We ended up in the hall of the Teronette Mansion. It's not like your ordinary hall, because it has something to do with that special kind of duel they're conducting. It's like a very large volleyball court with straight lines and boxes on the floor but there's no net. And there are lots of white rubber b.a.l.l.s scattered all around the field.

About twenty maids that have the same black dress as Emily are here to watch the fight, and all of them are cheering for their Master Zenaida.

"Master Zenaida Teronette, trample that b.a.s.t.a.r.d! Beat her! And feed on her fles.h.!.+" The maids said in sync.

There's only two of us who are cheering for our adorable maid. Rikkun and I… And Rikkun are cheering Emily just because the G.o.ddess Core is at stake.

"Go, Miss Emily! I know you can do it!" I shouted out loud.

"Prove me that you are useful, Emily!" Rikkun cheered.

Zenaida loudened her voice as she made an important remark.

"I'll explain the rules. The Teronette Duel is a one-versus-one dodgeball fight for girls, and the one who loses all their clothes win."

"Yes." Emily smiled. "I'll be sure to strip all your clothes, Master Zenaida!"

"Fwahahahahahahaha!!!" Zenaida laughed.

"E-Eh?" Rikkun and I muttered as we cluelessly tilted our heads. I don't see the connection between dodgeball and stripping. And I don't think a male like Rikkun should be watching this fight.

"Let's start!" Both of the contenders shouted!

Prrrrrrt!!! The whistle has been blown!

Both fighters ran into the farthest corner of the field and picked a rubber ball, and then tossed it to their opponents! Zenaida tumbled to evade the attack! Emily spun like a dancing princess to avoid the incoming projectile! They're both good and graceful!

As Zenaida tumbled, she swiftly picked a ball with her left and launched it immediately to the poor maid, who was caught off-guard! Bam! It was a direct hit to Emily's shoulder!

"Kyah!"

Upon impact, the ball exploded, releasing some kind of acid that melted a part of the maid's clothes! Now Emily is exposing her white shoulders!

"Fwahahaha!" Zenaida laughed in an aristocratic manner. "That's strike one, you b.a.s.t.a.r.d maid!"

"Grrrr…." There was a hint of tears in Emily's eyes.

"So shameful! You can no longer look at your friends' eyes anymore!" Zenaida continued to tease.

"I…" Emily held her heart. "I no longer have any shame! I don't care if Master Alaric will see me buck naked! The most important thing is that I'm fighting you right here, right now!"

Suddenly, Rikkun turned his back and started to walk away slowly.

"R-Rikkun!?"

"I really think I shouldn't be watching this fight." He coldly said.

"W-Wait!" I pulled his arm. "Emily is fighting for you! At least watch her struggle!"

"So… You want me to watch girls until one of them is fully naked?"

That really put some thought in me. I don't want Rikkun to be more perverted than he is, but then again, I need him to watch Emily's efforts to win the G.o.ddess Core. This is so contradicting! But I have an idea!

"...I know!" I pumped my fists. "You stay here and watch but I'll cover your eyes!"

"You really don't make any sense all the time." Rikkun sighed.

Sweat ran through Emily's cheeks. She may be at a disadvantage but that doesn't mean that she's ever going to give up.

"Ooooh, your eyes… scary…" Zenaida said with full sarcasm. "Let's see if you can survive my next attack with your undergarments intact!"

Zenaida kicked the b.a.l.l.s on her feet up, and she made palm attacks that launched the b.a.l.l.s at extreme speed! Five b.a.l.l.s are now rus.h.i.+ng to our maid's position!

"Kuh!"

Emily did her best to evade the first two b.a.l.l.s by ducking and rolling, but the last three b.a.l.l.s. .h.i.t her right knee, left the stomach, and left breast! Now her thighs and her pink bra are exposed to the public!

"Enough! I won't lose!" Now Emily is furious! "

Eight gigantic spider legs sp.a.w.ned her back. She even used the Weapon Gem on her headband to materialize her drilled tail!

She used all the spider legs to puncture nearby b.a.l.l.s, and then rained it to her opponent like a mad kid in a s...o...b..ll fight! She even used her tail to toss more acid b.a.l.l.s!

Zenaida has nowhere to go. Dodging all those projectiles is like dodging raindrops in a typhoon. But it's not impossible. It's not impossible for a G.o.ddess like her.

"

!!!"

Zenaida morphed into the dark-winged G.o.ddess that has a half-beautiful half-rotten face. She covered herself with her wings to s.h.i.+eld herself from those cloth-melting b.a.l.l.s, and then she leaped forward to gain flight!

"Just because you're superior in all ways doesn't mean that you will win this fight!" Emily continued to attack! "I can defeat you even if you're a G.o.ddess!"

"Fwahahahahaha!!!" G.o.ddess Hel laughed as she returned the same amount of ball barrages with her swift claws! "Be careful! I'm the G.o.ddess of death! There's a 5% chance of instant kill in each and every one of my attacks!"

Emily used her spider legs to parry all the incoming projectiles as she returns fire. G.o.ddess Hel also did the same with her wings and avenged with very same ball-launching speed.

Sounds of acid b.a.l.l.s colliding filled up the entire hall. Some b.a.l.l.s proceeded to melt their clothes, and this is so brutal to watch.

Pant. Pant.

The two of them wheezed. They have clearly drained their stamina, and Emily's

Both of them already appeared to be nude. Emily only had her left bra left, so she had her left hand hold that remaining garment. Emily really has a fine hourgla.s.s figure and white skin. Her b.u.t.t is already exposed.

On the other hand, Zenaida/Lord Hel still has her black frilly panty on. She's using her wings to cover her upper part.

Don't worry, I got Rikkun's eyes covered. We, the girls can only see their secrets.

"It's so sad that you've run out of prana to match me." Lord Hel said as she picked up one last acid ball. "Now die in shame as I make this final attack!"

Emily couldn't find any b.a.l.l.s on her side, so all she can do is to curl like a scared armadillo!

Bam!
