The deafening silence lasted for a whole five seconds as Vita walked back to Diana's side. Even she was stunned at how quickly Vita had managed to move. There were some few people in the audience who quickly regained their.
Someone from the separated area, where the member of royalty, started to clap their hands. This broke the trance everyone was in and a massive amount of applause was released. The people roared at the speed which Vita had won. Even the announcer had to clear his throat before he started to talk.
"W-what an absolutely crushing victory! In my twenty-five years of working here, I have never seen such a merciless finish! Even the weakest of would-be students should be able to defend themselves, but this poor fellow wasn't even allowed to blink!" Diana looked at Vita in awe, but quickly pretended to be Stoic and calmly walked towards a gate parallel to the one she had entered the arena through.
But there were some who weren't so happy with Diana's quick victory.
Diana probably didn't see it, but there was a small group of annoyed looking teens who were giving her the stink-eye. Vita could hear them, despite the fact they were whispering to each other.
"Seems like that Neville didn't win his round." One of them whispered while looking at Diana. The disdain obvious in his eyes.
"Cliff, you are good with your words. Go over there and destroy her. If you manage to mess with her head, it will probably make her lose faster!" One of the teens with glasses and red hair said to one with long blonde hair.
"But what about that beast that she got. Earl, you saw what it did to Neville. What if it does that to me?" Whoever this Cliff was, he didn't seem all too happy to approach the girl with the big creature next to her. A teen with a shaved head patted Cliff on the shoulder with a sinister smile on his face.
"Don't worry about it. Speaking to each other is okay, but hurting other would-be students isn't. If either she or that thing harms you, they get disqualified. The worst she can do is cry about you hurting her feelings." This time, all three of them smiled.
"Alright, Noel, get off me. But both of you owe me some gold after this!" Cliff shook off Noels hand and walked over to Diana. When he got close enough, he cleared his throat to grab Diana's and started to speak to her.
"Hello, are you Diana Wolfheart?" He asked. But before she got to answer, he continued speaking.
A case of theft: this story is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.
"Either way, shouldn't you go back to your mother and get some mother's milk? Clearly you never got any based of how short you are." Cliff said with a condescending tone. Diana was blindsided by the sudden insult. She didn't even get a chance to properly think as Cliff continued.
"And what's up with your pet. Are you too weak to fight on your own, so you need the help of some primitive creature to fight for you? Pathetic. And you are supposed to be a noble." He continued his verbal assault, not giving Diana a chance to talk back. To Vita, however, this was quite boring.
Really, don't tell me this is the best this world has to offer in terms of trash talking. Hell, I could probably come up with something more brutal than short jokes. How is Diana taking this, anyway?
!?
Using one eye, Vita saw that Diana was at the brink of crying! Despite the fact she is almost 17, she has never been in a scenario like this before. Especially in one where someone was attacking her with words. She was clearly trying to hold the tears back, but all that did was to intensify Cliff's verbal attack.
Oh, god-damn kid! It isn't even that bad! But looking at her, it would be super awkward if she did actually start to cry. Fuck it, I haven't used my vocal cords in forever. Better now than never.
The verbal attack continued uninterrupted. Some people who were there before Diana and some who entered after her listened to what was being said.
The tall, muscular would-be student arrived with a bag of nuts when he saw what was going on and didn't like what he heard. He wasn't the only one, either. There were a few other would-be students who seemed to think the same thing, but none of them had acted yet. Even Earl started to feel bad, but he quickly buried that feeling. Just as a guard was going to stop Cliff, Vita's mouth moved.
A deep raspy sound escaped Vita's mouth, as if dozens of different creatures were being choked inside of Vita. The noise shocked everyone who heard it, even the guards were startled. Cliff's words were stuck in his throat because of the noise, and before he got to continue, Vita started to speak.
"Could you stop speaking, your voice reminds me of someone having an iron rod shoved down their penis. And your hair looks like the hair hanging off a cows' vagina. Not only that, I'm pretty sure I saw your mother getting fucked by a couple of pigs and dogs. She sure seemed to enjoy eating their shit as well. Your mother is a whore fucking animals and your father loves to watch it happen." Despite Vita's voice sounding so strange, every word was audible and understandable. If Cliffs words were like daggers, Vita's words were like a bomb going off. Never has anyone heard such barbaric and disgusting words being uttered by such a creature.
Cliffs face was changing colours, from red to purple to green. In the end, he fainted from the words alone. The others who wished to help Diana were stunned as well from Vita's words. Earl, who at first felt bad for Diana, started feeling bad for the passed out Cliff. Only the muscular would-be student didn't react like the others. As a matter of fact, he was silently giggling to himself. Even holding a hand over his mouth to try and muffle the giggle, spilling nuts on the floor.
