Book 1: Chapter 79: Answers Part II

Scarlet

Tar looks surprised for a second before hesitating a second. But in the end he answers my question, All of the proxies will be brought into the in between located between the Farshore and the mortal realm. We will then have a series of tournaments and competitions held there, and the winner will be decided on by whoever accumulates the most points throughout the tournaments and competitions.

Oh. Interesting.

Amongst the tournaments and competitions, there will be ones that are to the death, and ones that arent, Tar continues, surprising me at the idea of the tournament not being a pure to the death thing. Of course, the ones to the death are worth more points than the ones that arent. And you can surrender at any time during the not to the death ones, but you can only surrender once out of all the to the death competitions you participate in.

I feel my pride flare up slightly at the thought of participating in something like that.

This tournament of yours actually sounds a little interesting.

Although do I get anything from winning for you?

Yes, you will be given achievements by the System that will help in gaining new skills, Tar says, adding more incentive towards this tournament. Not to mention the EXP of whatever demons or humans you may end up killing in the tournament, should you do the to the death competitions.

I grimace slightly at the thought of killing another human, only to shake the thought out of my head a second later as he adds, Oh, and the entire tournament will be conducted with the population of the Farshore as the audience.

This statement takes the wind right out of my metaphorical sails.

Im going to have an audience watching? Now thats not gonna be fun.

Yeah, I can see you disliking that part, he says while floating down and landing on my chest. None of this matters for a long time anyways. Not when the tournament wont likely happen for decades or even centuries down the road at the earlier.

True. But Id still rather be prepared.

Also, theres one more thing thats bothering me.

What is it? Tar asks, glancing at me from my chest.

I look up at the ceiling.

If I did become a full blooded demon, wouldnt that mean a Fracture core would send me to Tartarus when shattered?

He goes silent.

I begin to sit up, letting Tar roll down to my lap as I reach into my pocket and pull out my phone to find Belles contact. Then I send her a text asking how that plan she had going turned out for her becoming a Guardian.

And surprisingly, she answers almost immediately, making me briefly wonder what shes doing right now.

[Yeah, that didnt work out. Nothing happened. I was just kind of left there watching dad slaughter a bunch of demons.]

That was to be expected, Tar says offhandedly.

Im just glad shes not hurt.

Then again, Allen wouldnt have been acting as he was earlier if she had. And Cynthia likely wouldve verbally gutted Allen for letting him take her in the first place.

In fact, I bet she doesnt even know that he took her. And that when she finds out, she will verbally gut him.

[It was rather stupid to suggest that plan in the first place, just so you know. But Im glad youre alright.]

After sending the text, I flop back on my bed again with my phone held off to the side and my arm resting on the mattress.

I am curious as to how Arthur talked to her though. Especially considering that she ended up going through with the plan anyways. Even if she did kind of fail in the process.

My phone buzzes, making me bring it up to my face to read her response. And when I see it, my eyes widen in surprise.

[Arthur wasnt very happy. And hes taken a couple of days off to visit despite the large price, so hell be here in a couple days.]

The hell? I mutter, wondering where in the stars Arthur managed to get the credits to take a trip to a Tier 1 city. Much less where he got the permission to do so.

Then the image of a certain protective father flashes in my head and I realize that Allen is probably using Arthur to ground his daughter in a way right now, since he cant actually do anything with her being an adult and all.

Interesting tactic.

[Have fun with that!]

After sending her my rather sarcastic reply, I chuckle at the thought of Arthurs little conversation that hell be having with her when he gets there. Since that guy doesnt mince his words.

Then I just set up an alarm on my phone for about an hour and a half from now then go to sleep, deciding to take a quick nap before the team gathering.
