Chapter 225: Black
Elsa's battle ended quickly with not even one move, and the competition continued to proceed to the next battle.
The first battle, even though it was pretty anti-climatic, the audiences were still given the hype of the King-Level Spirit beast and complement it with the beauty of Elsa. It seems there was no protest about how the battle was going.
On the contrary, Ethan could be said as the unluckiest one. He had been defeated by Elsa in such a way that his image had been dropping a lot. And from the look of it, it seems his investor would soon retract their investment, leading to Ethan's shop bankruptcy.
The next two battles were a bit…
Even though there were a lot of cheers from the audience and the announcer said that it was a pretty interesting battle, to Ray, it was just like two kid spirit beasts brawling with each other.
Let's not say about the battle of two cannon fodder… Even in the battle of Jack's team, Jack decided not to come down and let his partner do everything, resulting in a pretty long and draggy battle as there were no significant gaps in the term of strength.
After the three battles, the committee gave the participant and the audience a few hours of rest.
There were shows from some famous musicians of the world, advertisements, etc.
Things didn't interest Ray much until he saw the existence of a familiar figure in one of the guest star line-ups.
' Hey Aina, Correct me if I'm wrong. But isn't that Reiji? What is he doing there?'
[ DING!!! Affirmative host. Because The host didn't fully take Reiji's antagonist halo, Reiji was still counted as an antagonist in this world. So even though he didn't mess up with you, he still had some advantage against other people. He recently discovered his talent in music and was making music as his part-time job other than being a gangster boss.]
Looking at Reiji, a hint of nostalgia came at Ray. He still remembers the first villain he met and how he played around with Reiji's feelings. But now, looking at him successful like this, Ray somehow sighed a relief.
' Well, at least he is happy now. So there's no need to harass him anymore.'
[ Oh, by the way, host. His most famous song is "I am a proud cucumber." It is good. Thus Aina recommends the host to listen to it.]
' Wait… why the heck the word of proud cucumber isn't that unfamiliar to me? *Sigh* Nevermind…'
The break ended after one hour, and the next round of battle was ready to be started.
Currently, in the arena, the black-cat team and Cannon fodder D team were facing head to head against each other.
Both teams had summoned their own spirit beast and only waited for the referee to start the battle.
"Start!"
The referee raised his hand, indicating the start of the battle, and immediately the barrage of attack from the two teams began.
" Black Cat, Unlucky eyes!"
Like how their previous strategy worked, the captain of the black-cat team immediately used the skill of Unlucky eyes during the start of the battle. This skill was an auto-target attack, and there's no way to avoid it.
Suddenly, the opponent's team had a bad premonition in their heart, but they still didn't know what was waiting for them,
Even though Ray called their name as Cannon-Fodder D team, the weakest among them was still a low-general level powerhouse, and they were very prideful of their strength.
Seeing that the unlucky eyes didn't give any significant change to the state of the battle, the captain of the cannon fodder team nodded at his teammates and immediately instructed their spirit beast to charge forward.
" Mad Rhino, bullish charge and follow up by iron stomp!"
" Iron Bull, Dead Rush!"
" Thron Bull, Heavy Charge!"
Three combos of charging attack that was also the iconic move of the Cannon Fodder D team. And looking at this scene, all the audiences and the announcer were aesthetic.
" Kitaa!!!! The combination attack of the Emperor Horn team. This move was also the reason why the Emperor Bull team could easily dominate Group-D. With the power of my horn, everything comes to be torn. SO what will the Black-cat team do in response to this fierce attack?" The announcer explained things excitedly to the audience and gave the fight a lot more hype.
However, what they didn't notice was, even in the face of the deadly combined attack of the Cannon Fodder D team, the team member of Black cat's team didn't even bother to make a move.
They stood there idly like waiting for death, but suddenly, something happened that instantly changed the flow of the battle.
One of the audience mistakenly dropped banana peel to the arena, and then that accident happened.
The Banana peel fell right at the track of the Mad Rhino's charge, and with one slip, the Mad rhino's trajectory changed into the direction of the Iron Bull.
Then, A big collision happened between the two spirit beasts and left them almost impaired by the impact.
The whole arena was shocked by this scene, and even the announcer didn't know what to say.
A superb attack like that was defeated by single banana skin… If they didn't watch it right with their own eyes, nobody would even believe that this scene truly happened.
. . . .
In the VIP Room, Ray was watching the scene below with a frown on his face.
As a Daoist with a luck-manipulation-type spirit beast, he also knew how such a cheat they were. But this… wasn't this luck manipulation a bit too strong?
Ray placed his hand on Schwarz who was sleeping on his lap and woke her up.
" Schwarz, what do you think about that black cat?" Ray pointed to the Black-Cat spirit beast and waited for Schwarz to inspect it.
However, this time Schwarz's response was really out of Ray's prediction.
" I don't know Ray. His luck power should be lesser than mine… But, somehow I felt a familiar feeling around that Black Cat."
