Chapter 91 Bac Vs ?
Knock Knock
Just after Gale knocked on the door, a voice came from inside.
"Enter."
'She woke up early too!'
Opening the door, Gale was met with the beautiful sight of Julie's beauty. The sunlight shone on her pale white skin, which reflected her frailty, but there was a strong vitality emanating from her that would scare most people away. Fire sparks came out of her body because of her cultivation, which sparkled under the sunlight.
'She is beautiful!' Gale couldn't help but appreciate her beauty in his mind.
"You woke up very early." Julie opened her eyes and spoke with a bit of surprise in her voice.
Gale's eyebrows twitched a little. 'Does she think I am that weak? I am not easy to be drained.'
However, he didn't say those out loud; instead, he calmly answered. "Morning is the best time to cultivate. There is a peace in it that is hard to get in other times."
Julie agreed with Gale's statement, as it was truly nice to cultivate at such peaceful atmosphere. She looked at Gale. "So, you came to do your job?"
Gale simply nodded his head without saying anything.
Julie dropped her robe without any kind of warning and placed her naked body in front of Gale's eyes.
Gale was dumbfounded by her action, and there also seemed to be no shame in her face. 'Why did she become so open-minded!?'
"Come, do it quick. Don't just stand there in a daze, watching my body. I will dispose of you if you try to behave like that," Julie threatened Gale, which brought Gale back from his dumbfounded phase.
Gale came before her and did the same as yesterday.
The room quickly got filled with Julie's cries of pain, but it was much less than yesterday. She seems to have already gotten used to it.
Gale did that for one minute, and he was out of spiritual energy. He severed the spiritual fire thread and stumbled back. Most of his body was covered with ice, but he has saved even spiritual energy today to not get fully injured by those.
Gale rubbed the sweat away from his body and said."It will take eight more days to destroy that curse, and if I can get stronger, the time might decrease."
"Thank you for telling me that." Julie quickly covered her body with the robe and froze off the sweat on her body. She might have endured it but it was still painful as yesterday.
Julie was a bit worried about how long this process might take, but from Gale's words, a soothing effect happened in her heart.
Gale then cupped his fist and left the room.
Julie looked at his figure disappearing from her sight and mumbled to herself worriedly. "Am I not beautiful enough? He didn't react much when she touched me and saw my body. Does that mean every man will do the same or is it just him?"
A competitive spark appeared inside Julie's heart that wanted to conquer Gale's heart. Which women didn't want men to appreciate their beauty? As the most beautiful person in this town, told by everyone and now you find someone did not actually agree; how can she not want to get that man's heart?
...
While Julie was contemplating about Gale, Gale himself was now heading toward the central arena's direction.
'Let's see if something interesting happens.' Gale decided to check on the selection process first.
He would mark some noteworthy guys in his mind and he would do this the entire week. This whole week's routine for him would be like, waking up early, weakening Julie's curse, coming to the arena, going to Fiona's office to spend time with her, and then coming home to dual cultivate with the other girls.
Taking a seat in the arena, he looked around and saw a considerable number of people present.
Shortly afterward, the duels began. Gale saw all kinds of flashy fights, but there was nothing that would catch his eye, so he was somehow getting a little disappointed.
However, that changed when Bac's turn came. Surprisingly, he got matched with a commoner.
In the battleground.
Bac looked at the thin, frail-looking boy in front of him who was pointing his sword at him. 'This guy is too weak; I can win against him easily. But lucky for him, I don't want to win this.'
"Are both of the fighters ready?" The referee shouted at both of them.
"No, I am no- " Bac wanted to say that he wanted to quit, but he got interrupted by someone.
And it was none other than his opponent. "Please, don't say much. I know I am weak, but at least I might be able to showcase my true strength."
Bac's forehead started to twitch rapidly. 'What is this idiot even saying?'
"Oi, I don't want to fight you." Bac tried to stay civilized and not lose his rationality. Because his queen didn't want him to leave this town and for that, he had to get out of this competition.
The boy looked straight into Bac's eyes with firmness and a bit of mockery. "Why? Is it because I look weak, or is it because of the arrogance you have for your strength? Your arrogance won't take you anywhere. You have to exchange blows with warriors before assessing their strength."
'This guy is getting on my nerves!' This time, Bac's eyelids started to twitch as he tried to keep his anger from exploding. "I don't need to exchange blows with you. I ju- ."
"So, you are arrogant." The boy said it with disappointment.
'This bitch! He is dead.' Bac looked at the referee and said anxiously."Please start the battle quickly."
The referee was getting mad because they were interfering with his job, but that calmed down after Bac's urging.
"Bac Burnheart versus Jack Truder, Begins!"
The moment the referee finished saying that, Bac came before Jack and swung his sword at Jack's neck.
Bac was expecting Jack to die, as he didn't even seem to have reacted to his arrival, but what happened next shocked Bac very much.
Ting
Jack had blocked his attack, and he seemed to have done it seamlessly. Jack looked at Bac with a slight smirk. "You shouldn't have been arrogant."
