Chapter 45 - Challenger
Crowd(with astonished faces)- Denma is dead........
Raiden- What turn of events!! Who would have expected that..!!
Chrollo(while bowing down to the crowd)- I am extremely sorry for the troubles denma has caused to all of you. But there is nothing to worry about anymore because he is being taken care off.
Crowd(with astonished faces)- He is apologizing..... to us?? Why is he doing that......??
Ayumi(while looking at chrollo)- That man...!! What is he even trying to accomplish??
Unknown Person from Crowd 1- Hmph!! Does he think apologizing to us would make a difference?? They are still terrorist and they will always remain that!!
Unknown Person from Crowd 2- They could have crashed between the World Tournament causing it to end but they didn't did that instead they waited for everything to end and then they appeared.
Unknown Person from Crowd 1- Yeah, yeah, I know that!! But the interesting thing now is that what will the elite soldiers do?? Do they have the guts to attack the dushyanta when there leader is also present??
Chrollo(to dushyanta)- We shall leave now.
Phelix- Guess the party is offically over now.
X(to phelix)- But it was fun while it lasted.
Orion(while looking at chrollo with a smirk smile)- .......
Narrator- The Dushyanta then starts moving towards the portal for exit.
Crowd(with confused faces)- They are leaving...?? What are the elite soliders even doing?? This is there last chance to attack them!! Who knows if we will ever have a next chance like this or not!!
Ayan(to all the chief in commanders)- None of you chief in commanders will move!!
Riyuki(while looking at hiyuki with a worried face)- My son........
Narrator- Hiyuki before leaving looks at his mother Riyuki and then he passes on a goodbye smile to her.
Chronos(while looking at livon)- Hahahahahaha!!
Vanilla(while pushing chronos towards the portal)- Move, move, move!! This is not the time to laugh!! We have to move!!
Chronos(to vanilla)- Good grief. Okay madam, I understand.
Livon(with a scared face)- I want to attack him..... but why aren't my legs moving....?? Its like they are stuck to the ground. I am sweating...... Is this fear, I am experiencing...?? What is this....... have I gotten this weak now??
Narrator- Meanwhile Chrollo just before exiting, looks behind to the crowd and shows them a smile.
That smile indicated that no one from the Elite Soliders was above him. He smiled because he wanted a challenger, he wanted someone to step up and fight him but alas, no one had the guts to do that.
Nova(with a scared face)- Baker!! This is your chance, go and fight him. Didn't you said earlier that you would do anything to take down the dushyanta, then is the best chance to do that.
Baker(to nova)- Well, that was the plan earlier but.... just imagining him fighting is actually making me nervous.
Nova(to baker)- Unfortunately, I feel the same buddy.
Ayumi(with a tense face)- Up close sensing his shakti, I now know why people consider him a legend!! His shakti...... it is enormous....!!
Crowd(with tense faces)- This is ridiculous!! Does no one have the courage to step up?? All the elite soldiers are just talk and nothing else!! They can't do anything when it really matters!! How disappointing!!
Narrator- Chrollo was just one step away from exiting when suddenly a bright, flashing lightning lighted up the sky and then a man arrived holding a sword.
Tegan(to chrollo)- Where do you think you are going?? (with a smile) LIGHTNING SWORD!!
Chrollo(while blocking the sword with his both arms)- .......
Crowd(with joyful faces)- Tegan!! Tegan!! Its tegan!!
Eldon(while looking at tegan)- I knew that man wouldn't be able to resist this opportunity!!
Phelix- Aah I see, there is something left in this party after all!!
X- So there is someone among these shallow minded people who has the guts to do what is right. That's brilliant!! Absolutely brilliant!! I love it!!
Noren(with shocked face)- Sir tegan....... is he really gonna fight the leader of the dushyanta on his own...!! That's insane!! I know sir is strong but taking a chance against that man is crazy!!
Itsumi(to noren)- This is next level of craziness!! But I bet he must be so happy right now.
Miyuki(with an angry face)- That idiot.....!! He just couldn't control himself!!
Suzune(to miyuki)- Well, what did you really expected from him?? He is always like this.
Tegan(while trying to push the sword towards chrollo)- I am about to live my dream, you know. The dream of defeating you!!
Chrollo(while blocking the sword with his arms)- Dream, you say??
All the Girls from Crowd- Tegan!! Tegan!! Tegan!! Tegan!! Tegan, we are supporting you!! Do your best!! We love you tegan!! We love you!!
Chrollo(to tegan)- Dreams, a thing we humans created in order to escape the reality of life. A concept that has the power to bring both happiness and sadness. Are you chasing that or are you actually chasing greed??
Tegan(in his mind)- Damn... he is blocking my sword with his mere arms, he isn't even using his swords!! And to make matters worst, he hasn't coated his arms with his shakti element 'Darkness' either!!
Do you really think there is a difference between dreams and greed in a broaden sense?? Because I don't think so, as greed originates from dreams!! (to chrollo)
Chrollo(while looking behind at dushyanta)- You guys go ahead. I will be over here for a while. Orion, you just leave the portal open for me.
