Everything will be my way!

Chapter 547

The situation at the tournament was heating up. The deal between Valkyrie and Lanatelle! No one dared to think of such a thing. Everyone was wondering what they had agreed on during that pause. Alas, no one knew how to listen to telepathic messages. Another thing is important: it is quite possible that no one will become a direct disciple today! Since the empress agreed to such a condition, she was certainly offered something very tempting.         

    

Stein tensed the most. He bet everything on this tournament, even bought expensive breakthrough medicine with his family's money, but it turns out that if he loses to her, then he will not see the title? Where did this bitch come from?! Why the hell is she ruining all his plans?! But something else is even more terrible: why did the empress agree to this dubious scam?!     

In fact, Kyon was even happy about this situation. Defeating Valentine, with whom he is separated by a gap of 28 stages and who also wields a hammer, is certainly more difficult than defeating Valkyrie, because she has an advantage of 22 stages. But something told him that this fight would still be one of the hardest for him.     

«In that case, I'm ready to face my first opponent.» – Valkyrie smiled so charmingly that the hearts of many viewers began to beat faster.     

The young people, having received a mental order, left the arena. Only Asagi remained.     

The patriarch of the Hunters excitedly said: «Lady Valkyrie, it is a great honor for me to fight you… I promise I will do my best!»     

«Show me what the empress' senior disciples are worth.» – Valkyrie sang with a challenge.     

Asagi frowned. The girl put a lot of responsibility on him with her words. Now, if he loses humiliatingly, then Lanatelle's authority will also suffer.     

The audience also suspected an unkind hidden intent in the girl's words. Obviously, Torres is not afraid of the empress because of her patron, but her behavior is still unacceptable. Why does the master responsible for her allow this arbitrariness? People looked accusingly at Felix, but the old man ignored everyone, keeping a stony face.     

~ding~     

The signal for the start of the fight rang, and a protective barrier appeared over the arena.     

As soon as Asagi took out his ax, he saw a flash in the wonderful eyes of Valkyrie… He began to feel a strange numbness all over his body. There was a feeling that he had lost control over his limbs, or rather, it was forcibly taken away from him!     

Hunter's ax fell to the floor with a crash. With a glassy look, the blond raised his hands, clenched them into fists and began to beat his head methodically and ruthlessly.     

~bam~ ~bam~ ~bam~     

Half a thousand spectators opened their mouths and bulged their eyes.     

Valkyrie arched her eyebrows in amazement and screamed: «What are you doing, fool?!»     

~bam~ ~bam~ ~bam~     

The elders of the Hunters turned deathly pale.     

Even Lanatelle frowned, clearly showing her displeasure for the first time.     

The melodic voice of Torres, reminiscent of the murmur of a stream, was filled with caustic notes: «Little blond, I'm here! You should be hitting me, not yourself! Or… Oh… Did you like me so much that you decided to help me? How sweet… But I'm sorry, you're not my type…»     

~bam~ ~bam~ ~bam~     

Asagi's face was already swollen, but he was still dispassionately continuing the process of self-flagellation. Each of his blows to his head seemed to put nails into the coffin of the Hunters.     

«Enough!» – Lanatelle spoke imperiously, and almost everyone in the hall shuddered with fear.     

The imperial representative hastily declared Valkyrie the winner.     

The sparkle returned to Asagi's empty eyes, and he collapsed to his knees, coughing convulsively.     

«Girl, you're crossing the line with such a mockery of my disciples!»         

    

«I-I don't understand you, empress!» – Valkyrie pulled her head into her shoulders with feigned fright. – «It's not my fault that your disciple is such a sycophant…»     

«Valkyrie, stop!» – Felix finally intervened. – «Lady Lanatelle knows that this is your handiwork! Apologize to her!» – he demanded with mock severity.     

«S-sorry… I won't do it again…» – Valkyrie squeaked guiltily, looking down at her toe, with which she drew lines on the floor, like a guilty child.     

The archmaster sighed wearily and shook his head - it was useless. There was as much sincerity in her apologies as there was salt in honey. The saddest thing is that she always gets away with all her tricks, and therefore she never paid for them, which is so important for her young age…     

Blushing, Asagi hurriedly left the arena. He will never forget this shame.     

Elsa, who heard the voice of the empress in her head, tensed up, but obediently headed towards the arena. Valkyrie hadn't made a single move yet, but the girl was already wary of her, as if she was the most dangerous opponent in her life.     

{If I defeat her, I will become a direct disciple… I have every chance, the main thing is to use a bow and not look into her eyes!} – Stone tried to calm herself down.     

«I see unlimited potential in you. What a pity it's dormant…»     

«How do you know that?!» – the archer was surprised.     

«This is a secret!» – Valkyrie cutely stuck out the tip of her pink tongue, and the following was already said by telepathy. – {«But if you want to try your luck, then come to my family, I will help. And don't worry, I'm not interested in girls.»} – she said the last thing, feeling that these words were important for the blonde.     

Elsa's heart skipped a beat from excitement. The girl in front of her is definitely not an ordinary person! If she manages to somehow activate the "Heart of lightning" body, then it will change her life.     

