Chapter 188
The result of the battle was unexpected since no one would expect someone without a blessing would be able to win against an adventurer who received a blessing!
Everyone cheered loudly and excitedly.
While many of them couldn’t really tell how Tsukasa was able to defeat Hans, they could tell how strong he was.
On the other hand, Shakti thought to invite Tsukasa to her Familia after he came down from the arena. However, she could see he was still alright, and he didn’t plan to stop fighting, so she decided to wait.
Hans, who had lost, felt lonely since he had lost all of his glory. However, there was nothing he could do since he had lost. Instead, he hesitated for a moment before joining the audience group since he wanted to see his next match.
Hans was a dwarf, and like how a dwarf was, he was honest, so it was hard for him to follow Tsukasa’s way of thought, which was able to create an ingenious trap for him during their match instantly. While it might feel like he was a sore loser, no, he might be a sore loser since he wanted to see Tsukasa’s next opponent be beaten by him, too, so he wouldn’t be the most miserable loser.
“Do you need to rest?” The host asked Tsukasa.
“No, it’s alright. I can continue the match.”
The match was too short to satisfy him.
Tsukasa hadn’t been able to come out at all, feeling slightly bored. Still, he knew his next match would be interesting since he smelled a familiar smell that had been waiting in the passage.
Tsukasa could smell burning anger from that place, but he only showed a faint smile since he didn’t show much interest in this source of the smell. Instead, he was more interested in the smell of Amazoness that was staring at him. He glanced at them, and they stared at him. It was as if there was a spark of electricity between them. They could instantly tell what each other thought.
‘Later.’
The Amazoness group, who were already wet, also nodded subconsciously. They wanted to storm into the arena and kidnap him. They knew they couldn’t beat Shakti. However, it would be a different matter if Tsukasa came to them. They couldn’t handle it any longer now and shouted for his opponent to come out as soon as possible, so he could be beaten.
Shakti didn’t realize this, but she only stared at the group of Amazoness, and as long as they moved, she was ready to beat them up.
Right now, everyone thought differently since they had seen Tsukasa’s power. While he might have won by using tricks, this wasn’t something that one could simply imitate. It needed perfect control over one’s body and a sharp mind. They weren’t sure who his next opponent was, but if his opponent was only using his raw power like Hans, without a doubt, his fate wouldn’t be much different from Hans.
Hans, who sat down on the audience seat, felt insulted, but he didn’t say anything since he knew he couldn’t win against the group.
“Now, since Kugayama Tsukasa is ready for the next battle, let us welcome his next opponent! He’s a bear-human! Someone that is born with unlimited strength from his birth! Rocky! Please come out!”
The host excitedly announced that Tsukasa’s next opponent would appear.
However, when his opponent appeared, everyone was silent since his opponent was wearing a mask, and it might be their imagination, but they felt something suspicious about this man.
Tsukasa didn’t say much and only looked at this man with a faint smile.
“Why are you wearing a mask?” The host asked in doubt.
“Is there a rule that forbids me to wear a mask?” Rocky only snorted, but he didn’t look at the host. Instead, he stared at Tsukasa and couldn’t wait to kill him. However, someone wouldn’t let him do it so easily.
“Wait a moment, you’re Level 2, right?” Shakti, who had been watching the match, suddenly said. As the captain of the Ganesha Familia, she held a huge prestige among everyone, and in this arena, everyone followed her words. She could tell this man was Level 2, even if she didn’t have proof. However, even if it was just her assumption, she wouldn’t let Tsukasa be hurt.
“What? Do you doubt me? If you doubt me, why don’t you use the status thief on me?” Rocky snorted at Shakti.
A status thief is an item created to view someone’s status.
As long as one used the status thief, it was possible to see Rocky’s status.
However, Shakti was someone from the Ganesha Familia.
The Ganesha Familia was known for their kindness, and their God was also known as the God of the Masses.
It was also taboo to use such an item on the Orario.
In other words, they were all good guys, so when Shakti was provoked by Rocky, she couldn’t say anything and just gritted her teeth.
“It’s okay,” Tsukasa suddenly said.
“But…” Shakti looked at Tsukasa worriedly.
“It’s okay. I can defeat Polly easily,” Tsukasa said.
“My name is Rocky!”
“Dolly.”
“Rocky!”
“Dumbass?”
“I’ll kill you!” Rocky was full of anger.
Shakti sighed and knew the match couldn’t be stopped anymore, and she hoped Tsukasa would be alright since she wanted to invite him to her Familia. “Be careful.”
“Thanks.”
Tsukasa really thought Shakti was a good woman, but he could talk with her later since right now, he looked at Rocky and thought to just beat him, especially when he could clearly feel a killing intent from his smell. He frowned and felt annoyed.
‘Still a hammer, huh?’
Tsukasa rubbed his chin while observing Rocky. He could tell this guy was stronger than the dwarf he had fought before. He looked at his sword before looking at Rocky’s hammer. Without a doubt, he couldn’t meet with the hammer directly since his weapon could be destroyed. He also couldn’t use the similar trick he used on the dwarf, but it wasn’t that he really needed to resort to such a trick to defeat this demi-human.
‘But can he even wield it?’
Unlike the dwarf’s ax, the size of this guy’s hammer was bigger, which meant it was heavier, and wielding it around wouldn’t be easy.
However, Tsukasa didn’t really care since he just wanted to finish this match and go with the Amazoness group. He wondered whether they were as wild as he had imagined. Oh, he wasn’t interested in their bodies or anything. He just wanted to do deep research since it was his first time meeting such a race in his life. The exchange between the two races would lead to the development of the next generation, and it was his duty to do so.
Tsukasa and Rocky stood a few meters against each other and were ready to start their battle!
After hearing Shakti’s words, many people doubted whether Rocky was a Level 1 adventurer, but the battle couldn’t be stopped!
“Begin!”
Rocky charged like a wild beast and smashed the hammer toward Tsukasa with all his might!
*BOOOOOOOOM!*
