Chapter 1257 Decline
Author's Note: Unedited Chapter
--------------
"Ozious Captain is also a force to reckon with," Aildris stated. ðððð²ðððð©.ð¬ðð
Everyone was well aware of the abilities of the Ozis by now. The one they were mostly known for was their imprinting ability.
The moment they managed to imprint on any energy successfully, that energy would become theirs. They would be able to manipulate the energy as they wished afterwards.
They could increase or decrease its size, make it more powerful or snuff it out completely. Whatever they wished to do with the energy that they had successfully imprinted on was up to them.
This was why Captain Doxta only initiated melee attacks at first. He was trying to make sure Captain Vilax didn't successfully imprint on the energy of his attacks.
Captain Vilax speed of imprinting had shocked the entire crowd of spectators since some of Captain Doxta attacks should have hit before he successfully imprinted on them.
< Vilax Chifure (Planet Ozious) Wins >
< 1000 Points Attained >
Chatter! Chatter! Chatter! Chatter!
The two captains battle had been quite intense and lasted longer than most of the fights. The crowd wasn't surprised at how long this took since it was a battle between two captains. Afterall they were captains for a reason.
After the destruction on the stage calmed, Captain Doxta's unconscious and battered body could be seen laying in the crater that the stage had been turned into.
The battle had ended in loss for Planet Sinxtro.
The spectators continued to watch the battles unfold in this batch. At this moment only a few others were left before the batch would come to an end.
Another intense battle was playing out between two participants and one of them happened to be a Draconet. The Draconet had been challenged by the other participant and from the looks of things, the challenger was losing.
Gustav of course kept gathering information and insight as he watched the ongoing battles on every stage.
He turned to stare in the direction of the Dracons as he noticed something.
'Looks like he's not out of the woods... Endric did quite the number on him,' Gustav said internally as he noticed Muvierd receiving treatment. Muvierd happened to still be unconscious.
At this moment Gustav suddenly locked eyes with Captain Strum.
Thrrriizzzhhh~
It was like streaks of electricity going off as an unfathomable pressure suddenly spread across the vicinity.
The spectators and every of the participants felt the tension in the air like a physical presence as these two glared at each other intensely.
No words were uttered but they were both saying the same thing to each other with the gaze of intensity.
'Soon!'
With this they both looked away at the same time and tranquility soon returned to the vicinity.
Gustav hadn't forgotten what Strum did to Falco and still partly blamed him for Falco's current state while Captain Strum couldn't forget the humiliation he felt at the hands of Gustav.
Their initial battle had been shortlived but nothing was going to stop them from facing each other here...
Time went by very quickly and soon the third day of the Versus Battle Challenge arrived.
During this time frame every single participant had gotten the opportunity to be a part of the batch and choose their opponent at least twice.
Gustav had won both his matches and didn't try to challenge Captain Strum yet. He had lesser points so he was trying to gather enough to challenge without getting turned down.
Captain Strum also hadn't challenged him yet as well for unknown reasons. Since the first challenge from Navira, no one had challenged Gustav.
It was unknown if it was due to fear of losing or other reasons, but participants didn't try to challenge captains that led teams that were in the top hundred.
Gustav's battle with Navira just showed that the captains were in a different league entirely especially since Gustav beat Navira while barely making use of any abilities.
Gustav had amassed around three thousand points extra from the three battles he had won so far.
Today was the day of disqualification and every planetary group were doing their best to amass as much points as they could before the disqualification period arrived.
Sheila's turn arrived for a batch once more and she made her way to the stage.
Gustav didn't bother telling Sheila who to challenge. The small framed girl was way more powerfult than her appearance depicted.
'She's still holding back but she should be fine for now till we arrive at the final stages of IYSOP,' Gustav said internally.
("Her reality warping ability is stronger than that of the Sacred Jewel... I think she might be afraid of letting it all out which is why her body subconsciously created a restriction on her abilities,") The system analysed.
'That seems logical but we never truly know.... I won't push her into letting go if she doesn't want to. Everyone is capable enough to cover for each individual shortcomings...' Gustav said internally.
("Wouldn't you like to see what she could do if she wasn't restricted though?") The system questioned.
'As curious as I am, would rather not risk her losing control and putting anyone in Jeopardy,' Gustav watched as Sheila battle began with who she had challenged.
She had challenged a participant from a top hundred planet who was considered fairly strong and had acquired a good amount of points.
The moment the battle begin, the crowd of spectators marked the challenge as lost.
Sheila was a very playful person and her mouth was usually ever running like a broken tap. This made it worse for the challenged as she played with him while also verbally brutalising their existence.
"Big brother kikikiki you need to try harder than that," She voiced while waving her hand across the air.
Cracks appeared across the stage like reality was a broken mirror causing the attacks in the fireballs in mid air to fall to the ground and break to pieces.
The crowd was astonished as they stared at Sheila unleash her reality warping abilities over and over again.
Her figure would reflect all over the stage on the broken glass like vicinity, making it confusing to tell where she really is.
The opponent would churn blazing firestorms all around, only for it to hit the mirror like air and smash to pieces, revealing that no one was there.
"I'm right here big brother kikiki,"
Bang!
"Right here,"
Bang!
"Right here,"
Bang!
"Not there silly kikiki,"
Bang!
"You missed again,"
Bang!
Her opponent felt like he was going insane the longer the battle went on. He had not been able to deal a single damage on Sheila yet she could harm him at anytime she willed.
Sheila suddenly appeared from behind him with her body flying across the air. Her opponent only noticed when it was too late.
Her hand was already wrapped around his face as she sped forward while laughing maniacally. The glass air up ahead transformed into solid which she smashed his face into intensely, dragging him across the stage.
Gustav shook his head as he watched Sheila totally traumatise her opponent.
'She's too playful...' Gustav knew Sheila was immature and saw this as fun.
She wasn't actually an uncaring person, she just found the current situation to be a game which was was having fun engaging in.
Gustav focused on the other matches in different stages since he was well aware of how this one will turn out.
Soon enough Sheila opponent surrendered. He didn't lose consciousness or get beaten to a pulp yet but he knee this was a battle he couldn't win so he made the smart choice and gave up.
The spectators couldn't blame him. It would just be more humiliating if the battle had continued.
More batches went by and a couple of participants from earth got challenged in soke of these batches.
So far not a single earth participant had lost but this was mostly due to the fact that other participants were barely challenging them. Earth had only accepted five challenges so far. Three of them were from strong planets which Gustav, Yuhiko and Phinx had taken care of.
The other two were fairly powerful planets and had been handled by Ria and Fildhor. Other times when earth participants were to challenge another planet, Gustav had made sure they challenged someone they could win against.
It was unknown how long the winning streak would last since more weaker planets were getting disqualified, leaving only more powerful planets as challenge options.
However, Gustav wasn't too bothered since he knew they still had lots of points overall. He'd just have to play it safe.
Thrrrihhh~
"Hmm," Gustav mumbled as he stared at the panel before Teemee.
"This guy from Planet Xionsi just challenged me... Orimon," Teemee nearly chuckled as he voiced out.
"They must still bear a grudge," He added.
Gustav stared at the stage where the transparent skinned figure with a greenish colored face, stood with a nefarious looking expression.
He happened to be throwing a fierce glare at the earth's participants area, showing that he meant business.
"Decline," Gustav voiced.
"Huh? Wait... what?" Teemee's expression turned from smiley to confused as be voiced out.
"Decline," Gustav repeated himself.
