Chapter 170
"Well, have a look at that. Isn't this our strongest genius Sword Demon? How come you look so weak?" When Mike notices Alena teasing the Sword Demon, he slaps his brow. He intuitively knows why she did what she did.
But he hadn't expected her to be so audacious as to intentionally insult him.
'Why do I feel the need to be antagonistic?' Mike's heart was flushed with embarrassment when this thought occurred to him. Even though he stated that he doesn't care what she does, it was still inappropriate to tease him in this manner.
"I hope you don't enter my personal space like this, Miss Alena." Mike could only see his face plainly at this point. Sword Demon was a really attractive young man. His brows were arched and long, and his blue pupils sparkled.
He was tall and slim. Others could comprehend his plight better because of his white skin. But his chilly expression makes it even more difficult.
"Hehe! How can you put it like that? I am his girlfriend. Why should I bother entering your private sphere? I was only wondering if you looked a little weaker than when we fought." Alena smirked, adding salt to his wounds.
Her comments, however, immediately changed his mood. As he touched the hilt of his sword and murmured, "Then, would you like to test if I can kill you in a single strike or not?" a heavy killing intent flowed from his gaze.
Bang! Suddenly, a terrifying Slaughter Will erupts and collides with Sword Demon's Killing for a brief instant before dissipating.
Hiss!
After hearing his comments, the entire audience took in a chilly breath. Mike clenched his fist and squinted his eyes slightly. But he remained still calm. The fury in his eyes vanished as soon as it appeared. The impact lasted only a few seconds.
"Oey! Oey! Oey! Isn't this too much for you to say before the competition even begins?" Gloomy laughter broke forth. A man stepped out of the crowd gently. He had a crazy grin on his face. He was a tall, chiseled man with brown skin.
He was dressed in a black tracksuit. Everyone's attention was drawn to him when he talked. As he approached the center, he bowed his head slightly and murmured, "It appears Miss Alena is correct. You do appear to be frailer. Did our Sword Demon get harmed while practicing?"
Mike's brows furrowed slightly as he tried to remember his name. But he didn't have to consider much longer. When he arrived, the throng began to whisper.
"Hey, isn't he a Max Cena? Is he going to challenge Sword Demon?"
"Are you a moron? Do you believe they'll do anything stupid that will cost them points?"
"You are correct. But why did Sword Demon become so frail?"
"Is he sick or what?"
"Perhaps someone messed up his food."
'So he's Max Cena. He appears to be a difficult opponent to overcome.' Mike paused for a moment after hearing his name. He attempted to gauge Max's strength.
"Hey Mike, it appears that Alena will not be returning anytime soon. Should we become involved?" Olive leaned in closer and inquired. Tori also cast a glance towards him in response to his decision.
"Wait a minute! She is not a wild young lady. She must be motivated in some way." Mike groaned as he stroked his hair. He found it humorous that she was standing alongside two top geniuses.
When Alena spotted Max Cena, her smirk vanished and she responded with a phony smile, "I thought Mister Max would be with Silver King. I didn't expect you'd come out by yourself."
Max Cena's eyes furrowed for a split second before he smiled and said, "It appears Miss Alena has a wealth of information. No surprise, you could poison him."
"What?" Suddenly, the crowd erupted in a ferocious yell.
"Sword Demon was poisoned by her. However, why?
"Does it even qualify as a question? She had to have done it to make him weaker. How, though?"
"Perhaps she tainted his food or something."
"However, they don't have much of a relationship. Could it be a plot devised by God of Sex?"
"Damn you, you asshole! If you say that again, I'll cut your dick." When one of the girls heard those comments, she immediately released a homicidal intent on the guy and yelled.
"Yeah, God of Sex always fights valiantly. He would never do something like that." Another female backed her up, and she had a crush on Mike.
Mike's ears twitched when he heard that. He hadn't expected his reputation among the girls to be as good as it was. Unlike the previous stages, the fourth stage was only partially visible to the audience. They could see the battle or anything else outside the spaceship but not anything inside.
