Third Person PoV

Ereshkigal and Morgan were standing at opposite ends of the arena. Ereshkigal looked motivated and a little bit nervous.

While Morgan was confident and not nervous at all. This was due to their experiences in life.

As Mesopotamian gods Ereshkigal alongwith Ishtar didn't fight much, relying on their overwhelming powers to win.

When they met someone of equal strength or stronger than them, they simply asked someone stronger to fight them or used something like Gugulanna.

But one thing Ereshkigal had was the absolute ability to rule in the underworld.

On the other hand, Morgan was used to making her way to the top. Scheming, plotting, fighting, she was well versed in all of them.

Even if Ereshkigal was the stronger one between the two, she wouldn't necessarily be able to win this fight.

"Begin!" Cain's voice began the match.

Just then both the fighters started doing their preparations. Both liked to be prepared for their fights, Morgan even more so.

Ereshkigal immediately tried to use her authority in soulscape to instantly win the fight, but she was unable to.

"That is not usable, I have sealed all authority abilities here, that will even the playing field as to speak."

Ereshkigal was caught off guard by this and her main plan failed before it even began.

Morgan's main plan was to use her authority of the world tree garden to win but unlike Ereshkigal this was not the only plan she had, as always she had multiple plans.

She calmly raised her staff and summoned multiple fairies and launched them towards Ereshkigal.

Ereshkigal by now had calmed down and fought back, she summoned blue flames and launched javelins of fire at the fairies.

The fairies easily dodged the javelins and used their powers; multiple balls of fire, water, lightning, earth and wind were launched at Ereshkigal.

Ereshkigal created a wall of mud to block the attacks, but also blocked her vision. The wall fell after tanking all the attacks.

But by then fairies had charged up more attacks. But Ereshkigal didn't resort to defence and created a spear and trusted it multiple times.

And each time the spear pierced the fairies they vanished. But then an explosion of magic happened behind Morgan.

A tree fastly grew behind her, but the aura it excluded made everyone present shocked, it was the world tree.

Ereshkigal looked at Cain and said.

"Hey, isn't that cheating?"

"No, it simply connects to the tree to use some of its power, it doesn't use the authority of Morgan, it's like borrowed power. My advice is to surrender. Even though it borrowed power, it's not something you can handle."

Cain calmly advised While internally marvelling At the strategy Morgan used. He had thought she would do this, but he ignored as this would be too obvious.

'But sometimes the obvious is the hardest to predict?'

"Let me try one attack, if that doesn't work then I will forfeit."

Ereshkigal was initially determined to win at least the third position so she could get that ticket from Cain, but it seems hee chances of even advancing are tough.

"A prison in the heavens.

Blue sky on the Earth.

Submerge into the abyss, my heart!

Nammu Abzu Gugalanna!"

'Gugalanna? Isn't that a bull?' Cain wondered.

The spear in Ereshkigal's hand was thrust forward and a tremendous amount of heat was generated.

Cain quickly closed the place around the arena, the heat generated was high enough to damage Hell.

'Was this a bad idea, well too late to back away I guess, and the actual strong ones are not yet fighting.' Cain was thinking.

Morgan was surprised by the attack but made the world tree replica tank it, she fully opened the connection as wide as she could.

But she didn't place all her hopes on this, she also cast a curse to stealthily degrade Ereshkigal.

Due to the big attack, the curse latched on to its prey easily. But then the light finally went out and the arena was visible once more.

And then there was no arena, only the stands. Ereshkigal was panting, Morgan was panting and the tree was not there.

"Can I win now?" Ereshkigal said with a tired voice.

"No." Morgan said, her voice a bit more steady than the goddess.

"My curse has already Latched on to you, all I need to do is make this battle drag on, you are already tired due to the attack."

Morgan coldly explained the situation to the blond goddess. Ereshkigal's eye went down at that and she said.

"I forfeit!"

"The winner is Morgan LeFay." Cain announced without any delay.

Nobody spoke anything on this battle as this was simply Morgan outsmarting Ereshkigal, although that attack was fearsome, but it could be dodged and it's range, leaving the heat behind is rather small.

…

Round 2: Match 2: Night v/s Darkness

The most awaited match began, most of the matches had their results already known by the members.

But this was interesting. Aside from Cain no one knew that Nyx was trying really hard to regain her strength.

She wasn't easy to spot, concealment authority and whatnot. Even those who knew that she was training didn't knew how strong she was compared to her past.

While Grayfia was strong, it was known by everyone. She was strong enough to fight serafall and win, even Scathach said she was a tough opponent to face.

The two met face to face. Grayfia looked as stoic as she looked any other day, while Nyx had a nostalgic smile on her face.

"We faced each other like this didn't we?"

"For different reasons but yes." The maid replied earnestly.

"Begin!"

Cain said he knew that he may or may not have to spend some time with his maid after this match.

Cain's words were the beginning, and all light in the arena vanished.

Grayfia used Darkness while Nyx was the goddess of night. It was to be expected that they would fight in such a way.

…

"What with this? Last take too much light and now too much darkness?"

