Chapter 591 The Tournament of Champions - First Round (17)

Luna, and Cecilia watched as Heimdall announced the next pair of fighters. After the two names were revealed, the room turned silent.

Cecilia turned to Luna, expecting to see her nervous. However, her beautiful face didn't show even a ripple of emotions.

Luna reached into her inventory, and pulled out the beautiful wand.

''Good luck.'' Cecilia patted her shoulder, and said, ''Underlord is strong. Be careful.''

''Hehe, I will be alright.'' Luna winked, and left the room. She skipped down the hallway, and soon arrived at the tall doors. The guards stood beside the doors, waiting for the signal to open them.

In the other side of the arena, behind a pair of tall doors. Underlord dragged his feet behind him as he stopped before the doors. Everyone who saw him felt like something was crawling inside them. They only felt this when they were standing beside their worst fears.

Rumble... The ground shook as the arena again started changing. This time, the arena was shockingly, a dark flower field. Above the arena, an artificial crimson moon hung high above. It was a strangely beautiful sight.

''Match between Underlord, and Night, begins!'' Heimdall's voice seeped through the doors. The guards pushed the doors open, revealing an open path to the flower field.

Underlord, and Luna stepped through the doors. They could see each other vividly. One looked sickly, like hadn't slept for months, and the other one was as beautiful as any Goddess.

Isaac walked through an open door, and stood behind the sea of audience members. From his current position, he could see the arena clearly. His face showed clear concern.

There was a strange aura around Underlord, something that couldn't be erased. It was dangerous, and bloodlusty.

However, knowing that this fight was happening inside the game, it made Isaac heave a sigh of relief. But, there was a feeling in his heart that didn't go away. He had a feeling that this might not end in a good way.

''So, she is your legacy carrier.'' Artemis said while looking at Luna. She was quite surprised that Hecate actually chose someone.

''Yes, she is.'' Hecate smiled proudly.

Khione sat next to them quietly. She had met with Luna several times, and knew what kind of person she was. Thus, knowing that Underlord was her opponent made her feel a strange nervousness.

'Why am I nervous...' Frowning, Khione touched her chest, but her heart didn't calm down.

'I am sure everything will turn out fine, but why do I feel like something will happen...'

The battle ensued.

Underlord stood quietly, watching as the dark flowers bloomed. His frown grew as he caressed one of the petals. However, as soon as he did, the petals withered, and disappeared.

''Hecate's Magic, The Five Circular, Fire Lion!''

The dark sky brightened as a lion made of fire appeared as a result of Luna's spell. The lion's teeth were razor sharp, made of flames, and steel.

As the lion caught the scent of its prey, its red eyes turned to the faraway Underlord, and growled loudly. With its large paws, the lion started rushing towards the sickly-looking man.

''Luna's Magic, The Fourth Circular, Fire Chains!'' Luna waved her wand like she was the conductor of an orchestra.

A fiery chains flew out of her wand. They zoomed past the fire lion, and surrounded Underlord.

As the chains caused a sea of flames, the chains made of fire, and steel slashed towards Underlord.

The audience exclaimed in shock. They didn't expect the delicate-looking woman to have such powerful abilities.

However, they soon noticed that Underlord didn't have any intention of dodging. To surprise of everyone, the chains coiled around Underlord as the flames engulfed him. Everyone thought he was dead meat.

But, it was Luna who first noticed something was wrong. The fire lion leaped across the air, and sank its fiery teeth into Underlord's neck. However, his emotionless face didn't change.

''Disappear.'' With a single word uttered by Underlord, the fire lion, and chains vanished. All the burn damage disappeared. It was like the previous ten seconds were nothing but a dream!

''W-What?!''

The audience exclaimed in shock. What the hell was that?

The Gods, and Goddesses frowned. For a moment, they felt fluctuations in reality. However, they immediately shrugged it off. It was impossible. Only the Primordial God Erebus has that omnipotent power.

''Unlimited Darkness.'' Underlord snapped his fingers. Snap, snap, snap. After doing so, the entire realm was shrouded in darkness. Everyone thought they had lost their sight.

However, as soon as the Gods, and Goddesses illuminated the area, they realized they hadn't lost their sight. It's just that Underlord caused the entire world to lose its light!

''Zeus, this is not ordinary power!'' From several rooms away, Artemis shouted through the open window. Zeus, alongside other Gods heard her.

''She is right.'' God Shiva responded with a serious expression, ''His power is... not one of the Dark Priests.''

''Then what the hell is it?'' God Zeus bit his nails, thinking about the strange scene.

Underlord looked around the audience, smirking as he saw the shocked expressions.

''Gods... Goddesses... That does not matter.'' Turning to look at the beautiful woman, his smirk grew, ''Night... Wraith's girlfriend, correct?''

Luna frowned, and held the wand tighter.

''You know... I have always deemed Wraith an eyesore. Because of him, my streaming career took a dent. Everyone compared me to him... always, always, always!''

''Whoo...'' Calming down, Underlord swiped his hair back, and his face turned cold, ''But, not anymore. There is no one stronger than I... Because reality is within my grasp!''

''Hecate's Magic, The Eight Circular, Doom Song!'' Luna immediately waved her wand, and a head-splitting song echoed across the space, and time. After hearing it, everyone saw images of doomsday.

However, the full brunt of the image was suffered by Underlord. He didn't only see the images. He was feeling it!

''Get out of my head... Witch!'' Underlord punched through the images, shattering them like glass.

''W-What?!'' A trail of blood flowed down Luna's pink lips. Her eyes shook at the unreal scene. Underlord broke out of the spell like it was physical item, which wasn't. That was impossible!
