Chapter 400: Choose Your Destiny (1/2)
And after 30 minutes of comfortable pace, you've arrived at an elegant structure. The place was alive with people and it can be seen from their manner alone that these were no ordinary insects.
”Return from whence you came, mortal.” one of the guys forbade when he noticed your approach.
”I am also a witch.” you replied and rubbed the little nubbin on your finger.
”BOINK!” In a blink of an eye, a hazy smoke shrouded your form only to whisk the excess mist away a breath later. You were now garbed in the distinctive uniform of your school.
”I see. A newbie. Welcome, child. But please mind your words in there. Some people are just borne bitches if you know what i mean.” the guy winked at you and you nodded in understanding.
You entered the premises and saw the dashing postures of men and women alike.
Some ate and talked while others were silent on them distant corners with their drinks on hand, content on observing the flow of people around.
There were not only witches on the scene but also wizards with their white consecrated robes and staves. After a quick scan on the place, you saw the familiar figure of a woman.
It was the one you lost your 100 gold coins to.
Tell me what you want:
1. Approach the beautiful woman and strike a conversation.
2. Snatch her away from this building under all these ants' noses.
3. Listen to the rumors flying around.
4. Look for another noob witch or wizard like you.
The peoples around were busy with themselves and their peers. There was food and drinks in abundance. Pipe smokes were also present on the scene.
But since you cared not for these unnecessary things so you stood at a discreet corner to listen to the wiles of these ants.
”The event tomorrow would be great! I would not miss it for anything!”
”What's so good about it? I'm sure that gal Ev would take the prize as usual.”
”Perhaps. But you never know. I heard some of the lesser races would want to join in to petition a claim to their lands.”
”HAHAHA! They come to die then! It's more interesting to show these cretins where they truly belong.”
”Every year, their most talented individuals come here to compete. A pity really.”
”What's so pitiful about that? They never learn and that's the price they have to pay for their foolishness! They are born only to serve us! HAHAHA!”
”Enough of that. Should we gamble upstairs or wait for the auction later tonight?”
Tell me what you want:
1. Join on the event tomorrow and win it, with your identity hidden of course.
2. Gamble to lose some but win a whole lot more.
3. Wait for the auction and empty the house, hidden identity per usual.
