Chapter 311 - NUMBER ONE !
Both nightmare and Razia were having a heated argument , as nightmare kept pestering Razia to do something and save them , alas Razia too, was not currently in his full tier 5 glory , he was stuck inside this tier 2 body where he could only show a fraction of his true power.
Also the man leisurely strolling infront of him , gave him chills , he was intimidated by a weakling , and as a proud dragon , he would never admit to it.
Only when nightmare finally calmed himself , regaining his poker face , that someone may know about the lost kingdom of draconia , as it is mentioned in lore here and there that Shakuni must be grasping at straws here , only by seeing his massive blood dragon move is he bluffing, about knowing his secrets , he was trying to reason with himself when Shakuni dropped another psychological attack , that completely destroyed his psychè .
Rudra said " That's a nice spear you've got there , the Overlord spear ..... It's a spear with a great legacy , once belonging to the mighty blood dragon Razia ".
Nightmare was absolutely bewildered.... He shouted at Razia in his mind ' HE KNOWS .... HE KNOWS OUR SECRET '.
Rudra enjoyed the look of shock on his opponents face , this was actually all that he knew about the Overlord spear , he could never have actually guessed that the ancient dragon was actually residing inside nightmare. However he had successfully planted the seed of doubt in his opponents mind.
Rudra slowly started to pick up pace , as nightmare started to retreat . Rudra wanted to finish this fight for once and for all , however just because he was at an advantage did not mean he could be careless . If he could turn the situation around , soo could his enemy . He did not underestimate the cunning of Nightmare.
The only reason he chose to play mindgames for a while was that he wanted to see if nightmare used any hidden trump cards in his arsenal , because right now is a situation where one needed to use everything they have got to reverse the fragile situation they are in. When nightmare did nothing , Rudra assumed he had no more cards to play , and decided to carefully go in for the kill.
-------
Derek Ray : Shakuni is picking up pace , however nightmare is clearly running away , he wants nothing to do with Shakuni , does this mean the end is near ... What are your thoughts Lee?
Lee Dixon : I have no idea anymore Derek , this match had to be over multiple times by now , it's just pointless speculation on our part , I'll believe that we have a winner when, I see one. Logically Shakuni has the advantage right now , let's see if he can seal the deal .
Derek Ray : Well said Lee , Shakuni should win this match, however we never know what nightmare might have in store for Shakuni , my god is this nerve wrecking , imagine being a contestant fighting this match Lee.

( Nightmare's POV)
Ever since Rudra name dropped Razia , the dragon had went silent inside a panicking nightmare , who was desperately fleeing his enemy , screaming for help .
Finally after a few seconds , Razia said " I'll give you one chance kid , but using that move with your tier two body would mean that I will probably be put to sleep for few months time , and you will suffer from mana circulation problems , may even get a permanent problem".
Nightmare was silent for a second after hearing this , he was a reasonable man , however he was not over the concept of vanity. He wanted the fame and fortune that came with winning Olympic gold , however at what cost?
Rudra was closing in on nightmare , even though nightmare was running at full speed. Nightmare cursed Rudra for his insanely high stats , before frustratingly agreeing to Razia . He said " Do it... Now ! ".
Razia sighed , thinking how he had to use forbidden magic to fight tier two ants..... Nightmare stopped running as he faced Rudra.
The Overlord spear began to hum in nightmare's hand , as two of the three blood drops that surrounded nightmare started to merge with his overlord spear. The black and red spear began to turn into a completely blood red color , as the golden dragon coiled on the spear which initially only had its eyes open , now started to move ..... In a never before seen phenomenon , the dragon , about the size of a leg of an adult male , detatched itself with the Overlord spear , and hopped onto the solid ground , as in a deep voice that was unlike nightmare's ... Nightmare spoke " Forbidden move : Dragon manifestation ! ".
The crowd went ballistic in approval !
---------
( Rudra's POV)
As soon as Rudra saw the golden dragon detatch itself from the Overlord spear , Rudra frowned and did not charge at his opponent carelessly. He had never seen this move before .... Not even when the great cataclysm occured and he saw Razia in action , this was completely new to him. Also the deep voice in which nightmare spoke , was unlike his own ..... A lot of mysteries surrounded this move.
