The Adventurer System

As soon as Grim Draigh knew the exact timing when Crook would swing his scythe. He enhanced his physical strength and speed by using the [Berserk] skill. This skill would release a red-orange then aura that coated the body of the user.

Swoosh!

In just a blink of an eye, Yumiro appeared behind Crook while in his grasp was the Kariki knife. Even though Crook found out that his opponent was positioned behind him, still, it was not enough to get easily reach and dodge the attack.

Swish!

His eyes were widened when he saw in front of him the man's arm that poured by his blood. Yes, Grim barely pushed forward until his arm penetrated through Crook's chest along with the red knife.

Crook's eyes were turned into white, could not believe that this man could easily defeat him in a single slash.

Swoosh!

When the moment, Grim tugged his arm back. Crook was slowly dripping to the surface while his blood was flowing beside him. Aside from that, the screen already showed the winner of this matchup.

[Asarki's party take the first point! The score is 1-0 in favor of Asarki's party!]

Although the Guild Captains could not believe what their eyes were seeing right now. So they rubbed it just to clarify that their visions were not deceiving them. In their minds, how the masked guy could have such movements where the ordinary eyes could not catch up.

"The hell? Who is really the adventurer behind this mask? His movements and the precision of his attacks are all coordinates. What he exactly to have a power like this?" Night said in a deep tone, also this scene gave him some thoughts to jump to the vast platform and revealed this man identity.

As soon as he was going to leap, Primor grabbed his arm while slowly shaking his head. "Night, what are you doing? Our main job here is to find a new adventurer that would be part of our Guild. Not the thing that troubles your mind." Primor enlightened him.

It seemed it helped Night as he was slowly getting back to his seat. "Tsk! There's something wrong with that adventurer. Also, look at his hand, he had the kariki knife."

"Don't you ever try to lay your hand at that adventurer, Night." Brix Captain of the blue leaf guild and Shira the Captain of Rising Shiren guild they said at once.

It appeared that mostly of the Guild Captains were chosen the masked guy to be part of their guilds. If that happens, the Grim had the chance to pick the guild he wanted.

While the Guild Captains were having a serious argument. Gino just called the next participant that would be going to fight the masked guy.

__

OI! OI! OI! THE MASKED GUY DECIDED TO CONTINUE THE FIGHT! IT SEEMS THAT HE WAS NOT TIRED OF FIGHTING CROOK! HOW UNBELIEVABLE THIS ADVENTURER.

Gino kept hyping the audience so that the loud conversation of the Guild Captains could not hear at the stadium.

'What are they doing? How long they will talk in that kind of manner?' Gino uttered to his mind, at the same time, thankful the voice of the cheering audiences covered the Captains' voices.

OKAY! LET'S START THE NEXT MATCH! THE MASKED GUY VERSUS ANTOLIN THE MAN BELONGED TO THE ASSASIN CLASS!

After Gino introduced his next opponent. In front of him was a young man that had long black hair, a red half mask, or to be simply he was wearing the outfit the same as the assassin.

Moreover, Yumiro knew that can easily outmatch this man by using his extreme speed. To clear his mind, he deeply inhaled and slowly let it out. At the same time, putting to his mind that I must not show any mercy no matter who was the opponent.

Lolita's party plan was looked the same as they already deployed their fastest party member. For them, defeating the masked was the main key to winning this fight as they thought Hippie and Asarki were just easy to deal with since they did not show any remarkable attack for the past few fights.

Antolin gave his nod at Grim, respecting the power of his opponent. Or to be exact, Antolin has had a good behavior than the first man he fought.

"Let's have a good match." Even he had a cold expression, Antolin approached him.

Grim just nodded his head at him, "Likewise." As expected from Grim he was colder than the ice.

[00:01]

[00:00]

The two adventurers in the vast white platform withdrew their weapons. Then as soon as the count down reached the zero, Antolin was the one who created the first move.

Swoosh!

Fighting an assassin class you should always anticipate that they were to be aggressive since it was one of their perks. The assassin was specialized in eliminating their opponent before they would react as it was the only time they would be effective. Or to be exact, once their opponent saw them they can use tracking skills that could determine the location.

Clang!

Yumiro slid back after Antolin swung his silver dagger, somehow, he was managed to block the attack. But the thing was, Antolin, seemed to have enough power to eliminate him from this match.

'I must not lower my guard here.' He uttered to his mind, then started to step back so that he could analyze how exactly Antolin perform his dagger.

Their distance to each other was around five meters, it was enough to easily reach him.

[Divine dagger!]

Antolin took pacing of this fight as he forced the masked guy to step back and avoid his attack. But it was not ended with that because Antolin won't like to waste this big opening as he cast one of his skills.

A violet magic circle appeared over their heads, in the place where Antolin leaped along with his silver dagger.

"What is this-?"

When the moment Antolin suddenly increased his speed. Grim was forced to use the [Speed star dash] so that he can easily dodge the attack that was new for his eyes.

Boom!

Antolin's attack has created an explosion, but the thing that piqued everyone's attention was his dagger. To put it simply, after he landed on the surface his dagger turned into a golden weapon, at the same time, its size was increased as it is now larger than the ordinary sword. Aside from that, there was an electric current that flowed into it that was signed it was not just an ordinary skill.

Swoosh!

Antolin spun around after he spotted the masked guy's exact location. In an instant, he appeared in front of Grim while swinging his golden dagger upwards so that he can slice his neck.

Swish!

Grim stepped back while uplifting his head didn't expect that this man could be that fast. Even though he narrowly dodged the attack, still, he saw his neck that had a small cut.

Swoosh!

He used his hands to stop from sliding, then looked at Antolin that was still didn't stop from approaching him. He had a malicious smile on his face as he felt extreme excitement that bursting inside his chest.

[Physical transmission!]

He enhanced his arms and legs, then did the same thing. Grim now was dashing with a swift pace, yet it was not enough to stop Antolin.

[Time zone binding!]

[Pulgatory slash!]

And all of a sudden, after Antolin cast his skill. The entire place was starting to get red, also by doing this, he succeeded to catch the masked guy by the decomposed red hands that appeared on the surface.

"Eh? What's going on here-?" Grim could not finish his phrase as he received a deep cut on his stomach.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Antolin jumped to the air while releasing a dark aura all over his body. Now, it was the skill [Purgatory slash!]

Twenty slices of his dagger received by Grim, but because of his health power, he was still managed to survive and make a distance to Antolin.

Moreover, Antolin was looked shocked as the masked guy was the first time adventurer could survive after hitting by a direct attack.

"You are really tough, huh?" Antolin said with a weak tone, then looking at his arm that had a small slash and you could see the fire coated on it.

It seemed while Antolin attacking him with the twenty slashes, Grim tried to fight back.

"What did you do in this place? Why the adventurers and your teammates are not moving." He asked him with a high tone and could not help to spit some blood out of his mouth.

"Hmm... Since with your current state, I know that I guarantee the win in this fight." He paused for a second, then slowly walked towards Grim while his dagger scratched on the surface. "All the adventurers here are fine, I just paused the time so I can lock you in a certain area. By doing this, I can move in the place wherever I want." He explained along with a confident smile.

And suddenly, Yumiro smiled maliciously and said. "If that's the case, there's no reason to hide my power."

[Core devourer!]
