“Where are we? ”, It Skylar asked, frantically looking around her for any clue. She had expected their little test to go on in the same but she was dead wrong. “Relax, we were just teleported to a different location, nothing to be worried about, we just need to survive for two weeks while also beating everyone we come across. ” Ragnar said in a flat monotone voice that denoted his calmness. In truth, Ragnar was dead-shit scared, but his way of coping with fear was by telling those around him why they should not be afraid. “First we need to g......... ”Ragnar was interrupted by the voice that was being blasted from all sides, by some kind of magical speaker. “Attention everyone, numbers will appear above your heads after this message, the lower the number the higher your rank in this competition. Increase your number by beating others and taking their spots. And remember, there are some hidden treasures around you, find them and keep them. ” The voice said. And just like the v
The mages wasted no time responding to the threat, turrets of magical attacks of different kinds were all flying toward Ragnar at an incredible speed but Ragnar remained calm, unshaken, and focused. Ragnar pulled the Mana Flames sword which he had used in combat against the shadow reaper and activated it. The sword furiously burned with bright red ethereal flames, which carried a malevolent intensity and heat that could easily cut through basic armor. Using his enhanced speed from his demon form, Ragnar dashed towards the idiot who had started all this with the headache, Tony. Ragnar appeared before Tony, aiming to cut off those little arms that he used to inflict so much pain on him. Tony froze on the spot, mages weren't trained for frontline or close-quarter battles like the battle mages, knights, and combat classes, so he had no idea what to do in the face of such danger. Ragnar swiped his sword at an inhuman speed, cutting through the air with ease and defying wind resistance
“And who the fuck are you? ” Alex screamed, he hated the very idea of interruption or distraction with passion. The mere presence of the unknown figure threatened his chances of getting his way with the females, getting the elixir and some money. “Let's just say, I'm a dragon. ” Nate said as he emerged from the shadows, his previously, red glowing eyes returning to normal, and a scrazy smile on his face. “Aren't you a delusional chap? ” A short boy wearing a purple cape just like that of the girl from earlier. “We'll see about that, shall we? ” Nate asked politely, a complete contrast to his thoughts. “Very well. ” The boy said and his arms began to spark with purple lighting in the form of water just like the girl from earlier. [Lightning bolt]. A red lightning bolt left Nate's arm, thundering forward at an incredible speed, hitting the purple-robed boy right in the stomach and sending him flying. ‘Woah, I love this new effect. ’ Nate said to himself, his lightning bolt skill
Nate turned his book only to be stricken by awe of the monstrous figure before him.A ten-foot-tall, white-skinned individual with blue hair and handsome facial features had entered his field of vision.In a forest shrouded with moonlight, a looming figure emerged from the shadows, standing at a towering twelve feet. His presence cast a foreboding darkness that seemed to absorb the feeble light around him. The air thickened with an unsettling tension as the giant's heavy footsteps echoed ominously, sending tremors through the ground.The giant's silhouette was grotesque, a monstrous amalgamation of sinew and muscle, giving an impression of sheer power. His skin, rough and ashen, bore scars like ancient battle wounds, telling tales of countless conflicts. Each step he took sent a gust of stale air tinged with the metallic scent of blood, hinting at the violence that clung to him like a haunting specter.His eyes, two piercing orbs of malevolence, gleamed with an unnatural luminescenc

The body of the titan began faring into golden dust, whisking away into the wind, disappearing completely like it wasn't even there in the first place. The sight of this made Nate wonder and appreciate the amount of magic, mastery, and intellect that was required to create such a magical marvel. The mag
In his heart, Nate vowed to make Baldor and his friend suffer for even having the thought of challenging him, and he was fully ready to achieve his mission by any means. Nate found himself pitted against the foolish duo of Baldor and Nathan. The moon's feeble light struggled to pierce through the towering trees, casting an ominous atmosphere over the battleground.The glow emmiting from Nate's gauntlets intensified, signifying that he was ready for battle and he wasn't going to hold back against his opponents. Baldor, a sturdy figure with a determined gaze, had the ability to mold weapons from the very stones beneath his feet.Nathan, a fluid embodiment of grace, conjured a whip made of water that shimmered in the pale moonlight. The trio stood in silence surrounded only by the rustling leaves and distant sounds of nocturnal creatures.The three individuals, carefully scrutinizing themselves, creating the best path of attack for them in their minds. Nate had a confident smirk on hi
Back at the cave where Nate, Ragnar, Skylar, And Emax were taking cover. Nate then proceeded to tell the others about the fight that had occurred that day. How they had run into trouble with the mages and for some reason they seemed to have Ragnar and planned to use him for some kind of strange sacrifice. Skylar and Emax were shocked to the bone that such a thing could go on during the competition. They thought they were all constantly being monitored by the outside world and that at the slightest sense of something odd, the masters would come to save them but they were wrong. Yes, they were constantly being monitored on the large holographic displays of the coliseum but the masters knew that students couldn't die here and they would just turn into golden dust and reappear in the coliseum. However, this didn't stop people from throwing weird looks at the master of the mage department, everyone wondered what she had instilled into her students to give them such a level of hatred.
The golden rays of the sun looming over the battle royale location had pierced through its skies and the sounds of wildlife beginning their day could be heard. Nate woke up to a little bit of pain in his head from sleeping on a rock, he looked across his group and they were all there, Ragnar seemed to be mouthing off some words but he couldn't discern what it was. “Great, Nate Bliss has decided to bless us with his presence. ” Ragnar said angrily while staring at Nate who was just getting up, his mind was still a little hazy from sleep but it was nothing too severe. “Yeah, yeah, what's up? ” Nate asked casually, he couldn't care less about Ragnar's “Leader” fantasy and just decided to play it cool. “Same thing, let's all head out and rendezvous here in the night, then maybe we'd venture deeper into the forest, I have a feeling those are where the so-called hidden treasures are being kept, and others have most likely begun to make their way there. ” Ragnar stated frantically, mouth
