wanted to check on my next opponent too." He replied with his usual cold-hearted expression.

So, we walked together to the preparation room. I can't against his invitation after all. Raph-chan and the others might be surprised and start thinking something is happening between us. As we walked to the preparation room we both have a conversation about the match and of course those females stares at us all the way to the preparation room. Mario-senpai looks like a handsome man but he has a wolf's ear. Well, I can't deny it that he's a wolfmen after all. His clothes also look cool because of his stylish look. He put his hand in his jacket pocket all the time. If I recall, his completely different in the battle compare to his usual look.

"I am really amazed by your strength miss Lylia, I haven't felt that powerful strike since I started a battle with the same league opponent."

"Ahh, that's just a lucky strike... maybe heheeh, but didn't you feel upset after you admit your defeat yesterday Mario-senpai? you must really hate me by now."

"Nope, I've never regret what I've done. You deserve to win the match. Moreover, I want to learn Qi too. I think it is great."

"Hmm, hope you'll someday learn it hahah."

"Anyways I wanted to know more about your best friend too. Especially that one from Aurora family. She's quite strong too."

"Ahh you mean Raph-chan. Alright I guess I'll introduce you to her later."

"That's great thanks."

"My pleasure."

Now, we already entered the preparation room. Some of the participants who's on their preparation noticed our presence. But we ignore them. It seems like Raph-chan and the others are having a serious conversation there. They seat on the bench. Mario-senpai and I come to them.

"Good morning everyone! Look who's coming here!" I greet my friends.

They were all shocked.

"Oh my oh my, who else if it isn't Mario-senpai. Perhaps you already attracted to me?" that maniac queen joking, feeling surprised that Mario would come here.

"Huh ma..ma…Mario-senpai!!!" Raph-chan and Layla said it out loud together.

"Good morning you girls. It seems like you have a lovely friends around here miss Lylia."

"Arhhh hehhehe, they're just joking please sit down Mario-senpai."

Mario sits beside Raph-chan and he stares at the nervous Raph-chan.

"Raph-chan, Mario-senpai wanted to know you more. So, take time and have some conversation."

"About me?...y…ye…yes!" that blushing Raph-chan turns red as Mario-senpai was too closed to Raph-chan.

While they're having their conversation I push Layla and Seren to the other side.

"Well, Seren what you got? I mean have you seen my next opponent?" I asked.

"Heihh, you just ruined my pretty look just now. Oh my love Mario…" she's joking and talked some nonsense thing.

"This is the list Lylia. About your next opponent…." Layla gave me the list.

"Why?" I ask while I'm searching for my name on the list.

"Your opponent was mad scyther. Rumia Camilla!" Layla mentioned the name in trembling.

"What!!!!" I was shocked.

Rumia Camilla. She was horrible. The most terrifying female student ever. Moreover, she's Mario-senpai's classmate. Even Mario-senpai and Raph-chan are having fun in their conversation but Mario-senpai's ears are sharped as he heard we talked about my opponent. then, he interrupts us.

"Ahh so, your opponent is Rumia-chan."Mario said to me.

"Eh? You know her right Mario-senpai?"I asked him instead.

"Yup. She's an Eiryuu ranked top ten in the fighter role. She also helds the title Mad Scyther as she always uses a huge scythe. Rumia-chan is my best friend though I could say. Maybe." Mario-senpai said as he showed some cold expression.

"Mad Scyther huh?" I wonder.

"Is she really strong?" asked Seren.

"Of course. She's strong despite her tiny appearance. I mean she's just the same height as miss Lylia and miss Raphtalia but, don't underestimate her. She could move faster than me and even my Force Mode almost can't withstand her dangerous act."

"I know that. Rumia-senpai is really famous in our academy too. She was the only one who had a mad look. Her face like a killer clown and her body…I've seen her battle before, there's a lot of scars and stitches on her body and her hand. Thinking about Rumia-senpai makes me tremble. I didn't expect that I'll be battling with her today." I said it with my serious expression.

"Just an advice miss Lylia. Once you're in the battle field, do not ever attack her from a long range. You'll be in trouble once you let her playing with you when you're far away from her."

