The Great Demon System

"Thank you for listening to that passionate display by my daughter! For your own safety, please take her words to heart because I can guarantee you that she is not joking!" Mason announced to the still silent crowd.

"She's growing up so fast… *Sniffle*" He muttered to himself.

"I will be explaining the rules once again so listen up! There will…"

After a few minutes of explaining the rules, the two combatants were ready to start the match.

The short, blonde-haired, fat, Leon was wearing spiky heavy armour and seemingly no weapon at all was staring daggers at Moby who at this point, was still ignoring him as he felt extremely happy listening to Jayden's speech.

Moby wore a standard set of light armour to prioritize mobility over defence like his build entailed. However, his choice of weapon was a little odd to say the least. Instead of using his usual preferred weapon of choice the katana, he used a metal shield instead.

"Now! If the combatants are all ready, I will count down to start the match!"

"5"

"4"

"3"

"2"

"1"

"Match Begin!"

"Ha! It finally started! Do you really think that shield can save you from me! Don't hold your breath! When I am done with you, Jayden would notice how much of a cooler guy I am than a puny orphan like you and dump you for me! Her pussy must be so sweet! I bet you never even got a taste of it!" Leon mocked with clear arrogance.

"You sure have balls of steel, don't you?" Moby retorted, his eyes staring daggers into Leon's soul.

"Yes, I do," Leon replied with a smirk, inflating his body and armour into the shape of a ball of spiky steel that towered almost 10 meters in height.

'Heh, I expected this… but it looks even stupider than what I read about…' Moby thought with a smirk.

Of course, Moby did not go into this match completely blind, he did his research.

Over the 5 days when Natalia was being non-stop tortured, he was not sitting on his ass doing nothing. Instead, he was training and doing research on abilities he found on the marketplace. One of those abilities was called "Ball of Steel", an ability that transforms the user into a gigantic ball of Steel that is still as flexible and bouncy as rubber. It still allowed the user complete movement while in the form but it lacked the ability of proper vision while in the form, opting the user to sense energy signals instead which was very impractical in many situations.

However, in such a small and compact arena, Leon would be able to quickie bounce of the walls at random and in quick succession, aiming to hit Moby every time with him definitely not being able to dodge or predict the direction of the balls bounce as he would have complete movement control.

Also, while in his ball form, his defence increased by an astronomical amount, making him almost indestructible by anything around his power-level range. However, there was a catch, he was only able to stay in his ball form for 5 minutes before it becomes too straining on his body, forcing him to rest for 10 seconds, making him completely vulnerable and defenceless.

However, for every match he had partaken in, it almost always needed much less than 5 minutes as most matches ended in 30 seconds to 1 minute.

That was he was so confident and why he chose such an arena for the fight to take place.

Of course, Moby did not find this information all on the internet as most people like to keep the powers of their abilities a secret from the public. However, there existed a secret, exclusive site that listed many abilities and their weaknesses that Moby found all thanks to Ryan, Jayden's butler.

Before Moby even proposed the fight, he used his "inspect" skill on Leon to see who he was going up against and if he wanted to challenge him.

That was why he was so confident.

The weird thing that Moby noticed about his stats was that he had 150 HP instead of the standard 100 that he had seen on every other human prior which made him think that there had to be some exceptions for humans' HP stats depending on either their power level, abilities or another factor that he had yet to consider.

'Avilia, set a mental timer in my head for 1 minute and 30 seconds,' Moby ordered her to do.

'Huh! What the hell do you think I am!? Siri? I am the first demon lord, Avilia Graymore!' Avilia retorted with slight annoyance.

'Just do it! It's hard for me to fight and keep track of time all at once!' Moby quickly replied as he saw his opponent begin to prepare his attack.

'Fine! But you owe me one!' Avilia replied with a smile as she sat back in her metaphorical comfy chair to enjoy the fight, popcorn in her hands.

Leon began rolling straight at Moby like a bowling ball only for Moby to easily dodge like he was nothing.

