Ezerisia stared at Kailen Darkhaven with a cold glint flashing through her eyes. She waved her hand as tendrils of darkness shifted across the surrounding space. The tendrils of darkness weaved together, forming a very large obsidian halberd. The halberd shifted from the skies into her hands.
"I told you I will kill you in the most humiliating way possible. One should know when to bend to the powerful, and retreat. Instead, you overestimated yourself and disrespected me."
Her voice was full of calm arrogance, loud enough for everyone across the stadium, the participants, and the whole empire watching this event to hear.
Some nodded at her words. Kailen Darkhaven was undoubtedly powerful. But he had bitten more than he could chew. It seemed he would fall today. This Ezeresia was very powerful, even though many had realized she was no longer the strongest participant in the competition.
