Chapter 103
Another nearby man with a tall and bulky frame asked, “Does your sister know that you are applying to enter the Demonic sect? It is not that I want to brag, but our Demonic sect is quite brutal with newcomers, especially naïve and beautiful girls like your sister.”
Gerd shook his head and said, “Not a problem, I will protect her, and nothing will happen.”
He then said, “Continuing our previous conversation. We don’t have any more chances to aim at Yasenia or our other targets in this tournament. It seems that we will have to wait until the secret realm.”
A short boy with an innocent face asked, “Isn’t that big sister advancing fast? By the time she enters the secret realm, she will be a lot stronger. Can’t I just play with that big sister? I bet that if I “call” her friends, she will come and play for sure!”
Gerd didn’t like speaking with this boy. The boy was from the Thousand Poison sect and was a genius in poison making. However, he was quite eccentric and very ruthless. Just staying near was enough for Gerd to be uncomfortable, “Elias, Do you think that someone outside the tournament doesn’t protect her? Trying to kidnap her friends to lure her is plain stupid.”
Elias laughed happily, “My Master gave me some useful things! He said that I can put to sleep a level six and below Transcendent cultivators with it!”
Gerd and the others gasped. Jaxon, the muscular man, spoke impressed, “That thing must be very precious. Is it worth it to use it to kill or catch them?”
Elias’s smile became face splitting, “I will also be able to catch a transcendent cultivator~ I bet master will be happy with the new poison tester!”
A woman with an Icy countenance, black hair, and brown eyes said, “It seems that your brain has been flushed down the drain. Haven’t you seen that the senior beside them is the academy’s Headmistress? Do you think your master’s poison would even tickle her? I bet she can drink all your poisons for breakfast and write a taste review later.”
Elias’s face became expressionless, and he looked at that woman, “Everyone knows that the headmistress is weaker than the elders and some teachers. Don’t you think that she would have ruled these five continents already if she were as strong as rumors say?”
Elias sneered and said, “Those rumors are bullshit created and over-exaggerated by the academy to scare people and increase their fame and prestige. My master has been trying to speak to our Sect Leader and put some sense into him, but because thrash like you, Emery, exists, the Academy has the power it has!”
Emery looked at him with pity and shook her head, “Delusional children are truly troublesome. Do you think the ones behind us getting together would have tried to play these low tricks if Headmistress Katherine wasn’t strong? After discovering that Yasenia was her child, they began moving and aiming at her. That is why they contacted us.”
Elias became angered, and when they were about to explode into an argument, Gerd said, “Stop, I also do not think that the headmistress is that strong, but rumors can’t be fabricated out of thin air. Some of those rumors might be accurate. Elias, I will let it at your discretion, but I advise you not to use it now.”
Emery didn’t want to get a companion killed so soon and said, “Our organization has also tried to find a clue about the rumors being false. We found nothing. Do you think our silent blades information network is that unreliable?”
Elias sneered and left, “A bunch of cowards, brainwashed by propaganda, and misled by bribed information dealers.”
While leaving, his face returned to the innocent smiling face, and he spoke to himself, “Mom likes this face the most; I bet I can become friends with them and trap them later~ I will kill everyone from the academy! Master will also praise me lots if I make his poisons work on the headmistress~ hahahAHAHA!”
In the infirmary, Evelyn groggily opened her eyes. She looked at the ceiling and tried to remember why she was here, ‘Ah… I won… I won!’
She looked at the side and saw Yasenia looking at her gently. She said excitedly, sitting up, “Yasenia, I won! Ouch, ouch, ouch.”
Yasenia hastily put her down on the bed again and praised her mischievous girl, “How can my dear not win? She even used a partially evolved coat! My dear is a genius!”
Evelyn smiled gleefully, “I came up with it when we sparred with Andrea. Her usage of the [Chromosphere] skill is very different from your [Celestial coat].”
Evelyn began rambling, trying to tell everything she had learned to the dragoness. “If you use the coat as a skin layer, Andrea uses it more like a garment. I thought of solidifying my electric currents and making them armor-like, gaining a lot of defense and strength I lacked before. Before this, even if I was fast, I couldn’t pierce some armors. Now, I don’t have that problem! The armor makes it easier to use my [Radiant Lightning], the white lightning, and I can now make stronger attacks! However, it is very hard to control… I still need a lot more practice and cover more of my body with the armor…”
Yasenia listened to the excited Evelyn and marveled at her insights and ability to apply it. ‘Her energy control is outrageous. Well, Evelyn can absorb heavenly lightning, which is the strongest type of lightning.’
Yasenia thought to herself, ‘Maybe her understanding of the lightning element has improved that much this way?’
Yasenia lowered her head, and kissed her forehead, then she said, “Dear, let’s hear tomorrow’s tournament rules; I also have yet to listen to them.”
Evelyn was surprised, “What happened to you to be unable to listen?”
Yasenia lay on the bed beside her and hugged Evelyn from the side, pressing her soft body on Evelyn’s while avoiding her wounds. Andrea answered, “What can happen, Evelyn? Yasenia directly jumped off the stands when your match ended and has been helping the medical staff since the beginning.”
