Arcanum - Chapter 110

Chapter 110






"So who wants to go next? . . " Ashley asked us with a giant smile .

We all looked at each other for a few seconds waiting for someone to step up . "ME!!!" Daisy yelled excited .

"Come right up!" Ashley said with a giant smile .

"Ohh lemme put on my armour!" Daisy said running to small pile she left her Armour in . "I'll only be a minute!" Daisy yelled quickly putting on her armour and quickly rushing back into the arena fastening her gantlets .

"Lemme help… . . " Scarlet said walking into the arena behind Daisy checking her armour pieces fastening a few straps making sure she's ready .

"Thank you!" She thanked Scarlet .

"Good luck . " Scarlet said leaving the arena .

"WOOOOO GO DAISY!" We all yelled making Daisy feel more confident with a giant smile on her face as the Barbarian hologram walked in wielding a large 2 handed axe .

"YOU GOT THIS!!!" I yelled to Daisy, lifting her hand she showed us a thumbs up brimming with confidence .

"Ready? . . . . . " Ashley asked .

"Yeah!!!" Daisy roared lighting her maul onto her shoulder .

"Computer begin count down . " Ashley yelled, similar to Grace's duel a number appeared between them counting down to zero .

In an instant Daisy's tattoo's and eyes glowed golden yellow, also summoning her spectral sword and shield, keeping the shield in front of her and the sword charging towards the hologram .

The hologram went bright red and began charging at Daisy . The sword took the opportunity to slash the hologram in its unguarded back . Without fear it ignored the gash and shoulder check the shield head on surprising Daisy knocking the shield into her making her fall on her back .

"Man that was cheap . " Daisy huffed standing up . "Lets go!" She yelled running into the barbarian her maul igniting with a fiery red flame and a separate radiant white flame . Running into the hologram using her speed and momentum she slammed the hologram in the side physically distorting its body, the speed and force sending the hologram tumbling to the side sent ablaze with orange and white flame .

"She's strong . . . " Ashley yelled .

"Nice HIT!" Scarlet clapped .





"Woah . . . she's strong . . . " Jay mumbled .

"WOOOO!!" I yelled trying to encourage Daisy .

The hologram got up patting out the flames on its body and wielding its two hand axe ready to fight .

"You should have stayed down!" Daisy yelled sending her sword hurtling to the hologram assaulting it .

"She's really in her element when fighting . . . . " Grace commented .

"She really is a strong fighter . . . . . " Helen added .

Daisy made it look so easy completely dominating her opponent, Overwhelming her hologram by flanking it in two directions with herself and her sword . . . . and her shield stopping it from doing any real swing with its axe .

"Just stay down!!!" Daisy yelled sweeping the holograms leg with her maul causing it to trip . Quickly following it up with one giant head over head swing slamming it down on the hologram, also releasing a booming radiant white thunderbolt with the hit kicking up dirt and sand into the air .


"Ouch that's gotta hurt!!! . . . " Jay said watching the duel closely .

"She's pretty strong . " Scarlet commented to Ashley .

"Yup she's really grown since we last met her . " Ashley smiled .

Placing one foot on the chest of the hologram pinning it down, "Is it over yet? . . " Daisy asked looking towards Ashley and Scarlet .

"Not till the Hologram dissolves . " Ashley smiled as the hologram swept off Daisy's leg giving her a massive kick up her chin, forcing her to stagger back falling .

"Ouch . . . . " Scarlet hissed seeing Daisy take a direct hit .

"And she was doing so well . . . . " Ashley commented .

"That look like . . . . it hurt . . . " Jay said as Daisy staggering to her feet still dazed from the hit spitting out some blood on the floor .





"Okay . . . . I must admit that hurt a little . . . " She said looking angered .

The hologram got up as if unharmed by all of Daisy's earlier hits .

"It's still got some steam left, ready yourself!" Ashley smiled .

"GO DAISY!!!" I yelled getting more and more into it, watching all this was surprising exciting and addictive .

Ignoring Daisy's sword strike again, it began running towards daisy axe in hand barging past her shield . Swinging savagely at Daisy the weight and size of the axe barely slowing down its attacks . Daisy still dazed barely side stepped and ducked past its swings while slowly getting pushed back . Out of nowhere the hologram cracked her with a massive punch across the jaw, her head physically jerking to the side with the impact knocking her back to the floor again .

"Get up!!!" Scarlet yelled .

