The Cursed Bloodline
Death Ring

"YORA! stop me please.." said Yuri with a sharp look. Seeing Yora approach Rei, making her emotions run high

Yuri could no longer hold back the anger within her, the scales of the white snake began to be seen on the girl's neck. Not only that, Yuri released a powerful energy when she could no longer control her emotions

Trssssss.....

Even Kono and Zuryu could feel the dasyat energy coming out from Yuri's body. Xio stood up, looking at Yuri for a moment

"If you're willing to take part in my bet, you can come to the fighting arena! " xio said to Rei without turning his eyes to Yuri

"Zury....... Get everyone out of here, if you don't want to get hurt. "

Zuryu and everyone in the room left. Xio walked slowly towards Yuri, his moon gyoku without shining brightly. Slowly, he pressed Yuri's forehead with his right hand

" Although your strength is a healing pillar stone. Still the stone shared energy with Nue, the symbol of darkness. You must control yourself, Yuri "Xio with his moon Gyoku, he suppressed the power of the Pillar Stone in Yuri's body.

Yuri just bowed limply, her legs could no longer support her body

"Why? Why are you doing that, Yora? "say Yuri while bowing down limp, clear grains started to fall from her eyes

"Because, this is the life of someone like me... "

Xio turned around and left Yuri alone. Before that, he had briefly glanced at Yuri with his eyes tails

" You can get out of here, I'll have Zuryu escort you to the castle. "

......................

Audience cheers echoed throughout the vast battle arena. The battle arena located underground of the Judi Zuryu building. A fighting arena dubbed the 'Death Ring' was never deserted by spectators

Not only ordinary people, it is not uncommon for state officials to participate in gambling. The people who came were not people from the lower classes, but nobles and businessmen with abundant money in their pockets.

Not surprisingly, if in one interesting fight, the stakes can even buy an island

"All right...... The honorable audience. Ladies and gentlemen........ This time, Kono got an unexpected handler! If you support him.... Please raise your bets! " display the match host

The monitor also showed support for Kono was very high, even reaching 500 gold pieces, a fantastic figure to buy half the village

" It seems.... Kono has not lost his supporters." said Host complacently.

"All right.... We'll see on the other side..... He is an amateur named Rei! Just look, he's even 14 years old. "scoff the Host.

All the spectators in the arena laughed, Xio who was sitting in the top VIP seat could only play his glass, with Zuryu standing beside him

" How do you call that fair, sir? " said Zuryu. He was astonished, why did Xio make Rei fight a man as brutal as Kono

"We haven't seen the end result. You mustn't draw any conclusions yet, Zuryu" Xio watched the stage in front of him while smiling in a knot

" well! Who would bet on the other side, Rei? " say Host

On the monitor, there were only 50 pieces of gold belonging to Xio. Of course, who would choose amateurs and throw away their money if there were the best fighters. It cannot even be called a choice

"We call our fighters, Kono and Rei!

Like the rules in this Death Ring, you are free to carry out any attack. In fact...... If one of you dies.

However, Magic in any form, is not allowed. You can only fight using your Physical strength!

If anyone cheats, you can't get out of here in one piece.

The winner will get all the bets.

But.......

If you lose, you have to replace the bet placed entirely. Even if it is necessary..... You have to pay with your lives!" said Host tells the rules

Kono also entered the fighting arena, of course accompanied by all the cheers of the audience in the arena. He walked in Arogan style complete with a mocking smile from his face

As for Rei, he entered the arena without a single supporter. But there was no doubt coming from his eyes. Xio just stared at Rei from a distance, he realized that someone was behind him

"Why are you here, Yuri? "

Yuri did not answer Xio's question, she just stared at the worried Rei from where he was now. Zuryu who saw Yuri was so anxious, he began to explain Rei's background. The real reason why the boy dared to come to the fighting area

" He is the son of Kin village, a village with a large mine. As a result of the decline of the Sora economy, as well as the depletion of gold spares. The village was hit by a severe famine

Inevitably, Rei had to take this risk. His grandmother as his only family was in a terrible pain. Of course, it requires a lot of medical expenses" explained Zuryu

"Should He come? And risk his life? "say Yuri while clenching her hands tightly

" He had no other choice. Do you see expensively dressed people around you Miss? They are the rich men of Sora. They also contributed to the economic downturn of Sora.

They used their influence, hoarding their gold and wealth without caring for a people like Rei. But in this place..... They even risked their possessions for pleasure" Zuryu said

"But..... It can't make excuses, to involve a child. And let her die as a spectacle of greedy people! "

Vs.kkkk.........

