Chapter 255 Vanessa's vengeance (Vanessa Belmont - The Fire Fairy)

'System, is anyone coming yet?' Rio said, as he got tired of waiting for someone to pop up near Leon. Looking at the protagonist, he had already recovered around 60% of his mana already.

[A few]

[If you want to know who or how many, just buy some more features for me.]

'But you're too expensive.' Rio said and closed the shop panel that popped up.

[It's expensive cause it's useful.]

'Fine. Buy 10 low grade lottery coupons. Let's play some games until someone comes.'

[At Least buy a few high grade or top grade ones. You have so many points, why're you always acting like a cheapskate?] System complained from the bottom of its digital heart.

Seriously this host had so many points, yet he doesn't spend them at all. What a waste.

"If you want to sell something, increase the success ratio. 1% chance of getting anything good. Isn't that like throwing my money in a dump? Quantity over quality." Rio said to the system. "Come on, bring out the machine. I'm feeling lucky today. Maybe I can win that 0.1% chance this time."

Rio said and hearing his command, system sighed and closed all the blue screen panels and brought a big round machine, divided in 10 parts with different colors, with gift boxes covered with question marks.

'Come on, PNG gods, Jackpoteus and Slotara, give me something good, and I'll spare your lives when you come down.' Rio said in his mind. Remembering the famous gods of Arcadia, associated with the games of casinos, and pressed the green button.

-rolllll rolll rollll-

The machine started rolling, slowly picking up speed each second. And when all the circles came together and it became hard to see their difference, Rio pressed the red button, making the machine come to a halt instantly.

The big question mark floated up in front of him a few times, as a gift icon popped up from the machine and slid to his side.

"Open sesame," Rio said and touched the box. As it started unwrapping and then his reward came to his view.

[Better luck next time.]

"..."

[...]

"Fuck," Rio cursed as he slapped the system panel. "Let's try again. I don't believe all 10 of them are wasted." He said and at his command, 9 similar machines popped up and started rolling on his sign.

[Better luck next time ×4

[2 Low grade healing potion

[5 Low grade berserker pills

[100 gold coins

[10 Pink heart sticker

[1 Rusty dusty dagger

"..."

[In my defense, I already warned you it's gonna be trash.]

'Fuck' Rio cursed and stood up from his seat and threw the old dagger filled with rust and dust at Leon startling him.

Leon, who sensed something, opened his eyes. Seeing a dagger coming his way, he moved his hands to block it. But as soon as the dagger touched his hands, it actually broke and got dusted. Only leaving dust that polluted like a smoke near his face. Leaving a stinky rusty smell behind.

'Hate this dagger.' Rio said as he cursed the system again, after seeing this 'lucky lottery' reward showing its might.

???

On the other hand, Leon who just covered his nose and wiped his face, after waving the smelly smoke away, had question marks over his face. Not sure about what Rio wanted to do with that.

"Someone's coming."

Before he could make any sense of it, Rio's words sounded in his ears, and when he looked up, his figure had already disappeared in the air, and came down to the ground.

"So it is you." Vanessa muttered under her breath, as she saw Rio landing on the ground, and Zirrix hanging on a tree.

The moment she saw 3 of their teammates getting eliminated instantly, she had a hunch it was him. And after seeing that even the dot showing their last teammate's location didn't move from one place for a while, she was even more sure of her conjecture that Rio must have appeared there. After all, she knew her classmates strength through their last match and for them to be eliminated without any chance, only his name popped up in her brain. She also knew leaving one alive was just a trap for them, so they'd come here to 'assist' their teammate.

Yet she still came here without hesitation for two reasons - first, she wanted to know Rio's strength. Since that's what her father asked to know.

Blake family and Belmont family, both Duke ranked nobles obviously didn't get along very well. And the recent growth of Blake's had only meant more losses for her family. And since Rio is the heir to Blake family, knowing his hole cards and limits would only be more beneficial for them.

As for the second reason, it was because she wanted to face off against Rio herself. To see how she fares, and how much more she needs to improve, so she can kill him with her own hands.

'Don't worry Ken, I'll have your revenge soon.' Vanessa thought in her heart, as she clenched the spear in her hands and started running towards Rio.

No words, no greetings, not even acknowledgement or a nod to him or Zirrix - just direct attack.

With each step of Vanessa flames started to cover her spear and then her hands and feet too. With every step her speed increased and in the next instant, her figure was just a yellow blur in everyone's eyes. Leaving the charred ground with shallow smoke coming behind.

Flame Tether

Inferno Blast

Rain of Ember

Cinder Form

One by one, Vanessa directly used her ultimate skills from the beginning. Instantly a binding rope like flame appeared around Rio, to trap and capture him. As the ground below his feet incinerated the next instant. Creating a fiery blast and a black crater in that place.

Yet the onslaught of skills didn't stop. Next second, not giving any chance to Rio, she started raining down small fiery projectiles on him. As soon as the small embers of flames came into contact with the fire blast from before, it merged and created a new spell called 'Magma Magic'. Escalating the heat and temperature to an unprecedented height.

Yet that wasn't all, all these spells were just to keep Rio busy and give herself enough time to prepare for her final spell, Cinder form.

Vanessa's body was covered in scorching flames itself, and she looked like a living fire fairy at that moment. Who was ready to burn down everything that came in her path, and her road to revenge.

Cinder Form is an advanced magic spell, which demands a substantial amount of mana and focus from the caster, thus it cannot be maintained for long periods. Even using it at low level mastery and control is risky, as the chance of the user setting himself on fire and burning down are too high. Cause controlling these flames gets extremely hard over time.

But despite its limitations and obvious backlashes, Vanessa still used this self harming technique, because of the many boosts it gave her.

While in Cinder Form, the user gains increased speed and agility, utilizing the intense heat generated by the flames for swift movements. The user's attacks are infused with fire, dealing enhanced fire damage with each strike. The flaming aura provides some level of defense against physical attacks due to its scorching nature of negation.

"Die" Vanessa muttered under her breath, as she pushed her spear forward, ready to stab the heart of the black shadow still showing little movement in the sea of fire.

Yet what she got in response to her attacks, was a small chuckle and a scoffing sound. "Compared to your brother, the flames you have are just enough to light a cigarette for me." Rio's words sounded in the silent flames, and under Vanessa's eyes, she saw as he held her spear in his fingers and spoke again.

"Let me teach you something I told him a long time ago." Rio said and clasping the spear tightly in his hands. "If you're playing with fire, be ready to get burned."

As Rio's words finished, a small black fire appeared on his fingertips, soon spreading outward to the whole spear and then covering Vanessa whole in it.

[Damn you Hela. I'll kill you sooner or later.] Apollo cursed in his heart after seeing Rio using Hellfire again. While silently staring at Leon, who was looking at the scene unfolding in front of him with wide eyes just like him.

##

A/N - Kendrick Belmont, was Vanessa's brother. He was Rio's classmate two years ago. Yet he died in the dungeon incident.
