15 Chapter 15: Battle Invitation
Translator: 549690339
Just as David Jones was about to step out of the office, he suddenly heard Rosalind Louise’s anxious voice from behind.
“Mr. Jones, please wait a moment!”
Rosalind Louise quickly walked to David’s side: “The interview is over, and although it’s a bit presumptuous, becoming a powerful professional Trainer is not an easy task.”
“Yesterday was Waterland City’s Initial Pet Contracting Day, and I think you have successfully contracted an initial pet. Are you interested in having a pet battle with me?”
David turned to look at Rosalind, and before he could even respond to her battle invitation, he saw her smiling, as if to hide something.
Rosalind: “It’s just a simple exchange of ideas.”
Even though the interview was over, his new boss suddenly pulled this move, which was completely different from the intellectual persona he felt during the interview.
David felt that something was off about today’s interview.
He paused for a moment, sounding a bit surprised, and muttered softly, “You must be joking. I’m just a student who has just contracted a pet, while you are already a Master Trainer. The gap between our strengths is too wide.”
At this moment, Rosalind, who had already suppressed her excitement, teased, “What, you don’t want to battle my main force? That level of battle is too early for you.”
David was a bit confused, he blinked, trying to figure out the cause and course of the situation.
Why did his future boss suddenly invite him to a pet battle after the interview? What a strange turn of events!
“Don’t worry, the pet I’ll use is only a Class V Crystal.”
There was no other way, other than the newly contracted Crystal, Rosalind had no weaker pets.
“My pet and I are not yet fully acquainted, so we can’t beat yours.” David subconsciously tactfully declined.
“It’s okay, it’s just a friendly match, and there’s a prize. Just now, I noticed you liked the Titanium Ragdoll when you were identifying it.” Rosalind’s voice softened unexpectedly.
“If you win the battle, I’ll give you a Titanium Ragdoll for free. Even if you lose, it doesn’t matter; I’ll give you a pair of Arcane detection glasses as encouragement.”
At this moment, Rosalind’s straightforward voice resounded in David’s mind. What a generous boss, offering a Titanium Ragdoll without hesitation, so wasteful and inhumane.
If David didn’t know that Rosalind was in charge of the Ragdoll Mall and it was a well-known enterprise in Waterland City, he would even think he had encountered some new scam.
Undeniably, David was tempted!
“It would be an honor to battle with you, and I hope you can give me some guidance.”
David’s eyes suddenly changed, and he glanced at Rosalind without changing his expression, forcibly suppressing the doubt in his heart, then his face beamed with a smile.
Rosalind giggled, glanced at David, and teased, “You change quickly, follow me, there’s a professional battle ground on the top floor.”
The crisp sound of her high heels echoed on the clean and tidy floor. Watching Rosalind’s departing figure, David couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow.
He was just an ordinary high school student, regardless of Rosalind’s intentions, he could only deal with it one step at a time.
Moreover, she gave too much, it was simply irresistible!
…
David followed Rosalind to the top floor battle ground.
A pet battle requires a specially constructed battle gym because only a professional battle ground has strict security measures and medical support.
Each battle ground is equipped with at least one professional Medical Practitioner to promptly treat the injuries sustained by both sides’ pets during combat, preventing any life-threatening situation for the pets.
Looking at the spacious battle ground and the standby medical practitioners, David couldn’t help but sigh. The equipment here was much more luxurious than the school’s battle ground. Is this the happiness of the rich?
“Let’s have Petite Melody be our referee.” Rosalind looked at her secretary in a slim-fit blouse standing beside her.
Upon hearing this, Melody Guan nodded in understanding, then walked to the referee’s stand, coughing lightly before saying directly, “Are both sides ready?”
“I’m ready.” David nodded, his eyes filled with anticipation and excitement as he looked at Rosalind.
He had already told Rainbow in advance about the difficult battle ahead. At this moment, Rainbow was with full confidence waiting for his call.
Regardless, the opportunity was rare. Although he did not know why things had turned out this way, he would be heartbroken if he missed the chance to get a Titanium Ragdoll!
“I’m ready,” Rosalind nodded, her lips slightly parted, and the corner of her mouth always bearing a touch of a thought-provoking smile.
Could it be him?
Whether it was or not, this was the largest success rate she had seen in years, and now she had only one thing to do.
…
“If you’re ready, you can only summon pets after I count down three. Please note that Trainers can only issue commands within their activity range and not enter the field to fight with their pets.”
After ensuring both understood the battle rules, referee Melody Guan blew the brand-new whistle.
“Prepare for battle!”
“Three…two…one…”
“Battle, begin!”
As soon as the referee’s words fell, David and Rosalind began to communicate with Arcane Star and Star Ring to summon their pets at the same time.
A pale blue light intertwined in front of David, forming a blue Rune Circle. His standard Star Ring also flashed a blue light, and Rainbow’s figure quickly appeared in front of David.
At the same time, a beautiful and elegant figure appeared in the red Rune Circle in front of Rosalind, it was the Titanium Ragdoll: Crystal.
Looking at the disappearing red Rune Circle, David looked serious, feeling both enormous pressure and extreme excitement at the same time.
Arcane Force is a mysterious supernatural power. As the Arcane Star gets promoted through continuous cultivation, purification, and upgrade, the characteristic color of Arcane Force manifested outside will also change accordingly.
The ranking order of Arcane Star levels is blue, green, orange, white, red, gold, purple, black, and rainbow. The dazzling red light represented that Rosalind’s Arcane Star had reached Class V.
This also meant that he was about to face a genuine Master Trainer.
David looked solemnly at the Titanium Ragdoll in front of him, then encouraged through contract: “Come on, Rainbow! The opponent is strong, we’ll strive to win.”
To make Rainbow go all out, he added a little more.
“If you win this battle, you’ll get one extra strengthening session per day. Of course, if you lose, one less strengthening tonight.”
“Eek!”(╬ ̄皿 ̄)=○(No way!)
Already full of confidence, Rainbow suddenly widened its watery eyes and fixed its piercing glare on the menacing Titanium Ragdoll.
“Eek! Eek eek!” (▼ヘ▼#)(Failure? Not on my watch!)
