Chapter 344: Victory?

Date- 27 Mar 2321

Time- 17:10

Location- Sky Blossom City, Card Stadium, Arena

Card apprentices can summon familiars to do their bidding using summon cards. Be it graded or unique summon cards they all are useless without a Card apprentice to summon and maintain them. In fact, the first page of how to fight a summoner one-0-one teaches that the summoned familiar’s Achilles heel is their summoner themselves. Therefore it is a widely used strategy to get to the summoner first to end the duel early with fewer casualties.

That is how it was supposed to be with Cortney and her summons Bloodette. But it wasn’t as even after Cortney was knocked out her familiar continued to rampage in the arena. I was not the only one who was confused by the current situation even the referee was in a bind on how to judge the current duel.

“Blood Weapon- Blood Scythe” Bloodette used blood manipulation to materialize a scythe condensed out of the blood. Despite going berserk, her target was still me. She ignored Cloud lord who struck her with lightning and her master who was unconscious right now. This was mysterious, Bloodette seems to have lost her reasoning but still, she continued to aim at me ignoring everything, even her defense.

Normally if a contestant is rendered unconscious he/she loses since he/she is unable to continue to fight or defend themselves. Right now the situation is similar but also not. The Contestant has been rendered unconscious but somehow her summons continues to maintain its existence and execute her task. So even though the contestant is unconscious she has not lost her ability to fight or defend herself. Now, this is tricky. Should he declare a winner or let it continue as it is. The referee was not in the predicament for long as he received an order to let the fight continue.

Seeing the referee not planning on declaring the end of the match by declaring my victory I decided to make my victory more obvious. But Before that, I had to get Bloodette off my back.

“Blood swordsman – blood manipulation – blood reinforcement.

Blue spring – water dome

Cloud lord – lightning mesh

Summon Stone viltronian x5″

With Bloodette losing sense going berserk it would be given that her blood manipulation on my blood would have canceled or decreased but it did not the blood manipulation became stronger. It continues to passively manipulate my blood. The temperature and blood flow of my blood was reaching record high despite having the blood swordsman hinder her blood manipulation on me as much as possible. If it continued I could die with my heart exploding so I had Blood swordsman reinforce my blood so it can resist the external influence on it.

Meanwhile, I ordered blue spring to trap Bloodette in its water domain which was easy since Bloodette had lost all her reasoning and just charged right in like some kind of wild monster. After trapping Bloodette in the water dome I strengthened it with lightning mesh as insurance. I know these two measures are not enough and they cannot last long against Bloodette but they are enough to keep her busy as I executed my plan to have unconscious Cortney thrown out of the arena. This way the referee will have to disqualify Cortney bringing an end to this fight.

After rendering Cortney unconscious I had retrieved my floating heads and hands thinking that the duel ended with my victory. But it did not. Since Cortney is unconscious I can no longer use my ability ‘if you see me I can see you’ on her. Meaning now I can not use my floating heads and hands to reach her covertly and throw unconscious Cortney out of the arena bounds.

Therefore I summoned Stone viltronian’s to have them carry Cortney out of bounds while the ego elementals and I draw Bloodette’s attention. Bloodette did not seem to care about unconscious Cortney but the same can not be said if it feels its summoner Cortney is in danger. So to not take chances I had to plan it elaborately.

As planned while I and the ego elements trapped Bloodette in the water dome and lightning mesh, the stone viltronian’s carried unconscious Cortney to the edge of the arena and gently placed her out of the arena. The plan worked without a hitch.

“Cortney Ress disqualified, out of arena bounds.”

“Winner Dalton Wyatt” the referee finally had no choice but to declare me as the victor. But there is one problem, Bloodette seems to have not heard the announcement or she doesn’t care. She continued her onslaught as she ripped apart the water dome and the lightning mess with her blood scythe.

I had defeated Cortney and the duel had ended but it did not seem to matter to Bloodette or the referee and the audience for that matter. They continued to watch Bloodette wave her blood scythe at me. I finally realized that I could not avoid fighting Bloodette even if I had won the duel. And also the authorities were not that keen on helping me out.

“Screw it, Summon Yellow Sun – Holy Light of purification

Skill combo, Holy rainbow of purification

Blood Swordsman Possession.

Blood burning x3

Skill combo, Enhanced Holy rainbow of purification” I was hesitant to use the possession skill again therefore this time round I only had Blood swordsman to possess me so that I could perform blood burning once again to enhance the combo skill Holy rainbow of purification. And also because blood reinforcement was no longer enough to hinder Bloodette’s blood manipulation on me.

The three Avatars were a huge part of my physical prowess. After having them sacrificed to Blood Burning skill of Blood swordsman in the previous battle against the Demon fire Corey Park, I made use of calamity daughter gem and soul jades to recreate them to complete my gigamite physique.

Being possessed by Blood swordsman was more productive than I had thought it would be. I was no longer sluggish under the effect of Bloodette’s blood manipulation. And was able to move more agile. If I knew this I would not have hesitated to have Blood swordsman possess me since the beginning of the duel.
