Endless Horde: Through the Eyes of a Godking

His opponent was a Mage just like him, Darwin baited her by casting a fake spell, causing his foe to cast Dispel to interrupt him but since it was fake, Darwin used that chance to hit her with a mana-enhanced kick which didn't count as a spell.

His foe was dazed after the hit, and that's when Darwin used the spell: 'Thorned Vines' - to bind her and make her yield with at least five Magic Missiles aimed at her head.

Just like Cedric, Floyd, and Darwin were just here to defend their position. They were challenged and won, allowing them to do just that. That's why their battles were swift. Still, that doesn't mean that they weren't skilled. If anything, this displays their experience in stuff like this.

"I'm up next." Cedric heard Erica say beside him.

"Oh, good luck then." He said, patting her head a bit.

He of course saw the way how he subtly preen at his words but decided to not comment on it. With that, Erica made her way towards the stage to face her challenger.

At the other side of the arena, he saw her challenger. It was a guy that's not even bothering to hide his hate-filled stare towards him.

"If looks could kill, I'd probably be dead already with how much that guy glares at me. What's his deal anyway?" Cedric asked Chrissy beside him.

"Him? Hahahaha!" Chrissy laughed merrily at his plight. "His name's Sergio, Erica's long-time suitor. 'Absolutely smitten at me since day one and a constant source of nuisance' - Erica's words, not mine. I don't pity her though."

"Ah, so that's why." Cedric smiled wryly.

"Yep. He's been trying to get her attention for years yet failed, only for you to appear out of nowhere. He probably hates you the most right now." Chrissy continued.

Cedric could only really smile wryly at that. Well, what can he say? Sucks to suck? It wasn't his fault that he couldn't score a girl.

As the contenders met at the stage, they exchanged glances. Erica looked so done while the other guy was both appalled and angry with her blatant apathy.

"How could you, Erica? Wasn't I enough? Have I not given you my everything? How can you do this to me?" The guy gnashed his teeth in anger and frustration.

"Ew. Stop that. It's gross." Erica grimaced. "You should really see a doctor, your delusions have become dangerous."

Oh, the guy could hear his heart-shattering at her words. So crass, direct, and painful. She didn't hold back at all.

The majority of their audience couldn't hear their conversation but a handful of them knew how to read lips. Of course, this includes Erica's team and Cedric himself.

"Kyahahahaha! Our Little Saint is still as vicious as ever!" Francis guffawed at his seat. The rest had varying expressions but it's generally good.

That said, Erica ran out of pity for him a long time ago. She has already been kind to him during the first few times he tried forcing his delusions on her. She kindly rejected him but the dude just won't stop.

At this point, she's so tired of him already. And because he constantly chases after her, being a constant nuisance in her life, she doesn't feel any kind of pity towards this guy. Not anymore.

"But don't you see it? That guy...he's a bad influence on you! He's a playboy! He didn't just seduce you and corrupt you, he also extended his grimy paws towards Christina! Wake up, my love! He's not the right man for you!

I am!"

Cue in puking sounds

"..."

"...welp, there goes my lunch, I guess." Erica sighed, wiping the corners of her mouth. She then blandly looked at her foe and said: "Look what you did. Shit. I should really find someone to stitch that mouth of yours. That way you can swallow all the bullshit that could come out of it."

'That's a bit...' Cedric laughed helplessly at the way Erica reacted to Sergio's words.

"Ooh, now he did it." Chrissy said in a sing-song tone. "He's about to receive a soul-shattering verbal beatdown from our resident Violent Saint, and trust me he is not ready for it."

"...it's been a while since I saw that, this will be good." Francis chuckled as he leaned closer.

Sergio grits his teeth at her blatant disgust and dismissal of his feelings. Unfortunately for him, she wasn't done yet.

"And please, me? A saint? Being corrupted? Chrissy as well? You speak as if you don't know us at all. Cedric might be an abnormal guy but he's only Tier 3, what corruption do you think he could do to us?"

