Rating Game (III)

|3rd POV|

Sitting on a chair in the middle of a beautiful garden is an equally beautiful woman. She is wearing a white and red kimono, around her neck is a blood-red magatama and sitting on top of her head is a crown with the shape of the sun.

This woman is Amaterasu, Goddess of the Sun of the Japanese people.

"How is it, brother?"

Walking toward her is a man wearing a deep blue Yukata. He is a rather tall man, 191 cm. He has a necklace made of magatama in different colors. He has a gourd strapped into his belt.

This man is Susanoo, the brother of Amaterasu.

" Yeah, I got it. Shirou Emiya, the son of Kiritsugu Emiya. Well, adopted son. His birth parents have died in the great fire that happened in the city of Iki. his adopted father found him unconscious and decided to adopt him."

"I see. How did a descendant of CuChulainn appear in Japan?"

"I did not know. The only thing I can think of is that one of the descendants of CuChulainn decided to retire here."

"I see."

Amaterasu nodded and looked at the hologram in front of her. It looks like the devil got another powerful recruit. Amaterasu is not angry at Riser recruiting a descendant of CuChulainn from under her nose. She is more annoyed that she did not know there is a descendant of a famous person living in her country.

She wants at least to have a good relationship with this Shirou Emiya before he gets recruited.

"How is his life?"

"Bad. After his father died, he got kicked out of his parent's house and needed to earn money by working from place to place. It was when he got framed by someone and kicked out from his latest workplace, he broke. If not for Riser, I think he would be dead by now."

Amaterasu releases a tired breath when she hears that. Humans are interesting creatures. They can be the kind creatures on this planet that even angels blush at their kindness. However, they can also become the cruelest creature that makes an evil god have an orgasm.

Amaterasu did not want a descendant of a man that can fight god toe-to-toe and goes on a rampage in her country to take revenge for what Japanese people do to him.

For now, she needs to make a good relationship with Shirou Emiya. Amaterasu is confident she can defeat him at his strongest, but she prefers a good relationship rather than use violence.

Lucky for her and the entire Shinto Pantheon, this background is what the company created to make Shirou and co, as a native of this world. How unfortunate for Shirou that he got the attention of the Gods. Shirou and his E-rank luck.

Speaking of Shirou, he is currently standing on the stage looking at his third opponent called Jiang Chen, a martial artist from China. From what Riser gets, he is an opponent that can use his qi to enchant his body and use it to create a long-ranged attack.

However, what makes Jiang Chen dangerous is his special technique called Demon Banishing Technique. It was a technique used by martial arts to kill a creature with a demonic nature.

'As long as I did not get hit by that technique, I'm good,' Shirou thought as the MC did a countdown.

"And Start!"

Like the first match, Jiang Chen did not waste time attacking Shirou as he appeared in front of the redhead and threw a flurry of punches. Shirou can dodge the first five punches, but the last three punches hit their target.

Shirou leaps away from Jiang Chen and creates a black bow before firing an arrow toward the martial artist. Seeing the incoming attack, Jiang Chen condenses his Qi and fires a Qi bullet to hit the arrow.

However, when Jiang Chen hit the tenth arrow, two arrows came from his side without him knowing and hit him.

*BOOM* *BOOM*

Two small explosions happened when the two arrows hit Jiang Chen. While the arrow hit him, it only caused a small amount of damage to Jiang Chen.

Seeing Jiang Chen's state, Shirou knows why the man in front of him is worth three pawns.

Shirou fires another dozen of arrows, but this time, he quickly switches to his spear after firing his arrow. Shirou appears in front of Jiang Chen when he destroys Shirou's arrow with the arrows as a cover.

Shirou thrust his spear toward Jiang Chen, who tried to block it by creating a ten-layer barrier using his Qi.

*CRACK* *CRACK* *CRACK*

Jiang Chen gritted his teeth as he saw three layers of his barrier broken by Gae Bolg. However, lucky for Jiang Chen, the spear only broke three layers of the barrier. After blocking the barrier, Jiang Chen pushed away from the spear and charged toward Shirou with his fist ready.

Shirou widens his eyes when he sees Jiang Chen appear in front of him. He raised his spear and blocked the incoming attack before making a swinging attack to try to attack Jiang Chen, but it was blocked rather easily.

Thrust. Swing. Block. Dodge. Thrust. Kick. Punch.

Both Shirou and Jiang Chen are at a deadlock as they fight each other in close combat. While Shirou can fight Jiang Chen just fine, he knows that Jiang Chen will get the upper hand eventually as he knows that his enemy will get used to his fighting style. He needs to end this.

Shirou kicks Jiang Chen away and leaps away from him.

"I'm sorry, but let's end this fight."

Jiang Chen raised his eyebrow before saying.

"Very well. Let's trade one last attack."

Jiang Chen takes his stance and flares up his Qi. A Golden aura appears around him like a fire that is ready to burn anything on its path.

On the other hand, Shirou jumps high and floats in the air with Gae Bolg in his hands, flaring a blood-red aura. Not only does it release an oppressive aura, but the bloodlust coming from the spear also multiplies up to the point it can kill a normal human who is unfortunate enough in the area. He uses a huge chunk of his reserve to fuel this attack.

"Golden Dragon Roar!"

"Gae Bolg!"

Jiang Chen releases his condensed Qi and fires it toward Shirou. His Qi begins to form an Eastern Dragon that flies toward the redhead.

As for Shirou, he threw his spear toward Jiang Chen. Gae Bolg flies like a comet ready to strike down the earth.

*BOOM*

When both attacks collide, it creates a massive shockwave that creates a crater on the ground under them.

While Shirou is fine after throwing his spear, Jiang Chen is not. He needs to keep feeding his attack to maintain its existence, and right now, he is struggling. Gae Bolg keeps pushing his attack, and his reserve is almost depleted.

If Jiang Chen did not maintain his attack, the golden dragon would have already been destroyed ten times by Gae Bolg.

After a minute of struggling, the golden dragon is destroyed, and Gae Bolg soars toward Jiang Chen. However, before Gae Bolg touched the martial artist, Jiang Chen disappeared from the arena, and Gae Bolg hit the ground.

A sphere of destruction appears and destroys a part of the arena. It lasted for a few seconds, but it was enough to destroy the half of the colosseum Shirou is currently in.

When Gae Bolg stopped and arrived next to the redhead, Shirou teleported away from the arena. When Shirou appears on the stage, he is greeted by another applause.
