Chapter 413: Jury Again

Translator: Lonelytree Editor: Millman97

After one month, Feng Bujue was no longer the same player King of Shadow met before. In terms of pure combat ability, Brother Jue had the upper hand. But King of Shadow was still one of the players Feng Bujue disliked to encounter. This player focused on summoning and was much like Seven Kills. They only trained one mastery and basically ignored all the rest. In a certain way, they were the kind who refused to accept defeat.

“You wish to fight me with your summoned creature?” King of Shadow said when he saw that Feng Bujue had also summoned a spirit to fight him. He roared impressively. “You’re seeking death!”

“He—”

—

“The master with the wish to kill ordered the giant golem and activated its skill. The buildings around started to shake, and the air was rushing with tremors. Feng Bujue and the warrior spirit behind him were stunned by this destructive power. Before they did anything, their presence was already overwhelmed. But, at that moment...”

—

The narration signified a sudden turn of events. From a vantage point of about ten meters high, a cold glint appeared. Instantly, an arrow of light shot through the wind, aiming at the stone golem’s arm. King of Shadow reacted swiftly. He ordered the golem to stop, and he evaded the arrow.

—

“The man raised the bow, shattering the earth in half.

“With a groan, the string buzzed. Cutting through the cloud, searing like a meteor. The arrow scalded one’s soul, introducing a new matter into the battle.”

—

At that moment, Feng Bujue sighed in relief. When he noticed the Blood Golem had a skill behind the heavy punch, he knew things were going to be bad. The arrival of this arrow helped him. He quickly summoned Bason to stop his skill and retreat alongside him.

King of Shadow turned to look at the direction where the arrow came from. He groaned. “Qie...You had to interrupt this, didn’t you?”

“This final is conducted in a battle royale format, so why are you calling it an interruption?” Ambitionist said. He appeared on the rooftop of a nearby building. He continued, “By the way...this narration surely is something else. Who would shout ‘He’ before they did anything?”

“Oh? Brother Specs,” Feng Bujue said as he lifted his head and saw the man too. “This is such a coincidence.”

Ambitionist pushed on his glasses and scoffed. “Brother Feng, I’d advise you to stop your habit of giving people random nicknames.”

“Oh? You two know each other?” King of Shadow’s expression shifted. “Hmph...So this is going to be two versus one?”

“Not really.” Ambitionist shook his head. “I’m not here to help anymore.” He turned to King of Shadow. “I just want to settle a score with Brother Shadow. How about a 1 vs 1?” Actually, there was not much bad blood between them, but as famed freelance professional players, it was inevitable that their fans would compare them. This went on for a while, and even they themselves felt that it was about time they fought to decide who was better.

“Great!” Feng Bujue announced loudly, drawing it out. In a good-natured tone, he said, “In that case, you two have fun. I’ll be going then.” He waved goodbye and prepared to leave. The man was truly at the height of shamelessness.

“Wait a moment!” Ambitionist halted Brother Jue.

“What?” Feng Bujue turned and showed him an annoyed face. He narrowed his eyes. “Didn’t you say you wished to have a single duel with him?”

“That is true.” Ambitionist smiled. “But I have someone here with me...” As he spoke, a large shadow appeared on his left side. “He seems to be very interested in you.”

“Qie...” Feng Bujue grumbled with discontent. He thought, I knew he came prepared. With his intelligence and calculated mind, he could have appeared after I finished the fight with King of Shadow, or he could have ambushed us during a crucial moment. But he showed himself so openly and declared that he wanted to fight with King of Shadow. That was just so unlike him. Even if he was confident in his partner, there was no need to show themselves so early. The two of them could have waited until...

Feng Bujue’s thoughts were interrupted because he had a clearer view of the person next to Ambitionist. At that moment, all his questions had been resolved.

“So this is why...” Feng Bujue raised his voice and asked Ambitionist, “You met him somewhere in the city?”

Ambitionist replied, “Indeed. Mr. ‘Jury’ appears to be desperately looking for you. So I’ve been assisting him in his search for you.” He pushed his glasses. “After all, I have good sleuthing mastery.”

“So you’re using an NPC to deal with me...” Feng Bujue laughed. “I should have expected this. That is more your style.” He shook his head and shrugged helplessly. “You will get two points from killing King of Shadow and then one point when the NPC kills me. You could have gotten five points, but these three points are much easier to obtain than the former. Furthermore, for a seed player like myself, the earlier I die, the better. By now, I have not accumulated many points yet.” He paused. “You lived up to your name of the Brilliant Strategist. While others are considering how to kill more people, you are calculating strategies on how to stop the most hopeful players from getting more points.”

“Hey, you’re making it sound like he has already succeeded,” King of Shadow said. “I have not yet surrendered, you know.”

When the player spoke, “Mr. Jury” slid down the wall and settled before Feng Bujue.

“Feng...Bu...Jue.” it said haltingly. “A defendant spot at the Court of Truth has been left open for you.” As Brother Jue expected, it was again not a human. From its appearance, it was an enlarged Hitmonlee¹.

“Let me guess...” Feng Bujue said. “The charge is ‘the spread of chaos’?”

“That is just one of the charges levied against you,” his opponent said.

“Hmph. It is more like one of the many charges you people decided to levy against me,” Feng Bujue corrected. “But why should I follow your set of rules?”

“The Court of Truth has the right to preside over the judgement of any sin in the multiverse,” the pokemon replied. “Do you think your cunning and ignorance will help you escape from the punishment of justice?”

“Justice?” Feng Bujue suddenly revealed a derisive smile. “In my view, the only justice in the world is death. Everyone will die, but not everyone can live the way they want.”

“Such blasphemy...” The Pokemon said. “Are you trying to confuse me with your speech of chaos?”

King of Shadow heard the conversation, and he couldn’t help but say, “Brother Feng, I thought you were just good at pulling hatred from fellow players. I’m surprised your name already spread among the NPC. Enter a random scenario, and you will run into the Four Divinities’ people chasing after you. If we were not in the middle of a livestream, I would have bowed my head in admiration.”
