Chương 318: Bracket: Fighters V

(Mei Gui's Perspective)

Slowly, I stepped onto the stage. Across from me was a beautiful elf girl who looked to be slightly older than Master. Upon spotting me, she smiled brightly.

"I look forward to fighting you, Mei Gui!"

"… Likewise," I responded quietly. Since she greeted me, I would do the same in return, even though I did not want to. Master taught me that.

"We're running a bit low on time here, so without further ado, I'm just gonna start it, hahah!" the announcer suddenly cut into our conversation rudely. "Ready? 3, 2, 1, go!"

"…" neither of us moved, mainly because of how casual the countdown was.

"Hello? I said go! Go already! Shoot some stuff, swing some stuff, kill some stuff! Go go go!"

"E-Er… well, I suppose that means the battle has begun," the elf, Rain, laughed softly. "Then, here I go. Prepare yourself."

I nodded, letting her have the first strike to test her skills out. Going in blindly would be a bad move.
