บท 25: The Unfair Match (I)
"Sir, your match will be ready in a couple of minutes. Please prepare yourself," The introducer informed the nervous Jisung, staying at one single spot looking down to the ground wordlessly like he was deep in thought, "Jisung...Are you that nervous?"
"Ah! Erm...No...Yes...A little?" Jisung replied as he stammered through his words which made Seunghyuk smile to himself watching Jisung act like a nervous bomb at the edge of detonation and he replied, "Jisung, I believe in your abilities. You were able to stand your ground when I was fighting with you in the Battle Pod, so I see no problem for you in the next fight. Like I said before, an arena's rank does not necessarily equate to the Conqueror's ability level, so just give it your best. I'll be right here waiting for your call of success."
Jisung seemed to have calmed down significantly after Seunghyuk delivered a whole paragraph of consolation. The centre arena stage was cleared and the judge had settled down once again, waiting for the next fight to commence. The audience was getting restless and worked up after Seunghyuk had lectured them about their actions, hence being impatient as a result. Jisung might be in trouble, but Seunghyuk still had faith in Jisung as he knew Jisung would be able to fight himself through any problems in his way.
"Ladies and gentleman! The next arena match will commence now! You will catch a fight between a Beggar's Rank and a Soldier's Rank! Who would be able to be the last one standing? Everyone, let us watch the match between Jisung in the Beggar's Rank versus The Penetrator in the Soldier's Rank!"
*Beggar Rank being the lowest, then Soldier's Rank, Knight's Rank, Lord Rank and the highest Emperor's Rank
"Wow, Jisung picked a really...normal arena name, I suppose," Seunghyuk commented as he tried to pull himself out of the dirty side of the other Conqueror's arena name, "Anyhow, Jisung should be able to win this."
Jisung stood on the centre stage with his mana energy-made sword as he watched The Penetrator walk up onto the stage as if he was some king of a country. Jisung was immediately disturbed by the Conqueror's cockiness and arrogance and had a strong urge to knock the Conqueror off his high position.
"Hey lil' boy! You're friends with that other boy up there, right? Do you know the previous Conqueror your friend defeated is my friend?" The Conqueror mocked Jisung as he asked with a cocky tone which Jisung replied with, "And how does that matter to me? Your friend was incompetent so he lost. Will you be the second one after him?"
Seunghyuk, standing at the top of the arena watching the match, could easily tell Jisung was not used to making all these comments at his opponent, and Seunghyuk was not all used to it as well. However, Seunghyuk's attitude had somehow changed when he came into contact with the ring a few days ago, like it made him more Conqueror-like. It was like his emotions was altered secretly day by day.
"Oh what big words that came out from your lil' mouth?" The Conqueror bent his height down to look at Jisung in the face which Jisung immediately stepped back when the Conqueror threatened at a lower tone, "You know your lil' body will be crushed if you continue speaking to me like this, right?"
Seunghyuk had a bad feeling about the match, it was like danger lurking around him and holding him by the neck, but Seunghyuk was unable to exactly pinpoint what that danger was. It only passed by as a short sensation of fear, like a bad premonition that something bad would happen. Seunghyuk immediately analysed and compared Jisung's stats to the Conqueror's stats.
"Conqueror's Name: Jeon Jisung (Male)
Conqueror's Rank(Legendclad): Gold (Head of Gold-ranked Members)
Conqueror's Level: 5
Strength: 19
Agility: 20
Defense: 18
MP: 23
Skills: Blade Dance (3 out of 5 stars)
Horse of Three Kingdoms (3 out of 5 stars)
Reed Of Speed (3 out of 5 stars)
Aquarius's Water Jug(2 out of 5 stars)
One With The Surroundings(1 out of 5 stars)"
Seunghyuk could tell that Jisung had improved his skills and had sharpened his abilities even further. Jisung was not equipped with any ring of some sort like Seunghyuk, at least not that Seunghyuk is aware of, but Jisung was able to raise his stat points and his skill star mastery within a day. It was surprising even if it was a minor increase.
