Chapter 218 Two months competition

While the old man was musing in his mind, he met Kyle’s gaze.

Kyle tilted his head. A cold glint flashed through his eyes and the old man was stunned when he felt goosebumps standing behind his back.

‘What the..?’

Under his stunned gaze, Serena stepped back and looked at Kyle.

“Kid, I have completed all the legal procedures. Now you are free to do anything in the event. If possible, just win the event because it was the first time Han begged me for something.”

She chuckled at the end. Han was always nonchalant and never listened to her but now she would take her sweet time with him until he repaid this ‘favor’ she had done for him.

‘I will just torture him a little. Hmm, no he is turning old so I will do something else…’

Kyle’s eyes sparkled a little. After the bloodline awakening his body was aching for a proper battle. At first, he thought he had to be careful in the event because he was not in his home ground. However, after listening to the old man’s words he knew Serena had truly settled everything for him. The Queen was involved which means under Serena’s eyes no one will touch him.

He blinked his eyes and asked innocently.

“Can I really do anything in the event?”

Serena’s face was devoid of emotions but she was engrossed in her thoughts that’s why she didn’t focus on Kyle’s question and just nodded her head.

“Do whatever you want.”

Kyle’s lips ticked upward slightly. His eyes glisten with a sharp hazel color and the only person who noticed this sharp glint was the old man standing beside Serena.

The old man’s breath hitched. He looked back and forth at Serena and Kyle. One was busy thinking about something with a serious face while the other was rubbing his hand in anticipation.

‘What had the world turned into? Why am I getting scared because of his eyes?’ ƒreewebɳovel.com

The old man hurriedly shook his head and left the strange duo alone, immediately forgetting the matter of how he wanted to keep an eye on Kyle.

On the other hand, Serena suddenly snapped out of her thoughts and looked at Kyle.

“Ah… Kid, I recalled I didn’t give you a weapon. What type of weapon do you use?”

Kyle’s eyebrows twitched. So the mana stones she gave him weren’t for him to buy a weapon?

Serena grinned when she saw Kyle’s sour face.

“Don’t tell me you bought a low-rank weapon with the 200 mana stones I gave you?”

Kyle proceeded to stay quiet. In this type of situation, it was better for him to stay as quiet as possible.

Serena laughed out loud for the first time when Kyle evaded her eyes.

‘Damn it! She didn’t tell me the mana stones were only for me to buy clothes and other necessary things.’

Kyle grumbled inwardly but then Serena took out some weapons from her storage ring and showed it to Kyle.

“Here, pick one. All these weapons are very powerful.”

Kyle nodded and scanned the many weapons eagerly searching for a sword. Alas, his efforts were futile because Serena had all kinds of weapons, shields, spears, sabers, bows, chains…the only thing her collection lacked was a ‘sword’.

Kyle looked at Serena’s face.

“Do you have a Sword?”

Serena blinked and thought for a while.

“Ah, I had one in the past but it was too old so I threw it away. I am a saber user so I mostly have sabers. Don’t tell me you are a sword user?”

Kyle nodded with a grim face. It seemed he was not destined to hold a sword for a while.

“It’s okay. I will just take one of the sabers.”

He picked up a saber from the weapons and within a second the saber disappeared from his hand.

Serena narrowed her eyes. There wasn’t any storage ring on Kyle’s hand so where did the saber go?

Her thoughts were disturbed by the sudden loud sound resounded in the dom. She looked above at the floating figure and patted Kyle’s shoulder.

“All the best.”

She left Kyle with the crowd and started walking, heading straight toward some individuals sitting at the end of the circular platform.

Kyle nodded at her fading back and entered the crowd. The floating elf woman appeared above them. Her eyes were sharp as she gazed at the individual standing below her.

She clapped her hands and a thunderous sound appeared in the dom.

“I don’t think I need to further tell everyone regarding the purpose of this event. We are here to find capable and talented individuals who would be trained under the King.”

“I hope you all do your best. There will be only one competition in this event. The competition will continue for two months and I believe before coming here you all would have filled your storage rings with all the necessary things you need.”

“Within a few minutes, all of you will be teleported to a place filled with various types of monsters. Moreover, you will be getting nothing, no tokens, no safety artifacts, no protective shields. The only thing you need to do is kill the monsters.”

“The killed monster would then be calculated through an artifact and you will get points according to the strength of the monsters you killed. The more points you get the higher your ranking would be among all the other participants.”

The floating woman stopped for a second.

“Remember, we won’t save you if you are in a dangerous situation because there are too many individuals participating in this event. However, when you are near death the place you are teleporting to will eject you automatically. We have the best healers team here to save your life but I can’t guarantee that your arms and legs will stay intact.”

There was silence for a few seconds. The individuals standing below the floating woman tensed a little but she didn’t stop.

“Lastly, I would appreciate it if you didn’t fight with each other. It’s not forbidden but hurting each other won’t give you anything. No points, nothing. So, it’s better if everyone focuses on killing monsters. You can make teams but the points will be equally distributed to all the team members according to their contributions.”

The floating woman turned quiet. She gazed at the platform and waved her hand.

“Be ready. I am activating the Array.”

The green particles floating in the dom traveled in an instant and started gathering around the platform.

Regius gazed at the particles and looked back at his team members. He patted Izil’s shoulder and then looked at the four juniors with grim expressions.

“Lumi, Yue, Faith, Niamh. Remember you are forbidden to roam around alone. I don’t know how you managed to get permission from your overprotective families to enter the event but after teleporting from this place find me as soon as possible. Used the tracking artifact the Professor gave us because I don’t want any incidents. Alright?”

After seeing them nod, Regius turned around with a smile.

On the other hand, Kyle looked at the Array beneath his feet with a smirk.

‘I wonder if the people outside would be able to see the participants fight in the competition space?’

He mused but then his gaze landed at a familiar group of purple-shirt elves. Among so many individuals his eyes narrowed on a hand wearing a familiar procelien bracelet.

‘That?’

Kyle gazed above at the bracelet owner’s back and he blinked. Long honey-color hair tied up in a ponytail.

‘Oh, it’s her. I should…’

Kyle’s words were cut short because, in the next second, his vision turned bright. The particles danced around his body and he disappeared from the platform along with all the other participants standing on the platform.
