Chapter 310 - Rise From Ashes
" It's over " said nightmare , as he prepared his strongest spell ..... The enormous blood dragon started to form over his head , as anticipation build up in the crowd.
Nightmare looked down on Rudra in pity ... He thought that he had surely won the fight at this point , seeing the dull and defeated face of Rudra, he felt a sense of satisfaction.
The blood dragon came tearing through the space towards Rudra , as nightmare looked on fondly at his destructive move!? , The entire crowd held their breaths at the magnificent move .... Not a single soul beleived that this would not be the finish of the match.
Not a single person ..... Except Rudra himself. Whose lips turned into a slight grin , as he looked towards the massive dragon approaching . Nightmare who saw this defiant face , had a chill sent down his spine , a bad feeling growing in his chest.
Rudra took the elven sword in his hands , and just when the dragon was about to eat him whole and shred him to bits. Rudra unleashed his long saved trump card .
With extreme zeal and focus , he said " FULLLLL COUNTERRR! ".
To the shock of everyone present in the audience , and the billions watching worldwide. The massive blood dragon's momentum halted clashing with the elven sword. As a intense vibration started to come from the sword .... In the next 3 seconds which seemed like an eternity , there was a stalemate , as nightmare and the audience watched with bated breaths , the outcome of this clash.
Then , in the biggest twist in eSports history , the blood dragon changed its direction , from towards Rudra to towards nightmare , and almost doubled in size!
With even more speed and power , the attack was returned towards nightmare , who became bewildered at the sudden change of events. The remnant dragon soul inside nightmare recovered more quickly than nightmare himself , and tried it's best to slow the momentum of the blood magic returned towards them.
However Alas all it could do , was slow it down a bit and not stop completely. The blood dragon devoured nightmare , as he was buried in the momentum of the dragon as it destroyed the floor of the arena. .
-56000! CRITICAL HIT!
Nightmare undertook unprecedented critical damage that made his HP go into critical position down to just a mere 5% . He was left absolutely in shock at the sudden reversal , from the start to finish he was in the blind about this move. He had never known Rudra possessed such a thing in his arsenal.
He looked in horror as he saw Rudra chug a advanced health potion in luxury , half an arena across from him , as he saw how Rudra's red HP bar regained a bright green vitality. While his own was now a very bright shade of red.
Their roles reversed in a matter of 20 short seconds!
----------
Derek Ray : I don't know how to speak anymore Lee , ARE YOU KIDDING ME , WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?? ....? What was that reversal? ... What was that move , that Shakuni used to reverse tha attack? ... How.. what .... Please someone explain .
Lee Dixon : well there is only one logical reasoning to all this Derek , and it sends shivers down my bones, Shakuni had planned for this exact moment since the start of the match Derek , or maybe even the start of the tournament. Never showing his hidden card , he absolutely played nightmare on walking into his trap. What an incredible comeback , indeed , it is a full counter.
Derek Ray : A 56,000 DAMAGE ! , Insane , absolutely insane , the roles are reversed Lee , Shakuni but has to deal a little bit of damage to seal the deal. A mere 30 seconds ago , I was convinced that this match was done for , yet 30 seconds later , the world has flipped upside down.... This is a once in a lifetime fight between two titans Lee , the two absolute best players in the world. This match .... This level .... Incredible. Simply incredible.
Lee Dixon : Will Shakuni win this match ? Or will we see another reversal ... You can't blink for a second in this Match , ladies and gentlemen , never before seen drama .... Remember you watched it live on cuber eSports network.
---------
The crowd went absolutely ballistic after Rudra's counter , as the entire arena was on its feet applauding and chanting Shakuni , Shakuni Shakuni , Shakuni. Everyone including Ethan Grey. Everyone loved the underdog , especially when the underdog surpassed unsurmountable odds. He came in the match , being seen as the definite looser , the one who was lightly cheered , however over the course of the match , he became the crowd Favorite , and he became the one everyone in the crowd supported , now they only wanted to see him win.
Ethan Grey had been convinced that Rudra had met someone stronger than him , when he was being brutally beaten back into a corner ... Especially when the large dragon came , he sighed thinking that here went his money down the drain.... That he would never stupidly bet on other people again , however the tables turned. Rudra pulled an incredible comeback , that left him stunned and awestruck.
When he saw Rudra calmly chugging down a health potion , as he could visibly see his HP bar going back up , he felt goosebumps all over his body .... What crafty planning , what incredible daring did Rudra have to pull this stunt off?
For the first time ever in his life .... Ethan Grey felt a slight fear and a lot of respect for someone in his life.
---------
Rudra looked into nightmare's eyes , as he calmly walked towards him , mimicking the same leisurely walk that nightmare pulled on him just a few minutes ago , giving him psychological pressure.
Rudra had delivered the physical blow , hence he decided to return the psychological blow too.... , Approaching nightmare he said " Soo .... How was draconia? ".
Hearing these words , a million questions arose in nightmare's mind , as he could feel his heart beating tightly in his chest. His expression revealing it all to Rudra .... Who knew his guess was on point.
For the first time since splitting his soul into nightmare's body , the ancient dragon Razia , felt a very wierd sensation ..... A sensation that he felt while facing the archangels themselves .... A sensation called.... FEAR!
