“Set 3, Arena 31, Winner…” As the announcer was preparing to announce the winner of the duel something miraculous happened on the arena stopping Nathan Buch who was about to descend the arena stage.

The condition of Chou’s Corpse was very bad because of the corrosive and acidic nature of the grey mist. The miraculous part was the mingled and melted corpse of Kindle Chou in the arena which started to glow with bright blinding light. The condition of Chou’s Corpse results from the corrosive and acidic nature of the grey mist. The brilliant light on the Chou’s corpse vanished leaving behind a completely healthy and energetic Kindle Chou.

Seeing Chou resurrect a cold sweat broke on Nathan’s back not because he saw a ghost but because he almost got off the arena thinking Chou was dead. This would mean that he would be disqualified for walking out of the bonds of the arena. Thinking about how he was just about to become the biggest joke of the tournament Nathan was enraged and wanted to teach this resurrecting fat pig a lesson but he was left dumbfounded by what fatty did next.

“Fuq! You did not descend the arena yet. I should have waited a little longer before resurrecting” yelled Kindle Chou looking at Nathan who was glaring at him. Remembering the hell he had been through in the grey mist, Chou let out a shriek and genuinely rolled off the arena stage shouting, ” I surrender! I surrender!”

Others could only see that Kindle Chou was resurrected healthy and full of energy but only Chou knew what he had to pay for his resurrection. Falling down the arena on his face, Chou shouted, “Medic! Medic!” Seeking help from the medical staff assigned to oversee the injured participants.

“Arena 31, winner Nathan Buch”

As the puzzled medical staff carried a completely fine Chou on the stretcher, Chou asked the beautiful medic walking next to the stretcher, “Miss when will I get my participation certificate? I can no longer continue to participate in the tournament due to my condition.”

The medic did not know what condition the participant in front of her was speaking about as her medic scan card showed that Kindle Chou was completely fine but she did not think too much into it and answered, ” the participation certificate will be sent to your grimoire after the tournament ends and the young heroes ranking list is prepared.”

After a while Chou combed his oily hair with his hands and putting on the most charming smile his chinless face could deliver he looked at the female medic and said, “Beauty I am ranked 420th on the Sky blossom young heroes list. Would you like to grab a coffee next week?”

“No, I just decided to cut back on my caffeine intake. ” the medic looked at Chou with scorn and rejected him as bluntly as possible but also not being too obvious.

“How about some English tea at Prestige Cafe?” A single rejection would never stop our boy, Chou.

“How about the slaughterhouse you pig?” The Medic no longer cared, her face cramped with anger as she rejected Chou mercilessly.

“No thanks, your taste is too heavy for me.” Replied Chou with a genuinely troubled face. Seeing chou’s genuinely troubled face after indirectly mocking her, the medic stomped her foot on the ground and left hurriedly.

…

The resurrection ability of Kindle Chou successfully caught my attention and wondering why I missed such an awesome ability I checked the list of participants to check his info. Seeing Kindle Chou’s info I knew why I skipped his name,

Set 3, Arena 40, Kimble Wang Vs Josh Bent

“3.. 2.. 1, fight”

“Bait” mouthed Kimble Wang forming a finger gun mimicking a handgun, aiming at Josh Bent. The next second the Kimble’s opponent Josh vanished into the thin air as if he never existed. The Announcer and the Audience monitoring the card duel at arena 40 both became speechless. One of the contenders just vanished. ‘What the fuck happened?’ This thought screamed in all of their minds.

Unfortunately this time even the recaps of the duel did not help them to understand the situation. No matter how much they slowed the recap all they saw was that Josh just vanished.

As time went on the question and mystery behind the vanishing of Josh continued to eat at the thoughts of the audience and the announcer, especially the parents of Josh Bent, Mr and Mrs Bent along with the rest of the Bent family.

The referee was confused; he did not know whether Josh was dead or alive. He had to see the corpse or body of Josh before he could declare a winner. At first, the Announcer and audience thought that Josh had used an invisibility or stealth card but as time passed they started to entertain the thought that maybe Josh is dead. Then the referee turned to the only person who seemed to be calm despite Josh vanishing, Kimble Wang.

“He is dead. Please announce the results.” Kimble nonchalantly answered the referee some clearing and adding to the mystery behind Josh’s disappearance.

“Josh Bent dead”

“Arena 40, Winner Kimble Wang”

In a blink of an eye, that’s all it took for the duel at arena 40 to come to an end. Kimble’s explanation other than confirming the death of his opponent only adds to the mystery behind the disappearance of the contestant Josh Bent. This mystery caused a chill in the spine of all the audience who watched the card duel at arena 40.

Since I only watched the recap of the arena 40 card fight, I was checking all the duels of the black level caution participants after I was done watching Nick’s duel. I could not use my soul pupils to check on the mystery behind the disappearance of Josh Bent and Kimble’s card ability. But a ridiculous thought crawled up in my mind that what if Josh Bent purposefully gave up on the card fight by using long-distance teleportation. That seemed ridiculous but it promotes another angle to Kimble’s card ability, what if it is related to teleportation.

Shaking my head as Sunan, Kathy and the rest wished me best, I got up and headed to arena 37 as the 3rd set of the first round had reached its conclusion and the 4th set was about to begin soon.
