?Pov Rosane's:
Hey, I couldn't believe what I was seeing, I heard from my mother that they would use Creatures from the Abyss in this tournant, but I didn't think they would use so many, especially with their base strength being so high to the point of facing several Demigods, I can even feel so gaining intelligence showing that they are close to becoming Lords of the Abyss.
As if that wasn't enough, that boy still managed to gather hordes of enemies around him, including so of these almost Lords of the Abyss.
His Divine Incarnation is strong, but clearly, he doesn't know how to use his Essence fully or he's avoiding using it for now, I hope it's the second option or he won't have enough strength to advance to the next stage of the tournant.
That's when I saw sothing in the distance and left my place in the stands opening a portal to the place I saw only to run into Elizabeth who seed to be waiting for .
I was full of hatred and no patience to face soone so arrogant at that mont, even though I was an old friend.
"What are you doing?"?(I)
"Stopping a friend from making a mistake."?(Elizabeth)
"Elizabeth, even if I'm you, I'll tear her body into pieces if I have to advance."?(I)
"Rosane, this is not the ti for that, going through won't take you to him, it will take you to a eting with your mother and many restrictions sealing your body."?(Elizabeth)
"You know sothing, I can see it in your eyes...what is he doing here!?"?(I)
"I'm not sure about him, honestly I'm just as surprised as you, and I had to use a Divine Item to get to you so quickly, but I think everything in this tournant is pretty obvious."?(Elizabeth)
"Don't play your gas with , I'm not one of your sisters and I've known you for a long ti, you can't fool , so talk..." (I)
"I warned you..." (Elizabeth)
Sigh
Before I could say anything else I was pulled into a Divine Realm with Elizabeth sighing and disappearing from my sight, it seems that a God noticed what I did, and just as she said it intervened.
"(Now that I know where he is, I won't let him escape, even if I have to wait for the tournant to end...)" (I)

Pov Zenos:
When I ca back from the end of the second stage it was over and I still ca across a sad Natasha, she seed to be looking for throughout the second stage to have more chances to fight, she at least said that she found another Demigod to fight against her.
I spent the next few days of rest talking to my sisters and going to the Communal Temple to talk to the Goddess of Blood, which didn't do any good, I didn't discover anything new about the tournant.
After the rest days passed, the third stage began with the remaining 16 participants.
All remaining participants, including , et in the arena in the middle of the floating continent once again, the edges of the arena split into 8 smaller arenas that float higher before the tournant representative begins speaking.
"[This ti I not only welco everyone here, but I also thank you for being here to see this event with the 16 bravest among our competitors in what promises to be the biggest fight of all!]" (Malakoi)
"[So of you may still have questions about how the points from the previous stage were distributed, so I'll tell you here.]" (Malakoi)
"[The points were distributed based on the courage of the participants.]" (Malakoi)
"[Those who fought against Abyss creatures weaker than them will receive 0 points, those who fought against groups received from 1 to 10 points depending on the size and strength of the group, those who fought against Abyss creatures with the sa strength as them received 2 points and those who fought Abyss Creatures stronger than them received 5 points.]" (Malakoi)
The truth is that I was surprised by what I was hearing, I myself had these doubts about the allocation of points, especially after seeing the list of 16 participants, because there was Alan who was a Hero, 10 Demigods counting , and only 5 Minor Gods.
Alan was the only mortal who passed, my sister and I passed as well as the Demigod who spent 1 whole day, but I was surprised that the number of Minor Gods was so few, now it makes sense.
The stronger a participant is in the second stage the disadvantage will be greater, they were not just testing our strength but also our courage to face those stronger.
I, who fought against thousands of Creatures of the Abyss, accumulated many points because of this, so rica was at the top of the list.
"[Those in this Tournant who tried to save their strength or were afraid of facing dangers found their way out leaving the 16 bravest of the participants present here!]" (Malakoi)
"[The courage, strength, and wisdom of these 16 individuals regardless of anything else are comndable and worthy of respect!]" (Malakoi)
Now I understand what they wanted, there is no reason to test the strength of Deities, they wanted to test our courage, and that's why they didn't tell the rules before the second stage, if they had done that people would have acted according to the rules when they clearly wanted to an honest and natural action of individuals.
"(But that's weird, this whole tournant is more like a training camp than a real tournant...)" (I)
"(Wait...it couldn't...but it makes sense...maybe?)" (I)
"[Now with the matter of the previous stages resolved, let the third stage begin!]" (Malakoi)
With what he said, the space distorted to my space, so I feel my body pulled sowhere appearing in front of the sa bastard who tried to ambush in the second stage, the human pretending to be a Demon.
"We et again, child of the Blood Goddess."
"It seems so, I hope you don't run like last ti."(I)
"[The rules of the third stage are simple, leaving the opponent unconscious, making him give up, or killing him will define the winner, each arena works as a Separate Space making it impossible for any external interference or for either of them to be thrown out.]" ( Malakoi)
"[The matches will happen in sequence as soon as the last fight ends, the next pairs will be chosen randomly.]" (Malakoi)
This ti the rules were more extre, the longer a fight lasts the worse it will be for the winner who will be in worse condition in the next fight this basically forces us to end our fight quickly.
"< Ruling Territory >"
"< Ruling Territory >" (I)
In a fight against a Deity, the most important thing is to isolate him, the Territory of a Deity has his Essence passively, strengthening him much more than normal, it was sothing I learned in my training, being inside the Territory of an enemy Deity is be at an extre environntal disadvantage.
"< Chaos Star Garden >" (I)
"< Sin City >"
Our two Territories collide, each taking up half the arena before blending together, largely negating each other's effects.
"< Blood Eclipse Poison >" (I)
I saw him move as the landscape around us was in complete continuous change and I used my poison, using my Starfire to evaporate the blood from my body turned into poison into the surroundings, a young red miasma spreading in all directions.
"< Sin of Gluttony >"
To my surprise he stopped halfway opening his mouth where a strong suction took all my poison for him to swallow, I stopped creating the red mist and tried to control the blood particles he ingested, but I couldn't, it was as if there was nothing left of what he had just eaten.
"(I can't take any longer.)" (I)
I completely transform into a Dragon as I move towards him, I accepted that with this he wouldn't be able to dodge, but instead, he smiled at .
"< Sin of Envy >"
Suddenly his body transforms into the exact sa shape as mine, but his eyes were completely red while an Aura full of murderous intent exploded from his body.
At that mont she insisted on it being a short-range fight, our physical strength was equal in this state and that's why I didn't understand his decision until I felt the Demonic Energy in my wounds, it was so little that I didn't notice it at first, this energy was perated with power from his Authority and possibly his Essence as well, but I just smiled letting him think he was achieving sothing.
"< Sin of Greed >"
"< Avatar of Chaos >" (I)
Just as I expected, he was accumulating Demonic Energy inside and when he reached a certain point he pushed away with a powerful blow from his tail while two wings pushed back further away.
When he used his power and I felt the Demonic Energy inside react, I could feel this enemy energy trying to drag my power from inside , I could feel my Divine Weapons wanting to react, but I didn't allow it as it would reveal Niryna still sleeping inside the my Blood Core.
In fact, I was already prepared for this, my Starfire has the highest concentration of my Chaos Essence and I used these flas to consu the Demonic energy before making my blood that I spread through the wounds I made on the enemy explode his heart, a creature made of Blood and Starfire surging inside his body devouring him from the inside as he grew with each bite until there was nothing left but a large Leech where my opponent once was.
"[Zenos is the winner of arena number 6!]" (Malakoi)
