164 The Helios Games

Rachel was hugging a pillow as Miyu was watching some of Odore Garden's news. Where they listed out what worlds have been destroyed and ones that have become open to the public.

Rachel she was pouted, "I want to go back" she whined.

"Then why don't you?" Miyu asked

"Because he's not their anymore" she whined once more.

"Then go find him"

"No!" She continued to whine "He won't be the same."

Miyu shrugged her shoulders, Rachel has been non-stop sulking ever since she left her last world, from what she gathered it was because of a guy she was smitten with. Changing the channel, Miyu tilted her head at what was on.

"Helios Games, it a Tv show here in Odore Garden. Pretty popular to" Rachel said once she heard the announcers voice.

Miyu looked at Rachel for an explanation.

"The show takes thirty random contestants from worlds below. Most contestants tend to be famous characters from stories, The games mostly star them fighting one on one battles or every now and then that adds something to the mix. When they get characters, who aren't good at fighting but other things." Rachel finished and then took a nap.

Miyu looked back and started to watch it.

Cheers resounded out the stadium where the Helios games where being held, the locals of Odore Garden comprised of task takers and G.o.ds alike, happy to watch their favorite character duke it out in real like.

Two people walk up to the stadium both on opposite sides.

"Good Helios, everybody!" Said a s.p.u.n.ky looking young girl, she had a Rockstar outfit. Cheer kept being heard. "Our first battle of the day, on our Left we have, Angelica the Fallen" The s.p.u.n.ky girl pointed to the young woman who was in a black nun's outfit with a red sword in her hands. "And our Right, we have Allen Asher." Said a smiling youth, he was male but looked rather feminine. But then again he was also wearing a nun's outfit.

"I will explain the rules of the bout, okay. Is this arena everything is allowed, spells, weapons, ultimate planet splitting attacks and all. Don't worry the arena is filled with magic, so everything you do will be never going outside of the arena.

Even if something happens, we have our very own G.o.ds and G.o.ddess willing to take control of the situation right here in the stands.

Also, there is no need to hold back, inside the arena. No one will really die, if a killing blow is successfully performed that contestant, will automatically be sent to the medical bay for recovery to full health.

I'm Amelia Bright and I am you, announcer, for this season Helios Games." Amelia waved.

"How Wonderful," Nancey said her flushed face blooming as she rubbed her stomach that had a bulge. Azdis was holding her hand giving her a worried look. The pair had decided to see the Games from the stands.

"Nan, can you tell me about those two, I don't really keep up with the times."

Nancey nodded. "Angelica the Fallen is an Antagonist, she was a nun and vampire hunter, who stole the dark sword for power so that she could avenge her younger sister. Using the sword, she fought the supernatural beings of her world.

As for Allen Asher is the second male lead of his world, he is what people call a 'trap', due to his feminine features he was considered a woman. It wasn't reveled until his death of his true gender." Nancey ended her explanation.

Angelica looked at her opponent who disgusts, she knows full well her opponent is male and yet he wears clothes of faith like that. She observed him a little more.

Allen Asher does the same, he observes his opponent. His att.i.tude looked playful towards Angelica.

"Alright, since our Contestants are ready. Let this fight begin." Amelia announces and a loud horn emerges.

The two clashed Angelica with her sword and Allen with his rapier.

Angelica has an amazing defense, due to the evil sword she carries. While Allen does fast and light attacks. Angelica is able to hold her own against his attacks but unfortunately, his speed is something she can only match with her defense.

Angelica grew frustrated but her mind was calm as she took attacks. Quickly moving her legs she stabs her sword into the ground to create a rocky area as crack split the arena. Causing Allen to lose balance, its unfortunate that Allen is good with speed, but his strength can't match Angelica.

Allen jumped back and was rather surprised, at how deep and how large the crack she made. He landed a distance away on flat ground that wasn't crack. He a.s.sessed that he ended up to far away, she saw Angelica lift her sword.

He felt danger when he saw it glow red.

Smash

The arena was destroyed even more in fact about half of it wad gone, just from one swing. Angelica went back to her normal on-guard stance. As she charged up more power, she was impressed her attack didn't reach outside the arena.

Allen had a few bruises from the attack, he didn't expect that much damage although he manages get out of it in time, he wasn't unscathed. Thankfully, he had dust to cover for him.

Meanwhile, Angelica was glowing red again. Sword and wielder alike, it started to glow viciously. Angelica may not be able to see him, but she can be sure to take him out. Allen suddenly felt a chill down his spine, 'she wouldn't be able to pull another large attack would she' he wondered, 'it has only been a few seconds since her last attack.

Rising her sword in the air, the energy collected above its tips and turned into a field that expanded and turned into a rather circular-field, once it reached the ground the areas it reached seemed to have been crushed into dust. It was expanding slowly at first but then suddenly boom the field reached the edges of the arena.

Ring~

The sound representing the end of battle rang out. "And the Winner Is….Angelica!" said Amelia as Angelica was standing on the only platform that remained below her feet. She watched in wonder as the arena she had just destroyed look to be repairing itself.

"Allen never had a chance," Nancey said.

"Your right" Azdis commented he had a tablet-like object in his hand and was reading. "Allen's world wasn't as violent as Angelica, Allen lived in a somewhat of a peaceful time all his life. His skills revolved around, just his rapier.

While Angelica had and evils swords power and area attacks. Cupped with the fact that she had been trained to fight vampires since she was a child and faced plenty of life and death situations. She has more experience in dealing with odd opponents.

Knowing that Allen's attacks where speed-based, she used the ground to quickly get him away from her and an attack to test waters. Most likely she was wanted to see it the arena could take her attack.

It's a shame that in her world, love is what killed her in the end. Otherwise, she would have outshined the protagonist her sister."

Back in Rachel's s.p.a.ce, Miyu t.i.tled her head, 'That Angelica looks like Atlas' she thought.
