Chapter 53 (2/2)

This was because no matter the opponent in the preliminary rounds, not one of them could face Ly before they dropped out

The users’ interest towards Ly increased rapidly, and Ian, anted to beco a celebrity without hi about it

Lucia and Hines, who relayed the preliue for a quarter of the day, were conversing as they took a short break

“Hines, don’t you think this rookie league is truly the best? Especially the Su, I think they’re truly a”

At Lucia’s words, Hines nodded his head

“I also think that way It looked like those two users raised the some sort of special method”

“That’s right Their characters looked special, and their control level is unbelievable”

Hines, who lifted his water bottle and slightly quenched his thirst, slowly continued speaking again

“But Lucia, there’s soo”

“Huh? What do you mean bother you?”

Hines slightly knitted his brows together as if he was thinking of so as he spoke

“You know that Summoner user Ian”

“Yes”

“I think I’ve met him before somewhere”

At those words, Lucia’s eyes slightly rounded

“Huh? Really? Where did you see him?”

“I feel like I’ve definitely seen that red wolf somewhere…”

Hines, who ht about it, finally clapped his hands

“Ah, right I remember now!”

Lucia waited for Hines’ next words with a curious expression

“I went to the Abysician’s quest There was a Suiant red wolf, and I’m positive that person was him!”

Hines assured himself as he spoke

‘That’s right, I’ht that Ice Golem he used in the match at Abysmal Island’

He didn’t know the identity of the strange turtle(?) he carried on his back, but as he uess that it was him back then

“Ooh, I see”

Lucia had on an expression saying it was cool, but that was it

Truthfully, it wasn’t like he was acquainted with Ian, and just having seen hi to fuss over

And rather, she thought it was a relief

This was because Lucia was secretly planning on snatching a contract with Ian herself

In the case that Hines was acquainted with Ian, she would be losing a chance to raise her performance

‘When the arena schedule is over, I have to go approach him’

Because the top-ranking Summoner ‘Loren’ that she tried to contact last time was acquainted with Hines, she had lost Loren to hi Ian

However, Hines had a secret plan of his own

‘Since his impression looked really nice back then… I should be able to approach him a little easier if I say that I was the user that rode the boat with him then’

Hines, whoseof the bonus he would receive after clinching a contract with Ian, grinned as he stood up to relay the next match

“Huehue, Huehuehuet”

Ian, on 5 matches with a perfect score one after another, passed the preliant expression as he sat in the corner of the stands

There were quite a lot of people that now recognized him after the preliminary rounds, but no one could bother Ian

This was because the place that Ian was sitting at was the battalion sector, where only people who have passed the preliminary rounds could come into

Because even Li towards complete victory like Ian, had only finished four of his listedroom

“Will there be no capable person that can block , hoho”

He already originally had strong self-pride in his own ga skills, but as he hadn’t met a worthy opponent in the preliher

‘It looks like the 100,000 Fa to me On top of that, they’ll all be Heroic-rank!’

Once he received the first-place reward of the rookie league, an easy journey towards level-grinding would be opened

A happy feeling ca it

While Ian grinned and happily iue came to an end, and lastly, 64 users re room

Only a couple users that appeared to already be acquainted with each other were quietly conversing with each other, while the rest waited for the list of matches to appear with nervous expressions

‘Even if they were progressed with 50 matches at once… Did less users participate than predicted? Or is it because it’s the rookie league If all goes well, it looks like we could finish all the matches in a day’

Just like Ian thought, there was the fault that only a few participated in the rookie league, but because the arena generally had a merciless rule that eliminated you even with one loss, the users were filtered out faster than expected

‘It’s better for ht away tomorrow’

As Ian was expecting to have to continuously stay at the arena for 2-3 days without leveling, he really liked the forwarded schedule

While Ian thought of this and that, the arena’s schedule was progressing incredibly fast

The list ofpopped with lightning, and shortly after, all of the ressed

And Ian looked at the opponent in front of him

‘Huh, what is this Archer? I feel like I’ve seen him before somewhere…’

The opponent was glaring at hi him

And Ian was able to figure out who he was shortly after

‘Ah… It’s that Goblin Chief Priest PK bum!’
