The Legends Of Creator Hero
Marionette's anger

The middle of the day has arrived, the final fight is right in plain sight. There was still time before the match started, but people had already flooded the now overcrowded seats of the spectators.

There were so many people who were looking forward to this fight that they did not intend to miss a second of the match.

"It's time, '" Rigel murmured while correcting the position of the mask so that it does not come off easily.

"Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey! Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the underground burial arena, Darkness! It seems that today's show has far more viewers than ever before and the organizers decided that this is the record for the most number of viewers ever... As a representative, I will thank the landlords greatly for your participation and passion present here."

All applauded, all cheered happily and all impatient for the organizers to finish the opening and start the match.

"Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah! Without needing to waste any more time, let's call three combat candidates!"

WHOA!!!

"The three remaining fighters are the demon Pillar Marionette, the war elephant Gahdevi, and the lord of death, Matsu and his team!"

The fighters entered the arena, as did Rigel and his comrades. I don't know since when he has the call of the lord of death. He also never heard of getting such a call. Although it sounds cool, but that kind of name is a little embarrassing.

As soon as they arrived at the arena, they observed each other. Marionette was worth watching out for, but Rigel would not foolishly ignore Gahdevi who was also his opponent.

"I will explain the match this time.., since there are three candidates in existence, they will fight in one arena, which means that each of them has two enemies. The ranking will be set from the first to fall will take the third rank and the last to stand will be the first rank. For the rewards obtained, starting from rank three that was Dwarf one of the main prizes and ten thousand gold coins, second place was God Sword and fifteen thousand gold coins, respectively, lastly in the first place will get the book of knowledge and also the gold coins of twenty-five thousand!"

Ignoring the cheers of the audience, Rigel was surprised that the prizes would be split equally by the winners. He thought the first rank would get his three main prizes, but it was not like that. Getting the Dwarves was indeed the initial purpose of Rigel coming to this place. But now it has changed because he cannot ignore the book of knowledge that supposedly has the record of this world.

There are still so many unsolved mysteries that he desperately needs the encyclopedia to reveal the mysteries that exist.

Even so, Rigel did not give up on getting the Dwarves. Fight to End is a fight in which people fight and are allowed to kill their opponents. In short, if Rigel killed Marionette and Gahdevi, he was guaranteed the entire top prize.

Huh~, the plan to make an alliance seems almost impossible, yes. The original plan formed an alliance, but now it is to kill Gahdevi first.

From the beginning, making a final alliance was already impossible. Humans are containers of greed, they always want more even though it is enough and still feel like having everything. If Gahdevi agrees to form an alliance but at the end will still be killed, then there will be no meaning in making such an alliance. It would be much better to fight it out not only to grab the prize, but to stay alive.

"I'll tell you one thing, if there's only one person standing, then all the gifts belong to that person" the host added.

"Good, good, not good, certainly good, maybe good, could be good, because it might be good! Fighting to the death is a blessing and a sin. Fighting means bleeding if injured and the wound will bleed which will stain the beloved soil with dirty blood, very dirty, very dirty because it is dirty!"

His logic regarding the repetition of the word is very disturbing and quite upsetting. Not only Rigel, but Gahdevi was quite distracted and said :

"Speak clearly, madman!"

Excluding the Hero and Rigel's comrades, there was no one foolish enough to say a rude word to the Demon Pillar. But Gahdevi said it without the slightest burden as if not afraid of the death that might come to him when he said that.

"Hoh.., you're brave enough to tell that madman straight away that he's crazy" Rigel praised a little.

Gahdevi just snorted and said, "You are the same as me. After all, I have been standing on the brink of death so much that I am tired of it."

Sounds silly, but there are no lies in his words. Rigel himself had once felt death and quite often approached death itself. Even so, he still had a fear of death because it was a normal thing that humans had because they had a time limit to live.

"Yes, I'm crazy, this madness is driving me crazy and troubled. Ahh~ I am really crazy and sin very sinful, sinful once, sinful enough, almost sinful because this is sin! Giagyagya!"

He was already unhelpful and trying to understand his words would only drive the deaf crazy.

"Without the need to linger any longer, we will start this final fight in the count of three.., 3..., 2..., 1, start!"

Getting the mark, Rigel and his team jumped backwards to keep a distance further than his two opponents. Marionette slowly took out four puppets with dagger weapons, a scythe, a sword and a shield.

Two of the puppets headed for Leo and Garfiel while the one with the scythe rushed towards Gahdevi.

"Leo, Garfiel! I'm sending those two dolls to you...!!" Rigel's command, "Rise up..," along with it, he summoned a Dragon with his Necromancer ability.

Like the simulation in her head, Marionette would probably directly attack using a puppet, even if the number did not match the estimate. The Mana thread of fairy magic can be clearly seen through her puppets and it comes from Marionette's finger.

He began to squint to see whether or not there was another magic thread on Marionette's back. Most likely he reduced his energy supply to be invisible, but his hopes were let down by the absence of anything.

Damnit damnit! Was it really his real body? Or is there another trick behind the doll's body.

Many possibilities can be thought of, but none of them can be considered appropriate. Trying one at a time will only be a waste of time, but there is no other choice but to do it or wait and observe. Maybe there was something he hadn't seen.

TING!

A sword fight occurs between Leo and Marionette's sword puppet. They looked balanced, although only the puppets were in motion through Mana, the puppets were more than capable of side by side with Leo.

He twisted his body and swung it upwards, giving rise to a blade-shaped air wave darting straight towards the Marionette sword puppet.

The puppet skillfully dodged Leo's attack and spun around quickly. Leo had to run away to avoid the blade.

"Tekhnik one : Incision!"

