If you're always so defensive, you won't be able to have a fun game...
"Hmph, what exactly is your purpose? Do you think we don't know?" Jonar was the first to speak, wanting to give his senior more time to guard against this guy's various attacks.
so……
He wanted to test this guy's intentions.
"My goal is very simple: to win this game!"
Niou began his move unintentionally, already setting up his strategy. Niou's matches were always based on mental power, and those who had fought against him less often couldn't detect his mental power. Sometimes it was a stomp of his foot, sometimes a wave of his hand; his mental power appeared exceptionally abruptly, catching people off guard.
And today...
The two guys opposite me don't seem to be the type who have made great progress in mental power.
After all, those capable of developing other dimensions possess exceptional mental strength, but even "exceptional" strength varies in rank and condition. Judging from Nioh's assessment, these two fall into the above-average category…
More?
That's a matter of opinion, and different people will have different perspectives.
Especially when compared to him, it's even harder to say!
"Speaking of which, I've seen your outfit from last time. While it was quite unique and there's nothing wrong with it, don't you both think there were some mistakes in your combination?"
The sudden mention of doubles caught both Jonah and Edgar off guard. They hadn't expected this topic to come up so suddenly. Shouldn't they be playing a match right now? Why were they talking about this?
What is this guy up to? There's a feeling that some kind of conspiracy is brewing in the shadows, but it's hard to say what it is. They didn't want to talk to him, but Niou's mouth started chattering on and on.
For example~
“I think that although doubles emphasizes teamwork, that teamwork is something that comes naturally. When two people stand there, they are a perfect match. But when you two stood there before, it didn’t seem like you had that feeling. Did you just meet recently?”
Niou's words can be quite hurtful at times. "Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying you two are the kind of partners who just met. I'm just saying that compared to my friends, they've been partners for years, and they've always only had each other by their side..."
The benevolent king was asking a question he already knew the answer to.
He knew, of course, that the two people opposite him had a huge age difference and could not possibly be like his group of peers who were of similar age and could often sit together to train.
But as mentioned before, language on the field is also a form of competition, and he did it on purpose. As for whether this matter will affect the two of them.
Haha, he doesn't care if I'm the one to say it, or if there's a rift in our relationship. That's your business. Whether you can withstand that rift is also your business...
“You…” Younger Jonar was naturally very unhappy with what he was being said.
He clearly had a very good relationship with his senior, he respected him greatly, and he also hoped to become his senior's partner.
He has always tried his best to be a qualified partner to his senior, but this guy seems to negate all his efforts with just one sentence. Does he think he is not a qualified partner? No, he is very qualified.
When Niou saw his expression, he knew that everything he had said and done was worthwhile. This was the effect he was looking for. It would have been terrible if there had been no effect at all.
Hehe, being young has its advantages; it's so easy to be provoked.
"Hey, don't overthink it. That's not what I meant. If you're upset right now, it just proves that you don't think you're a good partner. Do you really think you're not good enough?"
Niou said as he retorted.
"I don't need you to remind me. Of course, I'm a qualified partner, perfectly qualified..."
There's no need to prove anything further, and Jonah wanted to shout this out loud.
"That'll do then~" Niou said with a grin, and casually raised his hand and lightly stepped on a small field that unfolded beneath his feet.
No one noticed...
Then~
"Ghost King, please do nothing from now on. I know you are still very perceptive!"
He turned around and gave an extra instruction to the person behind him: if Oni Jujiro broke free on his own, all his plans would be in vain. This is the worst thing about doubles matches. Although he could force him, wouldn't it be better to resolve everything quietly?
He's naturally a rather lazy person and prefers to do everything quietly.
"Alright!" Actually, Oni Jujiro couldn't figure out what Niou had done, but when Niou said that, he knew that something had probably already begun, just not yet noticed by everyone. And what Niou really wanted was still unclear…
Undeniably, it seems they've all fallen into this person's trap. Whether they can extricate themselves depends on their own abilities, but it's highly unlikely they will.
Oni Jujiro didn't say anything. He silently stood in the last row, hoping that he wouldn't step into Niou's other dimension or spiritual power, and hoping that he could be the only one to escape.
Looking at his seemingly unattainable demeanor, Niou couldn't help but laugh inwardly.
Honestly, he's not some terrifying hungry wolf, so why is everyone avoiding him like this?
He is clearly a very kind person, and as a teammate, he has always been very reliable. So why do all the other teammates avoid him?
To be honest, it's really sad and utterly baffling.
Oni Jujiro: "..."
Judging from this guy's expression, you can tell he's thinking about something terrifying, so you absolutely can't get too close to him, or he'll definitely trick you.
