The Semi-Finals

Yudi - I HAVE AN RED EYE!?!?!?

Felix - Yeah you have, but I really dont know why

Yudi - It's very strange, it never happened to me before!

The red eyes slowly start to fade so Yudi decides to ignore it, although he was still curious about the situation.

In the battle of Nêmesis, Nêmesis won due to his opponent's forfeit, his opponent feared losing his position of nobility due to the influence that the Azevedo family had in the kingdom, as they were the ones who took care of Kai's army.

Nêmesis - Good luck with the sortition, Yudi, you know that you can't defeat me, your power is impressive, but I will still win this tournament.

Yudi - Don't forget, you can get hurt in these battles.

Nêmesis - I say the same.

Yudi - Touché

In the sortitions, Nêmesis draws Yudi and Dylon draws a noble with Improved Relflexes.

After the sortition, immediately, the semi-finals began.

Nêmesis finally would battle against Yudi for Nêmesis was a dream, he was very confident that could win against Yudi. In Yudi's point of view, it was an opportunity to show that the poor people could beat the nobles, be better than them.

At first, Nêmesis's parents were going to bribe Yudi's mother for Yudi to give up the battle just like he had done so far, Nêmesis stopped them because he wanted to fight Yudi and show how much better the nobility was.

So the first fight was the fight between Dylon and the noble with Improved Reflexes.

Dylon felt like his fight was an opening match and although he didn't like the idea of being used as an opening very much, he recognized that the battle between the two would be phenomenal, even though Nêmesis didn't fight because the parents bribed the opponents, Nêmesis did fight. against the soldiers of Kai's army for training and then to continue their training with the soldiers, Nêmesis' parents bribed opponents for Nêmesis to use their time to train with the soldiers of the kingdom. Yudi knew it would be foolish to underestimate Nêmesis' strength, as Nêmesis trained at five years old with Kai's army.

Dylon just before the fight finds his opponent getting prepared and says:

Dylon - Hope you can amuse me

Noble - Don't be so cocky, in the end, my family is richer than yours and has more influence than yours.

Dylon - I don't care about titles and money, in the end, power is what controls everything, it's what dictates who lives and who dies, that's power.

Noble - HAHAHA stop embarrassing yourself, everyone knows that money is power.

Dylon - That's what we will see in the arena.

Dylon positioned himself in the arena and the noble too.

Professor - BEGIN!

Dylon - I know what is your power!

Noble - What are you going to do about it?

Dylon - Easy! Water Dragon!

Noble - HAHAHAHA weak atta....

Dylon's Water Dragon hit the noble as he tried to avoid it with his Improved Relflexes, but the Water Dragon would chase him until it hits him. the noble goes to the ground and with difficulty getting up, says:

Noble - How....did....it....hit....me, it was not supposed to.

Dylon - HAHAHAHA this is power!!! WATER CLAWS!

Noble - I can easy dodge that, AHHH my leg!

The noble's leg was injured preventing him from using his Improved Relflexes and then taking Dylon's attack and falling to the ground passed out.

Dylon - I couldn't even warm up, weak noble.

Dylon finished his fight and the next one was Yudi's against Nêmesis, a battle everyone was looking forward to seeing.

Dylon got to the stands to see who will fight him in the finals.

When Dylon arrived at the stands, Yudi and Nemesis were already in their positions and so he waited for the start, what he didn't notice is that the battle had already started and both Yudi and Nemesis were being careful and waiting for the first move.

suddenly Yudi yells:

Yudi - Precision Style - Destruction 10%

Nêmesis - Fire Body!!!

Yudi's attack had been neutralized, in Yudi's precision style there needs to be a target and Nemesis turned his body into fire and could change his shape however he wanted so Yudi's attack didn't work with Nemesis.

Dylon - WOW! the fight already began I didn't even noticed.

Yudi - Good technique

Nêmesis - HAHA it is indeed, EXPLOSION!!

Yudi - Defensive Style - Destuction 10%

Nêmesis released the flames from his entire fire body, but Yudi created a defensive barrier around him to destroy any matter.

Yudi - Ughh

Nêmesis - You won't hold my fire for long!!

Yudi - Precision Style - Destruction 10%!!!

Nêmesis - That won't work, AHHH I'm stuck on the floor!!

Yudi - This time you were not the target of my Precision Style

Nêmesis - Just kidding, I can't stay stuck my body is made of FIRE!!

Yudi - I already expected this result, but it was good to buy some time.

Nêmesis - What?

Yudi - You didn't noticed that I'm close to you? Probably not, your vision must be blurred by the heat.

Nêmesis - What you gonna do close to me? your Precision Style dont affect ME!! WAIT WHAT IS THAT RED EYE?

Yudi - Area Style - Destruction 30%

Nêmesis - AHHHH!!!!

Voice in Yudi's head - little by little we go far.

Yudi - I've won this battle Nêmesis, now rest, you need it.

Nêmesis - ARRRGHHH! Bluh....

Nêmesis couldn't take the damage and had to go to emergency fast.

Yudi looked at the counter and pointed at Dylon.

Yudi - Do you really want to fight me? fighting me means more than a few scratches.

Dylon - Bring it on!!!

Yudi had his right eye red at that moment, everyone was confused about his eyes and why they changed color sometimes, but everyone thought it was only because he had 2 powers, everyone less Yudi's grandmother, Felix, and Dylon.

Felix thought that his eyes change color when he gets upset or angry, Dylon thought he got stronger when his eyes changed and Yudi's grandmother already knew that red eyes were his half-demon side taking control giving him power, and changing his personality like it was another person.

Yudi is half demon half human and that's why he has two different powers, but his half-demon side has been dormant these five years and is slowly awakening, when his half-demon side awakens, Yudi will have these three fates: Yudi will become a demon, Yudi will either become a human or Yudi will somehow strike a balance between the two parts and become someone new, with a huge boost to his powers.
