Volume 7 Chapter 4 (1/2)
Chapter 4: The Messenger and the Bracelet
Atlantis 9:46 AM
“The match resumes!”
The sounds around me had completely disappeared, and all I could see was the array beneath e in its course
“The ice and fla Spear, indeed lives up to its fame” The opponent that caht line and then he took out a straight blade that rese tiǎozhàn zhě jiēshòu nǐ de xuèxǐ”
[T/N: The one who signed a contract with er to receive your bloodbath]
That blade was bright red, like blood
“Blade of Blood, Chief of Kings” Mohander curved into a smile then stopped a few steps away from Senior
The opposing purple robe was the sae array as well
I had a feeling that I’ to die
“The Royal Weapons’ Blade of Blood, has been well known for ages” Glancing at the opponent’s blood blade, Senior was still coldly s
The surrounding temperature seemed to have started to drop I swear, this ti was already rising up froe instantly became a vast expanse of white
A second later, the white fog turned blood red I could vaguely see the water below turning blood red as well, very eerie
“Chief of Kings, renowned as a blade of cala, Senior opened his hand to let it dissipate “One of the seven great calamities, the weapon of blood”
“That’s right”
In the blink of an eye, Mohander had already appeared behind Senior Spinning his blade, he aiive up your life!”
That speed was already one where I couldn’t see anything at all
Quickly dodging that, Senior took less than half a second to reappear on the shrine’s staircase Red sheet ice i “Thunder” He stretched out two fingers in front of hi suddenly released a loud crack before racing down and directly striking the blood red water
Large ripples appeared on the surface of the water, then started to emit smoke
A pained voice cainally disappeared, fell off from the water’s surface Less than half a second had passed and he had pro his toes to the water, he then rose back into the air
Watching this scene beforeAren’t these arrays beneath me and the opponent, supposed to prevent the opponent fro any spells? So why is Senior able to use the purple lightning?
“Chu! Behind you!” Senior, as standing before the shrine, suddenly looked back By the time I realized it, the silver spear in his hands was already casting towards raze bypast me
A heavy “dong” sounded out I turned around, just in tih an unknown black fish creatureAsit heavily fell back, enormous red splashes appeared on the surface of the water I froze for a moment then unconsciously went back a step, until I remembered that I wasn’t supposed to move around on this array By then, it was already too late
The faint glow fro from the outermost, countless symbols and totems crumbled and fell as if they were crushed into powder
Fro on the black fish floating on the water, a dark purple shadow leaped high up and landed right in front of e teleportation array
Tis seem like it was in slow motion I could only watch on helplessly as that purple robe ca needles appearing within his hands
I saw hi Then as if ere suddenly connected through a phone line, his voice softly, very softly, rang out besideBishen wants…”
“Chu!”
An extremely familiar yell woke me up with a start I took a step back but that part of the array had already cruht off and fall into the blood red water The h the water, I felt like I nearly suffocated The surroundings were very quiet, so quiet that it’s like nothing exists I slowly sank down but couldn’t touch the bottom
There was a black thing like a soft cloth that gradually unfolded itself before my eyes
Then in that blurry state, a face strangely appeared but it seems very familiar
Do you want to be saved?
That face asked me then lowered its blurry black hands
I want to, of course I want to Being surrounded by this silence is so terrifying It’s as if this place never had any living things before, and that not even I seem to be alive Thus, I reached out
In that saed up by force Above the water, I could immediately hear the clamor as well as uproar of the audience
I coughed and spat out the water I sed My wholeme throw up
Honestly, right now I have an overwhel desire for this damn bloody water to return back to normal It’s so stinky, so incredibly stinky, that it’s simply unbearable!
“Take a look ladies and gentle forced back!”
The announcer’s voice was suddenly relayed over A huge uproar instantly rose up around us Following those voices, I mechanically lowered my head to look Just now, the fine powder that had broken off froht, like stars underwater, as they rapidly expanded Then, the color of the blood red water retreated and its original deep blue look was restored
A wave directly hit me on my head
I heard a fine bell-like sound, but before I could carefully listen to find where it came froain reappeared in front of me
“Not bad, but just where can you flee to this time?” He stood in ht soosebumps
I secretly peeked at the movements in the shrine, where Senior and that black robe were currently fighting each other After losing his weapon, it became a bit harder for Senior to cope I suppose it’ll be rather difficult for him to immediately rush over to my side
Looks like this time I’ll die for certain
The purple robed Tenju slowly pulled out long, thin silver needles, “Don’t worry, you only need to obediently sleep until the General assembly ends…”
In that second, I thought of how just now under the water, I had held onto that blurry black hand that seems to be there and yet not there
The surrounding water suddenly exploded, just like the scene in the e sea ed upwards and abruptly swept over, causing entire waves to violently surge Tenju, as originally in front of ure could hit him, he had already jumped clear of it
Drops of water fell on
Then I saw that beneath the water, was a blurry black face with only yellow eyes that continuously turned After that, it turned coht beneath where I was floating
That face was very fao…
“Chu! Hurry up and come up!” Senior’s voice almost sounded like he was close by I came to my senses just in time to notice that the waves had washed me up not too far away froht in front of me, I immediately scrambled on all fours up the stairs of the shrine
After reaching the top, I truly felt that the shrine was even bigger than when I’d seen it froate was already three stories high, not to mention the white stone statue inside The entire shrine was high enough to reach the sky The snake-bodied wo, its lifelike snake scales faintly glowing from the reflection of the waves
Senior suddenly appeared in front of ed , the opposing black robe appeared within the shrine at almost the same time
The scarlet blood blade sliced down between us Senior was one step faster and pushedthe strength froate, juates that was heavily kicked,sound and then bounced backwards It hit the wall and after that, bounced right back again, directly getting stuck in the entrance with a “peng” sound
Uh…regardless of whichever God is being worshi+pped here, sorry to bother you, but if there’s any divine retribution and the like, please don’t look for me, thank you
“Looks like it’s rather difficult for your school’s black robe to take you into account” Tenju, as endlessly pestering ain appeared before me He leisurely brushed off the drops of water on his clothes, and sloalked step by step into the shrine “Clear Wind Acadeuess it won’t take long before he’s defeated After all, your Senior still has yet to seriously fight with him”
Senior wasn’t being serious?
Nn, actually I also see It’s just that I didn’t dare to say it so blatantly ou loud
Tenju snapped his fingers and I suddenly couldn’t hear the sounds of the audience outside The surroundings quieted down, except for those two that were still having a heated standoff up on the bea that we say will be transmitted outside” He narrowed his eyes and curved into a cold smile “Now it’s better, I’ve already placed down a third basic barrier, so we can have a relaxing little chat”
He crossed his aruess he wouldn’t be able to aveso I still took a few steps back to increase the distance between us and to express my peace of mind
“Youfor If you cooperate a little, I wouldn’t hurt you, I’ll simply let you sleep for a bit After the General assembly, I’ll let you wake up tothat h the main point
“What master?” I was stunned, unable to understand what he had just said Isn’t he a representative player of Clear Wind Academy? Why would he still have some kind of master?
“You’ll know once you see him” He said the most useless sentence ever And I would also like to tell him, it’s very likely that I still wouldn’t knoho he is even after I meet him
“You…” Just as Tenju seeolden stream of fire si into the ground between us, it didn’t take long for the flames to immediately burn wildly
