Cherreads

Chapter 39 - colleseum fight

It was a cold night the crowd cheered, as lights flashed upon the arena,the Roars of the crowd reaching up to the heavens,the announcer spoke,while floating on solid stone,"On my left we have the beast made man ,his deeds so evil, it sends terror down the bravest of soldiers,the beast Tamer who fed hundreds of children to his beasts,give your hatred up forrrrrrrrr,Skrull, the huntterrr!!".

The crowds cheers turned to distain and insults ,"Die!,Die!,Die!"," you savaggge!!","burn in hell ","kill yourself," you aint making it ","someone please kill him",The announcer Continued,"and on my right,we have the defient,single handedly killing his own platoon of knights in our battle against the northern countries, injuring many innocents,but theirs a twist some say he was possessed, handing himself in after the deed ,Will the gods grant him redemption through combat only time will tell,and his, name isssss,Sir Ivan!".

The crowds tone changed,"wait,he was a knight ","What happened ","Traitooor they both deserve death","He supported the north burn him alive".

The hunter on the left wore fur clothing,arm and leg wraps with bones of animals and their teeth as jewelry,his waist area covered with bandages,he was a tall imposing,muscular figure with slightly tanned skin and tattoos on his back and arms, having messy black long hair, stubs on his upper lip,blue eyes and a black beared,his aura was nothing but fearsome.On the right ,was a shorter blonde haired man with blue eyes ,having a short sword,wearing a padded gambeson,Gaunlets,sabatons, greaves and pauldrons.

"Begin!!!"

The moment the announcer said this the knight charged forward,jumping up many metres in the air delivering a downward slash,a shockwave occuring seconds after,dust and wind scattering about,the knights Blade was caught by the hunter using both hands,his hands glowing with mana,the knight smirked his blade heating up as If thrown into a furness,the hunters eyes opened wide,a beam of concentrated flames blasting out from the blades tip,in a split second the hunter simultaneously kicked the knight in the abdomen the force pushing him metres away while placing both hands infront of his face and reciteing,"earthly iron skin defense",faster than the beam could reach his face.

The heat alone cratering the ground and pushing him back,despite recieving an attack the knight smiled a green healing light spawning from his left hand,this was his skill so he had no need to think of a word before activation,On the other hand although the hunter survived he had burn marks on his face and arms the radiation reaching his body before the beam did.

"Interesting",the hunter said,"Forest gods renewal" ,once these words were said a green light spawned healing the wounds," a knight of such honor turned to a murderer,I'm curious are the stories true,If so you should be ashamed,",the knight scoffed ," look whos talking ,for a creature like you,your words hold no merit ".The knight lunged saying "blessing of the air spirit ",an ability that completely removed drag while moving through the air,and essentially making one move swiftly.

In moments the distance shortened to a few centimeters,before Skrull,The knight continuing the prior conversation,"and yes ,I did it ,and enjoyed it","Is that so",the hunter spoke casually, catching the blade," Have you not learnt your lesson!? ",the knight yelled in excitement,"oh,I have,that your slow",the hunter removing one hand from the blade ,pulling the knight closer with the hand still on,the blade releasing a flurry of jabs at the knight with his right hand each causing shockwaves,the knights mana drastically increased dodging the first three punches to his face,recieving a punch to the gut then a knee to the jaw,finally pulling his sword back ,jumping on top of the final punch using it as a platform to backflip,groaning in pain.

"So are you finally gonna get serious " the hunter said smirking,"By attacking me constantly,my mind was too distracted to focus on the fire spell,smart", the knight said under his breath,a healing glow eminating out his body ,the announcer hyping the fight up," this ability seems to be this knights skill,but revealing it so early while skrull has not reciprocated,such a thing is normally a sign of death".

Standing up holding his gut,taking his sword holding it horizontally high and then twisting it sideways a Chanel of wind incircled it," iron bladed long spear",the blade elongated with intense speed,"so fast" the hunter said the blade piercing through ,the hunters arm hitting his chest missing his heart by a few inches,the second shockwave pushing his body further away.

"Oh my gosh the tables have turned the difference in experience has really shown",said the announcer,the knight laughed," such a powerful healing spell takes enormous mana even if the injury you sustained is not great it simply overcompensates,so I estimate you can only use it two more times"," your correct", the hunter replied ,"but what makes you think you will last that long".Taking his right hand the hunter made a grabbing motion towards the air ,placing the knight on gaurd then smirking ,muttering," Forest gods renewal ", the healing effect was near instantaneous,he laughed," lets have a bit of fun",jumping high in the sky, his hair spiking up,a strong magical aura firing up,clasping both hands slamming it towards the ground,producing shockwaves that pushed the knight despite dodging the initial attack.

Then he summoned a double sided axe,from his Tattoos, swinging it with enough force to create powerful air slashes,the knight replied in kind running away dodging and rolling while the beast of a man jumped launching attack after attack,the rocks flying as projectiles ,the knight regaining his ground cutting them up ,then using the flat side of his blade shooting them back,his mana flowing into them the moment they make contact with the blade,the force capable of creating creators,the crowd gasped and Roared with excitement,again the hunter jumped up into the air this time putting more power into it,most of the arena turning into a crater,the knights speed allowed him to use the larger projectiles as a foot hold jumping up,muttering then lunging his blade forward its length extending but this time the hunter dodged,"cant fool me twice",corking back his his fists ,"air canon fist",a shockwave of air directed itself at the Ivan who countered," slashing air ",reducing the force but still sent flying.

Vomiting blood he rolled and stood back up on his knees everything shaking,he was deeply disorientated,looking up skrull came flying at his direction his desire to survive caused him to pull out his sword,this time skrull used two daggers,interms of skill with the blade the knights skill was much higher, but not by much, allowing him to give the hunter a few scratches and cuts, while simultaneously parrying each and every single attack, but just as he gained confidence he felt a kick to his stomach the force causing him to spew blood.

"Your no more fun" ,the hunter said gleafully while pointing one dagger,as they slowly disappeared then a colony of black red eyed black bats materialized, out the ground and from the air forming a Tornado obscuring the knights line of sight and even attacking him.

" oh finally the announcer said his using his skill."

Within the Tornado the Hunter manifested a bow and arrow from his Tattoos,aiming for the knight ,the gleam of the arrow was seen by the knight but it was too late, he fired a shot so powerful it ripped off the knights right arm,then another targeting his leg and shooting it off, at this point the knight was in despair screaming,using his one leg pushing himself back,the hunter aimed finally gaining his target,"I dont miss",an arrow moved at massive speed piercing threw the knights heart an instant fatality.

The crowd was in shock,before cheering the bats retreating until completely vanishing from sight then the bow and arrows, at the centre skrull stood bow and arrow in hand one cut on the cheek and another above his waist,the crowd shared a moment of silence before fully processing what had just occured,they cheered,continously, The announcer controled his shock,"the Winner of Todays match is ,"Sskruuulll!!!!".

In the morning students went up and down as everybody talked about yesterdays colleseum match with glea," I couldn't believe my eyes when the knight lost"," boys are so immature,getting all excited for two murderers fighting each other",said Amy,most students wore a combination of Blazers,a white shirt and a tie ,some adding pointed hats,or instead of a blazer a vest ,girls skirts,boys pants,but what was common was black shoes.

Some students flew in hallways,some using other transportation methods like riding bubbles of air , others straight up phased threw walls,or used teleportation as long as no other person was harmed, and no fighting occured within the halls everything goes.
