A Demon's Journey

Chapter 289 - Christina Vs Tiana (2)



Because of the explosion, a dust cloud was raised that shrouded Tiana\'s body.

Azaroth\'s Spiritual Consciousness within the Mystical Spiritual Connection Ring had decided to intervene because it sensed a strong aura coming from a familiar being.

Moreover, Tiana\'s life was in danger. If he hadn\'t intervened, she would have been fatally injured by that Solar Finger attack. That was unacceptable at this stage.

She had to at least reach the semi-finals before losing to someone.

Thus, Azaroth interfered and released a quick beam of pure Ardor to nullify those highly dense Golden Flames.

Now, his Purple colored aura was surrounding Tiana\'s body as he empowered her with his Ardor.

Tiana felt a rush of pure power within her body. She felt that she was invincible with this Ardor in her body.

"Now listen to my instructions closely. The energy you currently possess is much stronger than your usual energy. Your task is to touch your opponent. I will handle the rest," Azaroth spoke with a commanding tone.

"…Yes, master. I just wanted to inform you something," Tiana spoke.

Azaroth was surprised and decided to humor her, "Sure."

Suddenly, Tiana felt her body moving backward. A fireball struck the spot she was standing on earlier.

"Be quick. We don\'t have the time to talk," Azaroth ordered.

"Master, my opponent is the young mistress of the Black Lake Sect. I have more or less turned her into my good friend. I think it would be best if we don\'t harm her too much," Tiana added quickly.

Azaroth whispered after a short while, "I see…"

He didn\'t question Tiana where she genuinely considered Christina as her friend or was merely using her.

In fact, he would prefer it more if she genuinely considered Christina as her good friend. If he was to fight against the Royal Families, he would need these sects\' assistance.

And only if they held a genuine bond with his retainers could they fight alongside him without any suspicions.

"Alright. Then make sure you don\'t move for 10 seconds after touching her," Azaroth instructed Tiana.

Tiana was extremely delighted to hear those words.

"As you command, master," Tiana spoke with a hint of excitement. Soon, she was on the move and was running towards Christina with a quick speed.

Christina conjured up flames out of thin air and shot them at Tiana.

Tiana dodged a few of them while many of those flame balls struck her body. However, fortunately for Tiana, she was protected by Azaroth\'s Ardor.

Azaroth\'s Ardor was naturally much stronger than Tiana\'s Ardor. It provided her with great protection.

Tiana raised her arm and used, "Icy Wind!"

Christina countered the Icy Wind with her Golden Annihilation. However, this time, the Golden Annihilation couldn\'t counter the Icy Wind attack perfectly.

In fact, Christina\'s eyes widened as she witnessed the Icy Wind overpowering her flames.

When Christina realized that her Golden Annihilation would soon lose against that Icy Wind, she released a burst of flames underneath her feet and shot towards Tiana.

She barely dodged the Icy Wind that was freezing everything in its way.

If that Icy Wind had struck her body, she would have definitely frozen, and the battle would have ended.

Because of Azaroth\'s Ardor, Tiana could follow Christina\'s movements. She immediately raised her arms and prepared herself to fight against Christina.

Christina threw a punch at Tiana with her fists glowing with Golden Flames.

Tiana countered that fist with an Icy Aura released from her palms and deflected it away from her body.

Christina then suddenly jumped and double kicked Tiana\'s body. It was to such an extent that Tiana staggered back by a couple of steps.

However, she heard Azaroth\'s voice at this moment, "Grab her now!"

Tiana\'s eyes snapped open as she was waiting for this instruction. She immediately twisted her hand and grabbed Christina\'s right leg.

"Now smash her against the ground," Azaroth ordered.

Tiana obeyed that order as she smashed Christina against the ground.

"Freeze her," Azaroth sent his next instruction, and Tiana flawlessly obeyed it.

Christina looked extremely shocked as her entire body was freezing slowly and glued to the ground.

"…Now, it\'s my turn," Azaroth spoke as his purple aura suddenly covered Christina\'s frozen body.

The entire audience was shocked by this turn of events.

They didn\'t understand what exactly was going on. Initially, their battle seemed to be equal. Then suddenly, Christina was overpowering Tiana.

And now, Tiana was overpowering Christina again.

Were they holding back earlier? And why exactly was Tiana freezing Christina like that?

Even the referee and the other warriors were puzzled whether they should allow this battle to continue or not.

Christina was a young mistress of the Black Lake Sect, after all. If something dangerous happened to her, they would be blamed for it as well.

After a quick talk with the Black Lake Sect\'s elder, they decided to continue this battle. It didn\'t seem as if Christina was planning to admit defeat any time soon.

This was known after they noticed that Golden Flame burning intensely within the Frozen Ice Body.

Meanwhile, Azaroth\'s Spiritual Energy had already invaded Christina\'s mental consciousness.

Within that mental consciousness, he witnessed a young girl with a similar appearance to Tiana\'s opponent.

However, this wasn\'t the being that grabbed his attention.

The creature next to her grabbed Azaroth\'s complete attention. It was a Golden Creature with a large body and wide wings.

Azaroth instinctively activated his Mystic Eyes of Perception.

"Three-Legged Golden Crow, huh? That explains those Golden Flames and the possession," Azaroth spoke while stepping towards the Golden Crow.

"W-What are you?" The Golden Crow spoke with a fearful gaze as Azaroth stepped towards it.

Meanwhile, Christina gazed at this unfamiliar person with a frown on her face, "Who are you?"

"Tiana\'s master," Azaroth replied to Christina while keeping his eyes on that Golden Crow.

Christina had an understanding look in her eyes as she heard those words. She remembered that Tiana mentioned her master was an Emperor Ranked Expert.

She was surprised to see that Azaroth looked so young and thought \'Is it because he is a 7 Star Expert?\'

"So, what is a Golden Crow like you doing here?" Azaroth asked while purple flames shone on his arm.

He looked ready to annihilate the Golden Crow if the Golden Crow gave him the wrong answer.

"...I am her contracted beast," The Golden Crow replied soon enough.

Azaroth suddenly paused as he listened to that statement. He then stared at Christina and noticed a faint line of connection between them.

He internally sighed and thought \'I can\'t destroy this Golden Crow then. This woman\'s soul will be affected as well.\'

The Purple Flames around his hand dispersed as he stared at Christina.

"Do not attempt to control her body again," Azaroth ordered the Golden Crow with a cold tone.

Christina then stared at the Golden Crow and actually saw her nod in acceptance.

She had spoken the same sentence millions of times, but this bird would never actually listen. However, Azaroth spoke a single time, and it was nodding its head like a little child.

"Please allow me to be your disciple," Christina immediately kneeled in front of Azaroth.

Azaroth blankly stared at her for a few seconds before replying, "…Let\'s meet up. Ask Tiana to bring you to me."

After that, Azaroth snapped his fingers, and Christina saw a white flash that blinded her.

She soon woke up in the arena.

Christina immediately gave up as she regained her consciousness. Once she gave up, Tiana released Christina from her ice.

"We have a lot to talk about," Christina spoke.

"Yeah."
