The 11th God

Battle of the Factions Arc: The 11th God

She immediately lost consciousness for a few seconds right after telling what will happen by the last part of the tournament. I have no idea if she intended to do it but she seems to be suffering over something inside her that she couldn’t control it.

The suffering only lasted for a few seconds though, she immediately went back to her own senses without a minute. She looked back at us agaShe immediately lost consciousness for a few seconds right after telling what will happen by the last part of the tournament. I have no idea if she intended to do it but she seems to be suffering over something inside her that she couldn’t control it.

The suffering only lasted for a few seconds though, she immediately went back to her own senses without a minute. She looked back at us again but this time her stare were scary and confused.

“I can’t tell you more from that.” she told us.

“That’s definitely useless.” Diether told her.

“I don’t think it is useless. Diether, I know now who my opponent tomorrow is and I have some time to prepare for whatever is to come tomorrow.” I told him.

“We also have the fact that the opponent should be easy to deal with, so even if it is the one who attacked Elio, I know now what to do in order to be careful around him. I have already studied his movements and skill patterns during his fight with Elio.” I continued.

Diether nodded.

“Thank you very much Percisca.” I told her.

She stood up immediately and started walking away

“There will be something at the end that you should surpass. Not only the god himself but all three of you. It shall be as challenging as you never thought it would be so it is best to prepare for what will happen tomorrow.” she said while walking.

“We’ll take note of that.” I told her.

Precisca vanished into the darkness at the fair point of the tavern’s door. I looked back at Elio and Diether to see what their reaction might be.

“Do you really trust that woman?” Diether asked me.

“There is no harm in trusting her.” I told him.

“But what if there is a cost in listening to her?” Diether contradicted again.

“We should just follow his decisions Diether.” Elio said.

“I am just clarifying things. I wouldn’t want us to regret something we decided without being sure about it.” Diether told me.

“I am sure about this one. I don’t see anything that might come in our way. Besides, haven’t we already run through so much? Eventually we’ll see what waits for us.” I told him.

Diether ended up agreeing with us in the form of nodding.

“So what should we do tomorrow?” he asked.

“The best that we got is to plan about the possibilities that might happen tomorrow. According to what Precisca had said, at the end something will happen that we should all surpass. I have a feeling that we wouldn’t really expect what will happen tomorrow but I insist on letting it pass. We should plan for whatever may come tomorrow.” I told them.

“We don’t have time to go around the bush.” Elio told me.

“I know.” I told them.

We all planned carefully on what is to come tomorrow. We ended up with tons of possibilities that we were not sure if it will happen but we prepared for it. We all concentrated on our energy gathering. In our past battles, we have been lacking with energy concentration every time we are in battle and I guess this is the time to train ourselves. One of the possibilities we had thought is that Elio and Diether will be competing tomorrow. I have no idea if it is the same battle that they did earlier but we better be sure that it will be more dangerous than it did last time. We are now fighting with lesser people but stronger. There is a possibility that we will lose this match, but even if we are at the verge of death we will always give our best.

Tomorrow has come and it is time for the competition. All of the remaining factions gathered up in front of the guild and a portal opened up again. Dio mentioned yesterday that there will be a new place for the commencing of today’s battle and I guess this is the portal towards the new map.

One by one, all of the factions’ members started walking towards the portal. Just like yesterday, we ended up stepping in the portal last, figuring out the new map lastly.

When we got inside, we were stunned by the massive space that we had stepped on. It is definitely a new map than yesterday. It gives the same vibes with Fantasia but it is not Fantasia.

Instead, it is just somewhere inside Ylgaea.

The map is massive in visuals. It is a kind of forest with various heights of trees. We are surrounded by tons of trees and various unknown sounds. I am guessing something lies between the dark depth of these woods but we have to act prepared for it.

I am not going to lie; we did not expect the map to be this massive. Last night, we all talked about how the new map will turn out but we did not expect it to be this big. It is definitely a hundred times bigger than the hill of Fantasia where we fought yesterday.

We all gathered up and went to our designated positions while Dio remained in the middle. Just like before, the screens started showing up on top of him, one with the names of the factions inside it, one of them is the ranking of the guilds, one of them is the type of battle and the last one is probably a timer.

Yesterday we had no timer during the match, but right now after seeing “5:00” on top of Dio there is definitely a time limit in today’s matches. I have no idea what revision is there in today’s battle but the timer gave more intensity in the battle.

“Is everyone ready for today’s battle?” Dio said with a smirk in his face.

His smirk gave more intensity for today’s battle. Every second that I see his face my heartbeat keeps on getting worse and worse and slowly I feel myself getting mental blocked.

The screen started popping up different faction names and so did the screen for the type of battle. This time, they are showing everybody what kind of battle will occur before Dio even announces it. I must say this is making me more nervous than yesterday.

After a few seconds, the screens stopped showing names and battle types.

And this is one of the things that I had expected based on our talk last night.in but this time her stare were scary and confused.

“I can’t tell you more from that.” she told us.

“That’s definitely useless.” Diether told her.

“I don’t think it is useless. Diether, I know now who my opponent tomorrow is and I have some time to prepare for whatever is to come tomorrow.” I told him.

“We also have the fact that the opponent should be easy to deal with, so even if it is the one who attacked Elio, I know now what to do in order to be careful around him. I have already studied his movements and skill patterns during his fight with Elio.” I continued.

Diether nodded.

“Thank you very much Percisca.” I told her.

She stood up immediately and walked away.

“There will be something at the end that you should surpass. Not only the god himself but all three of you. It shall be as challenging as you never thought it would be so it is best to prepare for what will happen tomorrow.” she said.
