Reincarnated Into A Human?

Up In the stand Ray had missed the current fight of the contestant that was taking part, he was too busy focusing on what was going on around him, but he knew the person in the arena currently was quite strong. He had defeated the advanced tier beats coming out with minimal damage, and now he was moving on to the king tier beasts next.

The stage was quickly being cleared as they removed the beast's body at the same time the crystal was harvested and carried off in a different direction. The prizes for the event were the crystal itself, as well as fame. As for all earnings and losses from the betting, it would only affect the actual arena and had nothing to do with the contestant.

This was good for Ray as he only wanted the beast crystal in the first place. Carefully waiting, Ray wondered what type of king tier beats would come out. Not all tiered best had the same strength and it would vary. On top of this, there would also be only so many times Ray could obtain a crystal from a beast before it no longer was stored in his system. This was why it was taking him so long to level up.

Not only did not every beast give him a crystal, but he also couldn't fight the same beast again and again. 

The arena floor had not been cleared and Roki was ready once again. He looked at the crowd and took in all their cheers; this was what he loved. Then his eyes seemed to catch something that was a bit unusual. Out of everyone who was there, there was one person who stood there still with his arms folded.

He didn't move, and there was no reaction at all. He stood out with his red armour and black hair, but the intense look in his eyes was what had caught his attention.

'Is he a fighter as well?' Roki thought, but he didn't have much time to worry about that. For the king tier beast was ready to be unleashed. The beasts were held underground. Here all the different tired beasts would stay locked behind galthrium made cells. When one was to go out, the cell bars would lift up and the beast would be led by the scent of blood..

It knew where to go to get its next meal, heading straight for the arena. From the large exit, Roki looked carefully at what his opponent would be. His heart almost felt like it was about to come out from his mouth. The long sword in his hand was slightly shaking, but it wasn't from fear, it was from excitement.

Finally, out of the cell came a creature the same size as Noir came out. It was as big as a standard house and stood on its large two legs. It had spikes going down its spine that continued until it eventually reached its tail, which was its most prominent feature. The tail itself looked like a large blade. It had a sharp edge to it but was nearly as big as the main body of the creature itself.

"A non elemental ability then, but it looks like it's physically strong." Roki said looking at the beast.

Using its large snout it started to sniff the air, until it finally got onto a certain scent and roared loudly heading straight for Roki in the centre.

"Is its eyesight bad?" Roki thought, otherwise the beast should have spotted him straight away, but for some reason it was using its nose.

The two started to charge towards each other into the centre, but once the beast reached the halfway point, it did a spin swinging out its tail towards Roki. It was unexpected for Roki, and the attack was faster then he thought. He had fought against beasts with tails before but not one like this. It seemed as if the blade like tail was able to even cut through the wind resistance, making it go faster than any tail attack he had seen before.

The only thing he could do was block the attack, placing the sword by his side. As the tail whacked into his sword, the force was great, flinging his body into the side of the arena. A bang was heard and dust and rubble was thrown to the floor.

The crowd seeing this cheered, as they did not care for a winner or loser they were just being entertained right now. Quickly getting up from the floor, Roki spat out some blood that had entered his mouth, and moved in once again.

When they were close enough, the beast tried the same attack again, spinning it's tail. This time Roki was prepared and infused his Ki into the blade he tried to match the power and timing with the heavy tail. For a second it looked like it had worked as the tail was stopped when the two forces had collided.

But a few seconds later and the tail hit him once again and slammed him into the wall on the other side once again. It was clear if he was to go on like this he would lose, but making a quick recovery he picked himself up and charged forward again.

"Is he an idiot." Someone from the crowd said.

"Does he think he can win by doing the same thing again and again."

The beast spun again, throwing out its tail and now Roki lifting up his sword was prepared to attack the tail again.

"He has the timing right now." Ray mumbled.

At that point, the sword was swung downard hitting the tail at the right time , to throw it of course. As the tail slammed into the ground it managed to slice around a meter deep before it completely stopped. Jumping up on the tail, Roki ran upward and across its body until it eventually reached the head.

Using all his strength, Roki empowered his sword with Ki until it was even visible to those on the outside. A faint green aura could be seen surrounding the sword, and with a single swing, the beast head had flopped onto the floor and the beast fell shortly after.

The crowd cheered in response once again and started to chant for him to move onto the next stage. Roki looked up again but unlike the last fight he was quite injured this time. Although he didn't want to disappoint the people watching him, at the same time he wasn't a fool who would risk his life for others.

Placing his sword into the ground was him signaling he would not be going on to the next round. The others knew this as they had become a frequent watcher of Roki's matches. They were hoping for the first time they would see him move on to the Emperor stage but it looked like today would not be that day. They all started to m.o.a.n in disappointment and some of them started to leave the arena completely.

"Are you going to watch the next contestant?" One of the audience members asked.

"No, have you seed the odds they gave him for the advanced tier. Do you really just want to watch someone beat a basic and intermediate tier and then give up? That's so boring."

Many people had the same thought as the man currently speaking, which was why they had decided to leave even though there was a new contestant participating. Ray too had left the crowd as it would soon be his turn.

In the reception area, Ray was now sitting down on a wooden bench that had no back patiently. There were many people now in the reception trying to find out about the next participant. Some chose to stay while most of them left.

But then, Roki had also come out from the arena after having some of his wounds tended to and entered the reception. In a few seconds, he was completely swarmed by a crowd of people who wished to talk to him.

But he wasn't concerned about them, because while looking through the crowds of people he spotted one person sitting on the bench on his own, and it was the same person who didn't care back at the arena as well. 

'Is he a contestant?' Roki thought, seeing how strangely he was acting, on top of the fact that he had beast gear all over him.

"Will the contestant known as Nes Delon please make their way to the arena floor now." The speaker announcement spoke.

Hearing this Ray stood up from his seat and headed off towards the arena, walking right past the crowd and Roki, not even looking at them, but Roki noticed that the strange man had a smile on his face.

"Perhaps I should stay and watch his fight?" Roki thought.
