Ch117 - Entertainment Match – Demon King 4

 

translator: xiin
editor: kara

At this point, the first round of direct confrontation had ended. The brave warriors had lost one tank and two DPS in the process plus the other two people who’d been killed during the ambush at the entrance to the castle. They’d already lost five teammates, half of their total number. 

Correspondingly, the demon king’s health had also dropped by 50%.

After he had forcibly harvested the archer’s head, the brave warriors had caught up. Although they’d been unable to save the archer, they had still tried their best to take the demon king’s health down to 30%.

 

 

This round could be considered a defeat on both sides, but overall, Odin had come out on top. This was because the captain of the brave warriors, who’d posed the greatest threat along with the elemental dancer and others, had already been dealt with, and the remaining survivors had already used up their big moves.

The audience was shouting on the public screen, “Oh, hey, keep it up! One more round, don’t back down, you might be able to kill them all in another round!” 

“Don’t talk nonsense. Odin isn’t in good shape either. He might trip up if he’s not careful…”

 

“Isn’t Odin’s secondary profession a priest?!!”

One sentence was enough to wake up the dreamers!

The audience and contestants were used to dealing with a great demon king who had low defense and was squishy inside. In this entertainment match, he’d be the priest too, which allowed him to heal himself––this was a little like bullying others.

 

However, Odin hadn’t used the priest’s skills at all and had even allowed his own health to drop to such a level––at least, it was to the extent where the audience who weren’t aware of the fact had been quite frightened.

The audience grew emotional as they began to discuss, “He must be acting again!”

“Pretending that he’s about to be done for, but in fact, he’s far from death!”

“An assassin who doesn’t take on the role of a movie emperor wouldn’t be a good demon king…” 

 

Sure enough, this acting wasn’t bad at all––

Odin had tricked a timid female anchor into coming up to attack. Like most anchors, she had one small problem: Her level of operations wasn’t a problem, but her strategic awareness wasn’t very strong. She was basically good at grabbing attention from the camera and showing off, but she was unable to follow the overall trend of the game.

She’d thought that she had encountered the great demon king at a weak moment, but in the next second, the dark wings suddenly opened up, then caught her in a grip as strong as a pair of dragon’s claws. 

This feathered capture technique was very rare in aerial combat. Odin had shown it before for two short seconds during the team competition’s aerial combat, but he surprised everyone with it again in this entertainment match.

His dark wings were folded together, completely blocking everyone’s sight.

At such a close distance and with such an ambiguous posture, it was like a real vampire in the midst of a hunt––gently embracing their prey, and in the next moment, it could be either a warm kiss or a pair of blood-sucking fangs…

The public screen was full of shrill screams, “You two!!! What are you doing!? A single man and woman alone together isn’t very appropriate!!” 

“Pleading for a transparent perspective! I really want to look up from below and see exactly what happened…”

In the VIP seats, Victor put up his legs and expressionlessly supported his chin in his hands. He thought about how to ‘reward’ his old antique that night.

 

––How about celery and watermelon stir fry? Braised fish with banana wasn’t a bad idea either, or he could try harder and use a pressure cooker to make braised popcorn…

––The old antique should be able to eat his fill on such a thoughtful dinner, right? Heh.

He folded his wings behind him and walked calmly down the stairs. 

At this time, he saw the five remaining brave warriors (and the black knight who was hiding among them) all rush up fearlessly!

The audience in the public screen were also caught by surprise, shouting, “Eh, eh, eh? Is this a suicide squad?” “Is this another tactic??”

The scrolling comments updated non-stop. The demon king frowned, then crossed his daggers in front of him in preparation for a fight.

Just then, suddenly! 

The hacker, Universal Day, entered a command he’d prepared long ago!

Five streaks of light swished by, heading towards the brave warriors who all changed models––

They transformed into five Victors, who all charged over!

Everyone: “……” 

Odin: “……”

Thunder broke the skies, the hills collapsed, and the rivers flowed backwards!

The Victors, who held a variety of different weapons, all stormed over.

The great demon king was stunned––he’d always been unfamiliar with the hacker abilities from the interstellar era. When the old antique saw this scene, his mind went blank for a rare moment, and then, he instinctively stepped back. He gathered himself and broke the glass window nearby, flying out of the castle with a crash. 

Everyone: “……”

There was a second of pure silence on the public screen!

 

The five Victors soon transformed back, and the five brave warriors breathed a sigh of relief. They immediately seized the opportunity to leave without giving the demon king a chance to come back and attack again.

Half a beat later, Universal Day finally squeezed out a sentence, “Just now, didn’t it look like a domestic violence scene?” 

Someone spoke darkly, “It was a domestic violence scene x5.”

The audience all expressed that life was difficult. The official organizers were all trying to kill them.

 

Now that there were technically only four brave warriors left on the team, the problem of the traitor among them suddenly became much more serious. 

The trap master anxiously set up more traps while the other four sat together like a mahjong table lineup. One of them spoke up, “Forgetting Worries, Universal Day, be honest. Which one of you is the black knight?”

