Capítulo 53: Sean Vs Hayden! Game Of Wits!
The first fight of the top 8 has been announced. The draw was decided to be between Squad Silence and Squad Fighters...I see on the television. Bruno whose in the audience seems to be quite concerned about things. I would be too, the game is between Squad Fighter...This isn't your normal daily walk in the park type of match.
The teams stand in front of each other. The spin counter for the round selector begins to spin round and round until it stops on, 'Chess Of War'...Chess? I know what chess is but that naming is quite a different one. Chess of war? What would that mean? The questions popped in my head but the announcer explains the rules. So in chess of war, everyone except the leader participates for a fight. It basically means, the leader has to act like an intelligent commander rather then fight with the team and command. I understand what they are doing here. Sometimes when your squad is away from you, you need to command them from far away for various situation but for someone like Sean...This will be more of a battle of wits rather then a battle of strength. I hope he can command his team correctly.
19 players have lined up to fight up against the oppositions 19 players. Good luck Sean. "GO!" The game begins. If I am correct, all Sean needs to get is 1 single hit on them and it will be all good. Sean commands one of his people standing in the front to attack the the middle of Fighters group while the others flank Squad Fighters. His taking the aggressive approach to this fight.
Any other day, taking an aggressive approach would have been a huge success in Sean's hand but today...His taken the wrong turn. In a blink of an eye, the whole Squad Silence got slaughtered...All we could do was watch from the distance as they get slaughtered by Squad Fighters and the win went to Squad Fighters within a glimpse of a second. I sigh. "After watching this match, is anyone afraid to fight them?" I ask everyone. Everyone looks at me with their determined eyes. None of them...Not even the little scaredy cat Hister is afraid. I smirk. Jacob puts his fist in front of me. "We will win this tournament, remember, we promised that we would win this tournament way back you got us a chance to become an official squad. That's why, I...No we will never back down!" Jacob's words were truthful...His eyes shined with determination. His determination...Not only his but everyone's, even Brenna and Damien...They are shining with the words, 'WE WILL WIN THIS NO MATTER WHAT' I smile. "Guess then, I was worried for no reason." I say and meet my fist with Jacob and smile.
I move out of the room to get some fresh air while the cards were being drawn out for the next fight. I look at Sean who stands right outside our locker room. "Hey..." I call out Sean. "Hey..." Sean gives a smile. It's an unsatisfied smile tho. I put my fist on Sean's chest. "You know, you did nothing wrong." I say to him. "Yeah...But I still lost...Guess I am not strong enough yet." Sean says with an unsatisfied face. "So what?" I ask him. "Hmm?" Sean looks confused. "So what if your not strong? Do you remember when we first met...I had no magic and I still was able to go up against you even though I wasn't strong enough." I say. "Yeah..." Sean is still confused. "So, I have gotten much stronger then I was back then." I say with a smile. Sean still doesn't seem to get it. "Dude, get the hint, you need to become much more stronger and never stop training." I say with a sigh. Sean chuckles. "Hmm?" I am confused by his chuckle. "Our fight is still on hold alright. I will definitely fight you someday and when that day comes...I assure you, I will be much stronger then you." Sean says with a smile and leaves. "And I will be waiting for that day to come." I say. "I will be watching you from the crowd." Sean says waving a goodbye at me.
"I know your hiding Mr. Olivia." I say to Bruno whose presence I felt behind me. "I am not hiding, I was just passing by, that's right." Bruno says as looks left and right, pretending he didn't try to hide just now. I smile and shrug. "Whatever." I say and begin to leave. "Thank you, kid..." Bruno says before I leave. "Sean was feeling down for his defeat...After all, fighting someone of that calibre, he wasn't ready for it." Bruno continues. "So, I want to thank you for cheering him up." Bruno says with a slight smile to his face. "BUT THAT DOESN'T CHANGE THE FACT YOUR IN THE SQUAD OF FAILURES YOU GET IT!" He says and leaves. I sigh. "Always acting like he doesn't care but he actually does, what a confusing person you are, Mr. Olivia." I say to myself.
Cyan's team advanced to the next round without any problems, her match was against the Elves. It was a match of accuracy, meaning archery. That girl Amy...Somehow her accuracy won the game for Cyan's team or else Cyan would have lost...The Elves couldn't believe that them being the strongest, they were knocked out in the top 8 of the tournament.
The next match was between the cat people and the demi humans, it was a match of hunting. Basically, hide and seek. For that the arena changed into a small city. The cat people were the hunting team and the demi-humans were being hunted. The cat people's high sense of sound and smell helped them out to an easy victory.
Finally, it was our match, against the fairies. Fairies are generally known to have a high quality of mana. This match isn't going to be easy...But it's kinda getting me excited as I walk into the bright stadium.
