The Newbie Is Too Strong's
239. Determination Duel (6) – LAST CHAPTER

The last match was the determination of representatives of the top four Indonesia attended the international e-sport vrmmorpg competition held by Kak Krimson and Lia to compete for the last place in the top four.

The first, second, and third positions, whatever the final result of the match has been absolutely held by Kak Malik, me, and Senior Asario. As for who was in fourth place, it was determined by this last match.

On points, Lia is ahead of Kak Krimson even though with a smaller number of matches, which is only seven, while Kak Krimson has followed eight matches because not once did he get a free break in one match session.

In the number of wins, Lia was still superior to Kak Krimson which is 86% victory or 6 of his 7 winning matches, while Kak Krimson only won 63 % only 5 of his 8 matches won.

Unfortunately, the quality of the participants they faced was different. Kak Krimson lost a lot by top participants namely Kak Malik, me, and Senior Asario who all three have indeed won the chosen place, while Lia lost to Kak Ferdi who was only a middle class participant.

Although Lia won over Senior Asario, the points he contributed were quite a bit because Lia won when Senior Asario did not show his seriousness so there was an indication from the committee that Senior Asario had deliberately lost.

As a result, their points were almost balanced so that everything will be clarified in this last game.

And so, the match began.

It was Lia who first came forward with her magic gun.

Brother Krimson dodged slickly and began to spread his poison mist.

Lia immediately protected herself from the sacred protector, a hallmark of her cleric class.

Brother Krimson soon knew that his poison would be useless at all to weaken Lia's defenses, even though it would have been enough to slow her movements since Lia had obtained sacred protection.

Brother Krimson then began to attack more actively through his dagger.

Lia brushed it off with her death fist while moving backwards to choose a long-range fight against an opponent whose movements could not be predicted like Kak Krimson's.

Unfortunately, again everything is determined by stamina. Lia is not wrong anymore is a battle healer who trains a lot of stamina to be more able to carry out his role as a battle healer.

However, all there remain limitations if against top players. Ebony's silat suit and magic gun had covered up Lia's shortcomings a lot, but Lia still had a lot to improve at some point her weakness points, especially in the stamina problem.

In principle it will be difficult because the stamina between a man and woman is different from there.

Nevertheless, to me, Lia this time had fought very well. Similarly, when he defeated Kak Leo and Kak Goruth in the international e-sport match, Lia showed a very brilliant performance.

It was just that his opponent this time was much more experienced in real fighting than him. Kak Krimson developed his skills in real combat under Principal Crevon de Lowrence in the Land of Nostalgia, while Lia relied too much on simulated avatars in her training.

Lia who was meticulous in investigating her opponent so that to the point of thinking about the various simulations that she embodied in the form of the doppelganger avatar program, was too fixated on it.

Lia also forgot that humans are the most flexible living creatures in the universe. It is also what causes humans not to become extinct in the midst of various extreme changes in the world.

Kak Krimson will certainly be different from the one in the simulation. Kak Krimson will move according to the situation or according to how his opponent will move. That's what will eventually lead to a lot of irregularities in Lia's data.

Certainly from this match, Lia will realize that simulation is important, but we should not be too dependent on it. Real experience in fighting is what matters. Because sometimes from real battles, we will get real time data that is difficult to analyze just by looking at it from a computer screen.

After this, after, I'm sure that Lia will develop into an even greater athlete since he is now able to be aligned with top athletes since he was able to beat the best international athletes such as Kak Leo and Goruth.

Unfortunately for now, he has to lose to Kak Krimson.

The one who took the fourth place as Indonesia's representative in the international e-sport vrmmorpg match was apparently Kak Krimson.

Lia failed for the year. Nevertheless, I have remained proud of him as his girlfriend ever since Lia was an accomplished athlete with a myriad of potential.

But when I think like that, come once again the announcement of the committee to the participants who escaped that was no less astounding.

“Now, each of the players who qualify can choose one assistant among the 27 athletes who failed, to accompany you in the international level vrmmorpg e-sport competition.”

“The chances of those acting as assistants will probably be smaller to win the competition at the international level than you, but it must be remembered, to some degree, that is, they will again be your opponents who will fight for the champion position there.”

“But never think you will choose a weak athlete as your partner because you are guaranteed not to be able to go further in the competition if your partner is weak. One more addition, you are allowed to choose athletes outside of your club. But of course, you are also allowed to choose athletes from the same club.”

