18 Lilildam 7

In about 20 minutes in the contest Samael found the first gold coin hidden on the rooftop.

"1 down 4 more to go." He said and kept the coin. Others of course, didn't have any objections since he was the one who found it.

After about an hour of randomly wandering they managed to find 2 more coins. Seeing as Morana was still asleep Anna's motherly side got a bit worried and she finally asked Samael.

"Does he always sleep so much?"

Samael didn't really want to communicate with these people, but since Morana told him to be nice he had no choice but to speak with them.

After all, even though Morana was like a little brother(sister) to him, he was still the Master.

"Kids need more sleep." Is all what he answered. He might have accepted to communicate with these lowly beings, but that didn't mean he was planning to explain anything.

Well you can't really blame her for sleeping so much after all it was a side effect of practicing seer's powers.

After receiving the answer Anna wanted to continue talking, but Jake called them as he found another coin.

"Now we only need one more coin and we are good to go." Said Anna.

And as if gods heard their plea Another group showed up in front of them.

"Hand over all your coins and I will let you go." Said the guy in the middle.

At first glance you could already tell he was a rich and arrogant second generation. He had grass green hair and brown eyes. Nothing special if you don't include his narcissistic vibe that thought the world rolled around him.

"Get lost brat or big brother won't hold back and beat you up." Said Jake.

"You… how dare you talk to young master Paul like that. He can just squash you little ant anytime if he wants."

Said one of the mob members with unmemorable features.

His words fueled that that second-generation grass's arrogance. Unfortunately, he was bound to hit a wall this time.

"I couldn't care about his oh so great background, if you have strength then fight if not get lost." Said Jake once again.

"You bastard. Don't regret later." Said mob number 2.

Well in 5 minutes all 4 mob guys together with the second-generation grass were spread on the ground in unflattering poses.

It seemed like they have gathered 3 gold coins Jake just took one and left the rest where it was. Anyway, they didn't need more.

"Let's go back to the arena." Said Samael and others agreed. This whole time Francis didn't talk much, he would usually just nod his head and stay quiet.

After 5 minutes they got back to the arena without much trouble. One group managed to arrive before them.

And just like their group they also collected only 5 coins.

Time was about to run out so other groups also started coming back. Total of 60 people managed to get through the next stage out of the initial 300.

"Since everyone is here it's time to start the 3rd and last stage of the competition one on one duels." Announced Stefan.

There were exactly 10 arenas.

Morana got 8th arena and second duel, Samael got 4th arena and 1st duel.

Some people who didn't like Morana's carefree act were rejoicing thinking that's she would be taught a lesson.

Her first opponent was a very buffed guy with ginger hair and long ginger beard.

Other than Morana and Samael Francis got 3rd fight of 5th Arena while Jake got 1st fight of 9th arena and Anna got 3rd fight of 6th arena.

Samael finished his battle very quickly and took Morana to her arena.

Jake also wrapped up his fight and went to watch Anna's battle. It seemed like a battle on 6th arena would take a while, since both contestants were roughly of same strength.

Same on Francis's side. On the other hand, Morana's turn came very quickly So, all of them decided to watch her battle.

As Jake, Anna and Francis sat down to watch the battle Samael picked up Morana and walked up the arena.

"It's a one on one fight." Said referee.

"I know." Answered Samael shortly and didn't pay him any attention.

'If you know the what are you doing?' Was what he thought but didn't dare to voice out because of fear.

After Samael brought Morana on the platform where her opponent already stood. He woke her up.

"Hmm. Is it time already?" She asked sweetly, meting the heart of all the woman in the audience.

"Hmm." He said.

"Oh…" was all Morana said as she set up in his arms and started to rub her watery eyes once again attacking the audience.

It took her a minute to sober up and come down from Samael's arms.

"You can go down." She said while waving him away.

At this Samael could only helplessly shake his head and go down the arena.

In fact, no one knew what Morana's powers were except Samael, as they have not seen her use any in the whole competition.

When the signal for the beginning of the battle was fired audience saw as a big buff guy flew at the child who was still looking around a bit disoriented from waking up.

Some with faint heart even closed their eyes, already imagining the child's bad ending, while there were some who rejoiced in Morana's misfortune.

But none of them believed what happened next.

The cute and weak child caught the buff guys punch like it was nothing and the next second set the whole guy on fire and threw him off the ring. Winning the battle.

Even after referee announced her win and she was picked up by Samael people were still shocked and didn't knew how to react.

Somewhere in the audience the great unlucky ancestor Morana and her brother Samael managed to catch the eyes of various powerhouses.
