Chapter 61-2
Dn gasped for breath under Kanes attack.
Ugh! Ugh!
This bastard. Hes intentionally toying with me while we fight.
At first, I thought his attacks were weaker than they looked, but that wasnt the case.
He was purposely slowing down and taunting Dn by reducing his own gauge.
What should I do? Should I just give up?
There was no way Dn could win against Kane with the current situation.
But if he kept getting beaten like this, he knew he wouldnt be able to sleep tonight.
At least Illnd one hit.
While Dn pondered his next move, Kane continued to watch him, waiting for an opportunity.
Hmm. He has about 10 gauge points left.
Kane could reduce Dns gauge by roughly 10 points with his attacks.
If he managed to sessfullynd just one more attack, victory would be his.
Okay then
Kane thought to himself as he kicked off the ground and swung his sword down from above.
-Whoom!
Dn responded by thrusting his spear forward, but if things continued like this, his longer spear would hit him first.
Thats when Kane suddenly spun his body around to dodge Dns spear.
Taking advantage of Dns confusion, he quickly kicked him in the groin.
-Crunch!
The sound of something breaking echoed throughout the arena.
The two fighters fell into a momentary silence, as if they were trying to determine the winner.
Dn crumpled over in pain, holding his stomach with both hands, and tears streamed down his face.
ARHGGGG!
Seeing that, William felt that something was off and approached closer.
He dealt damage that exceeded the gauge What the hell did he do?
Their rtionship didnt seem to be good even in the waiting room before the fight.
So he continued to watch, just in case.
Fortunately, Kanes final attack wasnt a strike that exceeded the gauge.
William looked at Kane for a moment.
He too, seemed to be taken aback and at a loss for what was happening.
It seems that there was some problem with the protective suit.
Thinking that, William called the medic team.
The Academys priests from the medic team came and took Dn away.
William dered Kane the winner as Dn disappeared from the arena.
The winner is David Von Kane.
Woooo!!
Kane heard the audiences cheers and raised one corner of his mouth without anyone noticing.

While watching Kanes match, Franchi briefly left the waiting room and walked to a back alley where no one passed by.
Then, he carefully looked around and took out amunication crystal.
Did you make contact with Kane? came a displeasedughter from the crystal.
Yes, Franchi replied.
Kukukuku. Whats the probability of assassination? Jade replied.
100%, Franchi said with a smirk. Well, rather than evidence, the fact that the target was already shifted to Dn and that he wasnt even suspicious of me is enough reason.
Hmm. Well, with you, there shouldnt be any chance of failure. Do you have a n? Jade replied.
I will assassinate Kane perfectly without getting caught in the midst of his exhaustion, as he will undoubtedly be tired from his match with Jenny tomorrow. Franchi said.
Okay. After assassinating Kane, be careful and observe the reaction. Next careful of Kim Soo-yong, he cant be underestimated. Not even by someone like you. Jade replied.
Yes. Then, Ill go back to the waiting room. Franchi said.
Okay. Good luck. Jade replied.
After ending the call, Franchi put themunication crystal back into his space-time ring.
Then, he looked around with a nervous expression.
No one saw me, right? he thought as he walked back to the waiting room.
However, unbeknownst to him, Kanes Clone and the Constetion were observing him from a distance, listening to his every word.
***
After finishing the grade tournament, Iy down on my bed feeling tired, probably because I hadnt worked hard in a long time.
Oh. By the way, I cant believe it didnt get caught.
Its about myst move on Dn.
In fact, I had pushed my power to the limit for just a moment during thest attack.
Normally, it should have been discovered right away, but there was only one reason it didnt get caught.
It was thanks to the quality of the effect.
Normally, my mana should have increased and been caught by William. But I was able to adjust the effect quality to make it appear to decrease externally, so fortunately it wasnt discovered.
Ah~ I guess I can sleep well today too.
As Iy on the bed, feeling good, my clone opened the door and walked in.
Huh? Clone? Whats going on suddenly?
Well, actions speak louder than words, right? Im just following your orders.
Huh? What are you talking about?
I looked up for a moment at the sudden nonsense from my clone.
He took something familiar out of his pocket.
Trust me and look at this.
After hearing those words, I looked at the long object he took out.
As soon as my clone pressed a button on it
-Click!
At the same time as the light came out, countless memories flowed into my head.
Those memories started from the day after my date with the Constetion and continued until the day I died without knowing why.
I also remembered conversations I had with my clone.
With my memoriespletely restored, I raised one corner of my mouth.
As nned.
