Reaction Speed

After a long night of nothing but training, Arthur had turned into a living zombie, his head and body began to move when they sensed any amount of abnormal air pressure towards them. It was as if it was part of his instinct to dodge anything that came in his way.

Arthur was previously only able to dodge 3 attacks out of thousands in half a day and now that had turned into at least half of all the attacks that Willam was throwing at him. Maybe it was because his body was trained so much that it could now read the direction of someone's fist but Arthur was getting faster and faster as the days passed with no sign of stopping any time soon.

"Well, Arthur, there's no time for you to train or sleep however it's the decision that you made for yourself so whatever happens to you during your match is none other than your own fault," said Willam in a kind tone before laughing as Yosel left the house so that he could teleport them towards the colosseum once again.

"Are you two ready?" Yosel asked while yawning before snapping his fingers together before Arthur and Willam could reply. As such, he teleported the two of them right on time as the winner from the children division as well as the adult devision were getting on stage and seeing that, Arthur leapt off his seat elegantly before landing on the ground beside his two opponents.

The announcer began to speak as he announced the rules of the match which Arthur and his opponents listened to carefully however the spectators didn't care in the least. They all started betting on who would win. Seeing as how the competition was such a big deal, people were betting crazy amounts of money which they hoped to make more than they put in.

After the announcer finished explaining the rules, the 3 of them took a part of the circular arena and made sure to be spaced out evenly before the announcer allowed the battle to begin.

Instantly Arthur's opponents targeted him as they deemed him their greatest threat and as such, they decided that they would eliminate him first. However unfortunately for them, if Arthur could dodge 50% of the attacks that Willam threw at him, it was guaranteed that he could dodge every single attack that his opponents threw at him. It was as if Arthur had faced a martial arts master then went on to fight 2 toddlers which just learned to walk. It was barely even a challenge for him. However he had sympathy upon the child and decided to slowly tap him out of the ring so that he would have an easy way out. However that would be Arthur's greatest mistake as right as he gave the child a light push, the child's fist came out of no where and landed a devastating blow to Arthur's face.

For the first time, Arthur had been attacked and it actually hurt.

"What the hell was that," Arthur asked as he felt his cheek to realize that it was wet. When he looked at his hand after, realized that it was covered in red meaning that he was bleeding. More than anything, Arthur was confused however when he looked at the child's hand, he was it was covered by a shard red gauntlet that had golden lining. It looks to be a magnificent artifact much like the one which one of his first opponents had.

"I see, no wonder someone as inexperienced as you made it this far. However this is where it ends-" Arthur began to speak before getting cut off when the kid punched him in the face once again. However this pushed Arthur past the point where he could remain calm.

"Tier 8 Spell: Ice Lord's Winter"

Using this spell, Arthur instantly froze both his opponents in place before walking forward towards the kid that dared to punch him two times.

"Just wondering, cutting people's limbs is allowed right?" Arthur asked to which the announcer seemed worried but quickly dismissed the idea because he assumed that Arthur would be cutting the limbs of the adult instead of the child.

"There's no rules which forbid it so I assume you can do as you please," said the announcer before seeing a sinister grin on Arthur's face.

Arthur walked towards the child without any hesitation before breaking the ice so perfectly so that the child's right arm would be sliced off perfectly.

Everyone instantly gasped in disbelief as they never assumed that Arthur was insane to the point that he could cut off a mere child's hand off of his body just to get an artifact.

"What's wrong? You all looked surprised. I mean I'm strong enough to defeat both of these two at the same time. You couldn't have thought that I could be that strong and also mentally sane at the same time," said Arthur before laughing.

"Tier 3 Spell: Controlled Explosion"

By placing his hand forward, Arthur placed his palm on the piece of ice he had just cut off before exploding the ice into a million pieces. Even so, all that was destroyed was just the ice and the hand of the child. The artifact itself was still intact.

"Oh look what we have here," said Arthur as he picked up the artifact to which it stretched on its own to fit the size of Arthur's hand before it latched on to it. Just as it did that, Arthur felt a surge of power flowing into his body while his eyes began to glow red. With no hesitation, Arthur punched the piece of ice which the man from the adults division was in before breaking the ice into millions of pieces as he turned his opponent to dust. Seeing this, the spectators gasped at how merciless Arthur was. However he wasn't done.

Arthur slowly walked to the small boy before pulling his fist back as if he was going to kill him with a punch as well.

"I'm just kidding, I would never do something so evil," said Arthur which caused everyone to let out a sigh of relief.

However Arthur then snapped his fingers which caused the child's ice to explode into dust to which Arthur began to laugh his heart out.
