The girls were shocked, watching the results of the match unfold.
"W-what...?" Yuki muttered, her eyes wide in shock.
"...Well damn..." Nika was speechless.
The match had ended, and the girls were still unable to comprehend what had happened. Rachel lying on the stretcher was a heartbreaking sight, and her being taken away to the medical center made it even more clear that the consequences of the matches were very real.
"Quite a humiliating loss," Nika sighed, the realization had truly set in.
"Yeah... I really thought she would've kicked some ass." Yuki agreed.
The sound of Marco's voice was heard again, which snapped the girls back to attention.
"Alright, well, that was a really interesting match. Well done, Zoe!”
"Thanks."
Zoe smiled at the compliment, though her gaze was glued to the direction in which Rachel had been carried away.
"We have one more quick match before we move on to the semifinals, folks..."
At the mention of the next match, the girls couldn't help but be worried.
"This one is going to be interesting. In the north corner, we have a rather...unconventional opponent,"
Yuki crossed her arms, her interest piqued. "Who is it?”
"...A slime girl. Please give a warm welcome to the bubbly, jiggly, Mona!"
The girls gasped as the translucent slime girl walked onto the arena, her excited expression never changing.
Yuki's eyes were wide, and Nika was curious, "A slime girl...?"
"This will be weird..." Yuki muttered.
"Yeah," Alice concurred.
The slime girl bounced around the stage, her movements jiggling with her each step. It was hard not to stare at her.
"I can't imagine how a fight against a slime will work..." Nika commented, her gaze fixated on the jiggly girl.
"Alright... And Mona's opponent will be...Nika!" Marco called out, his loud voice echoing through the arena.
Nika's eyes widened, a mix of surprise and nerves coursing through her.
Yuki patted her on the back, a supportive smile on her face. "You got this, Nika!”
Nika took a deep breath, her body tense in preparation.
"Never fought a slime before...but I can do this."
"That's the spirit!"
Yuki's words of encouragement bolstered Nika's confidence. Kicking her shoes off, she walked down onto the arena floor, her gaze locked onto the jiggling slime girl, Mona.
The slime girl was hopping up and down, her jiggly figure full of energy.
"Yayyyyy! I'm so excited!" she exclaimed with a cheerful tone, a wide smile plastered across her face.
Nika couldn't help but stare, the match-up was still a bit odd to her.
"Yep...this will be a weird fight.”
"Ready to play, sweetie?"
Mona giggled in a teasing tone, her body jiggling with each movement.
Nika rolled her eyes, not surprised by the slime girl's attitude.
"I'm ready...let's do this.”
"Yaaaay!"
Taken from Royal Road, this narrative should be reported if found on Amazon.
Mona bounced up and down, a wide smile still plastered on her face.
"Begin!" Marco shouted, signaling the start of the match.
Mona bounced forward, her entire body jiggling with each movement. She moved with surprising speed, closing the distance between her and Nika.
Nika's eyes widened as she saw the bouncy slime girl approaching her with surprising speed. Thinking quickly, she dodged to the side, narrowly avoiding Mona.
Nika dodged the lunges and bounces from the slime girl, but Mona was relentless. Her jiggly form was making her a bit unpredictable due to her flexibility.
"Wow! You're pretty quick, sweetie!"
Mona giggled, clearly enjoying the match. She continued to dart around, trying to catch Nika off guard.
"You're not as easy as you look..."
Nika dodged and weaved, trying to find an opening to strike back. Mona's unpredictable movements made her extremely difficult to land a hit on. After a moment of evading, Nika finally found her opening. She leapt up above Mona and fell down, performing a butt slam.
"Ooooh!"
Mona was surprised by the move. The impact of the attack had little effect on her since she was gelatinous, but her upper body was squished into a butt imprint against the arena floor.
Nika stood up and looked at the imprint that was now Mona.
"What the...That did nothing?!“
"Hehe...Not quite!"
Mona chuckled, her cheerful demeanor still intact. With a quick pop, her deformed form returned to normal in an instant, like nothing happened.
Nika was puzzled by Mona's quick recovery and lack of pain from the previous move. She knew this was going to be a tough match.
The slime girl bounced up, a wide smile still on her face.
"You're fun to play with, sweetie!"
Mona lunged forward with another attempt to catch Nika off guard.