"It's the other way around actually." Erica sneered, "We corrupted him."

**

"Yeah, that sounds about right. My man Cedric looked too innocent so it could only be-- ack!"

Francis couldn't finish whatever he was about to say since Chrissy kicked his seat and glared at him.

"Yes, I'll shut up now." Francis pouted.

**

"...!!" Sergio's eyes bulged in shock.

"Yes, you heard it right. Well, technically we didn't do that but eh...semantics. Simply put, Chrissy and I seduced him. Not the other around. We're both too pretty to be denied so he caved in and we've been happy since."

Sergio looked as if his soul just left his body. He paled and shook his head, desperately trying to erase her words from her memory but couldn't.

And still, even after all this, Erica was still not yet done.

"What can I say, he's cooler and more handsome than you or any of my suitors so far. More importantly, he's a gentleman...he knows how to treat a lady, respects my space, doesn't force me to do anything I don't like, and genuinely cares about me, not just because I have big tits. He's so much better than all of you combined."

heart shattering sounds

**

"Oooh, that poor thing." Floyd winced.

"I can hear his heart breaking from all the way here." Darwin added.

"Well, he was asking for it." Francis blandly commented.

"Mn. That little shit's obnoxious anyway." Elric nodded sagely in agreement.

Meanwhile, Cedric felt flustered but he expertly hid it. Chrissy giggled at his side.

**

"...no! No! I don't believe it."

"I don't care." Erica sneered. "I never cared about you or what you think. Believe whatever you want to believe."

Sergio was hyperventilating at this point.

"Hmm...what else? Aha! Yeah, he's also very rich and generous. He's a homeowner, has a car, and pampers the both of us a lot. I'm actually tempted to call him Sugar Daddy. Sadly, he doesn't like it."

"He's also very smart and very strong. I mean, he perfected the Written Exams and was ranked 1st amongst the freshmen. A true Rookie Prodigy. His status is something that someone like you could only ever dream about."

Cue in blood-coughing sounds

**

"Damn! She's not holding back!" Darwin was shocked.

"Kyahaha. This is gold! Man, if this happens at every Ranking Matches, I would honestly prefer being rejected by my girls." Francis commented.

"So you did get rejected." Chrissy quipped.

"Shut--!"

**

"Stop this! This...this isn't you!"

"Oh? 'Stop' you say? Uttering that word means that you understand what it means. But...huh? That's strange. Why is it then when I'm the one who tells you that you don't do it?"

"Eh? That's weird. We both mean the same thing and I'm pretty sure I told you to stop hundreds of times already. But did you do it? No, right? And somehow you're expecting me to listen to you because 'you' said it?

Eh, that's a bit unfair, no?"

"You know that this isn't helping your case, right? It just proves that I'm right so far...that Cedric is far better than you could ever be. Knowing that, why would I ever waste my time on you?" Erica scoffed.

**

"Preach it, Babe!" Chrissy squealed right next to Cedric - who's really red right now because of Erica's indirect compliments.

'Shit, am I into this?'

Twitch

'...shit, I think I am.'

**

Sergio felt weak. He feels the world spinning around him. He couldn't even refute her words.

Looking at him, Erica just sneered and decided to launch the killing blow.

"But do you know the best part about him, Sergio? Do you wanna know?"

Dread filled Sergio's heart. He felt a great sense of crisis that made him want to flee as far away from here as he could. However, he felt too weak to do so.

"It's his dick." Erica whispered softly at him.

Sergio blanked out for a moment there before he felt the world crashing down on him. He looked at her in disbelief but Erica wasn't having it.

"Yeah, you heard me. His dick is really amazing." Erica giggled, "It's so big, hard, veiny...it reaches places I never knew existed. It's simply the best. What's better is that, he knows how to use it. He always leaves us writhing in delight, leaking with his precious cream on his bed whenever we do it."

"Honestly, I don't think I could live without that anymore. Do you understand it now? Against him...you just couldn't compare."

Sufficed to say, that...ended the match right then and there.
