A Losing Battle Part 3

When Aria tried to destroy Yuki's attack again with her bare hands, she shook and backed away.

"What happened?"

"Why did the City Lord back away?"

All of the people were confused about why she did that, but only the high officials and Rory know why Aria backed away.

Seconds later, Aria's hand started to ooze out blood that shocked everybody.

"She got stronger by drinking blood!" All of them thought.

But that was not all, Yuki was far from done. Yuki again created tons of Ice Swords and covered the entire field, those individuals Ice can alone kill any one of them in a single hit.

"Fall!" Yuki ordered, she then also dashed towards her and exchanged blows with Aria.

Aria was still using her bare hands but this time she covered them with Qi, even though she still felt the pressure from Yuki's attack.

"Looks like I gotta use a weapon," Aria said.

She then grabbed a normal-looking spear with no special abilities and exchanged blows again with Yuki.

Just the wind that is coming from both of them caused the whole people to be terrified, along with the terrifying pressure that Yuki is releasing.

Because of "Blood Rush", Yuki's bloodlust is twice the stronger so the whole battlefield has purely become Ice.

And because of that, the cold wind from the attacks caused them to shiver.

"Good, I want to see how long you can last," Rory mutters under her breath, the longer she watches Yuki the more intrigued she is to let Yuki be her disciple.

When Aria saw that her 25% power is still losing, she finally decided to use half of her true powers. Her pressure exploded causing Yuki to stop her movements and look at her with wide eyes.

Even though Yuki was bloodthirsty right now, she still has a little bit of satiny within her, and she cannot accept that she was fighting someone that is not even serious.

So she decided to use everything that she got, from trapping Aria with Ice and slashing her every second. Because her dexterity is barely the minimum she is having a hard time countering Aria's spear attack so she was the one who is more hurt.

And finally, the finishing move ends when Aria saw that Yuki was already tired and her moves got slower. She lunges her spear towards her causing Yuki's balance to fall and finally the spear hits her and puts a hole in her stomach.

Yuki knelt on the ground while holding onto her stomach, no matter how "Blood Rush" heals her it was useless as there was a lingering effect on her wound where it denies her to heal.

She coughed up a lot of blood to the point that she is swimming in her pool of blood.

"Give up, I will still heal you and I promise that I will take good care of you once you become under me," Aria said while cracking her knuckles.

Her hands were stiff when she exchanged blows with her, as she didn't expect Yuki's attack to be that strong.

"Go to hell," Yuki said before doing a hand motion.

Aria and the rest didn't understand it at first, but when they felt an extreme amount of pressure in the sky they looked up to only see a dozen Ice Meteors in the air descending at fast speed.

"We're gonna die!" All of them screamed trying to run away.

"Looks like this is your final attack and from the looks of it, it can destroy this whole area with ease." Aria comment.

But then her eyes got serious and she raised her spear in the air.

"Holy Dragons Judgement!" Aria's spear started to glow and seconds later a silhouette of a Golden Dragon came into view to all of them and it shattered all the Ice Meteors with ease causing them to be useless in the end.

"Looks like I truly have no chance of defeating you huh?" Yuki said while trying to stand up, her "Blood Rush had long been deactivated and when she tried to drink a Health Potion it didn't even heal her by one Point.

"Yes, didn't I tell you?" Aria said with a smug.

She then began walking towards Yuki and just as she was about to pat her on the head. Someone grabbed her hand and said.

"Hold on, who said you can claim her? I found her first so she will be under me." Rory said, not even bothering to hide her true form.

Alan and the rest got worked up and they immediately surrounded Rory with their weapons pointed toward her.

Aria waved and said calmly, "Don't do anything, I know her."

"May I ask who she is?" Alan said while still pointing his weapon.

"She is the principal of the Royal Beast Academy and is on the same level as me," Aria answered.

All of them were quiet when they heard Aria and they started to back away slowly while still keeping their guard up.

"So, what do you mean Rory?" Aria said with a clear annoyance in her voice and she slapped away Rory's hand.

"Oh nothing much, I will just take her to my school and teach her personally," Rory answered

"What, you don't even take any students and you want her to study under you, are you joking?" Aria laughed.

"Of course not!"

"What, why do you suddenly want her to be your student?" Aria asked

"Because I see a lot of potentials and so do you right?" Rory answered with a smirk.

"I know that's why I want her to be my student!" Aria rebuked and continued.

"Plus we made a bet and she lost, so it's only natural for her to be mine," Aria warns as she slowly starts to release her Qi.

When Rory felt it, she also started to release her own. Just as their battle was about to start they heard a loud cry from afar.

"Mom!"

"Mama!"

And soon after a Pink Lizard and a Dragon Girl came into their view while hugging Yuki's body and looking at them with hatred in their eyes.

"What did you do to my Mom!?" Katsumi said in a cold voice.

She was unintentionally releasing her powers and resulting in the gravity around her being much stronger.

But instead of getting worried, Rory was very happy and looked at Katsumi and Yumie with excitement in her eyes.

"Very good, turns out she also had these two kids that will be a talent in the future," Rory said while clapping her hands, her tail was wagging showing that she is excited.

Katsumi got even angrier when she saw that her question didn't get answered.

"She asked right, what happened to her?" This time it was Yumie, her past cute and naive self was gone and it was replaced with a cold look like what Yuki used to be.

"No, it's not me. It's her, she was the one who hurt your mother." Rory said while shooting a smug look at Aria.

Aria got even angrier at Rory and was about to retort, but when she saw that the two were looking at her with hostility she said the truth.

"Fine it's me, but we made a deal that if she loses she will get punished, and if I lose I'm the one that gets punished. For the results, you can see who loses." Aria said to both of them.

"But you can just knock her out, look at her, she is not even healing!" Katsumi shouted.

"Yeah, Mom has an abnormal regeneration but right now it's not even working," Yumie added.

"Ah about that, I kind of forgot to cancel my power that doesn't let you heal." Aria waved her hand, canceling the power that was implanted in Yuki.

But Yuki was already unconscious, even still her body started to heal as the potion finally have its effects, and soon after the hole in her stomach started to close.

Yuki didn't know but always drinking health potions is bad for her body as she will get tired easily, it was the backlash of it.

"For now I will compensate you by making her better and even letting you stay at my mansion," Aria said, and soon after she teleported the three of them and vanished from the spot leaving all the people shocked.

"Wait for me!" Rory said before also vanishing.
