"THE SIGNS DO NOT LIE

THE TRUTH WILL NOT DIE

AS TIME WILL GO BY

WE WILL SAY OUR GOODBYES

FOR THE TRUE PRIEST TO BE BORN

THE FALSE GODS WILL ALL DIE"

Orie heard these words just before he woke up. He looked around in confusion, trying to figure out where he was. The last thing he could remember was that he was surrounded by dust in the arena.

He looked at the nurse who seemed surprised for a reason and asked "how long have I been here?"

"F... Four days" the nurse answered nervously and Orie remain silent

"We thought you were dead" she added

"Who won?" Orie asked

"What?" The nurse replied, still shaken up

"My fight" Orie rephrased

"Who won?"

"Well..." The nurse replied

"The other guy was disqualified so..."

"... I guess you won"

"Oh" Orie said as he tried to get off from the bed but the but the nurse immediately moved to stop him.

"You just woke up sir" she said

"We can't let you walk around till we know for sure that you're okay"

"I'm okay" Orie replied as he got down from the bed but the nurse immediately got in front of him saying "no no no no no no, you need to rest" but he immediately replied "I can't"

"There's somewhere I need to be" he said as gently brushed her aside and walked out.

"Ellie porter here"

"Many of you might not know why the stadium is so full today"

"Well it's because two of the tournaments most promising fighters are having a clash today"

"The turn out for this fight is almost as good the finals of last year"

"Many people keep saying that it would have been nice if this fight happened in the finals"

"Anyways let me introduce you to today's fighters"

"The first is Kaen Amano"

"He's not a new face so we already know much about him"

"The one everybody is curious about is the person that the son of fire is facing off against"

"Though she's a daughter of the prestigious house of Fubuki, she still keeps a low profile"

"The homeroom teacher for first year Non-royal class"

"Everyone's favorite biology teacher"

"Natsumi Fubuki"

*whisper*"ps, she is also Orie's girlfriend (I miss him already)"

"Alright, let's watch"

"It's about to start"

There is a kind of silence that fills a place when something serious is about to happen. It's not that no sound is made but that most of the sounds being made are not perceived due to a high level of focus. Such silence was the one occurring at the moment.

As soon as the starting buzzer broke the silence, Kaen immediately charged up a fireball and shot it at Natsumi but she quickly brought up a wall of ice to block it. The wall of ice fell but it succeeded in blocking the attack.

The son of fire didn't waste time in launching another attack. This time, from over five different directions. Balls of red hot flames hovered around him and he shot them at an incredible speed. He had good control as he could cause the flames to move in ways that were difficult to predict.

Natsumi was blocking every shot that came at her. She was quick to react to her opponent's attacks and all the patterns he used but it was still a prevalent observation that she was being overpowered.

Every defense she set up was brought down in one shot and every of her attacks melted before they could reach her opponent. It was apparent that the stage was too hot for her.

"Ellie porter here"

"Some of you may have noticed it by now but the ice lady isn't using as much power as she did in the previous matches"

"I don't exactly know why but I'm suspecting it is lack of motivation"

" She is fighting like she no longer has the will to do so"

Natsumi took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. Suddenly everything around her began to freeze, the flames that where coming at her died out and soon, everyone in the stadium could feel the chill.

Kaen summoned more flame and increased their heat then he shot them at Natsumi. All the flames were blocked out but none of the ice walls fell.

Natsumi then moved to attack. She raised her hand in the air and many long spears of ice formed above her but as she was about to send them at her opponent, she heard a laugh.

It was a laugh that only her could hear. She was afraid of it. At the moment she heard it, she was paralyzed with fear and every attack and defence she had prepared broke down, leaving space for one of kaen's attacks to hit her behind her head.

The hit sent her flat on the ground and for a while, she couldn't get up. She didn't want to move, she was afraid of what would happen if she did.

"Come on" the voice in her head spoke but she answered with a loud "NO!!"

Kaen heard her and noticed that something was wrong. He slowly drew closer to her and asked "are you okay?" But as soon as she turned to look at him his whole body was struck with fear.

"What was that?" He said to himself as he quickly backed away from her. He didn't know what it was but he knew that it was not something he wanted to face. Luckily, just before things got too awkward, Orie ran into the stadium screaming "I AM HERE!!"

"DON'T BE AFRAID!!"

"YOU WILL NOT LOSE"

After Orie said those words, the voice went silent and Natsumi picked herself up from the floor. They didn't known what exactly occurred but they were glad that the match was going to continue and they cheered with all their might.

On the other hand, Kaen knew that if he wanted to win the match, he would have to do things he had never done before.

