Icy expression? Check!
Blood Tiara? Check!
Hairstyle? Check!
Clothes? Check!
All checked! Wahaha, everything’s perfect and in place! After a short three second deliberation, I’d decided to use the “icy bad boy” strategy, as per usual After all, isn’t it widely known that girls dig bad boys?
I looked at Gui and thought, Not bad, not bad at all! Under my coercion, (Weird; when I threatened to beat him up, he refused to cooperate, but when I threatened not to beat hireed… Is he a masochist?) he too adopted the attitude of an aloof bad boy — and he seemed to be even better at it than I was!
So handso off the two hearts that had replaced my eyes, and resumed my cold and impassive appearance
“Let’s go, Gui” I walked out into the arena at a stately pace, looking like the epitome of style
“hello everyone, I a froht now is Tea of four elf warriors, a holy teaed to stand against their attacks,” reported Xiao Li excitedly “These six beautiful o wild — just listen to theot quite a few supporters here in their home city!
“And coht is…” Xiao Li’s voice trailed off as he flipped through his log book, his heart skipping a beat at the unusual name Odd Squad? If I remember correctly, their team members are…
As Gui and I stepped out of the tunnel and into the arena, the crowd’s cheers gradually subsided into a dead silence as their gazes slowly caave the other teah he didn’t see the our opponents I, on the other hand, tilted ave Tea a fight with them
“And here we have Odd Squad! Their team consists of an elf warrior, an elf thief, a beastel necroe With their unique teaies and tactics, they have been the victors in every match until now,” Xiao Li announced However, as a commentator, he was clearly aware that what the spectators really wanted to knoas…
“The only warrior in Odd Squad, Prince, has been dubbed by many as the ‘Blood Elf’ due to his cold-blooded andstyle Of course, even eous Prince’! In addition, there is also another, equally rare, beautiful man on their team: Guiliastes, whose devilish and unearthly beauty has also earned its share of attention In Odd Squad’s hoained reputations as “extreuys”… In any case, ladies, you’re in for some serious eye candy!”
“What is he, a coon murmured to herself
“Aiyah! It’d be great if this really were a beauty pageant; then ouldn’t have to put so e as the chaht away,” Yu Lian-dàsăo said confidently
Lolidragon and I looked suspiciously at Yu Lian-dàsăo Has her extraordinary sense of beauty been cured?
Yu Lian looked lovingly at her husband, Ugly Wolf “With Wolf here, ould definitely win”
…Nope, not cured yet
“Dàgē, they have four warriors How are we going to fight they for this round?”
On the surface, my expression re Wolf-dàgē The four warriors across from me were so furious that their faces looked awfully twisted I suspected that there was a high possibility that the instant the referee shouted “Begin!”, they would co directly at me to skinpieces of human sashi+mi!
“Hmm… This’ll be a bit tricky This teah their teaainst monsters, it works pretty well in this tournament The best method now is for you and Doll to stall them and then have Yu Lian cast a powerful spell to finish theē paused and considered the situation for a on, your job is to assassinate their on”
“Stall four warriors?” I laughed weakly and put on ē, don’t you think that you’re overesti my ability? Even Superman faces only one adversary per episode!”
Wolf-dàgē replied calmly, “Unfortunately, you’re not Superman, so you’ll have to handle four ene, youa level, then all the better”
Waaah! How heartless! I thought, ned myself to an conte which technique to use in this situation Ah! I suddenly recollected that Meatbun had a move that seemed quite appropriate for this sort of situation
“Haha, why are you taking out a bun here in the arena? Don’t tell ht? That’s right, eat up! You don’t look like you weigh et bloay!” the elf warrior standing at the very front jeered while looking contemptuously at Meatbun
“That meat bun has eyes Don’t tell me it’s a pet? A pet bun? Ahahahaha!” The elf warriors opposite hter
“Let me show you what a real pet is like!” said the holye above his head, unfurling into…
“A fire phoenix?” Wolf-dàgē exclai it
“It’s so beautiful!” Doll cried out in admiration
“This is bad; the odds are heavily stacked against us in this situation,” Wolf-dàgē said worriedly As should be expected of Wolf-dàgē, to be able to iin analyzing the situation, I thought “Yu Lian specializes in fire ic, so it’ll be futile for her to attack the fire phoenix Doll’s skeletons will be occupied with stalling the warriors This ht…”
As soon as he said those words, we turned and looked at Meatbun, as bouncing excitedly on“Whee! Whee!”We then lifted our heads and looked at the fire phoenix soaring majestically in the sky
“The odds are definitely against us,” I remarked
“Battle, begin!” shouted the referee
What? It’s already begun? I haven’t thought of a way for a meat bun to defeat a fire phoenix yet! …Never mind, I doubt I’ll be able to come up with a way in this lifetime anyway
“Meatbun, Machine Gun Meat Attack,” I ordered Holding Meatbun in my left hand, I fired continuously at the four warriors, sweeping froe froh, the hits were still painful, plus…
“My God, what is this? It’s so sticky and gross!”
As expected, the opposing teaan to wail and co-blood Machine Gun Meat Attack, with a grossness level that’s beyond the tolerance of a person who has not cooked before
“Fire Phoenix, stop thatteam hurriedly ordered the phoenix forward in order to aid the warriors on the frontline
A surge of fla Meatbun’s meat bullets Instantaneously a delicious sht, The raw meat from Meatbun has been roasted…?
I caught a piece, and with some skepticism, I ate it… and was duly astonished It’s sooooo delicious! God, why did you let me eat such delicious roasted meat? What will I do if I never have the opportunity to taste it again?