"Does that mean, she's weaker in close combat?" I asked.

"Not really. I can't guarantee that she's weak but, the risk of getting damage is low if you're closed enough to her."

"Is that so?"

"Lia, I hope you'd be careful this time. Because I've heard that all the matches she had win, she never left anyone who still hasn't been hurt yet. What's worst, one of our students once being hospitalized for three months because of a deep wound."

"She seems so strong."

"I'm warning you miss Lylia. She does not just seem strong but she is truly strong. She trained insanely all her life. She even ended up being a Goryuu when she' was twelve."

"What the hell with this woman. Damn it. She's so strong!!!"

"Oh my oh my, I'm so lucky that I'm competing in a party ahahahha. Not like the solo battle."

"Hmmm"

"Anyway, I hope you could survive from her. That's all."

"Lia, wait for me later on. I'll watch your match after I end my match."

"Speaking about your match, who was your opponent?"

"Ahh, my opponent today quite strong too. I'm looking forward to battle with Isla-senpai."

"Isla!!!! Did you mean Isla Odin the Arrow Queen?" I was shocked.

Isla Odin the Arrow Queen. She's a Nanaryuu marksmen top three in our school. Rumors said that she could shoot her opponent without even looking at them and they said that she conquer the battle field range. Isla-senpai is also famous for her appearance as she is one of the hottest female heroes. Isla is a quiet person. It is rare to hear her voice. Moreover, people are hard to noticed her presence in the battle field.

"Yes exactly. My match was held on the 10th. I guess I better didn't go outside and sit here waiting for my match."

"I see. I'm fired up to see your match later Raph-chan."I said.

"Yes."

We're having a conversation in the preparation room until 8 am. Mario-senpai excuses himself. He said there's someone waiting for him so, he left us. Layla and Seren go to the other preparation room as they are waiting for their match too in the party battle. I'm really amazed by Layla and Seren. They manage to win their first round together with their party. Anyways, now here I am watching some other match from other students while eating some junk foods that I bought in the morning. We are sitting on the bench and watching the battle. So boring here. Meanwhile, I keep thinking about my next opponent. I wonder how was this system work.

"Raph-chan, could you explain to me again about the system of match selection? I'm quite confused about this."

"Ahh, alright. This year's match selection is completely different. Remember that I told you we were able to challenge a Kamiryuu once we beat an Eiryuu."

"Yes I remember that."

"Actually, they have the power to arrange and randomly picked our opponent according to our league. In the first match, our opponent was selected randomly by the Ten Kamiryuu candidates but they must choose the opponent the same level as us. Our opponent might be below us but they also might be above us. However, if one successfully wins the first round, they'll battle in the second round. Our opponent in the second round was picked differently and not the same as the first round. The Ten Kamiryuu will choose our opponent through our first match analysis. So, the opponent in the second round is actually could be the same level as us. The second match could be said that it is around that test our strength against opponents who have a level similar to ours."

"Ahhh, that's why in the second round the opponent picked could be predicted. But, I didn't expect that my opponent is Rumia-senpai. The Ten Kamiryuu think that I am at the same level as Rumia-senpai ? oh gosh. Wait a minute? Is Rumia a red mana user?"

"Yes she is a red mana user. Wow, that's amazing Lia. I didn't know you know about these things too as you always sleep in the classroom while we are having a class. Ahhaha."

"Hmmm, I just remembered about that. Luc-chan told me last night but, I quite didn't remember something. Maybe he said about black mana?"

"Ehh? Black mana? Lia, where did you hear that? You didn't know about black mana?" she suddenly pulled me to a corner where no one was and whispered to me.

"Ehh so black mana is exist? Oh my, I thought I was dreaming last night. Because when Luc-chan explained to me about types of mana, I barely remembered until red mana. Then I fall asleep. Hehehe."

"You can't say it out loud or people will targeting you. So, you heard that from Maou-san?" Well, Raph-chan means Luc-chan actually.

"Yes of course. Why are you afraid?"

"No wonder about him. He's a demon after all. Anyway, black mana is a mana that completely different than any other mana. They are darkness, they create evil, they create devil, they create the destroyer and 10 000 human and beasts aren't enough to stop them in a war. They're evilll…"

"Hey, isn't that the same as red mana?"

