She Belongs To The Devil

Chapter 154 - Graduation

When Nigel and Wulfric arrived at the arena that was specially prepared for the two of them, they saw that everyone was already waiting for the two of them. The King was sitting on the throne that was placed at the raised platform, in front of the fighting area. And the elders were sitting on the seats that were placed around the fighting area.

Nigel thought that this duel was not a big deal but from what he was seeing, it sure seemed like a great deal to everyone present in that arena. He wanted to ask Wulfric if this was some kind of a graduation test for him, but it was already too late to ask anything. Both of them were already standing in the middle of the arena while the others were watching them closely with their keen eyes.

Rhea was the one to oversee the fight and stop the fight if any one of them started to throw frenzied attacks on the other. She glanced at the King and when he nodded his head gesturing for her to start the fight, she looked at the two Princes and said in a loud voice, "The fight begins!"

Wulfric would normally joke around and tease Nigel in the fights that they had in the training ground. But right now, he looked dead serious as though this was some fight that determined his life or death. He glared at Nigel while the two of them circled around for a few seconds.

Seeing Wulfric this serious and being watched by so many powerful people of the clan made Nigel's confidence to dwindle a little..

Wulfric was quick enough to sense his brother's fear and taking advantage of his lost concentration, he charged at Nigel. He covered the distance between them in a single jump and landed right in front of Nigel. Then he threw a kick straight to Nigel's face sending him flying.

But rather than falling down on his head, Nigel used it as the momentum to do a backflip and he landed straight on his two feet. He placed his fists in front of his face and instantly took a fighting stance. That kick from Wulfric was enough to snap back to reality.

Without giving Nigel a chance to attack first, Wulfric pushed himself from the ground and did a side-flip. While still in the air, he prepared his foot to land a kick on Nigel's head from above so that Nigel would get pushed down to the ground.

However, Nigel was ready for any kind of attack this time. When he saw Wulfric doing the flip, he crossed his hands over his head to block the attack.

Wulfric's foot landed right on Nigel's forearms and as soon as it landed, Nigel bend his knees a little and pushed his heels with a great force, making Wulfric tumble to the ground. Without giving him time to stand up, Nigel changed his fingernails into claws and jumped on Wulfric.

His claws dug on Wulfric's arms, pinning him down on the ground. If it was their training then the fight would have been over but not here in the real match.

Wulfric gritted his teeth when the claws were digging deeper. His eye color changed into golden and he head-butted Nigel. While Nigel winced for a second, Wulfric managed to free one of his arms and dig his own claws into Nigel's belly.

Nigel growled in pain as drops of blood started to trickle down. And now he was also angered. His eyes also began to glow.

Wulfric managed to push Nigel off of him and he instantly began to turn into his animal form.

Seeing him turning, Nigel also followed the suit and began to change. He would not be able to fight Wulfric's wolf form while he was still in his human form. Well, at least that was what Rhea had told him. He never tried to go against a wolf before, and this was not the time to test that out.

Both of them were now in their wolf form. They transformed in under a minute. Wulfric was in his white wolf form and Nigel was the one with grey and white fur. They both circled each other again while gnashing their fangs.

The elders had slightly raised brows when they witnessed that even though Nigel started his transformation a few seconds late than Wulfric, he was the first one to completely turn into his wolf form.

The King had a faint smile on his face. He was proud of his nephew for being able to go toe-to-toe with Wulfric. "My sister raised her son very well," he thought to himself.

Everyone was now watching the fight with great interest. It looked as though both of them were equal in strength. If one would flip the other to the ground, then the other would instantly get up and give an equally devastating blow.

They were trying to bite each other, they were throwing each other on the ground, and were fighting like animals… which they were. The ground which was leveled before the start of the fight now had several holes, claw marks, and debris on it.

After a good while, Nigel finally managed to knock Wulfric on his back and he jumped on his belly causing Wulfric to whimper. Then he placed his claws right on Wulfric's neck, but careful not to dig his claws on his brother.

As if everyone were ordered, they all clapped their hands together marking the end of the fight. Rhea looked at everyone present in the arena. Everyone looked impressed with the duel, even the King had a proud look on his face. And she couldn't help but be proud of her students.

Two of the maids ran towards the wolves while carrying robes in their hands. The clothes that the two of the Princes were wearing at the beginning of the fight were torn into pieces when they had transformed into their giant wolf forms.

Nigel and Wulfric reverted back to their human forms and grabbed the robes that the maids were presenting to them. The maids didn't dare to raise their gaze from the floor. But the others in the arena, except Rhea, didn't mind staring at the Princes to check the wounds on their bodies when they were naked. They all had been through this kind of situation countless times in their lives and they were immune to the shame by now.

But right now, the others weren't the ones who were naked, the Princes were. And they couldn't help but feel ashamed. Even Wulfric felt uncomfortable with countless pairs of eyes on them. And Nigel, he wished that the Earth would swallow him whole because Rhea was standing not too far away from him. Even though she wasn't looking at him directly, he knew she could still see him from the corner of her eyes.

The Princes covered their shame with their robes and then turned towards the King to hear what he had to say.
