Chapter 212: Icon of Chivalry
’What a chore...’
Sunny dragged himself out of the Dreamscape pod and sighed.
Even though the battle royale happened inside an illusion and his body wasn’t tired or bruised, the mental exhaustion was real. The qualifier round had turned out to be much more demanding than Sunny had thought.
Of course, he could have used the three shadows to augment himself and devastate the entire arena, but that would have defeated the purpose. Sunny had managed fine with just his own strength. This way, he was also polishing his technique and enriching his comprehension of Shadow Dance, which was not a small matter.
With a small sigh, he went down to the party car, and checked on Seele. She was sleeping blissfully in the pod, so she wasn’t done yet.
Or maybe she was and couldn’t figure out how to get out.
Either way, Sunny returned to his room and checked his phone.
Currently, hundreds of similar illusory battles were being broadcasted for people to see. Some were already close to a conclusion, some were in the thick of bloodshed, and some were only just starting.
However, not every broadcast received the same amount of attention — those arenas where renowned duelists or especially powerful newcomers were fighting pulled the most of it. Sadly, due to Mongrel’s infamy, the one Sunny had just finished was among the more popular broadcasts. It was also one of the earliest to end, so clips of the most exciting moments were already circulating on the network.
Sunny groaned.
’Perfect... just perfect... another damned viral clip...’
