The third duel

The third duel

"So you want to take this test. Are you sure?" said the receptionist

"I'm sure. My name is Sky Leffen and I'm sixteen years old."

"She writes his name and age on a paper and then said, "Wait here until duelist Richard Desiree comes to get you."

He is sitting on a chair now and see other people are as nervous as him.

[I still can't figure out how do use my powers. But I can replicate sword techniques for some reason.]

A girl with long black hair entered the main hall.  It's the rank four duelist Isana.

[I need to talk to her before he meet Desiree.]

"Isana!" Sky shouted

The girl looks coldly at him and said "What do you want?"

"I need to talk you in private."

"You can say it here?"

"No please come with me for a second." He leads her towards an empty spot and explained how he tricked Desiree.

"I won't help you, I just tell him the truth."

[The worst case scenario is happening. They can charge me for theft and disqualify me instantly. Technically It's Vaan that use it the stone to open chest.] 

He catches a glimpse of Richard and thought

[Speaking of the devil!]

"Are you ready?" Richard ask

"Ah, Winterfield! I got something to ask you." before he finish speaking Sky said "Ask her later, fight me first.

Isana ignored them and left. "You got lucky she just left. I will ask her about this after finishing the fight with you."

They step in the arena. The supervisor is sitting above watching and times the duel.

"This is my weapon!" He took a huge axe out behind the pillar. 

"Ultimatum activate!

His left eye is changing again. [Again this feeling. I'm stronger and faster than my previously fight. ]

"You got the infinite eye!" exclaimed Richard

"Explain how my eye works."

[He doesn't know how it works?]

"Duel start now!" shouted the supervisor

"I tell you after the duel!"

"Earth Slice" He moves his axe and attack the ground. The slash moves towards Sky but he dodged  however the slash changed direction and hits him.

[I can't redirect this attack either.]

Sky is bleeding now he rushed towards Richard and attack him with the dagger. "Crosscut!" He performs a horizontal, a vertical, a diagonal slash together trying aiming for his body. He countered with his own attack "Wind slash".  The ground is split in several pieces, the pillars are cut by the slashes and cuts from Sky and Richard.

More and more people are coming and start to watch the duel. Even Isana is watching now. 

Sky's attacks become fiercer and fiercer and he moves extremely fast with his hands. Richard is matching him blows for blows. 

"HAAAAH! screamed Sky 

[He gives me no chance to counterattack!] thought Richard

"Only ten minutes left!" shouted the supervisor

[I need to my use left hand!]  Richard instantly switches the axe with his other hand.

"Berserker blow!" shouted Richard. The attack forced Sky thirty meters back. 

He throws his axe towards Sky. The axe rotates faster and faster until it hits something. Sky blocked the attack with his dagger. The dagger breaks in pieces.

"I got no weapon!" He sees the axe on the ground and picks it up.

[The axe feels light.] 

"He got the axe. I should have brought mefaris in this duel."

Suddenly he heard someone shouting "Richard catch!" Someone in the audience throws him a golden axe.

The entire axe is gold and has the shape of a dragon. "Thank you Daniel."

Sky is waiting for him to attack. [It's you that need to win within 20 minutes.] 

Richard jumps into the air and said "air slash".

[What the fuck?] Sky barely dodged the attack but the entire arena is split into two.

"That monstrous strength! No, It's his weapon." [He can keep doing this attack over and over again. I need to attack him.]

Sky runs and jumps over to the other side of the  arena. "Berserker blow!" The blow forces Sky back again and he nearly into a pit. He has one hand holding the edge of the arena and the other hand holding the axe.

He pulls himself back. However  he sees Richard jumping in the air and use air slash again.

"Air slash!" At this critical moment Sky jumps in the air and performs the same attack! Sky is beneath Richard so his air slash is aimed above.

The two attack collided and a white flash appeared. 

"Twenty minutes is over!"

"I hereby declare that Sky Leffen pass the test and from now on he is a duelist!"
