Carrum said nothing else to arrange. They simply looked each other in the eye. At this point, Carrum knew that there was literally nothing he could say that would sway Arran. This was because he was already hellbent on fighting with him. Whether he was making an excuse to do so or Arran had really noticed his connection to the shades, it didn't matter anymore.
What mattered was that Carrum had to deal with Arran now and he had to deal with him fast!
Arran and Carrum maintained eye contact for a second and in the next moment, they had already made their moves.
With a mighty flap of his wings, Arran shot forward towards Carrum who had already set up a hasty defense by holding his hands up against his body as he attempted to resist Arran's Arran.
Originally, Arran was fifty meters away from Carrum and this distance was crossed in a single second.
Before anybody could even blink, Arran was already in front of Carrum and he was swinging his sword toward
Carrum had various thoughts going through his mind as he anticipated his continued fight against Arran. Although Carrum admitted that he could not match Arran's offensive abilities, this was exactly the kind of match-up he was mostly looking forward to in a battle.Because of Carrum's abilities, he was most suitable for playing the role of a tank in team battles where he would have to endure the hits of others, but that didn't mean that he was not able to counterattack his opponents.Although Carrum's offensive abilities were weak, his defensive abilities more than made up for it and there was also a special surprise that he always had for his opponents that would always catch them unaware which he could use to retaliate.Carrum wanted to know how long it would take Arran to realize what this surprise was.Usually, it would take a few tries before anybody would realize how Carrum was retaliating so during this time they would definitely launch a few more
There was a massive clash between two forces resulting in an explosion that was much larger than the previous one. A large cloud of dust rose up again into the air and just like before a figure was sent flying out of the dust cloud shortly after. The only difference this time was that it was only a single figure that could be seen flying out of the dust cloud.That's right, unlike the first time when both Arran and Carrum had been sent flying at the same time before, this time it was only one person who was sent flying after the collision. As for the second person, his figure could be seen faintly through the dust cloud. The figure in the dust cloud was standing upright with a long sword in his hand and a pair of large wings spreading outwards behind him.It was very clear who this figure belonged to, that could only mean that the person who was sent flying this time was none other than Carrum.Right now, Carrum after being sent flying by Arran was left tumbling
The alliance had lost and their forces scattered and disbanded. what remained of the previously powerful alliance of defeated participants was nothing more than a shell of its previous self which was left for the pickings.With the defeat of the alliance in Arran's hands, the rest of the participants who were watching the show finally made their move and they hunted down the remnants of the alliance hoping to get a few rewards from the ensuing chaos.Apart from hunting down the alliance members for their tokens, some participants were also on the lookout for Arran. Even if the hope of finding Arran in the surrounding chaos was slim, the participants did not give up the hope that they may luck out and that Arran might have suffered a few losses himself. But the participants who thought like this were only in the minority and the majority of them were mainly focused on hunting down the alliance members and their tokens.All this did not concern Arran and Brianna a
Arran and Brianna finally stopped after they were five kilometers away from their previous stronghold. Throughout the time they were running away they had not come across any other participants or obstructions and everything had been smooth sailing for them.This was to be expected since most of the participants would be at the cave where Arran and the alliance had had their showdown. there, a massive free-for-all was happening and everybody was vying for the tokens that the alliance had collected.As for the Direbeasts that had originally inhabited this mountain, most of them had already fallen prey to the participants throughout the course of the second elimination round.As soon as Arran and Brianna stopped in a spacious cave, Arran looked around the place, and seeing as it was suitable for their need, he turned to Brianna and said."This place will do. We should start now fusing our tokens and not waste any time. The second round has gone on for long
Arran was devoured by the light and in the next moment, before he realized what was going on, he had already disappeared from where he was. By the time he had come back to his senses, he was already in an unfamiliar place.Arran opened his eyes which he had closed as he was being transported away by the flash of light.Although Arran had not seen what was happening to him, he could feel it through his body that he was moving at a rapid speed. It was like how one would feel when taking a bus or riding a train. that sense of stationary movement where even if your body was not moving on its own, it was still being moved in the end.That was the kind of feeling that Arran was currently having right now.Arran knew that his body was stuck in place and it was not moving on its own but there was something that was carrying him across a vast distance.By the time that feeling disappeared, Arran knew that he had come to a stop.Opening his eyes, ging
Arran, Brianna, and Reed finally stopped standing around and went to explore the waiting room.As they made their way to the various pavilions, the three of them entered into the one that was the closest to them.Upon entering the pavilion, what greeted them were different lounge chairs meant for relaxing as well as various assortments of delicacies and treasures.There was a central table placed right in the middle of the pavilion which had different kinds of foods and drinks. These foods and drinks were not ordinary delicacies as they were made from highly nutritious ingredients that contained a lot of energy.The foods and drinks were mostly made from the bodies of powerful Direbeasts as well as natural treasure herbs and plants and they were meant to supplement the energy that the participants had lost during the ceremony. Naturally, apart from being nutritious, they would definitely be very delicious since they had been made by the hands of the most
"Arran, that idiot!" Somebody cursed out loud, attracting the attention of everybody in the room.Turning towards the origin of the curse, nobody was surprised to find out that the culprit who was being loud and attention-grabbing was none other than Charmy. It did not come as a surprise because, over the course of the second elimination round, Charmy would on regular intervals erupt with high emotions, stirring up a fuss and drawing attention to herself.The people in the room were already used to it and since they could not do or say anything about this as she was a princess of the civilization, they all chose to ignore Charmy's antics.As soon as everybody had confirmed that it was indeed Charmy who was stirring up a fuss, they immediately turned their heads and paid attention to the activities of the participants.As for Eris who was standing beside Charmy at the moment and throughout all the times this had happened, she was already long numb to Charm
An hour had passed and the second elimination round was officially over.The small field where the participants who had cleared the second elimination round to rest was filled and all the pavilions were occupied. Counting roughly, the participants who had advanced to this stage numbered to about close to two thousand, and they were distributed individually throughout the various participants.These participants were either resting or eating the pills or delicacies so as to replenish their strength and stamina.Most of these participants had arrived in fairly good condition and they had not been very injured or exhausted when they had arrived, but there were some among the later participants who had been severely exhausted or injured when they had arrived in this field. Through these people, one could guess just how brutal and harrowing the competition had been at the end of the elimination round.Naturally, it was a given that as the second elimination ro