Andrea smirked and said, “How do you think you had your clothes changed and body washed?”
Evelyn looked down and saw that, as Andrea said, she had normal clothes instead of her previous cultivating robes, and the parts of her body that weren’t damaged weren’t smeared with blood. Yasenia snorted and said, “My dear was so badly hurt; Naturally, I had to help heal her! Now, stop stating the obvious and tell the rules. I want my dear to rest all she can after that.”
Evelyn looked at Yasenia, and, ignoring her wounds, she turned and buried her face in her breasts. Yasenia looked at the buried Evelyn and caressed her head. “Why do you move so much, dear? doesn’t it hurt? Stay still so that your injuries get better.”
Evelyn’s voice sounded muffled as she said, “L-let me be; I want to hug you. M-moreover, your scent relaxes me…”
Yasenia smiled tenderly and hugged her closer, making her scent a little stronger. “Since my dear wants to, who am I to say no, right?” Evelyn nodded and tightened her hug.
Angel spoke in her silvery voice, “The thing that you should watch out for is that everything is allowed. People can use poisons, stronger treasures, pills, and similar. Thankfully, the matches won’t be to the death. There will be a senior protecting the disciples.”
Yasenia nodded, so Cecile continued. “The matches will be against people of similar strengths. Although it seems impossible to order us like that, it seems that the formation has a recording function only accessible by the sect leaders. They will use this to make a “fair” tournament, which is very rare. It seems that instead of sending the strongest from this tournament, they want to send the disciples with the most potential.”
Yasenia raised her eyebrow and asked sneering, “Did I understand it wrongly, or am I going to face off against the others who managed to get a perfect score? Isn’t this going to reduce a lot of the strongest competitors?”
Evelyn spoke with her head still buried, which tickled Yasenia, “With the previously distributed entrance slots, the sects already have the strongest disciples entering anyway. They want to unqualify the strongest competitors under the banner of fairness. That is also why we are allowed to use anything. Even if someone is strong, a rich kid can bury them with their wealth. Truly insidious, we will have to prepare for a harsh tournament.”
Yasenia looked down and smiled, “En, I was thinking the same. This seems a tactic used by the righteous side, doesn’t it?” Evelyn nodded.
Angel and Cecile, who don’t give things so much thought, were impressed by Evelyn. Angel chuckled and said, “No wonder Yasenia wanted to wait for you to wake up! Evelyn, you are impressive!”
Evelyn hmphed, but one could see her ears getting redder. Then she said, “Since you think I’m impressive… You have to keep your promise and let me fondle your tits!… Huh?” She looked up at Yasenia strangely.
Yasenia flickered her forehead softly with her finger and smiled, “My dear is injured. Do you think I would have the heart to flicker you like always?”
Evelyn, this time blushed for real and play with her hands. She mumbled, “These gentle attacks from time to time are unfair!”
Yasenia chuckled and hugged her near again, giving tap kisses on her head. She deepened her voice and said, “Am I only gentle from time to time? It seems that I have to spoil you more from now on~.”
Evelyn smiled happily, ‘More pampering! Lucky~.’
Tatyana arrived shortly after, and they left the infirmary. While they were walking down the road, a little boy approached them. He looked quite innocent and had a nice smile. He looked at everyone and looked at Tatyana a little longer, then he said with a smile, “Hello, big sisters-”
When he was mid-sentence, he saw Yasenia’s tail whipping towards his head, covered in a golden-silvery coat. He evaded with a hairbreadth of margin. However, while he was dodging, Yasenia shot a star toward his head extremely fast.
*BOOM!*
It exploded in front of his face and shot him backward like a bullet with a charred face.
*BANG!*
He hit a house at the side, and the wall cracked because of the impact strength. *Cough* he spat a mouthful of blood and looked towards Yasenia only to see the tip of a giant sword in front of his face. Then, he heard a voice carrying a terrifying growl, “Leave your spatial ring and scarm. Either that or you die. Choose!”
Before this, when Yasenia saw him approach, she instinctually didn’t like him. Moreover, he smelled like herbs that made her instincts tingle with alarm bells. Regardless, she didn’t act because this wasn’t a valid reason to move.
But when he looked at Tatyana, some killing intent leaked, so faint that only she and Tatyana caught on it. However, for Yasenia, aiming killing intent toward her mother was the same as touching her reverse scale. Something you shouldn’t do.
Yasenia’s golden-red eyes saw that he was about to speak and thrust her sword forward, touching his throat with [Draconic Heart]. Some stars were already flying around her, “One last chance, Take. Off. Your. Spatial ring.”
He looked up with hatred but did as Yasenia told him.
When he took it off, he threw it toward Yasenia! Then, he used the distraction to take out the poison…
Well, that was the plan if he didn’t have a giant sword currently piercing his throat and spine, immobilizing his lower body.
Yasenia wasn’t even looking at the spatial ring. She was already stabbing her sword the moment he made a suspicious move!
