Gorilla, roars in pain and anger, his eyes blur as he tries to stand to his feet but staggers to the ground. He reaches too his axe as he desperately stands mustering all the strength and power into his ripping muscle charging towards me like a bull.
I knew this wont be easy as he is level twelve compared to my level i am just level two however he is weaken and i am going to end it with a strike skill i got. I look one more time at the princess chained in the auditorium i smiled,
[SWORD SKILL ACTIVATED] Lightning sword. A sword appears into my right hand. I seat my sword to his sheath and pose for an attack in a battle stand. I mildly steps my right foot forward, as i adjust my left leg back wards bending my body reaching close to my kneels
I held my sword with my left hand firmly, i place my right hand on the handle of my sword, this i learnt from a Japanese sword school during my previous life time.

I close my eyes acknowledging my surrounding as it glows image in black and white colors with my minds eye i could see image of trees, the birds , the crowd, a charging gorilla my enemy in the center of the field in black and white as he leaps into the air raging his leading axe with great power aiming for me swinging is axe in descending order arcing for my head. My sword in his sheath begins to glow golden lightning and I could feel Mana rushing into my veins separating the negative energy from the positive with Lightning cackled up. I pose in my final attack.

Thundering flash

I draw out my sword from his sheath with intense speed and power swinging it and everything in his part were slice up with a huge
Boom?
The axe was sliced shattering into pieces accompanied with strong gust of wind and lightning. Torrents of blood splatters from gorilla's body, his eyes widened and splutters in surprise as he could see his two arms floating in the air before his mouth decorated with splattering blood.
He falls to the ground. The surprise crowd grow silent to the unexpected shock. Suddenly they recover as a clap was heard from a distant within the crowd accompanied with several claps from crows. The crowd recovers as does the announcer.
"And the victor is Eric Edward."
Somewhere along the way, the crowd begins to cheers. They had never see a good show in a long time. Gorilla the undefeated as been defeated. They praise the brutality and it seems most relish the unpredictability of the sport but they are few bitter individuals who have lost money because of it. Their shouts are buzz at the corner of my consciousness, my vision is that of the tunnel as i focus on the door in front of me. I reaffixed my gaze towards the princess who smiles at me.
"Am going to save you setsuna" Eric said to him self as he walks out of the stage.
Scattered in the crowd, were notable persons watching , some were noble sons grimacing their teeth at Eric.
"It must be a magic trick or tool" one said to another
" He couldn't have won, am going to fight him", romeo spoke to Jake,
Other notable person were some individuals scattered in the crowd in hooded gray cloth covering their faces and they smiled,
" We need to bring him in. He is strong and he will definitely help our cause" a voice of a lady spoke out to another with their face hidden in the gray cloak.
Then there is one who stood atop the roof with a snake strapped around his neck. The vikykire,
"Interesting".
Eric meets with hero who questions him as they sat watching other battles, Jake easily won using fire magic and other nobles and peasant. Among those battle Eric notices some strong opponent.
In the battle filed, a lady in purple hooded leather clothing stands in a distant with an experience armoured knight, immediately the announcer announce. Commerce.
In an instant, she vanishes bolting in speed into thin air in matter of seconds, the knight was s***h with his armour scattered in the air into several pieces. The knight was not even aware that he was cut in several pieces as blood scatters into the air from his body. he falls to the ground with his eye wide in shock. That battle came to an end as i spot summoned one walks off the stage, who might summoned one be.
Whats is story,
Summoned one walks through a dark carve under the arena with some notable dark hooded men. They walk as they carry demons hell dog from the dungeon with alchemy the creates a deep carved stony tunnel with pillars under the arena
"Finally, the time is almost at hand, the gathering of magic user at one spot and with this level of magic magoi saturated around the arena my experiment of reviving a Cyclops demon should work",
"Sire, what about princess setsuna, at your command we can end her life", spoke one of the hooded men.
"Be patient, the anti royalist got what they wanted. The prince will be crown king after the kings funeral. I was going to kill her initially but i change my mind when i saw her magic powers , she freezes an entire palace castle to a block of ice. She must be equally as stronger as i am, her magic will help in the demon reviving process and if we were to engage her to battle. It would be a hard fight to win, this why i arrange the play this way. I am always a step ahead"
"What about the princess knights? their movement seem suspicious. i am sure they have men positioned in this tournament." i spot them walking towards the youth, named Eric replied the hooded man
"This tournament is just a ruse for my plan, correct, i created the armour of Santa Rosa with dragon scales however Northern and cross have been fooled by me. The true reason for this tournament is to create a demon from this dungeoned demon hell dog , to do this i need to gather people with powerful magic to raise a dead demon lord, an experiment for my plan, the demon lord that will sink this country to rumbles, the princess is quite powerful indeed and she needs to die no matter what so as my plan can successed. Now begin to draw a magic circle around the arena it should take a day, so we put our plan to motion tomorrow".
