Gulped!

Instantly, Enos gulped down a mouthful of saliva while his forehead begun sweating profusely in nervousness and fear for his life.

On the other hand, Emir, Dominic, Faye, and their other allies, and including the three players from the weakest alliance, swiftly put their hands on their respective weapons to prepare for whatever action Edgar Pierce and his alliance would do next.

At this moment, they don’t care about whatever Edgar Pierce will do to Enos anymore, even if he kills him just like he had said he would. They couldn’t care any less for the latter’s life as they are also worrying for their own lives, as well.

Initially, they were pretty confident with their position, thinking that the table had wholly turned in their favor this time around.

However, right now, especially after seeing just how fast Edgar Pierce had moved from his previous location to the front of Enos, they don’t dare confidently claim that defeating the alliance of the major Noble Households would be as easy as what they have expected. As a matter of fact, even if their two alliance works together, there is no telling for sure yet whether they could really win the fight against the alliance of the major Noble Households with Edgar Pierce on their side.

Emir, Dominic, and Faye, the three geniuses trained by the Cross Blade Guild, Flying Hammer Guild, and Light Magic Guild, respectively, aren’t excepted from such emotions. Even though they know that they could still stand toe to toe against Edgar Pierce with their capability, that will only be the case in a one versus one fight.

As for(#of) right now, that is less likely to happen with Eme Clarity and Eben Nero also present in the scene. Evidently, these two wouldn’t just stand there and watch Edgar Pierce fight one of them, as they would certainly each also choose one of the remaining geniuses from the alliance of the major independent Guilds. By that time, they can no longer carry and assist their allies anymore, which means to say that they would have to fend for themselves.

Though fighting against Edgar Pierce, Eme Clarity, and Eben Nero doesn’t necessarily mean that the three of them will get eliminated in the Survival Games, it is still absolutely not what they wanted to happen nonetheless.

Why? Simple; that’s because it would mean that they can no longer use their allies to eliminate their biggest threat in the fifth game of the Emerald Elven Battle Competition.

Unbeknownst to all the members of the alliance of the major independent Guilds. Right from the start, the main and only reason why Emir, Dominic, and Faye had to choose to create and stick together with their alliance is only because they wanted to use them to defeat their major competitors in becoming the champion, specifically Edgar Pierce, Eme Clarity, and Eben Nero. As long as they could eliminate these three people in the Survival Games, or at the very least eliminate two of them, then they are positive to say that they could win easily in the Emerald Elven Battle Competition and become champion. It doesn’t even matter who amongst the three of them will win, as the Guild of the other two could still receive prizes due to the agreement signed by the three major independent Guilds before the start of the Emerald Elven Battle Competition.

Needless to say, Guild Leader Loki, Elmont, and Osborne were supposedly also included in their plan. But since they are already eliminated, then their only problems remaining are Edgar Pierce, Eme Clarity, and Eben Nero.

That is the reason why they can’t afford to have a one versus one fight. Because by doing that, it would be the same as giving Edgar Pierce, Eme Clarity, and Eben Nero a guaranteed entry to the fifth game of the Emerald Elven Battle Competition.

To everyone’s relief, Edgar Pierce pulled his sword away while saying to Enos, “So, I suggest that we keep decency in our conversation and don’t go around insulting and being vulgar to everyone, because honestly speaking, that is not a behavior of a person from the respectable Elf race. Do we have an agreement here?”

“Ye… Yes, I agree, your grace, Edgar Pierce…” Enos can’t help heaving a sigh of relief after knowing that Edgar Pierce doesn’t plan on killing him, at least not yet, considering how he had insulted the latter just now.

“Good! Now, let’s continue with where we stopped in our conversation a while ago,” Edgar Pierce changed the topic. He then continued, “Just like what I have previously said, your choice, Enos, is good, and it is also the best choice to choose from. I am not offended by it, nor do I hate you for choosing their alliance instead of us. After all, each one of us has our own interest, and it is never wrong to prioritize that,”

“However, besides that point, the real reason why I am saying all of this to you is that the end goal of this battle of alliances is not to prove who’s alliance is stronger? But rather who will be participating in the fifth game of the Emerald Elven Battle Competition,” Edgar Pierce said before looking at everyone. He explained, “To cut everything short, aside from me, Eme Clarity, Eben Nero, Emir, Dominic, and Faye, the rest of you will have to share the four remaining slots to participate in the fifth game,”

“I think that there is no need for me to explain what I mean since it is pretty obvious already that none of you can defeat any of the six of us in a one versus one fight. As such, it is only natural that the six of us will automatically have a slot each,” Edgar Pierce paused as he pointed his sword once again to Enos’ neck and saying, “Otherwise, I don’t have any problem proving my point to all of you,”

Seeing that their plan would no doubt be ruined if Edgar Pierce indeed continue with what he is doing right now, Emir quickly interrupted, “That’s ridiculous! Everyone present here should have a fair chance to participate in the fifth game! So what gives you the right to strip that away from them?!”

“What gives me the right?” Edgar Pierce smirked before replying, “Isn’t that obvious already?”

Whoooosh!
