Announcer: Next up is, Romeo from Elune vs Cecily from Zengoku!
--- Chapter 97 ---
Cecily: You’re going down, Romeo was it? Doesn’t matter.
Romeo: Ouch, such harsh words from the woman about to lose.
Cecily: It seems we are both confident in our skills. This should be more entertaining than I had thought.
Romeo: Do you know that Elune has a group of skilled mages that perform scouting, espionage, and the like?
Cecily: No, and I don’t really care either.
Romeo: Well you should as I’m on that team. Normally the team is S ranks and higher only, but they made an exception for me.
Cecily: Is that so?
Romeo: Yup, so I won’t hold back because my Amelia is watching. Amelia! I’m sorry! I have to use my boyish charm on another woman! I hope you can forgive me!
Amelia lowers her head in embarrassment, Elias turns his head and laughs at her quietly.
Cecily: Boyish charm? Who would fall for that haha!
Romeo draws his sword with a smile.
Romeo: Listen, look around.
Cecily looks at the crowd, a lot of women seem to swoon for him. She looks confused.
Romeo: My arcana, Lovers Aura is always active. Women without arcanas are just naturally attracted to me and would do anything for me if I asked.
Cecily: That arcana… Is useless against me! While I admit it is a strong ability, but I have an arcana, so all you have is that sword!
Romeo: And that’s all I need.
He says with a smile. He unsheaths the blade and dashes in at an incredible pace
Cecily: So quick!
Romeo stabs forward, slicing her arm slightly, keeping the blade a centimeter in her body.
Cecily: What the! Heh, why didn’t you aim for something better like the head or chest haha!

Romeo: Because it’s not necessary, I already won.
Cecily: Right, a little paper cut like that-
Her eyes go wide. The blade is glowing a dull red.
Romeo: My blade while even slightly piercing the flesh of someone seals their arcana.
Her body stands at ease.
Romeo: I apologize, but can you forfeit.
Cecily: Of course, anything for you. I forfeit.
He removes the blade and she blinks her eyes back into reason. And shock runs through her body.
Announcer: And that makes two forfeits in a row! How incredible! What a scary power indeed!
Cecily: You!
Romeo: I told you, I can’t look bad in front of Mrs. Amelia. If I can do something that is.
Cecily has an angry look, and storms off the stage. Romeo looks into the crowd, smiles, and returns to the room. In the stands, Elias turns to face Ame.
Elias: You know, I don’t think he’s joking around anymore.
Ame: Yah.
Announcer: OK! Next up is Schneli from academy vs. -
The rumbling of papers is heard as if he is rereading and checking his roster.
Announcer: Uh, Super Ultimate Mega Hero Godslayer The 3rd from academy! Is that his real name?

The Faction Contributor [Sci-Fi LitRPG]
While casually studying for his upcoming university exam, Aven suddenly felt the world around him start warping. It started with flashes of light appearing from nowhere, quickly escalating into his whole world becoming an absolute mess of flickering pixels and chaotic color flows, as if reality had become a malfunctioning glitched screen. What he could recognize as numbers, letters, and strange symbols flew everywhere around him, obviously trying to form a coherent whole to be displayed before his eyes, but such attempts kept failing, again and again. Before he could even start thinking about how both mesmerizing and absurd this spectacle was, however, it all stopped, as suddenly as it had begun. Accompanying the end of this unique show, 2 things happened. First, knowledge had spontaneously appeared in his mind and he could perfectly understand it, as if it had always been there, just inaccessible. Second, a weird simultaneously hot and cold energy had made its apparition inside his body completely unannounced. Aven had just simply and purely awakened his innate ability and the energy potential of his cells, joining the world of the supers, a minority that had always controlled and protected the world since ancient times, by becoming one of them. *** Do you have a sci-fi itch to scratch? Maybe that story can help~ It’s not a comic story that doesn’t take itself seriously. It’s also not a grimdark story, going to the depth of making sure the environment is the worst one ever. It’s just a serious story, a rational one, one you can comfortably dive into, written by a guy who already got some writing experience by having seriously written more than 2 000 pages of another serious story prior to starting this one. Enjoy *** Update: 3 chapters every week (Friday, Saturday, Sunday) Chapters: Around 3 000 words each.
