My Best Friend is the Hero

After getting betrayed and killed by someone he holds dear. Max finds himself thrown into another world as a baby. Born as the first son of one of the supreme general and first general of demon army. Max (Arcon) has to strive to reach the expectations of the society. As though the world wants to mock him, when his powers are checked, not only does he have only an ego, which falls short as a primal demon, his only ability is luck. Through the encouragement of his ever-loving mother, he pulls himself together and trains to live a decent and quiet life and not disappoint them any further. To pour spit on the wound, one of the most prodigious demons named Crystal Del Monre takes deep interest in him after hearing a prophecy. He tries his best to avoid her eyes and the attention that it brings but all to no avail. Through her tortures...err...help, training and tutelage, he manages to advance to higher levels of strength, but such training brings about problem, a problem to his essence. His essence now tainted with chaos aims to drive him to and past his breaking point through unending nightmares. After ending the hero and his group and subduing the human army, the demon continent is plunged into chaos by an organisation whose end goal is to put demon back on their 'right path', the path of never destruction and carnage. This event leads to Arcon's most fruitious encounters. During a dungeon raiding as per usual with Crystal, he stumbles into a missing room with an enchanted book at its centre. Feeling compelled, he walked closer, hands outstretched towards the book. He had finally reached it, all the conditions clear, the space and state to complete his missing part. Chaos was complete, his mind serene, his purpose, his goal clear. Rain down destruction and chaos to the world. Engrave their hearts with fear at the utterance of his name. Who was going to stop him? The monster in him finally unleashed. What hero could slay his predatorial hunger? The time for demons to rule drawing ever closer. The fate of all other races dangling on a thread. A force on like any other, only another of greater intensity could bring an end to it. Who might it be? Where might they be? Only time will tell.

Quater-finals II

*Few minutes later*

The arena has been reconstructed and the new contestants were facing each other. Dalphnia on the right and Iruma on the left. The screams of the crowd have reached fever pitch and the anticipation is literally bursting.

"Don't let me down, Iruma", with a grin on her face she points at him.

"Your reign shall meet its end here and now", Iruma begins his attack by launching several arrows at her at hypersonic speed, but she easily destroys them all with her punches. Iruma jumps back and blasts a dark red arrow at her. She punches the ground causing rock to block the arrows path. The arrow touches one of the rocks and it blows up. Out of the explosion several elemental arrows lunge at her. She clenches her fists which is covered in lightning and punches the air causing a huge streak of red lightning which blows up all the arrows. He appears above her and fires eight pink arrows at her.

"Enough tricks!" she strikes the air releasing a wave of energy which destroys all the arrows and knocks him into the air. The arrows turn into pink smoke that covers her surroundings. Iruma lands on the ground with a smile on his face.

"She fell for it", he launches a flaming arrow into the mist causing a huge explosion. Before he could realize it, she appears at his front and punches him square on the chest. He flies back and crashes into the wall. She dusts off the residual smoke that surrounded her.

"You really thought you could poison me so easily. Get serious if you don't want to die", lightning covers her hand as she starts punching the air rapidly causing lightning and energy to repeatedly hit him before he could fall to the ground, she grabs his head and smashes it into her knee as his head bounces back, she kicks it up and punches his chest. Her eyes widen as she sees the smirk on his face as he holds her hand.

"I got you", several arrows burst out of her hand as he smiles. She delivers a vertical kick and follows it with a palm on the chest, drags him back and lands an energy filled hit on his throat as she lets go. He crashes into the wall as she looks at him with a smile.

"To think your petty tricks would do this much. This match may not be such a let-down", the smile on her face only widens as she draws near.

"Only four minutes in and I'm already getting pushed back. I need to take this seriously if I want to be the decisive winner", he comes out of the wall and looks at her.

"I like that look in your eyes", she said as she stomps the ground. In the blink of an eye, Iruma's hair and eyes turns pink, and he appears behind her ready to attack. [Pink Fury]

"That's fast", she couldn't dodge the attack, so she decides to block it. Arrows starts raining down on her, she tries her best to block it using her energy, but they just overwhelm her, and she crashes into the wall. The onslaught continues for 20 seconds more as arrows just keep pouring down on her. Once it stops, he lands in front of the hole and his hair and eyes go back to normal.

"I can't use that power recklessly. It drains quite a ton of my stamina", he whispers. "This isn't over yet", just as he finishes his statement, she jumps out of the hole looking quite injured but seemed to be enjoying herself.

"That is the kind of power that gets my blood pumping", she throws a punch in the air releasing a wave of energy which destroys from just below her to the other end of the arena (70%). She raises her hand as a big ball of red energy forms and she it down causing an even deeper crater in the destroyed region.

"Power rules! Power(X20)", she continuously releases beams of energy which her punches as he counters with multitudes of arrows. The collision causes shockwaves and fireworks all around.

"More. More. More. More. I… need…...more!!!" the power of her energy beams just kept increasing as time went by while his decreased by the minute.

After 8 minutes of this exchange, Iruma got overwhelmed and was buried under the mountains of attacks she lands. Once she was done, all that was leftis a very deep crater which was once the arena and an unconscious body at the left end of the arena.

"So that is all", she said in a disappointed tone as she looked at him. "Just when it started to seem a bit fun. Why are the people in my class so weak?" with a sigh she turns away and the crowd cheered loudly for her, and they were teleported away.

*Few minutes later*

The arena is now fixed, and the last contestants are ready to duel. On the right, Lumos and on the left, Chelsie

Name: Lumos

Ego: Gravity manipulation

Inherent Talent: Amplification

Lumos ties his long gold hair to a ponytail as his red eyes are fixated on Chelsie, who looks as gloomy as ever. Lumos wastes no time in launching his first attack. The whole ring goes deeper into the ground and just as he's about to launch several rocks at Chelsie. His vision becomes blurry as the darkness around him spreads. Blood starts coming out from his eyes, nose and mouth. His breath becomes short and ragged. He fell to his knees coughing roughly as he spits out blood.

With a loud voice he screams, "Don't count me out yet!" He pushes himself up as everything around him repels. The gravity around them increases by ten folds. The ground begins to crumble and go deeper but Chelsie remains unaffected. He hurls rocks at him but they stop short at his face and crumble. Suddenly, Chelsie flies towards him, he attempts to punch him but his hand crumbles away. He holds his shoulder in pain as he screams in pain.

A dark ball appears on his fingertips. It starts to absorb everything around it aggressively. Just as he is about blast it, a snake wraps around his body and the ball disperses. It is like all his strength is being sapped away. Seconds later, he falls to the ground gasping for air. Chelsie doesn't even bother to look at him. He scratches his shaggy hair as he turns away and starts walking to the edge.

Lumos gathers all his energy to stand up, but a force pushes him to the ground, and he slumps to the ground.

The winners are Fena, Arcon, Dalphnia and Chelsie