«Bunny, don't disappoint me in this fight.» – Torres kindly asked, gracefully straightening a stray strand of hair.     

Elsa didn't answer, just stood guardedly waiting for the signal.     

~ding~     

Stone instantly took out her bow and pulled a sparkling arrow to the string.     

In response, Valkyrie only stretched out her hand and began to lazily examine the nails…     

~BOOM~     

Suddenly, the bowstring burst, causing Elsa to almost have a heart attack.     

{This is the third weapon! What is it?!} – the girl wailed mentally. The bow is her main weapon, and without it she is ten times weaker! She has never changed the bowstring since the very purchase of the bow, and the consequence of this manifested itself at the most crucial moment…     

Only a few spectators recognized in this bow the one that "The Demon Huntress" took with her. They decided not to talk about their suspicions.     

With a dejected sigh, Stone took out her sword and rushed into battle. The best defense is a good offense. It is important to seize the initiative right away, otherwise she may not get such a chance later.     

~woof~ ~woof~ ~woof~     

However, Valkyrie dodged all of her attacks with the ease of a leaf dancing in the wind. There was not a hint of aggression or a desire to counterattack in her movements, by no means, it seemed that she was just having fun now, as her light confident smile eloquently said.     

Elsa didn't like it. The passive behavior of the enemy can weaken vigilance, and then even one counterattack will be fatal. The girl began to act more decisively: she covered the weapon with lightning sparks, and with each swing she sent a wind blade capable of cutting a steel wall into the opponent…     

However, it suddenly became clear that Valkyrie owns ether. The surface of her body was covered with a barrier that absorbed the residual charges of lightning and wind blades.         

    

Elsa's eyes flashed, and she activated the darkness, extremely effective against barriers…     

However, in response, Torres, without even raising an eyebrow, activated the element of light, thereby completely leveling the corrosive power of darkness.     

Elsa was feeling increasingly unwell. There was a feeling that she dutifully dances to someone else's tune. Valkyrie is on a completely different level. Only her insane speed is worth a lot. And Valkyrie's 6 fighting fists against her 4 ones do not leave the blonde a chance… If only the bowstring had not burst, then everything could have been different!     

{So that's how Kyon's opponents felt…} – Stone did not plan to give up so easily, continuing to use various powerful techniques, but nothing worked. Valkyrie effortlessly dodged everything, practically without expending energy. The complete invulnerability of Valkyrie weighed on her psyche like a hundred-ton rock.     

Elsa created an improvised lightning spear in her hand and threw it at her opponent.     

Valkyrie gracefully did a bridge pose, and so deftly that even in this absurdly uncomfortable position she allowed herself to serenely prop her chin with her palms and purr with a sweet smile: «Oh, I like it so much… Mmm…»     

The flexibility and grace of the guest from Saturn won the hearts of the male audience.     

«You're kidding me…» – Elsa was taken aback, feeling overwhelming despair.     

«Don't worry, bunny. I just don't consider you as an opponent.» – Valkyrie explained conciliatingly, waving her palm, which provoked the opponent even more.     

«Show me at least a little respect and take a weapon!» – Stone rushed into an even fiercer attack, completely neglecting protection, as if she wanted to force her opponent to fight seriously with all the strings of her soul…     

«Okay…» – Torres smiled even wider and tripped the blonde, and at the moment of vulnerability brazenly took away the weapon.     

Seeing her sword in the hands of her opponent, Elsa swayed. She treasured her name in society most of all, and now it is being ruthlessly dragged through the mud! She is humiliated like a helpless mouse… This made the girl feel so uncomfortable that tears welled up in her eyes. She wanted to sink into the ground.     

Valkyrie raised her thin eyebrows: «Are you offended? I'm sorry, I was joking… Take it…» – with a barely perceptible mockery in her voice and with an arrogant gleam in her eyes, she held out the sword with the hilt forward, wanting to return it to its owner.     

«GET OFF!» – squealed Elsa, releasing a tornado of blades. The words, actions, and even the look of the opponent pierced her pride. The bitch seemed to have deliberately struck a nerve… It was as if Valkyrie was deliberately pissing her off!     

«How rude…» – Valkyrie chuckled, releasing the blade of the wind with a slight movement of her hand, which cut the tornado in two. – «I can get angry…»     

{She also knows the wind…} – Elsa realized doomedly, then slowly straightened up and said dryly. – «I give up.» – after that, she disappeared to prevent anyone from seeing the tears rolling down her cheeks.     

«Thanks for the entertainment. It was delicious.» – Valkyrie thanked her, licking her lips contentedly.     

Kyon, who was watching this massacre, clenched his fists. Torres mocked the innocent girl who could not resist her in any way… She was mocking someone who was important to him! Incredibly, but now he wanted to hit Valkyrie on the pretty face even more than he wanted to hit Juno before enslavement! If the young blonde enjoyed hurting the defenseless, this bitch prefers humiliation. The parents and the master who raised her like that are no better than wild dogs. A child should never grow up in complete permissiveness, otherwise he will become fuel for a bioreactor.     

Lovr won't let it go easily.