Loudly, Xio threw his ochanya glass at the table. The look on his face was very upset to hear the conversation of the two people in front of him

"The fight hasn't even started yet, have you guessed the outcome? "

"Is something like this interesting to you? " said Yuri with a sharp look

" I'll make it as interesting as possible. "

......................

"You guys ready? GET STARTED! " said the host while blowing a whistle.

Rei and Kono faced each other, even at a glance, Rei was only 1/4 the size of Kono's body. With his arrogant smile, the bald man began to ridicule Rei

" Give up boy, at least I can make you die without pain! " kono said full of intimidation

Rei did not retaliate against Kono's threat. Like Xio's fighting style, he prefers to concentrate on his opponent in silence

"You can't fight me boy.... Feel this! "

Kono started attacking, he quickly punched Rei in the face until the boy bounced off. Feeling himself superior, he proudly waved to the audience. He showed that his opponent was just a weak boy

The crowd cheers echoed, Rei who started bleeding from his mouth tried to stand up again.

"Give up, boys! " snouted someone from the audience.

" Hear..... You hear that? If you don't give up. Maybe you died earlier than your grandmother, boy! " kono taunting

Rei could only put up his horses, occasionally wiping his bloody mouth. Even with Kono's attack and everyone's ridicule, he didn't give up so easily

" yeah.... You are so stubborn! "

Kono started kicking Rei, but surprisingly, Rei locked Kono's kick with his arm. He also locked Kono's legs, and threw his punch at his bald head

Tesss..... Buaggg.....

Kono fell down, he probably underestimated the boy in front of him too much

Zuryu who saw Rei's counterattack was surprised, he looked at Xio questioningly. The dark-eyed man was still playing his Ochanya glass. As usual with his calm and calm face. While Yuri only put on a worried expression

"How dare you, boy! " Kono began to raise his voice, he attacked Rei brutally

The light-bodied Rei easily guessed Kono's rash attack, although with all his strength, he tried to dodge Kono's powerful attack

" Huh! .... Huh! .... Huh! ....... This time I'm not kidding anymore! " said Kono while panting

He began to struggle because he attacked Rei with full strength but seemed rash. Feeling increasingly desperate, he also turned the strange ring on his ring finger

When viewed from the outside Kono was not a military person who had magic power in the form of Gyoku in his palm. However, the ring on his finger seemed to give off magic energy, thus raising his fighting ability

Ordinary people might not feel it, but not for Xio, Zuryu or Yuri. They were military people with the ability to sense magic with just their aura alone

Zuryu was aware of Kono's cheating, it was only fitting that he had always won the fight so easily all this time.

Urged by the cheers of the audience, Kono made a faux pas, and exposed his secret without him noticing

"I-That? ....... Cihh! .... I won't let that shit cheat! " said Zuryu

Xio's hand held Zuryu to mess up that unfair fight

" What's wrong, sir? If he used magic, it was really cheating! "

Yuri also warned Xio, "If magic is used, then Rei must die in this situation Yora! "

Xio did not respond to that, he only focused on the fight in front of him. Xio's silence made Zuryu understand his master's intentions

"Curtain! You can do that, Mr. Xio. "said Zuryu smabil smiling in surprise

Yuri could not do anything, not knowing how many times he tried to understand Xio, but could not.

Understanding an ice-cold male like Xio, it was the same as entering into an endless labyrinth. Yuri could only clench her hands tightly, eyes as beautiful as ruby began to tremble holding back her anger

In the fighting arena, Kono had already activated his power, without anyone noticing. He smiled at Rei

Now it was Rei's turn to attack Kono, he swiftly attacked with his martial skills

Tess.... Tesss..... Tesss....

Rei's attack was indeed a little weak, but with a lot of calculations and not rash his attacks became very effective.

However, by cheating, Kono used protective magic on his body, so any attack could never injure him

Tesss..... Skunkkk.......

Kono easily hit Rei, and made him bounce far away. While continuing to smile, he walked towards Rei. Kono clenched his hands, preparing to end the fight

"Thanks to you, I got a fantastic bet, plus that stupid guy bet from Tengu. I can even buy your entire village....... Should I thank you? At least I should kill you without getting sick, right? " Quickly, Kono's punch headed towards Rei's direction

Tessssss........

Yuri who saw the scene, immediately crouched down. He closed his ears with his hands, and closed his eyes tightly

" No! ...... "
