“I declare, Tina is the victor of this duel!”
Commander Grace calmly announced in mid-air, then flew back to her own grandstand.
Actually, Grace found it quite uncomfortable being stuck in the middle of this duel.
On one hand, supporting Tina didn’t align with the short-term interests of the Windsor Family (Kelton’s loss of five million spiritual energy coins); on the other hand, not supporting Tina would not help the family’s long-term interests.
She suddenly regretted, thinking that she should have intervened when Kimberly and Tina first came into conflict, so it would not have escalated to its current point.
“But it’s never too late to mend; it isn’t too late to compensate. The five million spiritual energy coins can be seen as money spent to teach Kelton a lesson. From now on, she needs to discipline the younger generation at home, to prevent any conflicts with Tina.” Thinking this, Grace flew towards Kimberly’s seat.
At the same time, a deafening cheer resounded in the grand arena:
“Tina! Tina! Tina!”
The cheers were deafening.
Most of the audience were ordinary people who bought tickets just to enjoy the show, the gamblers among them were in the minority.
Tina, being a commoner’s daughter, continued to create miracles, even defeating her instructor this time! Many sincerely applauded for her, shouting her name.
It’s fair to infer that in the coming days, the bards in the various taverns in Orleans City would certainly be singing about Tina.
Tina wasn’t interested in the audience’s cheers. She tiredly dismounted from the unicorn.
The battle left her mentally and physically exhausted. Anna, the unicorn, was alright, but Tina suffered a dozen wounds of varying sizes, burning in pain from exposure to the air.
Su Yu quickly came over as well and used paper towels to wipe the blood around her wounds and on her armor.
Looking at Tina covered in blood, Su Yu couldn’t help but feel a hint of guilt.
Tina’s feelings for him were genuine, which Su Yu could feel.
But for his own purposes, Su Yu continually pushed Tina into battles, resulting in injuries time and again.
Moreover, he could foresee that such things will happen repeatedly in the future.
“I must find a way to compensate Tina properly!” Su Yu secretly made up his mind.
So he asked: “Tina, is there something you want to do after this duel?”
As he spoke, Su Yu transferred 1,200,000 spiritual energy coins to his Black Magic Crystal Card and handed it to Tina.
Tina took the Magic Crystal Card and checked the number on it. However, her emotions didn’t fluctuate much.
After putting away the card, Tina smiled slightly, “Thank you so much! After the duel, I want to sleep well. In the morning, I don’t have to get up early, once I’m fully rested, I can go to Green Valley Street to buy food, after a good meal, I can go shopping for clothes, watch circus shows By the way, Nemesis, would you like to accompany me?”
“Of course, as long as you want, I’ll always be by your side,” Su Yu responded.
“That’s great! Let’s make a pinky promise, no backsies!” Tina stretched out her pinky finger.
Su Yu also extended his pinky and made a pinky promise with Tina.
Chatting together, they left the dueling field and walked into the lounge behind the arena.
Veena Blackgold was standing at the entrance of the lounge, his cheeks flushed with excitement. This time, he had earned more than fifteen million spiritual energy coins!
He had never earned such a huge sum of money in his goblin life! Nemesis had effortlessly made a fortune!
However, he didn’t rashly disturb the two, knowing it was not his place to interrupt.
So Veena Blackgold waited quietly on a chair outside the door.
In the resting room, Tina shed her heavy armor and changed into a light brown trench coat.
Tina had an extraordinarily strong regenerative ability. By the time they had arrived at the resting room, the wounds all over her body had already scabbed and fallen off, her skin recuperated to a soft, delicate state. Other than her slightly pale face, it was almost impossible to tell she had been injured.
While changing, Tina took out a small stone from her pocket and handed it to Su Yu: “Nemesis, this is for you.”
“What is this?” Su Yu took the stone.
The stone looked like a pure white piece of pebble, and its surface was very smooth. Apart from the warmth that lingered from Tina, he couldn’t find anything special about it.
“My dad gave it to me.” Tina combed her hair while explaining with a smile. “This stone was taken from the fireplace in my house, I’ve always kept it with me. My dad told me to look at it whenever I missed home.”
“Oh? Then why give it to me?” Su Yu asked.
“Because ” Tina flirted by blinking her eyes, “I won’t need it when I am with you in the future!”
“Ding! [Orleans City Holy Maiden (10/100)] completed. Reward: Experience Points x5000, [Hearthstone (Golden)] x1.”
[Hearthstone (Golden)]
How to use: Set the location beneath your feet as your “home”.
Activating the Hearthstone from any location will teleport you to your “home”.
Cooldown time: 2 hours. Maximum teleportation distance: 1000 kilometers.
Note: It shines exceptionally brightly, probably because it was accidentally smeared with a drop of Tina’s blood.
“[Hearthstone]? This is a good item!” Su Yu’s eyes lit up.
If used correctly, the [Hearthstone] was akin to an additional long-distance teleporter. East Sea City was only a little over a thousand kilometers from the Imperial Capital in the real world.
Moreover, there was no limit to the number of times the [Hearthstone] could be used, and it would not break no matter how many times it was used.
In the game, he could set the “home” office in his territory. After finishing his research, he could return home in a click; this would save him so much time!
“No wonder it’s the reward from the 10th circle of the main storyline, this item suits me too well!” Su Yu felt greatly satisfied.
He didn’t forget to thank Tina: “Tina, thank you for giving me this stone! Tina? ” Su Yu’s grateful words were cut off halfway.
It turned out that while he was examining the [Hearthstone], Tina had fallen asleep on the leather sofa in the resting room.
“She must be exhausted from the duel just now.” Su Yu thought, taking out a mage robe from his bag and draping it over Tina.
After doing all this, Su Yu quietly left the resting room, intending to first withdraw the fifteen million and then return to find Tina.
However, as soon as he walked out the door, he received a game notification:
“Ding, [Orleans City Holy Maiden (11/100)] updated.”
“Mission requirement: Stay with Tina and wait for her to wake up.”
“Note: Tina can wake up anytime.”
“Uh, guess I’ll stay then.” Seeing the mission hint, Su Yu sat back down next to Tina on the sofa, watching her.
Not gonna lie, this was the first time Su Yu had seen Tina sleeping soundly.
Tina now had a blissful smile on her face, her cheeks a rosy hue. She looked like a complete angel!
“Maybe she’s having a good dream?” Su Yu quietly speculated.
There’s not much to do while waiting for Tina to wake up.
After admiring Tina’s sleeping face, Su Yu opened the built-in official forum in the game to see if there was anything new happening in the forum.
