Chapter 67: Vs Demon King and Shadow Monarch ( LowtierFox )

A loud howl silences the entire place.

Sunz feels goosebumps across his whole body "What was that?"

Lucas: He is hunting.

Sunz(What?)

LowtierFox's voice echoes around the area: 10 Pathetic Players. not a single one can win a round… Let's get on with the usual, who here is ready to sacrifice themselves to save the next 10?

…

LowtierFox drags his chair to the middle of the stage, he sits down and glares at the audience with displeased while drinking his water bottle.

"Well then if no one is brave enough… We'll take a five-minute break."

Lucas nudges Sunz: Want to fight him?

Sunz: No, he going to demolish me faster than the previous 10.

Lucas: You got a point. If you don't then I will.

Then Lucas throws his Golden Card at LowtierFox.

LowtierFox catches the Card with his ear then his voice echoes throughout the room.

"What is your Game and Controller choice?"

Lucas: Game 'Anything Goes', Controller 'Human'.

LowtierFox: Game accept! Controller deny!

Lucas: Why?

LowtierFox stands up from the chair and within 1s he's already standing in front of Lucas.

"This answers your question?"

An extreme force of wind blasts out after that sentence, flinging Sunz and Lucas chairs away. Both Sunz and Lucas manage to still standing after being hit by the wind.

Lucas: You want a sacrificial lamb for these Pathetic Players, here I am.

LowtierFox: An advice for you Kid… Don't insult people until you show them your strength. Right now what separates you from the rest is the boldness, otherwise you're just one of them.

"Now, I suggest you change your controller to something safer."

Lucas: Advice taken, but I guarantee that only you and I are well trained enough for that type of controller.

LowtierFox: You know there are a lot of differences between…wait a bit

…

It looks like LowtierFox is talking to someone else.

LowtierFox (Well well well, you would be the last person I expect asking for a favor.)

…

"Change of plan kid, your request has been accepted." He says to Lucas

"All PLAYERS STAY PUT!"

After shouting, the whole view party area starts moving to create a fighting arena in the middle of all the seats.

LowtierFox walks into the arena and Lucas quickly follows.

Lucas and LowtierFox get in their spot and stand 10 meters apart.

LowtierFox: Choose your character.

Lucas picks a shadowy character called 'Silhouette'.

LowtierFox: Going for a hand to hand combat only?

Lucas: I choose the character that best fits my style.

LowtierFox: Suit yourself… You know what's great about these technologies? I can play as Myself!.

"Rule! There are 3 ways to win/loss

-Running out of health

-Timer ran out

-Unconscious"

"Ready?"

Lucas: Ready!

Inside the arena, Lucas and LowtierFox got replaced by their character hologram.

*Round 1*

Lucas takes the initiative and attacks first, but all of his attacks get blocked then he gets hit by a counter-attack which knocks him to the wall.

LowtierFox: You nearly break my guard gauge. Good effort!

Lucas checks his health bar and sees that it only lost about 5% (I only lost that little…this will be the longest minute of my life!)

LowtierFox and Lucas move around the arena, waiting for the perfect moment to strike. Until LowtierFox attacks first, going in for a grapple and then canceling it for a low attack, but Lucas makes a perfect dodge then does an air attack and follows up with a combo that knocks LowtierFox down to 50% health.

LowtierFox: You sure are slippery! Can you still keep this momentum up after blocking my next hit?

Lucas: Blocking is not an option anymore and I can always count on Adrenalin!

LowtierFox: Two more bars to go then.

After 20 seconds of going head to head against each other, Lucas managed to dodge all of LowtierFox's attacks and win the first round.

Lucas *huff*: Is this the skill of the Monarch? I know you have more ways to deal with this type of playstyle.

LowtierFox: You are not as bad as I thought, you have the skill… the only thing holding you back is the weak human body.

Lucas *huff* *huff*

LowtierFox pulls out a bottle of cologne and sprays himself: Need to cover up my scent, since us Fox have unpleasant odor or that just me. Today I'm using 'Boiling Skin'.

"Now where was I… you know having the endurance ability from those common meathead would be really useful for you. Since you are not in the best shape."

*Round 2*

Lucas attacks first, but with perfect timing LowtierFox makes Lucas and himself perform a *Trade* which knocks both of them down. LowtierFox stands up faster than Lucas and both take 5% damage to their heath.

LowtierFox: That was a direct hit kid.

He slowly approaches Lucas.

Lucas "Damn you!" quickly dash through LowtierFox and unleash his character full combo but all that damage was blocked, which create an opening for LowtierFox to unleash his *Super Special*. The move animation is just LowtierFox spraying cologne on himself and then delivering a powerful punch at Lucas's character chest that shatters all of the bones in his body.

The attack took 80% of Lucas's health, knocked him down, and when he didn't move after 10 seconds the system declared LowtierFox as the winner of Round 2.

…

LowtierFox squats down in front of Lucas and tells him: Stand up so I can end your suffering.

Lucas then feels an extreme shock pulling his body up (I can't move anything)

*Round 3*

Lucas just stands still, not being able to move at all while LowtierFox casually approaches him and performs a grab command. Lucas's hand got grabbed and then his entire body being thrown to the floor.

*Winner Monarch LowtierFox*

LowtierFox (At least your heart still beating.): Listen here EVERYONE! This is your example to remember not to challenge me in "Human/Vr Mode". Now, I need to take care of this Player and when I come back, I will fight the next 100 Players without stopping. So start practicing! I'll come back in 10-15 minutes.

After that speech, LowtierFox carries Lucas's body on his back to the private room.

Sunz (This is not what I expected to see today, I hope he won't have any permanent injuries.)

*Buzz Buzz*

(Game or Messages?)

Sunz pulls out his phone and see that it was a message from Grace.

Grace: Hey? You finish with your activity?

Sunz: Yes. You done with your too?

Grace: Yeah. We are meeting at the food court of this floor.

Sunz: Of? Don't you mean On?

Grace: No, apparently every floor has it own food court.

Sunz: Did not expect that. Well then see you in a bit.

Grace: ♥♥♥

Sunz: This is new and weird/scary.

Grace: Scary?

Sunz: My mind is just everywhere when encounter new situation.

Grace: Don't couple text like this?

Sunz: Depend? You want me to use emoji? I myself am a pretty bland texter.

Grace: Look like it up to me to make this relationship more interesting!!!

Sunz: I fear for what you plan in the future, Scary Lady.

Grace: You should be!

Sunz: Ok then see you in a bit.

Grace: See you!
