A meeting

"I can't let this end now, can I~!" Azu's voice came and the destruction stopped and disappeared...

Scathach descended to the remains of the arena and looked at Heimdall who was blown away with his flying machine. He was doing his best to return, to the arena right now. 

Scathach waved her hand causing the wind to blow and helping Heimdall to reach faster, "Announce it," Scathach ordered and Heimdall straightened his back out of fear. 

"THE VICTOR OF THE 9TH ROUND OF RAGNOROCK IS SCATHACH!!!" Heimdall declared and Scathach walked out without delay. 

-------------------------

In a meeting chamber, all the participants of Mankind were present, except Regal. 

"So, what is this about? I dont think this is just about who gets to go in the possible last round," Jack asked as he sipped his tea. Hlökk the eleventh of the 13 Valkyrie sisters sat beside him.

"Nothing really~! The gods were having a meeting! So, It would only be right if Mankind had their meeting~!" Michel cheerfully answered making some of the participants a little annoyed. 

"We are just wasting our time..." Leonidas commented as he got up and walked towards Ruphas who was looking out the window. 

"What do you want now... to fight in the 10th round? Not happening." Ruphas stated without looking at Leonidas who stood right behind her. 

"Oh? Why not? Let's decide this now... I wanted to kill that Apollo but by the time I got the news about his fight he was already killed..." Leonidas stated his tone growling when he mentioned Apollo, he took a puff of his cigar. "The next round is last and I am fighting it..." he declared.

"Oh, this is getting heated now. I wonder, who would win~?" Michel spoke as he lay on the table. 

"There is no need for that... Ruphas would win without a doubt," Buddha helplessly said as he got between the two. 

"Huh? I a-" 

"Ruhas will win," Scathach sitting at the meeting table started making all the attention shift to her, "I didn't notice before but, you are just one step from your prime..." 

"Fufu, you noticed... I thought I hid it quite well, but looks like I am still lacking experience compared to you," Ruphas laughed as she looked at Scathach with a smile. "The day I saw the destruction you and Regal caused, I went all out in the dungeon, studied up all the monsters up close, and crossed some unique one." Ruphas ignored all and focused on Scathach. "I want a rematch," She stated with a grin and silence fell. 

"Hey... are you just going to ignore me..." Leonidas who was cut off and ignored said with gritted teeth as his facial nerves were showing with his hand balled into fists. 

Ruphas and Scathach looked at Leonidas and ignored him again making his face red from rage. Buddha stood in front of Leonidas immediately and tried to calm him down,

"Calm down man, you might be strong but those two are on different levels... They have their rule and for them, the strong have the word..." Buddha tried to explain but with each word he spoke his voice became lower, Buddha helplessly looked at Leonidas who was glaring at Ruphas "You aren't listening to my advice..."

"If the strong decide then, let's see... how strong she is..." Leonidas muttered and Buddha didn't stop him but left. 

'Just dont get killed...' Buddha prayed for Leonidas well-being and took his seat. 

Ruphas naturally knew what just happened and glared at Leonidas, "Stop being a pest..." Ruphas growled and a horrifying amount of pressure fell in the whole meeting room. And unlike before she unleashed her full might making the whole of Valhall tremble. 

Ruphas's wings extended to their fullest and every black feather gleamed. Leonidas was pushed down making his feet dig to the ground. "When he said 'the strong have the word' he meant it..." 

Clap! Clap!

"Ok, that's enough, I am stopping this here~!" Azu's cheerful voice came and she appeared behind Ruphas who suppressed her aura, "The participation of the gods has been decided and the match will begin in a bit~" 

"Who will be their fighter?" Ruphas curiouly asked completely ignoring the chaos she had caused. 

"Anubis, it will be a quick match," Azu casually said making Ruphas a little disappointed, "What you thought Odin would fight? He has his own plans and he won't be risking his life, they already know you are being sent and they dont underestimate you not even a little." She explained while glancing at Leonidas who had his legs underground with amusement. 

"So, Anubis is just a sacrifice... what a pity," Ruphas muttered and left for the match. 

"I will leave as well," Soji Okita stated and started to leave as well but then, 

"Go to the place I told you, he is still there," Azu advised, Sojo paused then nodded and left. "So, what now? This was supposed to be a meeting right? Well let's change it up a bit," Azu declared and the whole meeting room changed. 

All who were still present grew alert but nothing much happened except the world around them changed into an endless grassland, "Do you all want to have an advantage~!?"

----------------------

Regal sat in a dark room where everything seemed to be made out of flesh and blood. The walls, ceiling, and floor were made out of flesh that wriggled and blood that socked the whole place, and from time to time a terror-filled scream came that echoed in his room from the body that was in the center of the room. 

"Come on you are almost done..." Regal muttered as his eyes glowed with an eerie light. 

He closed his eyes and reopened them and met eyes with a monstrosity that towered over him. "You are getting closed... just a little more..." Regal muttered as he looked into the eye of the monstrosity.
