Chapter 196: Witnesses

Chapter 196: Witnesses

The absolute rule of the social gathering or the community in the time and space.

All hostile acts between each other were prohibited.

Naturally, it was a rule that couldnt be properly obeyed.

I didnt know about the Arcana Continents perspective.

But players had great pride.

If you turned on the Internet right now and looked at any player community, you would find more than one or two keyboard battles going on.

Would the social gathering of time and space where only the transcendents gathered would be any different?

No, they might actually be even worse.

Maybe thats why they put that rule in the first place.

What if such rules didnt exist in the social gathering of time and space?

The smell of blood wouldnt have gone away in that luxurious space.

But you couldnt prevent a conflict no matter how hard you tried.

Above all, AAU must have watched the players fighting all the time. It was only natural that there were rules for such situations.

[A duel content can be processed through the Stagnant Water Community.]

AAUs data stated so.

To translate those words

A duel can be conducted through the Social Gathering of Time and Space.

You might be wondering.

Although it was incomplete, it worked on its own.

There were also additional rules and purposes related to it.

[The fight will be broadcast on Arcanas website]

[A lot of viewers are expected to gather for the duel between rankers]

[The additional income from the streaming be distributed to the winners]

[It can stimulate players desire to increase their level]

When I checked up to this point, I realized that AAU was not the developer of Arcana for no reason. They were fully aware of the players psychology.

A duel between rankers.

They would broadcast it live on Arcanas website.

All the resulting additional income would be monopolized by the winner.

I would have drooled too.

As had been stated.

It could have been a great attraction for general viewers, and it could have been another motivation for players to become rankers.

Of course, this was all from when Arcana was just a game.

We dont know how the system will be implemented.

It was uncertain.

But as you could see.

I offered Shegwin a duel of time and space.

The reason was simple.

Was it to overcome false pride with true pride, as Granfel said?

No, I didnt know about Grandfel, but.

I, Lee Hoyeol, didnt have such a cool reason.

I felt a presence overhead.

At the top of Zero Mountain.

Strong energy began to rise from the dragons nest.

The energy was stronger than the magic circle of the Mage Tower.

I could guarantee.

If the dragons woke up

You really cant stop that thing!

What about the sealing magic circle?

That was just something spread by mass media that didnt know anything!

The magic circle of the Mage Tower was not for sealing the dragons. In the first place, there was no way that the Mage Tower, which had suffered a crushing defeat in the Great Dragon-Demon War, could manifest such magic.

Really, the magic circle is just to avoid disturbing the dragons sleep.

Since the Mage Tower uncharactically put a lot of effort.

Let alone waking up from the slightest noise.

There shouldnt have been any tossing and turning.

I cant help but resent that damn Vivace again, Grandfel!

It cant be helped.

In that regard, this was the best judgment.

[The duel of time and space has been approved.]

The battle site was moved into the consciousness.

Back when Arcana was just a game.

You didnt have to worry about losing your life in a duel.

But now it was a different story.This chapter made its debut appearance via N0v3lB1n.

The fact that my life is on the line doesnt change.

The only thing that changed was the fact that neither I nor Shegwin could run away.

Shegwin seemed to be aware of that.

The black pupils met my eyes for the first time.

I didnt expect you to know these rules. Youre not like a newbie.

Indeed, he was the Sword Saint.

He was still a transcendent.

He overcame the natural enemy relationship only with his strong mind.

However, I also didnt lag behind when it came to mental power.

I commend your judgment in responding to the duel.

Look, I was calm enough to praise someone in front of me.

A duel of time and space.

Naturally, it needed mutual consent.

Shegwin burst into laughter as if he were having fun.

No, its actually something I should be grateful for.

Even if I arrogantly praised him, he was grateful.

What was that discomfiting reaction?

But Shegwin seemed genuinely grateful.

When I thought I couldnt escape, I actually felt at ease.

Ah, that was what he meant?

For me, to avoid the dragons, and for Shegwin, to suppress his demonic instinct to avoid natural enemies. The duel of time and space was approved because our interests coincided.

Soon, the scenery began to be overlaid.

What filled it was fields.

It was an amphitheater, a colosseum, that even had spectator seats.

Anyway, it was gorgeous.

Even compared to the social gathering hall decorated with various gold and silver treasures.

The stadium was so spectacular that it was not inferior in any way.

Above all, it was huge and magnificent.

If you didnt know the concept of consciousness, you would feel overwhelmed just by seeing it.

Of course, we will accept it. Observe.

A message appeared again.

[Enters the duel of time and space.]

And their vision changed.

!!!

As if they had been warped through a portal.

The whole landscape had changed.

Leonie was the first out of the three of them to open her mouth.

Crazy.

It was said to be a duel of time and space.

It was definitely a Colosseum.

But she couldnt imagine such a huge Colosseum to appear! She had never seen such a magnificent Colosseum since the days when Arcana was just a game.

Sss-

Soon, just like them.

Players showed up in the stands at the Colosseum.

Nam Taemin and Hisagi were sitting next to her.

Other than those two, she saw familiar faces.

Rox, Camilla, Schraig, Liu Jinchun?

Hisagi, with his snake eyes, came to a conclusion.

It seems the message came to all players who entered Zero Mountain. No player would say no to the message unless there was a specific reason.

Thanks to this, the stands at the Colosseum were filled up quickly.

W-Where did this stadium suddenly appear from?

It took a moment for everyone to understand the situation.

He thought of something more important than the vast Colosseum.

What about Hoyeol-ssi?

Nam Taemins gaze turned to the center of the Colosseum.

!

Hoyeol was there.

As upright as ever.

And there was a man across him.

Who is that?

Blue hair.

His unique appearance stood out even from a distance.

It was so unique that you couldnt forget it once you encountered it.

But nothing came to mind at all.

If he has a duel with Hoyeol-ssi

If he couldnt recognize a player with that level of skill, then there was one possibility.

He immediately concluded.

That man was an Arcanain.

While he was thinking, he heard a voice from the stands.

Wait, I think I know who he is.

What? Who is he?

That sword! Ive seen it!

Sword?

At those words, all eyes turned towards the mans sword.

Everyone could easily recognize it.

Since the days when Arcana was just a game.

Such a fancy sword was rare.

Indeed, that was the Sword Saints sword.

Nam Taemin murmured.

Come to think of it, didnt the Sword Saint have blue hair?

Sword Saint, Shegwin.

Thats right! That name! Ive heard of it!

Leonie nodded at Hisagis words.

But it didnt make sense.

Shegwin who the players remembered was middle-aged.

No, he was closer to old age than that.

Did he take a rejuvenation potion ?

Even if its Arcana, does such an item exist?!

No, more importantly.

There was another thing they didnt understand.

Why are those two fighting?

They heard some loud noise in Zero Mountain.

The main characters of that sound were Hoyeol and the Sword Saint.

Naturally, the players.

Including Nam Taemin and his group who had been watching Hoyeol by his side.

They couldnt easily fathom the situation.

Therefore.

As expected, it was something they couldnt understand.

Haiel.

Haiel descended gracefully from the air.

There was a sword in Haiels arms.

And Hoyeol received that sword.

Buzz

The audience began to shake.

That cant be, right?

Is he really going to fight the Sword Saint with a sword?

With Shegwin who has regained his youth?

Even if hes Hoyeol-nim, this is!

So they couldnt understand until the end.

Click

The reason why a message came up in front of their eyes.

When Hoyeol raised his sword.

I checked the floating system window.

No matter how many times I looked at it, it didnt change.
