THE BATTLE OF THE NEXT BETA LEVEL 2
ZARYA'S POV
I stepped forward when Seo Blood Drop pointed at me. I never showed any dread or doubt to myself. I would always be proud. He walked, looking at the women, one by one.
"Can I volunteer?" Deni Zin lifted her hand. The fighter's expression could be traced on her face.
Seo Blood Drop moved his head, disagreeing with her. "Volunteering is not allowed."
Deni Zin rolled her eyes. She could not do anything when The Punisher talked. Seo pointed at one woman with strawberry hair. Her face was not familiar to me, or she just did not get my attention. When my eyes went to Matilda, she mouthed. "The Poisonous Strawberry, Victoria. Don't let her touch you."
Fortunately, Matilda was here. She had a lot of details in her head. The warning came immediately before it happened. Khal was now in the crowd, watching me, he nodded his head and said. "Break your leg."
Victoria seemed childish when he stepped into the center. Automatically, her kid aura changed into warrior mode when Seo came in the middle of us. "The Daughter Of The Great Beta and the Poisonous Strawberry match." He gazed at me and then at Victoria. "I repeat, the goal is to defend yourself against the enemy. Blood by blood. Power by power. Body by body. Life by life. The Battle Of The Next Beta… Level 2 begins!" He raised his elemental sword and the battle started.
I did not have my first move, I let the opponent do her attack. When she reached me, I ducked and stretched my legs to bring her down. When I was successful a strong kick landed on her face. This was hard for me. I should not touch her because I was not sure if she put poison in her body. One wrong touch and I will be dead.
She giggled while she was removing the blood on the side of her lips. "You, whore!"
"You, cunt." My voice was authoritative.
"Woah! The fight is interesting!"
"Daughter of the Great Beta!"
"Poisonous Strawberry!"
"I bet for her!"
"Fight! Fight!"
"Bloody battle!"
A lot of side comments, they were shouting loudly. Thye had their own supporting player. It was new to me that other people would cheer on me.
"Haya!" Victoria attacked me. She tried to touch my face. I used my elbow to hit her hand, dragging her away from me. She almost slammed on the white sands. She was so mad at me, her fists were closed while her jaw was tightened. She had not yet had a point in beating me and she should not have, that would be my end if her hands landed on me.
The sunlight was intensifying, so the sands were becoming hot. Even the atmosphere could feel the high temperature.
Suddenly, she flipped over and gave me an uppercut. I threw it on the ground. I immediately stood up without hesitation, so I could not give her a chance to knock me out.
I examined her hands. There was a pink powder scattering to it. That was dangerous, avoidance was my only hope. But how could I cut her life when I could not touch her? I looked around, there was nothing I could use. We were not allowed to use a knife, sword, spear, or change in our wolf form.
I gazed down at my hand. By the way, there was no rule in using a sharp nail. I loved to color my nails when I was in college. I did not cut it, so I would surely use this as a defense.
I hurried towards her. She acted punch after punch. I dodged and dodged until I got a chance, I slashed her face using my nail. Her cheek bled.
"You, bitch! I'm gonna murder you to death!" It seemed that Victoria was self-conscious about her looks, which made her curse me.
"I can't deny it. I'm a real bitch." I turned around and flying kicked her chest. She flew away and then a loud sound of fall could be heard when she landed.
"Finish her!" People were shouting brutally.
Do I need to kill her? Should I? There's no rule in killing?
I looked askingly at Seo Blood Drop, but there was no sign on his face that he was answering me. Because of my preoccupied mind, I did not notice that Victoria was already attacking me. She palmed my face, trying to insert her finger into my mouth.
Oh? So her poison was not effective without ingesting it? I was free to touch her?
She forced me to open my mouth while I was kicking her, but she was just dodging.
"Die!" Her jaw was constricted, the angriness could not be hidden.
When I got a chance, I held her wrist and twisted it. Her loud shout covered the area. I did everything that I could do to point her finger at her face. I forced her to open her mouth. She was one of the strongest women I had met, so I did that for about a second. When her mouth was apart, I worked on her finger to insert it.
"Zarya! Zarya! Zarya!" The deafening shout of the crowd was echoing around.
"Fight, Victoria!" Some were betting for her.
We exchanged pointing fingers, the pink power was in there, that was her strategy.
What will make her move her mouth apart?
I think about every possible technique. It was like I had a light bulb in my head when I had a good method. I kicked her belly, but she just backed away, ineffective. I gritted my teeth when I glimpsed at the mountains of her chest.
If a woman did not want someone touching their private parts, they would either shout or fight back, so it could change the way of her battling. I breathed in before I palmed her nipple and pinched it so hard. I hated when Hali did this to me for the first time. Good thing, she was not wearing a bra. We were prohibited to bring any. My finger could hurt her well until it bled and she shouted with her open mouth. That was the time I placed her finger inside her mouth.
A moment later, she fell while shaking and producing a bubble from her mouth. Her eyeballs were looking up and down, side and side. A second of a moment and she passed away. I was amused with the pink powder, the killing was quick.
The noisy environment filled my ears. They were shouting for my title while raising their right hands.
"Daughter Of The Great Beta!" They repeated it plenty of times.
A small smile formed in my lips when I gazed at Khal. Like what 8 felt for him when he was in a battle, he was so proud and confident that I am his sister.
I was startled when Seo Blood Drop put something in my hands, when I looked at it, my mouth gradually fell apart. It was a pink pouch with poisonous powder inside.
"The aim of level 2 is to defeat the enemy and steal its title." Seo Blood Drop held my hand and lifted it up. "The Daughter Of The Great Beta proved to us that she can be a Poisonous Strawberry! The winner is Zarya Wixx!"
Little by little, I was climbing the ladder of my success.
I will go home to Hali having many titles. I hope I can have the title as his… queen.
