Chapter 271 - Beast Taming Scroll.
The male spectators were shuddering in fear.
Out of instinct, they closed their legs.
Darkside knelt on the ground while grabbing his bleeding groin.
From his mouth, a trail of saliva dripped down.
''Ugh… ugh…'' From his mouth, the inaudible sound of grunts came.
Queen Diana turned her head towards the audience and saw many children looking at her with sparkling eyes.
She playfully winked.
The children cheered with joyful looks.
Their parents didn't know how to react; on the other hand, their fathers were pale in fright, but their mothers were clapping with approving nods.
In the waiting room.
''Ahem.'' Isaac averted his gaze from the arena.
League of Assassins had their jaws wide open, large enough to fit a baseball inside their mouth.
Deathsong kept biting his nails, ''Stand up… Stand up… Stand up…''
In the Arena.
Darkside raised his head and looked at the floating screen in front of him.
[HP: 1/441]
''Ugh…'' With shaky legs, he slowly stood up with a trail of blue blood dropping down to the dirt ground. He kept glaring at Queen Diana with dead-looking eyes.
''Interface…'' With a hateful gaze, he pressed [Log Out] and disappeared from World of White.
Queen Diana widened her eyes in surprise, ''He left…''
In the waiting room.
Deathsong slammed his head on the metal bars and screamed with a hoarse voice, ''Noooo!''
The League of Assassins lowered their heads with visible embarrassment on their faces.
Darkside's floating camera disappeared, leaving plenty of dissatisfied viewers behind, who were mocking him ruthlessly.
The members of Black Arrow could finally let out their frustration and cheered loud enough for every Player to hear them.
Isaac clapped his hands but remembered that it was his time to take the stage.
KnightOfHoliness innocently smiled at Isaac, showing a ruthless glint in his eyes.
In the Arena. After one of the competitors suddenly left, the beautiful gladiator rushed to the arena, ''Player Darkside had given up!''
Her sweet voice brought the spectators from their stupor.
*CHEERS!*
Queen Diana already became a favorite in the hearts of spectators, and seeing her winning made them very pleased.
She, however, felt dissatisfied.
'He had something else he didn't want to show…' She frowned and remembered that she had shown her Legacy.
Now, everyone will know her Legacy ability, and some who might harbor bad intentions could target her.
Meanwhile, Darkside seemed to hide something he didn't want to show.
Once in a while, he showed apparent tendencies to do everything to win the match, but a kick to the nuts made him wake up out from his enraged state.
The beautiful gladiator stopped next to her and said sweetly, ''It is time for Wheel of Victory!''
Everyone's attention was once again on the arena, or more precisely, on Queen Diana.
The holographic wheel appeared out of thin air.
She didn't overthink it and spun the wheel around.
At quickened speed, the wheel kept spinning until it started slowing down bit by bit.
Slowly but surely, the wheel stopped spinning, showing a color that hadn't been shown yet.
Brown.
The beautiful gladiator's sparkled as she announced what Queen Diana had won, ''Player Queen Diana's reward is… Beast Taming Scroll!''
''Eh?'' Queen Diana raised an eyebrow and was confused about the prize like many others.
''Beast Taming Scroll allows you to tame any Beast. Congratulations!'' She snapped her fingers, and out of nowhere, a brownish and worn-out scroll appeared out of thin air and landed on Queen Diana's soft palm.
''Beast Taming Scroll…'' Queen Diana murmured, and her eyes sparkled after realizing the possibilities it had.
She stored it inside her Inventory and was instantly teleported away from the arena.
The beautiful gladiator smiled and took notes from Queen Diana and winked at the audience, ''Next Challenger match will begin shortly!''
Inside the waiting room.
KnightOfHoliness stood up and did his final preparations.
Isaac was looking calm; however, inside his mind, he remembered the last time he fought against KnightOfHoliness.
He remembered his excellent usage of the sword.
KnightOfHoliness examined his steel sword and shield, ensuring that nothing was wrong with them.
''You know the plan, right?'' KnightOfProtection whispered.
''Yes,'' KnightOfHoliness replied and glanced at his Inventory, where ten Healing Potions were waiting for him!
A sickening grin was seen on his face, which he quickly hid.
''Don't show the Healing Potions until the very end.'' TomValeo said, ''His gun perhaps can deal 300 damage. Don't let him hit you instead, cover your body at all times.''
''No worries.'' He said while patting Tom's shoulder, ''I got this.''
TomValeo narrowed his eyes and whispered, ''You better…''
KnightOfHoliness stopped in front of the large wooden doors.
Below his feet, he felt the trembling coming from the loud spectators.
*Doom Dun Dun Doom Dun Dun*
The banging of the drums caused a sound loud enough to make tiny dust particles fall down from the rocky walls and ceilings.
At first glance, it would look like the Colosseum would fall apart if it continued, but the foundations were strong.
Strong enough to withstand the stress.
Isaac stood up from the bench; however, he felt an itching feeling on his nape when he was about to walk to the doors.
He scratched his itchy nape and turned around to see why the itchy feeling resurfaced.
It was his first time noticing people being looking at them like animals in the zoo.
Many of the noblemen and women were discussing with each other, but one person caught Isaac's eye.
A muscular man with a woolen tunic.
His face was shadowy, but Isaac could feel him smiling for an unknown reason.
''Hey, you two ready?'' The beautiful gladiator appeared from the door and asked. She noticed a handsome man with a heavy armory being ready, but the white-haired cutie was looking at somewhere else.
KnightOfHoliness turned his head and frowned, ''Wraith, did you get cold feet?''
Isaac shook his head, ''No, I am ready.'' He ignored the muscular man and walked next to KnightOfHoliness.
The beautiful gladiator smiled and nodded, ''I will announce you two, and when the doors open, you two may enter, is that clear?''
KnightOfHoliness and Isaac nodded.
