152 Dark Moon Kingdom First Official Tournament! 5/5 (1/2)
-----
In the middle of the battlefield, two large behemoths stood on each side.
One was a Giant Fiery Oni variant, blessed by multiple gods, he had a scarlet red skin and massive bulging muscles, he resembled a blazing tower as his breath released fire everywhere. His eyes were pure white, and his horns shined on a crystalline fashion as if they were made out of Rubies.
He held the prestigious [Legendary] Relic forged by a Divine Existence; [Earth Splitting Flaming Tempest Axe], which has recently evolved to adjust to its user new powers.
The other was a Giant Medusa variant, blessed by numerous gods, she had an outstanding and beautiful figure, with pale purple skin and bright purple eyes, resembling gemstones of the highest quality. Her hair and snake tail were also of this color, showing off her amazing venomous capabilities, represented by the purple color. Her figure was charming and enchanting, and no simple man could ever take their gaze out of such beauty.
This maiden held the prestigious [Legendary] Relic forged by a Divine Existence; [Gorgon's Heaven Splitting Axe], which has also enhanced its power due to its wielder recent evolution.
According to the Realm Menace of Lust Kireina, their Master and owner. Both of them shall fight to show off their strength. Although a conventional and sane person would consider fighting an ally a stupid thing to do, Demi-humans and monsters are different. Constantly wanting to prove their strength, they would fight endlessly, even against their comrades on an endless fight for who is the strongest or most superior of the territory.
The two Giant's blood boiled in excitement as their fight was finally unfolded. Releasing impressive and outstanding auras filled with bloodthirst and excitement, the two behemoths clashed their giant axes on a sound so strong that it quickly created immense shockwaves, destroying all their surroundings.
The clashing of two [Legendary] Relics usually comes accompanied by the strength of the gods who forged them, which naturally counter react to each other. The power of the Poison Mist Goddess and the Sun Goddess clashed against each other as if these two Divine Existences were fighting by themselves.
Their apostles, the two Giants, were completely unaware of such thing, as they fought only for their own amusement and excitement, completely ignoring that there was such a hidden meaning on their clashing.
Those who hold the [Legendary] Relics are those who hold the strength of a god, represent a god, and fight for a god. And possibly, are destined to be one.
However, not everyone's destiny is a straight line, they entangle each other, fight each other for who will fulfill it first. And those who fail will die miserably.
The Fiery Oni known as Truhan by his relatives and Master, enhanced his body beyond capabilities, doubling his size and muscle mass while releasing an intoxicating Fire Domain that engulfed everything on its territory. His amazing power and overwhelming strength had almost no equals, however, its opponent did have ways to countermeasure his powers.
The Giant Medusa named Nesiphae by her mother responded to the Fiery Oni's engulfing flames with her own Domain. However, this domain could be seen as a completely different thing, resembling an everlasting purple mist that expanded endlessly everywhere. The poisonous mist was not inflammable and was even able to slow down the power of the flames that the Scarlet Oni released.
As Truhan noticed the power of such Mist, which was comparable or stronger than his Domain, he quickly used his new strength to pounce over Nesiphae with all his strength, raising his Axe, he activated a myriad of Techniques, which he learned from various fighters.
The combination of techniques was so massive that it compares its power to an Ultimate Art, something that only those Humans who have awakened their Epic can achieve, however, he as a Demi-Human, achieved such feat. Or at least, something comparably strong.
The countless attacks were released as such speed that they created thousands of mirages of the Fiery Oni's Axe, falling like blazing meteors, each blow was as heavy as a mountain.
However, the one he was fighting was no simple enemy, but someone comparable to him or even stronger. Nesiphae quickly adapted to the barrage of attacks skillfully, using her experience and just her overwhelming strength, paired with her giant Axe, she slashed back at Truhan's rampage using her own techniques.
Although not as strong as him, Nesiphae combined them with multiple types of magic and status effects, her attacks resembled falling purple flames that spread chaos and demise to those who touched. A simple human would instantly die and rot into a poodle of flesh and bones if he ever touched such a powerful mist.
Truhan quickly noticed as his status began to decrease and his strength faltered, his muscles became stiff and slow, and he was not able to continue his barrage on this state, slowly being overwhelmed by Nesiphae's onslaught of techniques.
Seeing that if things keep going as it is, he would surely lose, Truhan was engulfed on a blazing rage, that filled his muscles and entire body on incredible flames, purifying his body from the corrosive mist in a split second.
Using his giant arms, he quickly grabbed Nesiphae's left arm as he tried to break it with his sheer strength. To this, the Giant Medusa responded with a massive punch on Truhan's face, that left his face full of blood. The amazing strength of her punch came accompanied by more mist, that quickly infiltered the Oni's eyes, blinding him for a moment.
Using this unexpected opportunity, Nesiphae raised her Axe as she enhanced her body capabilities beyond her limits for a small amount of time, and moving her strength towards her arms, she slapped Truhan's with her giant axe as if it were a hand, throwing the Fiery Oni several meters away.
For the first time since this tournament started, the Fiery Oni was seen being thrown away, something that most spectators would never have thought possible before. His body was enveloped in flames as he tried to take out the mist on his eyes, ultimately crashing towards the giant bedrock, creating a thirty meters deep hole, which began to melt into a flood of lava due to the high temperatures of the Oni.
Nesiphae knew that this wasn't the end, as she braced herself and spread her [Magic Snakes] through the battlefield and enhanced her body once again, temporarily obtaining increased stats. With her new strength, she manipulated her Poisonous Mist Domain and jumped over Truhan's, who was still recovering from her previous attack.
