Wolf of the Blood Moon: A Blood Magic

Book 5: Chapter 89: Show of Power and a Quiz

Scarlet

I float right up next to the large screen, which is currently showing just me as the entire sky above me is covered by a literal ocean of blood, giving everything a red tint as the sunlight shines through the blood. And its not just the sky I cover in blood. I make a massive cage around the entire stadium just from blood. Not materialized blood, but real blood.

Within the massive amounts of blood everywhere, I proceed to create creatures out of the blood. Creatures that begin swimming through it, occasionally peeking their glowing crimson eyes out of it to look at the crowd down below.

Then I make a large throne made out of pure blood metal and sit on it with a smirk on my face before directly taking control of the blood of every last person in the stadium that I can take control of. Which is most of them. All but Gramps basically. And Nyx.

I am the Ruler of Blood, the Warden, and I am back, I announce, still grinning.

I hold everyone still for a few seconds before erasing everything I just manifested in an instant and letting go of everyone, making a wave of gasps echo throughout the stadium.

Then the gasps are replaced with roaring cheers as I float downwards towards the tower thats located at the very center of all of the towers. The one meant for the current top ranked competitor.

Nyx stays silent for longer than I was expecting, simply giving the others who were watching over me time to arrive. And once they do arrive, she finally says, Now that the showoff and her family are back, let us begin with showing the rules for the fifteenth competition of the Fae Ascension Tournament.

As if nothing had just happened, she snaps her claws, and the rules appear high above the stadium for all to see.

System Quiz

Description: All of the competitors and their fae will be placed in a booth inside of a large hall, where the tournament host will be asking ten questions about the System.

Rules: Anything goes. Anti-death clause is allowed. Either the fae or competitor may answer. However, each one may only answer once per question, giving each team of competitors two chances to answer every question.

Goal: Answer the most questions correctly and first.

Rewards: All competitors will be awarded with ten points for each question they answer correctly. Meanwhile the top three teams will be rewarded with one hundred points, seventy-five points, and fifty points apiece. These rewards are cumulative.

Stolen novel; please report.

I stare blankly at the mention of a quiz as Tar lands on my shoulder, apparently having discovered that my new clothes are made out of metallicized Red Plague rather than normal Red Plague. Albeit softened metallicized Red Plague so that it doesnt feel like Im just encased in metal. Which is safe for him to touch without me having to move it from him.

This round of the tournament will be a quiz, Nyx says, making me more than a little irritated. But I guess I shouldve expected this. Considering that its not a combat competition.

None of the remaining competitions are combat focused ones.

Which makes my new powerups a little awkward since I wont be able to use them.

I think this round is rather self-explanatory, so lets just begin, she says, startling me with her abruptness before I find myself appearing in some sort of two-part booth with a buzzer in it.

Thats just how my aunt is, Tar says. Shes been doing that for every round now. Probably because she doesnt want to be doing this.

Very different from her brother.

And for some reason, the fact that I actually like that about her gets on my nerves even more.

Why do you dislike her so much? Tar asks, sounding rather curious.

Im honestly not sure. Its just that something about her feels off. Like its fake. Like shes fake in general.

I didnt feel this way until after I woke up from that short coma, so maybe its just me not feeling at my best right now or something?

Something just feels wrong about her.

Hmm, Tar hums for a second before saying, well, lets just focus on the tournament for now.

Right. Good plan.

Unlike most of the competitions of the combat side of things, this one lets us hear the audience. Even though we cant see them.

Although when Nyx begins to talk, the volume of the audience decreases as if someone was pressing a button on a remote, Everyone will have five minutes after I ask each question to answer. No one will be able to hear each others answers other than the audience. And the audience will be muted until after you answer during each round. If you dont answer during the round, you dont get your points. Simple as that. Now lets start.

I blink at that before frowning.

Then Nyx glances around at each of us, the sounds of the audience slowly going away until its dead silent in the hall. And with a monotone voice, she asks, Why did the Fractures initially appear?

Wait huh?

Is that even a System question? One of the other booths lights up, making me glance over. But I cant tell what theyre saying as their face becomes blurred when I look, and not a single word theyre saying comes to me.

It sounds like theyre wrong though considering the red light that shines from their booth before it goes dark again.

Is Nyx also muted during this time?

Well, whatever.

Why did the Fractures initially appear was it the hypothesis both the humans and demons came up with?

Another light flashes from a different booth this time, only to go red again soon after before going dark. Meaning another team got it wrong.

If it were as simple as a public hypothesis that pretty much everyone here should know, then theyd have gotten it right by now.

And this is a quiz over the System.

Then does that mean the System was involved in the Fractures somehow despite the evidence pointing otherwise?

I dont know Tar mutters.

If its true, that would be hmm.

Is this quiz really just to quiz us?
