Chapitre 9: Fighting for spots
"Today you will all compete for a position in The Elder then introduced themselves
"I am Supreme Elder Haruko of the Heavenly Collison Sect" One woman walked up as she spoke
"I'm Elder Tianxue of the Heavenly Collision Sect" One man responded
"My name is Supreme Elder Kian of the Demonic razer sect" An elderly looking ma happily replied
"My name is Elder Jisa of the Demonic Razer sect" an old woman said calmly, the same one who had indicated her respect for Hajime earlier
"Supreme Elder Williams of the Mordrid sect" replied a middle-aged man
"Elder Yeetaf of the Mordid sect" said a young man
"Supreme Elder Lizabeth of the Midnight sect" replied the middle-aged woman who Hajime stood up for earlier
"Supreme Elder Hamati of the Royal Imperial Sect" replied a young man next to the woman.
"Elder Omway of the Royal Imperial sect"
"Elder Natsumi of the Midnight sect" said a young woman as she flew in. this woman has long Black hair with red highlights and Hazel-blue eyes, she had a body that in the best possible description could only be described as the perfect compromise, she had a curvy body but wasn't an hourglass shape, everything on her had just the right proportions to give her a curvy figure without making her body loos unnatural which made her relatively normal sized breast and behind look slightly bigger than they actually were, with perfectly smooth skin and a bright and genuine smile her features weren't too extravagant but she exuded an aura of almost unrivaled natural beauty as compared to many other women who looked far more beautiful but had augmented their body in some way and at the same time she radiated a vibe of power and intelligence that many in the room could not even comprehend
"Ana, you are late as usual" replied Lizabeth "Don't tell me you were late because you were picking out that beautiful outfit" she complimented genuinely
"you flatter me Liz but I was late because of a private matter that will be revealed later today after I find a certain person
That woman named Lizabeth had a beautiful yet mature face that radiated a vibe of nobility, She had medium length Platinum blonde hair that was parted tot eh right side of her head with the left side shaved down extremely short, she had an amazing body that could make many men and even some women have impure thoughts, it was partially for this reason that she was not shocked by Ace's reaction and beautiful green eyes as vibrant as the leaves on trees
"Now for the battles"
Supreme Elder Lizabeth revealed a slightly wicked smile and then spoke "I would just so love to see Hajime fight Ace"
A few moments later everyone was gathered at the training grounds and the fight was about to begin
"Now for the first round of fights, we're already starting off on a high note, remember to give it your all challengers, no holds barred," Gwen said with a smile.
Right off the start Ace summoned his rank two void type familiar, the Astral Hellspawn, A massive creature resembling a human with armor made of living shadows and a contorted body, even some of the elders shivered
"Give up now, you know you can't beat me"
Hajime said nothing, he simply looked at Ace, his expression unmoving, cold as if Ace was nothing in his eyes, He started to tap his feet, meanwhile he created a Daoism equilibrium circle in the air he then took out a simple dagger and imbued it with the divine energy of heaven and earth after which he placed formation traps along the floor, the elders were shocked with his casting speed, everything he did he did in less than a five seconds. tap tap tap
Ace disregarded the traps, he flew right through them and destroyed the Daoism circle, the circle shattered and light poured into it, it became filled with the mana from the destroyed formation traps and the shards took form, forming into beautiful and elegant daggers that floated around him and moved with his body, Hajime kicked out an upwards kick and the daggers followed the movement of his legs, like an extension of his own body, slicing into the familiar from before, tap tap tap
Just then Hajime felt a sharp pain as he was slammed into a wall by the Astral hellspawn, coughing out blood as he glared at Ace who had a smug look, o his face, the Elders were not shocked but the other students were, seeing this, the Elders all looked confused, they figured that this was the predicted outcome but now seeing the reaction, they weren't so sure, Hajime got up and clutched his side as he stared at Ace and held out his arm, a dagger pointed to Ace, taunting him tap tap tap
"Is that all, the power of the Astra Hellspawn amounts too? Pathetic, I expected that would at least damage six organs" he taunted, making al the elders assume that he was crazy. this made Ace furious so he charged at Hajime once more, this time, a smirk appeared at the corner of his lips.
