Battle Royale {I}–{The Wrong Way To Use Healing Magic}

The Arena was filled with the cheers and screams of the wild spectators. The MC, Mr Johnson, not caring for his looks was commenting with saliva flying out of his mouth in every direction, it would have been a disgusting sight to see, but everyones attention was drawn to the ongoing battle.

"Oh My Gosh!!! He just sent than human flying with a random swing of his hammer."

"WHAT THE HELL!!! How can someone have so much strength in their head!!!"

"What's that blurr, is it some type of ability? No!!! No!! No! It's an Ustapian showing us the supreme speed of their race."

"Take a look at that Asura and Orc, they're going at it in a one on one duel. But it seems lik... Oh nooo, a Cyclops interrupted!!!"

The MC couldn't comment all the hundreds of battles going on at once, but his words were still riling up the spectators.

There were large screens hovering above the Arena, showing the most interesting battles happening and switching from time to time when the battle ended.

Meanwhile

"This...this is madness, there's no order in this, just raw unadulterated chaos." Jayden said as he evaded a swing of a large shield and a ball of flames. "But why? Why are this bastards ganging up on me, there are even stray attacks reaching me from other fights, I'm just an innocent young boy goddamnit." Jayden said with teary eyes while being surrounded by three Orcs that were in some sort of temporary alliance.

When the MC had declared to fight the begin, no one had moved at first thinking that it was a joke, but then, it dawned on all of them, A Battle Royale.

No sooner had that thought settled in their minds when an Ustapian had used its speed to kill a Zanarian within seconds, and then all hell was let loose and the rest was history....

And that was how Jayden ended up in the situation.

__________

"Fuck Meee!!" Jayden cursed as he deflected a strike from a large Great Sword.

Jayden retaliated and swung his sword with as much power as needed, aiming to incapacitate the Orc. His aim was precise, deadly and flawless, this swordsmanship skill had been achieved from constant practice in the Void Space and with one of the Dark Dusk teachers who was a talented swords man.

Jayden felt relieved seeing that his attack was about to meet its target, he looked up to see the Orcs ugly face contort in fear, but what he saw was still that savage smile that never left their battle filled faces.

Jayden knew what was about to happen, he had faced this problem a lot of times now, and it was beginning to piss him off.

A large shield, five meters tall, bashed the sword to the side, throwing it off its course and making him loose his target.

Jayden used the momentum of the bash, spun and twisted the sword in a weird way, the sword phased out of view and then found its mark on the body of the Orc that was planning on ambushing him from behind while the other two distracted him from the front.

The sword pierced the thick skin of the Orc with some difficulty, but it eventually broke under the mighty pressure hidden behind Jayden small form.

Jayden frowned at this, this Orc was the one actually giving him the most problem, Jayden had barely jumped back a few steps when the Orcs injury glowed with a calm amd soothing energy, before restoring back to its previous form as if the injury was never inflicted.

"BASTARD!!! THAT'S THE WRONG WAY TO USE HEALING MAGIC!!! You're meant to use it on others, not on yourself you GREEDY PIECE OF SHIIIT!!!

But lo and behold, the Orc didn't give a Fuck!!! It swung its large mace with a sadistic smile plastered on its ugly face. Jayden jumped, and using the mace as a platform, he ended up behind the healer Orc.

The shielder, and the sword wielding Orc charged at Jayden from two sides, aiming to flank him while the healer Orc followed up with another attack at Jayden.

Jayden didn't plan on fleeing, he wasn't a coward, and besides, there was nowhere to hide and more important, he had a serious beef with the trio which needed to be settled, right there, right now.

Jayden's mind rattled, the cogs in his head spinning and providing him with ideas and battle plans. Jayden not having the time to settle on one, dashed at the Orc with the mace.

Jayden slipped under the Orc easily, while cutting at its thighs with the sharp Radianium Sword. He bounced back up with the spider limbs acting as springs, he propelled himself above the Orc and swung his sword down with all his strengh, while reinforcing his arms with energy.

A large shockwave went out and smacked the faces of unfortunate nearby fighters, giving their opponents the chance to finish them off.

Jayden not caring, focused on the point of impact, and too his surprise a helmet which he hadn't seen before was galantly resting on the Orcs bald head.

The other two Orcs were running towards Jayden with their weapons raised, Jayden pushed further, hoping to break the helmet and get to the head.

A tiny crack appeared on the helmet and soon reached the Orcs head, Jayden smiled, the healer Orc smiled too, though Jayden didn't see it.

Jayden saw blood being spilt from the wound and the sword reaching deeper and deeper into the wound. Jayden smile soon vanished as a wave of green energy surged from the skull and splashed on his face, it reached Jayden's face as if trying to caress him with love, but Jayden wasn't in the mood to enjoy the feeling.

Jayden felt the crack in the skull being healed rapidly, the tissues mending, the bones attaching back, and the flesh sealing shut and then...

....the helmet regaining it's shape and luster.

Jayden felt his works being turned into vain, and with a mad roar, he pushed further hoping to cause some damage again before retreating.

Jayden channeled more energy into the sword, the swords purple glow turner darker, and with a final push, something unexpected happened.

[New Technique Created]

[Anti-Healing Strike]

Before Jayden could fully register what he just heard, the head of the Orc went on a reversal, the helmet broke, the flesh tore and the skull cracked with a fountain of blood gushing out, but that wasn't all, the sword continued down and down, until he split the Orc into two unequal halves.