"Hah! I see that you did your research! My first attack is always slow so I can build up momentum! Most people attack me blindly thinking they have a free attack only for them to be crushed or blown away by my indestructible shield!" Leon taunted, surprising Moby who was shocked to see that he could still talk in his ball form.

"But! Even if you know how my ability works, it still won't save you from the rest of my attacks!" Leon screamed, jumping up with incredible force, heading straight for the still cheering crowd that was not at all startled by such a move, only to be blocked by the forcefield around the arena, bouncing him back to Moby like he was a rubber ball.

Leon was still going incredibly slow in Moby's eyes which still allowed him to dodge and react in such a small and compact area.

When Leon missed Moby once again, he used the momentum from his bounce to the ground to boost himself to the audience once again only to be bounced back to Moby at almost twice the speed, Moby still managing to easily dodge due to his high speed and better senses.

"I am impressed that you could last this long! But, sooner or later you would be crushed by my mighty ball!" Leon screamed like a lunatic as he continued bouncing continuously.

The more that he bounced, the more speed he got, and the more speed he got, the closer he got to finally landing an attack Moby which seemed like only a matter of time. When, suddenly, one of Leon's attacks finally connected, hitting Moby in the shield as he barely managed to dodge, cracking it, which made him inwardly curse while at the same time making Leon and the crowd celebrate.

"Hahahahha! This is what I've been waiting for! Get his ass, Leon!"

"Grind his bones to dust! I paid good money to see you whoop his ass!"

"That shield can't last for long, it's only a matter of time! Poor kid never stood a chance! I almost feel bad for him! Hahaha!"

"Come on new kid! I want an upset! I would be even more filthy rich if you win!"

The onslaught of attack continued as Moby used his shield to barely manage to block and dodge the attacks, his shield becoming more and more damaged until it was finally destroyed.

'Fuck! Avilia! Is time almost up!' Moby asked in panic as he did not at all expect what happened.

'Hehe, Almost!' Avilia playfully replied making Moby inwardly curse as he tried to dodge Leon's attack only for him to be deeply slashed right across the chest by one of the spikes protruding from the ball, making him grunt in pain and spit out a mouthful of blood.

"YES! End it my son! Show this arrogant prick who he was messing with!" Spencer screamed from the crowd, only to receive a deadly stare from Mason who was standing right next to him.

"Heh, heh, I-I am sorry my lord, I just got a little carried away… You know how parents are when they want to support their own children right?" Spencer said with an awkward chuckle, swallowing a mouthful of saliva.

"Shit! I told the kid it was a bad idea! But he didn't listen… My daughter even convinced me to pay her some of her allowances in advance to bet on him... Arrogant people like that should not come near my daughter. They will only bring her trouble," Mason muttered to himself as he prepared to call the match.

Jayden, Abby, and Alex who were sitting right behind him were all waiting with baited breaths, hope still in their eyes as they had faith in Moby to turn things around.

Especially Jayden who had the urge to tell her father to call off the match but decided not to as to respect her boyfriend's wishes.

For the next two attacks, Moby managed to completely dodge them by mere millimetres of him being hit, his heart racing and his face sweating as he used every fibre of his being to dodge.

"I got you now! There is no place for you to dodge hide!" Leon screamed, bouncing off the wall, rocketing straight for Moby much faster than ever before, the crowd screaming and getting even more excited as they knew in their heart that the match was completely over.

'Fuck! Avilia! Is it time yet!' Moby inwardly screamed.

'Ahhhhhhh… YES! IT'S TIME!' Avilia excitedly replied, getting caught up in the moment.

'FINALLY!' Moby replied with a smirk on his face, looking at the hurling spikey ball in front of him with a glow in his eyes.

*Crash*

"Moby! No!" Jayden screamed with tears in her eyes.

"Haha! That's my boy!" Spencer celebrated from the stands.

'Fuck! That was a heavy impact! I hope he's not too injured or else my daughter is gonna kill me,' Mason thought to himself, looking at the large dust cloud where the impact was.

"I am hereby declaring the winner as…" Mason said, before biting his tongue mid sentence.
