Warlock of War: My Ares System



Everybody looked towards him as the royal assassin disappeared from her place in the center of the ring. It was free and up for the taking, but as always, there was a bit of hesitancy. Some would rather not take the risk while the more powerful ones can't even bother… but I enjoy this way too much. Seeing their humiliated and defeated expressions pleases me to no end. 

The echoes of my servant resonated through the crowd and with a large joyous smile, that sadistic bastard pointed toward that arrogant brat. With jagged white tattoos and mystical white eyes, he was sure to be a hotshot… so we might as well take him down now. 

"You. Come up." 

"Drerno! What are you doing!" A hand clapped against my back and as I turned around, I saw the campus queen right before my very eyes. Her disturbed and nervous expression was exhilarating to witness as the boy she had been previously caring for was about to get eradicated. 

"Sorry, sorry… it's just to teach him how this place works. We can't have your little boy toy running around with no restriction… it's best to keep him on a leash so we can rope him in later, right?" I asked Celidri who nervously chomped down on her fingernail. "Right~?" 

As Loci gestured for the dark elf to come up, everybody cleared a path to look at him. He looked relatively unphased at the piles of attention, but I knew people like him. He may be able to keep up that facade on the outside, but on the inside, I knew he was shitting bricks. 

"*sigh*... just don't cripple him," Celidri finally came around and as a massive smile stretched across my face, Loci turned towards me. The dark elf was finally coming up with the pathway carved out of his fellow students who already knew they were sending him to his death. 

Giving Loci the thumbs up, his smile widened even further. The dark elf was given two wooden daggers that were nowhere near as strong or even as sharp as the wooden sword my servant was using. At just a single swing and block, those brittle pieces of wood would shatter instantly in his hands. 

"Hey, you can back out if you want," Loci sadistically chuckled, unable to tame that smile that stretched across his face. "Of course, that's if you want your family to lose face." 

"I'm good. There is no need to back out of a match with somebody who still fucks trees. All of nature fanatics really piss me off… so if you want, you can back out as well. Run with that stupid fucking tail between your legs and go back to banging your little goddess," The boy immediately shot back, causing the audience to ring out a surrounding,

"Ohhhhhhhhh!" 

It wasn't even that good, yet the students were eating up. Maybe it was the adrenaline or maybe it was just the excitement that came from this joyous event, but even if he was good with words… it all came down to strength and his ability to fight. 

The two dark elves circled around the middle of the fighting ring and it wasn't long before Loci took the first move. He was quick, sharp, and skillful as he raised his sword into the air, going for a massive swing that was bound to injure the dark elf whether he liked it or not. Not only would it break through any attempt to block it, but it would serve as an easy opening if he decided to deflect it. 

FWOOSHI think you should take a look at

He disappeared with a massive gust of wind tearing through the entire ring of nature lovers. The dark elf disappeared and then instantly reappeared on top of Loci who was clueless about his opponent's position. 

"Tch… he got him…" I clicked my tongue, watching the young man bring both of his daggers against his forearms, and then flipped them out. 

BOOOOOOM 

His daggers charged with a gust of wind and exploded down into Loci whose back audibly cracked through the arena. He let out a yelp of pain, and as I clicked my tongue, knowing he was going to concede, I turned to Celidri… and her smile. That dreaded smile was back on her face. 

"I-" 

BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM 

A flurry of punches with daggers pressed against his forearms for support, showered Loci until he was coughing up blood. And just as the dark elf stopped, seemingly allowing him to concede, Loci finally spoke up and-

"I- mmmph!" 

The young man covered his mouth, preventing him from conceding. Everybody felt a chill shoot down their spine as the young man sealed Loci's lips with wind and walked over to the sharp sword now glistening in the sun. Everybody now knew just how dangerous we had made it… but somehow it was now being used against us?

To everybody's horror, the dark elf's face devoid of expression tilted upwards into a sadistic smile. Loci turned towards me, attempting to call out for help, but the only he was met with was a cold glare. I wasn't about to help him. I wasn't about to join in on the embarrassment. 

SHING SHING SHING SHING SHING SHING SHING SHING SHING SHING 

Over and over and over and over and over he was stabbed with the sword easily puncturing his flesh. He writhed and screamed, only able to display such emotions through his eyes that looked as if they were about to pop out of their sockets. 

Some puked up their morning breakfast. Some looked at the scene with disgust. Some just watched, analyzing the boy who could potentially threaten the entire ecosystem of this royal academy. And then, with one more final stab, Loci passed out from shock, instantly ending the match and crowning him as the one victor.