"Conqueror's Name: Yang Yeokmin (Male)
Conqueror's Level: 4
Strength: 15
Agility: 17
Defense: 15
MP: 14
Skills: Spike Party (2 out of 5 stars)
House Of Arrows (2 out of 5 stars)
Mega Palm (1 out of 5 stars)
Body Drill (1 out of 5 stars)"
"Jisung shouldn't have too much of a problem fighting against this Conqueror. Jisung has much better skill levels and more stat points. Jisung has the upper hand," Seunghyuk analysed, but under his layer of assurance laid another layer of fear, and it was that uneasiness that made Seunghyuk be constantly on edge, "I don't like this feeling. Jisung, please be safe."
Jisung was constantly on guard waiting for an attack from the Conqueror, smiling to himself confidently as if he was for sure he would win. Just as Jisung was about to leap out towards the Conqueror out of impatience, spikes grown out from the ground and Jisung immediately used his skill, Reed Of Speed, to dash out of the way. The spikes broke out from under the arena floor as it grown to a scary height of 3 metres within 3 seconds, it would have been fatal if Jisung did not avoid the attack.
"Wow! Our lil' boy is really fast!" The Conqueror mocked Jisung again as he continued to let spikes grow from under the arena ground, and Jisung kept dodging out of the way with his Reed Of Speed skill on, "Let's see how long you'll be able to dodge these attacks!"
"Why would I plan on dodging! Blade Dance" Jisung shouted out as he launched himself forward, shocking the Conqueror for a split second, which was enough for Jisung to deal great damage on the Conqueror with his Blade Dance skill, "This is the outcome of your arrogance!"
Jisung's Blade Dance skill was almost unable to predict, and Seunghyuk had a difficult time getting himself out of it when he was faced with it. It was effective enough to deal many cuts on the Conqueror, but the Conqueror remained standing, seemingly more annoyed than pained as Jisung sensed the animosity coming.
"House of Arrows!" The Conqueror shouted and Jisung was alerted, dashing around the arena stage aimlessly as all around the arena situated twelve crossbows, readying to fire automatically, "You're dead, lil' boy!"
The arrows fire out mercilessly like it rained arrows travelling at the speed of a car. Jisung's Reed Of Speed had a limit and one of the arrows flew past Jisung's cheek and left a line of red as blood flowed out of that region.
"I got hit...I have to play my moves strategically..." Jisung said to himself as he slowly disappeared in front of the Conqueror's sight, which Seunghyuk immediately recognised Jisung's skill of One with the Surroundings.
The Conqueror looked around frantically when Jisung went invisible, and Jisung took the chance to dash forward opening cuts on the Conqueror's body as he heard him growl like a pained bear. The Conqueror was deeply angered, but was unable to do anything. It was like a cockroach dying under a human's insecticide spray, though unhappy with its death, it was unable to do anything. This was the same for the Conqueror, as nothing works against absolute power.
"God fucking damn it! You're going to pay in full and with interest!" The Conqueror shouted out angrily as he suddenly backfaced Jisung, and turned back after a few seconds, "Now you're really dead meat."
"What...Did he just?!" Seunghyuk exclaimed out of shock as he stared angrily at what the System screen was showing him, "He used strengthening vials! Jisung is in danger!"
"Conqueror's Name: Yang Yeokmin (Male)
Conqueror's Level: 4
Strength: 22 (Increased by 7 with vial)
Agility: 24 (increased by 7 with vial)
Defense: 22 (increased by 7 with vial)
MP: 21 (increased by 7 with vial)
Skills: Spike Party (2 out of 5 stars)
House Of Arrows (2 out of 5 stars)
Mega Palm (1 out of 5 stars)
Body Drill (1 out of 5 stars)"
"How is no one seeing this?" Seunghyuk sounded out angrily and the introducer just shook his head as he informed Seunghyuk solemnly while lowering his head, not daring to look Seunghyuk in his eyes, "The judge must have been bribed by the opposing Conqueror, hence your friend did not stand a chance at the very beginning."
Seunghyuk thought of jumping out to save Jisung, but there were numerous amount of guards wearing scary-looking masks standing guard beside the judge. It was like a fortress, completely impossible to infiltrate.
"So is there no way out!" Seunghyuk was exasperated and looked at Jisung standing his ground weakly with his hands shivering, "Jisung...I'm just too weak...I'm just not strong enough to save you..."
