"I hope you are prepared for the Deathmatch."
Nux questioned as he playfully stepped on Sauren's fallen arm.
"..."
Sauren, on the other hand, was frozen still.
Only when his arm had fallen off and his brain registered the immense pain did he realize that his arm was chopped off and this frightened him to his core.
Not because he was afraid of the pain. It may not look like it because of his shameful display for the past few days, but in truth, Sauren was an elite as well. As a cultivator of the Ancestral Order, a chopped-off arm was not a big deal for him, it was painful, yes, but not to the point where it would make him scream in agony and fill him with endless fear.
What he was scared of was the fact that he couldn't see Nux move.
Sauren knew since the battle had started, he could tell that he was faster than Nux. Yes, for some reason, Nux's reaction speed was a lot faster than it should be, making it difficult for him to make a move, However, Sauren could tell that Nux was definitely slower than him. For him to chop his arm off let alone react in time to dodge or block, he wasn't even able to see him move... This shouldn't be possible!
It made no sense at all!
Nux was able to dodge his attacks, yes, however, the rest of the battle should have been gone with Nux continuously dodging his attacks till his stamina finally catches up with him and his reaction speed automatically slows down, allowing him a chance to finally land a hit and get rid of this bastard once and for all.
After all, as a Saint Stage Cultivator, he couldn't possibly lose to a Semi Saint in terms of stamina, now could he?
Of course, how would the poor Saint know that Nux was trained by one of the most unreasonable women in the world?
Vyriana had beaten an almost endless amount of stamina into Nux while she was training him, allowing him to go on forever, this, combined with Nux's new ability to adapt and improve in the middle of the battle made Sauren's battleplan the worse way to fight Nux.
With Nux growing continuously, hoping for him to lose out in stamina and finally catching him was no different than suicide, it was a direct invitation for Nux to catch up to his enemy's level and then surpass him, leaving him to dust and end the battle.
And that is exactly what happened with Sauren.
While he attacked him all this while, Nux's body had adapted and he had already surpassed him in terms of speed.
In this battle, Sauren now stood absolutely no chance and to further prove this,
Slash
"AAaaaaaAAagggghhhH!!"
Nux sliced Sauren's second arm as well.
Sauren screamed in agony, fountain of blood rushed out from the places his arms were chopped off from, his arms wriggled on the ground before falling still.
"..."
Silence fell all over the stadium.
It was over.
Without his arms, there was nothing Sauren could do in this battle, the spells he had been casting weren't affecting Nux since the start, no way they would do something different now.
Yes, he could use his legs to show some resistance, but in the end, everyone knew it was pointless. It might have worked if his opponent was weakened to some degree, however... There was not even a drop of blood on Nux's body, heck, let alone blood, he wasn't even sweating. Nux looked as good as new, it was as if he never fought a battle at all.
The people couldn't believe it, it was a level of dominance Nux usually showed in normal battles, but to think he would show it in front of the Leader of what once was a Top Clan... Even the Divine Stage Cultivators present in the stadium had solemn looks on their faces.
At the same time, a few of the cultivators also turned towards Arcturus, this was the main reason they were here in the first place, after all, even if Nux Leander was winning, everyone knew that his main enemy wasn't Sauren.
Nux's real enemy had not even made a move yet.
At first, people believed that Nux was a fool for showing up in this situation, now, however, after seeing what Nux did, their minds changed.
Arcturus was powerful, however, Nux didn't seem like a fool who would throw his life away like this either, especially when everything was in his control.
People were looking forward to what Nux Leander would do and...how would Arcturus Blaze react.
"Hmm, I don't think you can help me anymore."
Nux spoke with a calm look on his face as he glanced at Sauren desperately jumping around trying to attack him.
There was no point in humiliating this man anymore, he had already done it countless times before. It was now time t"You bastard! Don't you dare think this is ov-"
Before Sauren could even complete his sentence, he felt his vision turning upside down, he felt that he was losing control over his body and the time slowed down.
Then, he heard Nux's calm voice,
"It is over."
The last thing Sauren saw was his own headless body, with a fountain of blood coming out of his neck and Sauren finally realized.
He was beheaded.
Just like Nux said, the battle was over.
'Ah... I shouldn't have messed with him...'
It was too late to regret, Sauren knew, however, he refused to give Nux one last satisfaction, and instead of showing fear, He just closed his eyes and accepted his fate.
Thud Thud
His head rolled over, after his head, it was his body that had lost its balance and fell down. Blood was still coming out from all three places Nux's sword had moved.
Sauren Thorn was dead. ππππππππ£πΈπΏππ.ππΈπΆ
There was no reaction on Nux's face, for him, the act of killing Sauren was as minor as swatting a bug.
Then, he finally glanced at Arcturus and suddenly, his expressionless look changed,
"Arcturus, I learned from some trusted sources that you have something interesting to say to me?"
He spoke informally as if the Dragon Lord was his long-time friend.
Arcturus narrowed his eyes, in an instant, he turned towards the Vampire King, the only person who knew about this and as if knowing that he would have such a reaction, Alaric was looking elsewhere, not meeting Arcturus's eyes.
The Dragon Lord's face twitched, he, however, could feel that others were looking at him with curious looks on their faces so in the end, he had no choice but to continue, He glanced at Nux and just when everyone was curious as to what would happen next, how would the two of them fight and what would Nux do to avoid a battle against Arcturus,
"Congratulations on your victory."
Arcturus praised, surprising everyone in the crowd.
What...?
The Dragon Lord was praising Nux...? The man he had gone to such lengths in order to harm him?
How...?
Why...?
What in the hell happened in the last few days for him to act like this...?
Of course, not everyone was as confused as the others, some Divine Stage Cultivators who were there when Caesar and Faustina appeared could understand Arcturus's thought process.
They could tell that Arcturus wanted to bury the hatched by congratulating Nux, a solution and end to all this farce.
However,
"Hmm? Did I hear that right? Arcturus Blaze is congratulating me? For what?"
Nux questioned, his tone was still as playful as before.
Arcturus frowned, however, knowing Nux's nature, he decided to give him a chance and bear with his antics a little, "For winning the battle."
He replied.
"But wasn't the one I was fighting against your underling?
Winning against him means that I won against you, didn't I?
Why would you congratulate someone for defeating you though?
Or is it something losers do to save themselves from the embarrassment? I apologize for being ignorant in these matters, After all, I am not a loser, I have no need for such tricks."
Nux smirked.
From his tone, it was clear that he was mocking the Dragon Lord. An act that surprised and horrified everyone in the crowd.
The only ones sitting with calm looks on their faces were Nux's wives, it was clear that they were already expecting something like this to happen.
After all, just like everyone thought, today was indeed the day when all this farce would finally end, just that it wouldn't be in the way everyone thought it would be.
"Do not overstep your limits,"
Arcturus narrowed his eyes.
He couldn't allow Nux to step over his pride like that.
"Hmm? I am overstepping my limits?"
Nux acted surprised.
"Aren't you the one who wanted to kill me first? Isn't that where all limits are normally broken?" He questioned.
"The one I wanted to kill was the Devil, not you."
Arcturus tried to calm the situation and shift the blame, but then,
"The Devil?"
Nux tilted his head in confusion and,
"Do you mean..."
His features started changing.
"Me?"