"I've told you, it is not the same. Moreover, they are demon. We human and beasts can't live together with the demon."

"But, Luc-chan is a demon. He is not bad."

"Err… maybe you're right… anyway, don't ever say that to anyone, got it?"

"Okay okay, I get it. I just wonder about that. Is it just destroying? Hmm isn't just the same as red mana?"

"Better you ask Maou-san. I'm sure he'll tell you. Even though he's a demon. Now, Let's go to watch some match."

"Heehh??? Guess there's nothing I can do. My match is stilllllll too far."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On the other side….

Seren's team is in the middle of their match. They were three people in each group. Now, there are only two groups that will be fighting on the battle field which makes it 6 people on the battle field.

That is their information regarding their new status. This is the second match for Seren's team. Now, they are on the battlefield. Moreover, they now feel more intense on the battlefield after they know each other's status. The battle field is now getting louder by the audience cheers. They haven't moved yet but they've ready grabbed tightly to their weapon. Seren is calm as ever while her teammate, Olivia and Aria seems tense. The battlefield change to tense by the staring of the eyes. While for team B Mateo also seems to calm and his teammates are taking it seriously. The leaves flying in the air were falling apart. Until the last leaves touch the ground.Whooooooshhh.That's their starting even though the referee had given them a sign of "battle start" 7 minutes earlier.

They have already planned this. They mark each other opponent. Mateo and Seren were charging directly into each other and they begin to fight swords first. They seem like testing out their opponent in the early match. Not just Mateo and Seren make the first move but their teammates also. The match is epic in the early battle. They're just testing out their opponent by showing their skill in using weapons. Mateo, a beast or lionmen. He has the face of a human half lion. Apparently, he has the face of a lion, his teeth are pointed, he has the ears of a lion, his hair is thick brown and it covers his shoulder. He wore the warrior armor, holding a scary black large machete, his feet are the feet of a wild beast size and his eyes are also very fierce. The muscles of the body tighten each time he grabbed his machete and land a blow to Seren's blade. What's interesting he had a tail.

Seren is a girl with red half-body armor who was shorter than Mateo. She is now withstanding someone who is bigger than her tiny body. But that is not bothering Seren. What bothering her is her teammates. She worried about them because she knows that chances to win this match are 10 percent and 90 percent they'll lose this. However, she put her trust in her own team members. No matter what will happen, Seren never lets the guy he fighting now to touch her teammates.

Mateo was huge and he is also a fearsome guy. He hits even harder each time Seren repels his blow. Mateo's action is truly a wild beast as he takes a big step and he swung his machete widely to land a great blow on Seren. But, Seren's passive ability is to return back the attack by his opponent. That's why Seren chose to mark Mateo as his opponent. At the right side of Seren, Olivia only uses a magic brandishes which is the same like an ax and the same size of an ax but, it has the edge of a big cleaver or you can just imagine it was a something like a knife that used to cut the meat stick to an ax. That's Olivia's weapon. She mastered her brandishes as she spin, swinging and hit her opponent using both sides of her brandishes.

Olivia is a human witch. She had purple straight hair, a half-kimono outfit as she wore a short thighs. Her legs are where she puts her bardiches. She had 3 bardiches, the two of them is still on both side of her feet while she is holding the other one.

Olivia has a charming appearance even though she shows a serious face while fighting her opponent. Her opponent is Eli. Eli is a female human mage who plays the role of mage and support in Mateo's team. The brilliant Olivia has chosen Eli to be her opponent because she knows that she could stop and keep Eli busy. Eli was famous for her assists. She can summon a first-class servant. That's why Olivia will try to stop her. Moreover Eli doesn't a close combat fighter and that should not be a problem for Olivia. The only things that make Olivia have a hard time to deal with Eli was Eli's dangerous magic trap. Every time Eli creates seven magic circles on the ground randomly, something sharp will come out from the ground.

