The Strongest Assassin Reincarnates in Another World

Chapter 114 Tournament [Part 2]

?

Then as the both of them continued a little about what happened this past month.

A voice echoed through the walls of the small room that they were currently in.

It seemed that there were being called because the tournament would soon start.

"All participants, please leave the room that you are currently in, and follow the orders of the person responsible for all of you," said the voice.

Aiden and Emma obviously listened to what it had just said and opened the door of their room.

As they opened it, they saw a lot of people doing the exact same thing, it seemed that had all been in such places. 

That was probably the case so that it would be easier to direct everyone over the area that they wanted.

Aiden and Emma, also, hadn't seen anybody enter those rooms and had no idea that other participants were also behind them.

Well, they thought that might be the case, but they weren't certain.

The masked Aiden and Emma coming out paid attention to those around them trying to see what their future opponents would look like.

But before they could do so, they were interrupted by the person who seemed responsible for them.

Unsurprisingly, that person wasn't a human, but a dwarf. Well, they were in the Ravenwood Territory, after all.

"Your attention everyone, I will explain to each one of you, how this Inter Family will be proceeding," said the dwarf, calming down everyone.

All the people who had currently been speaking instantly closed their mouths as this right here was one of the most important moments for them.

"Alright, so this tournament as you can probably guess from the place which we are in currently will be in the forms of duels," said the dwarf, taking a little pause.

'Just like I thought,' thought Aiden, smugly.

"So, you might ask yourselves, will this be team duels? How will it work? Well, don't worry because just like I said, I'm here to explain everything."

"Alright, make sure to follow me as this explanation is for all of you and not me. You all amount to a number of 200 participants, to make it so that the tournament doesn't go on days. We, the Ravenwoods, have decided that the first round will be in teams of four."

"The teams will be formed this way, it will be two members from the same family, with two members of another family. If you don't have two members participating in your family, then it will be two members of a family and two other members from a different family, is that clear?" asked the dwarf, realizing that his explanation maybe wasn't the best.

'Well, not really, but I think that I understood,' thought Aiden.

'Basically, Emma and I will be on the same team and will be paired up with members of another family or from two different families depending on the scenario.'

"Alright, I'll take that as a yes," said the dwarf since no one even uttered a word when asked that.

"And I don't think that I need to say that the team that loses the battle will be eliminated from the tournament."

"Then, after that, there will be one hundred of you left. It will be another team fight, this time, however, it will be two versus two. The same system as earlier will be applied when creating the teams."

"And, after that, then it will be true duels, where you only have a single opponent against you, did all of you understand how the tournament will take place?" said the dwarf, which seemed done with the explanation that he was currently giving.

Everyone in the crowd nodded, however, it seemed like some of them had some questions as they raised their hands.

"Yes, you," he said pointing toward one of the people who had raised his hand.

"Hello, I was just wondering about the rewards, is there that we can learn a little more about what they are?" asked the person.

The others who had their hands raised put them down as it seemed that this was the question that was on everyone's mind.

Aiden, hearing that question, was actually quite interested in it as he made sure to listen even more carefully to the answer coming out of the dwarf's mouth.

However, he was a little disappointed when he heard it.

"The rewards, huh? I guess that's why all of you are here. Well... I can't tell you that much, but we will be able to win something if you reach the duels that I just mentioned. However, I can't tell you what they will be, nonetheless, you should learn about them as you continue progressing in the tournament," said the dwarf.

Hearing this, many in the crowd only nodded already expecting such an answer, however, many were a bit annoyed by it.

Still, they didn't let it vocally as it was only their faces that seemed to show displeasure.

"Alright, so any more questions?" asked once again the dwarf.

Noticing that no one had raised their hands, he opened his mouth once again.

"Then I guess, I should start by forming the teams, huh? So, hmm... yeah I think that would work," muttered the dwarf, thinking about some potential solutions for drawing the teams.

Then, as he finished muttering some words, the system which had been calm since earlier made the usual beeping sound in the head of everyone present here.

Beep

[Your team is the following: Emma Everheart, The Reaper, Olivia Starweaver, and Logan Starweaver.]

'How the hell did that happen?' thought Aiden as he just couldn't understand how the little dwarf who was on the stage in front of him did such a thing.

He was like he asked the system something and it complied.

Was such a thing possible?

Aiden was very confused about it and remembered that he still hadn't gotten to meet with that mercenary that Maelis had talked about.

The mercenary, who was one of the main reasons why he had changed so much in the past month.

Still, he didn't too long about it, because as usual, he couldn't get any answers.

He now had to meet this Starweaver family, were they a middle-level family like them or a high-level one?

Aiden didn't know much about families, so it made sense that he had absolutely no idea who they even were.

There was also another problem on his mind, he had to find his teammates, how would he even try to do that?

They were 200 people, and they had to find two people.

"Do you know what they look like?" asked Aiden to Emma since she was a little more informed about such things than him.

But, she probably wasn't the best either as she hadn't recognized anyone in the VIP Suite.

"Hmm... no idea," replied Emma, as she didn't even know of a Starweaver family.

If Aiden were, to be honest at the moment, well... he would tell straight to Emma's face that she was useless.

But still, he managed to keep those words in his head.

She had been in this world for her whole life and she didn't know of the most important people of this generation.

Honestly, Aiden was a little disappointed in her, but he still remembered that she was also part of the most talented awakeners of her generation.

Then, as Aiden and Emma seemed completely lost, having no idea how to proceed, two people were approaching them.

Those two who were advancing toward them seemed to have an uneasy look, or rather an uncertain look, Aiden wasn't sure.

"Are you Emma and The Reaper...?" said the man, who seemed scared for some reason.

Maybe it was because of Aiden's appearance as he was wearing full black clothes with his mask which honestly could be considered scary.

But, if this was one of his teammates and if he was scared only because of his appearance then Aiden was going to be quite unhappy.

"Well... nice to meet you, I'm Logan and this is-"

"I'm Olivia Starwwaver, nice to meet you," interrupted the girl who had a little annoyed look on her face.

"Don't mind my brother, he is pretty shy in general but he has great skill, I can assure you that," said the girl, not even letting Emma or Aiden present themselves.

"I guess you're The Reaper, huh? Why are you hiding your identity, are you dumb?" asked the girl once again not letting either Emma or Aiden place a single word.

'First time that we met and she's already insulting, well alright...' thought Aiden.

"I'm not dumb, and yeah I'm the Reaper, I guess it's obvious from how I look," said Aiden, with a bit of anger as it wasn't pleasant to be insulted by some unknown person.

"Then, you must be Emma, wow, you look so good, are you guys together?" she said speaking really bombarding Emma with words.

Emma wasn't prepared for such a question as she blushed a little.
