Chapter 500: Great Performances
-----
The battle had ended but it still felt as if it was still going on, many of the Vampires felt ashamed as they had lost once more, but even then, they had lost barely, the forces of Frank always coming in clutch felt like a stab in the back by how painful and surprising they were.
The power of Frank's group was outstanding, and it was clear as they were shown to be able to handle even the power of Demigod-Rank Vampires like nothing! The entire battle between Dan, Gustavo, Kamei, and Orb was a good example by how well adapted for battle they truly were!
Even then, many of the Vampires would have a heart attack if they were to learn that this was actually Orb's first fight ever, as she had only fought monsters before. She had merely employed all the power she knew about as a Dungeon that has made, crafted, and created Traps her entire life. But it wasn't as if she was slow or weak, as a Demigoddess, her power was greatly underestimated despite how strong she truly could be. And because she lacked a flesh body, she had an advantage over others by lacking many weak spots that fleshy bodies had.
For example her face was attacked several times but never did anything to her, unlike living beings with flesh, she lacked such thing and therefore lacked their weaknesses. Having her throat sliced didn't do anything to her and she could even have her head sliced apart and she could be fine, generating a new head like nothing, absolutely nothing!
However, her Dungeon Core still ended cracked at the end due to Gustavo's deadly might, his power and his awakened power was truly incredible, something not many would had been even able to actually handle as well as Orb did.
Despite this, the power Gustavo had shown ended being truly admirable as he called upon his innermost power, the entity residing in his soul for strange and unknown motives, which ended helping him use the power of the Void element within him and shape it as deadly tentacles that constantly released this essence of power towards anything it touched!
If this thing would had targeted Kamei's fortress, it would had been easily destroyed, but the old man ended fixated in attacking Orb, which really put her in a sticky situation but that didn't completely suppressed her from continuing to fight, and while Kamei distracted Dan, she was able to set all sorts of Traps while Dan who was able to destroy them with a single touch ended being distracted by Kamei.
Although both girls fought separately against their foes, they both helped each other survive and win through cooperation, Kamei knew Dan was the weakness of Orb, so she kept him busy while Orb distracted the weakness of Kamei, the two supported one another by suppressing the weakness of the other, which was the truest and most powerful team work there could ever be…
Through this entire battle the Vampires learned that strength was not everything. It was rather obvious that Orb wasn't as strong as Gustavo, her physical power would had never been as strong as him, nor even Dan. She was being overwhelmed by Dan while fighting against him, and he's supposed to only be a flashy fighter.
Orb kept herself at a good distance from her foes because she knew that despite her good movements, dexterity, and superhuman strength, she was still weaker than these two monsters, so she abused the thing she knew how to use the most, traps! Through traps, she was able to suppress these two absolute monsters and even defeated one of the strongest fighters that had showed up in this tournament yet, Gustavo.
Gustavo's might was simply in a completely different level, he was able to utilize his full strength as a Vampire and also a variety of magic capabilities with his cheat-like void power that could cancel every kind of magic, although Kamei found that it had a weakness which was that it couldn't possible consume runes as fast as Gustavo thought, this was canceled out when he awakened his power, so she was thankful that Orb kept this monster away from her fortress.
Orb had abused the power of her Traps to pull out an incredible victory against her foes which the others had not truly expected, she showed off the might that a being without the proper strength could have through incredibly trickiness!
Trap Magic was incredibly rare in this World, and even more the type that Orb utilized, which was more like an innate Magic Affinity, something completely out of this world. Trap Magic was only seen and made manually to protect magical areas or the hideouts of powerful sorcerers, but the Vampires here had never seen such amazing use of Innate Trap Magic before, it was as if Orb's element was Trap Magic! Was there such an element to begin with?
And well, this wasn't because it was her innate element or something, all Dungeon Cores had the power of using Trap Magic like this, Orb simply evolved into a Divine Dungeon Core that absorbed her own dungeon inside of her as if it were her Divine Realm, while using her soul outside of her as a physical flesh-like body.
Through this she was also able to exert the power of Trap Magic in the outside world, something that Dungeons obviously can't do, and due to being a dungeon with immense quantities of monster population and people inside constantly killing them or the monsters beating each other continuously, it made it possible for her to constantly harvest energy to use, making it as if she had endless energy and could conjure as much trap magic as she wanted without any restrictions…
Through this power she utilized all the Traps she knew about and even fused them together in what she called Trap Formations or Trap Arrays. She was even able to stealthily put Traps in the ground and activate them later to surprise enemies!
Orb was filled with amazing surprises, and she shocked the entire Vampire clan!
The one that they least expected was the one that ridiculed them the most…
