388 Trance (1/2)
Hobbek smiled and asked.
”Instead of making things complicated with several other cultivators and demon beasts in a chaos fight, why don't we make it simple? Let's go with single fights. I can fight you while Rania can fight Feifei. What do you think? We will use the deathmatch mode of any arena nearby. Winner takes all.”
Krune was already expecting something like this.
”We got a Heavenly Fragment on our side, wouldn't it be disadvantageous for one of you at least?”
Hobbek and Rania laughed.
”There is no need for you to worry. We are very confident in our own strength.”
In fact, Hobbek also knew what cultivation Krune and Feifei had because of the information about Mohie Zarks Inheritance. He thought that even with a Heavenly Fragment, both Krune and Feifei would still have lower cultivations than them. At most, the one who got a Heavenly Fragment would be closer, but that was all. He wasn't wrong, though. Krune and Feifei really have lower cultivations.
Krune couldn't help but ask.
”Wouldn't it be better for you two to fight together? Why would you offer single fights?”
Hobbek nodded.
”Of course, if you want a 2 vs. 2, we more than welcome you. But I thought that you would definitely refuse such odds; that's why I offered single fights.”
Krune started to ponder. His plans so far were to use the wisps to fight with a battle formation. Cinty had promised that the Soul Forging Realm wisps would help him when the time came. But now, he has a chance to finish everything without extra sacrifices. However, that might be, in fact, more dangerous than the initial plan. After all, deathmatch mode arenas will not allow one to leave unless one side is dead or the winner side allows the other to go.
It was then that Feifei said.
”2 vs. 2 it is then.”
Krune and Hobbek were taken aback.
It was then that Krune received a Divine Sense Message from Feifei.
”Did you forget? The information about us that is available on the Mission Hall only goes up to the battle against the Dragon Corpse. The things that happened in the last realm are nowhere to be found in their network. I doubt that Hobbek and Rania have the means to find the ones who entered that place either. Although they know that we might have something better to show, it wouldn't be much more than that. Simply put, that is the reason why they are underestimating us.”
Krune pondered a bit and had to admit that it was true. They had long since verified the information from the Mission Hall, so Krune knew that Feifei was correct.
”In that case, wouldn't it be better to have two single fights? I believe that their teamwork is nothing to be scoffed at.”
Feifei smiled and said.
”And since when our teamwork is bad?”
Krune couldn't help but laugh a little.
”Alright, I will follow your plan.”
”It is as she said, we would rather have a 2 vs. 2 battle. I believe you have nothing to complain about it, right?”
Hobbek and Rania found it weird for Krune to ask for this. However, it was true that they are even more confident if they fight together than alone. If they decide to step back in this situation, then everything they had gone through together would mean nothing.
”Sure thing! Let's select a city in some big planet. There is no way we can start a fight inside other than the arena as long as we are there. What about the Jionin City From the Heras Planet? It's quite close, and there is a long-distance teleport inside, so we can all teleport directly inside.”
Krune opened his communicator and looked for information about this city. Sure enough, it was a city just as Hobbek mentioned. In a place like that, breaking the city rules would only bring a calamity for either side.
”That's good enough. But I have a condition. Our battle has to be half a year later. During the last Mohie Zarks Inheritance, I suffered quite a serious injure in my Wisp Core, so it will take at least this amount of time for me to recover. I believe you have an idea about how it happened, though.”
Hobbek nodded.
”It can only be because of the other Heavenly Fragment Owner who died. Alright then, half a year it is. Still, there should be one more Heavenly Fragment Owner from our Luvile Universe, so what if we start to feel its presence as well?”
Krune shrugged his shoulders.
”I told you before, didn't I? Both me and Feifei don't want anything to do with you lot. So as long as he or she doesn't come to bother us, we won't go out of our way either. Whatever you do, that is up to you. We are going to do things our own way.”
Hobbek nodded and then finished the call.
There was a very simple reason why Rania and Hobbek didn't mind waiting for half a year. That is because they believe that their cultivation is faster than anyone else. So the more time passes, the better it will be for them. Not to mention that it would be a 2 vs. 2 battle, so they couldn't be more certain of their victory.
On Krune's side, he asked Feifei.
”Are you sure you don't want to simply go with the normal plan? I can still use Cinty's Soul Forging Realm wisps. Even if things go wrong, we can always escape back to the Wisp Main World in the end.”
Feifei shook her head.
