Villain Ch 393. The Duel Dome
The evening continued. Bella and Alice joined the gathering, completing the group. With their arrival, the conversation naturally shifted to lighter topics, steering away from the complexities of Allen's family matters. Laughter and camaraderie filled the air, making it easier for everyone to relax and enjoy the evening.
However, Allen couldn't help but notice that Jordan, the owner, had his eyes fixed on him throughout dinner. It wasn't a hostile or judgmental gaze; rather, it seemed contemplative, as if he were deep in thought. This scrutiny left Allen with a sense of unease, wondering about the owner's intentions.
Simultaneously, Allen couldn't help but ponder whether Jordan might be inclined to assist him in his quest to find his real father. The possibility hung in the air, unspoken but palpable, creating an undercurrent of curiosity and anticipation as the evening unfolded.
While Emma, Allen couldn't help but notice that Emma, Jordan's daughter, had her eyes on him as well, albeit in a different manner. It wasn't the gaze of romantic attraction; rather, it carried a mischievous, almost playful air about it. Emma seemed like a mischievous child searching for opportunities to play pranks on those around her, and Allen had become the focal point of her attention.
The dinner eventually drew to a close, and true to her spirited nature, Emma wasted no time in coming up with an idea. With a mischievous grin, she proposed, "Since all of you have gathered here, why don't we take a little stroll? I'd love to show you some of our latest advancements in gaming technology, which we plan to use in future tournaments," she suggested.
Bella couldn't help but express her curiosity. "Tournament? Isn't that a bit too fast?" she asked, raising an eyebrow.
However, Alice's reaction was quite the opposite. Her eyes immediately lit up with excitement at the prospect. The idea of checking the latest gaming devices seemed to resonate with her deeply, and her enthusiasm was undeniable.
Emma, in her usual proud demeanor, responded, "We're just in the preparation stages. The tournament itself is still a ways off," she assured them, her tone conveying her confidence.
Emma then sprang to her feet, her smile never fading. "Come on, everyone, follow me," she beckoned, her excitement infectious. She turned to her father with a playful glint in her eye. "And that includes you too, Dad. I've got some new implementations to show you," she added, extending the invitation to Jordan.
Jordan couldn't help but feel a mix of pride and concern as he watched his daughter's enthusiasm. He took a deep breath and offered her a piece of advice, "Just make sure you don't create too much trouble with these new implementations. You know how important it is to maintain a balance," he cautioned, his tone carrying both wisdom and fatherly concern.
Emma responded with an impish grin, her playful spirit evident. "Don't worry about it~" she said in a cute and teasing manner, clearly confident in her abilities to handle the situation.
With that exchange, the group willingly followed Emma into another room, ready to explore the latest technological advancements she had prepared to showcase.
The technology and gaming room was a fusion of sleek, futuristic design and state-of-the-art equipment. The walls were adorned with luminescent strips that emitted a soft, ambient glow, casting a gentle radiance over the room. The floor was covered in a responsive material that seemed to adjust to the movements of those walking on it, providing a sensation of walking on a cushion of air.
Large, curved screens adorned the walls, displaying various virtual landscapes, game interfaces, and data streams. The screens seemed to seamlessly blend into the room's design, creating an immersive atmosphere.
Emma explained each piece of technology with enthusiasm, her voice resonating through the room as holographic interfaces appeared around her. She showcased advanced controllers, VR headsets, and gesture recognition systems, each designed to enhance the gaming experience.
As she continued her presentation, the group's amazement grew. They marveled at the ingenuity and sophistication of the equipment, feeling like they were stepping into the future of gaming.
In the heart of the gaming technology room, the centerpiece that captured everyone's attention was the colossal Duel Dome, an awe-inspiring structure that resembled a massive, translucent dome. It stood tall, dominating the space with its futuristic design. The Duel Dome was a technological marvel that had been perfected for intense virtual dueling experiences.
The dome was constructed from a transparent material, allowing those inside to have a clear view of the action within while providing an exhilarating, immersive feeling. The surface of the dome was adorned with intricate circuitry and LED strips that pulsed with vibrant colors, giving it a dynamic and electrifying appearance.
At each of the dome's corners, two imposing capsules were stationed. These capsules served as the controllers for the dueling experience. They were sleek, ergonomic pods, designed for comfort and maximum control during intense battles. The capsules featured haptic feedback systems, allowing players to feel the impact of their in-game actions.
Emma turned to the others, a mischievous glint in her eyes. "This is the gaming arena that we will be using for the Hell's Gate competition one day. How about you guys give it a try and tell me your experience? Let's just say you guys are beta testers?" She beamed with pride as she revealed her idea, confident that Allen and the others wouldn't have seen this coming.
"Let me guess, you want to organize a little tournament between us, Ms. Emma?" Shea replied nonchalantly, her tone laced with curiosity.
Emma's smile wavered for a moment. "Did Kafra tell you that?" She wondered if her secret plan had been leaked.
Shea simply shrugged.
"Anyway, since you are the main villain of the game," Emma continued, her enthusiasm undeterred as she pointed at Allen, "we will start with you." She emphasized her intention by singling out Allen. "You will fight me," she added, determined to make this a memorable gaming experience for her guests.