"She's in trouble . . . . her weapon is not very good at defending herself while prone . . . . " Grace said watching the fight closely .

"And she looked so promising… . " Ashley sighed

The hologram unrelenting and unmerciful raised its axe ready to strike down into Daisy, holding out her hand shaking in desperation, her finger curled like a claw desperately trying to defend herself from the holograms finishing blow .

"Nicely done!!!" Scarlet yelled clapping .

"Nice recovery . " Ashley added, for some reason the hologram is now frozen mid swing .

"What happened? . . . . . " I asked looking confused and shocked at Jay and Helen .

"It's a strong spell called, 'Restrain' she basically paralyzed the hologram . " Jay answered .

Daisy slowly got up dusting herself off, this must have been the spell Scarlet used on me when I first arrived that stopped me from moving . "So is this duel over now? . . " Daisy asked Scarlet and Ashley .

"Yeah should be now . . . . unless you want to finish it off . . . " Ashley replied smiling .

"Is it really over from just one spell? . . " I asked Jay .

"This particular spell is extremely dangerous specially when alone . . . its affect can only wear off when the user loses concentration or the target resists its effect . The thing here is . . . . the hologram didn't resist the effect so Daisy can basically execute the target with no way for the hologram to fight back or resist . . . " Jay answered .





" . . . . That sounds extremely cruel . . . . . " I replied .

"Yes . . . . being hit by this spell with no one to help you break it is basically a death sentence . . . " Grace explained .

"Yeah . . . . . It's a particular deadly spell . . . that's why you should never venture out alone! . . . . always be with a party or at least a pair . " Helen added .

"How would you train to resist this spell? . . . " I asked .

"Hmmmm not sure . . . " Jay replied .

"Miss Scarlet . . . Mr Ashley? . . . . . Is there a way you can be trained to resist spells like that? . . . " Helen shouted asking them .

"Please… . No need for the Mr or Miss . . . . . Helen . . . . The answer is kinda yes and kinda no . . . " Scarlet replied .

"What do you mean? . . . " Helen asked .

"You can train your body to resist certain spells like Restrain and Dominate . . . . but spells like fireball and energy bolt . . . you'll have to avoid it physically from hitting you . " Scarlet answered .

"How does one go about resisting the effect of spells? . . . " I asked .

"Just generally trying to resist it and allowing your body to generate a natural defence against it . " Scarlet answered .

"Ohhhh like your immune system? . . . " I replied happy I understood it .

"Immune system??? . . . " They all asked me looking confused .

"Yeah it's when your body incrementally becomes more and more resistant to ailments building a natural immunity or resistance to it . " I explained to them .

"Ohhh so that's how it works . . . . " Jay and Grace nodded .

"That's interesting . . . . . " Scarlet pondered .

"Wow you're so smart!!!" Helen said smiling at me .

"I'm not really . . . . growing up my peers thought I was very . . . . . Unintelligent . . . . . " I replied .

"Don't sell yourself short!!!! You're garnered enough talent to be enrolled by Atlantis and grasped spell casting in a week!!! You're amazing!!!! . " Helen smiled .

"She's alright . . . don't boost her ego too much" Jay joked chuckling .

"Yeah . . . . . Above average at best . " Grace smiled .

"Let's just call the duel off . . . . . I don't feel like finishing it off . " Daisy requested .

"Sure . . . " Ashley said clicking his fingers making the hologram dissipated into light particles fading into the air .

"So can anyone tell me what Daisy did wrong there? . . . . " Scarlet asked entering the ring .

"She was too over confident… so she got rocked a few time . " Grace answered scarlet holding her hand up .

"Correct! . . . . Daisy you was over confident thinking the fight was over before it even started . . . . " Scarlet explained .

"You also have to remember that Barbarians are tough they are very resilient… as well as do a lot more damage than you'd might expect as you can see when even and kick or a punch was enough to send you back stagger . " Ashley explained .

"Sorry… . . " Daisy apologised looking very embarrassed .

"No need to be sorry… . We all start somewhere . " Scarlet smiled .

"Yeah don't be so hard on yourself… . Learning take time and experience . " Ashley agreed .

"The use of Restrain was an excellent choice!" Scarlet complimented .

"Thanks!!!" Daisy replied running back to us brimming with joy .

"Yes and you did very well, excellent show of strength . " Ashley smiled .

"So who's next? . . " Scarlet asked .
