Demon Lord's Reincarnation

Chapter 789: Mason's Troubles - Tatiana VS Riri I

Tatiana and her opponent walked inside the play area without any clue about Bertrandt's situation, and even if Bertrandt had never cheered so hard in his life, it amounted to nothing. His fighter didn't even last a minute as Tatiana rushed Sharon—easily breaking through her defense—and Bertrandt's eyes never looked so lifeless once she was escorted by the medical staff away.

"What are you two still doing here? Wanna talk to my sister or something?" Mason mentioned as he ordered his men to bring Bertrandt to their enclosure outside.

I was just about to reply when I saw a slap coming for my face.

That slap actually surprised me, not because it was unexpected or too fast—because I easily caught it by grabbing onto her arm, but because the person that sent it thought she'd actually hit me. Even Kaley saw it from a mile away and she didn't even bother to move a muscle. She knew the only way that that slap would connect was if I actually requested for it.

Mason took a second to react, "Mari! That's enough! Don't bring more shame to our—"

"Shame?! SHAME?! That's all you care about?! He saved my life and you don't even—"

*SLAP*

I had already let go of her but Mason slapped her across the face. He never looked so disappointed toward his sister and he was shaking his head as he looked at her.

"First of all, you got duped. Like everything he has ever done, it was all for making his life easier. He took the credit for 'saving' your life—and got a nice suite for it—heck, you even fell for the guy but it all stops now. Mari, have some self-respect. You—"

Mason wasn't even done speaking when he received a slap from his sister. He was this close to slapping her again but she just took off and tried to follow her "lover". However, Mason contacted his people to take care of it and he was shaking his head when he took a seat.

"Still here?"

"You got some problems, eh?"

"Cheh, everyone does."

Mason offered me a seat as Kaley already went back to our spot, and cheers just resounded after another match concluded. It seemed like he wanted to say something though when I looked around their spot, Mary and Brian were nowhere to be seen.

"They're probably getting shitfaced, don't worry about them."

"At this hour?"

"Heh, coke's one hell of a drug. You'll see them tomorrow. I'm in charge, for now… Well, Mari is supposed to be doing it with me but she's just so fucking stupid—more stupid than me and I'm left to do every little thing that they should be doing."

"I see. So, what do you want to talk about?"

"Right, right. Are you interested in a suite—"

"PFFT! Hah! The luxurious one?"

Mason let out a genuine smile, "Yep, that one. As of now, it's free real estate."

"As long as it doesn't involve fixing matches, I might be interested. How much?"

"Tatiana—"

"I don't deal people either—"

"No, I want to have another chance. I wanna try again."

"That's it?"

"That's it."

"Are you sure? Your chances are less than 1%, honestly speaking…"

"Hey, forgot who's in charge of my family's affairs? I can do what I want."

"She'll beat you up, I promise you."

"But I'll live. If it's Quinn, I'll definitely die… No matter how good it felt…"

"What?"

"What?"

"You mean…"

"I like strong girls. So what?"

We unconsciously gave each other a bro handshake.

"You know, me too… me too… Hey—"

"Gotcha, bitch! I'm gonna break your— AH! AH! AH! Why are you so fucking strong! I'm bigger than you!

I GIVE! I GIVE! Dammit, man! That fucking hurts!"

"Big doesn't mean strong, dude. Remember that…"

"Well~ Sometimes, it does…"

"Hmm, true…"

"So…"

"Hmm?"

"You tapping that ass?"

"..."

"C'mon, man! Just tell me! It stays between us, I promise?"

"Haaa… Whose ass are we talking about—"

"Oh~ Shit! You fucking dog! How'd your wife take it?"

"Umm…"

"That bad, huh? Glad you two are still toget—"

"No, she's the one who suggested it…"

"..."

"Mason?"

"You know what? I wanna punch you so bad but I wanna fucking shake your hand… Like, for real this time… You're like the man among men."

"Sure?"

"So… Who do you like better—"

"And~ I'm going back."

"What?! We're just getting started!"

"I don't kiss and tell as much, Mason. Especially if— no, I'm not gonna even mention that…"

"C'mon, man! Just give me a few tips to score!"

"Heh. You'd have an easier chance going to the Pink House."

"That's super easy! I want a challenge!"

"Fine."

"For real?! You're giving me tips?!"

"Heh. Clench your jaw."

"Wait— what?"

"See you later, Mason…"

"What do you— Fine! I don't need your help anyway!"

"Uh-huh."

I didn't anticipate Mason to be "okay" after our first meeting but yeah, he seemed decent. We still had a few things we disagreed on but that's how things almost always go.

With that said, I didn't think that there were only a few people left and the time had finally come.

Tatiana Smirnova VS Risa "Riri" Sandoval

There was a lot of tension when I went back to my spot because not only was the twins taking it seriously, it seemed like Tatiana was being cautious as well. Most of the matches she was in were pretty much a landslide, and there were only a few that gave her trouble. However, there was something different about the way the twins were acting.

Riri just gave Ruru a nod before she went down with Tatiana, and Ruru looked to be paying special attention.

She wasn't even conversing with us—as her eyes were just glued to the two and it even looked like she was also participating in the match.

'Wait a second…'

It didn't take long before the signal was given and like clockwork, Tatiana made the first move. Her leg just tore through the air with great velocity and it was for the purpose of ending the match in one go.
