Chapter 191 Another meeting with greed particles

Early morning.

Having already changed into a brand-new Holy Dawn school uniform, Ayrin stood in a test room, his face brimming with excitement.

Liszt, Songat, and Cana stood in front of him.

After having completed some detailed tests about Ayrin’s physical condition, Cana made her final injunctions at Ayrin before he left the infirmary.

“Remember, you’ve recovered very well, but even if you were to fight with someone, you still can’t use arcane skills at the level of a Thunderblaze Wall or a Ruin Fetters. Or else, you might very possibly have to come back here and stay in bed.”

“I understand. Even if I go on stage, I’ll definitely control my arcane particles, because staying in bed here is really too boring!” Ayrin loudly promised.

Songat had fished a grilled sausage somewhere from one of his pockets and was nibbling on it while he casually asked with indifference, “Are Carter and you really planning to put him down in the fighting roster?”

“When you’re injured, the way to control your arcane particles and your own body when you fight, that’s also something he needs to learn.” Liszt offered a faint smile. “But Carter thinks that he might not have the opportunity to make an appearance anyway, even if we put him on the fighting sheet.”

“Are you guys so confident against Silver Trout?” Songat suddenly took on a stop-with-your-boasting expression. “Do you think we’re still in the era of your Evil Six?”

“You wanna bet?” Liszt smiled a lazy smile.

“Alright!” Songat’s eyes suddenly shone. “The one who loses invites the other to a Jungle Dancers show?”

Cana bristled as she shouted, “Can’t you pay attention? There’s still a woman here!”

“Ohoho…” A sudden strange smile came from Songat. “Cana, I thought a woman as pure as yourself shouldn’t even know who are the Jungle Dancers.”

“Bastard!” Cana itched to kick Songat flying.

Ayrin felt very curious. “Who are the Jungle Dancers?”

“Little kids shouldn’t ask too many questions!” Her face full of black lines, Cana bopped Ayrin’s head. “It’s a place only a lonely wretched middle-aged pervert like him would go.”

Just as Ayrin finished his physicals, ready to leave the Office’s infirmary so that he could go back to the Arena and meet up with team Holy Dawn for tomorrow’s match, a young woman was crossing a street not far away from the infirmary.

One side of this street was full of hotels with elegant landscapes, while on the other side were some novelty shops selling all sorts of odd and bizarre things.

This street with deep-purple roses planted on both sides seemed especially quiet and empty, because it was close to the time for the tournament to resume tomorrow,

This young woman wore a long, belted and skirted dress, a style trending in the area around Eichemalar. She also wore a pretty lace-bordered, wide-rimmed sunhat, and her hand even held a little flowery and ornamental umbrella with a handle made from green gems.

Her attire looked like a young noblewoman going to an appointed meeting with someone.

No one paid attention to this young woman. They couldn’t see her face, and her figure and clothes weren’t particularly breathtaking.

However, her footsteps slowly become heavier and heavier.

Under the wide brim of her hat, her eyes became more and more hazy, gradually turning totally blank like a wandering ghost that’d lost its will, making its way on the street in a stiff gait!

“Time’s up… Time’s up… Time’s up…”

From her mouth came a string of repeated words in a stiff and vague voice only she could hear.

If someone could notice her increasingly stiffer steps and see her face under the brim of her hat, they’d definitely be weirded out and frightened.

“Time’s up… Time’s up…”

Along with her repeated mumbles, white powder suddenly rustled down her face.

This white powder wasn’t some kind of cosmetics some young girls liked to wear, but fragments of skin falling from her face!

Her pretty face suddenly seemed extremely sinister as the skin flaked down. Her entire body suddenly twisted as well. Countless tiny bulges roamed nonstop under her skin, as though countless tiny bugs were about to crawl out of her.

Just then, a pale-white silhouette suddenly emerged from shadows not far behind her.

This figure seemed to have drilled its way out of the ground. From head to toe, it was covered in frightful pale-white particles.

“Puff!”

Countless pale-white particles suddenly sprayed outward, wrapping the young woman inside together with this silhouette.
