Cursed Signium

In the following battle, Ezio's opponent from Prometheus's Suffering thought Ezio was benevolent because he didn't kill Hu Bai and acted haughtily. Since he already swore he would make them pay, and the kid was arrogant, Ezio ended the fight in a flash.

Although the kid had a decent ability with Fire Element, he was worse than Feng Jiao. But because his opponents were weaker, he was able to get to the top 10.

With that fight, Ezio was finally in the top 5. There was only one thing that could prevent him from going into the domain now and that was dying or getting crippled. Xiao Chen must have sensed that because his face was sour.

"Number 1, Number 24. To the stage."

Ezio jumped to the stage with a smile as he looked at the audience. His eyes locked with Xiao Chen and he felt satisfied. The more that bastard seethed, the happier Ezio got.

Soon, his opponent also came and stood across from him. The teen across him looked at him with murder in his eyes. This was normal, after all, Ezio killed his opponents before, but never from Demeter's Blessing. He had pink-purple hair and purple eyes, which wasn't common for locals. He was probably from outside.

"Ezio, please teach me." Ezio didn't mind the look and acted mannerly.

"You kill your opponents like street animals. But you are also a dog, so don't blame me when I kill you." The teen said.

"Adrian!" A shout came from the audience. Ezio recognized the voice, it was the Sect Leader of Demeter's Blessing. Obviously, she didn't want to escalate things to affect her relationship with Aodhfionn.

"Even my master protects you." The teen looked angry. It was obvious he had an inferiority complex. "Why?"

"Look, kid. I like Grandma, so I will go easy on this fight, but don't bring your emotional package in this shit, okay?" Ezio said with a sigh.

"You will go easy?" The kid looked mad. "You are so arrogant. Ever since the banquet I wanted to kill you because of your words. You don't get to act arrogant in front of me. ME! I am 19 and I am at the peak of the Qi Solidification Realm. I am a genius! I was adopted by the sect but by the time I was 7, The Sect Leader made me her disciple. I will prove to you that your arrogance is empty and your Signiums are futile."

Ezio looked at the teen with his mouth open and wondered where this weirdo came from. Before he could ponder though, the knight started the fight. Ezio was serious when he said he would go easy on the kid. After all, he was Grandma's disciple, and despite his faults, he would forgive him.

But before he could think any of that, the kid appeared in front of him as if he teleported. As a result of the misconception he had formed in his mind, he did not expect this kid to have a Signium other than the Earth element. After all, so far all the disciples would have the main element of the sect.

Adrian, on the other hand, was different. The Signium on top of him was blazing with a dark green hue. Obviously, it was very close to the peak of the Fourth Curtain. The cheetah with the darkness element!

Ezio activated the wings and Star Chaser as he kicked the ground. Just as he did, a sword cut where he was standing vertically. If he were to stay there, he would be cut into two pieces. This kid was not fooling around.

"Tch!" Adrian scoffed in irritation. Darkness Element covered his body as he melted to a puddle of dark liquid. The dark puddle on the ground grew bigger and bigger until it reached Ezio. He didn't know what would happen to him if the darkness touched him so Ezio jumped into the air with the help of the wings.

He luckily did, because in the next second, tens of dark spears rocketed upward. It would be a deadly attack if he couldn't jump more than five meters.

When the spears returned to the dark pool, Ezio, who was 10 meters in the air, stood upside down in the air and lightning covered his whole body. The currents of purple lightning flowed towards the tip of the dagger and condensed there. When he fell face first towards the darkness, he stabbed it into the pool.

"ARGH!" A scream reverberated as the dark pool vanished. Adrian once again appeared on the stage. "Bastard!"

His second Signium flared on top of him. This one was also from the Fourth Curtain, but the energy it was giving was nefarious. For a second he thought Adrian too could hide the level of his Signiums because the energy it was emitting was suffocating.

"That is a cursed Signium, be careful." A voice warned him. Ezio looked at the audience and saw his master was looking at him in worry. He wanted to ask what a Cursed Signium was but he couldn't. Luckily a voice in his mind saved him the trouble.

"Cursed Signiums can only be acquired by bloodline or a title. This kid's ancestors must have done terrible things, thus their whole generation is cursed." Aodhfionn said, "Like mah good titles, there are also evil titles. When ye acquire an evil title, it changes ye. That kid is unstable, it must be because of that.

Although Ah am saying evil titles, they don't do damage, actually, some of them are stronger than good titles. Ah don't know who this kid is, but be careful lad, he is strong."

Ezio curtly nodded as he looked at the Signium. It was humanoid but there were two horns at the head of the creature. Its red eyes were burning with nefarious light. Instead of human legs, the creature had hairy legs with hoofs. It looked like a devil.

There were black mists swimming around this creature, but that wasn't all. The green fire was blazing on its tail which was in the shape of a snake.

"You asked for it! Now you shall get it!"
