Luck is a Charm

Chapter 162: Points Gathering (I)



Chapter 162: Points Gathering (I)

"Points are varied by luck huh. That's perfect since I'm always lucky." Zen exclaimed happily whenever he heard something related to luck.

He has never been unlucky once so he was guaranteed to obtain the best possible points of variation.

Everyone else simply waited in patience as they glanced at the timer that appeared mid-air when Stuart disappeared.

It was a countdown of their teleportation time and they only had a minute left to prepare themselves in an environment filled with magical beasts and it was the first time where they would work individually or pretend to be a team.

After all, point stealing was possible, and killing people increases your point value as well. 

"Look at the greed in their eyes. One second they felt grievance and anger toward their dead companion because of Stuart and another second later, they wanted to do the same thing as well." Krista Dragoon sneered in disgust at human nature when it comes to their own life.

"Heh, Krista, you're wrong because they are really feeling grievance at the person's death because he was killed by Stuart and not them, meaning they won't get the points." Zen chuckled softly and continued.

"It's going to be an amazing scene to spectate when you see them talking friendly with each other now but once the timer runs down, they're going to talk with magic."

Their magic would be the best communication device to see who's stronger and the loser can only go to the underworld.

The only concern Zen has was if they would teleport randomly again and get separated.

'Shadows, attach yourself to Krista and Leila and protect them if they're in danger.' Zen commanded the shadows without alerting Krista Dragoon and Leila Dragoon.

The shadows simply followed the command as they secretly lurked in the dark and attached themselves to the two princesses' shadows. They have completely concealed their aura and will not make any move unless they are in danger.

This not only served as a bodyguard but a signal for Zen to locate where they are teleported to.

As the timer ticked down to 10 seconds, Zen made sure to hold Krista Dragoon and Leila Dragoon by the waist tightly for additional security.

"Don't struggle and just let me embrace," Zen said cheekily when he noticed Krista Dragoon tried to free herself.

Everyone else was also eager for the countdown to finish as they smiled wickedly at each other. 

3, 2, 1, as the timer counted down to zero, everyone else noticed a large teleportation array in the ground and with a blinking light with large mana fluctuation, everyone on the floor vanished from the area.

WHOOOOSH!

Zen was holding Krista Dragoon and Leila Dragoon by the waist as they fell down to some soft soil ground.

Glancing around, Zen saw trees everywhere and was surprised to realize something.

"The sun" Zen mumbled softly and hurriedly tried to sense his mana and his expression couldn't be any brighter.

"Hahahaha"

Zen started laughing like a maniac, causing Krista Dragoon and Leila Dragoon to look at him with a questionable expression.

"I didn't go crazy so stop looking at me with that expression. Try sensing your mana now." Zen coughed softly and ordered them to concentrate on their mana.

Krista Dragoon was the first one to close her eyes to sense her mana core and gasped in surprise. She glanced at Zen with a cheerful expression.

"T-The restriction is gone and I can feel my mana flowing inside very smoothly." Krista Dragoon hugged Zen in celebration.

Meanwhile, Zen was happy to embrace her like this and started sniffing her beautiful fragrance emitting from her body.

'Women always smell so good, unlike men who are disgusting to the point where I want to cripple them.' Zen exclaimed inwardly as he hugged her tightly until a roar echoed them.

ROAR!

Zen's expression darkened when Krista Dragoon pushed him off to check the incoming magical beast that roared at them. 

'You couldn't wait a damn moment while I enjoyed Krista's warm embrace. Motherfucker go to hell.' Zen cursed inwardly as he summoned his shadow goblins as they hurriedly surrounded the magical beast.

The magical beast turned pale and tried to flee the scene, only to be captured by the goblin shadow before getting pummeled to death.

Shortly after the magical beast died, Zen's orb started beeping and a number with 8 was labeled on the previous zero number.

"Woah, a garbage magical beast like that gave me 8 points when Stuart mentioned we would only get between 1-10 points. My luck is very good and charming indeed." Zen started laughing as he showed off the orb to Krista Dragoon and Leila Dragoon.

Krista Dragoon scoffed as she said, "Hmph, you're not even using your own ability to kill the magical beast. It was the doing of your shadows. This point system is rigged to unfairness."

Zen was rendered speechless by the shameless words uttered by Krista Dragoon. The shadows were created because of his ability and thus in return, the point would naturally go to him and now the shadow.

The shadows needed his mana to operate so it would truly be unfair if he doesn't receive the points.

"Cough, let's try to look for more magical beasts and Romu" Zen tried to divert the topic but when he mentioned Romu, he realized the worker slimes were nowhere to be found.

"Where's Romu and the others?" Zen said slowly, hoping for an answer but there was none since even Krista Dragoon and Leila Dragoon didn't know about their disappearance until now.

"They got separated, it seemed. Looks like we have to find them first while we kill any magical beasts that show up." Krista Dragoon ponders a moment before coming up with a plan.

Zen nodded his head in agreement as he sensed the link between him and Romu. 

"They're in the East of us so we should get going now," Zen exclaimed as he started walking the East side while hoping that the magical beast they encountered and killed would gain him some points.
