Chapter 228: A useless struggle! (1/2)

A young girl with a pair of wolf ears appeared in front of him. Like him, she too was wearing a flaxen-colored sleeveless shirt, paired with rusty-colored pants, and a pair of cheap-looking shoes.

Her carmen-colored twin-tail hair was slightly dancing as the slight wind caressed them.

However, unlike him, she was holding a short sword.

He wondered how she was able to summon such a sword in this world. He guessed that he skipped reading it in the manual. He didn't read the whole thing as it was too long and went to the most important indications.

Regardless, after materializing, the girl showed the same reaction as him-- puzzled and in awe of the place.

But when her eyes landed on him, they narrowed like the eyes of a hawk that wanted to devour its prey. Such as the eye of a predator.

”Are you my enemy?”

She asked as she pointed the tip of her sword to him. Her voice was, well, the voice of a person who was ready for a battle.

Yman scratched his face.

”W...Well, it wasn't hard to guess, right?” He replied with a wry smile.

He saw the girl squinted his eyes and directly posed in a ready to fight stan.

Her right hand was gripping the hilt of the sword beside her face, pointing the tip forward; Whereas, the left hand was straight in front of her.

He was wondering if she was a martial expert.

Yman, on the other hand, was empty-handed. Not only that, his trusted Deity wasn't on his side either. He had only his own at the moment.

Out of all this downside, he noticed a positive side. No restriction in this dimension! He could feel his power again. The management of this Virtual Arena probably wanted them to fight with their heart's contentment.

While his enemy was in fighting stan already; he, on the other hand, was standing still. He was a man without a style, after all.

However, all of the people in the Citadel had no idea about him. They were laughing and mocking him for being an idiot who did not buy a beginner's supply. They could buy weapons, armor, shields, and etcetera in the Citadel.

Each newbie had a starting point of 100. It was up to them how they spent it.

And yet, that newbie with the codename of The Mysterious was mysteriously dumb!

Hahaha!

They laughed while shaking their heads.

”Hey, what are you doing?!”

”Nothing, we are just watching the two cheerful newbies on their debut!”

”Really!? Hahaha!”

”Yeah! Come join up!”

”Pufft! Sure!”

Such a noisy audience in the Citadel, but all of them were Rankers. People started to gather just to laugh and make fun of the newbie's fight.

Some of them were thinking that they looked like them when they were on their first time as well.

Not far from them, one specific person was fixedly staring at the large monitor screen without being bothered by the noise coming from around him.

”Gilion!” Suddenly, someone called out to him.

Gilion didn't bother looking behind and just stared at the monitor. He was aware of the person who was calling him. But he disregarded it as the person he was waiting for had finally arrived in the Virtual Arena. He knew that one day he would meet him again.

A grin happened on his face as he muttered the word, ”finally.”

Finally, he could get his revenge on him sooner. Hehe.

”Yo' Gilion!”

Tap! Gilion felt a tag onn his shoulder.

”Prince Damian.”

Although Gilion didn't want to socialize with this person, he needed to show some respect. One of the reasons was because the other person was a prince of a kingdom.

”Fufu, I thought you were a statue.”

Damian laughed.

”.....”

Gilion didn't engage with his joke and remained silent.

Prince Damian, on the other hand, wasn't bothered by it. Gilion was known as the type of person who always had a face of seriousness.

Damian then noticed him staring at the monitor. He was staring at the exact person he wanted to watch.

”Do you know him?”

Gilio slightly frowned. ”Not quite. But that person wasn't someone you could look down.”

Prince Damian glanced at Gilion's face and saw he was serious. ”Oh, I see. That's interesting,” he said with a glint in his eyes but wearing a mocking smile on his face.

Gilion did not say further as his focus was now on the monitor as the fight had finally started.

Seeing the enemy empty-handed, Special Girl sneered at him. This enemy of hers seemed like a wimp, or maybe he was looking down on her.