The second the Astral Hellspawns blade was a single inch from Hajime's face, the latter suddenly disappeared "you aren't worthy" a voice called out, everyone turned their heads to see Hajime standing on a horizontal pole that held up the roof. balancing perfectly
"Then why are you running from my Hellspawn" Ace taunted
"I'm not, I'm running from my own spell" Hajime Shamelessly admitted as he nodded his head in the direction of the hellspawn and saw a massive Leviathan with pitch black scales and fiery red eyes and accents constricting the hellspawn as Carmilla casually walked up to it and chanted "Jyfti Hisabt" in that instant the massive creature turned to dust and Ace was met with Carmilla and the massive Leviathan behind him and Hajime in front of him, seeing no way through the familiar and demonic beast, he chose to charge at Hajime with his sword, the latter had Ace's sword less than a millimeter from his face when he suddenly caught it, blood trickled down the blade as it sliced into his palm and the blood started swirling, it hardened and shot straight up at Ace like spears entering his shoulder
"ARGGHHHH" he screamed out as he stumbled backward, now everyone knew what happened, Hajime planned the entire fight from the start, he purposely took damage from the familiar to lure it into a trap then used his familiar and a summoned Mythical rank demonic beast to corner the enemy and force him into a frontal assault one on one and bested him in single combat.
Suddenly Ace shot a whip out and grabbed Kajikari pulling her towards him as he held her hostage with his blade "Claim defeat or your girlfriend dies" he said calmly with a smirk, the eyes of every elder were filled with rage at his action and turned to Hajime, they felt a killing intent stronger than even those at the immortal realm had ever given them and shivered, then the blood that was on Ace sword started to dance as it shot into his eyes and ripped the sword from his hands, Hajime rushed up to Ace, one hand gripping his throat as he spoke
"you dare to use a hostage in our fight, no holds barred does not mean you should abandon all honor, you filthy dog, After all the suffering you caused me when I was a weak little child I was still kind to you, you who caused me to be sent to the mines where an injury took my arms, you who had me whipped, beaten and tortured, you who burned me, had the doctors skin the flesh off of my arms and rip my arms apart joint by joint before they gave me the new ones, stoned me, humiliated me and so much worse, I showed you mercy, I forgave you and you repay that kindness by threatening me with the life of my girlfriend?" Hajime placed his hand around Ace's arms and slowly closed it, the sound of bones being crushed in multiple places could be heard as ace screamed
The Elders were shocked after everything Ace had done to Hajime, he was still forgiven and shown nothing but kindness yet this was how Ace treated him, a truly ungrateful rat, all of the elders agreed that this boy should be tortured to the most painful extent
"NO! HOW DARE YOU! MY FATHER WILL HAVE YOUR HEAD!!" she was crying as he held his crushed arm
"your father? Do you think your father can protect you? do you forget who I am?" Hearing this the elders all looked to Hajime
"Since you still have to audacity to be so arrogant in the face your superior in both power and status, I shall show you the true extent of your worth" as he said this he pushed his mana into the body of Ace and used it to painlessly rip his vocal chords out of his throat, then with Ace still on his knees and Hajime's hand around his throat, He let his massive black wings with red highlights manifest as he floated up in to the air as he spoke "I AM PRINCE HAJIME VALENTINE, ADOPTED SON OF QUEEN ALISHA NIGHT AND KING HARIKI NIGHT, MASTER TO CARMILLA TO MOTHER OF MAGIC AND YOU DO NOT DESERVE MY RESPECT NOR KINDNESS" he shouted violently as he dropped Ace's body on the floor the height breaking both of his legs
The elders were all stunned and after the rest of the battles, a meeting was held, everyone as called forward and Elder Natsumi announced her news
"Supreme Elder Lizabeth you asked me why I was late, that is because of Queen Alisha and King Hariki, they called me to the throne room and announced" She then turned to Hajime "I'm sorry to inform you, my prince but The King and Queen have arranged a marriage between us, my parents kept it a secret and I have just found out.
Everyone was stunned and turned to Kajikari who simply shrugged "It's normal for a king to have multiple women, I suppose why not simply share?" she said with a smile directed at Natsumi, knowing fully well that if she agreed, it would be set in stone and the king and queen could not separate her from Hajime
"I agree to this, admittedly I was going to propose sharing if the prince already had love or that the woman he loved became his wife instead, however, The prince was not the stuck up, spoiled brat that I am accustomed to with Royalty and I would love to give it a shot.
Hajime looked back and forth between the two women
"I have harem... I hope this doesn't end horribly" he muttered under his breath
