Gloria's death came as a shock to the crowd, not because they had not seen a card apprentice kill another, but because they did not think Jaya would be the last one standing of the two. The reaction of the crowd to Gloria's death was not out of numbness to cruelty but a realistic reaction fitting the card world. They all have raided dungeons and killed monsters and rivals alike. They understood if you want to kill someone you have to be prepared to be killed. Besides they were all legal adults and were responsible for their choices. Listening to Jaya openly challenge them all, the crowd admired and hated her guts. However, no one came forward to accept her challenge. Jaya had already proven her strength by defeating Gloria. So most of them were not her opponent besides she was gravely injured and also since the battle was being streamed they all understood that they would stand to gain nothing from defeating Jaya in her current condition and would likely gain an ill reputation of bullying. Not to forget if they lost to Jaya in her current condition then they would not be able to show their face anywhere. However, this was only true for a part of the crowd but not for the Cervos and his faction. Seeing Jaya kill Gloria with her deadly energy beam, Cervos was too shocked to react. His followers clamored and roared but none dared to cross the line with JJ and Adriene defending it. Cervos blankly stared at Jaya who killed Gloria and then glanced at JJ and Adriene blocking his way to Jaya before leaving to collect Gloria's free-falling corpse.

Cervos blankly stared at Jaya who killed Gloria and then glanced at JJ and Adriene blocking his way to Jaya before leaving to collect Gloria's free-falling corpse. After retrieving Gloria's corpse, Cervos stared at Jaya grimly and grudgingly replied to her challenge, "I am next." "No, you are not," Adriene immediately protested. "Why not? You heard her, she has issued an open challenge to everyone present here. I have every right to be her next opponent," Cervos responded while glaring at Adriene. Knowing that being emotional would not help his case, Cervos remained calm and replied gauging the circumstance. "You cannot because I am her next opponent," Adriene retorted, heading into the makeshift ring created by the crowd. Her plan was simple, she would fight Jaya so that Cervos would not get the chance to fight Jaya. If it's her, she would render Jaya unconscious, unlike Cervos who planned to kill Jaya even before she killed Gloria. Why was Adriene going to such lengths to stop Jaya from recklessly accepting Cervos's challenge and inviting her death? Adriene did not blame Jaya for her reckless action. Instead, she felt that Jaya's reaction was acceptable for someone who was cornered by a large crowd and forced to fight a death match. Adriene's plan was well and good but how could Cervos not understand what she was up to trying to accept Jaya's challenge before him? He had seen her plans from miles away, Adriene could not be more obvious. "Sorry, but I accepted her challenge first," Cervos said walking into the ring. Seeing him enter the ring Adriene immediately positioned herself between Cervos and Jaya, to protect Jaya from any sneak acts. Adriene would not put sneak acts past Cervos, he was just too despicable. "That doesn't matter since I was in the ring first. So, please leave the ring while I am still being polite," Adriene made up a bullshit argument just for the sake of it. Listening to Adriene, Cervos's calm and cold facial expression morphed into a hideous expression straight out of a revenge novel. However, before he could express his dissatisfaction with Adriene, Jaya suddenly shouted announcing, "I don't care which one of you goes first. Both of you come at me together." Jaya's declaration caught Adriene, Cervos, and the crowd off guard. They felt that Jaya was seeking death to propose something like that. They could not help but wonder if the country chick had a death wish. Until now all signs pointed to it. They pondered if all country gals were as wild and reckless as Jaya. Adriene stared at Jaya, though she did not say it her eyes conveyed, 'Girl, can you shut up? You are making matters worse.' Jaya's eyes however stared right back at Adriene asserting, 'You want a piece of me, come at me bitch, I will rip you one.' She looked like an angry honey badger ready to attack everything in sight. Asides from her confidence in Wyatt, Jaya was pissed at these people, hence she acted so recklessly. These people did not even know her and attacked her right off the bat. Not to mention, they did not even bother to learn her name forget asking for her opinion. It was irritating for her to hear them keep calling her the country hick, cow, country chick, or whatever pleased them. Jaya had it with their fake and pretentious chivalry and concern. All of these people were nothing but vain sociopaths, they all deserved what was coming for them, death. Knowing that this crowd's ultimate target was Wyatt Jaya was sure that these people were seeking death. She thought that they had signed their death warrant the moment they decided to come to Sky Blossom City to challenge Wyatt. "Hahaha, that works for me," Saying that Cervos summoned his grimoire preparing to fight. The only reason Cervos did not go berserk after Gloria's death was that he knew he could not take on JJ and Adriene together. However, if it was just Adriene and the country hick, he had full confidence that not only could he kill Jaya with ease but wipe the floor with Adriene in the process. Soon Cervo's energy signature began to climb from the Card Master realm to the higher realms at an astonishing speed. Seeing that Cervo was preparing his attack without holding anything back for a full-on confrontation Adriene did dare slack off in her preparation. Just then a jet of wind passed from space between Adriene and Cervo at a frightening speed. Due to its speed, they only noticed a humanoid figure in the gust of wind and could not make out who it was. The jet of wind circled back and halted next to Jaya asking aloud, "Is the fight over? Am I late?" "Aurelia, you can fly?" Jaya was baffled to see Aurelia here of all places. "Cindy loaned me a set of her cards," Aurelia answered honestly. The figure that appeared with the gust of wind was none other than Aurelia Malvin. Since it was her first flying and using the summon possession card, it took Aurelia a couple of minutes to understand the mechanics of flying even with the wind rune elemental spirit guiding her. However, she still managed to make it to the edge of the void. Even though she was late her timing couldn't be more perfect. "What about you, how did you manage to get dragged into a death match?" Aurelia asked Jaya, ignoring the gazes of the crowd in the surroundings. "I don't know, ask these crazy bitches. They attacked me on our first meeting, totally unprovoked. Soon, they forced me into a death match with another girl chanting girl fight," Jaya narrated the series of events that led until now. "Don't worry, now that I am here no one will be able to hurt you," Aurelia assured Jaya glancing over the crowd. Listening to Aurelia, Jaya rolled her eyes. But she did not dare to complain as she felt that she was still not a match for Aurelia, especially with her new set of cards that allowed her to manipulate wind. Taking a quick glance at the crowd Aurelia caught a glimpse of Corey among the crowd, she waved her hand signaling Corey to come over. Seeing Aurelia's action, the crowd followed her line of sight and spotted Corey. Then, they finally knew that the cold chick was associated with the country chick and the country tomboy. Yes, the crowd nicknamed Corey the 'Cold Chick' because of her icy authoritative aura, and Aurelia the 'Country Tomboy' because of her dressing in a male tuxedo. None bothered to learn their names. But many noticed the beauty of the trio and wondered if this third-rate city was crawling with beauties. Many made plans to explore the city after their business here was done. Seeing that her identity was exposed, Corey left the crowd and headed to Aurelia and Jaya's side. As she stepped out of the crowd and into the ring, Cervos and Adriene who were preparing for a full-on battle suddenly lost all their momentum and gazed at Corey in shock. Adriene who was near Corey, could not help but retreat feeling Corey's aura. Both Cervos and Adriene looked at Corey, she appeared harmless and did not even seem to spare them a glance but for some reason, their augmented senses rang with the highest level of warning, cautioning them of certain death. They turned to look at each other, locking their eyes they felt the fear for Corey in each other's eyes. It was one thing if it was just them but seeing that the other also felt the same they were sure that the feeling they got from Corey was not simple. They did not dare to act rashly.
