Chapter 241: Chapter 208 Finally Able to Meet
“Liss, who gave you the courage to challenge me?”
“Merely pebbles, not half as good as me.”
“You’re just looking for trouble!”
Igula looked at the ‘Victory Decided’ subtitle appearing on the Light Screen, and recorded on the notepad beside, “5:2, I declare Liss’s—”
“Hold on!” Ash grabbed the Swindler’s pant leg, his face pleading, “Make it eleven games and six wins, make it eleven games and six wins, let’s continue, I can turn this around! I already know how to play, it’s my turn next!”
Hiding by the window and chewing on cat grass, Harvey couldn’t help but say, “Ash, stop embarrassing yourself, you can’t even beat a little girl…”
Ash stubbornly retorted, “It’s just that I’m not used to the controllers of this world, and this couch is too soft, plus Igula keeps distracting me, so I—”
Igula felt too embarrassed, covered his face, and said to Banjee beside him, “Although I’ve said it a few times already, I must say—Ash is an exception, please don’t generalize individual behaviors to represent the country.”
The housekeeper boy, who always maintained a smile that wasn’t quite a smile, had a hard time controlling his Expression Management, his eyes almost squinting from laughter, “Mr. Ash, why not let me play a game against Liss, and see how I handle this character…”
“No!”
Liss suddenly shouted, “I want to fight him, I must defeat him!”
“Hmph, soon you’ll pay for your arrogance!” Ash yelled frantically and quickly started the next Mage duel.
During dinner, for some reason, Liss suddenly suggested dueling Ash.
Everyone felt it was strange but didn’t stop them, Banjee even volunteered to arrange the style of combat—that was the classic game “Mage Duel 14.”
New novel 𝓬hapters are published on ƒreewebɳovel.com.
The Mage Duel series had been the classic fighting game in the Kingdom of Gospel for the past thirty years where players could control different Legendary Mages to battle.
Not only did ordinary people love it, even Mages were loyal fans of the game—It could even be said that currently, almost all Combat Mages under thirty in the Kingdom of Gospel were influenced by this game, many dreaming of possessing the same powerful abilities as the characters in the game, which even affected the ratio of Mages throughout the entire Kingdom of Gospel.
The most popular characters in the Mage Duel series were the ‘Alchemist Dominator’ and the ‘Earth Empress’. The former could forge mechanisms barehanded, summon thousands of swords, and command water, fire, wind, and lightning using alchemy, mastering all factions; the latter changed terrain with every move, her techniques extravagant, and since the Earth Empress was also beautiful, she naturally became the favorite of countless players.
Therefore, in the Kingdom of Gospel, the Alchemy Faction and Earth Magic Faction had the most members, but they would soon realize they had been deceived—the Alchemy Faction essentially consisted of Creation Mages at the Silver Realm level, severely lacking in combat abilities; the prospects for the Earth Magic Faction mostly involved joining engineering teams, let alone seeing an Empress, you couldn’t even see a female cat while working in the wilderness.
However, due to these two factions having an overwhelming number of Mages, it even formed a population dividend allowing the urbanization of the Kingdom of Gospel to progress so rapidly in the last thirty years, even having enough manpower to construct a Multi-layer City… Uh?
I’ve digressed, Ash and Liss are currently battling in “Mage Duel 14,” but neither picked the popular characters.
Liss used the ‘Time Witch,’ Although called Time Witch, in order to balance the power, this character mostly used throws and close-range boxing, strong in impact but without dazzling effects.
Ash used the ‘Wandering Sword Saint,’ and as Sword Masters were a minority in the Kingdom of Gospel, though the Wandering Sword Saint’s power was also decent, its combat effects were lacking, naturally attracting fewer players.
Igula wasn’t much interested in these battling games, but he came along because of Banjee.
He secretly observed Banjee and noticed that the young housekeeper was very focused on the duel between Ash and Liss, and since Banjee had actively recommended this game, he leaned towards Banjee and asked, “Do you really like this game?”
“Not really…” Banjee rarely showed a proper young man’s bashfulness, “It just makes me happy.”
“Why happy?”
“Because this game is in my ‘to play with my future kids’ collection.”
Why don’t you have kids then… Igula glanced at Banjee’s seemingly undeveloped young body and decided to reserve this sad question.
Maybe some time in the future when they were adversaries, he’d use this question to embarrass him.
However, compared to Banjee, Igula right now was more focused on Liss.
The white-haired little girl stared seriously at the Light Screen, her fingers skillfully manipulating the joystick and buttons, playing increasingly proficiently with various catching, counter-attack moves, and defense-breaking skills, controlling the Time Witch to brutalize the Wandering Sword Saint.
Igula could tell that this was indeed her first time playing the game, her first game was rough, dominated by Ash, who had a bit of competitive game skill.
But she quickly improved by the second game, and Ash could only rely on repetitively using the Wandering Sword Saint’s defense-breaking skills to brutally subdue her, then by the third game, she figured out how to counter various skills, following which was a route of steamrolling victories over Ash.
Igula thought she’d stop after winning a game, then play cutely and lose to Ash, but unexpectedly, she showed no mercy, meeting Ash’s provocations with relentless thrashing.
Although types like Ash certainly deserve a harsh beating, this was out of character for Liss—like Igula, her only principle of action was benefit, winning over Ash brought no advantages apart from satisfaction.
