My Succubus Harem System

Chapter 138 138 - Mask





The world closed in on Ryan, as if nothing else mattered. As the scythe approached his body, the seconds ticked by at a slower and slower rate, until there came a point where the scythe stopped inches before completely severing his body. 

In one of his eyes, the possibility of what was going to happen began to loom like a movie. Either the attack would be stopped and he would be given up as the loser, or he would deflect, or he would counterattack by taking advantage of the proximity. The number of possibilities had diminished significantly, as if his mind understood that he could only observe a few minutes into the future.

Now without the stress and headache he was having, Ryan took advantage of the break in time to think, and shaking his head he already knew what should be done. Time began to flow with normal speed again, and before the scythe sliced through his abdomen and chest, with one of his hands Ryan launched a fireball at his opponent.

The explosion threw them both backwards, creating the distance needed for him to reorganize himself and start thinking about what should be done next. The masked opponent stood still for a few seconds as he placed one of his hands on his face. The white mask he was wearing had broken, so, pulling it off with one of his hands, he used shadow magic to keep his own face hidden from everyone.

A black smoke billowed out of the hood, forming a mask that resembled an obsidian-shaped wolf skull. This only gave Ryan's opponent an even more terrifying sight, and even without hearing the voices of the audience, it was easily discernible from the looks on the faces that much of the audience was uncomfortable with that mask and that posture.

Joining his hands, the masked man made two vortexes of leftover magic, and with one swift movement he launched two gigantic spinning spheres towards Ryan. The attacks came out cutting the wind, but the distance gave the two a little time to think about what they could do.

The arena was cold and silent, breathing slowly, he looked down at his hands and concluded in seconds what he should do. Snapping his fingers, he created a gigantic sphere of water in front of his body. The water turned into a solid shield that protected Ryan from the two attacks that came flying towards him.

'The arena is cooled, the air is humid enough to have a fairly significant stock' he concluded with a smile. With one of his hands, Ryan launched several water spines towards the masked man and with a quick movement of his feet, launched himself towards him while channeling some demonic energy.

'I don't have that much energy in my battery, but mana I have plenty of. I can't activate the black flames for long...' The water arrows flew out quickly and soon after, Ryan launched a wave of shadow fire that consumed the shadow attacks that the masked man kept launching.

One after the other, the two dodged and launched powerful long distance attacks. With each second, it was becoming evident how significantly longer this battle would be than expected, as the two possessed a relatively large mana battery. 

One of the blasts hit the masked man in the head, breaking the skull that was in front of his face. Before his face was revealed, the masked man created another mask in its place, this time in a shape resembling that of an owl.

With a quick movement of his hands, he launched several shadowy feathers toward Ryan, who had part of his shoulder and legs cut off by the attacks.

"That attack was powerful... But keeping that mask on must be wearing you down a bit on mana. You know I can wait for your energy stock to run out."

"Huh" The masked man replied with a sound, as if he didn't care. The voice seemed to be being modified by magic, as there was an echo as if it had come out of a robot's mouth. Joining hands, several wolves began to emerge from the masked man's back, one after the other they began to run towards Ryan.

The amount of monsters only increased every second, even exploding them with dark fire attacks, the creatures kept advancing. Soon the arena was infested by a pack of shadowy creatures, easily passing fifty wolves of varying sizes.

Raising his hands, the masked man ordered the creatures to attack at once. The first wolf ran up and bit Ryan's arm, piercing his flesh with sharp teeth. Then another one bit one leg, another attacked the other. But two wolves came up and attacked his arms, a smaller one lingered on one of Ryan's shoulders lacerating his flesh.

"You'll need more" he said with a smile. Channeling the remaining demonic energy he possessed, Ryan activated his Demon Form. His entire body began to catch fire with intense dark flames that were different from the dark energy the masked man was using. 

Ryan's fire was black and white, with some blue details. Then the audience jumped in surprise as the black creatures with a color that resembled oil began to crumble and burn. The flames consumed each of the wolves, which fell to the ground melting as if they were made of plastic. 

In a second a puddle of this black, slimy material appeared, and with slow steps the masked man walked toward Ryan. With each step of the masked man, it was possible to see how the sticky puddle was sticking to his boots. 

Taking advantage of his demon form, he leaped backwards, stepped away, and then touched the ground. Within seconds the flames spread all over the black liquid, burning the ground and using that as fuel to burn even more. But the masked man didn't seem to care about the fire or the heat of the flames.

Again, the masked man disappeared and reappeared in seconds in front of Ryan. Extending one of his hands, the masked man's black leather glove touched his injured shoulder. 

Ryan's eyes flashed with the vision of the future and he quickly kicked the masked man in the legs. His leg cut him in half, as if the masked man was a doll made of some kind of goo, and taking advantage of his fire aura, the flames completely consumed the body of that mysterious opponent.I think you should take a look at

"Hah, you're interesting" he said, looking at his own disintegrating body. Every second, the flames consumed and disappeared, destroying the masked man's clothing. But it was evident to Ryan that he was made entirely of a different material

"Are you a puppet?" he shouted, as he stepped back. With one swift movement of his hands, Ryan created five spheres the size of cars

The masked man just shook his head, and seconds later, he was attacked by one of the spheres of light. As soon as the first Judgement of the Sun hit his body, the shadow disappeared as if on fire with the brightness. 

'So he really is weak against light? I thought that didn't happen'.

But as soon as the second sphere of light approached him, a gigantic dragon head appeared in front of that man's body. With a single bite the head swallowed the attack and swallowed that sphere of light with ease.

"Your magic is delicious, Whitemane" said the masked man, with a voice that echoed like hundreds of people talking at once.

With a confused look on his face, Ryan tried to think about what might happen. But before his mind overloaded with strategies, his eyes saw the future once again. With the rest of the spheres created by the Judgement of the Sun he created a much larger sphere, channeling his energy more and more, Ryan launched the attack with a size so large that it almost touched the floor and ceiling of the arena.

Then the masked man opened his overcoat and revealed several tentacles that flew towards the sphere. Again, he was going to swallow the light that was thrown towards him. But before this could happen, Ryan's eyes already gave the answer to what he would have to do. Closing his eyes, he launched himself into that sphere of light, cutting it in half. 

In Ryan's hand, a concentrated sphere of Light was charged with a significant portion of his mana. That small sphere the size of an apple was much more powerful and energetically charged than the gigantic one that flew towards the masked man.

Not understanding what was happening, the man with the hood and the owl mask just accepted the first sphere. And with ease, all that energy was consumed by the shadows. 

But before the masked man could react, Ryan appeared in front of him with a sphere of light. As soon as that small sun came in contact with him, the mask and overcoat disappeared, burning with the intensity of the light.

The attack was fast and precise, completely eliminating the shadows that surrounded the masked man's body. And falling to the worn ground, the person behind that coat revealed herself as a beautiful shadow mage.

"You won this time" she said, glaring at Ryan who was holding her up, keeping her from falling to the ground.

"Your costume was really convincing" he said, looking at the girl.

Then she reached up and pulled him by the head, the duel ended with a kiss. Tired and lacking mana, the masked girl collapsed in Ryan's hands.