  • When the ice queen laughs

    "well, Mr Addison" Ellie said as the camera faced Orie. "What are your thoughts on the current state of the match?" "I'm really not sure" Orie replied "To be honest, this is the first time I've seen Her like that so I don't actually know what to expect" "But if I had to take a guess..." "... I'd say I'm glad she wasn't like this in our match" Natsumi missed her first strike, and her second, and her third, and her fourth, and... all her strikes, she missed all of it. As it turns out, Kurobe had quite the reflex and was really good at evasion and keeping the distance. Every time Natsumi got close, he quickly evaded and put distance between them, pushing her back, attacking from blind spots, setting walls between them and a Whole lot of moves that prevented him from getting hit but that didn't stop his opponent from trying. With each passing second, Natsumi got closer to landing a hit on Kurobe. At first it was him feeling the little breeze as her fist fle

  • Cold hard truth

    Many things can anger a fighter. An opponent that toys with them, someone that just won't stay down and in many cases, a direct insult. But none of those things were happening to Kurobe, he was facing something far more annoying; an opponent that isn't paying attention to him. At first glance, it looked like Kurobe was dominating the match without giving his opponent any chance to counter, but there were many times since the beginning of the fight where Natsumi would have been able to strike back but did nothing instead. She had barely moved from where she was standing at the start and she was in deep thought. All Natsumi did from the beginning of the match was to fend off the incoming attacks while thinking about what Orie had said to her. "I have finally seen your true self" "I finally know you" She couldn't muster up the courage to ask him what he meant because she was too afraid of his answer. She was afraid of the truth. "If the real me is a monster...

  • The veil of confidence

    "Ellie porter here" "I'm in the stadium with our favorite finalist and we're here to watch the tussle for third place" "The crowd density in the stadium today would make you wonder how it would be in the final" "The place is packed!" "The first fighter we see coming on the arena is a favorite of many" "A one time champion who claimed his only title by beating all the heavyweights in the early matches and since then he has never not made it to the semifinals" "He is a force to be reckoned with" "Anyone that saw his previous fights would know that he is an opponent that even the champions do not take lightly" "I introduce to you" "Someone most of you already know" "The head of the department of geography" "The man who almost won against Fuji Waramaki" "ISHIGAMI KUROBE" "The second person coming up to the arena" "We love her for her beauty, we love her for her strength and we love her because she loves the one we want to win"

  • Tears of a beautiful summer

    Orie was finally on the offensive. His wind blasts weren't doing much damage but they were strong enough to throw his opponent off balance and disorganize her attacks. He was able to close the distance bit by bit with each successful blast and every one of them hit. Before Natsumi could tell what was going on, Orie was standing directly under her. "White" orie said with a smile as he looked at her from below, then he spun his staff and struck the floor with it. Natsumi immediately turned to guard against it but no wind came from Orie's direction, it came from above and pushed her down. As Natsumi struggled to stand up, Orie began walking towards her and spoke. "I wondered why my prayers weren't working on you" "It would stop you for a brief moment then she'd take care of the rest by will power" "After this encounter, I think I finally figured it out" "The reason why my prayers don't work and who you are" "You are Natsumi" "You are not a spirit tha

    "Power" "The powers that exist this world baffle even those that wield them" "Their might, the mechanism behind their use and their origin" "The world seeks answers to these mysteries but cannot find it because it tries to be logical about it" "Logic can never understand miracles" "Some call it a mutation" "Some call it evolution" "But the only ones that are right are those who think it's a blessing" "A blessing from a being beyond our meager existence" "A blessing from a god" "The law of name suggests that this blessing is not bestowed at random but follows a certain pattern" "It could be by direct meaning" "It could be by a story of the forgotten past" "It could even be through a silly wordplay but your name will affect a great aspect of your life and your power and no one gets to chose which aspect is affected."

  • The air around him

    "I was wondering why you didn't come to see me all this time" Orie said to Natsumi but got no reply. "You're usually the first to talk, you know" "Now you have me in an awkward position" "I already know what you want so I'm not going to ask" "But you have to tell me one thing" "HOW BADLY DO YOU WANT IT?" Edwin Law, official and only referee of the tournament. He had been officiating for the past two years but his name became well known after he declared Orie winner over Chris. He was rumored to be one of those who had "god eyes" but that match confirmed to the public that it was true. Eyes that see through deception, eyes that see what is true, eyes that nothing can escape, The eyes of the law. With his eyes he was able to see and perfectly replay past events in order to make sound judgement. Edwin's eyes allowed him to analyze all the previous matches he had officiated but even after replaying them over and over yet, he had no confidence in any possible outc
