Chapter 1282: Cap 1280: War Tournament Part 1

I was inside the Shadow Realm, this was not a real place, it was a space created to connect the shadows of an area, this space is created by Nix and cannot be seen by outsiders, I am waiting to find someone here.

"Master, wouldn't it be better to act early, in these few hours we've already managed to track down almost everyone." (Nix)

"No, I'm still not sure about yours, if it's some kind of attack on the Colosseum, many could die." (I)

"We need to make sure we catch everyone at once, that includes the Evil God." (I)

"We may be too late and we are not sure if the plan will work." (Nix)

"I believed the plans were very good, no one said anything when I spoke." (I)

"He thinks he's fooling us." (Orion)

"We can't blame him, Vallar was completely fooled." (Nix)

"..." (I)

Suddenly blood comes out of my neck forming a small Orion head talking to Nix who is next to me.

"I've been by your side for a long time, Master." (Nix)

"Of all your Family members, I'm the one who spends the most time with you next to Hinata, I know how you do things and I know how everything happens in anything involving you." (Nix)

"I was born mainly because of you and my connection to your blood makes me closer to you, that's why we were the first to notice." (Orion)

"That's why I'm asking you to just follow the plan." (Nix)

"The plan may not be perfect, but it will serve..." (Nix)

"I would really like my only concern to be this Evil God, but we have other things to take care of, I know what I'm doing, and I'm confident that I can do well this time even if I fail." (I)

"I will not allow something like the events on that Moon to happen again." (I)

"..." (Orion)

"Just don't put yourself in any danger." (Nix)

"I can't promise that the plan alone is already quite dangerous..." (I)

"..." (Nix)

"He arrived..." (I)

Nix looks in the same direction as me while Orion returns inside my body, within seconds Xagar approaches, his pale face shows the effort to remain in that place, it seems that we have less time than he expected for this conversation.

As soon as I entered I followed the flow of people that led straight to the middle of the Colosseum where the arenas were located, this time there were 20 of them and they were covered by white energy domes making it impossible to see inside.

I also noticed a floating stage a few meters above where a man who is clearly a Dragon in human form and a woman who appears to be an Ancient Elf were standing waiting dressed elegantly while talking to each other.

There were people guiding all the participants to an area of the stands lower than the rest where we all sat.

Looking around I saw that the audience seats were filling up quickly, there were many people, thousands of them, and there were also so-called private rooms where only a few people can stay, I was informed about this by Mr Zenos who said he was in one of these rooms.

Suddenly I felt a look on me, when I turned around I realized it was a familiar face, someone I've known for a long time and that's why I was surprised to see him here since his look full of murderous intentions doesn't surprise me.

I turn my face away knowing that he won't do anything in this situation, this gives me time to think, but it only lasted a few minutes before a powerful and at the same time gentle Aura spreads to every corner like an endless wave spreading throughout place disappearing along with the presence of the World before a voice sounded as if it were coming from someone next to me.

"Welcome everyone, my name is Raask." (Raask) n/--()(-.-(.-1.)n

"I'm Larany, the two of us will be responsible for this tournament." (Larany)

"Today we begin this great event and we salute you all for your presence!" (Raask/Larany)

As a result, several explosions occurred overhead with various elements forming spectacular paintings in the skies, it was a truly beautiful sight.

Soon after that came the applause that seemed capable of making everything in the surroundings shake.

The man who claims to be one of those responsible for this great event raises his hand with his Aura urging people to remain silent before starting to speak.

Most of what he said was useless, it was prayers to the Gods of War and those associated with combat.

After that he talked about the rules, they were basically the same rules as the preliminaries with some differences.

The first change is that there will be battles, but they will take place on random terrain, it seems that they have ways of shaping the arenas, I don't know exactly how they will do this, but it shouldn't be a bad thing.

Another change will be the time limit, each round of combat must last a maximum of 2 hours, and if the time ends without a winner, both participants will be considered defeated.

Other than that, there were almost no rules other than the ones I already knew, and killing was still allowed even if they asked to reduce the number of deaths, the ways to lose are almost the same with just a few additions, and also the part about how the selection of opponents.

Just like in the preliminaries, everyone will be transported to random arenas against random opponents, there was no way to prepare.

According to them, each participant would fight 3 times maximum today, this would be the same as 3 rounds of the tournament, they made it very clear that fatigue, injuries, or whatever the participants' problem may be would not serve as an excuse, while they are out of combat we will receive help to heal, but if we are still injured when we are called to the arena we must fight or give up the fight.

It was easy to see that the rules were made with the intention of being completely random, there are also many elements where participants like me must rely on luck to fall into the right conditions.

For me they are excellent rules, I can see that they are trying to recreate the moments of a real battle in a tournament.

Battles can happen anywhere, whether it's advantageous or leaving the person at a complete disadvantage, you can't always choose your opponents who can be so weak that it's easy to win or be so strong that the fight becomes laughable.

If you think about it, even the rules that allow death are to make the tournament as close as possible to real fights to the death.

"(Interesting rules...)" (I)
