Chapter 293: Chaos of Demons
Karoso didn’t worry about what the netizens said.
This Knight Tournament is so complicated; you never know if that lady knight and her opponent are just putting on a show or if things are really that extreme.
Just like some celebrities who go too far to get attention.
Since it’s hard to tell what’s real, netizens have a relaxed attitude about it.
Plus, they are watching anime, so they are already a bunch of fun-loving people.
"Come on, come on! Let her show a little more!"
"Aim for the important spots!"
"She should show what needs to be shown!"
"You are being really heartless, aren’t you?"
"What a group of rude men."
"Haven’t you ever seen a woman before?"
"Go for it! Defeat him and show him that women are not easy to bully!"
"This is so terrible, why not just give up?"
"That guy is so disgusting, does he even deserve to be called a knight?"
The audience members have different qualities; there are all kinds of people.
The view of the world here is quite strange. In some countries, women have high status, while in others, their status is very low. In some places where women’s status is already high, they are still fighting for even greater rights.
From what was said on-site, those shouting the loudest are from countries where women have a higher status.
If there are some subordinate ones, they don’t dare to speak up at this time.
"Don’t let me see him!" Aileen’s eyes were filled with anger. "If I see him, I will make sure he suffers!"
"Keep going," Karoso nodded.
"Don’t you get angry when you see this?" Aileen’s gaze was on Karoso.
"I’ve seen worse things; in fact, I’ve gotten used to it," Karoso replied helplessly.
Aileen fell silent for a moment.
She realized that ever since the Knight Tournament began, she had not felt at ease; everything was completely different from what she had imagined.
The screen showed matches between men and women. If one paid attention, they would notice that in the first and second matches, the chances of the female knights appearing were quite similar.
There’s no choice; everyone loves to watch!
Soon, that female knight collapsed on the field from exhaustion, and the crowd felt a wave of regret.
The male knight, however, left the arena with pride.
This was just one match; many knights had fallen along the way.
The Pastor would immediately treat them after they lost the match, and they could walk off the field by themselves.
But at that moment, making some proud people walk off on their own felt worse than killing them.
They would rather have their arms and legs broken, never to heal, be carried off the field, or even die on the stage.
Let them walk down by themselves, it is like rubbing their dignity and pride into the ground.
Many knights left with tears in their eyes, clenching their fists.
Of course, some knights remained humble.
The first round of the competition took almost the entire morning to finish; not everyone fights as quickly as Karoso.
In theory, Karoso doesn’t normally fight that fast; knight competitions usually take a longer time. Both sides are tough and strong, and their attacks are more like gentle taps.
After having lunch, the afternoon matches began quickly.
This time, Karoso had little to do; he mainly watched Aileen’s match against another person.
Aileen’s fighting style was proper and looked like she had a famous teacher. At first, she was a bit unsteady, but she seemed to be a natural warrior. Soon, she found her rhythm and pushed her opponent back step by step.
Laypeople watch for excitement, while experts look for the details.
Karoso watched carefully and found that Aileen was a true fighter with incredible talent.
In just one match, Aileen transformed from someone who could only spar with practice partners into a real competitor.
Moreover, her fighting style was very careful and steady.
After a few more matches, Karoso wouldn’t dare to say he could easily defeat Aileen.
In fact, if he wanted to fight her, he needed to use Mark of the Divine Favor from the start; otherwise, he would be overwhelmed and easily defeated by someone like her.
It can only be said that anyone called a top-notch fighter by netizens is not to be underestimated.
Aileen went straight back to Karoso’s side.
Her heart was racing as she realized this battle was different from the ones before, and she understood that the people she fought against in the past were really holding back.
"Phew… How was that? Wasn’t it impressive?"
Aileen did not show any fear in front of Karoso; instead, she wore a proud expression, as if this kind of battle was nothing new to her.
"I said from the start that you are strong and a worthy opponent," said Karoso.
"Well, before, I only thought you were just talking, but now… I recognize you as a true opponent!" Aileen patted Karoso on the shoulder.
"In the next match, we must win; we need to meet in the finals!" Karoso looked at Aileen and said, "I hope you can win the championship of this tournament."
"Then you might lose!" Aileen laughed, covering her mouth.
"I won’t hold back," Karoso replied with a determined look.
"Well, neither will I!"
……
The matches here are from nine o’clock to eleven thirty in the morning, and from one thirty to four in the afternoon.
At this time, there is still enough for another battle, specifically 240 against 120.
Four people in a group, and the two winners will face a true challenge.
Those who made it through the last round had less luck involved.
"The time has come for the final selection. Please welcome the winners back to the arena, let us witness your bravery, let us see you embark on the journey toward glory, and let us… join you in obtaining the honor that belongs to you!" the host exclaimed.
All the remaining contestants, upon hearing this, walked towards the arena.
This time, Karoso was facing a male knight.
Judging by his age, he seemed to be around thirty, with a light stubble on his face, looking very composed.
Karoso and he exchanged a knightly gesture.
The knight gravely summoned his Sword Shield.
As a contestant, he cared a lot about Karoso’s previous battle and wanted to know why the female knight had attacked that squire.
Unfortunately, he could only find out during the competition.
Someone had already lost to this boy, and he did not see Karoso as just a child; he was ready to give his all and defeat him.
This boy looked like a noble and was very popular, making him able to come back to life.
As for him, there was no way to retreat.
Ding!
The bell rang, and the competition officially began.
Just like the female knight, the knight summoned his own Sword Shield and armor.
Karoso also started the same way, summoning Shining Courage and Mysterious Guardian, while five mysteries appeared above his head.
The knight decisively threw out a card.
[Name: Brave Charge]
[Category: Spell]
[Star Level: 4]
[Grade: Blue Rare]
[Occupational Restriction: Knight]
[Description: Primarily a shield, with a sword for support, a balance of attack and defense!]
The knight rushed toward Karoso, but the mystery above Karoso’s head did not activate!
