Infinity: Rising of the Soul Weavers

"Entertain me!" Kayla called out to her three terrified and shaking opponents that found it hard to make eye contact.

'Am I shaking?' the enemy leader thought to himself while inspecting his hands. 'How? Why am I shaking? I am a special S ranker, there's no need for me to fear a B ranker no matter how strong they are! 

'Yes she's just a B ranker! She is nothing! I am strong! I am strong and mighty, but why… 

'Why the hell?! My body, I order you to move! Attack! Attack her!! She's weak!' Yet, he could not move a single step. He was barely keeping his lungs functioning.

He had always depended on his special power that he had never expected a day where he'd have to fight using his fists. 'But why? Why do my powers not work on her? Who is she really?'

His powers were something out of a fairytale. They were extremely special and rare that they were ranked as special S. 

No matter how strong his opponent was, And no matter what their rank was, he had the ability to inflict various instant injuries onto them. This could vary from minor injuries that could merely be bothersome, to serve injuries that could be life threatening.

Although he himself did not understand the ins and outs of his special powers, he knew that he was meant to be a ruler. A king above all.

He was meant to take control of anything and everything. Everything was created to serve his needs. 

Or so he thought. 'Why?! How could this be?'

For some unholy reason, his supreme powers would not work on this dark purple haired girl. 

'Should I just give up? She's too strong! She'll hit us hard! It will be painful! I don't want to feel pain!' 

Watching the leader tear up as he fell to the ground with an expression that was pitiful, to say the least, Kayla opened her mouth in surprise and disappointment. 

"Oi," she called out with disgust. "Why are you sitting on your a*s? How can you call yourself a ranker? 

"Did you think becoming a ranker is as easy as drinking your mom's milk? Stand up! Fight!"

Hearing her soft melodic, yet terrifying, voice, the leader thought he was about to faint, and so did his two teammates.

"Aspiring to become a ranker means that you will have to fight strong enemies. You will be pushed down, you will be toyed with, and you will suffer, but you will still have to look strong and confident!

"What would you do when you graduate as a full fledged ranker? Will you sit on your a*s and watch people die? Disgusting! 

"You must be ready to fight until you die, if you're certain that you're a liability then buy some time for your team to retreat, aren't you the leader?" 

Kayla was disgusted after witnessing such an act. 'What a disgrace! Did he go through the same lessons we had to go through in my class? Is he an elite? 

'No wonder Raven is out there working hard to protect everyone on her own. The EDA rankers are quite lacking and would be nothing more than extra weight! What a joke…'

"Tch, useless idiots!" She was angry. The fact the Raven had to risk her life to do this idiot's job made her furious.

Looking at the leader shaking in the ground, she wondered about her next course of action.

Her anger and disgust aside, Kayla had used a lot of her energy to first analyse his skill and then create this battlesuit. There was no way she'd let the opportunity to test it slide by this easily.

Suddenly, she heard a weak voice trying to mutter something.

"I surren-" before having a chance to give up on the match and avoid the pain, a voice interrupted the leader.

"No you don't!" Kayla suddenly appeared in front of him in a mere instant and punched him in the stomach with strength that was enough to shatter a building. 

Naturally, her strength was highly augmented, so she didn't even need to put much force into the punch. The battlesuit did most of the work for her.

The leader coughed up a mouthful of blood before flying across the arena and hitting the wall, shaking the stadium and releasing a shockwave of dust that made everyone widen their eyes in surprise.

The crowd gasped before suddenly going from silent into ear piercing cheers. 

Although the impact looked quite divesting, everyone knew that there was no permanent damage to the participants, including the leader that was just blasted into the arena wall.

Many healers were present, including Ted Baker, who could even revive a person under certain circumstances.

Looking at the healers rushing towards their leader, the two boys were about to fall to their knees and cover their face since they knew that surrendering was not an option in the presence of such a beast.

*Sigh*

However, contrary to their expectations, Kayla sighed in disappointment as she dismissed her battlesuit. "Go ahead and surrender already. 

"I thought you were special after witnessing your leader's rather unique ability and got too excited, but you seem more useless than an open balcony on a plane…

"Do yourselves and everyone else a favour by giving up on becoming rankers. You just don't have it in you."

Waving her hand at them indifferently, she started walking towards her friends to check up on them.

One of the boys looked at his downed leader before clenching his teeth.

"Tch, you b*tch!" Taking advantage of Kayla's opening as she presented her back, he instantly summoned a spear that was made of pure white light. 

Plunging with the spear towards her heart with all his might, the boy yelled in anger and hatred: "Die!!"

The crowd instantly fell silent as a wave of anxiety and stress hit them. However, there was no need for that.

"Ah, no thanks, I think I'll pass," a voice called out from behind the boy as a hand clutched his neck. 

With a swift kick to the back of his knee, he fell to the ground on his knees while his throat was left exposed. He was being held in a position that instilled fear into the depths of his heart.

He was extremely vulnerable to any sort of attack. This was a position that made it easier to execute criminals with a sword. 

"How!??" The boy yelled, fear gripping his heart tightly, he hadn't expected Kayla to disappear from her spot and reappear behind him that quickly. 

Naturally, he hadn't realised that she had baited him. Furthermore, he was not aware of the fact that she was able to perform short range teleportation. 

No one knew, aside from Raven of course. For anyone else in the crowd, they had to assume that she was simply too fast fast for them to see.

However, Scott had a hungry smile on his face, although a part of him was terrified of this girl's potential. 'No, the real culprit is the crimson-purple haired girl…' he thought in awe.

He still remembered the time she had fought against Ramira. Although her suffocating aura wasn't directed towards him, he had almost fainted. 'I should be extremely happy that she's on our side…' he sighed with a forced smile.

 "Just what are you? I was sure I hit you with my spear!! How?" The boy continued wailing like a widow.

"I am not obligated to answer any of your stupid question," Kayla answered indifferently while delivering a swift blow to the biggest mana node at the side of his neck. 

The boy fell unconscious in an instant, hitting the ground with a thud. 

Looking towards his friend that was previously standing next to him, she found him unconscious as well, although she had not touched him.

Shrugging, she continued walking leisurely towards her friends; Shin and Amira.

"Ah- Ladies and gentlemen, we have a winner!" The announcer said after an awkward pause. "Team eleven has come out victorious in the quarter finals! They will proceed towards the semi finals!"

The crowd was still recovering from the shock so it took them a few seconds before bursting into happy cheers.

"Yo, how are you two doing?" Kayla asked her teammates with a smile. They were both getting treated by the healers.

The reason the EDA had allowed for such a level of violence was because the officials wanted the elites to understand that sometimes they'd have some broken bones. 

They wanted everyone to realize their weakness and know when to give up before it is too late. The reason Kayla was able to stop the opponent leader from surrendering without a penalty was because she was simply faster.

If this was a true war, and the opponent had delayed their retreat to the last moment, they'd simply be dead right now.

"We're perfect!" Amira said with a smile, before wincing as the healer applied some substance that made her wounds feel like a burning wildfire.

Kayla chuckled before looking at Shin who also nodded vigorously. "Thanks to you, we were able to win! Good job, as always!" 

His cheeks were burning red.

"Hehe, it's alright." Kayla smiled while trying to ignore his blushing face. "We're a team after all, you two did well by holding them off till I was ready, it's our win!"

Smiling, Kayla extended her hand forward towards the two of them. The two instantly put their palms on top of hers before smiling widely. "Team Eleven Go!"

"""Team Eleven Go!!!"""

The crowd repeated after them happily.
