Bringing Culture to a Different World

Chapter 97

Translator: Yang_Wenli Editor: Yang_Wenli

“No... that is not that an Ecclesiastical Templar’s proper behavior!”

Messai did not imagine that her colleague would engage in gambling.

While there were no laws in the Nation of the Holy Church banning gambling, it was the duty of the Ecclesiastical Templars to abide by the gods and uphold a conviction to stay far from temptations like gambling.

Of course, this female knight failed to discover that she herself had fallen into temptations that she disdained.

“Miss knight, why don’t you give gambling a try? Perhaps you’ll be able to earn back the money you’ve spent on purchasing card packs?”

To Messai, what Joshua just said was truly vicious.

Indeed, she was slightly lacking money. But, even if that was the case, Messai was determined to uphold the bottom line of her principles.

The female knight turned around and decided to ignore Joshua. She turned her eyes to the center stage.

With the protection of the Holy Light, Archbishop Desireless successfully won the first match. Using Priest, he defeated his Mage opponent.

Once the first match was over, the Gray Mage was immediately unsatisfied with the result. He urged for his old friend to begin the next match.

The reason why he was so unconvinced with the outcome of the match was because Gray Mage was defeated by his own mage spells!

With the Patent Office’s Chairman sitting on the stage, no one would dare to complain about the exhibition being too long. Besides, there were many people among the audience that were feeling interested in Hearthstone.

The second match quickly began. In the best of three, Joshua also added the rule that each player must use three different classes.

Because of that, Desireless was unable to use Priest class again. He ended up choosing the class similar to Priest, the Paladin class.

As for Gray Mage, he chose a class never before seen in this world, Shaman!

When the hero representing Shaman, the orc Thrall, appeared on the projector screen, a new question was presented to the participants of the World Expo.

The orcs of this world were a nomadic group. They simply do not possess any set cities or towns. Even the Nation of Frost most familiar with orcs had never bothered to face the orcs face-on. They all believed the orcs to be a barbarous group of beings.

Thus, they were unable to accept the sudden appearance of an orc’s portrait on the World Expo, a place symbolizing the extent of human knowledge.

Ten minutes passed and the match ended. The outcome from the match astonished the crowd even more.

This was especially true for Messai. The class she believed to be the strongest, the Paladin class, actually lost to an orc! Furthermore, it was even a crushing defeat!

Gray Mage’s Shaman Thrall completely rolled over Desireless’s Paladin Uther.

Anyone who understood Hearthstone in the slightest could tell that the Paladin Uther was unable to fight back against the Shaman’s minions and elemental powers.

“You should blame the outcome on the draw of the cards.”1

Joshua was able to tell the female knight was unsatisfied with the outcome. The goddess of luck did not show any consideration for Desireless last round. Instead, she stood with the Gray Mage.

“My Lord will definitely protect my esteemed teacher in the next match!”

Messai does not believe in luck. She believed all of this to be the arrangement of her Lord.

Thus, as the female knight prayed sincerely for victory, the third match began.

This match would decide the outcome of the competition. Joshua felt that this match might be the most marvelous of the three.

The reason for that was because... the hero Desireless, the Archbishop from the Nation of the Holy Church, chose was... Gul’dan.

Gul’dan represented the class Warlock, a class associated with the demons!

Once Desireless chose Gul’dan as the hero for his third match, Messai who had been praying to her Lord the entire time was suddenly stunned.

As for the Gray Mage, his hero selection also caused a group of mages to be momentarily shocked. The reason for that was because he had chosen another orc, the Warrior Garrosh!

“Gul’dan versus Garrosh!”

“I am your nightmare!”

“Victory or Death!”

Gul’dan spoke the opening remark Joshua modified slightly. The third match became a match between two orcs.

Joshua took a glance at Desireless’s hand. He immediately determined Desireless to be playing a Zoolock deck and was slightly surprised.

As for the Gray Mage, his deck composition was even more surprising. In his opening hand were two Fiery War Axes and two Arcanite Reapers.1 It was clear that he had no intention to bring any minion along and was planning to attack his opponent’s face using his own hero Garrosh!

Having reached the third match, even the two respectful elders of high position were unable to calm their emotions. They’ve both chosen to attack their opponent’s face to quickly win the match.

“You can consider this to be a game,” Joshua quietly said to the female knight beside him.

The next moment, Desireless summoned a Flame Imp.1

Flame Imps were one of the lowest tier demons. They were also the most cruel of all demons. Flame Imps do not possess the concept of right and wrong. Their intelligence was akin to animals.

As for the Gray Mage, his action was even more simple. He pulled out the weapon Fiery War Axe. With a cry of ‘Lok’tar ogar!’ Garrosh raised the Fiery War Axe and chopped down on Desireless’s hero.

Momentarily, Joshua seemed to be able to see the scene of blood being splattered everywhere.

Even though both parties were playing aggro decks, the match was slower than Joshua imagined.

Archbishop Desireless summoned a great amount of demon minions to pose for a massive attack. But, Gray Mage remained calm at the sight. He took out the card ‘Brawl,’1 and made the minions attack each other. Then, he raised his Upgraded Arcanite Reaper2 and hacked down at Desireless.

The mages in the audience managed to thoroughly experience how fierce the orc warrior was. They found it very difficult to imagine that the person controlling that fierce orc warrior was their respected Gray Mage.

As the match continued, Desireless’s Warlock Gul’dan only had a single health remaining. Seeing that he was about to be defeated by the aged mage using four axes, he decided to use his final trump card.

The Archbishop chose to, without any hesitation, summon Warlock’s strongest demon, Lord Jaraxxus!1

“You face Jaraxxus, Eredar Lord of the Burning Legion!”

The effect of the Warlock’s strongest legendary minion Jaraxxus and his summoning line was incomparably tyrannic. After instantly destroying his summoner Gul’dan, he took over as the warlock hero.

After obtaining the help from the demon Jaraxxus, the Archbishop from the Nation of the Holy Church instantly turned the tide of the battle around. After only two turns, he started to dominate his opponent.

“INFERNO!”

Leading his Infernal Army, Lord Jaraxxus began to press the warrior Garrosh to a predicament.

But, the leader of the Council of Seven and one of the world’s greatest mage, the Gray Mage, did not panic. He drew the next card from his deck. It was a card that decided the outcome of this match.

The goddess of luck once again showed herself to him. The card he drew was the warrior’s strongest weapon, Gorehowl!1

The great Gray Mage raised Gorehowl and ferociously chopped down upon the wretched demon. With that one hit, the demon was killed and the outcome of the match settled!
