Ataraxia Abyss
Chapter 26: The King of Warriors

The two of them looked, Regal with the form of Satan and Gram in his hands, and Callen with the form of Angels and strong armor that can destroy everything in front of him.

When they both have their respective advantages, Legal with Vis and Callen with their elements. But this time Regal made modifications to Gram...

Everyone saw a light appear from Gram, and when the light was gone, a sword with black blade and handle was forged in the depths of hell, it was the original form of Gram. A demonic sword with its own soul and power.

When Regal put up his horses, Callen and Regal hit each other. Callen's sword and armour collided with each other, as the two bounced off the collision and fought back. The barrage of punches from Callen was easily held back by Regal who moved like he had six arms, until finally Callen issued something unexpected.

A sea-colored spear that reflected the moonlight and the night sky appeared in his hand, Callen jumped up and he did a stab at Regal, even though Regal held him back,but the puncture was like concentrating the power of the Callen earthquake on the blade, it made Regal's horses crumble and he had difficulty moving due to the earthquake wave earlier. Callen's spear shattered after that stab, he jumped into the air and made two more spears for him to throw into the arena, he said,Regal managed to retreat and avoid the first spear but the second spear fell right above where Regal stood and made Regal have to hold the spear with Gram.

When Regal focused on the spear, Callen landed with a spear in his right hand. He then lunged at Regal with the spear in front, Regal could do nothing, but that was what Callen thought. As soon as he almost stabbed Regal, Regal just disappeared from it, a confused Callen to the point of not realizing that his spear was currently flying towards him.

A powerful explosion occurred, the entire arena swaying due to the explosion of the spear that delivered the earthquake. The Regal that appeared on the other side of the arena saw the damage that the spear did, the spear completely destroyed the middle of the arena until its cracks hit every corner. Regal who realized the danger from the spear finally activated the power of Gram, making Gram swathed by a bright blue and black Aura that mixed into one.

Regal then saw the light within the smoke wall where Callen was hit by his own attack, the wall of smoke was split as soon as Callen threw three more spears, but Regal was able to brush it off with Gram. Then when Regal also added a lot of his soul to Gram, Callen then appeared while carrying a spear at high speed. Regal then swung his sword which had been filled with his soul energy, making a crescent slash that flew towards Callen.

Callen did not stop and he continued forward while cutting off the crescent moon slash. The slash was like it broke and passed through Callen but the slash returned intact and continued to run until it hit the magic protector that was installed to protect the audience. Callen with his earthquake power swung the spear from the bottom up and made Regal thrown in the air.

Seeing Regal flying so high into the air, Callen leapt with an extremely powerful force to the point of destroying the match arena. Their fight continues in the air with Regal at the top, while Callen is constantly pushing himself and Regal to fly higher. Until finally Regal did the slash of the crescent moon again. The slash hit Callen and cut him off but it pierced through him like a light hitting something. The wound he received was quite severe from the slash, leaving his armor and skin exposed to the slash wound. Callen with his power threw 9 spears at Regal in the air.

He manages to hold 3 but the remaining 6 hit and creates an explosion, as Callen looks over the curtain and thinks Regal is done,the smoke was split apart by the crescent moon slash that Regal carried, the slash was successfully repelled by Callen but there were 6 more slashes that were the same that hit him.

Callen fell and was hit by a crescent slash that injured Callen until his body was seriously injured. But he could not rest because Regal was preparing to do a slash, Callen finally made another spear with all his strength. Eventually, the two of their weapons collide.

No one could open their eyes because of the power of Aura that made such a terrible shockwave. The swords and spears they both barely touched each other, and the moment their sword blades and spears came into contact and clashed against each other,his shockwave made an explosion so fierce that its power managed to make the entire cloud around the arena disappear.

Regal finally stood on the rubble of the arena while putting up his horses, this was his last attack, if he failed then he would die. Likewise with Callen who makes spears with all his strength.

The two of them then lunged at each other, Regal with his blue sword and Callen with his spear which currently looked like it was carrying a storm made of air that was pulled by the whirlpool of Mana at the tip of that spear.

All of those slashes pierced through the armor as well as Callen's skin that was protected by vibrations that made everything that attacked him would be unstable. Yet all of those slashes were faster than the vibrations made by Callen. And with all that slash Callen finally fell, leaving Regal standing behind the unconscious Callen.

And with all that hard work the eventual winner of this tournament has been determined... Everyone cheered out at Regal who managed to make an attack on Callen.

Currently in the health room both of them were lying in the same room. There was only a distance of 3 meters from the mattress to the mattress, they both were conscious but still could not move at all.

"Honestly, you're the strongest man I've ever fought..." Callen said as he looked up at the ceiling. "Well me too..." Said Regal who was currently looking at the same ceiling.

"May I ask?" Regal asked Callen next to him. "What mean?"

Regal then turned to Callen. "Are you having fun?" Hearing that, Callen immediately laughed even though his body was all sick. But in the end he answered. "Well... I'm so happy..." And with that they both laughed together.

———

Three days later. Regal was currently kneeling in the great hall of Belterre Kingdom. The Queen picked up the sword and did the award by patting Regal on the shoulder with the flat side of her sword.

"I hereby declare Regal, as the official title holder of the King of Warriors." All the rulers and guests there applauded Regal's coronation. Then one of the ministries came with a badge, a key and 2 twin silver rings.

"On your achievement at the Bludblume match, I gave you Ambr. And at the request of Princess Callen Belterre, I give you permission to marry her..." Hearing that, everyone clapped their hands.

Praise floated to Regal even while the Queen was still in front of him, but Regal who heard the final gift of course looked at the Queen and said. "What did I get...?"
