The Goddess Made A Mistake Again-Chapter 71 - Under Everyone’s Eyes

He’s the first villain and this is actually a boss fight.

"Haah!"

Gekko screamed as he launched himself forward, sword drawn, ready to lose.

Arthur sighed, "How many times do I have to defeat you for you to understand."

Arthur stayed where he was and when Gekko’s attack came he didn’t deflect nor fought back. He turned briefly to the right, enough for him to dodge it without much effort.

Gekko didn’t care about that and continued on attacking him and Arthur kept on dodging his blows. Every slash, chop, thrust given by Gekko was smoothly dodged by Arthur. His movement was so good that the people who watched the fight, were amazed by it. Even Samantha couldn’t help but think Arthur was good at fighting, much better than her.

Gekko seeing all of his attack being easily evaded, hated that fact and cursed out, "Stop dodging my attacks and fight me!."

"What are you talking about, dodging is a necessary movement in any swordfight." Arthur said as he jumped back a steps as Gekko’s sword sliced the place in front of him.

Gekko said as his words went with each strike, "Dodging… and defending… may be a necessary skill… but its only… for cowards… who can’t fight back."

Arthur hearing him, smiled, "Well if that’s true then," He turned full offensive and started attacking Gekko fiercely.

At first Gekko could defend or tried to attack back but after a moment, he couldn’t do anything else but defend against Arthur’s relentless attack that were too fast for him.

"So that would mean you’re a coward, right?" Arthur showed a smug smile as he slashed towards an opening.

"Ahh!"

Gekko felt the cut on his right arm. He warily glanced at Arthur’s sword which was so uncannily sharp that it went through his armor and scorned, ’Why is his sword so sharp? Why does someone like him have such a good sword… and I have this piece of junk.’

"What… cat got you tongue, gecko?"

"Hmm!" Gekko angrily tried to strike back at the guy but instead Arthur deflected his strike and kicked him below the knee, resulting in him falling on the sand.

Before he could get up, he felt something sharp by his neck.

"Do you yield?" Arthur said to him while nudging him with the sword.

"Fuck you!" Gekko in his anger again tried to strike back but with a head-butt and blow to his back with the sword, fell back where he was again.

"Yield!" Arthur demanded.

I looked at all of this from a standpoint and didn’t understand Gekko’s reasoning. He saw my fight against Arthur and still decided to have the fight… was it because of fate that made him do this or did my throw loosened something inside him?

’Most probably the throw.’ I nod and my eyes refocus back on Gekko’s kneeling figure. ’What is he thinking? Can’t he see he’s already defeated?’

My eyes look down at Gekko’s hand which was crushing the sand beneath him.

This wasn’t over for him yet. He’s going to fight back and lose again… and he would keep on doing that like a mummy until Arthur finally gives him a grave lesson.

Unless…

A glint flashes in my eyes as an idea comes to me.

I look down at my palm and focus on it as a small black hole appears. It was steady and looked as if it was just a small black orb.

But if anyone took a close look at it, they would see that the orb was constantly sucking in everything around it at an extremely fast rate. I made it so small that nobody would notice what I am going to do.

Gekko looked up at Arthur with such hatred he didn’t have for none. He wanted to crush the charming, smug bastard in front of him that stole his crush. He wanted to show Elisabeth that he could defeat her perfect prince.

But he was weak… even the fatty could easily take care of him. Remembering him, Gekko felt a wave of anger emanate upon him.

He touched his head as pain attacked him. He did not know what happened back then but he was sure Henry might have done something to him.

’Just let me sent my father a letter then let’s see what you will do!’

No matter what happens, Gekko would make sure to let that guy see real pain. But now… he needed to stand up and show this guy what he truly was.

"Yield… you want me to yield?"

"Yes"

"Do you know what that means?"

"Surrender… just surrender Gekko and it’ll be all over-"

"FUCK NO!" Gekko angrily spoke up, "Yield means I have to surrender my honor to you and I’m not going to do that. It means I have to lose everything I fought for and I won’t do that."

Arthur could see the strains of pressure and understood, "I get it but you can just stop and I’ll help you."

"Help me? You?" Gekko laughed, "What can a lowly born noble, whose father left his mother would know about?"

"Tough words from a guy who’s kneeling." Arthur angrily said, "At least my father cared enough to love me."

"FUCK YOU BASTARD!" Gekko said as he suddenly got up and attacked Arthur.

As always, Arthur should have been able to deflect his attack but not this time. Gekko’s attack suddenly felt great power as something unseen to the eye fused with it and his attack threw Arthur back.

Everyone was shocked by that, even Arthur who’s hands still had the numbing feeling from the attack. Gekko seeing that, laughed, as if he realized something.

"You see! I’m more powerful!" He was lost with the newfound power and pointed his sword at Arthur, "Now, I’m going to show you what it means to underestimate me."

"I’m going to kill you right in front of all of this people and show everyone that I’m the strongest!"

Arthur saw that Gekko had already lost his reason and this sudden power was the cause of it. He didn’t know what happened but he got ready to use his full strength.

"Time to die, Arthur!" Gekko said and ran at Arthur with his new-found strength, ready to kill.

Everybody stopped at this moment and looked at this scene with utmost concentration. Elisabeth was praying for Arthur’s safety while Samantha felt the sudden change and wondered what the outcome be.

Arthur too got ready to incapacitate him. Both went and got ready to hit each other at full strength and it was at that moment when another small black orb, unseen by anyone went past them and something terrible happened.

"Aghh!"

Everyone on the stadium saw Arthur’s sword cut right through Gekko. Severing him in half as he fell on the training ground.

Dead.