Eventually, it was Eli's trap magic [ STONE FLOWER ]. Each time the green circles activate in Eli's area, there'll be 7 magic circles appear on the ground. That curious magic circles will produce something sharp, long and massive rocks in every circle. That's what they also call it a space controller. A magic that required large area and it appear anywhere as the desire of one or the user. That's what makes Olivia facing difficulty getting near to Eli. Plus, Eli still didn't show her trump card as Eli was well known by her rapid assist.

Let's move on to other teammates of Seren. Aria, she's a tank fighter. Her appearance was pretty good. She's not an ugly ogre but the opposites of ugly I can say. She's almost like President Mila but actually, she is not. She had a blue sky skin color, tattoo on her left hand, and her dark blue twist hairstyle. She wore an armor but it's not too heavy for her. Moreover, she's sexy as her body was fit and a lot of muscles. Her weapon is a hand buckle. It was made by steel and the buckle was put on Aria's both hands. Aria could move faster as she dashes over and over to confuses her opponent.

Aria's opponent is nevertheless, Sebastian Rei a vampire. He is an assassin. Rei uses a special thread used by a murderer. It was a roll of invisible yarn. Apparently, the opponent can't see where is Rei's weapon but actually, he is holding his weapon all the time in on his hand and his body. He was in a black suit, black messy hair, red lips and whiter skin. Plus, he had a strange habit of scratching his messy hair every time his head itch. They're now apparently busy fighting each other. Seren still hasn't used up her real power. Moreover, her expression shows Mateo that she is calm and not afraid of him.

"Ho ho ho, you sure are the one who's not afraid against me huh maniac queen?"

"Oh my oh my, the lion actually can talk all this time. Hihihhhi, first time on par with me?"

"Damn it. You're quite a big trash talker human."

"According to my observation… well I mean this match, you'll absolutely lose you know hihihihi. By the way, it is not too late to surrender right now" Seren actually know her team has only a little chance to win. But, she's just playing with her opponent to overcome her nervousness because she still believes in 10 percent chance of winning this battle.

"Well, we'll see about that Lady Seren the maniac queen."

Their sound of striking each other weapon is getting louder and furious. From the audience view, they're eventually seeing the little Seren withstand a huge beast Mateo. Seren can repel every strike that Mateo landed. They are equal in physical strength. Mateo keep striking and striking while she repels the blow that she could hold and avoid some strike that she can't hold.

Nonetheless, the same goes for Olivia and Eli. Eli still keeping herself far from Olivia. Olivia had no other choice but to use magic too. After being forced to step back by Eli, Olivia flickering to the other side as she avoiding that scary trap magic. She landed on the ground safely but at the same time she activates her magic as she draws out a magic circle on the ground that she landed [ KILLER BATS ]. A hundreds of killer bats appear from the portal created by Olivia. That killer bats look like a mere dark bad but their wings were made from steel. it was sharp as the edge of the sword. They are targeting Eli. While Eli focuses on the hundreds of bads who were flying over to her, Olivia takes this chance to get close to Eli.

Olivia uses a blink spell [ DOUBLE BURST ACCEL ] she blinks at the tremendous wave as she throws her body towards Eli. Olivia already fly and raised her magic bradiches as she points her magic into it to land a hit on Eli. But, it is not that easy opponent Eli quickly creates a triple red magic circle [ TORNADO FLAME ] which is the magic circles blow out a whirlwind of flame to all corners. It blows the killer bats and Olivia. That Eli feels a little relieved that she thinks she made it in time to counter Olivia and her killer bats at the same time. But it seems that it is not like what she is thinking.

"[ TRIPLE BURST ACCEL ]" \tOlicia was already 2 meters beside Eli.

"You think that I'll charge you that easy?" Olivia speaks to Eli.

"HUH!! [ BARRIER ]"

Eli was shocked that Olivia could avoid that huge and hot flame. She immediately uses a barrier spell to protect herself from being hit by Olivia. Pangg!!! The sound that was created when Olivia hit the barrier Of Eli.

"Damn it! You sure are faster." Olivia was triggered

"tch."Eli responded.

In the middle of defending herself just using a barrier and fighting with Olivia, Eli then uses her [ STONE FLOWER ]. It appears on the ground where Olivia stands. Right after Olivia notice that was Eli's magic, Olivia had no choice but to avoid it. She blink to the other place using her Double Burst Accel. That's a brilliant choice from these two. The audience also attracted to their battle. It was a fifty-fifty battle.

