Unwinnable Fight (2)
Unwinnable Fight (2)
Despite his injuries, Moby dashed out of the dust cloud to go on the offensive, using his demon energy claws to combat Damian's ability.
"Heh heh, come on! That's it! That's the face of anger and desperation I was looking for!" Damian screamed with an amused laugh, blocking all the incoming attacks from Moby's claws before countering with an attack of his own that Moby barely managed to dodge before another energy limb came up and punched him in the stomach forcing him to grunt in pain but not give up his attacks as Damian chuckled maliciously at him.
Moby and Damian continued clashing over and over again, Moby always on the losing side, taking damage little by little each time. A slash on the knee, a wound on the shoulder, a scar on the cheek, and many other minor wounds littered his body that eventually built up into an immense pain, making him heavily pant and grunt in frustration as he was getting absolutely nowhere with his attacks, falling on one knee due to all the accumulated injuries.
It was almost like Damian was just playing around and toying with Moby, not even bothering to use his full strength as he seemed to be having too much fun playing around with him like he was a toy.
"Hahaha! Yes, Damian! You put on a nice show! Now end it!"
"You showed him whose boss! Finish him off!"
"Yes! That's my son! That's the way to do it! Ahahaha," Damian's dad cheered for him enthusiastically from the stands.
"You wanted me to put on a show! I gave you a show! And I will now end it! This little arrogant weakling will finally be put in his place and be ruined for life!" Domain screamed, addressing the crowd, punching the air above him declaring his victory before focusing his attention on the clearly tired and injured Moby.
"Moby! I know that you can do it! Never give up!" Jayden screamed at him from the stand above, making Moby look up at her with his glowing purple eyes only to see a clear worried expression and tears in her eyes along with Alex and Abby who were sitting beside her just as worried.
'It's okay my daughter, it's for your own good, this is the last time that you will be seeing him… You don't need a trouble maker like him in your life my dear… He will only drag you into unwanted trouble due to his arrogance...' Mason thought, looking at Jayden with a heavy heart.
When Moby saw the faces of his distressed friends, he immediately regained his lost vigour, tightly gripping his sword, slowly limping towards Damian with an angry look on his face.
"Haahhaha! What do you think you're going to do to me in that sorry state of yours! That's right! Nothing! It's over! Now taste defeat you arrogant prick! Know your place!" Damian said, thrusting his sharp spider limbs towards the heavily injured and panting Moby.
However, when the attack was about to hit him, he immediately disappeared from his place which greatly startled Damian as he did not expect such a thing due to Moby's heavily injured state.
When he looked down in front of him, he saw something he did not expect at all.
Before he knew it, Moby had already been standing in front of him, his sword glowing with an astounding amount of mystical purple aura, slashing towards his chest with immense force and a look of tremendous resolve on his face.
Damian's calm and collected facial expression immediately shifted into something much fiercer and uglier than before as he tried his best to block Moby's attack. However, he was already too late as Moby caught him completely off guard which didn't give him enough time to react.
"This is what you get by toying with me and taking me lightly! Which arrogant prick will be put in his place now!?" Moby screamed loud enough for every in the arena to hear as his demon energy enhanced sword pierced through all of Damian's armour and flesh, creating a deep, almost fatal slash mark across his chest, completely knocking him out.
'WHAT THE FUCK JUST HAPPENED! HOW THE FUCK DID HE LOSE!' Where the thoughts of everyone in the crowd, Mason and Joseph included.
"This is bullshit! What the hell! This is completely rigged! How the fuck did he lose!"
"Brandon! You sly little bitch! You told your son to lose on purpose didn't you!"
"Yeah! Are you trying to scam us! Give us our money back!"
"Hahaha! Losers! You should have bet on the underdog! I never actually thought he was going to win but I am so glad I bet on him anyway! haha! I am going to be even richer!"
"Wawawa what! Please calm down! This wasn't supposed to happen! I had no intentions of making him lose or rig the fight! Use a lie detector on me I don't care! I swear I am telling the truth…" Brandon Nier nervously said, trying to appease the angry mob as even he still could not believe what was happening.
'... What did I just see…Did that stupid little prick really just lose by holding back and toying with his enemy… How lucky is this Moby guy… What the hell…' Mason inwardly thought, his mind malfunctioning from what he just witnessed.
"HE WON! HAHAHHA! I knew he could do it!" Jayden celebrated, jumping up and down in excitement with Abby while Alex was still sat in his chair with a smile on his face, trying his best not to burst out in laughter.
"Hey! Dad! Are you not going to announce the winner of the fight?" Jayden asked Mason who had a completely dumbfounded look on his face, making him snap out of his thoughts and back into reality.
"Oh yeah, I still need to do that don't I…"
"The Match is over! Moby Kane has defeated Damian Nier with a powerful and unexpected deep slash to the chest that caught him by surprise!" Mason announced to the crowd, making them go even crazier than before.
However, unlike last time, no one dared to object or voice their opinion towards Mason Griffith as they did not want a repeat of what happened to them the last time they did so. However, they still could not hide the discontent and angry looks on their faces.
"*Sigh* I know you all have many thoughts running through your mind at this moment. First things first. No, Moby Kane did not cheat or use any underhanded tactic, I made sure of it myself, he won fair and square. Second, Damian only lost because he toyed too much with his enemy and let his guard down! Take this as a lesson in why not to be arrogant! I will make sure that all bets are 100% upheld! I hate when people make claims and talk big, making bets only to not follow through on their promises. This was indeed a very intense and entertaining fight! If you have any concerns regarding anything, please don't be shy and ask away!" Mason announced to the crowd with a smile on his face, making them go absolutely silent, holding in all their bottled up emotions.
"Son! What the fuck are you doing! You had him where you wanted him but you threw it all away! You fucking disgrace! You ruined everything!" Brandon screamed like a lunatic at his clearly unconscious son, tears falling down his face.
Moby stood on the battlefield, completely battered and heavily panting. He used almost every last drop of his demon energy to do his final attack. Of course, he pretended to be unable to fight in front of his opponent in order to give him a false impression, only for him to speed up last second and go in for a finishing move when his opponent least expected it.
However, in this case, his opponent fully expected it…
Even though Moby just won and put his hands up in victory with a smile on his face, he could not help but inwardly feel extremely sad as he stared at Damian's unconscious body on the ground. However, for his plan to work it had to be done, no matter how much it pained his heart to do what he did. It was the only path to victory.
