Chapter 217: Sparring II (10/20)

"OUCH!" Olivia shouted in pain

"'Ouch' my ass! You cultivate soul energy. You can fall off buildings and land on your head yet no receive a single scratch" I scoffed

"Uhm, actually depending on the building height, she would receive anything from a bump on the head to turning into a splatter on a sidewalk" Rose pointed out.

"Oh! You're right!" My eyes widened as if I had learned something that I did not know before while Olivia shuddered at the image of her splattering on the ground head first.

"Anyway, should we go inside now shouldn't we?" I asked as I walked forwards and inside before anyone could even answer.

Yuri who was too preoccupied with the rare smile she saw on Rose's face was now looking at me as if I was some kind of monster.

'She saved me, she saved Olivia, she made Rose smile... But she killed my task force...' Her expression was a lot more complicated now that she thought about what she was being put up with. 

After I walked in, I walked straight to a man behind a desk. For some reason, I was expecting to see the same brown woman that stayed at her desk snoring all day back in Lagua city, but that simply was not what was happening since this wasn't another case of Nurse Joy who for some reason has 20 sisters that look exactly like her all across every country in the world.

"Hello. Reservation under The Red Devil?" I asked 

"Ho Ho? Actually, she put it under her real name. If you don't know her name, you are not allowed inside. Just ask her to come in if you wou-" Before he could even finish speaking, he saw me point my index finger at her as a fire-bullet formed at the tip of my finger before shooting off like the sniper bullet it was. 

To my exact expectation, she immediately caught it as it dispersed into a puff of smoke within her iron grasp that would turn a T-rex into a squirming child.

She looked at me with a slightly disbelieving look before shaking her head in what seemed like a disappointment. The man on the other side of the desk however just saw his entire life flash before his eyes as I shot a bullet at someone he believed to be a merciless cold killer that would murder her own family if they were to get her in a bad mood.

*Woosh*

"Send her in please" She waved at the receptionist who immediately shivered and stuttered out "O-o-o-o-k-kay Mad-d-dam..."

Not wanting to go in alone, I flickered next to Olivia and grabbed her by the collar before running inside and into the hall.

After speaking to Olivia for a bit while we waited for Rose and Yuri to do their thing, 30 minutes passed quite easily. Only after I had made my mind up to check on the theme did they finally show up. The only difference now was that Yuri was finally wearing some battle appropriate clothing rather than her tight dress that would have made it extremely hard to run around in.

"Finally! I was getting bored" I kicked up and landed onto my feet.

"Well, Yuri has something to say to you, Lilith." Rose looked at Yuri with a nonchalant nod before walking away and sitting on a fallen pillar. The whole hall had the vibe and aesthetics of a destroyed and broken down greek temple that was at least 5 times the size of those that we see on earth. There were countless pillars lying around as if they had fallen, while others were either already fallen apart or we very close to that standard shown by the countless cracks on the several collapsed pillars.

"I'm listening?" I was more confused than anything, but since she wanted to speak before we had our spars, I was going to listen with as much fervor as possible to make sure that she can thank me, praise me and get the hell out of my sight as fast as possible.

"I know you saved me and I know I should be thankful that I am even alive right now" She sighed in exasperation while I grinned like an idiot behind my mask.

"But I don't appreciate that you killed my task force. Those guys were one of my best squads, they had families, they were good at their jobs and some even had children... Yet you killed them without thinking twice after just grouping them with the bastards who took advantage of them!" A cold aura began to radiate off Yuri and freeze the ground around her, yet there was a visible difference between the ground under me, behind me, and everywhere else.

"Yuri... I accept you challenge..." My smile behind the mask could have not been bigger

"This is not duel!" She muttered

"Huh?" If one were to look closely, one would be able to see question marks above my head.

"This is a battle between fighters. A battle between two people who have a problem with each other" I could see her visibly grit her teeth.

"For the record, I have nothing against you!" I shouted and waved under the strong icy winds that were carried by her icy aura. She had a fire that I had not seen in many, yet that was as cold as my azure flames.

"Hey! Before you two fight, I would like to re-enter your guild ID if you don't mind? Jut in case you can't walk after this fight" A smile blossomed on Rose's face.

The misty energy almost instantly stopped coming out of Yuri. After that, she looked up with an angry yet shy frown as she walked away and jumped onto one of the collapsed pillars, and sat on top of them. After she sat down, she clearly was unable to handle keeping in her bottled anger, causing a much strong tidal wave of misty ice aura to envelope the entire area with its pressuring aura.

Ignoring the icy glare on my back, I walked to one of the small podiums with a plain white crystal in the middle. After touching the crystal once, I felt energy enter my body, scan around before leaving it. Other than the icy cold glare pointed at my back from the icy witch, there were another two intense gazes pointed at me. One was Rose obviously trying to find out how I hid my elements, while the other was Olivia who was stressed about how much weaker she had become than me and the fact that she might not be able to catch up to me anymore.

"Results are in!" A robotic voice sounded within the hall.

"Results will no show on the holographic screen" Its voice echoed in the room again as a blue and transparent screen appeared in front of us.