While for Aria, it seems like she is having a hard time too. The vampire Rei has already made a little scratch on Aria's armor. Aria can't keep up with the speed of Rei. Furthermore, Rei uses a lot of tricks on Aria. Somehow, Aria safe from the killer thread. She could avoid and hardened her body. And now, she is fighting in a close range with Rei. Rei keep using his palm to resist the punches and kicks from Aria bluntly. Almost like a professional vampire. He read every movement and attacking while defending his own body. The thread was sharp and it could hurt someone in an instant.

"Cutie Aria, aren't our stats are is in the same league? Why are your performance seems do not fit to your level?" Rei speaks with his arrogance voice as he underestimating Aria.

"Shut your dirty mouth vampire." Replied the furious Aria.

"Hmm, boring, boring, boring..." Rei could still talk while he attacking Aria.

Aria uses a European boxing style. She keeps her both hand protect her face and strike a punch but quickly protect back her face. Aria's body moves well where her feet move like she was having a pop dance. The buckle that Aria's wear seems had a little effect on Rei. It is not enough yet. Aria needs to blow harder and harder. After realizing that Aria couldn't make any damage to Rei if she keeps doing the same thing so, Aria unleashes her true power.The audience was startled by the terrible match.

[ GOD MOVE ]

This is a skill where Aria make her opponent to see her various move. That'll completely confusing her opponent when Aria moves in an unexpected move. Rei sees Aria was moving to the right side at the same time, Rei being blown from the left side by Aria heavy punches. That's Aria God Move. Aria keeps doing it and landed a hard blow on Rei. Rei couldn't do anything but to receive the damage from Aria. When Mateo notices what's happened to his comrades, they seem like they had planned this. Mateo then quickly strike the heaviest blow on Seren's blade as a wind wave created from the strike and the slashing sounds. But, Seren could hold it. Unfortunately, Mateo still had some tricky move. While holding on his heavy hit on Seren he punches Seren's chest. Seren was sent away to somewhere further as she was sent fly by the damn crazy punch from Mateo. Seren was lost consciousness after being hit.

"Seren!!" Aria and Olivia noticed that their leader was sent fly away.

"Now!!!!" shouted fiercely Mateo.

It seems they are doing according to their strategies. Eli raises her hand quickly and a huge green magic circles on the battle field appear. It was [ ELIZABETH AREA ]. Elizabeth Area is a magic that consumes a lot of mana. Moreover, Mateo has already shut down Seren for a while. Now, they'll finish Olivia and Aria as quickly as possible before Seren gain her consciousness back. Apparently, Seren lost her consciousness plus, her vital point was hit and that's why she already faint on the ground somewhere in the forest where she was blown to. Back to Eli's magic, this is a magic where she can teleport her comrades to anywhere in as long as her teammates are still in the area. Both of Seren's teammates were shaking in fear as the huge Mateo were being teleported by Eli. Eli changes Rei and Mateo place. Now, Olivia will have to fight Rei meanwhile, Mateo is now in front of Aria.

That huge lionmen beast Mateo swings his fearsome machete to Aria. Aria lower her body to avoid that wide swing. The power unleashed from Mateo suddenly increasing. Aria could merely avoid as much as she could and hit a punch when she sees an opening. But, that's doesn't affect him that much. Mateo strike a blow by blow. Every time he hit, Aria barely manage to escape from the blow. Mateo's power is now influencing Aria. Aria seems afraid of Mateo's strength as she could only avoid. That missed strike from Mateo break apart the ground as the ground shaking each time he landed a blow.

"Oi, oi, oi, you keep avoiding aren't you? Aren't you were their tanker? What a shame you little mouse. Hahhahhahh."

"Damn it. [ GOD MOVE ]!" Aria uses her skill again.

Aria is now moving unexpectedly and hit every vital point on Mateo's body. but Mateo didn't even affected by that. He keeps striking a missed blow as Aria hits him with a tremendous move.

"What are you doing there little mouse? You just scratch my itchy point there? Hahahah, guess I need to catch you up quickly right." Mateo was playing with Aria.