With the single blood sphere that surrounded nightmare , he started to absorb the blood to regain his lost HP. However surprisingly it was extremely slow , unlike the first time when he absorbed it within seconds. Right now he was barely regaining a 100 HP a second ... About the speed of a trash quality basic health potion.
The little dragon roared , and unlike it's short stature , its roar was mighty and strong , enough to shake up the entire arena!
System notification : All stats reduced by 20% , you are affected by dragon's roar !
Rudra frowned even more , the little dragon was not to be underestimated .... It was Dangerous.
The crowd roared along with the little dragon , as if they were sure that with this new addition there would yet be another interesting development in the matchup . Nobody understood the origin of the plathora of trump cards used one after the other by these two contestants.
Clearly they were in a league of their own .. the ambitious players who wanted to be on this stage themselves were left with bruised and shattered ego ... Compared to the two fighting right now .. they were nothing.
Noone had any idea that what Razia currently do was a tier 5 forbidden magic called dragon manifestation , whereby he using his dragon soul took control of an inanimate object.
Razia was casting another powerfull tier 4 spell in his mind and only needed 3 more seconds to successfully deploy it. Just 3 more seconds and he would secure victory for nightmare . Unfortunately for him however , Rudra did not give him 3 seconds.
Nobody expected , that after all this twists and turns and all this intense fighting , Rudra had never used two of his strongest moves. That he was still hiding strength. Hence when he used these last 2 moves , he would inadvertently cause a huge controversy , that would plaque the internet for ages to come.
Rudra used STORMBRINGER !
A terrifying bolt of lightning was blasted ontop of of the golden dragon , it was very strong , however not detrimental to the metal dragon at all , who conducted the electricity to the ground without a hitch , however in that one short fleeting moment , where the thunder hit him ... He was blinded by the flash of the lightning. As when he focused his eyes on his opponent again ..... He was gone!
Using BLINK Rudra had teleported right behind nightmare , past the guard of the golden dragon , as he used WORLDSLASH on the neck of the defenseless player , who was absorbing blood to regain HP.
-30,000 CRITICAL HIT! , Nightmare's HP hit 0 as he along with his spear and the golden dragon , were teleported out of the arena.
In a short timespan of 2.5 seconds , Rudra had sealed the match! , Leaving an tier 5 ancient dragon , and billions watching worldwide baffled.
A moment later thunderous applause rained down from the crowd , after this topsy Turvy event they finally had a winner! And it was Shakuni of the Elites!
As he stood there tall , with his fist raised towards the sky , his HP bar full at 100% , a question arose in the mind of the billions watching worldwide... What is his true level of strength?
From the start of the match till the end , Rudra brought out moves after moves that he never used in his matches prior to this . The logical thing to do when you are in trouble , is to dish out your strongest moves on the opponent as a show of strength. Yet Shakuni did the opposite , conserving strength and controlling the flow of battle .
If he had moves like thunderblast , blink and full counter , which he only used once in the entire tournament .... How many more hidden moves does he have? How much more strength has he hidden?
From the surprise appearance of the bombs to the introduction of the archballistae , to his own fighting style , it seemed as if the leader of the Elites was a hidden dragon , only showing his hand when needed. The most dangerous kind of opponent , whose strength could not be gauged.
Ethan Grey almost had a tear to his eye , when the ring announcers words fell on his ears.
Ring announcer : AND THE WINNER OF THIS MATCH , AND THE GOLD MEDALIST OF THE ONE V ONE FIGHT . FROM THE ISLAND COUNTRY OF JAPAN .... SHAKUNIIIIIIII !
A Thunderous applause rained from the crowd , along with a chant of ' You deserve it! ... Clap , clap , clap .... You deserve it ! '.
Yet Rudra himself was deaf to all this , his only thoughts being that ' He did it ..... He is not the same guy he was once , He is now Shakuni of the Elites ! '.
