Reaper's Revenge

-Order of Light Arena-

Akko won the match with just light injuries. After her match, she met with us and Lili healed her. She overused her mana but she can recover before her next fight later.

"That was reckless. Akko... You should have ended it faster. If he has good damage and luck, he might have killed you in just a single hit." Elou's right. Well, ignoring her constitution, with her current power right now she can even fight Vulkhan, as long as she won't get hit.

"Thanks, Elou. Don't worry, it was all planned and I win and alive ok? Anyway, good luck with your fights too later." That's right, we still have our fights.

After watching fights from the other participants, it's already Lili's fight again.

"The next match is between Lili, Scythus' party's trusted support and Venum, the Guild Leader of Serpentes!" Aika announced.

(LILI / PRIEST: A)

(VENUM/ POISON SPECIALIST: S)

This is bad! Assassin versus support, that's a really one-sided match up. Without someone to protect the support, support is basically a prey to an assassin but an assassin in a wide arena and no where to establish an ambush is also at a disadvantage.

"Lili, are you going to be ok? He's the guild leader of the Serpentes and we saw how he fought earlier, he's really strong." Akko is worried. We are all worried. You can see in the face of Elou that he knows how strong an assassin is in a 1v1 fight.

"..." Lili's calm and not a single sign of fear can be seen on her face. I don't know if she's just good with her poker face or she really is confident.

"Ok, just make sure that you don't get killed. Good luck!" Elou, she really needs a good luck.

Lili and Venum entered the arena.

"Ready, Fight!" Aika signaled the start of the fight.

Venum without saying anything charged towards Lili. He's really fast, fast enough to get close to Lili's range in just a couple of seconds.

"This is a payback to one of my guild members... POISON STING! Ssss..." Venum threw one of his daggers towards Lili, so fast that naked eyes won't be able to see it. But she was prepared for such attacks. And it looks like he has a grudge after Lili defeated one of his guild officers.

"ULTIMATE BARRIER!" This time she created a barrier that fully protects her body not only from the front but also a full sphere barrier protecting from all kinds of attacks from different directions. This is like an ultimate defense. The dagger hit the barrier and flung towards the ground.

"That's a good defense. How about this! ASSASSIN ACCELERATION! Ssss..." He increased his movement and attack speed dramatically. With that skill, he can continuously attack and evade attacks in exchange of energy.

"FLASHING DAGGERS! Sssss..."

*BAAM BABABAAM!* He attacked Lili's barrier multiple times with his enhanced daggers. You can hear the sound of his weapon hitting the barrier. The attacks were powerful but Lili still maintained her barrier well.

"LIGHT GOD'S HAMMER!" A giant hammer appeared and ready to hit Venum.

*BAAAM!* The hammer hit the ground! Venum with his fast reaction evaded the attack perfectly with just moving that no attack can keep up.

"IMPALING DAGGER! Ssss..." He once again charged to Lili with his dagger, but this time his weapon is covered in a powerful aura. It was a skill that enhances the weapon's penetration!

*BAAAAM!* She still blocked it but it looks like her barrier is almost at its limit. The last attack of Venum was a concentrated penetrating attack that hits a certain spot of the barrier. Unlike those heavy big attacks, the barrier can easily defend from them because heavy attacks cover the large part of the Barrier making the damage spread. But on Venum's case, his attack penetrates like a pickaxe easily cracking a stone.

"IMPALING DAGGER! Ssss..." Another attack from Venum! He hit the same spot, this time his attack pierced and finally destroyed Lili's barrier!

"LIGHT GOD'S PUSH!" Before Venum land his fast attack, Lili used a skill that pushes away foes. Venum got knocked back but he didn't stop from that. It looks like he has good crowd control defenses to move instantly after being pushed back.

"SILENCING THROWING DAGGER! Ssss..." Because Lili's barrier just broke, she can't create a new one fast enough to defend from the attack.

"SWOOOOSH!" She managed to evade it by moving side way as fast as she can but the dagger scratched her left arm.

"Did it hurt little missy? Ssss..." He provocatively asked. The attack was really fast but it didn't damage Lili that much.

"Uu...." Lili tried to use a spell but for some reason, she can't speak! It's not weird at all because she doesn't talk that much but this time... she can't literally cast any spells!

"Are you saying something little missy? Sorry, but I guess my last attack is already taking its effect. Ssss..."That's one of the assassin's skills that can make the target have the "Silenced" status for a while making them helpless because they can't use skills but can still use physical attacks. But this time, Lili's only strength is coming from her spells. Without her spells, she can't fight back!

"You know, it's really not good to end the match that fast... How about I we make it longer? POISON THROWING DAGGER!" Lili tried to avoid the attack but the attack hit Lili's right leg! Her evasive ability is really near as nothing. This is really bad. She is just suffering!

"Uu..." She moaned in pain ... Lili started to lose her leg's strength and fall down on her knees... The poison is already spreading all over her body. She can't even scream from the pain! This is really hard to watch!

Venum came up to her.

"This is the payback for one of my members... Ssss..." He slashed Lili's right arm with his dagger!

"Uu...!" Lili!

"Fellow people of New Life Online! This is really not good to watch with your children! This is horrible! I can't believe someone can do something like this to a child like her!" No sh*t, Aika! Lili's really not doing well. There's no way she can win at this state. Even if she wants to surrender, she won't even able to say it. And I don't think she's a child!

What a cowardly thing to do! Using a silencing attack on a one on one fight! Lili's health is really going down fast with the poison and the injury she is getting injuries from the attacks of Venum.

"And because you look like you are really going to die soon... I will slowly kill you..." Venum is a psycho! Damn it to hell!

He slightly stabbed Lili's legs and arms. You can see Lili's crying face in anger and suffering! She can't even surrender because she can't speak! If she can feel the pain like it's in real life, it would be even worse but the game only let the player feel at least 10% of the pain yet... it still would hurt if it's like this!

"Oh God! Just end it already! Someone help her!" Aika started to panic.

"We can't. She is still alive and conscious. She also hasn't surrendered yet." Damn you old geezer! You're no help! How can she surrender if she can't speak!

Lili's Hp is on its last drop...

Akko... She's trying to hold her tears... while holding her mouth away from screaming.

"..." Lili whispered something... but we didn't hear her. This time, her sufferings ended. I am not letting him get away with this and if he should die, I should be the one doing it!

"Shade... He deserves to die multiple times... SHADE'S WRATH! THIRD FORM" The whole city started to darken. Thick black clouds covered the whole area. The only light they will see is the light coming from my flames...

"What the hell is that?! It's a devil!" Aika panicked as soon as she saw me... The more I use my monster soul's power, the more I become the monster...

I jumped high at the center of the arena... The humiliation you've done to one of my friends is unforgivable... I will surely destroy your guild and kill all your members.

"Scy! Stop! You will kill all of us here!" Akko knows what I'm trying to do... even Elou shot me with sleeping arrows but didn't work.

"SERPENTES! FEEL THE HEAT OF THE INFERNO!" Even with the pain reduction, you will make you feel the taste of death! This is my payback for what you've done!

The only expression you can see on Venum is the face of a dead man...
