"Participants of Kou seem to still be able to continue the fight!" Jorgez cried, making the audience excited to see Kou can do anything.
"I can't see it, poor Kou..." Megumi closed both her eyes.
"In times like these, Korrina should be able to see her successor become a great Legend who will not give up." Said Shira who was staring at Kou, she was hoping to see something new from him.
"It's not that he used to be so invincible because of The Mind, why isn't he using it now...? I haven't even been given a chance to attack since..." Shira.
Futabi went forward and kicked Kou but this time he was surprised by a white hand protecting him, Kou still pushed back but with a standing position.
"What was that...?! Is one of your ghosts again!?" Futabi exclaimed so that he avoided several attacks from Kouko who returned to his feet.
With his electric speed, he starts kicking Kouko backwards then unleashes a huge lightning bolt capable of knocking Kouko out of the arena, Kou starts to wipe the blood coming out through his mouth.
"Accept your limitations and shortcomings... Better to give up before receiving a big electric shock!" Futabi.
"My lacking...? It's bullshit!" Kou clenched both his fists then he raised his right arm so that a white arm began to appear behind his arm.
The white arm gave rise to a Keris that exuded a Crimson aura, making Futabi able to feel immense pressure even to the point of making himself goosebumps instantly.
"What's this...?! Why do I feel such great power!? I didn't feel anything from him!" Futabi said, he released some golden lightning towards Kou.
The kris instantly smashed all the magic into ordinary air, Kou started pointing forward so that the Kris darted forward and caused Futabi's right cheek to open instantly.
"Aaaaggghhh!!!" Blood flowed out through that wound on his cheek.
"Mama... Brother Haruka... Brother Honoka, it's time for me to grow up, act like you guys are so great." Kou started to put on a serious expression, trying to control the Astral behind him.
"I am the successor of my own Mama, that means I have to keep trying and fighting like her! Make the future so much better...!"
"...I want to be like my mom and obviously my two sisters!" Kou started pointing forward so that Keris was detached towards Futabi, he started dodging the attack and then released a huge lightning bolt towards Kou.
The lightning slammed into the sky before hitting Kou's body, because of the white hand behind Kou. Seeing Kou still survive like that, made Honoka feel relieved instantly.
"Grrrghhh!!! Fuck you!!!" Futabi unleashed some lightning towards Kou so that his body began to be enveloped with a white aura, Kouko reappeared and he held onto that Keris tightly now.
Futabi widened her eyes when she saw a girl with a hood guarding Kou from behind, Futabi's heart beat fast and felt scared at once to see the face behind the hood.
"I'm going to win this fight! As a Legend, I will continue to fight to overcome my shortcomings as well...!"
"Kouko!" Kou exclaimed loudly so that Kou darted forward towards Futabi who started to escape while releasing lightning magic towards Kouko who dodged all of the attacks.
"Damn...! Why don't all my attacks hit him now!?"
"It looks like Kou participants can control any object even to the point of making the sword feel like it is attacking its enemy...! How horrifying!" Jorgez cried hard.
Futabi darted towards Kou so that he crashed backwards before hitting Kou, he was surprised by the presence of a girl behind Futabi, Korrina, who pointed at him.
"That Touriverse queen...!?" Futabi widened his eyes so that his back received a single strike from the Keris, causing him to fall on the ground.
"This is my strength... Even though I'm full of flaws, at least I have Kouko to fight to protect myself and my own mind!" Kou exclaimed, he started clenching both his fists and pointed at Futabi.
"Kouko!!! Now!"
Kouko launches several attacks of Keris that are able to injure the entire body of Futabi even to the point of making himself unable to do anything but surrender.
His power and magic suddenly malfunctioned when he received one of these slashes, Kouko continued to attack him until he made a round and ended it by hitting Futabi's stomach until he fell from the arena.
"Well... Huh... Huh..." Kou was filled with sweat as he himself felt tired of fighting while being witnessed by many people.
"Pe... Per... What a terrible fight!!! Kou participants have won round five just by using Keris to drop!!!" Jorgez cried hard.
All of the spectators immediately cheered loudly and clapped their hands in satisfaction at the greatness of Kou fighting without moving his body.
Shira along with the others was immediately relieved when she saw Kou managed to win the fight, if in retrospect she did look like Korrina in terms of strategy and spirit.
"Haha... What I expected, I should have trusted him from the beginning." Ophilia.
"Hahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh... Kou, you're just making me worry." Honoka said as she patted her chest that felt a little sore.
Kou started waving his arms to the audience and then he walked away with Kouko who started to re-enter his body, the Keris he was holding disappeared instantly.
Kou when entering the room participants immediately get some welcome from his friend who gave himself a surprise that is a hug.
"Kou~ You were great to survive." Mitsuki.
"That's right... Turns out asking for Kou's help can fix things yes, luckily you still have that Keris." Minami.
Friends begin to do a small celebration, Shuan from afar smiles proudly to his own girlfriend that he can do it thanks to the help of Kouko and his spirit.
"It looks like Kou can still continue this fight as long as he doesn't go overboard in using his mind." Asriel.
"I hope that Kou will be able to meet with my Brother later, I want to see what kind of fight will happen later." Rokuro crossed his arms and looked out, seeing Morgan start to announce something.
"Because it is too late and night, the next match will be in the next tomorrow until the opening of the second match...! I hope the participants can rest in peace today."
The first day had ended just like that, a quite entertaining and thrilling fight would continue tomorrow morning, the spectators immediately rushed to order a lodger in the city of supplications.
***
The petition tournament continued smoothly without experiencing any obstacles even Shuan and his friends continued to experience victory.
For now no one loses because they always get enemies that are not so challenging that these 3 days have passed and the tournament has entered the end of stage 2 of the match.
Haruka stops time and kicks his enemy until he falls from the top of the arena, the last round won by Haruka so he can continue match 3.
2 More games and they will enter the semi-finals, Haruka returned to the audience and saw Morgan began to discuss the next game which began to be serious and fierce.
"The third match will be from now on..." Haruka said, she looked up at the screen.
"Sister, it looks like we'll meet in the semi-finals later if we can win the game three to five, don't waste it off guard." Honoka.
Haruka smiled seriously, "Ahh... It's also interesting to be able to fight you in the semi-finals later, I'm really looking forward to it."
"The second game is over, now we are going to enter the third game! Today there are still 3 rounds left before resting and it is likely that tomorrow we will enter matches 4 and 5."
All the spectators cheered loudly, feeling impatient for any fight that would happen next. The two strong participants will soon face each other and of course will be a fight that can entertain the audience.
Rokuro saw a part of himself in a moment, he was going against his friend Bakuzen and it was quite surprising as he was looking forward to the actual fight.
"Rokuro, it looks like we will fight early, I won't lose easily against you."
"me too... Let's fight with strength without having to hold back."
"Sounds fun..."
