Chapter 490: Tricky

The Dragonmancer looked a little sad being disqualified. Despite splitting the risk between him and the Sage, he ended up with the short end of the straw.

Despite that, he didn't look too livid or angry at all. He looked at the Sage, then the Queen, then Rin, giving each a small smile.

A moment later, he left. 

Liam couldn't help but feel a pang of awe seeing the General effortlessly pass the round alone.

The man just… stood in his place, unyieldingly. 

'Did he know that they were hollow? Impossible. Even I didn't know, and I'm pretty sure Alucard didn't either.'

'He just left it to chance… and it worked. Respect.'

As the Dragonmancer left, the court changed shape once again to accommodate for the missing player. 

Five versus four.

Just the General, the Queen, Rin and the Sage remained on one side.

And on the other, was Spirit of Nature, Alucard, Eyes of Knowledge, Liam and the Adjudicator.
