Experience tales at m-vl-e-mpyr
After the super exciting opening match, the other matches continued. The pace of thepetition was quite slow in order to give all the participants enough time to rest up before the next fight. Only the first day was a bit action-packed butter on it would slow down considerably.
Rein and Sophia both also had a match on the first day and Sophia''s match happened earlier than Rein''s. So Sophia shared a long kiss with Rein and went to the arena full of confidence. The slight nervousness that she had the day before hadpletely vanished when it finally was the time for her battle.
Sophia''s opponent was a man with a tall height but at the same time he was also very thin. His skin was dark red in colour and had many white markings on it. Those were not really tattoos but some kind of paint. He was just wearing a short pant and nothing else.
As soon as the match started, a red symbol that looked like the sun started glowing on the man''s back. His body was immediately engulfed by fire and he started looking like a burning straw doll. Then the colour of the me started to change and from yellowish orange it became slightly white.
This fire was extremely hot and anything that came in contact with it immediately melted. Even the ground on which he was standing started melting. This man named Meliodes was not very well known and had never managed to rank very high in anypetitions. The main reason for that was because his symbol ability had many counters and weaknesses.
But if the opponent did not have a direct counter, this ability of his was super powerful. As far as Meliodes knew, this girl''s main power was shadow and darkness which was not a counter to his super hot sun me. Instead the shadow was actually weak to the me.
That was why Meliodes was quite confident in his victory even against an opponent who had managed to rank amongst the Top 150 in the previous championship.
But the match did not go the way he wanted. Sophia used her power of shadow to create an extra sharp dark de. And then she dived into the shadow and ran around all over in order to gather kic energy. Then after she had enough momentum, Sophia threw herself toward her opponent with full force and shed at him.
Because of her super high speed, the power of the sh was enhanced and it cut through theyer of mes to reach Meliodes'' body. He was almost cut in half but at the veryst moment Sophia was able to shift her de slightly so that he would not be killed immediately. That was the only reason why Meliodes was able to live.
So with just that one attack from Sophia, the match ended. Meliodes found himself with a dangerous wound on his body while Sophia was so fast that she was almost invisible to the naked eye. Immediately after Meliodes fell to the ground while bleeding, the whole stadium started cheering loudly.
Sophia''s move was reyed on therge TV screen in slow motion and the experts who were doing thementary exined the finer details of the excellent technique. Because of this clever way to use her powers, Sophia was able to win the first match without revealing any of her trump cards. That was truly amazing.
Many people were impressed by Sophia but at the same time, many other people were scared of her too. They knew that Sophia''s powers were very suited to killing, so when they saw how easily she cut an UR grade blessed up and how impressive Sophia''s speed was, quite a few people felt like that if Sophia wanted to take someone''s head then it was very much possible for her to easily aplish that.
So for that reason quite a few people were scared about how dangerous Sophia''s ability was.
...
Just about an hour after Sophia''s match, Rein also had his. His opponent was a fat andrge man. This person was a famous streamer who yed many video games. But at the same time, he was somewhat like a pacifist and did not like to fight much.
His ability allowed him to create a shield around himself. This shield was quite powerful and hard to break. He was one of the rare UR grade Blessed who used a gun. As his ability waspletely defensive, he needed something that could hurt his opponent. For that reason he carried a special gun which was able to hurt even a powerful blessed.
But still, this gun had many limitations. Human made machines had very little effect on a blessed and only items made from monsters were useful. But even those items had their limits and were usable for only one or two times. So Rein''s opponent, Brendon tried to find a perfect opportunity to use his gun while believing in his defence to protect himself from Rein.
But this n did not go well as Rein was able to only use his concept of me to break through his barrier. Rein concentrated his me in a single point and increased its destructive power by a huge degree. The barrier was unable to withstand that much power attacking a single point and broke.
Rein only broke Brandon''s barrier and did not hurt him at all. But Brandon knew that without the protection of his barrier, he would not be able to do anything. So he immediately epted his defeat. That was how Rein also easily won his first match in the championship.
Sophia''s win was not that much of a surprise as many people were guessing that Sophia would be able to rank in the top 100 this time. But no one had expected Rein to also win. The move that Rein used to win was quite powerful and many other UR grades were also impressed.
But most of them were confident that this move would be easy for them to handle, so even though they were impressed by Rein, they did not take him too seriously. This particr move was a hard counter for Brandon, so they still did not think that Rein could rank amongst the top tier UR grades.
...
After the first day of the championship was over, Rein and Sophia privately celebrated each other''s victory. Both of their matches went extremely well where they were able to win without showing off much of their tricks. That was exactly what both Rein and Sophia wanted.
The next day they did not have a match. So Sophia and Rein both were nning to enjoy themselves a little bit. But after that Rein was going to fight against a very experienced opponent so he needed to stay focused. As for Sophia, five of her next opponents were not that big of a deal, so she could take it a bit easy.
But obviously as Sophia was determined to win this wholepetition, she was not ready to lose her focus.
That was how the World Blessed Championship continued.
