The Radiant Monarch slightly raised his chin, a smirk playing on his lips, his eyes filled with seven parts disdain and three parts pride. "Dark Night, a loss is a loss. Shouting and yelling is truly unbecoming of your manners."
Lu Manman covered her mouth. They were indeed the same kind of people. Hahaha, this is so funny. Kids are really cute.
The Dark Emperor regained his domineering aura, "Radiance! You want me to admit defeat? You'll have to provide evidence. Now, pull up your game completion records."
“Easy!” The Radiant Emperor turned his head and raised his eyes slightly. Immediately, some henchmen, uh, no, some children stepped forward.
I brought up my playthrough history on my control panel. The history showed that when the Radiant Monarch reached level 5, he was only two seconds faster than the Dark Emperor.
Moreover... their completion time was also very short, and they only completed almost half of the game...
This suggests that they also have a helper who faces a similar long road.
The Dark Night Emperor looked behind him and asked, "Where's your other team member?"
The Radiant Monarch: "We just formed a team to clear the levels. Now that we've cleared them all, it's time to leave."
The Dark Emperor declared firmly, "I want to see him!"
The Glorious Monarch: "Go find him yourself if you want to see him."
"You said it yourself." The Dark Emperor raised his hand and opened his contacts, about to press a button.
But then he heard a sneer from the other side, "You're really useless. You only know to call your family when you lose. You keep saying I cheated, but why don't you think about how you beat the game so quickly? I don't believe you didn't help me!"
At first, the Radiant Monarch did indeed seriously choose a random teammate and proceeded with the level in a proper manner.
But a secret source reported that the Dark Emperor's side passed through the checkpoints like rockets. Humph! Since he's so ruthless, we shouldn't blame him for being unjust either. Anyone can find help.
Upon hearing this, the Dark Emperor temporarily lowered his hand. "I genuinely wanted to compete with you. This person was randomly matched by me; I was just luckier than you. As for you..."
The Dark Emperor chuckled dismissively, "I don't believe you can have as much luck as me."
"That's right! Your luck can't compare to our king's; you're cheating!"
"Cheating! Cheating! Cheating!..."
The kids from the Dark Night Emperor's team started shouting.
The kid from the opposing team, the Radiant Monarch, started shouting, "A bet's a bet! A bet's a bet! A bet's a bet..."
Good heavens! Lu Manman exclaimed, "Good heavens! This is amazing! Luckily, she didn't miss it!"
Oh, and you could record a video to show your grandfathers; they'd definitely love it.
Lu Manman wasn't very familiar with the game's control panel yet, and it took her a while to find the screen recording function. As soon as she clicked on it, she discovered that the Dark Night Emperor had already walked up to her.
Lu Manman: "...What are you doing?"
The Dark Emperor, unusually, spoke with a hint of flattery and pleading, "Brother! Help me! I have many limited edition mechs; you can choose whichever you like."
Lu Manman looked completely bewildered. "What's going on? How can I help?"
It turns out that while Lu Manman was looking for the camera, the two kids had already reached an agreement.
The Night Queen seized on the loophole that the Radiant Monarch started the challenge 3 seconds earlier than them, and refused to acknowledge their achievement. So they reached a consensus that she would represent the Night Queen's faction in a duel against the mysterious teammate of the opposing faction.
Whoever wins truly wins, and the competition ends there.
Having overcome so many challenges together, the Dark Night King was quite confident in Lu Manman's abilities.
"This..." Lu Manman hesitated, "Isn't a duel a bad idea?"
"Don't worry, it'll be a private duel, just for the people around us to watch. And whether you win or not, you'll get one of my limited edition mechs. If you win, you'll also get a promise from me: this game was developed by my family, and I'm really good at it."
"Okay, I'll give it a try."
Lu Manman thought about it and agreed. This kid was quite righteous and generous in the end. Moreover, if she could really get his promise, she could use it on the grandfathers, and maybe the grandfathers would be able to play with the mecha more easily.
The Dark Emperor breathed a sigh of relief, turned to look at the Radiant Monarch, and resumed his usual aloof demeanor.
"Where are your men? Why haven't they arrived yet?"
The Radiant Monarch said confidently, "What are you afraid of? I'm not in a hurry to win what's rightfully mine, so why are you in such a rush?"
As soon as the words were spoken, the Dark Emperor and the Radiant King locked eyes, their gazes clashing as if sparks flew.
They've been rivals since they were kids, and this time, in front of so many of their subordinates, they have to win.
The children behind the two men glared angrily, rubbing their hands together as if any slight movement could trigger a major battle.
In this environment, Lu Manman unconsciously slowed his breathing and felt a little nervous.
Just then, several adults passed by, glanced at the scene briefly, and quickly looked away.
After a while, a voice rang out and reached Lu Manman's keen ears.
"Tsk! It's those two brats again. They never stop coming here, almost every day.
"It's so good to be young! You're so energetic, my inner chuunibyou is stirring again."
"Ha! It was true the first few times, but after seeing it every day, I've gotten tired of it and can't get excited anymore."
"Good idea! I'm afraid my son will be led astray by them. No, I'll have to forbid my son from coming to the newbie village from now on."
Thinking of the little brats behind those two little brats, and then thinking of their own children, everyone nodded in agreement.
"That's right, that's something we really need to pay attention to. Just to be on the safe side, we should probably keep an eye on each other's kids."
"Okay! It's settled then!"
"..."
The road ahead is long: ...
Yes! Why is she so nervous? She really should stay away from them. She's almost being led astray by this king and monarch.
At this moment, Lu Manman has returned to her adult form, and looking at the two groups of people, she just thinks they are so cute and adorable.
Lu Manman was engrossed in reading when a magnetic voice sounded from behind her.
"Where are they? Hurry up, I'm in a rush."
"Dark Night, my men have arrived. You're doomed!"
The glorious monarch was overjoyed. He left a message and strode toward the man with an air of indifference.
Everyone looked at the newcomer. Lu Manman also turned her head to look. It was a silver-haired boy with the ID [Lonely Strongman], who looked very impatient.
The Radiant Monarch walked to the man's side, his back to the crowd, his face pleading, and muttered softly, "Brother, please don't be so arrogant. You're making me lose face and authority. How am I supposed to command respect then?"
The sound was extremely faint; if Lu Manman hadn't possessed supernatural abilities that enhanced her hearing, she wouldn't have been able to hear it either.
However, the silver-haired boy was clearly not buying it and turned to leave.
The Radiant Monarch quickly reached out and grabbed him, "Brother, don't go, please, please. After it's done, I'll immediately give you the important clues I have. Haven't you been looking for her all this time?"
Thinking that his younger brother's intelligence network was indeed quite good, the silver-haired boy stopped in his tracks. "Then let's hurry up."
Seeing that the silver-haired youth had calmed down, the Radiant Monarch felt much more at ease. He unleashed his full domineering aura and glanced at the Dark Night Emperor, "Everyone's here. Let's begin!"
