Chapter 277 Tournament IV - Duels
"Hannah, where are you going? You've been looking grim the whole day, did something happen?" Baron questioned, as he slowly caressed Hannah's shoulders.
"..."
But he didn't get any answer from her, as she kept looking at the main gate of the building like she was hoping to see someone.
"Hannah!" After a few more taps on her shoulder only she realised that Baron was calling her.
Hannah fidgeted nervously as she waited by the gate, her heart racing with anticipation. She had been planning this moment for weeks, ever since she had first laid eyes on Velian, her mortal enemy. He was the most handsome and charming man she had ever met, and she knew that she had to get her revenge even if it meant forcing him to have sex with her.
"I'll use my charm on him, nobody was able to resist it, at the end Velian is also a man, so he will definitely fall for me if I used my body," Hannah thought as she looked at Baron with a faint smile.
"I'm fine darling, I was just worried about that Viscount, he looks like he wanted to say something to you, but because of me, he didn't," Hannah muttered hoping she would get some freedom from this clinging bastard, who always tried to stay with her.
"Are you sure? Did he look that desperate?" To Baron's question, Hannah nodded her head up and down with flashy movements.
"You better talk with him? Don't mind me, I will just visit some food trucks, you should go and see whether it's important,"
"Be careful, Hannah, don't go too far,"
Leaving those words with her 'loving' fiance, Baron left to meet the Viscount.
As soon as he left, Hannah quickly entered through the gate and tried to search for Velian.
But when she finally saw him, several girls were surrounding him, which really pissed her off, as she couldn't even approach them.
"Damn it! There are always with them, why aren't they leaving damn hoes, clinging to my target like that," She muttered and thought about a plan, she can come up with to isolate Velian from others.
Meanwhile, the second round started with a bang, as the same young girl came to announce things, but this time things were intense as there was a dangerous stare-off on the ground between the first two opponents.
Even though it was a rather intense stare off the match was pretty underwhelming, as people expected to see something like the first round, where total chaos takes over the ground.
Since both opponents were from the same rank, the battle went on for a minute until one of them emerged as the winner, but the cheering wasn't intense, as they expected to see something more.
Right after they left the ground another battle happened and like this many battles took place, sometimes the crowd went crazy over the battles, as they were rather powerful for people that tried to battle Delviny and survived.
"Alright everyone, now it's the match everyone has been waiting for," The announcer girl said and pointed at the entrance to the battleground, and a girl with fiery red hair came with her eyes scanning the crowd, but she wanted to see where Velian was watching her from.
When she saw him cheering her, she obviously winked at him and looked at her opponent.
As Delviny made her way onto the tournament grounds, the crowd erupted into a frenzy of cheers and applause. Her fiery red hair bounced with every step she took, and her curvy body seemed to command the attention of everyone around her. The announcer girl wasted no time in boasting about Delviny's royal connections, painting her as the main star of the tournament.
"Behold, Our king's sister and our commander of the army, Lady Delviny! With her unmatched beauty and formidable fighting skills, she is sure to dominate this tournament!" The announcer girl exclaimed, her voice ringing out through the crowd.
Delviny raised a hand in acknowledgement of the crowd's cheers, her eyes scanning the opposite side to see her opponent's face clearly. She kept her guard up in case, another case like that black liquid appears.
As if on cue, her opponent strode onto the field, his bulky frame casting a shadow over the ground. His head was adorned with intricate tattoos, and he exuded an aura of raw power that made even the crowd hesitate for a moment.
They forgot to cheer as Delviny's opponent looked like he was some kind of a thug with all the scars on his face.
"Isn't that mad dog Gemini? I heard he's a berserker when it comes to fighting, that'd why he almost does everything solo," The crows started talking about what they knew about Delviny's opponent.
"I heard he's on the verge of ranking up to SS rank, soon he will be a legendary adventurer,"
And soon Delviny heard the voice of Gemini.
"Well, well, well. Look what we have here," the bulky man sneered, eyeing Delviny up and down.
"A pretty little princess who thinks she can fight. You're in for a rude awakening, sweetheart. Why don't you surrender now? I will go easy on your pretty face if you do that,"
Delviny squared her shoulders, her eyes flashing with determination.
"I may be a princess, but I'm also a warrior. And I'll show you just how skilled I am, besides aren't you a coward that hid in the first round? Why are you acting all high and mighty?" she retorted, her voice ringing out with confidence.
"I wasn't hiding, I just didn't feel like fighting, because I wanted to face you all alone,"
"Then shut up and come, idiot man," Delviny's words really affected Gemini, as he felt a nerve cracking as soon as he heard her words.
The crowd fell silent as the two fighters took their positions, the tension in the air palpable. The announcer girl raised her voice once again, her words echoing across the field.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the moment you've all been waiting for. Let the most awaited match of the tournament begin!"
