Chapter 489: A Trickster?
-----
The battle between Kuro and Julia had left Frank thinking a lot, the development of Gwendolyn and Axitl was incredible, he had never expected them to go so all out to the point of evolving their own powers.
Kuro and Julia were admirable foes, and their strength was also incredible. Clementine had said that they were one of the strongest pairs she had in her Clan, and they clearly showed that. Gwendolyn and Axitl had barely managed to win when they abused of everything they had at their disposal, absolutely every power!
And if it wasn't thanks to Axitl's outstanding power over the Chaos elements, Gwendolyn might had never been able to win against Kuro, it was thanks to her chaos element that Kuro's time magic was able to be destroyed.
Nonetheless, Axitl was also constantly bathed in her weakness, holy light, while constantly regenerating from it. This had made it, so she had grown exponentially stronger. Her abilities using her own body were continuously explored and abused through the battle, and her chaos magic developed greatly.
One of her greatest abilities, however, and the one that brought them to victory was her power to create clones, which evolved immensely in the battle! Now, Axitl and Gwendolyn were left exhausted and were currently resting after the battle, the same goes for Kuro and Laura, Mochi and Kokoro, and Kaguya and Sadako.
Frank couldn't help but grow interested in the future ahead. The battle that was to come might be a very interesting one. He had seen the four previous ones fight before, but now, Orb and Kamei, who had barely participated in long battles before, were now about to go all out in a battle against two frightening Demigods.
Frank felt both excited and also… worried. He had tried to stop them from participating before. He was very concerned about their safety. After all, Orb was a little Dungeon Core and Kamei his little sister. He couldn't fathom to see these two little girls getting beaten down by brutes in front of him.
However, no matter how much he insisted, these two wanted to participate, and showed it to him as they unleashed their powerful divine auras in front of him as they requested him that they wanted to participate.
Frank was left hopeless, he couldn't fight against their wills, and if he negated them their path to breaking their limits, they wouldn't easily forgive him. He had to recognize they had a lot of potential and power, but they were still young and na?ve in many aspects and could… perhaps go wrong.
The previous four fighters were all experienced in fighting or were greatly stronger one way or another, but this pair now… they were rather young and also had not developed their power completely to the extent the previous four had done it…
But Frank couldn't do anything over it other than let them fight and see how far they could reach, how far they could achieve through this fight. He did trust them though, he had faith on their power and had seen them fight and train before.
He had only one thing he could do, trust them
However, what happened here was that Orb was getting played by this Dan guy way too much and she was getting too angered. Frank knew immediately that she might be falling for his trap way too easily and that she might be forced to go all out or something weird, and get knocked over by his tricks…
However, as he tried to find a way to make her understand it was a trap, Kamei acted.
"This damn bastard! I don't care if he looks like a handsome manga character, my Frank is way cuter anyways! I am going to beat him down!" she roared angrily.
"Orb, calm down… Don't you get it?" sighed Kamei.
"Huh?"
"Dan is trying to trick you into getting angry. He most likely has some kind of tactic that involves you getting angered to the point of going insane against him… Perhaps his power can help him abuse those that lose their composure and cannot properly discern their surroundings or something… he looks like a trickster to me with that smile…" said Kamei.
"Eh? A trickster… You're… right. I think I was going a bit too angry there…" sighed Orb, she generated water through her Dungeon Creation ability and washed her face. Using energy accumulated in her dungeon, she could create a variety of things…
"Now I am ready!" she said.
"Alright, but don't lower your guard against these two. They look way too frightening… But I am not backing down either… I know that my magic is rather effective against them, so I will abuse it as much as I can to bring us victory… you're good at physical and defensive fighting, so how about you aid me in defense?" asked Kamei.
"Sure! Count on me, Kamei-chan." Said Orb, smiling cutely.
"Alright…!" said Kamei, holding her golden staff as Orb was completely bare fisted.
Why?
Dan and Gustavo couldn't help but glare at this little loli and think she was some kind of strong magical fighter to not wield any sort of weapon or armor, but she didn't had any accessory of magic either, nor any staff either… nor anything of the sort!
How was she so confident like this?
The two thought… "She's an idiot."
And well, they were not wrong, Orb was quite an idiot sometimes. But she was also a hard worker and a unique being that they didn't even knew about. If they were to learn she was a Dungeon Core, they would probably not even know what to use against her. None of them had ever fought against a sentient and mobile dungeon core after all.
The Skeleton Butler looked at the scene… after receiving the nod from Clementine, he sighed.
"Once more, another fight is about to begin…"
"Alright! The fight might begin… NOW!"
The Skeleton Butler raised his skeletal hand as he gave the signal of the fight to begin, the pair looked at each other, as their divine auras emanated from their bodies…!
The fight was finally about to begin!
