Sword Among Us Chapter 535 – Silver Wolf’s First Person Point of View
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
*Beep!*
Happy hung up the call, then had Silver Wolf operate his computer and upload the battle replay to the system while also linking it to his bank account number. The official developers quickly examined and verified his battle replay, then they gave Silver Wolf a rather suitable price—50 RMB!
“Let me be your first buyer.”
When Silver Wolf left the base, Happy quickly went to the official website and found the title that the official website had given for Silver Wolf. It was very amusing.
[Who Can Receive One Emperor’s Fourth Slash? Silver Wolf! Experience Silver Wolf’s Quick Fight!]
But what surprised Happy was that when the battle replay came out, it was pushed to the most eye-catching part on the official website, and Silver Wolf as well as One Emperor’s images swiftly appeared on the main page.
It was as expected of the manager of the pay-to-view system. He knew of the battle replay’s great potential, along with the way to sell it. At the same time, he had learned from Happy’s words that there was a possibility that it might soon be replaced by another, which was why he used every method at his disposal to advertise Silver Wolf’s battle replay and put it on the market.
While dazed, Happy saw that the number of purchases for the battle replay swiftly hit the thousands. The buyer count was increasing madly, and it was so fast that it left people dumbfounded.
Happy did not dare to be idle anymore. He quickly put the battle replay into the cart, and once he was certain he paid for it, he swiftly shut down his computer, laid on his bed, and put on his helmet.
He went to the options menu in the game and chose “experience”.
GO!
His field of vision changed, and he quickly noticed that he had appeared in an arena. One Emperor’s familiar figure appeared in his sight, and both of them were surrounded by lively martial artists. There were a lot of onlookers.
But the image of the people in the area was rather blurry. Clearly, Silver Wolf had focused his entire attention on One Emperor. He did not dare to be inattentive.
Once the duo got ready to fight, Happy quickly noticed that his body had tensed up, and he shot forward, then ingeniously avoided One Emperor’s first slash.

While Happy was trying to experience it in detail, the second slash came charging over!
Soon, the third slash came, then black light flashed. Happy only sensed several fierce sword wills rise before Silver Wolf was rescued by someone, and the battle ended.
*****
When Happy returned to the options menu, he opened his eyes and ran through everything he had experienced just then in his head as if he was playing a movie. He frowned before he returned to Silver Wolf’s point of view to experience it again.
This time, he was completely unbothered by the first two slashes. He just focused on sensing One Emperor’s third and fourth slashes.
The third slash was a sword curtain.
But multiple sword wills appeared during the fourth slash.
Happy watched it repeatedly. He repeated it more than ten times before he finally gained something out of it. He understood the momentum behind One Emperor’s two subsequent slashes and their greatness, but it was difficult to figure out how he could avoid them.
As of then, Happy was only certain that he could only avoid three moves from One Emperor.
The first slash was easy.
The second slash was a little difficult, but if he relied on the dodging effect of Petite Dragon, there was a great chance that he could do it.
The third slash was a sword curtain, and from One Emperor’s actions, he could tell that the time needed to execute this slash was rather long. He should be able to get through it based on Silver Wolf’s method.
But the fourth slash seemed to be a chain attack, and it was very troublesome!
It had a dazzling black light, there were multiple traps in the sword wills’ attacks, and they also changed a lot of times. When they were released, they could be considered to be a killing move.
Happy did not have full confidence that he could escape unscathed from One Emperor’s fourth slash or even counterattack!
But if he could draw out the distance between the execution of the first three slashes, he was fully confident that One Emperor would not have the chance to launch his fourth slash.
And once he got close to One Emperor, the situation would be completely different!
*****
Happy’s in-game character was still sitting by the table when he returned to the game, but a snow-white messenger pigeon had appeared in front of him. It cuckooed on the table while it stared at him with black, beady eyes. There was a thin bamboo tube tied to its leg.

