Chapter 37

" Well kids its been around 100,000 years since you were created and

you can finally take your old man in a fight, I guess Dao

comprehensions arent what a God is based on for nothing. After you two

started learning your respective Daos your improvements in fighting

have been immense. "

" It was all thanks to you dad if you hadnt helped us make those

totems all those years ago we wouldnt have started studying such

profound Daos. Of course we would still have started learning Daos

just not anything so powerful, at most we would have started learning

Wood Daos or something involving wood Daos. "

" Well dont sell yourselves short I just pushed you two in the right

direction, plus thanks to both of you I have started learning the same

Daos. Loretta and Deam have also started to learn the Momentum Dao

from your sister and Deam is getting a few hints of the Strength Dao

from your World Elephant. Gabrielle is learning some Space Daos from

you a bit as well. "

" Anyway Sande, Sud, you two want to do some more sparring? "

"" Lets do this/ You ready to be beat old man? ""

" Hehehe. "

And just like that all three of them started sparring like maniacs,

Solomon was swinging his hammer staff around like a child playing with

a toy sword. Skyddsud was summoning his totems and slamming them at

his dad, few of them would connect but the ones that did hit like a

truck. Skyddsande was summoning her totems in a repeated and an almost

wave like pattern, the reason for this unique way of attacking is due

to her comprehension into the Dao of Momentum. Its in this fasion that

Solomon had alot of trouble defending against his childrens attacks.

Sandes constant irritation and then Suds occasional brutal hits cause

Solomon alot of trouble.

If most Gods were to witness such a scene they would be immensely

surprised not only because of Solomons insane physical power but also

because of Sandes and Suds comprehension of Daos. One must know it is

extremely rare for non-Gods to start understanding Daos it is even

more so for created and not born races. It is also surprising that the

two children were comprehending such advanced Daos especially Suds

becuase his Dao combines Strength and World Daos.

The reason the two were able to comprehend their respective Daos is

because unless you are like Solomon constantly training his physical

abilities or Gabby always studying magic. Then unfortunately there

isnt much to do, except stufying your race skills, Daos, crafting

skills, or maybe if your lucky untrained skills. One other thing a

person could do is if they know Solomons Mastery trick they could

increase their talent endlessly.

Matter of fact Solomon does a mix, he puts himself in a trance using

Dream Magic that way he can practice Skills, magic, and hypnotically

continue his strength. Solomon also does his Mastery trick, meaning

that when his 1,000,000 years are up he could be the most talented

being alive. Though that is unlikely.

Back to the fight, currently Solomon was increasing the pressure on

his kids. What he did was he pulled out his own totem weapon, his

totem weapon was something de developed based on his children. The

totem is made of a mix of Elephants, Rhinos, Bears, ox, ants, beetles,

and any other physically strong creatures. The animals portrayed was

to help Solomon better his understanding of his strength Dao. The

function of the totem was for Solomon to provide himself mid range

coverage during battle. The totem was developed after Solomon started

having trouble fighting his kids.

With the addition of his totem Solomon started to put a hurtin' on his

kids, he focused Sande with the totem which effectively took her out.

With out his sisters coverage Skyddsud was easily and cleanly taken

out. Right after Solomon took out Sud Sande gave up since she knew she

couldnt handle her adopted dad alone.

While the three were talking about their spar, a similar situation

could be seen taking place on the other side of the island from

Solomon and his kids. Loretta was talking to her kids after sparring

with them. Though the spar they had was more the kids demonstrating

with Loretta giving them advice. Lorettas kids had advanced alot from

when she had first created them. Lorettas son Fuil seemed to take

after Solomon a bit despite Solomon having nothing to with Fuils

creation.

Fuil kept the general idea and physiology of a rhino short powerful

legs and thighs, but he changed the body to be like a large trunk with

massive spikes all over himself. Fuils fighting style involved ramming

into his enemies and then growing out sharp blood sucking spikes. He

could also change form to look like a normal tree, this is for ambush

and/or defense purposes. Fuil could grow spikes from the ground or

tree body in this form alot easier than in his rhino form.

