The clash between the two fighters continues to destroy the ground, the spectators are going crazy with loud cheers for both sides.
“This power, I can't believe how crazy it is. What is this dragon god? I believed it to be a legend but I saw you summon it in your last fight against rahamat. Though that only seemed to be a projection. The dragon really does exist, doesn't it? You have the power of the dragon god, no wonder why you are so strong. I would love to know more about that after I beat you." Krishna smirks while landing fists with tihsan.
“You also seem to have some ancient power within you, something which doesn't trace back to lord Diabolos. This fire aura, is it from the great fire beast of the north? I heard about it from lady Fu hao." Tihsan also seems to know much about Krishna and his power. They are both equally powerful and well versed in many aspects as if they have been studying each other all their life.
After fighting for so long, their stamina is running out. None of them are willing to give up. The spectators in the stadium also start getting even crazier.
Krishna can't fake his emotions anymore, everyone could tell how hurt he was and how drained he was. Tihsan on the other hand is showing no sign of giving up, he looked confident as always.
As the match continues, the air grows heavy and hot like a humid summer afternoon, but then the heat suddenly dies down and it becomes cold. A strange phenomenon has taken place in front of Krishna and tihsan.
Tihsan is the one behind the phenomenon, he finally had made up his mind. He is going to finish the battle with his final attack.
Tihsan brings out both his Chinese swords and uses rapid spin sword attack to force Krishna to back off.
Tihsan forces Krishna on the other side while he lands on the other. Krishna knew it was the time, the time of their final strike.
The cloud gets darken, the atmosphere around the arena changes.
“Dragon thunder god, have no mercy!"
An enormous dragon pops out of nowhere and starts charging at Krishna.
“Let's see if this stop you or not, big fat dragon." Krishna puts together all of his last force into one ball of fire and manipulates it with his stuff. He uses it like a spear and throws it directly at the dragon. The enormous flamy spear destroys the ground beneath it as it approaches the dragon. The clash between the dragon and the flamy spear creates a shockwave and covers the entire stadium in smoke. The dragons roar in rage and pain. “Now, Tihsan. Let's finish this!" Both of the boys are ready to make the final strike. They start circling eachother, waiting for the perfect moment. “What do you think, big fat dragon. Will we have any chance?" Krishna asks.
The two starts punching each other while the dragon is busy with the fire.
Right when Krishna thought he had a chance, the dragon completely absorbs the fire and vanishes before hitting Krishna with it's tail.
Krishna gets thrown into the wall and the force of that dragon causes him enough damage to not be able to get back up.
“What the.....Even after I put all my strength into it, it was still not able to destroy just a projection of the original dragon. That thing really is strong. Well, even without the dragon power. You could still beat me, well played tihsan. It was the best battle of my life." Cough Cough.
Krishna spits blood out of his mouth. The outcome of the battle was decided, tihsan has defeated Krishna. The result shocks kosei and hayashi, as they were rooting for Krishna to win.
“If you wanna know more about Chiwan, then visit china. That's all for now, you did good damage. I also need to get some treatment before the finale. Let's fight again!"
Tihsan smiles at Krishna and leaves the ground while holding his hand up in the sky.
The first half of the semi finale ends with a banger, leaving the audience even more hyped about the second battle between Antonio and kosei.
“Huh, how could you lose against him when I consider you to be a worthy opponent of mine? What a disgrace you are, you have disappointed master Hanuman." Antonio spits harsh words towards Krishna for losing against tihsan. Suddenly a tall man walks up to them from behind. It is none other than Hanuman, who has a big smile eating his face. He doesn't seem to be angry at Krishna for losing. Rather gives him a hug to cheer him up a bit.
“I am so proud of you, and what a good job you did too, it was very well done~, you must be tired after fighting all night. Let's rest now while the sun rises a bit more, shall we?” Hanuman ruffles Krishna's hair with care before leading him inside. “Go, go, I will take your place. Go rest.” With that Hanuman leaves him alone with Antonio in one room. He looks as if he wants to say something but then decides to leave instead.
It makes him nervous thinking about being left alone like this. He hasn’t been in an open space like this since...ever. The first time he ever stepped out was during his training with the elders back then. The second time is when he finally became the leader of Viraam, and now he is the new lord of Viraam. This is his chance, to experience the whole world for himself.
“Okay fine, I admit it. You did great, it's just that boy who is so strong. Even Santiago couldn't beat him, so I can see why you lost. But don't worry, when I get into the finale and face him. I will beat him for good. See ya." Antonio starts leaving the room but gets stopped by Krishna from behind. Krishna warns him about the boy he is about to face in the next match, kosei.
“If you think you can beat him that easily, then you are wrong. Good luck beating him first, before hoping to beat tihsan."
“Shit."
Antonio leaves with a bad mode.