Four pairs of eyes looked at each other, and they all seemed to say the same thing: My acting skills are the best, and my eyesight is also the best.

Forgetting Worries explained himself first, “Just now, I clearly behaved very well. I had even saved Geng Chen and took several of the great demon king’s attacks head-on.”

Universal Day retorted, “Your schemes are deep! ‘You left, me right’ and so on, it’s obviously a deliberate plan to harm others…” 

Forgetting Worries: “I was anxious and didn’t pay attention, it was a mistake!”

The audience on the public screen all tagged Forgetting Worries, “Either you’re a real black knight, or your stupidity acted up…”

Universal Day: “You escaped from outside the castle and came in. Now, think about why your two teammates are dead while you’re the only one still alive? Did you betray them?”

Forgetting Worries: “I lied to the great demon king and told him that I was the black knight. That was how I survived…” 

Universal Day: “Who are you kidding? That look that Odin had! I hid as a banana yet he found out instantly! Your credibility might be higher if you said that he tricked you instead!”

Forgetting Worries remained silent for two seconds and then suddenly showed a frightened expression, “No wonder I felt that Odin was a little soft-hearted. He shouldn’t have let go of a kill so easily. He must have let me off on purpose so that I wouldn’t be able to rid myself of suspicion. Not only did he incite the brave warriors to split up, but he’s also protecting the real black knight to some extent…”

Universal Day: “……” This seemed to be rather reasonable?

The brave warriors: “……” When they thought about it carefully, Odin was indeed such a person! 

Forgetting Worries: “Odin is too terrible!”

 

 

Forgetting Worries attacked Universal Day again, “You’re very suspicious with that poisonous mouth of yours… If you hadn’t flown over, the captain wouldn’t have died so easily.”

Universal Day: “That was really a mistake!” 

The public screen also tagged Universal Day: “Either he was really stupid, or he’s the black knight who can occasionally show moments of brilliance…”

The rest of the brave warriors were teammates from the championship team, so they mutually eliminated suspicion of each other and focused on the other two people, Universal Day and Forgetting Worries.

Forgetting Worries: “I really made a mistake!”

Universal Day: “You planned it deliberately, you’re the black knight! I’m the stupid one!” 

Forgetting Worries: “No! I’m the stupid one!”

Universal Day: “Motherf*cker, who dares to be stupider than me?!”

Forgetting Worries: “Your stupidity is so-so. Just now, I was the number one stupid person in the world.”

…… 

The brave warriors: “……” Stop arguing, you two are equal.

Audience: “……” What exactly happened to these two professional players???

 

The brave warriors were currently participating in the activity of weeding out the traitor. 

Meanwhile, the great demon king was flying through the bleak wind and rain outside the castle. His health hovered at 30%, and after he left combat state, he found a place to rest and recover.

He found a suitable window and flew in from outside.

All of a sudden, cold rain poured into the room. The demon king landed lightly, then shook his wings out twice before folding them up.

Odin called up the priest’s skill list and clumsily found two skills that could be used simultaneously to restore his own health. 

At this moment, the interior door to the room suddenly opened.

Odin had been aware of the movements beyond the door before it opened, but he hadn’t paid it much heed, because he knew that the one he would encounter would be an NPC––

 

Sure enough, after the door opened, it was a little loli NPC standing at the door.

The little loli wore a gothic dress as she opened her own bedroom door to find a tall shadow standing inside. 

Just then, lightning streaked across the window!

In an instant, the white, electric light illuminated everything in the room, outlining the deep and chiseled figure of the great demon king, including his billowing cloak and half-closed wings. There was also that pair of golden eyes that shone in the dark for a brief moment.

Little loli: “… Ying…”

Odin: “……” 

Little loli: “… Wu…”

Odin: “……”

Little Loli: “… Waaaaaaaaaaaah!! Mama!!!!”

The little loli dropped the oil lamp in her hand, picked up her skirt, and ran away in tears. The wooden door she left behind creaked as it swung back and forth. 

The big, expressionless great demon king, who hadn’t spoken a single word during the entire process, had also been left behind. Half a beat later, he gave up on trying to explain himself, shook his head, and continued healing himself.

The public screen: “… The demon king’s daily life: Scare a loli into tears (1/1)”

“Reasonably speaking, where else can she find such a handsome demon? What is she crying for?!!! If it was me, I’d be laughing to death, okay? Sigh, that girl is still young after all and doesn’t know the benefits the great demon king can bring…”

“I don’t know why, but I suddenly feel that the demon king is really pitiful, hahahahaha! I can get a sense of grievance from his back figure, I must be hallucinating!” 

 

More than ten seconds later, Odin had finally raised his health bar that the system had multiplied over ten times back to 70%. However, the brave warriors seemed to be worried that their efforts would be wasted and had directly come over to find him and try again.

The little loli’s scream had provided them with his location.

Forgetting Worries and Universal Day approached the room carefully from both ends of the corridor. They’d both come together as bait––indeed, the brave warriors had kicked the ‘Who is the undercover spy’ problem right back at the great demon king’s feet.