Orion(to chrollo)- As you wish.
Chrollo(to tegan)- You and I share the same assumption since I also consider greed nothing but an extended version of dreams.
Narrator- Tegan ruthlessly starts swinging his sword at Chrollo's arms, hoping to break his defense and find an opening for next attack.
After 2 consecutive swings, Chrollo was then forced to coat to his arms with his shakti element 'Darnkness' in order to avoid any more damage.
Tegan(in his mind)- What is this feeling.......?? Am I getting sucked into his darkness!! Is this his power??(while looking at darkness coating) I have to start maintaining a distance from him now on. LIGHTNING BOLTS!!
Narrator- Tegan creates numerous bolts of lightning around Chrollo and then drops those on him.
While Chrollo was busy dodging them, Tegan in the meantime ran backwards. The distance between them was now 6 meters.
Tegan(to chrollo)- Now, I have got a question for you. Tell me, why do you live?? What is the motive of your life?? LIGHTNING SHOWER!!
Narrator- Tegan first stays still for a moment and then swings his lightning sword towards the sky in an circular manner.
This generated radiations of lightning which traveled to the clouds, thus summoning a 'Lightning Shower'.
Raiden(with a confused face)- Well, I don't think the roof will be enough to save us this time, especially from an attack of this magnitude!!
Crowd(while shouting loudly)- Its time to run everyone!! If you value your life, then run!!
Narrator- To everyone's surprise, the 'Lightning Shower' attack was directed at Chrollo only and leaving everyone else unharmed.
Chrollo(to tegan)- 5 CRUST OF DARKNESS!!
Narrator- Tegan's 'Lightning Shower' attack was blocked by Chrollo's '5 Crust of Darkness'. Those 5 crust were created by Chrollo above his head, out of which 4 of them got destroyed at the end.
Unknown Person from Crowd 1- That's chrollo's first attack!!
Unknown Person from Crowd 2- We are finally seeing him in action!! Its surreal!! He is the only man in the history to ever unlock all the 5 stages of Shakti!!
Unknown Person from Crowd 1- I wonder if we will get to see the mysterious Stage 5- Mantric!!
Chrollo(to tegan)- Impressive work!! Usually shakti users aren't able to handle large range attacks like these properly, which ends up causing more harm to others rather than your own opponent. But you managed it pretty well and executed the attack with perfection.
Tegan(with a smile)- THE HOLY SWORD OF LIGHTNING!!
Narrator- Tegan without wasting any time gets ready for his next attack. He points his sword towards the sky, then starts harnessing all the lightning which he summoned earlier. This lead to the creation of a giant sword of lightning which was went as large as the sky.
Tegan then swings that sword towards Chrollo with full force. It destroyed the last remaining crust and then Chrollo used his bare hands which he coated with 'Darkness' in order to stop the sword. Even after using all of his strength, 'The Holy Sword of Lightning' was too much too handle. At the end, it cuts right through his right hand, giving him a major wound.
Chrollo(while looking at the wound)- Its been a while since I last bled.
Noriko(while looking at tegan)- Tegan is surpassing my expectations!! No wonder why people all over the world call him one of the most exciting prospects ever!!
Raiden(with a joyful)- I expected nothing less from the Winner of 4th World Tournament!! Sir tegan is awesome!!
Carson(while looking at tegan)- What he is doing is truly something else!! The kinds of shakti he has displayed is extra ordinary!!
Ayumi(with an astonished face)- He is not just fighting the leader of dushyanta but he also maintaining his own ground against him!!
Chrollo(to tegan)- The answer to your question is, I live to find out the truths about this world and the motive of my life is to find out why does those truth exist!! (takes out his double swords) BLACK BLADES!! Its time to get serious.
Tegan(in his mind)- So he has finally taken out his swords. (with a smile)
Narrator- Chrollo after taking out both of his swords, coats them with his shakti element 'Darkness' and then runs towards Tegan to attack him.
Livon(while looking at the battle)- It is incredible.........
Chrollo(while running)- DARK MATTER DESTRUCTION!!
Narrator- Chrollo gently struck his swords together, thus creating a dark matter which then emitted rays of darkness towards Tegan.
Tegan on the other hand, tries to block those rays with with the help of his 'Lightning Sword'. While he was busy blocking the rays, Chrollo appeared at his right side.
Tegan(to chrollo)- I was waiting for you. LIGHTNING DISCHARGE!!
Narrator- Tegan's earlier 'Lightning Shower' attack helped him produce another attack too. When he summoned the lightning shower, he specifically targeted two other position than Chrollo's. Those two positions were top and bottom of the ground. And then the moment Chrollo arrived at the spot where Tegan wanted him to be, he discharged lightning towards him.
Crowd(with stunned faces)- This is amazing!! Tegan may finally get rid of Chrollo for good!!
Chrollo(to tegan)- DARK ENERGY!!
