4 Hephaestus and Hephaistos

Sitting down in my private room I look through the shop to see if there is anything better to help me with my next match

The next match depends on who wins, I could either be facing the titan of the sun Helios, or I could be facing another algea lype

Deciding to watch some matches to get a better understanding of my opponents I head out towards the arena

"It's a brother and sister battle!! Hephaestus Vs. his twin sister Hephaistos, Drachma is on Hephaestus to win this but who knows there may be some unexpected results

In the arena were the two twins, Hephaestus the male, was ugly but strong, if only for the fact he was good at blacksmithing

Then there was his sister, She was a beautiful woman, except when she was born she had been cursed, One of her eyes had mutated and let her see information on weapons, But the eye looked terrible when looked at so this made other gods and goddess not want to interact with her

The results of their match weren't surprising as Hephaestus easily overpowered Her and was currently stomping her into the ground

"That's enough!" Zeus yelled and then went on to announce the results while people went to take Heiphaistos away from the arena

Seeing the match Adon felt slightly disturbed, From what he, knew siblings shouldn't try and kill each other like Hephaestus just did, but there wasn't much he could do about it

Seeing the girl being carried away made him feel bad in his chest, (This is weird...) He thought to himself before turning away from the girl and watching the next match waiting for his turn

*****

"Ok!" After this match will be the Quarter-Finals of the great Olympian tournament!" Zeus yelled out causing people to cheer

'on the left side we have Helios!!" people clap politely, Mostly because Helios was a titan that people didn't want to cheer

"On the right, We Have Adonymos!!" Zeus yells and Adon gets a proper applause and a few cheers, It wasn't exactly a secret that he was born from Cronus's remains...

"How come you're wearing those chains Helios?"Adon asked with curiosity seeing the large shackles on his wrists and ankles

" They said it was a precaution... my sister has it worse than I though" He looks down with a sad smile

"Don't worry, If you become an Olympian I'm sure that you'll be pardoned from any suspicions that they have of you"Adon gave an encouraging smile and started the Synchronization process

This was his true goal of joining the tournament, If he could synchronize with these people he could make up the gap of strength he had

*Synchronization time:20 Minutes*

Seeing the timer Adon sighed, From the tutorial, it said that the more comfortable the person was with you, or the more familiar they are with you, then the faster the time

But since Helios was probably just as cautions of him being born from the remains of Cronus, he most likely wouldn't be comfortable with him

Getting into a fighting position, Adon lunges forward remembering the wound on his right side, So attacking there would give him an advantage

Helios manages to dodge and slaps Adon causing him to fly back

Adon gets up and realizes his mistake, This guy was a titan! and not just some no name, he was one of the more important titans

Feeling Ichor flowing from his mouth he wipes it and looks at Helios seriously (Think, Think, think) He thought to himself as Helios prepared another attack

*Sizzle*

The temperature starts rising in the Arena and Adon can feel his skin start to burn, Noticing this Helios gives a smile "The power of the sun cannot be chained!"He says can't and walks toward Adon, Each step making the temperature get hotter

*Thunk*

While Helios was getting cocky, Adon used his most useful function to surprise him, the inventory!

With the inventory, you could surprise your opponent just by bringing a weapon out as you were attacking

So while Helios walked forward he aimed his hands and got ready to fire, And once he was ready he summoned the bow and let an arrow fly

"Ahh!" Helios screams, Usually, most things wouldn't hurt him as they would get burned, So feeling an arrow somehow make it's way past his defense was a total surprise

Sun's Bane: An arrow that ignores any heat(50 G-points)

Adon smiles at the results and finishes up by lunging forward and stabbing him in the chest in the middle of his surprise "I'm sorry about you and you're sister, But I need to be stronger" Adon said regrettably Looking down at Helios, then turning and walking away

As he makes it to the waiting area he bumps into a red-haired beauty that he had seen earlier "Oh, I'm sorry I didn't see you there Heiphaistos!" Adon said hurriedly trying to help her up

"Let go!" She yelled then looked down and fiddled her thumbs "Sorry... please don't touch me" She said and walked off

*Synchronization Finished*

Looking at what he got from Helios he widens his eyes (I thought I can only get skills from them!?)

[Sun Force]-SS

The Sun force is a unique power that only a few select individuals are permitted to possess, Grants a 50% boost in strength and energy, Let you control an aspect of the sun

Solar flare Lv. 1: Throw sun energy in a condensed wave

Sewing the effects Adon was happy, But he wasn't sure if he should use it, This was something only a few people were allowed to have, so wasn't it forbidden?

Deciding to worry about the item later he starts paying attention to the next upcoming matches, specifically his next opponent, Thanatos...

(A/N: I hope you guy's are enjoying it so far, if you are curious about the system, the system is basically a tool that will help him get stronger, It will give him normal items and weapons that appear later in the world, But it can also give him items that no one else can ever find anywhere so that's a plus, If you guys would like to know where Adon ranks, Zeus would be a level 250, with his lowest stat being Agility, Which is 670...)
