34 The God of Steel (1/2)

The shadow was very similar to the hooded man Rainer saw in the dark space.

It was only a second, but Rainer was able to see how the shadow whispered something to Yren!

The scene seemed to have been taken from a horror movie.

It didn't take much to figure out that the shadow was encouraging Yren, whose emotions were in disarray, to accomplish his goals using whatever method.

The shadow vanished, but a dark aura remained around Yren.

”Yren didn't have that aura yesterday!

A pain in his eyes forced Rainer to close them, when he opened them again, everything returned to normal.

”My eyes...I feel strange...”

According to Liann, the Demon bloodline affected the demon's eyes. Since they were born, demons had a special vision.

...

When the time for combat came, Rainer entered into the arena.

On the stage, there were only two of the five who were classified, Rainer looked at Yren in astonishment.

”He also sent assassins to the other competitors?”

Rainer didn't care about the others, for him there were only himself and Alisha, but that doesn't mean he would tolerate such acts for no reason.

To confirm his intuition, the judge made an announcement.

”Due to an epidemic among the other contestants, this fight will be a 1 vs 1! Don't worry, the other contestants are only exhausted!”

Said the judge in charge of the final round.

”Wow, it looks like all will be decided between Yren and Rainer...”

”A duelling between brothers, I guess they'll try their best not to injure themselves...”

”Are you an idiot? Didn't you see how Rainer slapped Yren the other day?It is clear that these two are like water and oil!”

Viewers began to whisper their own conclusions about the recent change in the tournament schedule.

...

”Rainer, I don't know how you remain conscious after being poisoned, but don't expect to leave this arena alive...”

Yren relied on the powerful poison he worked so hard to get.

”Plans don't always go as one wishes, Yren. I'm going to prove it here and now!

After Rainer's shout, the judge began the final fight.

...

Clang...Clang...Clang!

The sound of hammering could be heard deep in the mountain, the summit was surrounded by clouds that made it impossible to appreciate the landscape.

Lights of different colors swirled around the summit until they landed in a cave located deep in the mountain.

The cave was illuminated by the light of a forge, the sparks of the hammer impacts made it possible to see a man covered with a metallic shine.

This man was made from steel!

”Huuh, another failure...”

After looking at the result, the man sighed after throwing the piece of metal into a pile of trash.
