130 King's Ladder part 2
The name of one challenger was selected who jumped in joy because he didn't need to participate in the duel and reveal his cards, the battle started between the first two challengers.
One was a knight with a circular shield and short sword, while the other was a swordsman with a roman sword. The fight lasted for some time before the swordsman use a strange ability to slash the shield of the opponent in half.
The knight surrendered when he saw that he couldn't win, After that, a duel took place between a mage and an archer. The duels continued till all five challengers were selected.
After the final five challengers were decided, It was now time for the real duels.
"Everyone the final moment which you all were waiting for is about to start; the challengers would battle against rankers one by one. Are you guys excited like me?" said the commentator.
The first battle was between Lalit and Chaya; they both entered the Battle ring and stood on two opposite corners. Lalit looked at her and said, "How have you been bitch? Despite being a girl I never liked you. I never knew why, but it looks like it was due to the disgusting smell that comes from you."
Chaya still had the same expression on her face, not getting intimidated by Lalit at all, but Lalit was not in the mood to stop; he continued, "How many months have passed she you took a bath? At first, I always thought ghouls were the ugliest being; congratulations, after seeing you I find them normal now."
Chaya wanted to say something, but she stopped herself; Lalit was not someone who would have a sensible talk; she had betrayed the guild and was an enemy in his eyes.
The battle started, and Lalit started approaching Chaya and attacked her with his sword. Chaya used stealth to disappear before attacking Lalit from the back.
Just when her attack was about to land on Lalit's back, he left his sword and put his hand in his pocket to take out a ball; before Chaya could understand his motives, he used his shield to block the attack.
"I knew a Backstabbing bitch like you would attack me from behind," said Lalit with a mocking tone before throwing the ball in his hand towards Chaya, who had jumped back when her attack was missed. The ball hit her face, and a black liquid came out of it and covered her face ruining her cute appearance.
Lalit laughed and wore a mask before saying, "A disgusting person like you deserve to have their face painted black" Lalit picked up his sword and attacked Chaya again.
Chaya touched her face to check what happened, when she saw her hand covered in a creepy black substance, she said "You have crossed the line Lalit; how dare you to treat me this way. Be prepared now I will not go easy on you."
"Who wants your forgiveness? I am not afraid of you at all" said Lalit as he charged at Chaya.
Chaya entered the stealth state again before attacking Lalit from multiple directions, her all attacks were deadly and silent but to her and everyone's surprise Lalit was able to defend all of them easily while also counter-attacking her.
The battle continued, but Chaya was not able to land a single hit; Lalit made her run out of a big chunk of her mana and stamina before five minutes were over, and he had to leave.
Despite not being able to defeat her there was a big smile on his face; he came out of the arena, removed his mask, and said, "I am putting this mask here; you can easily counter her stealth by smelling her disgusting smell. You only need to pay me 100 contribution points to use it in the battle."
Everyone was speechless when they heard it; even Chaya was flared up. She was breathing fast and digging her nails into her other hand. This bastard was too much for her to handle.
"For the audience who might have a thought that is it allowed, according to rules, the exchange of equipment is allowed. This is a really nasty plan because Chaya has to fight five battles back to back." said the commentator.
Shreya had a smile on her face as she watched Lalit. "Didn't I say earlier that this junior is really interesting? He used such a usual way to make an assassin helpless."
Even Rishi didn't know what to say; Lalit was always a guy like that; he was the best of friends and worst of enemies. When Rishi and other members decided not to lose their ranks to take revenge, Lalit was ready to risk it all to make the life of Chaya and Bhanu miserable.
After this battle, the second challenger was arrogant; he thought that there was no need to use such methods to defeat Chaya, so he challenged her without using the mask, but he soon became victim to all the humiliation and frustration Chaya was going through.
She stabbed him multiple times in a stealth state, and in the end, he fainted from blood loss. When the third challenger saw it, he decided to get Lalit's mask, but Lalit had something else in his mood.
"That bastard deserved it; I told him to use my special mask, but no, these people have to satisfy their ego. Now I will charge 150 points; don't blame the second challenger if you want to," he said with a displeased tone.
The third challenger was in a dilemma but at last, he decided to use Lalit's mask; he was easily able to counter Chaya and even injured her a little, but she outsmarted him using 'an assassin ability that helped her switch places with a clone.
She first destroyed the mask and even stepped on it to crush it to powder before eliminating the third challenger. She even looked at Lalit with a mocking smile on her face, but to her surprise, he was disappointed but not enraged at all.
When the fourth challenger came, he took out two masks and said, " Limited offer two masks in 250 points" The fourth challenger thought for a moment before deciding to defeat her without any help.
"One more idiot," said Lalit.
The fourth participant was the strongest of all challengers till now; he gave a good fight and even left some wounds on Chaya but in the end, he too was defeated.
The fifth participant was most cunning, he decided to purchase the two masks, but Lalit was not in a good mood; he said "300 points" despite such an extravert price; the fifth participant just smiled and paid Lalit and took his two masks.
