Chapter 357: An Evaluation of Kai’s Strength
Within the Mirror Dimension, Kai and Hadoken stood some 100 ft apart from each other.
The bonfire roared stupendously to their right, and on their left was the crowd of Contestants, with their utterly disdainful looks, eying Kai with hideous mockery in their eyes.
Behind Contestant Hadoken, some hundred meters away were the four empty high-back chairs, and the three Protectors were standing in front of them.
The air smelled of erupting tension.
Kai observed everything, and then he observed more, his slitted, hazel pupils seeing the hidden meanings and reasons for everything.
He distinctly remembered that this Contestant, wearing Karate gi, had shown no interest in him and his doings until Moraine had given him the meat of a magical creature.
A leech, Kai reflected, giving Hadoken a nickname. He must be pursuing Moraine's affection. Or else there was no reason to get worked up over insignificant things.
This also means that Moraine and Hadoken belong to the same System, Chaos, if she wasn't lying to me.
Moreover, seeing the expression of the other two, they must belong to Order or at least the System opposite to Moraine. Such balance couldn't have been maintained otherwise.
In Kai's mind, this analysis didn't even take a fraction of a second, letting him see the truth of the situation.
Kai wasn't some pure and sacred man, either.
