"Are you ready?"
Linsey, Nene, Jasmine, and I were prepared to attend the party. My all-purpose suit was convenient, and Linsey had prepared for Nene's dress. Nene had a vibrant black dress for those who were wondering.
"Boss, I'm good."
"I'm ready to go."
"Me too~!"
With all that said. Linsey teleported us to a different place.
The place where we were teleported was at the entrance of a building. It was not only us, but a few others teleported to the same place as us.
Without wasting any time, Linsey took the lead, and Nene, Jasmine, and I followed her.
"These three are with me."
Linsey already had her pass and showed it to the guard. Confirming that the pass was accurate, the guard let us in.
Entering the place, I couldn't help but be amazed by the structure of the place. It was much nicer than the Burgess family rental place. Describing it with words would only do injustice to this place.
"Boss~! Isn't that the lady you call "Bitch"~!"
The "Bitch" that Nene had called out loud had heard what Nene had said. She had walked over menacingly with three other people.
"Shrimp, I didn't think you would arrive this early. Must be hard with those little legs of yours."
"Still haven't gotten control of your emotions? Must be hard to deal with your outburst every day."
Another fight... Ignoring those two, I began to observe the other three. They weren't precisely human like me.
The three of them, like Amanda, had pale skin with a red tail coming from their back. The devil race is a race that specializes in magic.
Seeing that I was observing them made them wary of me. I then looked back at both Linsey and Amanda. They were fighting, and from the looks of it, they wouldn't stop any time soon.
"Linsey, Amanda. It's been a while. Nice to see you both get along so well."
A third party had shown up. She had scarlet hair making her the center of attention. Hearing the voice of the woman, both of them stopped fighting.
"Amira..."
The both of them said, looking at her.
"Nene, want to walk around? I feel they're going to be at it for a while."
"Let's go~!"
"You two stay."
Linsey, who heard us, told us to stay. It looks like we can't have fun. Linsey said that both Amanda and Amira looked at us.
"Are these two going to be your competitors? They don't look strong. My three competitors would destroy yours."
Amanda gloated while laughing. I then looked at her competitors again and then looked back at Linsey. She nodded, telling me to crush those three.
"If you're so confident, why don't we make a bet? Your three competitors against mine."
"Shorty, you're on!"
"How about I join as well? It would be more amusing if more joined this bet."
The three of them settled on an agreement. Looking at Amira's competitors, I couldn't tell what race they were. They could be completely human, but I wasn't so sure.
"That sounds fun. I'll join as well."
"Me too..."
pαпdα-ňᴏνêι·сóМ "I as well..."
With these three people betting, more joined the bet. Everyone here was treating this like a game. But it wasn't wrong since it was a game to them.
"Jasmine, do you know how to fight? You don't seem like one."
Since the competitors of each branch had brought in three people, that would mean that everyone would've to compete in some way. Jasmine, now ranked 4500, should be better than most, but she was far worse than Nene and me.
"I might not be as monstrous as you and Nene, but I could hold myself well."
"She may not look like it, but she shouldn't be too much of a deadweight~!"
"The way she phrases it pisses me off, but I'm the weakest here."
"Are you sure you should be discussing this in public?"
The only male competitor in Amanda's team walked over and said. The man had long purple hair and blue eyes. He could be attractive in a sense, but he was inferior to me.
"I don't think it matters. It's not like we're telling you guys our powers. Besides, from what we discussed, there's not much going on."
"And I'm not too worried about it. Even if you somewhat know of my strength, it doesn't make it easier for you to win."
What I said wasn't arrogance but a matter of truth. I have gained a lot of power over these past few weeks. And with how much I was growing, my chance of being defeated was low.
"What's your name?"
"Shouldn't you tell me your name first? It's rude to ask for an introduction without introducing yourself."
He scoffed at me, hearing me say that. But in the end, he said his name begrudgingly.
"Blaine."
"I'm Charles."
"Charles..."
Before muttering my name, he left without saying anything else. What's wrong with that guy? He openly went up to me and wanted to talk. But he left without saying much.
"What's his problem..."
"He thinks you're all talk."
Jasmine interrupted. Is that all? Then that is fine. The game for the party will start sooner. He will know his place sooner or later.
"The results will be shown later."
I then looked at Linsey, and she was still arguing with Amanda. Everyone around them was having fun listening to them.
"SADISTIC HAG!"
"OBNOXIOUS BITCH!"
They seem like they're having fun. Linsey had forgotten about us. Nene and one of the devils had tried their best to stop them from fighting.
I walked alone to the party, searching for something to do. Going to the food stand, some of the food there was something I had never seen before.
Which should I get? There is a swampy red dish that made me feel disgusted. They weren't something humans should digest.
"Hey! What are you doing here alone~?"
A feminine yet flirty tone had spoken out to me.