[ THUNDER ROAR ]

Thunder Roar is Mateo's skill. He uses this skill while Aria was still moving around him as she keeps blow some hit on Mateo. Because Mateo can't catch her at that speed. Mateo decided to use his fearsome skill. Mateo finally shows some of his skills. It was Mateo's roar. In the middle fighting with Aria, Mateo stands a pose as he is already to shout a louder roar. "ROAAAAARRRRRRR!!!!" right after he roar, numerous of dark thunder shooting from the sky to where Mateo is. A great wave was created from Mateo's roar as the ground cracked apart like there is a pressure on Mateos's area. Aria was stopped and stunned by the roar as she is now in the air. She was hit by the thunder and affected by the rough roar by Mateo. That fierce Mateo is now capable to fight against the lost consciousness Aria. He then strangled Aria's neck in the air.

"I guess I had fun with you just now so, let me some fun with you hahahahhahha!" said the scary beast Mateo while strangled Aria in the air.

Aria can't breathe and trying to resist. She now uses her little strength to hit the huge hand of Mateo. Then Mateo without mercy throws Aria to the air and finishes Aria with his enormous machete….

[ VENOM SAW ]

A big black venom come out from Mario's machete which he slashed cut the air. Aria was too afraid and can't do anything in the air. She uses a magic that hardened herself but it was not enough to reduce the damage she receive and she was blown away to nowhere. Aria is falling to the ground where she was six meters near to the fainted Seren.

"Well,well,well. The two little mice done and there's one left to go." Said Mateo who's watching Olivia.

Olivia still in the middle of the battle with Rei. Rei was slightly moving around his hand and keep avoid Olivia's brandiches. It was unfortunate for Olivia, that vampire Rei already pulled out his true intend where he's actually playing with his thread. He already put it on Olivia while they are in the middle of fighting in a close range. Then, Rei scratch again his stomach while laughing maniacally to Olivia.

Olivia was triggered by his action and charges directly to him with her Double Burst Accel to get close to Rei. However, that is what Rei intends to make Olivia do. He purposely making Olivia charges towards him to make her steps on the trapped he has already made earlier while fighting furiously with Olivia.

Olivia speculated that she could now hit Rei by using her brandishes now so, she already put some damage magic on it. Unexpectedly, Olivia who's now in front of the calm-arrogance Rei was tied up tightly. There is a hundred of invisible thread that tied Olivia. Now, Olivia can't do anything but feels pain. the thread is not something ordinary. It has been chanted by a magic spell which it absorbs mana. Olivia begins to weaken and fall on the ground consciously.

"You little trick vampire…ughh..."said Olivia who's now in trouble.

"Just finish her already Rei, we got to win this." Said Mateo to Rei while Eli still holding her magic to support her teammates.

"Heheheh, goodbye sweetie .." said Rei who thought his team will win once he finish Olivia as now he activates a finishing magic circle that appears on the ground.

A small magic circle appears on Eli's huge green magic circle. At that time, Olivia feels they have no choice anymore. "damn it, lady Seren... I'm sorry I can't keep our promise to win this tournament… guess I'll have to accept our loss…"

Suddenly, a rage furious and tremendous power was unleashed from nowhere. Mateo and the others were surprised by the tremendous raging power. It was… Seren's Amon Rage Mode. The battlefield also suddenly affected by the fearsome aura from the mad Seren.

The scene is now epic. The tiny Seren in red mode(Amon Rage Mode) walking towards Mateo and his teammates. Rei stopped his magic as he felt something bad going to happen. But, Mateo remains calm in that situation. For your information, Aria is the one who wakes Seren up. She's no longer be able to fight on the battlefield so she heals Seren and told Seren everything that happens on the battlefield while she's faint. Seren becomes angry as she felt that she was not having a fair match. Now, with her maniac look she walks towards them step by step. The way she moves could already fill up and change the atmosphere as she reveals her rage aura.

The trees are blown by the hurricane craated from Seren's power and seem to fall.

"Oh my oh my, having some fun while I was not here aren't you scums?"said the maniac Seren.

