Lucifer's Descendant System-Novel

Chapter 172: Cunning Predator

"All right guys, no pressure, we'll just need to do what we're used to doing while playing normally. Now I don't want to see anyone messing around because it's live for millions of people; we'll just keep doing what we've always done and it will be more than enough," Noah said in a firm tone to his teammates.

They had already gone over the strategies they would use during the first match. The team they were going to face would not be terribly difficult for them, so they did not need to develop any new strategies for such a weak team.

"That's it! Let's do our best so that the victory will be in our hands, after all, we came for the championship title!" Noah said to cheer up the boys who were a little nervous.

Mateo and Kevin still had a little doubt, Carlos was just slightly nervous, while James was completely confident. As a Blessed Rank D, James already considered it a fact that there were few people better than him at doing things.

{That was a glorious match, with an incredible victory for the Solid team! Unfortunately the TK team was relegated to the Lower Bracket, but that does not mean that the championship is over for this team, but that they will have a longer way to achieve victory, do not lose hope!} the presenter said on the virtual screen that Noah's team had in the private environment of theirs.

The teams' public lobby was used only at break times, as each wanted to concentrate and discuss tactics in private while watching the matches, causing each team to isolate themselves in their rooms.

{Now we will see a match between one of the teams with the most expectations in the championship, against one of the most consolidated teams in our scenario! Team From Hell vs Team of 9 Clouds!}

"Come on guys, this is our chance," Carlos said excitedly. People like him, Kevin, and Mateo were rare in a championship like this. After all, people with Blessings had many advantages over those who had to use the basic Blessing package from Valorwatch. A team like theirs that had only 2 Blessed was unique in the championship, which made them even more excited to be some of the few who had managed to make it to this stage.

When Noah closed his eyes, he immediately felt his perceptions of his surroundings change.

Opening his eyes again, he found himself, along with his friends, in something like an underground tunnel. But it was not like a regular tunnel, seeing the big stairs leading to an old and destroyed subway terminal there made it very clear that they were at a subway station.

This was one of the special arenas used in tournaments. Unlike normal Valorwatch matches, where a team was able to die more than once and be reborn again, in a tournament it was different, each player only had one extra life, he could be reborn only once, and the first team to have no players remaining would lose the match.

"Hehe." Seeing the environment around them, James gave a small smile of happiness. Since his Blessing was based on explosions, the smaller the place, the greater the chance that the explosion would hit.

In a subway station like this, which was quite different from an open field, it practically became the ideal place for him.

With a nod, without saying a single word, Noah ran away separately from the team while using his Pyakugan at 100% to try to locate enemies.

As the station was abandoned, only small streaks of light illuminated the place, greatly affecting the visibility inside the station. Noah knew that he could only use his teleportation when it was really necessary, because the explosion of flames that it would cause would definitely deliver his location to the enemy team.

At that moment, on the other side of the abandoned station, a team in white uniforms with blue stripes forming a number 9 was laughing.

"Hehe, we're really lucky! I want to see what this Lucifer will do in a place as dark as this," a 26-year-old said.

"Hmph, when he teleports to somewhere, before he even appears we will know, and in that moment he will be dead. I doubt his team can do anything without him," said a 22 year old in return.

"You know that Lucifer doesn't have just one skill, right? He's very good at controlling a short dagger, even without teleportation he is still dangerous," a 25-year-old woman said in a serious tone.

Listening to her, the men were a little angry, but as she was the leader, they swallowed the anger they felt and found some excuse.

"But don't worry, our assassin is much better than Lucifer. Even more so in a place like this, her Blessing will be much more useful. I even feel sorry for them," the 26-year-old young man said with pride again, which boosted the team's morale, thinking about how easy it would be to deal with Lucifer's team.

"Hehe, if we are the team that eliminates Lucifer's team or just throw them into the Lower Bracket, all the fame that they have achieved will come over to us... with that, the public will pay more attention to us and maybe we can even make more money with sponsorships."

While they were talking, the assassination of their group was running at full speed using their own Blessing to get a good view of the enemy team.

Having received a Blessing from the god of light when she was younger, she believed that she would become a healer, but when she realized that her Blessing actually manipulated the light to leave her with a semi-transparent silhouette, even being Blessed by the god of light, she knew that the path to follow would be the path of assassination, so she dedicated herself to learning the art of murder with vigor.

She was very confident of being able to kill at least two players on the enemy team before she was discovered, and that was exactly her plan.

But unfortunately for the poor girl, as soon as she ran past a certain position, a certain Pyakugan user noticed a strange movement happened and decided to follow that.

The situation that she believed to be under control, where she would be the predator that would go after the prey of the enemy team, ironically was reversed. She became the prey of an even hungrier predator - a demon with an astute smile that was preparing its own dagger for First Blood.
