Destroying My Own World

Chapter 31: Chapter 31: Sparring. (1)

"I have no idea why I'm here, and why me first?" Rozan asked as he looked at Jeanne and the others who were sitting on the bench near the arena.

"Because you're the weakest than all of us, so we don't really want to waste our time and effort if you lost when the rest of us won against them before you," Elena answered with a smile.

"Wow, really? You guys think so too?" Rozan asked as he looked at Gunnar and the others. "You guys are fucking assholes," Rozan shook his head in disappointment.

"It wasn't us who decide that though! Elena was the one who gave the order, not us," Sven said as he pointed at Elena who was chuckling at Rozan's reaction.

"Whatever. I'll show you guys what I can do," Rozan said as he turned around and looked at his opponent.

Jeanne looked around the arena, and she saw everyone was gathered, not a single person that wasn't interested in the spar. There was someone who didn't come to the training ground, and that was Mykel since he went to have a private talk with Alfredo. He said that he was invited by Alfredo so he could smoke the best cigar that Alfredo had, so he used that excuse to talk with Alfredo privately.

Rozan fought a Chosen One from the Zoroaster Guild, and he was surprised that his opponent was so easy to deal with. He didn't need to use his [Enhancement Magic] skill to make him stronger. The reason was that he had been training and sparring with Mykel so many times that it made him easy to read his opponent's movement. In the end, he knocked down his opponent and he still couldn't believe how easy it was for him to defeat the opponent.

He then fought one member of most of the guilds, and he won without him realizing it. He walked down the arena and people were clapping their hands for him. He realized something and wanted to confirm to others what he found about why his opponents were so easy.

"You're right, these guys are nothing without their artifacts," Rozan said quietly as he looked at Jeanne.

"It's a given since it's a spar and they have to use the weapons that are provided here. Without their artifacts, they have become normal Awakeners," Jeanne answered.

Jeanne knew about it from back then when she talked with one of the Chosen Ones. All the Chosen Ones weren't given ability or power by the Gods, they were given artifacts that would help them in fighting demons. Gods gave them ability and power through sponsorship, and she also realized that only a few of them were sponsored for an unknown reason.

Although they were called the Chosen Ones, they still had to make Gods interested in them once they were inside. It was like an auction where the Gods chose who they wanted to give their artifact to, and that meant the Chosen One could get a really bad artifact, and they couldn't complain about it.

"It works like a charm though," Elena said as she crossed her legs and rested her elbow on it and her head on her fist. "They were listening to your blabbering and decided to send their weakest members. Now that you have won, there's nothing that we need to be worried about," Elena smirked.

"You're literally a woman version of Mykel, and that terrifies me," Rozan looked at Elena in disbelief. "Wait, so you're serious about me being the weakest?" Rozan asked and just realized what she said.

"Alright, who wants to go next?" Elena said and ignored Rozan's question.

"Can I? This is making me nervous, and I don't want to do it later because I can't handle the atmosphere," Nagy said as she looked at Elena.

Nagy walked up to the arena and it didn't take long until she defeated all of her opponents because she was so used to her ability to see weaknesses. It was like the back of her head whenever she was dealing with humans or any creatures that resembled a human body. She didn't even use any effort to knock her opponents down which surprised everyone who watched her because she looked like a shy person and fragile.

Lillith, Jeanne, and Aurea hugged Nagy and they were so proud of her for stomping on her opponents.

Vincze, Sven, Gerrard, Gunnar, Lillith, Enma, and Bhatmelec, won their turns and put their opponents to shame.

"It's just the three of us left, who wants to go next?" Elena looked at Jeanne and Aurea.

"I'll go," Aurea said as she stood up.

Aurea walked up to the arena with a sword in her hand, and the way she carried her sword made everyone unsettled. She was dragging the sword and letting the tip of the blade scrape the floor, and the way she stared at everyone made them think about what kind of opponent they were going to face.

"We almost forgot who she was back then. I hope she didn't do anything that would put us in trouble," Jeanne said as she looked at Aurea.

"Well, we can just call it an accident," Elena answered and leaned her back on the bench. "Seeing her like that, I bet only a few of them want to challenge her," Elena pointed out.

As soon as Elena said that, the first one who walked up the arena was a Chosen One from the Shinshi Clan. He had a ponytail and he was carrying the sword with respect, unlike Aurea.

Aurea watched the man ready his stance elegantly, but she immediately dashed forward which surprised him. The man held the sword handle so tightly and the moment Aurea was in range, he swung his sword down diagonally, but to his surprise that Aurea didn't try to block it. She dodged it in a split second before the blade touched her neck down to her waist.

"You're done," Aurea said and threw an uppercut with her left fist.

The man was stunned and almost lost consciousness, but when he glanced at Aurea, she was about to stab him right in the throat. He knew he couldn't dodge it and was terrified of how she was sparring to kill, and not to win.

"Aurea!" Elena shouted as she crossed her arms and legs on the bench. "This is just a spar, hold your bloodlust," Elena said calmly.

Aurea stopped pushing her sword and it stopped right on the man's neck. The tip of her blade was already inside the man's throat, and then she pulled it away.

"You're lucky," Aurea whispered and then walked away as she chuckled. "Who's next?" Aurea asked as she looked around.

"There's no rule on how many people can challenge them, right? If that's the case we will be your next opponents," Khai said as he walked into the arena with Rash.

"I don't fight a kid," Aurea chuckled as she pointed at Khai. "You need to grow up and hold a proper weapon, not kitchen knives like that," Aurea said as she looked at the daggers in Khai's hands.

Khai looked so pissed and immediately ran toward Aurea as he crossed his hand and pointed his daggers at her. Rash was surprised that Khai would act so rashly, and then he ran and tried to catch up with Khai.

"Fighting a kid like you, I don't need to use this. Come!" Aurea said as she stabbed the sword on the floor.

Aurea dodged every single attack that Khai did as if she read him like an open book. Khai's attacks were fast and precise, and yet he couldn't land a single hit on her which made him frustrated. The reason why was that Aurea had been fighting Lillith millions of times, and she knew how to deal with anyone who used daggers.

"Let the grow-ups enjoy the fight, you can sit back and watch," Aurea said and then she dashed forward.

Aurea punched Khai right on the nose and sent him off the arena just like that. Rash was surprised, but he took his turn to fight Aurea, and yet Aurea kept using her bare hands to fight him.

"What can you do without your artifact?" Aurea asked as she dodged Rash's attacks. "I'll show you what a real Awakener can do," Aurea grabbed the blade with her right hand and shattered it into pieces.

Everyone was shocked because nobody would be crazy enough to stop a sharp blade with a bare hand. They were dumbfounded that she didn't look in pain even though her hand started bleeding.

"You're too weak," Aurea used the back of her left hand and sent Rash off the arena. "Next!" Aurea shouted.

They watched as Aurea licked the blood that dripped down to her forearm. She licked it like it was strawberry jam and then she slurped the blood on her palm like it was wine. They realized how crazy she was and they didn't want to fight her after witnessing that.

"No one? I guess my turn is over already," Aurea said as she licked her lips which were covered in blood.
