Chapter 396: Chapter 307 Dance of the Devils_2
“Of course, this is your entry form. Oh, right. Here we don’t address each other by our real nas, so I hope you’ll write the na or pseudonym you want to be addressed by as your codena.”
“Hmm……”
Duanmu Huai took the form, glanced over it, and filled in the word “Judge” in the na column before handing it back to the blond man. The latter took the form, looked at the codena written on it, and revealed a thoughtful smile.
“Very interesting, ‘Judge’, huh? This is really interesting… Well then, let’s see if you, as ‘Judge’, can overco all the obstacles standing in your way.”
At that, the blond man turned around.
“Now follow , it’s ti for us to draw lots.”
Following the blond man, Duanmu Huai and Honoka walked through a corridor and arrived at a convention hall on another side. As of now, this place was filled with people. As Duanmu Huai entered, quite a few people cast hostile glances at him – obviously, they had already seen Duanmu Huai’s previous battle from the television screens here. One could imagine that this man would unquestionably be one of their most challenging opponents.
It was clear that these were not ordinary people, their hostility and murderous intent was extrely intense. Honoka, terrified, hid behind Duanmu Huai, not daring to move. On the other hand, Duanmu Huai simply crossed his arms and coldly stared at everyone around him, seemingly considering them as lambs ready for slaughter. In fact, that was indeed the case – for Duanmu Huai, no matter who stood up against him, death would be their only ending.
That being said, this place had quite a few people Duanmu Huai was acquainted with.
Duanmu Huai glanced around, noting a few familiar NPC characters from his mories. ‘How did you all end up here when I didn’t see you during the Fighting God competition?’, he wondered.
Of course, there were also people whom Duanmu Huai had only heard of, but never t… Hmm?
At that mont, Duanmu Huai’s gaze was drawn to a particular individual. It was simple, out of this group, there were just several lonely individuals. By the rules of the Fighting God competition, these were won participating as solo participants, but… Wait, this person was clearly a man!
Seeing that “woman” with short red hair toting a sword, Duanmu Huai’s eye twitched. He knew who this person was – “Godslayer” Selica, a powerful swordsman who carried the na of a god slayer. For so reason, his soul had rged with a goddess’ body, resulting in a situation where Selica was male when filled with Magic Power, and once that was gone, he would turn into a woman.
But… co on! Could this genderless person participate in this competition?!
While Duanmu Huai badly wanted to criticize, he held back, considering that this setting was only discovered later by a player that had been tricked by Selica – that player was unfortunate, having been chard by the strikingly handso ‘sister’ during an adventure in Selica’s world, even fantasizing about creating a harem.
In the end, not only was his harem dream shattered, but his beloved ‘younger sister’ had even beco part of Selica’s own harem… exceptionally pathetic.
After that incident, that player had unveiled this hidden setting of Selica… Perhaps for the competition organizers, this person before them was just a woman.
His goal should be the Fighting God Powers… Yes, as long as he doesn’t end up in the sa group as .
As for who the poor bloke will be that will end up as the victim, that’s not Duanmu Huai’s concern.
“Mr. Duanmu!!”
At that mont, Honoka seed to have discovered sothing, pulling Duanmu Huai’s clothes tightly.
“Over there, over there, Mary is over there!”
“Oh?”
Duanmu Huai followed Honoka’s line of sight, sure enough, Maryrose was standing next to a man. She was wearing black and white maid attire, which seed to fit her quite well. However, at the mont, Maryrose seed completely void of her usual liveliness and ingenuity. She looked dreary, her head down, silently staring at the ground.
Next to her stood a tall and skinny man with a flat top haircut. He was even wearing sunglasses indoors and he seed rather ordinary.
“What should we do, Mr. Duanmu?”
“Don’t worry, let’s just see how things unfold.”
To avoid being noticed, Duanmu Huai looked the other way after a glance, signalling Honoka not to rush.
“Alright, everyone,”
At this mont, the blond man went up to the stage, clapped his hands with a grin, drawing everyone’s attention.
“As you all can see, all competition participants have been chosen. Now, we’ll use lots to determine the opponents. I ask every contestant to co up and pick a number from the box.”
Soon, each contestant went up on the stage one after the other, drawing their numbers from the box. However, Duanmu Huai didn’t have any intention of drawing, but stood at the very end. After all, the last remaining number naturally would be his. Why would he need to trek all the way up front and waste ti, right?
Soon, the drawing of lots was complete, and Duanmu Huai, as expected, got the last remaining number.
“The first duel tomorrow is between number 19 and number 3!”
The blond man unveiled a piece of paper from behind him, announcing the duelists.
Number 3 is Duanmu Huai, and number 19 is….
“Hahaha, watch out, this will be my first step toward ruling this city!!”
Hearing this mocking and arrogant voice, Duanmu Huai turned his head to see a tall man (of course, not as tall as himself), with sideburns and a weed-like hair, wearing a black jacket with white trousers, and a cocky expression on his face. He turned his head towards Duanmu Huai, pointing at him.
“Listen well, number 3, I’ll show you how formidable I am tomorrow!”
“That doesn’t really matter, but……”
On the contrary, Duanmu Huai imdiately shifted his focus towards the guy’s partner.
“Your partner…is she a schoolgirl? Is that even allowed?”
No wonder Duanmu Huai would say that, because standing next to Weed Head, was an obvious little girl. She had white hair tied in two pigtails, dressed in a sailor suit; no matter how you looked at it, she was just an ordinary schoolgirl.
Although the Fighting God competition was inherently illegal, this was downright criminal!
“Who did you say is a schoolgirl?”
Hearing Duanmu Huai’s comnt, the little white-haired girl glared at him.
“I am already 13 years old!”
“Isn’t that basically the sa thing? Is there a difference?!”
At any rate, should there be an age limit for such a competition? Otherwise, can you bring any old hag in her seventies or eighties to compete? What the hell?
“You don’t need to worry about that.”
However, Weed Head didn’t care about Duanmu Huai’s complaints at all and simply waved his hand dismissively.
“Because, tomorrow, I will win! Your woman will beco my spoils of victory, and once I acquire the power of the Fighting God, all the won in Duel City will be mine! Hahaha, I will beco the strongest king of this Duel City! As for you, you are nothing but the first stepping stone on my path to becoming the king! Wahahaha!!!”
“……”
There’s no point talking to this idiot.
Duanmu Huai rolled his eyes helplessly and turned around.
“Let’s go.”
“Ah, um……”
Upon hearing Duanmu Huai, Honoka nodded and followed Duanmu Huai out of the hall.
At this mont, Maryrose, who was in the shadows, also lifted her head. When she looked at the two figures, a look of surprise flickered in her eyes.
“Hm? What’s up?”
Perhaps sensing sothing, the man with sunglasses next to Mary lowered his head and asked her, but she hastily looked away.
“No, nothing.”
Although she said that, her mind was filled with shock.
Why are they here?!!