Tegan(with a surprised face)- .......
Narrator- Before lightning could strike, Chrollo emitted dark energy from his body which destroyed the upcoming lightning discharge points completely.
Chrollo(while keeping his swords back)- Now experience darkness. DARKNESS SUCKING!!
Tegan(with a surprised face)- .......
Narrator- Chrollo gently places his right hand at Tegan's face and then he slowly starts sucking him into his darkness.
Tegan(while getting sucked in)- My body..... my mind...... it is..... getting filled with all......... darkness......
Crowd(with shocked faces)- Tegan is getting absorbed...?? This must be the power of chrollo's darkness!!
Tegan(while getting sucked in)- Why do I need to complete my dream....?? Its all useless anyway..... Why must I fight for these garbage people?? Getting sucked inside this darkness, is..... far... better choice..................... What.... what am I saying....?? This must be darkness.....!! My mind is getting out of control.... I need to figure something out quickly before I am completely sucked in!!
Narrator- Just before Tegan could completely get sucked in, he grabs his sword and swings it in desperation towards Chrollo.
Chrollo loses his balance in all of this and then the process of sucking got disrupted. Tegan took this opportunity to run backwards in order to maintain a distance from Chrollo.
Crowd(with relieved faces)- Aaah..... tegan is safe.....!!
Chrollo(to tegan)- This shall be enough for today.
Tegan(with a tired face)- What....??
Chrollo(to tegan)- You have potential, don't waste it.
Narrator- Chrollo then walks towards the portal and then leaves the World Stadium.
Crowd(while shouting loudly)- DUSHYANTA ARE GONE!! YEAH!! YEAH!! THEY ARE FINALLY GONE!! YEAH!! ITS FINALLY OVER!!
Ayumi(with confused face)- Its... over.....??
Narrator- Ayan then nods his head to signal something to Volker.
Volker(referee)- With that, this is the end of the 5th World Tournament!! You all can leave now. Thank you for coming!!
Tegan(while lying down on ground to releax)- Maybe some other time....
Chikara(while stretching his arms)- Aahh.... aaaah.... a good day at the office!! Now, I am gonna go back to the Crystal Country and then have a nice sleep.
Aiden(to chikara)- Hmph.....!! Why don't you go and start working efficiently from now on!! If only you took things seriously earlier then none of this dushyanta's junk would have happened!!
Chikara(to aiden)- Wahahahahaaha!! Aiden, you should thank me because if I would have taken things seriously earlier then none of denma's junk could have been cleaned up so easily!!
Aiden(to chikara)- So you still refuses to acknowledge your mistake!! Just what kind of man are you?? I am really really getting so sick of you, I just want to...... LAVA FLAMES FIST!!
Skyler(while eating an apple)- Come on, take it easy aiden. We can't deny that this time chikara's inefficiency proved useful for once.
Aiden(to skyler)- I don't need a lecture on 'Taking it easy' from someone who eats an apple 24/7 because he always too stressed out!!
Chikara(to aiden and skyler)- Wahahahahahaha!! Wahahahahahaha!!
Ayan(to hanna)- Hanna, if you ever need something, then do tell me. I will always be there, never resist.
Hanna(with a gloomy face)- Yeah.... sure, thank you ayan.
Noriko(to raiden)- Well, I am glad that I am not going to see someone's face for a while now!!
Raiden(to noriko)- Me too!! There is one annoying person who always irritates me, I am super glad that I have finally getting a break from her!!
Noriko(to raiden)- Who are you calling annoying?? You specialist barking human being!!
Raiden(to noriko)- You are the one who barks not me!! You annoying person!!
Kiyomi(while shouting to noriko)- Lets go noriko!! Its time for shopping!! Nova and baker are already ready and excited to go!! Hurry up now!!
Noriko(to kiyomi)- Yeah, I am coming!!
Baker(with a dull face)- Excited.....?? Aah, I understand, she must be talking about you nova.
Nova(with a dull face)- Its not the time for jokes baker. I know you are secretly very excited for shopping, so I will let you hold all of my share of bags too.
Raiden(to ayumi)- Ayumi..... !! Where are you going??
Ayumi(while walking towards exit)- I am going to the medical centre to have a look at hinaka's condition. You wanna come??

Miyuki(to suzune)- Aah, nice idea. We should also consider taking tegan along too.
Narrator- Livon then arrives at the location of two unknown girls, who he insulted earlier during his match against Hiyuki.
Livon(while handing over flowers to the girls)- I am.... extremely sorry for my behavior earlier!!
2 Unknown Girls(with a scared face)- Huh......?? He is scary....!!
Livon(while trying to hand over the flowers to girls)- I have realized that what I did earlier was wrong. I wasn't even able to appreciate my own fans, who supported me. I wasn't thinking properly, so please accept my apology!! And give me a chance to do things better from now on!!
2 Unknown Girls(with a happy face)- If you are willing to change, then we are happy to accept to your apology!!
