Season 17, Week 5
Jade
(Breath of Fire)
 
The giant demon bug proved last week that there's more to him than BoltX. Now one final test awaits Myria's finest servant in his bid to become Godlike champion. Piastol is known for hitting hard and fast with her Tempest Dance, but she plays right into Jade's strengths: the lightning demon boasts mighty physical defence to back his astounding HP. With his own trademark BoltX back in action to rip right through his opponent's less-impressive durability, Jade is poised to finally stop Piastol's run and extinguish any possibility of a double-championship.

Piastol's managed to struggle her way up to the top of another season, and she's not planning on losing to a giant disfigured tick after having come this far. Her opponent's massive damage and durability will surely pose problems, but Piastol has one major advantage: Speed. With her incredibly fast Tempest Dances ripping Jade before he can so much as chant his signature spell, he'll be in major trouble. And with this victory, Piastol will secure her place as the ultimate bounty hunter and one of the strongest Godlikes ever.

"Hmmmm. So I'm back here again." Piastol said, looking out at the massive crowds. "Who would have thought? Well, it's money."

"You sound like you think you'll win." Jade said, chuckling. "You're just a ant in my path, girl, and I will smash you to a pulp."

Gathering his powers together, Jade transformed into a massive, insect-like abomination.

"Hah. We'll see." Piastol said, slashing Jade with a series of blows.

Any normal person caught in Piastol's Tempest Dance would have been felled...but Jade still persevered, even to the point of laughing at Piastol.

"You know what's a pity? That chunk of metal you use for a weapon makes a good lightning rod!" Jade yelled, smashing Piastol into the dirt with a massive blast of lightning.

For a moment, it looked as though Piastol was beaten...but slowly, she rose up, gritting her teeth.

"Can't...stop me that easily." She said, slashing at him again....but not doing enough. Jade simply concentrated on his second spell, knowing that it would put her down.

"Though...you do have a point." Piastol said, leaping high into the air.

And embedding her scythe deep within Jade, just as he finished his spell.

As Jade's massive, floating body fell to the ground, the only thing to be heard in the silent, stunned arena was Piastol's words.

"It really does make a good lightning rod." The second back-to-back champion of the Role-Playing Game Duelling League said, smiling, as she walked, slowly, out of the arena.

Jade: 21
Piastol: 26
