Chapter 300: Shakuni Vs Parallax
Chapter 300: Shakuni Vs Parallax
Rudra pretty much knew he had this match in the bag now , unless Parallax could find enough time to take a healing potion , but considering his rattled state of mind that clouded his judgment and how Rudra was eyeing him like a scavenger looking at a bleeding prey , he doubted he would ever get such an opportunity.
Parallax was a scared cub now , his moves were unclean and laced with fear. The moves he would have parried easily were now hitting him constantly , chipping away at his health , alongside the passive bleed damage.
Rudra had nothing but contempt and pity for Parallax , who was not at all a ‘ weak ‘ player by any standards , however he was a player with weak mentality. He was a skilled levelling maniac , and that was all there was to him. An overinflated sense of ego , and a lack of discipline and spine that would help him get through tough times , meant that the moment he was in a disadvantagous position , he would loose control of the match.
Rudra was a master manipulator , from the start of the match till this point , he had constantly put pressure into manipulating Parallax into using his best moves , and when those moves yielded no results , he sunk into despair , his thought process becoming like , I can’t deal with him with my best move … What else can I do?
The moment the self doubt crept in , he stopped thinking about the fight , and started thinking about what he did wrong , loosing focus and getting slashed around by Rudra.
Rudra kept up the intense pressing for about 5 minutes , and slowly Parallax started to show more and more signs of sluggishness. His breathing had became ragged , as his movements became slower and slower , his stamina had started to bottom out.
This greatly shocked Parallax , Shakuni had such high stats distributed into strength and agility , how could he also have such high stamina? This made absolutely 0 sense to him , as he kept staring at Rudra , whose pace had not slowed down a single bit.
After a while he cursed , shouting ” What is wrong with you and your bottomless stamina , why am I the one who is out of gas before you , this makes no sense , with the points you have spent in agility and strength , you should not have much left for stamina ! “.
Rudra only smugged and did not reply , instead opting to use twin blade hurricane for offense.
Extremely fast movement of twoswords absolutely dismanteled Parallax’s armour , dealing cuts after cuts of what seemed like a blinding speed of delivering blows.

Parallax’s dark yellow HP went into red , he had less than 15% HP remaining under his bar! And his mind was blank , he could not think of any possible ways of countering Rudra.
His mind went onto useless things like , how will he face the media after such a humiliating defeat , what will his countrymen think of him? What about his promise to bring them gold medal? He talked big about making Shakuni his b***h before the match , however he had not even grazed Shakuni yet.
Unlike popular Anime where when the MC thinks about his reason to fight and suddenly bursts with unforseen strength. Here in reality it only sunk him even lower. Fear gripped his heart , he was terrifyed of all the mockings and the trolling he would recieve after he died.
Rudra noticed that his opponent was unfocused , and used the move ‘ Suppression art ‘. It was a five step move meant to disarm the opponent and deliver a critical strike.
The first move hit Parallax’s sword near the very hilt , sending a powerfull shock through his wrists.
The second move forced him to block a wide arm blow , by meeting it with a wide swing of his own. However much to his dismay , due to his inferior strength his sword was pinned under Rudra’s.
The third strike used Rudra’s second sword to hit the grip of the suppressed sword , with such force that Parallax had no choice but to let go of the sword , if he did not wish his arm to be sliced off , now disarmed he was vulnerable to attacks.
Fourth strike was a elbow right to Parallax’s jaw , causing minor physical damage , however forcing the opponents eyes away from the fifth and crucial strike.
The fifth strike , a double penetration right into both his lungs!
-15,000 CRITICAL HIT!
A deadly attack forced Parallax to come down to 1% HP barely hanging in the fight , and disarmed.
Shock and horror made him stutter , he was barely hanging by a thread , and his demons had completely consumed his mind.
He fell on his knees and began to beg Rudra ” Please , spare me , I’ll give you everything , gold , weapons and rare treasures , forefit this match, please , please let me go … I…I…iffff I loose noone will respect me …. I’ll be a nobody ….I can’t be a nobody …. Please … I beg you “.
This scene was etched into the memory of the billions across the world watching this match , the proud parallax over the course of 12 minutes of fighting was only left as a shell of his former self , begging on his knees , while facing Shakuni.
The electric crowd became silent at this moment , then the loudest BOOOOOOO in the history of sports ensued.
” WEAKLING…. WEAKLING….IM DISGUSTED! “.
” GET UP AND FIGHT ! PATHETIC BAS****”.
” HEY , HEY , HEY I BET MONEY ON YOU , GET UP AND FIGHT “.
” SPINELESS RANKER , WHO MADE THIS PUNK THE FLAGBEARER? “.
the boo’s never ended as snarly comments were passed around .
Ethan Grey was thoroughly enjoying himself , as he was chilling Popping popcorn into his mouth , this was more entertaining than he expected , unlike others he wanted to see Parallax squirm and squeel even more .
All eyes were on Rudra , he could not be possibly considering Parallax’s offer right…?
Nobody knew , as Rudra continued to look down on Parallax with a murderous look in his eyes , only the slightest damage and he would win this match … What would his decision be?
