Chapter 252: Horny (1/2)
Meanwhile, Agata wiped the sweat on her forehead and walked to Alea, the person who just defeated her. She extended her hand with a smile. ”I guess I understand the reason why you're the team leader…”
Diego stared at Agata with a mysterious gaze as the latter noticed Alea's state and assured, ”Don't worry. The effect will be gone in ten to fifteen minutes. As long as you're in the waiting room with your teammates, you won't attack a random person. Besides, it's not like you're going to do it with your boy—Ahem, teammate, right?”
Alea took a deep breath and shook her head, only to find her senses were greatly enhanced as her mind became fuzzy.
”Well, you can also seek professional help, but my skill won't leave a permanent effect, especially to a person with a strong mentality like you.” Agata then turned to Diego. ”I believe this is fine, right?”
”If the effect disappears within fifteen minutes, yes. If not, we will need to seek professional help along with some penalty to the entire team.” Diego nodded with a calm expression then looked at Alea. ”Will that be alright?”
Alea nodded her head timidly as she just wanted to hide right now.
As Alea was about to turn around, Agata hugged her while whispering something to her before leaving the arena with a smile.
Alea's face was red as she couldn't bear it anymore. She quickly ran to the waiting room, which was right after the gate.
Upon entering the room, Alea quickly leaped to Ellen and hugged her waist, burying her face on her lap.
”Wha—” Ellen was surprised because she didn't have time to congratulate her. ”Alea, what's wrong?”
Alea didn't answer her. No, she couldn't reply unless she wanted others to see her expression.
Ellen was a bit worried about her, but Phyrill stated, ”I think it's some sort of aftereffect of the enemy skill or the drawback of her own skill. According to the rule book, if it's the former and the effect lasts longer than thirty minutes, hindering someone from participating in the next round, our enemy will be disqualified. The home country will also need to make sure she recovers while receiving some punishment. Seeing the entire situation is not that bad, I think it will be gone sooner or later.”
”Is that so?” Ellen was still a bit worried, but she decided to trust him. ”I understand. If you need anything, please tell me, okay, Alea?”
Alea slightly nodded her head and kept her face down.
Phyrill then turned to Theo. ”So, what's our plan for the next one? Will you and I go out this time?”
”I have two scenarios. The first scenario requires a sacrifice from Ellen and Sihan.”
”Us?” Ellen widened her eyes while glancing over Sihan.
”Yes. You will be the one fighting in the next round. You can think of it as us throwing the match or concealing your skill for the next round. That's up to you. If you can't accept this, I and Phyrill will need to go forward, even if it means lowering the chance for us to win.”
Ellen furrowed her eyebrows as no one liked to be a sacrifice for the team. Still, Ellen agreed with one question. ”I can accept that condition, but I want to know how slim our winning chance is if it's the latter?”
”Thirty percent. The former is eighty percent.”
