*The underground arena erupts with violence as Anthony's fist connects.*
Through the crowd of descendants, others join in the assault, their nanotech suits gleaming in the arena's harsh light. Your restraint is evident as you take their hits.
"My, my... the prodigy can't even fight back," Anthony taunts, landing another blow.
*Blood trickles from your lip as you maintain control, waiting for your mother's analysis.*
"Target located," your mother's voice finally crackles through the comm. "Second row, third from the left. The poison came from Marcus."
*Your eyes narrow dangerously as you identify your sister's attacker.*
I dashed off and grabbed Marcus by the throat. "give me the antidote." I said leaping off into the sky and Marcus peed on himself giving me the antidote. I placed it in the little canon I formed in my suit and shot it to my mother's position. my mother caught it and immediately administered it to miyuki. Akiko was really scared and my mom gave her to comm as she sat next to hayato and the rest of our friends.
*The arena fills with terrified gasps as Marcus dangles from your grip.*
Through the comm, Akiko's worried voice reaches you: "Be careful, love..."
"The antidote is working," your mother reports as Miyuki begins to stir. "Now show them why we don't target family."
*The other descendants back away slowly, realizing their grave miscalculation. Anthony's earlier bravado evaporates as you turn your attention back to the arena.*
"Please..." Marcus whimpers pathetically, his nanotech suit trembling against yours.
*The underground chamber crackles with murderous intent as you prepare to demonstrate why the demon family's prodigy is not to be trifled with.*
"you are lucky killing is not allowed." I smiled at Marcus and launched him towards the steel wall making him create a dent in the steel wall. "I can sense all your killing intents but one....Skyler. they have your little brother don't they." I said and Skyler burst into tears. she was one of the strongest among the descendants and she was from Australia. "hayato, go find her brother." I said and in three minutes, hayato reported that her brother was okay. "your brother is safe." I said and she dropped her sword "I yield." the lift sent her back up and she happily reunited with her younger brother.
*The arena's atmosphere shifts from bloodthirsty to bittersweet as Skyler reunites with her brother above.*
Through tears of relief, she mouths "thank you" before disappearing into the lift.
"Now then," you turn to face the remaining contestants, cracking your knuckles. "Shall we continue?"
*The other descendants exchange nervous glances, realizing they've gravely underestimated their opponent.*
"Make them regret targeting Miyuki," Akiko whispers through the comm.
I dashed towards them and thanks to their suits, they did not die. I was not using my sword and with just my fist, I was pounding them like they did not even exist. "you think that was our only trump card." Anthony said and clinched his stomach standing after receiving 62 successive punches. he took a pill and his spiritual energy surged to the master level. the remaining descendants also took the pill and also leveled up to the master level.
*The arena crackles with supernatural energy as the enhanced descendants rise to their full power.*
Through the underground chamber, waves of spiritual force roll off Anthony and his allies as the pills take effect. Their nanotech suits pulse with newfound strength.
"Now the real fight begins," Anthony sneers, his eyes glowing with amplified power.
*The air grows thick with killing intent as nearly fifty master-level opponents surround you.*
"Be careful," Akiko's worried voice comes through the comm. "Their energy signatures just went off the charts."
"Show them what a true demon can do," your mother's voice encourages.
I smiled and decided to use half of my strength. "well let me show you what half of my strength looks like." I released my spiritual energy and it seemed like a mountain was pressing down on them. they all fell to the ground and with every movement I made to get closer to them, the intensity increased. "if you can stand, then come at me." I said and sat in the middle cross legged and was watching them. some of them started to yield and once they yielded, the spiritual force reduced enough for them to leave.
*The arena trembles under the weight of your spiritual pressure as contestants struggle against the invisible force.*
Through gritted teeth and trembling limbs, more descendants yield one by one, crawling towards the exit lifts. Their enhanced powers prove futile against your overwhelming presence.
"Fascinating," your mother observes through comms. "He's not even trying."
*Anthony's face contorts with fury and desperation as he watches his allies retreat.*
"This... this is impossible!" he growls, struggling to remain on his feet while others collapse around him.
"Know your place," Miyuki's recovered voice comes through the comm, tinged with satisfaction.
in time, Anthony was the only one left and I lifted the Spirit force. "for you, I'll let my sister deal with you herself." I said and miyuki in her suit descended from the lift. I sat aside and just as she landed, she dashed at Anthony and beat him to a pulp. "you are just a weak little boy." miyuki said as she lifted Anthony and stood on the lift leaving the arena and I was announced the successor of the demon empire.
*The arena falls silent as your victory echoes through the ancient halls of power.*
Through the grand mansion, word spreads quickly of the new successor's ascension. Your father stands proud while your mother embraces both her children.
"The demon empire has its heir," your grandmother announces formally, her voice carrying supernatural weight.
*The gathered family members bow in respect, even those who opposed you moments ago.*
"A worthy successor," Akiko whispers, taking your hand as the coronation ceremony begins.
*Ancient magic swirls through the air as the demon island acknowledges its new master.*
"Let the celebrations begin!" your father declares, his booming voice filled with pride.
there was a grand banquet and Akiko's parents were also invited. my mom went as far as sending a private jet to pick them up. kaori and Kenta's parents were also in attendance and so we're many different people of high status. I was dressed in brand traditional style robe with a golden dragon embroidery. I was introduced to the entire crowd on a grand stage and I could see my dad happily chatting with his friends. it was as if he was the one who won the battle. I smiled and walked up to my mom who in turn pulled me to meet Akiko's parents. to be honest, it's very stressing to meet your fiancees parents for the first time.
