Chapter 107 Little Guest
Chapter 107 Little Guest
After Kus let out his frustration, the hall fell into silence.
Time passed, but no one talked nor anything could be heard, as no one had anything on their mind.
Kus finally broke the silence and said to both of them. "I guess we have to sacrifice our own."
Bast's eyebrows twitched upon hearing that. "How much more will you sacrifice of our own!? You already have taken close to twenty girls from our family."
"Huh?" Kus' forehead frowned. "Are you talking about morals now, Bast? Isn't it you who was the first person to agree when I asked if we could use some of our girls? Now, why are you talking about this? And don't tell me you want to destroy our family by making the Lord angry?"
Bast wanted to rebuke, but no word came out of his mouth.
Pol didn't pay heed to their argument, as it was not the time for it, he said. "Do you know anyone from our family who qualifies for this? Because I know we are having kids with less potential."
Kus thought for a second, jogging his mind. Then something flashed in his mind as he looked at Bast. "I actually know one. I heard Brustiar's wife had great potential but couldn't do much because of their marriage."
"Kus!" Bast shouted in rage as the wind blew out of his body, blasting dust and any kind of small object on the ground.
However, Kus didn't get angry this time, he said to Bast with a smile on his face. "Don't be like that. Imagine the resources we will get from the Lord that will make our cultivation go further. Then we can get Brustiar a better woman than her. She might even give birth to a heaven-defying genius too."
Bast's anger slowly calmed down as he thought through what Kus just said. He truly wanted a grandchild who was a once-in-a-million genius.
Finally, A smirk grew on Kus's face as he saw his words being able to sway Bast's heart. 'Bast, we both might hate each other to the bone, but we also know each other's hearts better than anyone else.'
Pol, who was watching this entire scene play from the side, had his vigilance increased to maximum. He looked at Kus's smirking face, worriedly. 'I should not meddle with this guy much, he is very dangerous.'
…
A few minutes earlier, just before Gale finished his fight.
Central arena, VIP room.
Jasmine entered the room with a few dishes on the trolley she was pushing. She just came back and quickly cooked some simple dishes, but those were still better than most of the chefs could cook in this town.
Julie looked at Jasmine and raised her eyebrows in doubt as she didn't see Reg or, to speak of, Gale.
Jasmine started to serve the dishes in front of Julie's dishes. Julie formed a mental communication with Jasmine and asked.
'Where is he?'
'He is having fun.'
'Fun?What kind of fun is he having?'
'Oh, he is just testing his newly found strength on greater enemies.'
Julie was dumbfounded to hear that. Kaley also got the same answer as Julie when she asked Jasmine the same question.
Odino was smiling to himself, thinking what kind of adventure Gale was having just by guessing his absence.
At that moment, something grabbed my attention.
Two new participants entered the battleground. One was from the Burnheart, and the other was from the IceFire.
There was nothing special about Burnheart, as only Ban was able to leave a great impression, but from the IceFire, it was a different story.
It was a valiant girl with a fierce yet calm aura around her. Her open hair was swaying in the air, and her hourglass-like body added to her sexy and warrior like charm. She had a spear on her back that had a white metallic shine. Her name was Freya IceFire, the top prodigy the IceFire Clan produced.
"Freya IceFire versus Faart Burnheart Begins!" Just as the referee announced, Faart dashed toward using the first move immediately.
" [ Burning Heart - First Form - Clashing Waves ] "
Freya didn't even bat her eyes at that upcoming attack. She took her spear from the back and thrusted it at the incoming Faart. " [ Ice Lotus ] "
Just as Freya completed her thrust, a lotus bloomed out from the tip of her spear in the form of blue fire.
Faart wanted to cut through that lotus. But when his sword touched the lotus, it immediately froze his sword. He wanted to escape, but it was to no avail. His body froze in a matter of seconds.
Freya looked at the frozen sculpture she just made and said, without emotion. "You were too impatient, you didn't even try anything. Huh~ I want to fight those guys."
Thinking of Ban and Jack, excitement filled in her emotionless face.
…
Nik, who was beside Julie, face palmed himself. "This girl is at it again."
"It is okay; geniuses are like that. They are different from normal people." Julie said nonchalantly as she ate the dish Jasmine just made for her. After eating it, she nodded in satisfaction. She had to say that Jasmine did have a pair of good hands.
Meanwhile, Odino rested his chin on the stand he made with his hand and grinned. 'She seems too eager to fight those guys, maybe this little guest of ours can give her that thrill.'
Odino was talking about Yuki, who was currently walking into the battleground.
…
Freya was about to leave, but from the corner of her eye, she saw a boy in a black, somewhat tattered cloak walking up to her direction. She halted in her tracks and waited to see what this boy was up to.
The referee also noticed Yuki's arrival and asked him. "Who are you? I don't remember having you in the final round. You should leave if you are not."
Yuki looked straight at Freya, pointed his finger at her, and asked calmly. "If I beat her, will I be able to join the competition?"