That is what the committee said. We also started to choose starting from the first champion, namely Kak Malik. Beyond my expectations, Malik apparently did not choose his close friend Kak Brian, but chose Senior Areka.

Then next, it was me who chose as the second champion. And of course, I chose Lia as my partner.

Then came Senior Asario's turn who of course would choose Brother Glen. As for Kak Krimson, also of course he will choose Kak Ferdi.

That is how the combination of vrmmorpg e-sport participant teams at the international level of Indonesian representatives was determined.

***

All the spectators applauded with great fanfare to welcome the composition of the Indonesian representative team. Not to be missed by one of the suspicious figures who were also present there.

He is a mysterious young man who has recently been in contact with Luca.

“Until now, everything is going according to plan. Now is the time to move to the next stage of the plan to prevent Senior Luca from his bad luck.”

That's how the young man said while leaving the podium after the competition.

***

Elsewhere, Judith appears to have been with a junior named Rayen. He did not join Rowin and Nina's entourage in supporting Luca live on the podium due to his busy work. In fact, Judith was currently in that place as well.

“Amazing performance from the younger generation huh, Senior Judith. Unfortunately, Luca has to lose to a player named Malik, the same player we currently keep an eye on because it often roams around abyss.”

“What is important to me is that now the child can smile sincerely with happiness, very different from the first time I picked him up first. The most important thing is Luca's happiness. So whatever tries to hinder his happiness, I will not hesitate to exert all my strength and efforts to get rid of him.”

***

The competition is over. Not the best result, but I am still satisfied with all of it.

This is just a starting point. The real competition is still in the eye where later I will challenge Ecila and then beat him in an official competition with our dragon fight. There I will once again challenge Kak Malik and seize his position as the best in Indonesia. No, not only in Indonesia, but in the world.

I've been through a lot up until this moment. I have been able to survive this far because I have never stopped achieving my dreams. However, the support of Kak Nina, Aunt Judith, Lia, and everyone who means by my side certainly does not lose to give a large contribution.

Dad, Mom, I'm glad to have come to this world. Hopefully after all this, more happiness will be prepared to wait for me.

***

But in an unknown place Luca, a king from the Symphonia Kingdom was talking to one of his followers. The follower spoke to the king.

“So you have decided not to cooperate again with the Kingdom of Melodia, Your Majesty?”

“After the crimes behind them, of course not only our kingdom, the Nostalgic Country will certainly break the relationship of cooperation with them. After all the Lalania Empire had changed under their new emperor. Emperors are now concerned with the fate of the commoners, so there is no longer any reason for us to antagonize them. More important than that, Dimitri, how is your investigation of the boy?”

And the person the king spoke to, apparently none other than Dimitri, one of Luca's treasured companions in his assassin guild.

“He is not the stooge of the devil as we thought, Your Majesty. He was just an ordinary human who was somehow also related to the matter of the cracking of the heavens. I'm still investigating it. Most likely, he will instead become our precious ally in the future.”

“Good. Then, I leave it to you to continue your investigation, Dimitri von Copenhagen.”

“Ready, Your Highness.”

***

Then somewhere else, a young man who looked to be in his college age was shivering in fear staring at the glass screen on television.

He was apparently watching Luca who was competing in the competition.

“She, she, she is that monster, Ellen! He's a monster that comes out of the game world!”

If you recall the first chapter of this novel, you will certainly be familiar with the name of the character ID BENTONG, a cleric who suddenly disappeared after the Luca incident appeared in the real world.

He basically did not disappear, but hid from the pursuit of secret officials from the government who were chasing him.

Weckingpeach, Chivilish, and Naoya has each been caught by the government and is brainwashed to forget the existence of Luca so that they have returned to their ordinary lives by forgetting the incident of swallowing an NPC character in the skies of Symphonia Kingdom, then some time reappeared as a newbie player who conquered the silver wolf quest and managed to obtain the hidden quest there.

Unlike Bentong, he has not been caught by the government. And he is currently in hiding by being cared for by his sister, Ellen, one of Luca's colleagues at amateur e-sport club Pelita Harapan High School.

“Kakak, relax! How can there be a game character who can come out into the real world. Awake, Brother! All of that is just a hallucination of Brother.”

“No! Nah! You're wrong, Ellen! He really is a monster!”

Although Ellen was against her brother's absurd remarks, deep down after her deep investigation into the boy named Luca, Ellen seemed to start to gradually believe her brother's crazy words.
