My System: An Evolved Computer I Made With My Unique Ability—
Chapter 333 Interrupting The Fight"See? What did I tell you? What are you going to do now?" One of the Managers complained, pointing at the live-stream broadcast. It was apparent that she was adamant about the entire situation, but she tried her utmost to suppress her anger.
"This is what happens when you give your Disciples the golden spoon. They lose control. At his level, he shouldn't have been able to control the Beholder." Another Manager heaved a sigh. "I guess that Disciple is dead. We can't do anything about this."
The other Managers knew that they couldn't do anything about the current situation, so they, too, just sighed in utter disappointment.
Well, all of them did sigh except for the lady Manager, who raised his voice a couple of seconds ago. Initially, she had no intention of revealing who her Disciple was. But now, she was about to witness that her Disciple was about to get killed in front of him... all because an irresponsible Manager indirectly caused his Disciple to lose control.
(The two disciples referred to here are Link and Jana. Because Link's Manager gave him the Beholder/Grundauge when he was not yet ready, the Grundauge took control of him, and now he's about to go on a rampage. Jana had already been defeated, but it seemed like Link had the intention to end her life right then and there.)

With everything that happened leading up to that moment, Link's Manager finally realized the effect of what he had done. Because he was too meddlesome, he caused his Disciple to lose control. And now, another Disciple was going to pay for his shortcoming. While Managers always wanted to get rid of competition, they never intended for their Disciples to kill each other. That's why Link's Manager felt a horrible taste in his mouth as he apologetically bowed his head toward Jana's Manager.
He was sorrowful, but nothing he could do could bring back what was about to happen. No matter how much he apologizes right now, he will never be able to bring back the life of a dead Disciple. "Do what you must. At least let me atone by receiving your wrath."
Both eyes of Jana's Manager turned bloodshot as she brought her right arm upward, pointing every finger towards his neck. "Allow me." She hissed.
Before she could bring down her arm, the Manager clad in black appeared in front of her, blocking her strike before hitting the Manager's neck. He then clicked his tongue. "You shouldn't do this, sweetheart. Look, your Disciple is safe and sound." He continued, pointing towards the live broadcast.
.....
Back to the American Dome, Official Beast Tournament.
Link stepped forward and aimed his dagger right at Jana's heart. Her head was already severed, but he still chose to pierce her heart. An act of killing her twice. "Let's just say you picked the wrong enemy?" Link commented as he followed through with his unjustifiable act.
Without batting an eye, Link pushed his hand, envisioning Jana's pierced heart as his grin widened in a creepy manner. But before the Crimson Dagger could touch Jana's skin, something blocked it, causing Link to fall back in bewilderment.
Clang!
"Looks like we barely made it in time, master." Ryu Ryoko spoke as she turned around. Her arm was partially transformed to her dragon form, and her crystal scales shone against the powerful headlights that flashed all around the American Dome.
"I guess. Fortunately, we were able to react in time." Satoshi heaved a sigh of relief as she walked toward Jana's severed head. He didn't waste any time putting her head back in place and healing it in a split second. Fortunately, Jana's body still had the lingering effects of Beast Integration; otherwise, she would've died the moment her head was severed.
"Oi, what's the big idea? She had already lost. Were you really going to kill her?" Satoshi already knew the answer to the question, but he wanted to give Link the benefit of the doubt. That's why he just had to ask.
A couple of moments ago, Satoshi and everyone else in the training room witnessed the climax of the fight unfold. That's why when he realized that Link was really planning to end Jana's life, he immediately summoned Ghast, Sera, and the Black Winged Dragon Ryu Ryoko to help him with the rescue. Of course, killing someone was frowned upon in the Official Beast Tournament. But if it had already happened, then there's nothing anyone can do about it.
That's why Satoshi didn't hesitate to act out of impulse, saving Jana before her life was cut short right then and there.
"One less Disciple for me to think about during the Initial Selection. Out of my way, you fool." Link's pupils dilated as he licked the sharp blades of the Crimson Dagger. Satoshi couldn't help but feel a little bit disgusted since he knew that the Crimson Dagger was a Representative. 'Did he just lick his tamed beast?! DID HE JUST LICK HIS—?!' Satoshi exclaimed in his mind as his eyes widened in disbelief.
"If you want to kill her, then you'd have to go through me." Satoshi returned, prompting his fists up in a fighting stance as if they were going to have a melee match. "I know you badly wanted to reduce your competition in this Initial Selection whatever. But right now, this is an Official Beast Tournament. A lot of people are watching, and a lot of children are watching. Blood and gore are fine, but killing someone is way beyond the boundary of a tournament."
"So? What are you going to do about it?" Link continued, his face contorting into an even creepier expression as time went on. Satoshi could barely look him in the eye due to how he looked. If one didn't know any better, one would probably think that LInk is possessed by some sort of evil spirit.
And he is indeed possessed, except the one possessing him right now is none other than his tamed beast, Grundauge.
"Crimson Dagger, Stretch." Link muttered, pointing the Crimson Dagger toward Satoshi.
At the same time, Satoshi decided to integrate with Sera. His initial treatment for Jana was already done, and he was relieved that Jana managed to survive. As the Crimson Dagger enlarged and continued to grow towards Satoshi, Satoshi didn't budge an inch. He stood there, willing to tank the attack as if it were nothing.
It didn't take long before the Crimson Dagger pierced through Satoshi's stomach. Blood escaped Satoshi's mouth as the attack connected. However, he firmly remained in place, asserting dominance on the battlefield. "Do you think this much could hurt me?" Satoshi asked as he spat out blood.
"Ryoko, get Jana out of here. I'm going to take care of this little son of a—" Satoshi's words were cut short when Link suddenly retracted the Crimson Dagger, revealing a gaping hole in his stomach where he was just stabbed.
Fortunately, thanks to Sera's insane regenerative abilities, Satoshi's fatal wound closed up in an instant. Everyone in the audience was shocked to see that Satoshi had enough energy to achieve such a feat so easily. Of course, they've already witnessed the phenomenon during Satoshi's fight against the Hero Disciple. Seeing it for the second time was an entirely different experience for the spectators though.
"Regeneration, huh? Not too shabby. But can you last against st my onslaught of attacks?!" Link taunted Satoshi even more, commanding his Crimson Dagger to stretch for the second time. This time, he aimed to pierce Satoshi's head.
This time, Satoshi dodged by teleporting toward Link's back. And as soon as he did, he aimed to chop Link's neck with his hand wanting to knock him unconscious. Satoshi forgot one thing, though— the fact that Link boasts his speed and agility.
Satoshi's attack came in slow motion towards him since he was still integrated with his tamed beast, Grundauge, also known as the Beholder. He dodged the attack with ease, straining his ankles and turning around as he delivered a punch to Satoshi's solar plexus.
The attack hit, and Satoshi reacted to it a little too late. By the time he teleported out of the way, Link had already given him two punches to his stomach. "Your rear side is so slow, a sloth can easily catch up to it." Link commented.
Link was already there when Satoshi reappeared on the far end of the Grand Stage, and he swung the Crimson Dagger right at Satoshi's neck. Satoshi dodged by ducking. This didn't stop Link from changing the trajectory of his strike. Now he struck downwards just when Satoshi dodged.
"Crimson Dagger, Stretch." Link called out, just before Satoshi could teleport.
When Satoshi came about, another gaping hole on his stomach could be seen, and he vomited blood.
