Chapter 136 The capital of demons 3 (1/2)
Mars slowly breathed out and opened his eyes, his mind was clear and he was ready to fight when the the old demon patted him on the shoulder and pointed to a pair of demons, both of them only had one horneach and explained
”that's Dax and his son”
”....got it”
Mars looked around at the other opponents and found most of them were looking at him with disdainful expressions, seeing this Mars' casual smile widened a little before he asked the old demon
”old demon this is a knockout tournament right?”
”yeah it is, if you lose then that's that”
”okay”
Mars' smile widened a little more as he waited for the first round to start, a few minutes later the entire arena quieted down just as Mars was about to ask what happened he noticed all the demons were looking in the same diction and also looked over
'....so that's how it is'
at the far side of the arena a elder demon was taking her seat, the seat looked more like a throne and Mars quickly figured she was the queen of all the demon's, once she sat down she looked over the contestants one by one, when her eyes reached Mars they lingered a little longer but other then that there was no reaction to seeing a outsider in Kel robes, once she had looked over all of them she cleared her throat and spoke in a unhurried tone
”....may the Kel tournament begin”
as she finished speaking 4 demons stepped out into the arena
'the Judges huh... hope they are fair'
the 4 Judges talked privately for a few moments before they each turned to one side of the arena and loudly called out
””””first match, Mars vs Ark””””
”it your turn son, go make me proud”
”of cause”
Mars rose and walked into the arena feeling almost all the eyes in the arena follow his every move with slight disdain made mars' smile widen a little more
'just watch me'
soon he reached the middle of the arena and stood face to face with a demon about the same height as him with only a few meters separating them, the demon's moth moved voicing out something
'you.... are... dead... meat? or something like that'
in response Mars only gave a casual smile as the 4 Judges turned and looked at the 2 contestants from all four sides
””””begin!””””
as soon as the judges announced the start of the match the demon named Ark moved he kicked off the ground and sent a fierce kick out after Mars' jaw, but Mars just swayed slightly and made the kick miss by a paper thin margin, with his agility stat it was almost too easy
”stand still!”
several kicks followed but none of them landed, suddenly Mars kicked off the ground and tackled the demon to the floor and quickly got him into a pin before he looked at the judges
””””one point to Mars!””””
Mars let go of the demon and got up from the floor, Ark was fuming with a bright red face, clearly he was angry about something, Mars walked back to his start position and turned to Ark with a calm face, meanwhile Ark was trembling with anger and humiliation
””””begin!””””
the next round began this time Mars decided to act first and activated [Instant movement] and arrived before Ark as he sent a kick to his jaw, Ark didn't even manage to react as he was sent flying and rolled on the floor a few times before he came to a stop, the arena turned silent nobody had expected that the outsider would manage to win his first fight, not even the judges that was slightly stunned it wasn't until Mars turned and looked at one of them they reacted
””””2 points to Mars, Mars wins!””””
Mars gave a cheeky grin and walked back to the old demon that was bustling with excitement, he was almost jumping up and down, Mars gave a smile and sat down in front of the old demon and soon felt his hand slapping him on the back
”well done son!”
”it was nothing too amazing, just wait until I face Dax's son”
the old demon cooled down and gave a slightly tense nod
”right...”
”well if he's the same level as the last one it will be no problem”
Mars wore a relaxed expression as he watched the next fight, this one fight lasted about 10 minutes before the winner was declared and the next one began, soon almost two hours had passed and all the contestants had fought once and soon it was his turn again, this time he stuck to pinning his opponent twice and easily won the match, as he raised his arms in victory the arena was silent, well almost silent
