Tournament Of Delusions!

Episode 8: The Qualifiers' End!

"I call upon the flames of darkness to gift me with the weapons I desire. May the weapons of darkness be bestowed upon my hands!" Dark Flame Master gripped his swords tightly as he charged towards Ghost.

"Dual wielding won't help you this snow arena will have to decrease your speed" Ghost shouted as he blocked the two blades with his lancer.

"Jun, here's your chance!"

Dark Flame Master turned to his right to see a man equipped with a dagger close in on him.

Damn it…!

"I won't let you!" a voice came from his left, a sharp sound of a blade cutting through the air was released. Jun had stopped moving at all, his HP has reached zero.

"Jun!" Ghost yelled as he pushed Dark Flame Master away.

"Get impaled!" he yelled as he ran in Dark Flame Master's direction.

"I wouldn't…" just as Dark Flame Master attempted to stop him, another slash was made, "do that… never mind"

"Impossible… at such speed?" Ghost vanished into the light.

"You really are a bit over protective about me aren't you?" he asked the girl who appeared from thin air.

"No, not at all, I just don't want anyone else defeating you, that's all"

"I would've won that battle"

"Really? But you weren't moving"

"Because I knew you would do something like that"

She laughed at the truth. She has been protecting me since the first qualifiers match an hour ago. Since then, every match we participated in was like that. We're now in the fourth match.

Suddenly an explosion appeared at the north end of the arena "Anyways, let's check on the others"

They headed north and saw Wicked Eye taking on the team leader Jin.

"Will she be alright?" Black Phantom asked.

"Yeah she will, knowing her, she'll pull through that"

Wicked Eye noticed Dark Flame Master at the corner of her eyes. Yuuta's watching me; I'll beat Jin as I am the person who holds the lover's contract with him.

"Dark Matter Blaze!" she forced Jin to back away from her. Here's my chance…!

"Split open door of darkness, release the darkness within, utilize the power of the King of Demise to scatter the fictitious and conduct me to the finale! Schwarz Aschenputtel!"

"No!" Jin yelled as he was vaporised.

Magical Devil Girl smirked as she decided to deal the final blow to Game Buster, "Now I shall finish this too, Firebird Flame Flash!"

The announcer announced the result of the battle, "Winner is Team Far Eastern Magic Nap Society"

They were quickly teleported back.

"This is the final round of the qualifiers, we must refill all our potions right now before twenty minutes is up" commanded Dark Flame Master.

They hurried into the item's store and purchased the necessary amount of potions for the last round of the qualifiers.

They entered the café and chatted for the remaining time which was soon over. They spawned in the lake arena.

Dark Flame Master checked the name of the team, "This team is… Team Annihilator… it's a three people party?!"

Mjollnir Hammer gave a small laugh, "Three people huh? They're pretty sure of themselves now aren't they? Death"

"No Team Annihilator is one of the most powerful teams, even with three people they made it to the end of the qualifiers" added Black Phantom.

"How did they manage this with just three people?"

"They use a-" she stopped as she felt the ground trembling beneath her feet.

A tall metallic figure came out of the forest.

"They use a giant mecha suit"

"A mecha suit?! How?!"

"They probably purchased it after a few matches yesterday when the qualifiers began. But I heard that it is just a mount item, it supposedly has no delusions to it"

"In that case, we can destroy it! Dark Flame!" Dark Flame Master blasted the mecha suit with his blazing hot flames. I'll melt the metal down. Simple trick for all mecha suits.

He stopped his attack and watched as it burned. But the suit suddenly started to move again.

"What? But how? Fire melt's metal" asked Dark Flame Matser in frustration.

"They must've added a fire resistance delusion to the suit" said Black Phantom.

"No way! Mori Summer, try shocking it!"

"Gottcha!" she summoned her shock magic and blasted the suit full of electricity, but it still has no effect.

"Shock resistance too?!"

What else can damage metal? It might have resistance to all elemental attacks. We just have tried physical attacks yet. just as the thought came by, Mjollnir Hammer leaped toward the suit and swung her hammer.

"Can you take this? Death"

The suit's HP barely moved down. It slammed its fists into the ground and caused a shock wave to hit the whole party away.

"Damn it, can they be so over powered?"

No wait… there should always be a way to beat a suit with resistance that high, I just need to think of a way… that's it!

"Mori Summer, use a water bubble of some sort on it!"

"A water bubble? What's that going to do?!"

"Never mind that, just do it!"

She nodded and prepared to caster the spell, "Water spirits lend me your assistance, Water Containment!"

Water covered the suit from its feet to the head. It should work… if the laws of logic work a bit in this game…

The metal of the suit began to rust rapidly while its HP dropped down rapidly. It struggled inside the bubble until pieces of its body were torn apart.

"Winner is Team Far Eastern Magic Nap Society"

They teleported back to the town and celebrated in the centre of the plaza with many people cheering for the victors of the qualifiers.

"We did it!" Wicked Eye jumped up and down with joy, and soon embraced Dark Flame Master who smiled and wrapped his arms around her.

"Yeah, we did… all that's left now is the tournament tomorrow…"

"Let's win that too everyone!"

"Yeah!" they cheered in unison.