"Damn it how did you still can survive from that blow I hit you on your vital point?"

"Ahh, that wasn't hurt me that much but, I dislike people who's having some fun without me. You even hurt my comrades aren't you?"

Then Seren's red aura becomes more tremendous. She is grabbing her blade tightly than in the blink of an eye, she is now in front of Rei. Righ after notices by the sudden movement by Seren, Rei make in time to tie up Seren's whole body. but it was a useless try. Seren can still move as she is still on her rage mode to landed a hit to Rei.

"I could see all of them…" right after she whispered this to Rei, Rei was sent far away somewhere by the heavy hit slash from Seren.

They were stunned by Seren sudden incredible power. Mateo ragingly comes to Seren as there are brown aura unleashed from his body. Mateo finally revealed his true power.

[ WILD MODE ] This power of Mateo was similar to Seren's Amon Rage.

Now, they are fighting each other tremendously. Each time they hit each other, the ground began to shake. It was so powerful. Every strike, every blow, every move has now become their weapon. The slashing sound makes the battle field more maniac than ever. The atmosphere changes all of sudden. The trees are blown strongly by their great wave. Olivia who's on the ground gets up and still in the bad condition as her mana has been drain out by the magic threads. Olivia then decides to attack Eli who's still holding her own power. Eli's magic is to support her teammates by increasing their speed and strength, heals their wound and teleport their teammates in the area of her huge magic circles.

While Rei had just gain his consciousness, he angrily he's charging to where Olivia was trying to go. Apparently, Rei is trying to protect their supporter. No wonder that Rei could heal that fast because he is still in Eli's Magic circles. Rei uses his threads again to trap the powerless Olivia. But, Olivia notices that even though she can't see the invisible killer threads yet she run around them. Olivia might be exhausted of mana but she's still capable of depending her physically. Olivia pulled out her brandiches from her feet. Now, she is using double brandiches while running. Rei keeps an eye on Olivia's movement while defending Eli. On the other side, Seren receives a heavy blow by Mateo's Venom Saw. He had already launched it 9 times to Seren. That Amon Rage Mode can withstand the power of Mateo's finishing blow. The waves generated from them can be felt by the judges and the audience there.

"Damn it you weaker! You should have just lying on the ground but now you've come back and makes some trouble!!!" said Mateo with his fierce voice.

"Oh my oh my, your power seems to have similar to mine. I hate it ahahah" said the maniac queen Seren.

As Mateo keeps striking and slashing, his power becomes increased and his hit becomes heavier. It could be felt by Seren as she's slowly take a step back. Mateo is now in his maximum state while Seren keep withstand his strikes. They could have quick conversations even they are in the middle of battle.

"What's the matter maniac queen, you seem to get weaker." Said Mateo.

"Tch, don't trash talk to me while it is still too early bastard."

Olivia rushed to where she finds an opening but the vampire Rei had already set up the trap to her and make her think that's an opening. But, Olivia is not a person who'll fall to the same trick twice. She then uses Triple Burst Accel opposite from where was the opening and charging towards Rei. Rei quickly set a new trap again in front of him. That's when Olivia throws one of her brandiches to the air while she spins her body as she could see the invisible threads and she finally manages to avoid all of them with her skill. As she gets closed to Rei, she throws the bradiches that she holds directly to Rei's head. But, Rei manages to avoid it at the same time he pulled the thread which he had already set up while Olivia threw her brandiches to him. Unfortunately, Olivia's body again being tied up in the air. Then, Rei pulled the string as Olivia was pulled to where Rei was and Rei hit Olivia's face with his elbow. Olivia has been defeated by Rei and she whispered something in her mouth as she is now lost consciousness.

"….lady Seren…it is now all up to you…"

Tang!!! The sound of Olivia bradiches that Rei avoid earlier was hitting Mateo's back. Mateo was stopped for a second and he look behind to make sure what was hitting him. But Mateo first notice after he turned his head to see what is hitting him, there's another Olivia's brandiches that she throws to the sky where no one knows that it was intended to fall down to Eli. Mateo shouted and with all his strength, he jumps to the sky and kicks the brandiches which should be aimed at Eli. Seren smiles and muttered…

"Thanks Olivia, that one second is already enough for me."

