Conquering The Novel

60 The Gladiators Battle Ground! (4)

"You can get a nice glimpse of them from a high point near the center wall's boundary," Irethiel suggested.

I heeded her advice and came to a halt where Irethiel had directed me, and sure enough, I can see Meira and Howkins battling, as well as additional combatants lurking about them.

As weapons, I still have two arrows, two daggers, and one katana at my disposal.

I took a few moments to scan the area for the remaining gladiators. And then made my move after a few minutes of observing and strategizing.

I utilized my Hawkeye skill to lock on the targets, and launched the two remaining arrows in two distinct directions while using static electricity continuously in an instant where I noticed the gladiators lurking around,

And the bow snapped as I feared, but it had already served its purpose.

--Swish! -- Swish!

The blue electric arrows moved toward my gladiators, who were lurking behind the rocks at a fast pace leaving only the blue electric aura behind.

When the arrows hit the rocks, they blew up generating enormous explosions.

And the gladiators hiding behind them were also blasted into shreds, with their blood and body parts raining down!

They died without knowing what hit them, and they didn't even have time to scream.

"The Prince is on a bloody rampage!!!"

Wohhhh!!

Woahh!!!

Following the commentator's statements, loud cries and cheers could be heard all around the stadium.

Meira and Howkins, who had been battling nonstop up until now, also came to a halt when they saw the explosion and turned their attention to me.

I sipped the low-rank mana potion while they were staring at me, then spoke with a grin.

"The playtime is over, I suppose."

I unsheathed the katana that was hanging around my waist as soon as I spoke out.

Then, while jumping in the air, I used my skill, static electricity, to generate an Electric Aura surrounding my katana and muttered,

<strong>"Fell Crescent."</strong>

As soon as I muttered, Several powerful electric auras in the shape of blue crescents surged aggressively toward the center.

--Swish! -- Swish! -- Swish!-- Swish!

The gladiators who were concentrating on me were shocked to death when they saw the massive attacks coming at them; they tried to resist with whatever means they could but-,

Boom! -- Boom! -- Boom! -- Boom!

The attack came from all angles, causing explosions and demolishing the entire ground, leaving only debris and the aftermath electricity.

--Shriek! -- Shriek!

And the arena was now filled with electric sounds.

Many died as a result of their inability to withstand the attack, and those who survived were seriously injured.

"Oh, some are still alive," I said, knowing full well that Meira would not die from that attack alone.

What's the point of having her on my side if she can't even withstand these types of attacks?

As I was thinking this, I heard someone coughing due to the smoke caused by my attack.

-- Cough! -- Cough!

Then I noticed silhouettes of two people, and when I examined them, I realized Meira and Howkins were the only ones who could still stand after that attack.

Two other gladiators appear to be alive as well, but they were unable to stand and were screaming in agony due to their injured limbs and horrible burns.

Their agonizing screams echoed across the arena, so I pulled out two daggers that I got from the gladiators I had previously killed, and tossed those at them.

--Swish! -- Swish!

--Ahk!

Finally, their shouts were silenced as the daggers soared at them and pierced their throat.

They would have died eventually as a result of blood loss and untreated burns, so I just eased their pain by putting an end to their lives.

"...."

"I have no words! Are you really a youngster? Or were you possessed by the devil?" Irethiel remarked telepathically, observing Ares' lack of mercy for them.

"Oh, that's not the kind of statement a demon would say," I answered with a grin, my gaze fixed on the two people in front of me.

'This will be fascinating because both of them appear to be formidable. I needed to use all of my strength to see how far I had come,' I thought to myself.

The smoke in the arena faded quickly, and I noticed Meira and Howkins both glaring at me at the same time.

When I saw them, I grinned and motioned for them to come at me; they both stared at each other for a second, then nodded before rushing at me at the same time.

Howkins appears to be wielding a short sword, while Meira wields dual daggers.

As they both arrived in front of me and attacked with their weapons repeatedly, I resisted their assaults with my sword at a rapid pace with a smile on my face.

Their strikes were extremely fast and powerful, but after training with Mika, Helena, and Bianca, it seemed like I was playing a game in easy mode after routinely playing it in hard mode.

-- Tink! -- Tink!

We could hear the sounds of weapons clashing and could see sparkles as our weapons impacted at a rapid pace.

I kept repelling both of their strikes at the same time, not giving them the upper hand.

The Howkins guy wasn't bad either, rushing and trying to find an opening while Meira kept me busy by appearing behind me with her assassin skill.

But, as I had predicted, I was able to deflect her assaults by focusing on her with Hawk's eyes to ensure that I didn't miss any of her movements.

If I miss even one of her moves, she will seize the opportunity and kill me instantaneously.

However, the Howkins guy looks to be terrified of cooperating with Meira appropriately, and he also didn't let his guard down against her, because he is afraid Meira will suddenly point her sword at him.

Because, no matter how well they cooperate, they will eventually have to fight each other, and only one of them will survive this battlefield in the end.

I took advantage of the situation, and when Meira reappeared behind me and attacked me again, I exchanged places with Howkins...

"Huh?" When Howkins spotted Meira's blade piercing near his heart, he was puzzled as to how he had ended up in this situation, and he began to bleed from the puncture, even throwing up blood from his mouth.

-- Drip! Drip!

Meira was taken aback by this unexpected turn of events as well and realized she had messed up.

As she slowly turned toward me in sudden realization, My knee slammed her face knocking her backward, while her nose started to bleed.

I could have killed her with my sword right then and there if I had wanted to. But I didn't mean to kill her and only wanted to test how strong she was.

Her head was spinning as she covered her bleeding nose with one of her hands.

She looked at me, perplexed as to why I hadn't killed her when I could.

As she was still confused, I dashed toward her at full speed and struck her again; she tried to resist my attack, but she couldn't keep up with my pace.

As my knee landed on her face again, she was sent flying and hit the wall.

I pushed towards her and attacked again, fissures appeared on the wall behind her that was blood-splattered, as I continued jabbing her.

I could hear excited cheers from the audience while I was brutally beating her.

As I eventually ceased my strikes, Meira was covered in blood all over her body and laying on the ground.

Her eyes were losing consciousness, and she was convinced that I didn't want to murder her easily, but rather torture her.

Meira clenched her teeth and eventually chose to use her other form, despite the risk that she might forfeit control and lose sight of herself.

But it's better than dying, right?

"This is it, this is what I've been waiting for!" As I watched her transform into her other form, I thought to myself.

Suddenly, the atmosphere around us darkened and powerful breezes began to blow...

As I gazed at her, I noticed Meira giving me a cold glare, as if I were a scumbag.

"Whistles ~Whistles ~"

And I could hear Irethiel's whistling in the background