[I’ll be waiting for you at Dragon Tiger Arena.]
The person who sent the messenger pigeon was One Emperor!
The challenge letter had arrived.
Happy’s expression remained the same. He calmly tore apart the letter before he got up as composed as before and jumped to the street outside the restaurant. However, he did not go to challenge the second arena on that street. Instead, he joined the crowd, then headed into an alley and went to another street.
*****
Soon, a strange trend was noticed in Hero’s Mountain Villa.
Happy appeared in the arenas of many streets.
Ever since the second arena, Happy never used a sword but switched to Golden Gloves. Many elites were quickly defeated when they ran into him. Only a few were capable of withstanding up to two of his moves.
After One Emperor, Happy rose to fame through close-quarter combat, and he quickly brought forth a trend of people targeting other people’s weaknesses when they fought! Many people discussed and said that as of then, there were very few people who could withstand even two blows from Happy.
Basically, whenever Happy attacked, it would always be with a grip that tore at his opponent’s throat. This move made it difficult for players to fend against it even if they wanted to. The members from Towering Palace, Cold Moon Palace, and the disciples from the six great sects were all defeated by Happy and forced to return to the arena outside and continue fighting!
He advanced together with One Emperor, who had searched for elites everywhere to challenge and defeated Lin Xiao, Silver Wolf, Red Dust, and the others. They were both showing signs that they wanted to fight against each other to know who was the stronger among the two!
“Happy, what a man you are.”
One Emperor had been waiting outside Dragon Tiger Arena for a long time, so it was only natural that he heard the rumors about Happy and what he was doing. He smiled faintly in the crowd but did nothing about it.
Up to then, One Emperor did not show any signs that he wanted to attack. He just watched an eminent monk from Shaolin Temple who was an expert with Dragon Claw fight to his hearts’ content against Immortal Luo Xia of Ancient Tomb Sect, and his heart was as calm as water.
Most of the people who could go up the arena were in Inaction Realm, so it was very difficult for anyone to be able to win. It was the same case for One Emperor, so he did not wish for his skills and his trump card to be seen by everyone.
The only thing he looked forward to right then was Happy.
He hoped that he could see Happy appear on Dragon Tiger Arena.
He wanted to meet the top ranked player on Famous People Rank after they parted ways for more than three months and see whether he was as durable as rumors had it. Perhaps he could even force him to use his fifth slash!
*****
Dragon Tiger Arena was different from the arenas outside.
It was actually a gigantic martial arts training field situated at the center of Hero’s Mountain Villa, and there were plenty of sheds built around it to provide shade. They were there for the sect leaders and famous martial artists from various sects to sit and watch the fights.
To the eastmost of Dragon Tiger Arena were the sect leaders from the six sects, the sect leaders from the Five Mountain Sword Sect Alliance, the sect master of Beggar’s Sect, the cult master of Ming Cult, and the villa master of Hero’s Mountain Villa.
They made comments about the four pairs of martial artists fighting fiercely in the arena and nodded nonstop.
“They say that all martial arts in the world originate from Shaolin Temple, and Shaolin Temple’s Dragon Claw does live up to its name. He has won thirteen fights consecutively. Master Kong Xiang, congratulations.”
“Villa master, you praise me too much.” Shaolin Temple’s Abbot Kong Xiang smiled faintly and pushed his palms together. “Shaolin Temple’s martial arts are just techniques that strengthen the body, so there is no way that they can capture the attention of the heroes of the world.
“We are merely showing some of our modest martial arts to induce people to come forward and learn from us. Young Patron Zhang Wuji of Ming Cult is the real elite. Why don’t you go up there and provide him some guidance, Cult Master Zhang?”
“If that is the case, I will obey your wishes to show you my respect.”
Zhang Wuji cast a glance at his otherworldly grandmaster. When he saw that there were no objections, he jumped and landed in the arena.

Stairway to Heaven
Humans are complicated, awfully fragile beings, far too weak to survive amid the other extraterrestrials that lie dormant across the galaxies. Instead of physical altercations, they would rather engage in verbal abuse, breaking an individual's psyche as a hobby. They excel at deception and manipulation, far too interested in bringing their brothers and sisters down and reaching for the top of their self-made hierarchies. Beyond their questionable nature and moral compasses, they long to find meaning in their lives and put names to the feelings that drive each passing moment. They are insatiable—far too greedy for more knowledge and a supposed understanding of their lives. It's pitiable, really, the way they struggle to find themselves while ravaging their kind through petty wars and conflicts built off of misunderstanding. Humans are complicated, awfully fragile beings. They created words and languages to fill the holes that lived inside their souls, desperate for ways to find meaning in their incredibly short lifespans. They'll waste their entire lives trying to find their so-called passions and reasons for living, acting as if they truly rule the way their lives go, supposed "controllers of their own destiny." Yet, they cannot evade the inevitable visit from death, who stands next to them, ticking the seconds down until their demise.

Campaign: A Project Starfarer Sidestory
This novel’s lore, story and characters are entirely fictitious. Certain long-standing countries, institutions, organizations, agencies, and public offices are mentioned, but their histories and the characters involved are wholly imaginary. "What will you do with your freedom?"Growing up in a meritocracy, infamous for being lawless, Jordan Astros had been repeatedly asked this question, since times unmemorable. In a society where one's accomplishments and skills were tallied and ranked in order to determine one's standard of living however, Jordan quickly grew to understand that 'freedom,' was a reward earned by accumulating Merit. And so, after his 17th birthday, Jordan departed his Clan's habitat in orbit of Europa to embark on his century-long journey to rise from E-Ranker to S-Rank. And spread his name throughout the Galilean Powers. *** Campaign is a sidestory within its NanoPunk parent series, Project Starfarer. (Yet to be published. Be on the lookout for it!) In which the first transhuman known to humanity, the Starfarer, invokes a plan to seed terrestrial life throughout the galaxy. Campaign takes place around the middle of that timeline and explores the life of a key figure in that universe, Jordan Astros. And explores one of four great nations thriving in the Solar System during that time. A Meritocracy that spans Jupiter and its 79 moons, The Galilean Powers. What you'll find in Campaign: Brutal melee combat in airless and pressurized low gravity environments. A technology based progression system influenced by merit and accomplishments; using tech that's theoretically possible to exist in the near-future. An exploratory perspective of the dozens of Galilean societies, or 'Powers,' from Jordans; and sometimes others', POV. What you wont find: Romance. Harems. An MC who receives shortcuts, handouts, learns things unnaturally fast or has OP plot armor. Jordan is not a special individual. Jordan is not OP and he likely never will be. He's no different than any other citizen in the Galilean Powers and will certainly face as many defeats as he does wins. He'll suffer losses and grow as an individual, while the Powers evolves around him as well. This is semi-hard sci-fi/NanoPunk and takes place in a fictional version of our future solar system. Centered around technology that's plausible in the near-centuries to come. Everything abides by the laws of physics/thermodynamics (As best that I understand them, at least. I'm no scientist.) No artificial gravity, inertial dampeners, teleportation, FTL, or hand-wavy materials will be found in the Project Starfarer universe. Just advanced automation, nanotechnology, cybernetics and AI. Set in the backdrop of space. *I do not own the photo used for the cover*
