Omega Summoner

For the first time that in the match between two solo players, the time actually ran out. The two did not even notice that Ares' blessings have been fully stacked. The arena is full of cracks and even some parts of the walls came down.

Both Xinthri and Apolaki are full of bruises, but they are still standing proud without any signs of falling down. The battle ended with Xinthri having 20% of his health left while Apolaki is left with 21%. As the decision of the rules, Apolaki won the battle due to him having more health compared to Xinthri.

"As expected, I respect you for being a proud warrior." Apolaki stated as he shook Xinthri's hand.

"You as well." Xinthri stated but he bottled up his disappointment that the match is so close. If he was only a bit more powerful then he might have won.

"Apolaki won the solo match! Next up is the team match! Will the Philippine National team take the cake, or the Thailand National Team be able to take a slice!" The announcer stated which made the audience cheer their preferred team that they wanted to win.

The coin flip is won by the Thailand National team, but they could not easily say what arena they need. They cannot choose an arena that has a wide area because Dupe is more powerful in areas like that. They cannot choose the stadium arena because Apolaki and Arsenal will beat the living hell out of them.

The only logical choice that they can pick is the last arena where they have an advantage in the sky since one of them can fly. The Thailand National Team chose the floating island Avalon as the arena. Xinthri might not fully support it, but he also wants his team to win.

The two teams materialized in the map and saw that the arena is not that big, but it is also not that spacious. The support players of each team started casting their buffs in order to strengthen the team. As this is happening, Dupe is already setting up traps while being invisible.

She made use of the Wind Tunnel trap that creates a strong wind tunnel that pushes one using a strong gust of wind. The Thailand National team does not have an assassin class character in their roster or rather an assassin would be useless in this map as the tactic for this would be to class as a group.

While both teams are moving towards the center, Apolaki is using his kris to write something in the ground. He would write runic characters quickly and it would glow for one second before sinking to the ground. Dupe would then cast a trap in the area where Apolaki wrote the runes, and her trap would suddenly glow as well.

The team knew that a direct confrontation would be difficult because the enemy team is built for direct confrontation. In terms of support, Apolaki's team will lose as the other team has a bard and a priest. They need the perfect trap in order to defeat the back line quickly or else they will lose.

Arsenal might be a summoner that can turn his soulbounds into swords, but he cannot tank attacks. As soon as the preparation for both teams finished, they started their team plays. Xinthri flew up high into the sky and covered his body with Prana. A shell made of Prana covered Xinthri's body as he saw the location of the enemy team.

"Prana Assault!" Xinthri stated as he suddenly descended like a comet.

The first one to notice the dark purple comet charging towards them is Apolaki as he sensed something coming towards their direction, but he could not easily pinpoint it. Apolaki is about to tell his team members to scatter but something affected them at the worst timing.

"Stop!" Ngu stated as she used her innate skill called 'Alluring Voice'.

[All of the enemies in the area that heard your voice has been paralyzed.]

[Each enemy will be affected in different durations depending on their resistances.]

The effect of the Alluring Voice innate skill made them freeze in place. Four of the Philippine national team's players stopped in place. As the Prana Assault is reaching them, the first one to recover his movement is Apolaki. He raised his kampilan in order to at least divert the attack but a is suddenly coming towards him.

Apolaki had no other choice but to evade the attack which pierced his team member that is behind him. Arsenal suddenly started to bleed from his mouth as he forced a magic circle to appear. He summoned his soulbound that could protect him at this time.

"Secret Sword: Golden Pangolin!" Arsenal shouted as he forced himself to say it.

His Golden Pangolin then turned into a sword that blocked the Prana Assault of Xinthri. Arsenal thought that he blocked the whole attack, but he only blocked the area where he will get hit. His team member that got impaled by Ngu died as a result of being hit in the chest with the spear and the pressure from Xinthri's skill.

"Now is my chance! Activate!" Dupe stated as Ngu is no longer near the support players and Xinthri is busy with Apolaki.

"Activate Wind Tunnel!" Dupe stated as all the traps she placed in he ground below the support players of the Thailand National team activated.

The trap activated and the rune that Apolaki placed also activated as well. The rune enhanced the trap that Dupe place which doubled the power and circumference of the wind tunnel. Ngu and Xinthri saw that their team members are now flying in the sky.

Dupe is continuously pouring mana into the trap as she needed them to activate until she can create another Wind Tunnel in a horizontal fashion. Her plan is to push the three support players off the island as they needed to be defeated in order to win.

Ngu noticed this and immediately searched for Dupe and slithered towards her at her fastest speed. Dupe had no choice but to dodge Ngu's attacks while she is channeling her mana, but she is getting pushed away from the area of her traps.

"Godly Spirit Sword: Bathala!"

"Prana Arts: Heavenly Demon Gauntlets!"

The two once again started their match and the surroundings are affected. The three Thailand national players saw that the Wind Tunnel carrying them in the air started to lose a bit of power, but they forgot that only two of the enemy team died with Xinthri's Prana Assault.

In the end, the three players in the air got impaled by seven different swords as they became easy targets. With the defeat of the three support players, Ngu and Xinthri became progressively weaker as the buffs started to lose effects. In the three versus two situations, the Thailand National Team lost.

"The Philippine National Team wins!" The announcer stated as the match ended with a quarter of the floating island falling to the ground and only Apolaki being left standing in the arena. Dupe sacrificed herself when both Ngu and Arsenal took each other out. She turned herself into a Living Bomb and hugged Xinthri tightly.

Even with the enhancement of Prana, Xinthri died as a result of Dupe's sacrifice. With the second round of fights finished, an intermission occurred. A new video presentation of the teaser for the Advent of the King event is flashed.

The whole arena is once again used as a stage to show the teaser. The projection showed a land that is made of crystals emanating a special aura. In the middle of this large crystal field is a towering diamond looking mass.

The bright area suddenly turned dark while the ground beneath it turned into water. From the darkness, a dragon with light and dark elements circulating its body descended. From the water beneath, a wraith with four arms and a dark red crystal in its chest appeared.

"It is time to awaken brother." The two powerful monsters spoke.

The towering diamond mass suddenly cracked. Its perfect shape lost due to the numerous cracks and all the strange energy in the surroundings started to get sucked into the towering diamond mass. When the beautiful color in the surroundings suddenly became colorless, the towering diamond mass glowed and turned into the shape of a large feline.

A feline that looked beautiful and menacing at the same time appeared before the two powerful beings. Its body is made of a diamond like crystal while it wore armor made of gold. The large feline monster also radiated the beautiful energy that it absorbed from the surroundings.

"For my brothers to come for me, will the king finally be revived?" The large feline monster asked.

"Our king will descend, and we must be there to stop the foolish ambitions of the gods." The dragon of light and darkness stated.

The large feline monster then roared as the world it is inhabiting suddenly lost all its color and got absorbed by it. The dragon of light and darkness vanished again when it made the world dark. The wraith looking monster sunk back to a mysterious pool.. The large feline monster scattered into different colors of light.
