Chapter 363: First Victory

Chapter 363: First Victory

"Today's winner is, [Machine Revolutio]!"

After these words sounded, the students of [Gathered Feathers] froze.

Including their leader.

'How!?' Kany stared at Bloed with an expression of shock.

Unable to believe what he just heard, he looked at the demigod in charge of the game wondering if he made a mistake.

However, he saw the demigod looking at him with a pitying a helpless expression.

He immediately understood that it was not a mistake.

Although he did not know how or why, it was a fact that his club had lost the game.

Kany smiled bitterly.

'We did not even fight. How in the hell did we lose?'

Apparently, the difference between the two clubs was greater than he thought.

" I understand, this is our defeat." Kany said with a sigh.

"Boss!"

"Wait a moment, how did we lose!?"

"This game must be rigged!"

"Shut up!" Kany shouted coldly, shutting up the protests of his club members. "If the demigod says we lost, we lost. Stop talking."

"B-But, how"

"One of the members of [Machine Revolutio] infiltrate your base and destroyed the core." The demigod said with a cold look, obviously displeased by the words of the members of [Gathered Feathers]. "Do you have any other questions?"

Kany smiled apologetically and shook his head.

"No, it's our defeat." He then looked at Bloed and nodded with a bitter smile. "Congratulations on your victory."

Then, without waiting for Bloed answer, he turned around and left.

The members of [Gathered Feathers] followed after him. Although some of them looked at Bloed's group with an unwilling expression before leaving.

"Sore losers." Liu Ying snorted.

"Don't be so hard with them." Bloed smiled wryly. "It's normal to react like that."

"Yeah, they lost without even knowing what happened. It's normal if they feel a bit unwilling." Princess Elwha agreed with Bloed before smiling wryly. "I feel a bit strange, though. I was ready for a difficult battle."

Bloed could only smile wryly.

He preferred this kind of victory, though.

After that, the demigod in charge of the battle confirmed [Machine Revolutio]'s victory and upgraded the club's score.

With this victory, the club advanced to rank sixty-seven.

However, Bloed knew that it was only momentary.

Today was just the second day of the War of Clubs, so most clubs had not accumulated many points yet. This increase in rank was normal.

Once other clubs start their games and acquire points, the rank of [Machine Revolutio] would fall again.

'At least we don't need to worry about another challenge for a while.'

With a wry smile, Bloed followed the girls and returned to the tower.

Just at that moment, Gina rushed towards them.

"My hero! Congratulations!"

Seeing the honey-haired girl jumping towards him, Bloed smiled and opened his arms to catch her.

However, someone was faster than him.

"Little Gina, you are becoming bolder and bolder, huh. Trying to hug my boyfriend even with me here." Liu Ying smiled while grabbing Gina's nape.

"S-Sister Liu Ying"

"Right, I heard that you were instigating your sister to ask Bloed for a kiss."

Gina immediately stiffened.

"T-That, that is"

"And what was that about you and your sister marrying Bloed?"

"... She also called me a thieving cat." Aya also spoke up.

Gina blushed. She hurriedly looked away, avoiding the sharp gazes of Liu Ying and Aya.

But Liu Ying was not done.

" I think we need to talk, little Gina." She smiled and held Gina's arm, making the girl with honey-colored hair look at Bloed asking for help.

Fortunately for her, Bloed understood the message.

"Okay okay, I'm sure she was just joking."

"Bloed, she was definitively not joking."

"Mm. She is dangerous. And I'm not a thieving cat."

Liu Ying and Aya replied immediately, making Bloed unable to laugh or to cry.

" I did not know Mr. Bloed was a womanizer."

And for some reason, he received Princess's Elwha piercing glare.

Fortunately, the rest of the club arrived at that moment, so the girls stopped talking about that topic.

Instead, they put on happy and smiling expressions, excited after the club won its first battle.

Seeing that, Bloed decided to organize a small party at night to celebrate the club's victory. It was also a good opportunity to make the members of the club closer.

Right now, some members of the club barely knew each other, so the party could be a good opportunity to integrate the entire group.

Now that he thought about it, it was the first time he organized this kind of party. He should have done it earlier.

Before that, though, he had to deal with an unexpected situation.

Looking at the group of young men and women standing at the entrance of the tower, Bloed felt a headache coming.

"Okay, tell me, what is the reason you are here again?"

The group looked at each other before a young man stepped forward with an excited expression.

"We want to join [Machine Revolutio]!"
