SSS SKILL: DUPLICATE

Chapter 216  Movement in the Dark(2)



216  Movement in the Dark(2)

Under an insconspicous part of the city, there was a hidden arena surrounded by many seats. There were underground cells with magic beasts and even humans that had magic chains. A man with gray hair and long tongue was standing at the center of the arena while grinning at the men and women with torn clothes and scars. The man's name was Basil. He was a high-ranking member of the Poison Guild in charge of the underground arena.

"Hahahaha, aren't you all bored that there were no shows?" asked Basil.

The men and women looked at Basil with anger as they gripped their fists and gritted their teeth.

"I guess not," said Basil with a big grin. "I am bored, so I want to play, but in exchange for your participation, I will give freedom to someone who can injure me."

He cast magic, then his body transformed. He transformed into a five-meter-tall basilisk. The sand on the arena suddenly rose and was moving around him.

"But, can you injure me?" asked Basil with a chuckle.

"Hahahaha, boss, how could you be so cruel?! You gave them hope, but you immediately crushed it!" shouted a man standing on top of the arena's wall. There were other guild members standing on top of the wall to prevent the escape of the prisoners. They were laughing when they heard the man's shout. They threw weapons like swords, ax, daggers and spears to the arena. The weapons stabbed the sand near the prisoners.

"Ants! Take them or else you all will imediately die against the boss hahahaha!"

Near a restricted area, there was a main stronghold of the guild. There were two men within a hangar who were looking at the three attack helicopters. One of them was wearing a camouflage shirt and pants. His name was Jargo. He had black hair and a wound scar on his mouth. He was a high-ranking guild member and the commander of the stronghold.

He held the cigarette in his mouth."These are just toys, but it was still difficult to buy them."

The other man, named Flore, chuckled. He was wearing a gas mask that covered half of his face. He was the leader of the guild's scouts."To our level, they are just toys, but for political leaders, they are lethal weapons. The manufacturers and the men behind them are definitely careful because it might lead to an issue that will be used against them. Heads will roll if that happens."

"Hahahaha, that was the situation before, but it is now different. I heard that Mason arranged everything. He was indicating that he could support us with anything that we need in case we plan on doing something," said Jargo with a smile.

Flore also smiled."His chess piece in the country failed. He could not control us, but he can instigate us. He was not hiding his intention, but we can gladly accept his help. It is still up to us if we move or not."

Jargo smoked his cigarette."I'm sure the boss will move once he has a power that Viel cannot stop. Agusto is lucky that he has a powerful heir under his command."

"Will it be fine? The country seems to be backed by someone."

Jargo chuckled."They won't be able to do anything if we quickly move. We just need to remove the leaders, then offer a better condition to that country."

Flore frowned when he heard it."Aren't we going to become enemies with the families if we do that? One of that country's goals should be developing a piece against the families."

"It's just a delaying tactic until we control our country. We will secretly make negotiations with the families. They and Death Guild will support us. That country will not have a choice but to make a compromise," said Jargo with a smile.

Flore also smiled."That is a good plan. When did the boss mention the plan to you?"

"We briefly talked about it before. The plan is still rough. There are many details we need to add and there are flaws that need to be solved. We will have a meeting about it later. Let's go back. I still have some matters to do," said Jargo. Flore nodded, then they moved outside the hangar.

There were buildings near the hangar, and they did not notice that there was someone hiding in the shadows. Gin stood up while he was covered with a shadow cloak.

In the morning, the semi-finals of the Monark Tournament had begun. Edgar and Yuto were standing on the stage.

"What exciting fights! Poison Guild did not make a mistake in inviting powerful members of guilds around the world! Every penny that the audience paid is not wasted! Am I right?!" shouted the host.

"YEEEAH!" answered the audience.

"The tournament is nearing its end, but who will reach the finals?! Can they keep their lives or can they keep their whole body?! Look, Yuto seems thirsty for blood. Hahahaha, Iceman might have touched his nerve."

There were audience shouting at the stage.

"Yuto, I bet all my money on you! Cut Iceman into pieces!"

"Iceman! Turned him into ice! Keep the grin on his face! Hahahaha!"

Yuto had a bigger grin when he heard the shouts of some of the audience."Careless bastards. I hope they are still on the island when the fight ends."

The top of the arena's center was opened, but there were roofs above the audience seat. There were huge screens that were hanging on the ceiling.  Yuto's words were recorded by the drone and shown on the screens. His words sent chills down their spines. Those who insulted him got up from their seats and quickly ran away.

"Fufufufu, they are not as dumb as I thought," said Yuto when he saw some of the audience members who were running away, then he stared at Edgar. "It seems they do not have confidence in you, so they chose to run away. Your neck seems whiter. It's good that you followed my advice to wash your neck, fufufufu."

He crossed his arms. Figurines came out of his storage space and appeared between his fingers."You should have washed all your body because your limbs will be cut or holes will appear in your body before your head is cut."

MAGIC ART: ANIMATION

He threw the figurines into the air, then a huge circle appeared in each figurine. The circle moved up and the figurines turned into giants.

Boom! Three five-meter-tall white metal knights and scorpions landed on the stage.

Flap! Yuto landed on the back of a huge scorpion. He cast magic, then wind energy covered the scorpion.

Edgar smiled and cast magic. He activated his duplicate skill, then a huge circle appeared on the floor. Three ice-armored yetis with two horns rose from the circle."I hope your toys can last a long time and will not break like glass."

His words caused the blood vessels on Yuto's forehead to bulge.

Yuto grinned."Iceman, I can still let you go if you leave your arms and move down the stage now. If you don't, I will make sure to tear you into pieces."
