Chapter 653: Impromptu Fight Club
Chapter 653: Impromptu Fight Club
We went down another floor and this seemed to be a boss room.
There were also people waiting or even camping here, the two groups separating themselves to occupy two different lanes in the corridor.
Unsurprisingly, all eyes turned to us when we entered.
Ugh... Now I really don't want to be in an enclosed space with other parties because I know exactly what would happen in that scenario.
Thus... In order to prevent that from happening, I decided to strike first.
I stood in front of everyone, crossed my arms and puffed up my chest to create as imposing of a pose as I could before sucking in a breath.
"We're only interested in girls! So don't bother approaching us unless you're a pretty girl!!"
Silence reigned after my declaration for a minute before a few of them started laughing.
One rather large sized man stood up from his group and strolled towards me with a confident gait.
"Hey, hey... You don't really expect us to believe that when you're going through a Dungeon like this right? We know you're here for dick so just admit it."
"I'm afraid you are wrong about that. What I'm saying now is the truth and I suggest that you back off."
He smirked before leaning forward, "Oh? And what would happen if I said no?"
I checked his stats with [Screened] and realised that his highest stat was half of mine.
I thus decided to use a show of force to assert dominance so I grabbed him by the neck and lifted him up into the air, holding him there without much effort.
"Or else this would happen."
I then tossed him aside and watched as he was flung towards the wall, crashing into it with a loud bang.
He bounced off the wall before crashing back down onto the floor, the poor man knocked unconscious.
A few of his friends immediately leapt up to their feet and shouted at me.
"Hey! That was uncalled for!"
"How dare you use violence you violent lady!"
"We demand compensation for this!"
I could have pointed out that I warned the guy first and he chose not to back off which meant he brought that upon himself.
But instead, I decided that the best way to make them back down was not using reasoning or logic.
I turned to stare at them, "What are you going to do about it? Fight me?"
Three of them charged towards me in a fit of rage.
How predictable...
I gave a mental command and Shadow Odeta stepped in front of me while I discreetly buffed her with [Strength]
He dug into his pouch and fished out a small silver coin to pass it to me as his entry fee so I stepped aside and allowed him to go up against Shadow Odeta.
"Is it fine for me to use a weapon while she is unarmed?" He asked.
I scoffed, "Giving her a weapon would be making her weaker."
"Hahaha! I see! I see! Alright then! I guess I should get serious!"
The both of them assumed their stances and the swordsman was the one who made the first move.
He charged at her with his sword raised in a thrusting motion, the blade aimed for her neck.
Shadow Odeta took a step forward and... That was all the guy saw before he found Odeta standing right beside him and inside his guard, completely catching him by surprise.
She had buffed herself with both [Strength] and [Body Current] to kick the ground and propel herself forward, covering the distance between her and the swordsman in an instant.
Before he could even reach, Shadow Odeta had delivered a swift punch into his abdomen,
There was a loud crack before the swordsman was sent flying away and crashed into the other end of the tunnel, imprinting himself on the wall.
The poor guy then fell face first onto the ground and remained there, unmoving. That swordsman had been knocked out cold from just a single blow.
Well... That was the easiest hundred Creas I have ever earned!
Now I wonder if I could--
"Hey! I wanna fight next!"
"Wait! Me too! I want to fight the cold faced beauty at the back!"
"I want to fight the leader herself!"
Instead of being deterred at the sight, a good number of the Dungeoneers actually leapt to their feet and requested a duel as well with their silver coins in hand while making weird requests.
For some reason, there seemed to be quite a number of them who wanted to fight me especially.
I guess it's because I look weaker than everyone else in the party or something?
At least that was my hypothesis until they started talking again.
"Could I request that you use only your feet? I want to be stepped on!"
"Hey! Don't be ridiculous! How could you ask something like that?! I also want to be stepped on!!"
"Go and wait your turn! I suggested it first!"
"No, I came first! So it's me that you should be listening to!"
"Please step on us!!"
...
What the fuck.
