"Alta Sus and Zui Mu," Kritz announced.
There was a loud gasp from the crowd at the first name, all those who had not been present had gotten word on who she was and didn't need any introduction.
The majority of meretrix one all grimaced and held their breath as they looked in the direction of Zui who had a horror-stricken face at the pairing.
Hisha leaned forward and let out a subtle laugh at what was going to happen.
[Chances of surviving, can you guess?]
'I'd place my bet on 0% except a miracle happens.' Hisha blatantly replied.
[Couldn't agree more]
Whoosh!
A hush of wind followed before a figure dropped to the floor with a cloud of smoke rising in the air.
[Warning? Yandere]
Hisha threw his legs over his left armrest and had a wicked smile on his lips. "Finally some show I could enjoy after the first round!"
'Let the tournament begin.'
Alta spread out her wings as she stretched, flapping them the gust of wind dispersed the residue dust particles, her yellow eyes glowed as she took in the crowd around her.
A twisted grin spread across her face as her lips. "I was summoned." free(w)ebnov(e)l
Kritz flinched at her words and finally understood that she had intentionally hid her Sux until she was directly called to participate in the tournament.
Hisha got to his feet and with amusement written on his face, he took the responsibility for the call. "Welcome to your first tournament."
[Exp+3]
Alta folded her wings and had a sweet smile the moment she was able to set her eyes on him.
Hisha nodded to acknowledge her, this was something he enjoyed in her presence–her desire always popped up whenever she was with him.
Alta whipped her head in the direction of the rest and glared hate at the harem, wondering who was Zui.
She could easily recognize those in meretrix one and her eye fell onto Solara. "Is it you?"
Solara returned the same energy with the glow in her eyes. "I wish demoness!"
The corner of Alta's lips raised to the challenge. "It isn't you," she concluded with a sigh and shook her head in disappointment.
Zui got to her feet and shook her hands off Solara. "I can do this."
Solara's heart broke upon hearing those words. Her Sux was at risk with someone who had nearly an excess of it.
"You could always give up." Solara cut in during her moment of worry about Zui's situation.
Zui patted Solara on the shoulder and proceeded to get into the arena.
Ripping a bit of her blue dress so it was just a knee-length jagged edge that would aid in better movement. She levitated and gently took her place in the arena.
Alta scoffed and raised her chin at the competition, "you were the one who had created that barrier the last time we met."
"I'm shocked you still remember my face." Zui spat.
"I never forget those I hadn't killed off. Even the lowly ones." Alta retorted and had her wings spread out as she hardened her black feathers, "remember this?"
There was a cry let out from a member of meretrix one, the horrors of what she witnessed and survived came rushing back.
The tribal chiefs oblivious to what had happened whispered to one another as they tried to get the story of what was so peculiar about this succubus that they had never set eyes on, nor did they put her up for the selection.
"I was the one who picked her, do you all have a problem with that?" Hisha proudly cut in their murmurs.
He could only guess the original host had kept Alta a secret from the rest excluding Kritz in all of this.
She was the only one considered his harem as she had a little struggle to prove herself from the onset.
Zui had readied herself by creating a barrier around herself and slapped her hands on the floor creating a magic circle that created a whirlwind around her.
This move was tricky as the attacks would be redirected towards the other direction and the harem, tribal chiefs, and Hisha would be caught in the ensuing battle because of this.
'There is no way she would risk everyone's life because of on reckless action!' Zui thought with a smirk.
Her once confident attitude died out when Alta gave a twisted smile. Her wings curved slightly and a barrage of razor-sharp hardened feathers shot out.
'What the hell?! The others would be affected if–'
Zui's lips gaped open slightly as she watched the feathers get redirected at everyone but instead of making direct contact with any, they bounced off and dropped to the floor.
Hisha scoffed as he effortlessly created a barrier on the harem members once more. When he looked to his sides, he burst out into laughter.
He had intentionally left out the tribal chiefs to fend for themselves and they barely missed by a hair.
The most noticeable were Vanas and Wae, they had just missed the feathers piercing into their foreheads and the rest had their hairs pinned to the backrest of their chairs.
[Hanging heads ready to be delivered on a gold platter]
'Soon, I would gladly give them the honors!' Hisha had a wry smile.
Alta lurched forward with great speed and scratched at the barrier with much ferocity.
Bam!
Bam!
Alta had her fist punching onto the barrier like she had done the last time and had a crazed look with a big smile.
Solara gritted her teeth at the display, she wished she was the one paired as her blood was boiling with untold rage.
'Don't you dare die!' She begged in her thoughts as she was forced to watch without assisting the one person that she had considered a friend.
"There's no one to save you now!" Alta cackled, raising her fist covered in yellow Sux that overflowed from her knuckles.
Bam!
Zui created translucent spikes that broke upon contact with Alta's fists.
"Pathetic!" Alta sneered as she gave another hit to the barrier.
Crrrk! freewe(b)novel
A collective gasp was heard from the rest and some clicked their tongue as they began to expect the worst.
Alta punched her hand through the crack with relative ease and flashed a death glare at Zui.
They watched as Alta mouthed something to Zui and in an instant, her barrier deactivated.
'What the heck just happened?!' Hisha questioned HTC.

A/N
Kudos to [Alusec_BR1] for guessing the right combination and my awesome readers for easily guessing Alta as the dangerous harem (I guess that part was so obvious)
My heartfelt appreciation to those who vote with power stones on my book constantly or happened to devote them currently.
Do use your comments, summoning pens, gifts, votes, and golden tickets to request faster/more updates(I'd respond immediately when we hit the target)
Do you think Zui would survive this?