“Unbelievable! If we add a fire phoenix toany meat to eat in the future,” I said Then I s ly at the priest of the opposing team and said, “Hey, you, owner of the fire phoenix! Let’s make a bet, a bet on which team in this match!”
Teaan guffawing
With so and said in a tone of ut a meat bun to beat a fire phoenix?”
I didn’t answer and ly at him
As I expected, there wasn’t any guy alive would could stay caled, the priest snapped, “Fine What are the stakes?”
“Your fire phoenix – if Teaive us your fire phoenix If Odd Squad loses, I’ll coain until I hit level one”
The priest s froain”
“Prince, aren’t you acting too rashly?” Lolidragon asked concernedly over the team channel
I didn’t answer right away Instead, I tossed some roasted meat to each of my teammates They looked dazedly at the roastedlooksFinally, with soon took a bite of the roasted meat…
“Ahhh, it’s just too delicious! My God, I’ve never eaten such heavenly roasted ether with the searing heat of the fire phoenix’s fla a tender roast that’s been cooked to perfection, with every bite filled with such goodness… It’s definitely a delicacy that can’t be created using ordinary meat and an ordinary oven It’s so divine that I’m ative hundredth level, you have to find a way to get that fire phoenix, you hear on roared
“ROAR! Even if I have to kick theē bellowed
“We can save lots on food money!” Yu Lian-dàsăo’s s face ay
“Undead creature bone dragon from the remotest depths of hell, abandon your slumber and answer the call of the necromancer, Doll Come and help Doll snatch roastedthe roastedundead creature – an undead bone dragon – which she had originally refused to ever suain
“If Prince wants so whatever ain
All six rins, all the while , “I want to eat roasted meat” and “Fire Phoenix is ours”
“W-why do t-they suddenly seem so fired up?” the priest stammered His face was pale as a sheet as he looked at the six hungry wolves in front of him
“N-no worries; even if they have a bone dragon, it’s no problem Fire Phoenix is the nemesis of all undead creatures,” one of the warriors said shakily, atte to reassure his teammates
“Gui- Berserk! Doll- the bone dragon, over here,” I shouted
“Got it Berserk Melody” Gui began to play, casting Berserk Melody on Lolidragon and I, increasing our strength and agility to 150 The buff would last for ten minutes
“Bone dragon, go!” Not a trace of fear could be seen in Doll’s demeanor as she calmly directed the undead creature
I leapt onto the bone dragon and we charged at the elf warriors directly in front of us At the sa towards us under its owner’s orders, and it looked as though ere about to crash Hmph!, I sneered coldly Don’t assume that ainst a fire phoenix, but… Heh heh! “Ensnaring” it is a simple matter
“Meatbun, use QQ Dough Wrap and bind Fire Phoenix,” I said, throwing the an to stretch like soft dough and pinned itself to the fire phoenix’s wings The fire phoenix gave a loud wail and plu furiously
Without any on and I were about to crash into the four pale-faced elf warriors Just then, the ene the spell for a barrier, catching the bone dragon and I off guard We slae
I pressed on, ignoring the pain, and asked Doll to her, over the barrier However, just when I planned to attack, the eneical projectiles at usto i the projectiles while keeping an eye on the four warriors, e’s barrier
After a few minutes of this impasse…
“Urgh!” The holyer sticking out of his chest He quickly turned into a pillar of white light and flew off while Lolidragon gave an evil chuckle fro Then, before the warriors in front even sensed her presence, she used her Burrowing skill again to get back to where the rest of Odd Squad was
The end was in sight
“Hahahahaha!” Perched atop the bone dragon, I laughed irls into a dead faint, unable to take the sight anymore
“…Meteor Shower,” Yu Lian-dàsăo recited the last line of the spell with a smile and instantaneously nearly a dozenonto the arena floor with earth-shaking boo only a warrior – the one who had laughed at Meatbun – collapsed on the ground
As per usual, I maintained the air of a conqueror as I hopped off the bone dragon For a moment I stared at my opponent, a h his weak and unresisting body, sending him to the rebirth point to relive his life as an elf
“Odd Squad, victory!” The judge shouted a line that I had heard seven times before
After that, I picked my invincible Meatbun up from the floor
<system notice:=”” meatbun=”” has=”” reached=”” level=”” 40,=”” meatbun=”” has=”” learned=”” a=”” new=”” ability:=”” roasted=”” meatbun=””>
We successfully received the fire phoenix, which had reverted to the fores hands, the pet will revert to the forain, be deh it has died once, and its loyalty will decrease to 50/100) We then began discussing who the fire phoenix should be given to
“First, take Doll and me off the list I already have Meatbun, and Doll can su,” I said after soht
“Mm, I don’t need it either I don’t believe that I need a pet to protecthis impressive muscles
“Neither do I; Wolf will protect ē stared at each other ardently
“I don’t want it I can’t rear pets…”
I recollected Lolidragon’s bloody, tear–filled history with pets Thata new record by killing an i yet another chapter to that bloody history
“So we’re left with…Gui?”
“Me? Yay, then I can roast hness!” Anticipation ritten all over Gui’s face
“It’s roasting meat with Meat-bunbun!”
The whole of Odd Squad laughed long and loud
“Oh, coot to reward Gui as well! Roasting ē said, patting me on the back heartily
“Huh? I wasn’t the one who said that!” I replied
However, I found , Did I really not say that…?
“That voice was so adorable, so it was probably Doll who said it, right?” Lolidragon guessed
“Eh?” Doll raised her s it impossible for her to speak
Then who on earth was it?
