Season 38, Week 3
Heat
(Digital Devil Saga) 		 
Is this some sort of joke? Pathetic! The powerful digital devil Heat showed last week that no self-styled demon god is a match for him. This week, he faces Melfice, who possesses a mere fraction of the power of Valmar. Bringing the power of the mighty Vritra to bear, Heat can tangle with the best of Godlike, and Melfice doesn't merit that label, lucky championship or no. Tarunda will destroy his Attack stat, and thanks to Heat's immunity to Earth, Melfice will be unable to deal any effective damage to Heat's solid frame. His tentacles will shield his body from what damage Melfice has. And finally, the powerful Inferno Roar and Agidyne will make short work of this Valmar spawn. Top it off with the durability one would expect of of a giant, monstrous demon, and one thing is clear: this week, Heat is going to show Melfice why he is no good!

 The Horn of Valmar made a brutal return to combat this season, by wiping the floor with some puny archer of no repute. Next up is some scientist loser who wants to make a name off of Melfice. That's not happening. Heat may be many things, but equipped to deal with someone as powerful as Melfice isn't one of them. Sling a stat down? Melfice replies with one of his countless stat boosters. Try to outslug? Good luck with that, Ryudo's cursed brother is one of the finest swordsmen around, and his skill with Wailing Soul Slash is unequaled by any in the DL. Try to do anything? Meet Melfice's trademark crazy speed, which will have him running circles (as usual) around his poor foe, easily handling his every move. It's just a matter of wiping out this demonic imposter with a few Wailing Soul Slashes for Melfice to advance to the semifinals.

Vritra. THe Horn of Valmar. Fire. Earth. Demonic powers. Demonic powers. Pretty boy good looks. Pretty boy good looks. There can be only one result.

..."Wailing SOUL Slash!" Rinoa crumpled to the ground, mortally wounded from Melfice's attack.

The yaoi fans lay shattered by Melfice's charge. It was horrible. Pieces of whiny, clingly girls lay scattered about the ring. Rinoa. Shana. Sera.


...The last of which Heat noticed. He charged and tore Melfice apart with a string of Infernal Roars before he could so much as wipe the accursed blood off of Maken Valborg.

Heat: 32
Melfice: 23

"You know, there's one really good thing about this match." Heat noted with a laugh, as Melfice entered the arena.

"What are you talking about?" Melfice asked, confused(And, annoyed, as confusion usually inflicts on bishies.).

"Well, really, it's quite simple. I'll tell you about it after the match is over, though." Heat nodded to himself, satisfied.

It was a confusing battle, indeed.

Heat's monstrous form, the demonic Vritra, dominated the field.

But something was missing. Despite fighting with his full force, his tentacles were left out of play! Why would he give up such an advantage?

Still, after a narrow victory, Heat, exhausted, barely standing, stood in front of the kneeling Melfice, and let out a tired laugh.

"Now, I get to let down every single woman in the crowd by neither eating you or bringing out the tentacles." Heat said loudly, as, still chuckling, he left the arena.

Needless to say, yet another riot sparked in the Role-Playing Game Duelling League that day.

But they're pretty much like fierce thunderstorms, by this point. You get used to them, clean up after, and move on with your life. Though, you may need to get revived before you can do that.
