The first fights had begun, and the combatants quickly eliminated their adversaries, the intense battles between powerful monster pets generated a lot of adrenaline in the public, as they all cheered for the winners. After exactly five fights, the fights including us finally began. I was the first one.
My match? There was a green-haired guy that had the face of a goblin and a very weird smile.
"Hehe, you're ready for it?" He asked. His name was Miyon, and he was supposedly a specialist in monsters that could conjure curses.
Curses… I guess I'll bring Ginseng.
The referee quickly announced the start of the battle, as I quickly summoned Ginseng out of my divine realm, the enormous Radish stood up with his little legs, it was almost five meters tall, and this was his reduced size form. The green haired man was intimidated, but he didn't gave up.
"Go, Curse Casting Purple Jewel Bat!"
FLAAASH!
Suddenly, a two-meter-big bat made completely out of purple jewels came out from a purple jewel from his left hand, the enormous bat was flying in the air by flapping its wings repeatedly and incessantly.
"Use All Damage Curse, Defense Curse, Bind, Chain!" Laughed the green-haired man, as Ginseng remained still. The bat unleashed several rays of darkness and purple-colored flames all over my giant radish.
FLUOOOOSSSSHHH!
And then Ginseng was cursed. Apparently this reduced his damage, defense, and Bind and Chain chained him in place. Wow, an interesting strategy, it would certainly net him a lot of wins.
And then he suddenly changed monsters without even waiting a second, bringing out something else.
"Accursed Black Jewel Golem, come!"
TRUUUMM…!
From a black jewel on his other hand, a giant golem made of black jewels emerged. His enormous size hit the ground, making everything around it tremble.
"GRUUOOHH!"
The titan of 4 meters tall roared, as it quickly began to run towards Ginseng. The man laughed as he ordered his golem to crush Ginseng into the ground now that it was cursed.
"DIE!" Laughed the man, as the golem's enormous hand reached Ginseng. "What are you going to do now, newbie? I've never seen your face in my life, I bet you cannot even counter curses! This is such a pleasure to crush newbies that don't have a fucking idea about curses! Hahahah- Ah?"
BOOOOMMM!!!
The fist of the golem hit Ginseng but he was unmoving like a mountain. Ginseng's slit eyes looked at the golem, as he suddenly pointed his hands at him, like a sumo wrestler, he gave it a small push.
TRUUUMM!!!
"G-GRUOOHHHH?!"
CRAAASH!
The Golem suddenly felt the enormous force of Ginseng, my weakest monster, as the force was not only in the impact, but life and nature quickly began to sprout from the inside out, making vines, trees, and grass grow over the golem's joints, stopping its ability to move!
<br/>"A-Ahhh… I-Impossible… No!!!"
The man cried stupidly, brining out another monster, it wasn't the bat this time but it was like a leopard made of red jewels. I guess he was a jewelry fan or something.
"Destroy that thing, Fiery Jewel Leopard!" Cried the man desperately, pointing his index finger at my Ginseng.
"Ginseng, stop it." I said.
"FOO!"
TRUUM!
Ginseng hit the ground and generated a Earthquake, throwing the monster off-balance, and then, a sinkhole appeared, burying it there as he threw dirt over it.
"…"
The man and everyone else stayed looking at how ridiculously I managed to defeat him, I barely did any damage to them because I knew they would explode into pieces if I did, and I would be disqualified because of that, so I had to find smart ways to defeat them.
"I-Impossible! T-This is cheating! No way in hell I would lose like this!!! W-What the heck was this?!" the man fell over the floor pathetically.
"It is fine, you will be able to do pretty well in the next tournament." I said.
"S-Shut the fuck up!" Cried the man, as he suddenly summoned his bat and ordered it to attack me.
"KILL HIM! CURSE HIM! I won't let you destroy my dreams!" He roared, as the giant bat flew towards me at a rapid speed, but I stared rather boringly at the jewel bat approach.
"CRYYEE!"
The bat suddenly gave a cry of fear, as I had unleashed a slight amount of my aura and directed it towards the bat. In a second, the bat cried in fear and then fell to the ground, foam started to come out of its mouth… Maybe I went a bit too hard.
"W-Wha…?!" The man looked at his bat, as guards quickly came to bring him away.
"For attempting to assassinate your opponent, you're disqualified, well, you also lost so I guess you're disqualified already!"
"Also, you're coming with us for a bit, crazy guy."
"W-Wait! My monsters! Let me retrieve them at least! Aaaggh!"
What a crazy man.
At the end, a group of people moved the unconscious monsters away into a nursery where they would be healed and taken care of, they were not the ones in fault for having such an insane master after all.
"T-The winner is Frank and is Giant Radish Ginseng!" Said the Referee, as everyone cheered a bit for me, although some felt like I was way too boring, sorry for disappointing you guys.
"T-That was amazing! You really held back in there!" Said Axitl.
"Well done." Said Gwendolyn.
"It was obvious sir Frank would win!" Said Miriam.
"A-Amazing… I wish I could be as confident as Sir Frank…" Sighed Arthurious.
"Just believe in your monster, Arthurious, things will eventually come together without you realizing it, just believe in Blackie and do your best." I said with a smile.
"O-Oh… Okay!" Said Arthurious.
And right after I said that to him, the referee announced the next battle, Arthurious versus his brother.
"And now, two royalties are fighting it off in the tournament! We have the honor to announce the grandchildren of the Emperor, Arthurious and Hectarious! Who of the two will win this match between siblings?!"
