"So, do you admit defeat, Kala?"

"Never."

"You are stubborn. How are you not out yet?"

"I won't fall. I can't."

Flame built up, so he crushed my hand.

I screamed out in pain.

"You are tough. Given even another year, and you could possibly surpass me."

"Heh, I'd be lucky if I lived another year."

"You are correct. You have earned my respect... Heather."

My eyes widened.

"So, I was correct. You do have a mole."

"Quite smart. It's a shame we couldn't be allies. Oh well."

He stomped on my head, causing it to crack.

"You are stubborn, even for a deity."

"I consider it one of my strengths."

"I wonder if you understand my skill. Is that why you continue to resist."

He wasn't entirely wrong. He had a unique skill, Slavery. When an opponent submits, he can take control of their minds in its entirety. It was high leveled too. He could likely control even me.

"Thought so. Well, I guess that you won't be coming quietly."

He grabbed me by the throat and tossed me over his shoulder.

"You can't move can you."

"I haven't lost until I give up."

"Well, I would kill you myself, but Gethel wants you alive for his own satisfaction on hurting you."

"Heh, I'll never give up."

"Let's see how long that resolve of yours lasts."

He opened a gate, and I could only laugh in defiance as he dragged my unmoving body through it."

Gethel POV

"So, this is Rose?"

"Yes, sir."

"Marcus, what happened to your arm?"

"She was so spirited. I had to beat her until she literally couldn't move."

"She doesn't have even a bit of presence."

"Left, sir. She doesn't have any presence left."

"How hard was it?"

"I beat the crap outta him, and the moment I regenerate. You'll be next."

"She's still awake?"

"Yes, that's the problem. No matter what I did, she never passed out, or even submitted."

"What of the world you caught her in?"

"About half of it is rubble."

"How many dead?"

"300 of our own sir."

"And civilians?"

"None..."

"What?"

"She went out of her way to protect the civilians."

"Could she have won if she didn't?"

"No, the power difference was still obvious, but I would definitely have a few more injuries."
