Chapter 462 - The quarter finals (2/2)

When the two entered the stage, and the match had started, Jones put his spear down on the floor immaturity.

”I forfeit from the match,” Jones said. Like that Sera was through to the semi-finals.

Jones was no fool, and none of the other contestants could blame him for quitting. All of them had respect for human life. They would try to knock out or get the other person to give up before resorting to killing them. But Sera was different, he would look for the kill immediately.

Although Jones was old, he wanted to live the rest of his years happily.

'I'm not a worthy opponent for you anyway' Jones thought as he looked at Ray.

These two monsters were the ones who should be fighting.

The announcer over onto the next fight calling out the next two names.

”A fight between Savana and Ray.”

The two entered the stage, and just like with the last game, Savana didn't draw her daggers and lifted her hand. Declaring she would forfeit for the day.

Because this had happened twice in a row now, people from the crowd started to boo. They came here wanting to see a fight and the only thing they had seen was a five second match, and two people forfeit, and that was the end of the day.

There were no more matches, the rest were scheduled for tomorrow.

A brief pause was made, the day for the arena had ended far earlier than they had anticipated and people had paid money to watch the event. The organisers felt like they needed to do something to fill up at least sometime, so a suggestion was made and they were waiting to see if the last person who had yet to fight was willing to participate in their plan.

Fourtnutley, the participant had said yes. Onto the field the last person, the female crossbow user had entered waving her hand. This meant that she would be fighting today, but there was no opponent standing opposite her.

”Everyone please give this warrior your cheers for she has agreed to fight a king tier beast for your entertainment!” The announcer said.

The crowd cheered and were delighted about this.

She placed her bolt in her crossbow and was ready. The gate built into the side of the arena wall was opened, along with the lure to allow the beats to come onto the stage. She waited patiently for what was to come out of that large tunnel.

A minute had passed, and it seemed like the beast had yet to meet the arena, everyone was waiting in anticipation.

”Aww. Grgg.” Slyvia started to m.o.a.n out. She placed her hand on her eye patch and went on her knees.

”Slyvia, what's wrong, is it the shadow?” Martha asked.

”He's coming, someone is coming…” Slyvia said.

Finally, it looked like a figure could be seen walking out from the tunnel, but it was a human shape of all things. Humanoid beasts existed, but at the king tier level, they were very rare. When it finally stepped out into the light, its full body could be seen.

It looked like that of an ant but was standing on two human-like feet, while its many limbs were at the side of its body. And worse of all, a strange shadow was surrounding it.

”Isn't that what we saw at the research facility!” Roy shouted.

The beast that was beyond a king tier, infected by the shadow., An infected emperor tier, which would bring it up to the next level.

Ray seeing the beast, didn't know what to do, was this planned by the Emperor, were they in control of it?

”What is that?” Alexander asked, not recognising it as the beast that was planned for the event.

”We aren't sure, sir.” Another one replied.

A blink, a single blink was all it took, for them to miss what had happened, but a human had been left rolling on the floor. One of the contestants for the all kingdom tournament was dead.