They had undoubtedly seen Mike vs. Sword Demon. And, as a result of that conflict, his reputation grew by a significant margin, particularly among females.
"It appears that Mister Cena is oblivious of some facts. With my strength, how could I poison him?" Alena spoke while making puppy eyes.
"Because he always lets his guard down when confronted with an inferior opponent." A man suddenly spoke to them as he walked towards them. He had silver hairs and silver pupils, so he knew who he was. He was the Man in Silver, Silver King, dressed in a silver jacket and silver shoes.
"And a weak person like her would not let this pass easily. After all, do weak people ever fight fairly?" A lovely voice rang accompanied by a lovely young lady. She was dressed in a flaming crimson gown. Her appearance was incredibly attractive and tall.
"It appears Thorn Princes enjoys speaking without thinking." When she talked, her eyes were filled with deep resentment and a desire to kill. Alena had no intention of forgetting her remark.
"Of course, I don't have to think about it. Even if you use everything you have, you will not be able to scratch him if he becomes serious. It's simply because you're weak. And you have no choice but to win with such a cheap trick." Thorn Princess mocked her with a cruel sneer on her face.
Then, all of a sudden, she sighed. "As expected, we cannot expect good from the weak. This tournament is not for people like you, Miss Alena. You should concentrate on your stupid family."
"You!!!" Alena came to a halt just as she was about to go insane. She took a peek at the man who was standing beside Thorn Princess. He stretches his arms out and places them on her shoulder.
"I believe you are mistaken. Weaknesses vary depending on the activity. She might be too feeble to fight." Mike put his arm across her shoulder. The entire battlefield was deafeningly quiet at this point. Everyone was wallowing in self-pity. Not only the participants but also the audience.
Mike also left the Emperors, who were watching the minor feud between the geniuses, stunted. Mad Beast Emperor wiped his eyes, trying to figure out if he was Mike or not.
Mike was releasing both Sex Aura and Hands of Pleasure at the same time. He also had complete control over it and had it focused solely on Thorn Princess. Mike stood close to the Thorn Princess, and the Silver King, Max Cena, and Sword Demon all narrowed their eyes.
"Be careful where you put your hands!" Thorn Princess' pupils moved to the right, turning a lethal red. Each syllable that came out of her mouth was as icy as ice. Mike continued just as she went forward without attacking him.
"However, she is powerful in bed. You, on the other hand, I'm sure you can't endure more than five minutes. Do you realize how weak you are now?" Suddenly, a mirror materialized on Mike's palm, which he held up to her face.
"With only a touch of mine, your face turns blood-red. How frail you are! What a shame! You are not my type because of your frailty."
Snap! Bang!
Suddenly, a jagged thorn protrudes from her flesh and lands on the ground. It was supposed to hit Mike, but with a snap of his finger, he had already moved aside. He appears next to Alena and says, "Let's go!"
Alena's dismal and sorrowful mood vanished as soon as she heard his remarks. She laughs and walks away, holding his hand. But then Mike turns back to Thorn Princess and says, "Whether in the battlefield or in bed, five minutes is all I need to make you submit."
"You!!!!" When Thorn Princess lifted her fist in rage and embarrassment, dozens of thorns appeared behind her. "You are allowing your fury to overtake you," said Silver King.
"This is the competition. Your goal is to reach the Divine Tomb. Every move you make will cost you points! So don't be hasty!" Max Cena glared at Mike's back and spoke.
Thorn Princess clenched her fist in rage as she heard his words. Those thorns vanished in an instant.
"Did I look cool?" Mike asks as he leans in close to her.
"You look fantastic." Alena laughed and hugged his arm. She suddenly rises to her toes and kisses him on the cheeks.
"Was that my recompense?" Mike asks as he rubs the spot where she kissed.
"Hehe! Tonight is the night for rewards." She moves her head slightly and whispers near her ears.
A man was standing at the top of the stage at the time. He was holding a piece of paper and a pen. The paper had only a few words written on it.
"Name- Mike Tyson
Points-......"
