"Are both player ready?" The one who had to be the judge is none other than the Game Master Hanami herself. It's not weird that she would be the one to judge the duel. After all, she's the game master. But the thing is that... She's Rio's GF. It would be bad if she oversees the duel. "I hope you're not going to biased in the judging." "I hope so too, forget about anything and please judge the duel as fair as possible." "... Sure thing. You two lads just go at it with full blow. I ain't gonna do nothing. The only winner is the one who KILL the other person. Got it?" "Couldn't hear that more clearly!" "That's something that I like to hear!" I twirl my King's Dagger around and then stare at Rio who's ready to start the battle too... We're focused on the countdown that tell us when the duel actually begin so that we can make the first move. The one who moves first is going to have a better chance of winning. Or at least that's what Rio thought. The moment the battle begins, he immediately make the first move. To me, it's the right move to not go first because even with my speed, I cannot reach him first. But that doesn't mean that I'm not going to attack him. It's just that my attack are slightly delayed to get me the edge. After blocking a couple of his bullet... I immediately stopped moving entirely and then uses my Merciless. The two dragon shoots out toward Rio. Rio is now forced to deal with it or he's going to get a ton of damage dealt to him... "Tch! Here! Have a couple of this while I deal with yours!" Rio uses Godspeed and then without hesitation, rain his attacks down upon me before immediately charging his pistol. "I'm a slippery bastard you know? Your attack ain't gonna matter to me!" One Step, I cut the distance in half. Followed by an instantaneous use of Phantom Flicker straight in front of the Merciless Dragon. "What?! You have no reason to be here!" "I do. That's to distract you!" Immediately, I thrust my dagger straight toward his face... Rio stopped moving and immediately block the dagger using his sword. The dragons went straight toward his side. But unfortunately, he managed to uses his portal to transfer those two dragon away from himself... Straight toward me too... "Tch." I uses Phantom Flicker to go back a couple of meters to distance myself. That's when Rio followed me. "I can use that sort of movement too, you know?" "f**k!" Rio manages to shot me on the back of my shoulder and the bullet pierces through my armor... I went full into protection mode and gain more distance as usual. "Piercing Bullet. Do you know the concept of that skill?" "... I guess it's no use for me to try and act dumb huh." "You're too smart to act dumb. I knew that fact, my friend." "Haah... I obviously know how the concept work. An attack that pierces through armor by opening up a portal right in between the armor..." "Correct. Of course, there are some limitation to my Piercing Bullet. I cannot penetrate your entire defense because technically, all armor doesn't have any space that I can open up a portal to completely ignore your defense. But my piercing bullet can penetrate up to 50% of your defense. Hell, if your armor is only strong on the outside, my bullet can probably deal the same amount of damage as you not wearing any armor." Yeah, I thought so. It's not hard to understand his skill once I heard the name of it. "Now that's definitely something that I don't like dealing with." I'm fortunate that my armor is fully decked out without any weakness. So the damage that his attack dealt was still very little even though it pierces my armor halfway through. Not to mention, his weapon are far worse quality than mine. In term of jobs alone, he wins. Blood Phantom cannot win against the Portal Gunner... Although my damage is bigger, his range is better. His movement rivals my movement with his Portal and Godspeed combination... "Aaaah... I don't like it... I don't like it!" "Well, you have no choice but to lose if you don't like it, don't you?" I always knew that our ability is neck to neck when it comes to a full blown one on one duel... He actually focused his game to beat me senseless... Fair play to him... "But I aim to be the true king in whatever game I touches... You need to defeat me properly to get the true king title now." I decided to went full focus from the get go... I put my mask down and then stared Rio down... Of course, Rio grinned lightly and then pointed his gun straight at me... The barrel of his gun and also his sword lights up in some sort of light aura... "Haaah..." I decided to increase my aura a bit more and the space started to shivers even more from the pressure of my armor... "... I understand what you're trying to do. But my AoE is bigger than your aura can throw off!" Tch. He understands my intention. My intention to use the aura created by my armor to throw off his aim. I guess he really does counter me to perfection... "It doesn't matter though... Since with that. I get to try out new things..." I put away my King's Daggers and then put my hands together... I look straight at Rio who's completed his charge... "I don't know what you're trying to do... So I'm going to end this now rather than later in case you're charging something too!" He immediately pulls the trigger on his pistol. "Jade Buster!" A massive energy shot out from his pistol. It's so strong that I can easily feel that it is his ultimate move. Anyone who got hit with ultimate move are going to die... "Well, we have our winner..." The moment I heard that coming out from Hanami Mouth... I had to ruin it for her. "There's no Tomorrow!" Chains started to cover my body tightly without leaving any gap and then tons of chains also shoots out to counter Rio's Jade Buster... Unfortunately for me, my ultimate has run out while Rio still has one more shot with his sword. "I guess this is the end huh?" During that moment... He swung down... "Unfortunate for me. But also, unfortunate for you..." Without anyone noticing... During that time where we exchange ultimate... I throw my Dark Thorn straight alongside the chains... It's so low that it assimilate into the shadows itself... So, that's why no one detected it. "An awakening in the middle of the match is the best feeling for anyone to have... So that's why... Good bye." My kunai stabbed him. But then, it instantly explode and KILLS Rio instantly. Not giving anyone a chance to react. Just Black explosion appearing in the middle of nowhere and eats Rio entire existence... His follow up to the Jade Buster disappears... "T-The Winner are... OneSec!!!" Hanami has no choice but to announce me as the winner... I can hear everyone is cheering for me. With that... I put my mask away and then said to Hanami... "You should see it coming. An awakening of the best player can only happen when the best player is about to lose that title. True King persevere through whatever the world gives him. We, only grow stronger from adversity like this. Thank you for all of you for your help." With that... I can still climb and continue to climb even higher. I will become a being that is so powerful that everyone is going to think that I am a god in the game!
