Child of Destiny

....

Silence enveloped everyone for quite a while, lasting until Chaotic Luck disappeared from the battle arena and got sent back to the lounge where the participants were staying.

But it did not last that long as everyone was able to quickly recover themselves.

BOOM!

An uproar immediately erupted as those in the live audience were unable to suppress their shock, excitement, conflict, and every other feeling that they had.

Their shout resounded in the entire stand, almost shaking the entire place. It was like a thunder that exploded in the sky, shaking the heavens.

The online viewers did not let themselves get outclassed as they flooded the live chat with reactions, reflecting their current feelings. Emojis, texts, and any other form of expression flashed through the chat panel.

Everything was moving fast to the point that the site almost crashed by the flood of messages coming from hundreds of millions, if not billions, of viewers.

Even Miss Bunny was unable to regain her composure as she was unable to believe what just had happened.

If not for David, who remained calm since the very beginning, ’waking’ her up, then she would take quite a long time before she could recover.

…

Meanwhile, in the lounge where the Empyrean Talons were currently staying, Chaotic Luck was immediately greeted by his teammates.

"Not bad," said Alucard as he patted the latter’s shoulder.

"That is an awesome fight!" said Huahua in full excitement. Her eyes were also filled with adoration, seemingly finding yet another idol. She ’learned’ under Chaotic Luck for quite some time, learning his style and tactics on how to maneuver an entire army, so he was half of a teacher for her.

"I never doubt you (your luck) even a bit," nodded Leonard from the sofa at the corner of the room.

"It seems like extra training is not needed," chuckled Shin as he walked over.

The rest of the team also congratulated Chaotic Luck for winning his debut fight. Even if he was somewhat ashamed of the ending of the battle, a win was still a win, so he would take it regardless.

But Shin and the rest of the top contenders of the team did not dwell too much on this win as they knew that it was still far from a complete victory. They quickly recovered themselves before turning to the next repetition for the next Single Match.

Akailu, who was chosen to be the second representative of the team, slowly rose from his seat. He was meditating earlier to condition his mind and body.

He was not a stranger to this as he was a Titled Ranker himself. He had participated in multiple tournaments already, so he no longer felt any nervousness. Anxiety was unavoidable, but it was not that serious. Moreover, being a little anxious was not necessarily a bad thing.

"I’m going," he said to the others while nodding at them.

He then pressed the accept button floating before him, which was the invitation of the system.

Swoosh!

Not long after, Akailu disappeared from the room and got sent to the battle arena.

…

The chosen arena was still the same Forest Swamp as it was what the Seven Seas Alliance wanted. Their next representative was also very familiar with this map as it was one of the arenas that they used for their regular sparing matches within the team.

This time, the one representing the Seven Seas Alliance was a player from a Human Race and taking the Summoner Class. His class was branched from the Summoner Class called Spirit Caller, a Tier 3 Ascended Class.

This match was going to be more interesting from the eyes of many as it was a matchup between a Tamer Class and a Summoner Class.

Moreover, both combatants were well-known Titled Rankers. Neither of them ranked that high in the previously released Rankers List issued by the Mystery Pavillion, but that did not mean they were weak.

It just happened that neither of these two was too active in spreading their fame as they focused more on improving themselves.

Not long after, the system finally announced the start of the second match of the round.

– "First Round: Single Match – ’Peerless Summoner’ Vendetta (Peak Titled Ranker) vs ’Beastmaster’ Akailu (Peak Titled Ranker) –

One was a summoner of spirits while the other was a trainer of beasts and monsters – such a matchup was indeed interesting for the people.

…

Right after receiving the signal from the system, both sides immediately made their moves.

Akailu took the more standard route as he summoned a huge eagle that flew in the sky and surveyed the surroundings along with a group of slender and nimble wolves that scattered in every direction to scout.

His current race was still a subrace of the Beastmen Race, but it was a little different compared to his original Bearkin which was known to most of the people.

When he passed his Tier 3 Promotion Quest, his race took a massive transformation, especially when he first underwent special training from a high-ranking Mysterious Instructor who specially designed a unique training routine just for him.

The combat state that he had felt to be the most perfect style for him was the Perfect Demonification, which was a specially designed technique by mimicking the bodies of the monstrous beasts in the real world and recreating them inside the game.

This was the most suitable combat state for him, especially when his style of combat mostly involved monsters, particularly when he fused with them.

After everything, his race became an Ascended Race that seemed to be formed after fusing multiple types of beasts, creating a hybrid race that could carry the different features of multiple beasts when necessary.

It was different from the Druids, which were both a race and a class at the same time. But it still shared a great deal of similarities, particularly in the same physical features.

His upper body seemed to be the body of a tiger with the waist of a bear. He also had a pair of antlers on his head while the corners of his eyes were highlighted by some reptilian scales.

His lower body was still of a human, but they were slightly thicker and more muscular. It perfectly matched his upper body, making his overall features to be somewhat fierce and intimidating.

His arms, which were covered with furs also had a mysterious jade tattoo that was extending up to his chest area and back, which was somewhat forming a pattern of wings.

This race was called Dýr while his class was called Spirit Beastmaster, which greatly complemented his current Ranker’s Title.

…

On the other hand, the opposite side sent Vendetta, a well-known summoner since the start of his career as a professional gamer.

He had won quite a few titles under his belt when he started, although most of the competitions that he had participated in were only meant for Rankers. Regardless, he was still crowned a champion during those times.

He was still regularly participating in these tournaments until he was recruited by the Seven Seas Alliance and became one of their key players.

His style was quite distinct and easy to recognize as he was one of the pioneers when it came to creating unique combat styles meant for summoners.

He was not as famous as those Godlike Summoners and Necromancers such as Immortal, the Lich God. But he still had a solid reputation and had a decent number of supporters.

He was quite old as well as he was already in his early thirties this year, but his passion for playing games was still as strong as ever. Moreover, he was a wage earner with a decent salary, so why he would stop when he could make the game his job?

He was neither a martial artist nor a mentalist in the real world, so he would not be able to find a decent job there, especially when he was only an undergraduate person.

Playing games was the only thing he was good at, which was why he regularly participated in any competition that he found. He could win a decent amount of money from the prizes while accepting some commissions in the game as a mercenary.

He was a respected veteran, which was why he was widely accepted in any job. This was also the reason why a lot of people were shocked when he joined the Seven Seas Alliance, especially when he was doing quite well at being a mercenary.

Just like Akailu, Vendetta summoned his spirits one after another before issuing an order to spread in every direction.

But at the same time, he had also started setting up a battle formation for the rest of his Spirit Warriors and Avatars as he felt that the battle would start not long after.

After Himura’s loss from the previous match, Vendetta did not dare to take this round easy. He put a lot of importance on this match, especially when their big boss was giving them a lot of pressure.

He could not afford to lose miserably, especially when he was facing a Titled Ranker much younger than him.

A powerful opponent with a similar style as him – aside from the slight pressure from their boss, Vendetta also felt a little excited as it had been a while since he last partook in a professional tournament.

He knew that he never got rust as he regularly fought with some old friends and grind in the ladder at the Divine Colosseum, but he was not confident that he would be able to wind this battle that easily, especially after what happened at the previous round.
