World Traveler

Chapter 23 - Trick tower part 2

3rd POV

"Oh finally my gest has arrived" said the large man when he sow Nero.

This man was very large in his structure, minimum eight foot or taller. His hands were cuffed and was wearing gray prison clothes.

Nero "wow you are big, are you related to Buhara or some thing. but then again you are not as fat as him"

The cuffs restraining him mad a {pup} sound and they fall of his wrists. He moved his armed back and forth stretching them with in humanly angles.

Nero (whistle) "you are quite the flexible fell aren't yah"

The prisoner "It has rely been a while since I got to flex my muscles a bite, how about you entertain me for a while. What do you say friend"

Nero "sure thing what are the rules" he said with smile.

The prisoner "to pass to the next stage of the exam you must pass through me first"

He then pointed to the ground and said

The prisoner "you see this place, this is my beautiful temple of death, every time I step in it, it demands a sacrifice of me. And now that there are two people in it, the conditions are satisfied. So the ritual can start"

Saying so he flexed his muscles ripping of his shirt, reviling a body bulged with muscles and vines. His expressions harden and he lowered his stance like a Sumo wrestler while facing Nero. He then said.

The prisoner "my name is Muudan, head priest of this temple, step forward and face your demise"

Nero "so it is a fight to the death then, I am game let's do this,"

Muudan "most excellent, I love it when a sacrifice has an oomph to it"

Monitor room

Lippo "looks like Muudan is as lively as ever" he said while eating a potato chip

The man next to him was silently watching the monitor screen without a word. He knew very well who Muudan is. A fanatic mass murder with a kill count of 78 confirmed kills and 40 in suspicion. Growing up as ȧss a traveling contortionist in a circus in his younger days. Later in his twenties he joined a cult, killing people kidnaping and killing people in duels. As formed of appeasement to their god, it took a black list hunter to bring this guy down. His most deviant weapon his is insane flexibility. Which should be impossible for a man of his size.

But he couldn't say for sure who will get out of this one. The applicant 24 showed them that he is no less of monster. And in fact maybe even superior. Whatever the case may be it will be decided when they both begin.

Back to the arena room.

Muudan "you can use weapons if you like." .

Nero smirked at what the man said. He looked at him and.

Nero "you clearly over estimate yourself there mister, the one who will be needing weapons is you, but on account of your curtsy I will give you one free shot, but a friendly advice you beter make it count cause the in next instant, your head will leve your body." He said with glare.

That that glare left him frozen for a second, Nero change form smug young man in to a wild beast ready to devour him in an instant with that glare.

Without any hesitation Muudan sprinted at Nero with all of his might. Trusting his solid fingers from low angel at Nero's jugular. His intentions were to end the fight swiftly with one attack. As his fingers touched Nero's neck a [crack!!] sound came from them.

Muudan "AGAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!"

Nero "you went for the most venerable part of my neck, an astute effort pal but that was your only shot, and it was a flop"

Nero "good bye"

And with swift motion from his right hand like sword, Nero cut the head of Muudan with extreme ease. His head did multiple 360's before landing on the sandy ground with a [Tonk] sound. Pine, disbelief, anger, and shook were displayed all over the severed head's face of Muudan. Not in a million years did he thought his life will end like this so swiftly without even having a fighting.

Nero ignored the dead body of Muudan and continued walking as nothing happened to the doped on the other side.

Nero {how far are we from the bottom floor alfa?}.

Alfa {we are have twenty more floors to cross to get to the bottom floor}

Nero {we better get going then} he said to alfa as he walked through the door.

Monitoring room

Lippo "….. Oh my, this guy is on another level!!, there is nothing in this place that can stop this guy, this is probably just a walk in the park for him"

"No kidding sir, that wasn't even a challenge!!" said the man next to him

Back to Nero

After that debacle with the prisoner Muudan Nero was fast on his feet to get thot the bottom floor. The obstacles he faced were not treating at all but some of them ere time consuming. Like trap doors, slipping gas, poisoned darts, extra. It took him 6 hours to get past the las twenty floors and get to the end point. He wanted to move faster but it could not be helped.

Nero "is it me or were the Procter blatantly making things harder for me}

Alfa {I can't say without knowing the other applicants experience I can't say for sure}

The stone door in front of Nero lifted up wards reviling a circular rom lit with torches. When he walked inside he heard a mechanical voice announcement.

"Nero applicant 24 is the second to pass time of ŀȧps 7 hours and 16 mints"

Nero "I am the second one to arrive?"

Nero {wait but that would mean}

Alfa {yes sir, it dose}

Hisoka "oh my!! Looks like I have someone to entertain me for some time now"

His guys, this chapter marks the end of the third phase of the exam.

The fun flightily parts are coming soon starting from the next phase of the exam,

When I write fight senesce I am a bite technical with lots of words and portraying everything a character dose and thinks in the fight.

It may look jarring at points, but least as writer that is one of my strong pint. (Well I may be wrong, but you guys liking it or disliking it are the deciding factor for it)

All in all I am having fun writing this story, and I hope you guys are having fun reading it.
