When Fred and his partner, Rickey, had a lot on their heads, Tejasv and Daemon only chuckled. After this much drama and watching the disillusioned expressions of Fred, Daemon considered it high time for the battle to begin.He glanced at Tejasv and asked for permission with an eye gesture. Tejasv glanced back and replied to wait for a while more. He had to foresee and envisage any other variable Fred could claim at this moment for his survival."Will he choose to abandon Rickey or is there something else I'm missing? Everything is going a lot easier than it should be. I heard Fred is a master of strategies, but what happened? Watching his partner's reaction, it seems not even Rickey knows anything new. Does that mean Fred amounted to only this much?" Tejasv pondered.While everyone thought Fred had lost his wits, Tejasv still considered this whole act a facade that Fred came up with on the spot. Since Fred's strategy worked all this time, it was hard to say he’d die that easily.Due to
Fred continued his suggestion, "Let's duel, one from my side and one from yours, lord Tejasv. Both sides would clash with no intervention whatsoever. The side that wins may bask in the glory of others' slavery or blood. What do you say? Isn't this a marvelous way to decide the outcome between us?"His proposition was certainly good for a man about to die. He planned things through to save his skin from the mess before him. Tejasv found him in his tracks, so Fred had to either fight until he died or maybe try to buy some time.Tejasv grinned and said, "Lord? Well, I like the sound of that! And Ah! about your proposition of a duel: I like that idea and even your intention behind that."Tejasv realized Fred wanted to fight his way out of here with his subordinates' strength. Even if he gets defeated here, what more will happen? He’ll talk his way to pleading submission before Tejasv and becoming his subordinate, but Tejasv wasn't one to not infer these intentions.A snake remains a snake,
Tejasv and Fred glanced at each other, and Fred swallowed in fear. Tejasv grinned at this devastating query of Daemon. He almost knew what Daemon meant, and even his enemies could see his glare.Tejasv gestured to Fred to ask whether he was ready for a bloody battle and let the fighters lose their desires in flesh and blood. Meanwhile, Fred glanced at his companion, Rickey, to receive his opinion.Although Fred realized this action of his would deem him below Tejasv since a lord never asks for his subordinate or warriors' opinion when initiating a duel for a cause or maybe for no reason. Even though Fred wanted to receive a simple gesture of approval from Rickey because the duel would be between him and Daemon.A fighter must battle with his heart to display his might more appropriately and even most vigorously. Sometimes this gesture gives the vassal comfort who belongs to a fixed party. That was the only reason for Fred to first ask his subordinate for approval.Rickey glanced back a
Daemon and Rickey both peered at each other with ecstatic grins on their faces. The thrill of battle to death had a pleasure only warriors could feel while fighting a worthy opponent. That same scenario and event had taken place before both the fighters.Rickey had fought only simple, weak enemies all this time, whether it be before the dungeon or even before the appearance of monsters. The same could be said about Daemon. He fought a lot in his life, but only a few could make him feel threatened.Daemon and Rickey today met worthy foes; from their perspective, this battle now turned to their personal convivial rather than a duel fought in regards to their lords. Both smiled and grinned in an inscrutable way. They forgot the two people standing behind them and totally fixed their gaze on the enemy in front of them. The adversary who could experience the same titillation as one, it's hard for someone to find an opponent of high caliber and similar frenzy to them.Rickey grunted and rep
Rickey looked to Fred for permission to use his skills, while Tejasv had already given his approval with his bold statement; however, Daemon's skill wasn't exactly hidden, to begin with. Not accurately, but maybe vaguely.Almost everyone knew he had a skill that led him to increase his size enormously, but other than that, nobody had any grasp on the correct information. Yet Daemon wasn't afraid of any threat or counter to his skill.On the other hand, it was Tejasv who had concerns over that fact since the enemy could have made contingency plans before the initiation of the duel or maybe even before that. However, neither Tejasv nor Daemon were aware of their abilities, nor of Rickey or even Fred."What is it they’ll show now?" Tejasv contemplated while Daemon snorted, gazing at Rickey. He squinted his eyes and stared at the arena and Rickey.Daemon and Rickey both glared at each other while Tejasv glanced at Fred. His eyes widened and his brows were wet when he noticed Fred grinning.
Both Rickey and Daemon had resolved and were determined to use all the might in their power to begin this duel in a different direction. Both sides had displayed just the top of the heap. Now it's time to use everything, whether it be skill or strength.Rickey cracked his neck and said, "Are you ready to face the fist of your opponent for the first time? You must have only pounced on enemies with those robust punches, but today your face will have bruises of defeat."Daemon scoffed and chuckled. He replied in a haughty tone, "Maybe I’ll see your bloody body after the duel and about your punches; You’ll observe why no one could thrash me until now in any fight."They peered at each other and grunted. Although both sides stood proudly and boasted, there was a lingering fear in their hearts about the opponent's strength and skills. Fighting in these moments of the duel, one could easily deduce the strength and weaknesses.From the start of this duel, they both knew the end would be drasti
Daemon was standing still with not even an ounce of his blood on the floor. He endured that punch of Rickey and took it head-on. Nor did it seem like it hurt or nobody could spot even a bruise on him. Daemon stood grinning, watching the baffled faces of everyone.They all expected the battle to end with that clash, but Daemon somehow survived that supposed final strike of Rickey. Fred and Rickey frowned with wide eyes, while Tejasv let out a sigh of relief and smirked. His faith stood tall before his foes."How the hell did he survive the strike that would even thrash boulders to bits and mash them into sand? Is that his skill? No, he must have something as a weapon or armor. Maybe it's something I don't even know." Fred thought inwardly.While Rickey had some thoughts of his own, one should assume he had his head blanched with that outrageous battle. He swallowed and backed off from Daemon. He tried to clear his jumbled head, "W-what happened? Why is he still alive after that? I could
While others focused on the strange event, Rickey chortled aloud. He said with a smirk, "Well, Daemon I'm not as good a fighter as you, but I know how to leave a wound on my opponent even when I'm defeated. You may not have realized it, but I kept punching you again and again in the same place while enduring your beating. One of my punches may have been like a flea to you, but with numerous of them, now you feel the pain..haha."Daemon realized he had made a mistake by considering himself to be mighty and greater in every battle. However, his ignorance got him good. Although this injury won't harm him much, it would hinder him for some time in recent battles.Daemon grunted with fury, and Rickey laughed with ecstasy. After a momentary pause, even Daemon let out a slight chuckle. He never felt such a thing in any of his last fights. It was a hilarious event for him, and so he felt a deep thrill.Daemon acclaimed, "Haha... you did well. I didn't think you could have wounded me even after