Lorettas daughter Wahine still enjoyed finnesse fighting but she

changed her form to better suit such a way of fighting. Wahine made

her self have a short body with long willowy limbs. Whaine also had a

tail that could suck the blood of her enemies. Her favorite weapon to

use is a spiral pipe weapon that has long blades from top to bottom.

This weapon allows her to attack from any direction without the use of

immense technique, the weapon was made by Pater after Loretta

commisioned him.

Deam and Gabby were putting there children through similar situations.

The reason for all of the prep was because the annual sparring

competition between the younger generation was soon. Over the last

100,000 years there were countless spars between the youth in the

dimension. Though Solomon and his group were rarely challenged and

when they were it was a challenge with rules attatched, formation

challenges, crafting battles, most firepower, etc.... But despite the

near 100% win rate Solomon and his group were still challenged at

least once during the annual competition. The reason for this is that

the group alwayes gave really good rewards for being beaten. Most of

the time the group gave specail plants grown in Solomon and Lorettas

world. Which despite so much time had still not been named.

So after such an amazing win rate the group decided to involve their

kids, they figured itd give the other youngsters a chance. The parents

even decided to increase the anti for the battles.They thought this

would be a good chance for the kids to get more battle experience

against someone other than the parents and the other children.

Due to this the parents have been training their kids hard with

sparring, studying, and pure working out. With such hardcore training

the kids advanced dramatically.

After a week it was finally time for the spar, each of the kids

couldnt hold in their excitement. They couldnt wait to fianlly reveal

their power to someone other than their friends and family. For the

first battle it was Deams son Fear going against one of the God

Monkeys.

When Fear was across from the God Monkey named Jack he did a soldiers

salute his mother taught him and then took a battle stance. Fear

decided to take a defensive stance since God Monkeys were known to be

fierce attacker which meant Fear knew he didnt have to take the lead.

And as Fear predicted right as the match started Jack launched himself

at Fear. Fear did a jab with his spear right into Jacks abdomen, Jack

decompressed him abdomen and tried to get a hit on Fear. Unfortuantely

for him Fear squatted under the staff and after dodging the hit he did

another jab right into Jacks stomach area. After the jab Fear followed

up by stepping forward once and then performing an upwards sweep, this

hit Jack in the chin which disoriented him. Fear would of course not

follow up with another hit so he did an overhear smash right onto

Jacks chest. At this point it was clear that Fear would win, so Jack

conceded.

The next battle was between Deams daughter Rean and one of the Golems.

Rean was very nervous because this Golem, Sans, was a direct counter

towards her. Golems didnt usually fight close quarters despite the

fact that their bodies are usually very sturdy. Golems often focused

on formations and enchantments which meant they like distance battles

which sadly arent Reans speciality. Before the match started Rean did

her soldiers salute and then she pulled out a small shield a bit

larger than a human males chest.

When the match started Rean did the opposite of her brother and

charged toward her enemy. The Golem seemed to expect that though and

jumped backwards himself, not before he laid a trapping formation

though. The formation was a very basic and common one that forms

chains trapping anybody who stepped on it. Rean sadly didnt know this

and stepped on the trap, she was instantly trapped. It was at that

moment everybody watching knew she would lose. And like everybody

though Rean lost soon after. After losing Rean came down from the

Arena and the parents and children could see that she was barely

holding in her tears. Deam seeing that walked up to her and embraced

her in a big ol' hug. Deam even said some consoling words which was

unusual for her.

" Its alright Rean, you challenged one of the most talented Golems in

this generation who just so happened to be a counter to you. Besides

this was all a learning experience now you know not be do direct when

facing formation masters. "

" Thanks mom, I will practice alot and then challenge that Golem

again. Next time Ill beat him I promise. "

" I believe you sweetie. "

After that it was Gabbies childrens turn. Both Nathair and Boireann

challenged Ancient Dragons, they did this to prove themselves. Nathair

and Boireann both knew they were based around Dragons, this kind of

upset them and made them want to challenge such a powerful race.

