Inventors system - Chapter 57: The Beach 1
The team was down to 9 members and was finally halfway through the games.
The next game arena they went to was the 6th game arena and it was supposed to be the hardest one they’ve faced so far.
The game arena was called “The beach” and when they got there that’s exactly what they saw.
It was a beautiful beach with sand and sea and they weren’t the only ones baffled by the sight, there were 2 other teams at the arena and one of them was an old acquaintance.
It was the team they met when they played in the 3rd game arena “Domino”. You’ve guessed it right it was the team of twin sisters Nea and Jia, but the team was greatly reduced in numbers and everyone looked quite haggard.
Learning from the previous experience they didn’t dare to come near Morana and bother their team but Nea was constantly glaring at the culprit of her sister’s death.
If looks could kill Morana would have died 1000 times now.
[Master that woman has been glaring at you the whole time.]
‘hmm. What woman?’
[Master the girl from the previous game.]
‘Girl? Never seen her in my life. Must be she fell in love with my beauty at first sight’ Said Morana to jolly with a straight face.
‘[Master I know you’ve never seen her in your life, YOU ARE BLIND after all, but how can you forget the girl whose sister you killed and even shamelessly claim she’s in love with you. That’s definitely a death glare she is giving you.]’ cried Jolly to himself not daring to correct his master.
Lucky for Nea she couldn’t hear this conversation or she would have died from a heart attack.
Morana’s whole attention was drawn to the sea, this game arena wasn’t just weird because of the sea, I mean it is after all called the beach and that is what it is exactly but the most peculiar thing about it was that the host of the game arena was nowhere to be seen.
But Morana couldn’t help feeling that something was watching them from the water, when she used her seer powers she was greatly overwhelmed by what she saw when looking at the sea and didn’t dare use this power here again.
The whole sea was like a living organism with overwhelming mana, but in that brief moment, she did notice that other beings were living in this ‘sea’ as well hiding in the cover of its mana.
Feeling her discomfort Samael couldn’t help asking.
‘What’s wrong?’
‘This place is very weird, especially that sea. It’s like the sea is a living organism, and mana is very overwhelming. Did you notice anything??’
‘Hmm. It should be a special affinity of someone, I’m not exactly sure but I’ve seen something like this before with other powers, it’s a very good way to hide.’
‘It’s time for you to participate in the games, be careful and be vigilant, this is the 6th game arena after all it should be the hardest one we’ve faced so far.’
‘Hmm. Little Rana, are you worried about me?’
‘Hmm.’ Her unenthusiastic answer brought Samael a little happiness but her next words as always threw him down the abyss.
‘If you die I will have to walk by myself, so try not to die.’
‘RanRan… sob…sob so cruel.’
Unfortunately, his heartfelt tears were turned into crocodile tears in Morana’s eyes and she straight up ignored him.
The next second her attention and everyone else’s went to the sea as a large wave started rising from it and it was growing at a fast speed.
Zoel was one of the first to react.
“Not good. Everyone get away from the beach, the wave is too big.”
Hearing his words others didn’t bother investigating what was going on, their survival skills kicked in and they quickly ran away from the sea.
The wave became so big that it shadowed even the sun, and suddenly a large mountain of water opened up in the middle, and a bright light came out from within.
It was so blinding that people had to close their eyes and didn’t dare open them until it subsided a bit.
A beautiful female silhouette could be seen coming out of the sea with a fishtail.
“A mermaid?” Someone finally explained and others also couldn’t help looking at the silhouette with shining eyes.
Merfolk were scarce and secretive, but everyone knows that they are blessed with great beauty so their sparkling eyes and interest were not surprising.
Unfortunately, as the light disappeared and they were able to see clearly their worldviews and expectations shattered.
What they saw wasn’t a beautiful mermaid they expected but
“A kid???” Sophia couldn’t help her confusion and muttered her question and everyone’s question out loud.
That’s right, it wasn’t a great and beautiful mermaid but a chubby kid that looked like a 7-year-old.
The worst part she wasn’t merfolk at all but a human kid wearing a fake tail. She even had the guts to pose in front of everyone and say
“Hahahaha… you all must be surprised to silence by my beauty. That’s right, I am the host of the 6th game arena.
Ahh, you want to know this beauty’s name?
Hmm. Too bad I won’t tell you.
Haha seeing you so miserable begin to know this great one’s name how can my kind and generous heart bear… I shall grant all you peasants a rare opportunity of knowing my name it’s Aurora.”
“…”
“…”
All the contestants right now couldn’t help but feel truly speechless at this kid’s shamelessness.
“Hmm. Why aren’t you speaking?
Ahh, you must have become speechless from the gratefulness.” Said the kit with a smug smile.
‘Gratefulness my ass, You shameless kid almost drowned all of us to create an epic entrance.’ were the thoughts of literally everyone.
