Chapter 57 - He Still Has Cards Up His Sleeves!

"hohoho...aren't those skeletons cute"

Kannada who was standing on one side of the arena with the clown mask said, looking at the skeletons that Shiva summoned as soon as the referee announced the start of the match,

"Well they are more cruel than cute, do you want to see??", Shiva said as the man in front of him wait!...was he a man in the first place...anyway, he was quite annoying.

"Hoohoho, No thanks! I have no Intention to feed myself to these bone heads"

"Well...To bad that they don't listen to you", Shiva smirked as he urged the skeletons to attack him and he himself went after Kannada with the scythe,

" Mind read ", Kannada who was busy running around the arena while escaping from the skeletons, used the skill he used against Cale to try if the trick would work again,

A set of hazy memories were now on display in front of him,

A young boy holding a bloodied knife as the dead body of a middle-aged man was laying on the ground, The boy seemed to be crying as he couldn't clearly see his facial expression,

"hohoho...Boy, aren't you too cruel to kill your own father??"

Shiva who was chasing after him stopped in his tracks as he lowered his head,

'Bullseye!", Kannada rejoiced to see him suddenly stop in his tracks,

"How can you kill the one who fed you and loved you so much!?", He tried to influence his mind as he neared where Shiva stood,

Kannada was slowly getting a hold of the situation as he slowly approached shiva,

"What have you done to that poor soul? sob...sob...You are monsters! A monster!"

He was saying random things to lower his mental defense, while closely repeating the same thing in Shiva's ears,

"Hypnosi....", and finally when he felt that it was time to control him, he tried to use his skill and end the match.

"!!"

But suddenly a hand caught him by the throat and lifted him up in the air,

the shock was visible all over his face as he tried his best to break free from the grasp but failed miserably,

"H..o.w....?!", He asked in a limping voice while trying to break free from Shiva's grasp!

"kukeeke...You lowly scum, you think that cheap tricks like that would work on me?"

Shiva said as he bashed him to the ground with powerful force,

"Keok..!"

"if you think I will fall for those cheap tricks then forget about leaving alive out of the arena!", Shiva was now trying to end his life by digging a hole right through his mask, but the psychic in front of him seemed to be a wise man as he sensed his bloodlust and quickly said,

"I!...I...give...Up", Kannada managed to say before the maniac could kill him,

The referee interfered in the fight, separating Shiva from Kannada as he announced the result,

"Match Over, Winner Shiva"

"Tch!", Even though he won something felt itching his back for Shiva as he walked off the arena.

****

"That's scary! The necromance has made his way into the semi-finals while completely crushing the Clown"

The cheer from the crowd seemed to be mediocre, It seemed that the words of Kannada had impacted the image of Shiva in the audience's mind in a negative way,

"Well.... let's start the next match", The commentator who got uncomfortable at the silence of the crowd tried to lift things up by announcing the next match,

"The next match we have our handsome devil, William against the Ice-Princess, Mira"

Mira and William entered the arena,

but O boy! loud cheer ensured throughout the arena as various chants like "go..!go...!William!!"

"Marry me William" "He is so Handsome" were heard.

The people seemed like they forgot the last match and altogether has forgotten the existence of Shiva, truly unfair...

*****

"Match, William v/s Mira begin", The Referee announced the start of the match,

Mira was cautious of William, Unlike her, he was a summoner who could call his summons to help him in the battle,

She knew that she didn't have much chance to win If he summoned his pets which he used in the last matches like the rhino or the wolf.

but she didn't have any thought of letting him summon any of his summonses, She had already thought of a plan to defeat him, so as soon as the referee announced the match, she casted her most powerful skill,

[Ice-Castle]

Unlike the pillars which rose to cover Karna and her previously, This time she cast the skill completely which covered both her and William a whole, a majestic castle just with small size rose around them, the outside wasn't able to see what was going on due to that,

'What's happening in there?'

'How are we supposed to watch like this'

of course not everyone was like that, some people were watching through the ice with their skill.

.

.

.

after a minute the castle collapsed as the audience could now see William walking out of the arena, while Mira was unconscious on the ground, and some burn marks were visible here and there.

"Match over. winner William"

The referee announced as the final winner was decided,

****

"What the hell happened! the summoner walks out victorious without even using any of his summonses? What is the extent of his powers? He defeated the raising rookie in just 1 minute"

"What are those burn marks, does William has fire-magic spells??"

"The Banished Devil Still has cards up his sleeves??"

The referee tried to speculate the possible scenarios but gave up soon as the next match was starting soon.

"As the match's intensity increases, we have with us the last match before the semi-finals"

"The last match between the Machine man and the archer-assassin is going to start now"

"Tony v/s Rebecca"