Nathair was the first to challenge, he did this so that his sister

would get a general of the dragons abilities.

Nathair doesnt have any pre battle rituals so when he got on stage he

just silently prepared himself for the impending battle. The Ancient

Dragon, Slim, was the same way. When the battle started Nathair

created a massive tornado that occupied the entire platform, he also

infused Void Magic into the tornado. This single tornado started to

rip the space it occupied, this caused worry among everbody watching.

After a while with no reaction from the Ancient Dragon Solomon stopped

the match and negated the tornado. When the tornado stopped everybody

saw Slim lying on the floor, they could barely tell he was alive. This

completely stumped all the viewers watching the battle. After everbody

thought for a bit they just assumed that Slim was arrogant and didnt

prepare any defences. This gave Boireann great confidence for her

battle.

Boireann copied her brother by just preparing herself for the upcoming

battle and not doing anything fun or fancy. She instead started making

her Mana flow in a specific patten similar to an Earth Wall spell.

When the match started Boireann summoned a massive earth wall that

went from one edge of the arena to the other. Boireann did this

instead of being aggresive like her brother because A. her enemy would

be prepared and B. aggresion didnt fit Reanns fighting style.

After Reann raised the wall she summoned a World Turtle, World

Elephant, and then she summoned a world to go on top. This was Reanns

specialty it was a mix of her Summoning Magic, Animal Magic, and World

Magic, she did all this to summon a powerful animal to fight for her.

This summoning trifecta can block multiple enemies while Reann

prepared other magics which is exactly what she did. While Reanns

enemy was focused on her summon Reann started creating holes around

the Arena to trip up her enemy, the holes had blunt spikes. Now all

Reann had to do was wait and her enemy would eventually trip up, but

that isnt what Reann did at all. She instead started summoning other

animals, all of which attacked her enemy.

And like Reann hoped her enemy couldnt handle all the enemies and

tripped into one of the holes landing on the spikes. Everbody watching

knew that if the spikes hadnt been blunt the Ancient Dragon would have

been skewered. It was like that that the battle ended. The next few

battles went in a similar direction. Lorettas Son destroyed the one of

the Fist Boars that was around the same side as him, though it was an

extremely tough battle. Lorettas daughter challenged a fairy that had

a similar fighting style to herself, it was an extremely close battle

but the fairies more professional rapier training gave it the

advantage. Loretta was the saddest one after that battle since it was

her fault Wahine didnt have better rapier training. Solomons childrens

battle was different, it was Skyddsande and Skyddsud against a Golem,

a fairy, and a God Monkey.

The reason for this is because Solomon wanted to really challenge his

children and a challenge he got for them. The battle started off with

the Golem laying a trapping formation. This is to prevent Sande or Sud

from getting up close. They assumed that Solomons children would be

close combat fighters like their father especially because Solomon is

the best CC ( Close Combat ) fighter in their dimension. This was a

big mistake that Sande and Sud played on.

Sud pretended to try getting close, and right when he was in the right

spot to hit the Fairy Sud summoned his totems to smash into the Golem.

This knocked the Golem out of the Arena and gave enough surprise for

Sande to attack and take care of the Dragon. Sande trapped the Dragon

in an attacking formation, something that can provide different

effects depending on how someone attacks. The attacking formation

Sande used can trap someone while still providing constant attacks.

With the Dragon taken care of Sud had plenty of time to easily take

down the fairy. Surprisingly such an expectedly tough battle ended

cleanly and easily.

With the children completeing all their battles the parents took them

all to celebrate. The party was something small, with Loretta cooking

some fod up out of animals grown in her and Solomons world. Solomon

also had some tunes playing, as well as a few party games. The group

partied for twelve hours straight with drinking, dancing, and general playing around.
