The Dream Saga - Chapter 64

Tom and Mammon were telling me about the incompatibility defect in devils and how it can be at a major disadvantage for me in the match. It was tensing for me because the opponents were far more stronger, but I was a bit of relieved too because I have learned some tactics against armed enemies. How smart of me, hehe .

Wake up Kai!! Wake up!!!!! You were almost about to lose your reputation because of being a lethargic creature. Yelled a little part of my matured mind.

While we were just talking about this, the anchor of the tournament announced the bloody starting.

“Welcome ladies and gentlemen to the ‘Champion of hell’ tournament in the beautiful city of Levlee.”

“I am Chiwsaj Qiwit, your Host for this wonderful tournament” The anchor was dressed in a funky outfit. He was jolly and energetic the public was hyped to watch him announce, maybe he was popular among them.

“You all look so hyped to me! And why shouldn’t be? We are here to watch the six legendry devil kings of the continent, fighting  till death to prove themselves best!”

“Fight till death! What the hell! Is it going to be messy, will there be bloodshed ??” as I heard him saying the word ‘fight till death,’ my eyes widened in shock and Tom who stood beside me, giggled with a small burst of laughter after looking me all shocked.

“Hey, don’t act like you were expecting it as a fight between two children.” He passed a smile and waved his head.

“The others will think that you are ignorant or something.”

“Ha-ha, it’d be an upper hand for me in the battle!” I winked at him with a mischievous smile.

“HEY! Don’t do that I feel as I am being sexually harassed by you!!” He shouted at me with a flushed face.

“Ha-ha alright, but don’t you think a fight till death is too much, like isn’t it going too far?” I queried to him.

“Um, how do I explain… ugh hey it’s better to let him explain. He’s getting paid for this.” He raised his eyebrows and aimed at the announcer with a little pat on my shoulder.

I looked at him through the glass wall that was in our room, and I saw many other new people sitting on thrones in a triangle that was repelling each corner. They seemed quite important to me, and out of  curiosity I called Tom with a slight push of my shoulder.

“Who are they? Are they the guests? Seems like they’re  ‘VIP’.”

“Can’t you keep your mouth shut for a moment ?? Yes they’re the guests. He will introduce them eventually. Keep patience.”

***

“Before we move onto our guests, I would like to introduce the ‘Red rules’ of this tournament.” He pulled out a scroll from his pocket; he inhaled a deep breath and spoke loudly.

“So, the rules of the tournament are followed severely,”

“One shall not attack his opponent on his important on main organs, such a hitting on the head or stabbing the heart or any kind of attack on the crotch.”

“The match will only end when one of the participant is on the ground and cannot fight anymore or when one of them has yields.”

“Rule no.3, no illegal moves can be used, only those moves and spells are allowed which are in the archives or directories.”

“And a final warning, any participant if caught breaking the rules will be disqualified from the tournament and his following house will be banned for next two tournaments.”

After finishing the rules scroll, he took a whiff of relief,  drank a bottle of water and burned the scroll with a snap of finger.

“Hey, I guess it’s a well-organized and planned tournament. I was being worried about nothing.” I pouted my lips and looked at Tom.

“Well yeah it is, see I told you to be patient and you will get all your answers.” He handed a can of energy drink he brought for me from the vending machine, he smiled and sipped his.

“So, Ladies and gentleman, today we have some great and honorable guest from our continent and from other continent as well!”

“Our first guest, from the continent ‘Hierest’ The leader of the heavenly angels, the patron of righteousness, one of the seven archangels ‘Michael.’ Please, everyone, stand up in his respect.”

As the announcer introduced the first guest, who was the leader of the angels of heaven. Everyone who was not paying attention suddenly got astound by name of him as he was some kind of alien.

“Hey!! Tom look at them, they all stood up at once.Wow I wasn’t expecting this.” I was shocked by the reaction of the crowd. I waved my hand at him to show him, but he did not gave me a response.

“Tom!! Tom!! Hey look at them, where are you lost man?” I rocked him a bit because he was lost in his own imagination, he was in some deep thought he had an expression on his face that was saying ‘it’s unbelievable.’

“Um.. ugh.. Yeah yeah

what were you saying?” He blinked twice and snapped back to the reality.

“Why are they so shocked? Look.” He furrowed his eyebrows and gave me a death stare.

“Are you really serious? Do you realize how much rare a sight of his is, it’s been like thirty years since anyone saw him. Even during the last war no one saw him, I don’t know why he is here as our guest.”

“Hey, calm down bro, I did not know he was that much important. Let’s see what else the announcer has to say.” I realized what I said was dumb and tried to change the topic as soon as possible.

***

“My greeting to you sir, we would like to talk to you more. We will be back after introducing our other guests.” The announcer bowed and turned towards the next guest.

“Ladies and gentlemen, let me introduce ya’ll to our next guest!”

“The General of the ‘Fallen angels’, The 4th world demon, ‘Azazel’.”

As he said his name, the whole stadium went numb not a single peep escaped.