Actually it was their plan from the start. They know they might not be able to fight against or even withstand them until the late match. But, their plan is not all about strength. It was all about timing. Right after Mateo runs from his battle with Seren to safe Eli who was being aimed from above by Olivia's weapon, Seren transforms to her [ AMON REVENGE MODE ] . She's now showing a little power of her new form. Her red aura becomes dark red. Tremendous power is revealing through the battle field and even the audience can felt the raging feelings. Seren with her tremendous speed, flickering to where Eli was standing then hit her roughly just using the edge handler of her blade to Eli's chest. Eli was sent fly away from them now.

Eli's magic was canceled and she has lost consciousness by receiving the damage from Seren's insane hit. Even Rei was sent fly away by the great wave made by Seren's swings just now. Mateo notices that Eli's magic has disappeared while he is still in the air. He was irritated and landed angrily. He uses his Thunder Roar right after he landed on the ground. With a hope that Seren will feel the pressure of Thunder Roar, he roars louder than before. The ground shaking and some of them cracked worse and so damaged.

Unfortunately, the efforts of roaring bluntly is in vain. It is useless against Seren In her Amon Revenge Mode. She blinks as she leaves a great wave behind her until the leaves were blown hardly and the trees are moving. Grabbing the sword tightly and in her best position to strike her opponent on one slashed, Seren is already in front of the huge Mateo.

" It's true that your level is higher than ours. But, the level is just a number of your strength when you beat someone. Mine is different, this is the power I hold that represents my teammates as a true hero!!! [ DRAGON RAGE ]!!!!"

Seren slashed through the huge Mateo and make some cool finishing blow. Boooom. Team B defeated as all of them were lying on the ground. Then Seren raises up her blade to show them, she has won the match. The audience once again makes a louder noise as they were amazed by the unexpected battle between them.

" Olivia oii, get up. Stop your action right there. You know you could hit Rei instead of pretending that you're weak." said Seren who's standing on the ground near Olivia.

"Ehhh, you already know that. Huuu, no fun!!!!" said Olivia.

Actually she was pretending while being hit by Rei. She could resist Rei's action back then.

"Come on, let's help Aria over there. She's waiting for us." Seren smiled at Olivia.

"Eh? Seren did you just being gentle to me?" asked Olivia who's the first time seeing Seren smile for a good reason. Well, Olivia never know that side of Seren.

"Huh? Sh*t you little monkey. I almost faint back then you know?" Seren realizes it and she tries to avoid it.

"eh? Don't change the topic…"

That's the end of their second match. Seren who's known well by her maniac queen behavior seems to attract the attention of Mateo. Mateo thinks she's the same as him, the one who wanted to stronger and win the match. But his expectation was wrong. He saw there's a kind and gentle feeling displays in Seren's expression as she was mad at her teammates while Mateo was lying on the ground and begin to lost consciousness.

To Mateo, Seren is actually a really a competent girl. She know how to come up with a great strategy. The weapon that Olivia threw was actually a bait for us all. Seren had told Olivia to get everyone's attention especially Mateo. Even just one second is enough. Olivia accidentally threw another weapon into the sky to make Marteo aware and act to save Eli. When Mateo is still in the air, that's where Seren will attack Eli who is a supporter and source of Mateo's team actions. At the same time Seren defeat Rei. Olivia actually pretends to faint after being beaten by Rei. Olivia has actually put magic in place to prevent Rei from moving. Rei couldn't move as he realized that Seren was close to him and was also hit by a decisive blow and flew away. That's why...

"You're different from others…."

The paramedic then picked Mateo and his team who's lost consciousness to the restroom as usual. The battlefield was completely destroyed. Olivia's weapon still stuck on the ground. The same goes for Mateo's weapon. And Some of the trees are collapse and the ground cracked too much in every corner. That's a really epic one.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now back to where I am waiting for Raph-chan's match. Well, I'm about to sleep on the bench but the match before Raph-chan has over.

"Give it your all out there Raph-chan!"I wished for Raph-chan.

"Yes!" replied Raph-chan

Raph-chan is now entering the battlefield…
