Wrath!
I didn't want to use it. It was never a good thing to catch Bento's or his lackeys attention. But there was no other choice.
"Ugh!"
The intense light that spread from where Kael Vi-rel was and began to driving away the evil darkness that engulfed the surroundings.
[Glowing beads (rare consumables)]
Description: Drive away the darkness with intense light. Even in bright places, the light is enough to blind the enemy's eyes for a while.
This was not magic. The power' is performed by the system itself. This darkness' may be their ability, but the phrase drives out the darkness means that it has an upper hand compared to Bento's ability. In addition, if it is of the same rare' grade, the system has the upper hand.
Bright!
It was a very intense light. The enemy in front of him was blinded and those who were far away also could not open their eyes properly.
But the the problem increase more.
-The main evil' character Bento' is looking at you.
Shows interest in you.
-[True Scan] is activated!
Reading Bento's thoughts.
-Your use of magic', power of light, and swordsmanship' stimulated his desires!
"Damn it!"
I hate these phrases more than the enemy right in front of me. That guy gets excited when he sees a strong opponent. Are you angry?
-You have been targeted by the main evil' character.
You've earned 60 Games points!
This was good. But at the price of his life being threatened was not good. Kael Vi-rel stabbed and killed the guy right in front of him.
At the same time, the effect of babban equipment also ran out. The power left his body, and his eyes became blurry. Still, he held on to his spirit. It was thanks to the thought that if he lost my mind here, it would be the end.
I really can't move even one fingertip, it looks like I have reach my limit.'
But he stayed conscious. Barely.
Hwareuk.
Bento on the other side disappeared into the darkness and he appeared in front of Kael Vi-rel. He felt a chill on his skin and his joints became stiff. He wasn't that scared when it was in the game, but what is now the problem now kael Vi-rel knew this is now his reality any wrong move and he his dead.
At that time, Selene Whitmore, who was behind the Bento, approached cautiously.
no!'
I wanted to scream right away, but I couldn't I didn't want to allow bento know about her.
The moment Selene Whitmore trys to attacks Bento, her head would go flying even if it is a surprise attack, the result will not be different. She will no matter what end Dead.
hook.
Kael Vi-rel was looking at Bento when wind suddenly blew.
"Ha ha ha ha ha! ah ha ha! It's fun."
Bento retrieved the sword that was brought to Kael Vi-rel's neck. I was supposed to kill you for killing my men and spoiling our plan but I won't.
"Fun. I hope you will be more stronger the next time we see you."
Bento disappeared again from the spot. Dozens of security guards were seen running into the casino from the entrance.
what happened just now?'
Bento's actions, where did the sword come from? No, when did it touch your neck and when did he retrieved it?
Kael Vi-rel wasn't even able to notice it at all. He was worried but at the same time, the rewards that he got were enormous.

Midnight.
As the moon faded into the night sky, security personnel dealt with the aftermath. Injured guests were rushed to the nearest hospital while the rest evacuated the casino in a hurry.
"Time for me to get out of here."
"Where are you going, Kael Vi-rel?"
Kael Vi-rel turned around briefly.
"I'm heading back to the dorm. I've got nothing else to do here. See you."
"Huh..."
Selene Whitmore's (POV)
She sat in silence, her mind spiraling.
"Why... why do I keep thinking about what happened? I can't get it out of my head."
These kinds of incidents weren't rare but something was different this time.
Kael Vi-rel.
A strange candidate who somehow took first place during the practical exam.
"It is what it is... so why?"
Was it because he helped her during the crisis? Or because he didn't flinch when that evil man tried to kill him?
No… it was something else.
She didn't realize it yet, but Kael Vi-rel's actions had already begun to change her.
For the first time, someone had stepped in to protect her.
"Stay here until you can see again."
Kael Vi-rel had said that as he stood protectively between her and the enemy.
Her cheeks flushed.
"Aagh! This is so annoying!"
Was it because she wanted something from him? What was this feeling?
Frustrated, Selene Whitmore stood abruptly. She grabbed a dagger from her table and hurled it across the room. It flew straight into the pillow sitting on a nearby chair, piercing it cleanly.
"Anything that disturbs me... must be killed."
She narrowed her eyes.
"I can't confront him directly he did finish first during the practical exam. So… I'll just have to assassinate him."
Her lips curled into a cold smile.
"That's right. From today onward, my target is Kael Vi-rel. First, I must make sure I don't lose sight of him. No matter what."