Leo turned around and darted towards the puppet. He slashed the bottom of the doll's body neatly and immediately cut off the air on the doll's back—more precisely cutting the thread of Mana on its back.

"Looks like it worked, thank you, Sylph," Rigel muttered and smiled.

On the other hand, Garfiel faced the puppet with a dagger that moved very agilely. Even so, the puppet was not agile enough to match Garfiel. The puppet jumped up and swung both of its daggers. Garfiel only smiled revealing his fangs and stretched out his hands to hold the two daggers. Garfiel held the blade of the dagger that was supposed to be sharp, yet his hand did not bleed at all.

"Your cheeks are too blunt to hurt my body.., now, Leo!"

Why can they see threads that should be invisible? It was thanks to the intervention of someone outside the arena. If discussing the fairy technique, then asking the fairy queen for help is the best answer.

Rigel had previously asked Sylph to help Garfiel and Leo to be able to use the Mana thread. Sylph secretly lent her visions to Garfiel and Leo through the ambient spirits scattered in the arena. Rigel wanted to thank him, but now was not the right time.

Rigel looks the other way and finds Gahdevi defeating the puppet. Without wasting any time, he jumped into Rigel's place and hit the air. Rigel retreated slightly and allowed himself to take refuge under the body of the Dragon who had been summoned to become the meat shield that protected him.

"Heh, take refuge under the lizard's body, you are quite brilliant yet.., Super Punch!"

Gahdevi swooped in the air and made an enormous pressure of air, to the point that the Dragon could not stand up straight and fell on Rigel. Before he was buried in the Dragon's massive body, Rigel jumped away and eliminated the Dragon.

"Tch! It's really troublesome to have two powerful enemies.., I need to get rid of them immediately."

There was no need for him to hold back too much. Even if his identity is revealed, at least let it be revealed when he has got the book of knowledge.

Rigel darted forward while shooting some Asura Punch towards Gahdevi, but he managed to fend it off with his hands.

Rather than a war elephant, he is better suited to be called the strongest Gorilla.

Rigel ran quickly and jumped as hard as he could and fought a direct blow with Gahdevi.

He was surprised, at first he thought that the masked man in front of him was only good at using magic, but in fact his pure physical strength offset his own.

"It seems like you held back from the beginning huh..," Gahdevi said with a troubled smile.

"You also seem to have something else under your sleeve."

Gahdevi could not see the expression behind the mask, but he could imagine that his opponent was smiling.

They were about to continue their exchange, yet their instincts both rang. An enormous killing intent emerged, attacking them instantly.

Rigel and Gahdevi simultaneously moved away from each other and where they had been before, a gigantic blade shot out and turned towards Gahdevi as if it had consciousness.

Rigel turned towards Marionette. If anyone can do it, he is the one. The Marionette doll's body shook and the ground on which it stood had cracks due to the aura of anger coming out from it.

"Ohhhhhhh.., Ahhhhhhh.., AHHHHHHH!"

Everyone's attention turned to Marionette who was shouting crazily and started tugging at her hair.

"AHHHHHH! SHIT, SHIT, DOG, PIG, MONKEY, MORON, IDIOT, BANGTSAT, MOTHERFUCKER, DAMN, FLYING PIG! HOW DARE YOU FINISH OFF MY BELOVED SON AND JUST IGNORE ME, YOU LOWLY MONKEYS AND DISGUST ASSHOLES!"

Marionette uttered various expletive vows that she could think of. Gahdevi who had crushed the giant sword blade was also amazed to see Marionette so angry.

Leo and Garfiel approached Rigel and took a defensive position as Marionette let out something unpleasant.

"Good, good, not good, certainly good, maybe good, could be good, because that might be good... AHH the shucks, flying pig dogs. Bad, bad enough, very bad, certainly bad, because it's bad. I can't take it anymore, I'd better kill everyone here."

Such terrifying words were enough to make everyone shudder in horror. But none of them intend to leave. They still had a strong belief that Marionette would not kill anyone for making a contract with the landlord.

But to Rigel, such a thing was just a figure of speech.

"MY DEAR CHILDREN, COME OUT!"

Marionette spread out her hands and over a hundred puppets appeared and stood around her. Each puppet had a long sickle-like weapon on both of their arms. The host was also shocked and became the first to react.

"Wait, Demon Pillar Marionette. Didn't you make a contract not to kill anyone??"

With her puppet eyes, she glanced at the host and nonchalantly said : "... Do you think the contract will still apply if one of them dies, the village monkey?"

The host was completely shaken by Marionette's indifferent words. It was clear that the contract was meaningless when the landlord himself was no longer breathing.

"You... Did you kill the landlord... My dad and he controls it like a doll?" muttered the host.

"Why should? I don't even want to control such a disgusting fat pig. I immediately threw it into the mud puddle after it was done controlling it."

The host kneeled weakly, his body started to shake and he hit the floor with all his might and crushed him.

"DON'T KIDDING!!"

The host ran and was about to hit Marionette directly, but Rigel stopped her in the middle because she would only be killed if she came forward recklessly.

"Don't be rash and act together. Let's kill that crazy guy together."

The host regained his senses and nodded. Rigel turned towards Gahdevi.

"Hey, gorilla! Looks like our fight will be stopped because of this madman going berserk. Let's get him done together! Leo, Garfiel, you guys get all the spectators and see how things are going outside and find Odin!"

"But what about you?" garfiel asked with a problem.

"I won't get killed easily, after all, there's this gorilla and host with me. We will certainly find it difficult to fight while protecting the people so join Odin after it has finished evacuating everyone!"

Garfiel initially hesitates a little, but given the real identity of the man named Matsu, Garfiel finally obediently goes to evacuate people with Leo.

"Now, let's finish off this rampaging madman!"