Rayla complained. But her sentiment was true with all. Grayfia's Darkness was seen through by some good eyes, but Nyx it was impossible for most to find what she did in the night.

Cain could see if he used his authority of Hell, but he didn't.

'I need to be neutral here. I trust that Nyx won't be too hard on her, Grayfia is no slouch either.'

Cain hardened his heart. But still his senses were fixed inside the darkness, a little change in the aura and he would rush inside like lightning, no he would be faster.

The darkness gradually froze with ice, and it stayed that way for a while but gradually it was submerged in the darkness.

And after that in a few moments. Nyx and Grayfia came out of the darkness and there was light again.

But the onlookers were surprised. Nyx looked unharmed while Grayfia's situation looked dangerous.

She was believing all over, her maid uniform was in tatters. Her hair was almost red, and she was barely able to stand.

Nobody knew what happened between the two inside that darkness, but it was obvious who won this match.

Many were disappointed that they didn't get to see one of the most exciting matches, but they didn't say anything as it would be rude to ask, seeing how Grayfia was.

Maybe they would ask the participants at a later date, when Cain wasn't around.

Cain gentry landed near Grayfia and saw her eyes, they were moist. He didn't say anything and hid her face from the others.

He lifted her brutal style and teleported back to his room. He cast basic healing magic on her and asked the other maids to help her.

"My Lord I-"

"Shhhh! Don't talk. You did well, I am not disappointed." Cain said to her in a shooting tone of voice.

He stroked her silver hair which was now clean of all, now tags he had cast cleaning spells on her.

"I will be back, sleep and recover till then."

Cain said and stayed for a while, as she fell asleep he left. Appearing where he left he announced.

"Nyx wins!"

Nyx looked worried and asked.

"Is she fine?"

"Yes."

The match ended in a sombre tone, but everyone gradually recovered but one thing stayed in their minds.

'This isn't just a normal tournament, this is much more!'

…

Round3: Match1: Succubus v/s Godslayer

A match that Lilith wanted and a match that Scathach dreaded to have. The last time Scathach dreaded something tasty she had forgotten.

The purple haired beauty still remembered that day she had a talk with Lilith, she still blushed at the things she said to her.

And that was not the only problem, it was the way Lilith said with absolute confidence about her likes and dislikes tags she was scared.

And Scathach was scared because Lilith was right, and now she was worried she might have to face it once again.

But she is a warrior first and foremost, a queen second and a woman third. She will fight even if it means she will lose her dignity.

The Godslayer raised her eyes to meet with the twinkling mschievous eyes of Lilith. Scathach could almost hear what she thought.

'Oh, your pitiful, masochistic lamb, I will make sure you enjoy this fight!'

And that was exactly what Lilith was thinking. Lilith had no doubt that she would lose, but she would lose after making Scathach all hit and bothered.

Afterall who can be a better wing woman for a son, than his mother, who was by chance also the progenitor of the species who even made Olypian gods shiver at their debauchery?

Lilith was very tame compared to some other succubuses. The white haired seductive wench liked her fingers coating them in her saliva and made a peace sign, showing it to Scathach and making her dread what is to come.

"Begin!" Cain said, for the 4th time today.

'But this is interesting, I am seeing Scathach nervous and mother happy, that is one Hell of a devious smile on mom's face though!'

And no sooner than Scathach ran towards the succubus her entire world changed.

An illusion created by the progenitor of the species who mastered the art of illusions was not easily escapable or breakable.

Instead of the arena she was on the bed, instead of a spear in her hands was a pillow, heart shaped.

And instead of Lilith, Cain was lying on the bed, shirtless, his eyes looking at her body in lust.

And finally Scathach noticed her clothes, or noticed the lack of them. She was wearing only her lingerie.(Image in the comments.)

A purple set, with embroidery on them. Being a warrior she wasn't that thrown off by being naked but being in front of Cain sure made her, what do they say it, self-conscious.

"Beautiful, my dear bitch!"

Cain said, a weird kind of strength in his voice. Normally Scathach would rip anyone who talked to her like this, but instead what should happen.

She only felt her core heat up….

Yes Scathach was a huge submissive masochistic woman, her dominant nature was only in a fight.

Cain moved towards her, eyeing her like a prey to be devoured, even a mere gaze like this by him made Scathach feel a tingle in her pussy.

"Cain, stay back!" But her word didn't have her usual streness in them, ans Cain didn't stop.

…

In the arena, outside the illusion. The onlookers waiting for a good battle only saw Lilith yawning and occasionally show a depraved smile on her face.

Scathach was standing at her staring point and her body occasionally twitched as of being stimulated by something.

"Oye, Zeaira. Aren't fights with Scathach supposed to be fast and brutal, why am I seeing her stand and twitch like that, is she having a wet dream now?"

Rayla said she was very disappointed by the lack of high intensity in the battles. Others also wanted to complain but They didn't speak to Zeaira or Cain that way.

"Your guess may not be wrong, Rayla. Mother may have pulled Scathach into a rather intimate illusion, who knows."

Zeaira said with a knowing smile.

"So would Scathach-san lose?" Ingvild questioned.

"Nah, she'd win." Zeaira said with her eyes focused on the said woman.
