Sacrifice: Time of Mine

Moments earlier, right after Old Maytan put up a sound barrier for Avion, Tamya spoke, "No matter how strong you are, that will be nothing after I steal it!"

"Hehehe.... hahaha..."

Meanwhile, Mettany was still busy fantasizing while building up the power within.

"Hmph! Later, you will not laugh as much as now!" Tamya didn't have her usual kind smile.

She was searching for the ability of the Conditioned Elesk Envy.

'I could feel it. I also understand why I was sent to learn under Grandma Siena. We almost have the same ability. However, hers is second-rate and if I grow further, she is nothing in front of me.' a cold smile flashed on her face.

"Ready yourself! Whatever you hold dear, I can take it, guinea pig!" a book then slowly came out of Tamya's body. It was filled with negative energy that those who are weak enough were feeling sick.

Meanwhile, Sheran felt disgusted, however, she want to see for herself what kind of ability Tamya has. Also, it was not like she could attack Tamya all of the sudden.

Seeing that Mettany was still not listening, Tamya felt irritated. She also felt that she was not herself. However, she didn't give a thought to it.

"No matter how you get stronger, it's useless. The stronger you are, the more strength I can steal."

Mettany's ears caught this and opened her eyes with a brow raised.

"What do you mean?"

"Finally back to your senses?" Tamya lightly laughed, "You didn't hear wrong. I can steal your strength. I can take whatever I want as long as I desire it. As long as you fill me with that desire!"

The book finally got out of her body and before she activates it, she continued, "But don't worry, I will not take your strength. That wouldn't be fun. I actually like your silver hair. I envy it, why don't I take it together with your head?"

Mettany's eyes widened and with the sense of danger filling her, she pounced at Tamya with a true Rank Bih strength. A strength that she can barely control.

"Too late!" Tamya shouted and raised both arms.

The dark book popped and the ability of her Envy activated.

Mettany saw what appeared on Tamya's arms so she had no choice but to use everything she had to swerve midway and not hit them.

Not able to control the strength, Mettany slid out of the stage, making it her loss. She then stood up without a wound on her body. After all, that fall wouldn't hurt a Rank Bih defense. But filled with anger instead, she pointed a finger at Tamya.

"You! What does this mean!?"

"...."

Coming back to her senses, Tamya laughed, "HAHAHA! This is my grand plan for my victory!"

Avion got down from her arms and asked, "Tamya, are you okay? Your eyes seemed to be swirling...?"

"Huh... yeah... goodbye."

Before anyone could say anything, Tamya jumped off the stage and ran off, entering the labyrinth before locking herself up. She only left the words, "I am not a slut!"

After so much happened, the match finally ended.

The host was excited to end this event and call it a day. 

"The winner, Avion Teller and Edora!"

Sheran, Old Maytan, and the others clapped while the others who eavesdropped and heard about Avion said pondered.

'Are they tricking us?'

Meanwhile, Flasse had a different perspective found it interesting, "Avion Teller, is he perhaps... the son of Theumos Teller? How can this be? I clearly heard that Theumos Teller is pursuing a woman. Did they already have a child?"

He decided to keep watch to see what will happen next.

After the battle, the people were shocked at how it ended. The outer audience was pretty disappointed at the supposed climax while the noble was celebrating his son not being there.

However, he later learned that Tamya killed his son as well.

As a result, although only Avion and Edora won, Mettany and Tamya were expected to move up as well for their outstanding prowess. They were only excluded for the reward.

The reward was a special request. Edora's request was for Avion's night visit.

Avion has a request too. If he chose to deny the other winner's request, it would  just nullify each other. Wanting to save that request, Avion didn't have a choice, he went to her room.

"I'm sorry, something must've gone into my head."

"Tsk!" Edora clicked her tongue in annoyance.

"It's fine, people sometimes want to kill others." Avion consoled Tamya, who was lowering her head.

"I think that's true but normally, they wouldn't do it." Mettany commented.

"That's right. What if Tamya didn't make a mistake and your fight continued? Either of you could've have died."

"Sorry..." Mettany and Tamya apologized.

Avion did come, however, Mettany and Tamya have heard of it and came as well. That was the primary reason why he agreed in the first place.

"Why are they here, ruining my reward?" Edora murmured as she looked out the window but was actually watching the reflection of the three around the table.

However, at the next moment, Avion unexpectedly said, "Okay, I still have a job to do. You girls should go back to your rooms now."

"Eh...?" not Mettany and Tamya, even Edora was shocked.

"I still have to fulfill Edora's request so I have to stay." Avion continued.

"N-no... didn't we talk about that I would get your virginity first?" Mettany's eyes became teary.

"..." a black void formed on Tamya's face.

"That's not how virginity first... a-and Tamya, stop being scary!" Avion sighed, "Stop worrying, although Edora's a huge pervert, she's a huge masochist as well. All I have to do is hit her a few times and we'll call it a night."

Mettany and Tamya's expressions shifter from unknown to "Seriously?"

"Wawa-why'd you tell them!?" Edora shouted, feeling her dignity vanishing.

"Oh..." without further ado, Mettany and Tamya stood up and got out of the room.

Closing the door behind, Mettany suddenly muttered, "Actually, I'm kind of curious what they will do. I need to see what they will do, what if he will cheat on me!?"

"You two are not in a relationship for him to cheat in the first place..."

Tamya commented before they decided to peek from another spot.
