Conquering The Novel

Chapter 59 The Gladiators Battle Ground! (3)

After observing her with my skill Hawkeye, I switched my location with the smashed wooden box behind her.

Which she wasn't anticipating and caught her off guard, so I was able to strike her effortlessly.

—Splash!

As I struck the spiky hammer into her, her head shattered, leaving a blood smear on my clothes, and she died with a horrified expression on her face.

The spiky hammer I was grasping appeared to have broken in the process as well.

"Ohh, her head was shattered like a watermelon," said the commentator.

Loud clapping and cheering erupted around the arena.

I grabbed the dead female gladiator's bow, ignoring the cheering and the commentator's remarks.

"She barely had three arrows remaining, and the bow's quality was indeed ruined," I muttered to myself after examining the bow.

But I'll have to make do for the time being because I believe I've already received enough coins to acquire a weapon, right?

'Or! Maybe I'll have to kill a few more people before I can get a weapon?' I pushed forward, thinking to myself inwardly.

"I have a free kill for you." Irethiel abruptly stated.

"Huh? "What exactly does that mean?" I was curious.

"Aim your arrow in the anti-clockwise direction from you," Irethiel instructed.

For the time being, I didn't ask her much and decided to do what she asked of me.

"Here?" I targeted and inquired where she had directed me.

"No, to your left, go on, go on...stop!" I followed her instructions and came to a halt.

"Now shoot your arrow directly at it," Iretheiel instructed.

"…."

But there was no one there except for the fence.

"Are you serious right now?" You realize this isn't the time to be joking, right?" I was dissatisfied and rebuked her.

"Ahh, just shoot it, why ask so many questions, I know now isn't the time for jokes. Why don't you trust me without any reservations?" Irethiel stated in a frustrated tone.

—Swish!

I fired the arrow she made me point toward, not wanting to hear her nag.

And the arrow struck the wall, but not before a pained voice could be heard.

Thud! — AHK!

I scrutinized the area after hearing a pained voice and was astounded to see a man with his throat punctured by my arrow nailed to the wall, while his blood was oozing like tap water from his throat.

"Ohhhhh! He was able to see right through the infamous Chameleon's disguise!!!"

When I heard the commentator yell, I snapped out of my concentration and understood that he must be skilled at disguise, and was ambushing and slaying the approaching gladiators by catching them off guard.

"See, am I not correct?" Wasn't he simply a free kill? Who was waiting for someone to kill him?" Iretheil laughed as he stated this.

"…."

'What exactly does she mean by "free kill?" His camouflage was so good that even I couldn't spot him. If it hadn't been for her, I'd have fallen for it and become his target,' I reasoned inwardly.

But, because I didn't want her to think any higher of herself than she already does, I didn't correct her.

Then I quickly approached his lifeless body and snatched the weapon he was carrying which was a dagger.

I then proceeded while hearing the cheers of Meira, Howkins, and possibly other gladiators who were involved in the battles.

After a few moments of continuing forward while ignoring all of the trap doors, Irethiel detected someone and stopped me yet again.

"There is a square-shaped wooden box ahead of you in a door, but-"

Irethiel paused in her speech and burst out laughing.

"But then what?" "Complete your sentence before you chuckle," I urged impatiently with an annoyed smile since I didn't enjoy how she kept me waiting.

"Pfft, but there's a snake behind that wooden box." She sighed, held back her laughter, and said.

A huge grin appeared on my face as I heard her.

"A camper, Eh?" I muttered, pushed forward, and came to a standstill not far from the wooden box.

Then I pulled out my dagger and stared at the square wooden box, as the camper waited for me to approach it.

"Swap!" I mumbled.

My position was quickly swapped with the wooden box, and I was now directly in front of the camper.

"Hmm?" Confounded, the Camper gladiator exclaimed.

If it had been an anime, there would have been question marks on top of his head.

"Peek A Boo!" I smiled at him and slit his throat before he could react.

Slash! —

He died with his throat severed and a shocked expression on his face.

"Surprised Motherfu*cker?" The commentator cursed out loud, as he witnessed the scene.

After hearing the commentator's remark, the audience burst out laughing and started cheering.

But, catching sight of the perplexed expression on the gladiator who had just died, Even Irethiel couldn't stop laughing.

"Pfft- hahaha, his face was comical as he gazed at you in surprise," Irethiel added.

I ignored her and took the weapon the camper gladiator was carrying, which appeared to be a dagger as well.

"It appears that daggers are the most common weapon in this game," I spoke to myself.

Then I destroyed the wooden box he was hiding behind and discovered a low-level mana potion within.

"Well, it's better than nothing," I reasoned.

"Whoa!!!"

As the audience was still ecstatic after watching my swap skill once again.

"You have a really fine skill there, Prince!" The commentator remarked.

I'm making them notice my skill as much as possible so that their focus will be drawn to my alias "Prince" rather than me.

As Silvia stated, anyone would be hesitant to investigate a combatant she has brought.

Furthermore, the person in the leaked online video will also be thought to be the Prince, Silvia's gladiator.

Though it is not a long-term solution, it will suffice for the time being until I reach the academy, as no one would want to attack me in the academy because they are afraid of Ivica.

Irethiel exclaimed excitedly while I was considering.

"Yep, she's got some skills!"

"Are you referring to Meira?" I was curious.

"Let's goooooooooo!!!" That's exactly what I was talking about baby!!"

Even before Irethiel could respond, the Afro guy remarked.

And excited chants erupted around the stadium.

"MEIRA!!!"

"MEIRA!!!"



"HOWKINS!!!"

"HOWKINS!!!"

"That warrior guy is also not too shabby, neither of them is being pushed back," Irethiel explained.

"Oh, she's going up against that warrior guy?" I asked Irethiel.

"That's correct. They both appear to know what they're doing, but there is a swarm of other gladiators surrounding them, waiting for one of them to die or be severely injured." Irethiel replied.

"Is that correct? And where are they clashing again?" With a mischievous smile, I inquired.

"Hehe, they're right in the middle," Irethiel exclaimed as if she understood what I was thinking.

"That appears to be the final main stage, as the walls are closing in on us as well," I muttered as I made my way toward the center.

"Yeah, and there aren't many people alive," Iretheil said and continued.

"There is a high ground near the center wall's boundary where you can obtain a good view of them."

"Humm," I nodded as I moved forward, but was abruptly stopped by a beep sound.

- Beep! - Beep!

As I confronted it, I noticed a magical drone materialize behind me out of nowhere, drop a weapon in front of me, and then vanish.

'It could be because I accumulated enough coins to acquire a weapon.' I thought to myself and examined the weapon.

And when I saw the weapon provided to me, I couldn't help but smile.

Though I already have weapons in my inventory that I may use at any point, I don't want anyone to know about them because they are my biggest trump card.

As the strong enemy lowered his guard after seeing me barehanded and without weapons, suddenly a sword appeared in my hands out of nowhere and pierced his heart.

Though storage rings can perform the same thing, the opponent will become wary after observing them.

I shook my head, broke out of my thoughts, and hung the new weapon I received around my waist.

I was given a katana, which, while not as good as Mika's but will suffice for the sake of this game.

After getting my weapon, I sprinted toward the center as it was the last stage of the game.
