Shadow King Chronicles: Building a Kingdom From Behind the Scenes
Chapter 48: Before the Battle
three days passed and finally the tournament awaited by all the disciples finally came!
yahh I am quite enthusiastic.not because I am confident of winning or anything, I am just curious to see the fighting techniques possessed by other disciples.
usually each of them has a technique that is passed down from their families, especially the noble families and the Knight family.
well, what I was waiting for the most was the techniques of the three great Knight families - the Albatros, the Hills, and the Grown. these three families have been the prima donna of the entire kingdom when it comes to producing great warriors.
huahhh, I can't wait to see them fighting each other, if I can I want to learn the techniques they use.
ah right too, I'm still worried about what Wolf is reporting, but I think he and his team have taken the necessary measures to prevent White Goat from infiltrating the game and wreaking havoc.
I still have no clue as to who paid them, what their goals were, and who the real targets were. But one thing is for sure, they're going to mess up the show. that's what Wolf reported two days before this event started.
if only I had more time!
but regretting that now is also useless.I have some way to learn information from the White Goats later.The most important thing now is not to let your guard down.
well, I was wondering what the tournament would be like.
****
The stadium where the tournament took place is now very crowded! the spectators had already filled the empty benches available in the stadium while the participants of the tournament were getting ready to compete.
it can be said that the room is like a dressing room.well just think of it like that. there is also a sign of who will compete with whom. this makes participants more enthusiastic!
the number of participants of the tournament this time was thirty people.they were arguably the best disciples ready to fight in the arena of the match.well, perhaps not yet told, yet, but they obviously faced selection first before being allowed to enter the tournament.
there are no restrictions. Anyone from any year can participate in the selection.As long as you can pass the selection, you will be allowed to fight.
when Issac saw the person he was fighting with, he suddenly smiled.it was very interesting.
now, let's take care of something else.
****
behind the scenes, several people were infiltrating a room inside the arena after breaking the necks of the guards on duty in front of the room.
their work is tidy, they move without the sound of audible steps and eliminate the air of their existence until they reach a point where they are only considered as the last wind.
in total they were five people. after successfully infiltrating the room, they immediately deactivated the magic artifact that served to protect the spectators and installed a cube-shaped artifact with the usual black color used to suppress magic abilities.it was an extremely rare and expensive tool.
"Yosh, with this our task is complete. will this artifact be activated directly?" one of them asked.
"There is no need to rush. let them cheer and let their guard down. That's when we will go straight into action. Take it easy, the other five people are already preparing in their respective places."
"Good!! well, now.let them have fun on their last day of life."
they laugh out loud, not knowing that all their activities and movements have been monitored from the beginning.they are completely unaware what they will face next is a tragedy for them.
