Chapter 128 : Arnett's scythe
Ingrid looked at Asuna and nodded at her, wanting her to fight alongside her again, wanting her to know that they will not cower or back down and will fight to the bitter end.
With that, Asuna leaped up and began pushing forward with her attacks again, even overwhelming the Kendo duo to the point where they were knocked down to the ground.
The Kendo duo's comrades and king were watching on, this time worrying and thinking that Katase and Murayama might not actually survive this and lose their match, meaning that they will not be able to bring back Elsha.
Slowly, Ingrid and Asuna slowly moved forward to the duo, though slightly limping, gripping their swords tightly and ready to deal the final blow to end and win the match.
Time even began to slow down for Katase and Murayama, thinking that death would be inevitable, that surrender might be too late for them and for Issei to rescue them.
Fortunately, time was at their side, as the battle was at its end. Odin's clapping ringing in their ears forced the 2 valkyrs to stand down and watch their opponents getting their breath back.
Issei and Lucy leaped and ran to the duo and helped them up and retreated them back to their side of the arena.
Odin showed a small grin, even stood up and cleared his throat for attention. "This is no doubt a fight to remember, and I give credit to the combatants.
Ingrid, even though you were on the verge of defeat, you came back and showed your strength to protect Asuna, who helped you recover from your corrupted state."
Ingrid showed a small smile and nodded at Odin's direction, proud to be given praise from Odin.
"Asuna, as soon as you saw your partner at her worst state, you were willing to give yourself to save her and ensure that the battle would go in your favor.". Asuna nodded as well
Soon, Odin looked at the Kendo duo, but with a rather warm smile.
"And there goes me thinking you 2 wouldn't last 10 minutes against Ingrid and Asuna… But you 2 have made yourselves worthy warriors. You took opportunities to attack and defend, and always stood up no matter the situation, even willing to use your weapons abilities to have a greater advantage"
The duo nodded weakly, tired and exhausted, but nonetheless proud that they've managed to win the fight by time regulation.
"Even though you 2 would've lost if it weren't for time… I am, however, declare this victory to the Sekiryuutei team".
With that, Issei and the others cheered with jubilance, proud that they've won the match but by the skin of their teeth. But the fight was not completely over as the next combatants were soon announced.
"Will the next combatants for the Sekiryuutei's team step forward?" Göndul said as Theodora stepped forward eagerly awaiting her opponent.
Seeing as it was her turn, Chelsea took a deep breath as she started to walk forward while the girls had a fearful look in their eyes.
Seeing this, and knowing Chelsea's strength and weakness, Issei took Chelsea's hand, stopping her in her tracks.
As Chelsea turned towards Issei, she saw that he was barely holding his rage and fury at check, deciding that it would be smarter to be quiet then to provoke him even further.
Chelsea allowed him go past her, while she stood in place waiting to hear what he had to say or do.
"Lord Odin!" Issei said loudly getting the All-Father to look at him while stroking his chin.
"Yes, young Sekiryuutei?"
"If I can say something?" Issei asked which prompted a nod in response giving him the go ahead.
"Chelsea isn't a fighter in a typical manner, she is more a Spy/Assassin type, so this fight that she and your chosen warrior will fight would be over very quickly in her defeat. And I think we already have shown our power to you and the other Gods of the Norse."
Issei said bluntly, making some Valkyries look at him with raised eyebrows while Kendo duo and Cassie had wide eyes at what Issei said, not believing in Chelsea's fighting skills.
Though while they wanted to protest, they were stopped by a sharp look from Lucy that told them to keep quiet.
"Hm...is that so..." Odin said calmly while stroking his beard.
Though while Odin was calm, Thor was fuming at Issei's way of speaking, and two victories that his team made against some of the best that they had.
"She will fig..." Thor started to say before he was interrupted by Arnett's scythe to his neck again.
"Thor. I thought I told you to not interfere in this, or do I have to cut you up for you to see it?"
Arnett asked in a threatening tone, that was clear to the Norse God of War that he was stepping his boundary a bit too much.
Even he wasn't that dumb to go on the bad side of one of the strongest Valkyries in Asgard.
Especially if that Valkyr was a sadistic battle maniac, with a lot of Bloodlusts and was considered a prodigy among weapon users, with only Ingrid and Asuna barely managing to even come close to Arnett's battle prowess.
"Thor, I thought I told you to stop this foolish behavior. This was your idea to begin with it. Or do I need to teach you how to behave?"
Odin said as he turned towards his son, with his lone eye shining with power making Thor gulp a bit while nodding in fear at what his father might do.
With his lecture towards his son done, Odin once again turned towards Issei who was now even more furious, knowing that Thor was the one that made the girls that he cared for suffer.
Clearing his thought, Odin spoke. "I see your view young Sekiryuutei, the battle between Chelsea and Theodora will be counted as a victory for Asgard.
But that doesn't mean that this contest of power is over. You and Lucifuge heir will have to fight."
"I see, and I thank you, Lord Odin." Issei said respectably while turning towards Chelsea, who looked a bit hurt.