Nika evaded the lunge once more, her irritation growing slightly.
"You just won't let up, will you?”
"Nope! I wanna play more!"
Mona giggled again, still having fun toying with Nika. Her wobbly yet quick movements made it difficult for Nika to find an opening. It took her a few seconds to get another opportunity, jumping forward to land a jump-kick on Mona, leaving impressions of both of her feet on Mona's jelly-like body.
"Oooh! That feels kinda nice~"
The feet-shaped imprints disappeared as the jiggle-y slime girl's body returned to normal in a few seconds. She seemed to be enjoying this, her smile never leaving her face.
"Ugh...this is impossible!"
Nika was becoming increasingly frustrated. She couldn't land a single move that had a lasting impact on Mona, and the slime girl seemed to be having a blast toying with her.
"Aww, are you getting frustrated?"
Mona let out a teasing smirk, her body jiggling with each word. She was clearly enjoying the fact that she was getting on Nika's nerves.
Nika scowled at the taunt, lunging forward at a blinding speed and landing another, more powerful butt slam on Mona, leaving a deeper imprint than before.
"Oof!"
Mona was bounced back from the impact, her body jiggling wildly. Despite the more powerful move, the imprint quickly disappeared within seconds just like the previous one. Mona let out a soft giggle, clearly amused.
"Hehe, you hit a lot harder than the last time! I think you like to use your bottom to attack a lot!”
Nika was growing even more annoyed now that Mona was being playful about her butt attacks. "Ugh...don't make fun of my fighting style like that!”
"Aww, I can't help myself..."
Mona shrugged her shoulders, her smirk still plastered on her face.
"Your fighting style definitely highlights a certain...feature of yours~”
"Ugh..."
Nika's cheeks tinged pink, her annoyance now mixed with embarrassment.
“Be quiet about my butt already!"
"Then stop attacking me with it~" Mona fired back with a giggle.
"Hmph!"
Nika had had enough with the teasing. She was going to shut Mona up.
With anger fueling her, she readied a powerful butt slam, one stronger and more forceful than the other two she has performed during this match.
CRASH!!!
The most powerful butt-slam yet left a huge and deep imprint of Nika on Mona's squishy body, with Nika holding her pose for a good few seconds.
"OOF!" Mona let out a surprised yelp as the imprint was left on her body. This one was...different from the others. It was very deep and took a couple of seconds to recover.
But then Mona let out a giggle, still finding some amusement in it despite the pain. "Wow...you're really serious about using your butt in battle, huh?~”
"Just shut up already...!"
Nika growled out in agitation, still keeping her pose to make sure the imprint stayed.
"You're starting to get on my last nerve!”
"Hehe...I can't help it~” Mona giggled again, "It's pretty funny to me how you love beating people up with your bottom~”
"Ugh...I do NOT ‘love’ beating people up with my ass!"
Nika's cheeks were still pink with embarrassment.
"My fighting style involves using what I have to my advantage! There's nothing wrong with that!”
"If you say so~" Mona chuckled, clearly teasing Nika even more. "But your actions say something else, you're still smashing me with it again and again~”
"I... I..."
Nika was struggling to find words to defend herself from the taunting.
"Ugh...!"
Her cheeks were still burning with embarrassment but the anger started overtaking the embarrassment, and she slammed her butt into the imprint on Mona again, nearly doubling the size of the imprint's depth.
"Gah!"
Mona's body squished even deeper, getting even flatter against the arena floor.
"Hahaha...you really just love hitting me with your bottom, you butt-attack spammer~”
Nika's face was fully red at this point; she was embarrassed and irritated at the same time.
"Enough already!"
Nika slammed her butt against the imprint on Mona once more, putting her full body weight and force behind the attack this time.
"Oogh!"
The force increased the imprint yet again, leaving Mona very flat against the floor.
"Hehehe...you're making me so flat with your butt right now~”
"It's the only thing that seems to work on you.."
Nika grunted, her frustration growing. She was used to fighting opponents her own size, not a gooey, gelatinous opponent. She tried to think of anything that could keep Mona immobile...at least enough to pin her down. Then she noticed something above the imprint; what seemed like a blue disc.
…What's that? Nika thought, concocting a new plan. Maybe that disc has the answer.
