Astral creation

Shadow vs Arrow

The sudden defeat of hambuba has shocked everyone in the stadium, including hayashi himself.

Hayashi: I didn't expected it to end like this, I thought he would stop healing after a big blow.

Administrator comes down to the ground to check on hambuba, he starts scanning his body. The medics come to help him out. Hambuba is completely unconcious, he is not responding to anything. The medics call it an emergency and takes him to the hospital. The brother of hambuba, humbaba doesn't show much emotion towards his brother.

Administrator: Oh my, is could barely feel his heart beat. What have you done boy? He might even die.

Hayashi: You can't blame me, it was his ability. I was just trying to win.

Administrator: You are not wrong, I don't see anyone coming after you even if he dies. Whatever, give me your hand. I have to declare you to be the winner to everyone.

The administrator holds hayashis hand up high and declares him the winner. Hayashi looks around the stadium and sees everyone shouting his name. Hayashi has never felt this much joy and proud.

He returns back to the pavilion, where he gets greeted by kosei and Krishna.

Hayashi: Huff huff

Kosei: I was getting worried about you, but you did far better than my expectations. Congratulations on qualifying to the next round.

Krishna: You didn't get confused about hambuba and did your best. Like the wise man once said, patience is the key to success. You have proven yourself right, hope I get to fight you in the future.

Hayashi: Cut it out, you are making me blush. Trust me, I didn't know he was gonna turn out like this. I think I just got lucky that he didn't have a different kinds of attack set. All he could do against me was throw some punches and that's it. He was so fast, if he could use powerful energy beams. I would have taken more hits.

Krishna: True, but that beast was not smart enough. The experiment has obviously made his human brain become more dumber.

Antonio: Huh, an animal is still an animal. No matter how much strong they are, human brain can always outsmart them. I guess I don't have to worry about his brother humbaba, I hope I get to fight him in the next match or round. I shall get going, Krishna.

Antonio leaves -

Kosei: You should go take some rest hayashi, I still have my match left.

Hayashi: I will go and get some quick treatment, I will be back. I don't wanna miss your match.

Hayashi leaves-

Kosei: I wonder who's gonna fight next.

Krishna: Both of us have our matches left, I can't wait to get my match. I am getting tired of waiting.

On the big screen of the stadium, the names of the remaining players starts scrolling.

The next match has been decided, it will be feraun vs archer!

Kosei: I don't know much about any of them, huh. Let's see what they do, this feraun guy is strong.

Krishna: Interesting, this feraun guy is extremely strong. I have heard of him, did a bit research on him.

The administrator calls both participants to step forward into the ground and prepare to fight each other.

The two comes down to the ground and starts starring each other.

Archer: Hey you, why don't you give up and I let you go without harming you? I really don't wanna waste so much of my time. I need to go and train, to prepare myself to fight real strong opponents.

Feraun:.....

Archer: You really don't like talking, do ya? Okay, whatever. I shouldn't have wasted time by talking with you.

The bell rings and the battle between the two starts.

Archer jumps backward and creates a big enough distance between him and feraun. Archer Brings out 3 arrows, which looks different compared to each other.

All three of them starts glowing, radiating three different colors. Archer points them at feraun.

Archer: These are the fastest object we, A ranks can produce. Every single one of them are powered by magic crystals, each of them are different compared to one another.

The moment I release them from my hands, they will hit you in a blink and there's no way you can escape from it. You sure won't die from the crystal explosion, but it will do a heavy damage. Something which will take years to heal. I am warning you again, just give up kid.

Feraun:...Kid? I was not planning to talk, but how could you call me a kid? I am 25 years old, I am sure you are not that far away from me. Whatever, stop trying to scare me. I don't care.

Archer: Smhhh..You will regret.

Archer releases the three arrows directly feraun, which goes straight at feraun.

But something unexpected happens, which shocks archer the most.

The arrows he threw at feraun did not hit him, instead they stopped a few inches away from feraun. Who is laughing and telling archer how stupid and arrogant he is?

Archer: How is this possible? So you can control shadow?

Archer is shocked by seeing how feraun has stopped his arrows from reaching him. The arrows he sent was stopped by shadows which the arrows itself created while flying at their target.

Feraun: Yes, I can manipulate shadow in certain extent. Yes I have trained in other departments as well, but shadow manipulation is my specialty. I can manipulate an object using the shadow itself had created. Like I can attack you by using shadow which you are currently producing by standing in front of the sun. Of course I can not do it with a long range distant, like you. It doesn't matter though, does it? Go on, throw those toys at me. Throw whatever you want, you ain't getting anyway.

Archer: You really talk so much, don't think you are gonna win just because you countered my attacks.

Feraun: Okay loser.

The battle between the two continues.
