I like them big, do you?-Chapter 127: Yvonne vs. Aria

While the new quest had pointed Reylin as the main enemy, his girlfriend strutted toward Yvonne's location.

That location wasn't a secret, as Yvonne couldn't be a freeloader.

She, as the queen, had too much freedom. Now, this whole event was a place where she would prove herself.

Two players had fallen prey to her skills...

Yvonne's portals had become better as well, and she was ready to win the whole tournament so that the king would bless her with his own 'teleportation' skills and knowledge.

"Reylin..." Yvonne whispered while looking at the sudden quest.

That man used to be cute.

At first, he was too cute, actually.

Then, he became different, and different, then unbearable.

His strength rose so much that Yvonne wasn't sure of her victory against him. She also couldn't recognize him anymore!

Nonetheless, Yvonne was sure that she would be able to rekindle his feelings for her should they face each other.

Alas, it was his girlfriend who would face her!

"Yvonne... You have really returned here," Lioness' voice assailed Yvonne from behind.

Yvonne spun and faced her, "You... It's you, Aria." A surprise flashed on her face, but Yvonne quickly hid it beneath her lofty mask.

She arched her head back and confronted Aria in a staring contest.

Aria's words also piqued her interest...

Seeing her expressionless face yet confused eyes, Lioness chuckled, "Reylin told me you don't believe in anyone. I assumed you also wouldn't trust your troops. Guess what? I was right."

Yvonne had killed a player, but troops were left alone.

The task of killing the leftovers was passed to them, and Yvonne's troops didn't disappoint. Alas, no matter how well they would do, their queen would always check each of their moves personally.

That was precisely what had happened right now.

Lioness waited for Yvonne to personally return and check whether her troops had killed all enemies and left no one behind.

"What are you playing at? Oh? Perhaps, you are worried that Reylin is still into me, so you want to show how strong you are? That's cute, Aria," Yvonne smiled dazzlingly, enchanting the whole world that was watching the clash between these two.

It was a verbal clash so far.

Verbal because Lioness didn't resolve a sneaky attack.

She could've left a deep wound on Yvonne as the red-haired woman didn't even feel an ounce of Lioness' presence.

Still, Aria didn't go for it, "Since you are such an insecure woman, you've come here alone. That leaves you weaker. I am not going to let you call your troops, but I also won't attack you sneakily."

Aria replied, then strutted toward Yvonne, "And I don't have anything to prove for him. He's too much into me already, as I am not a cheap bitch like you."

"Cheap... bitch?" Yvonne repeated, her eyes widening as indignation contorted her face.

Aria laughed, "That Master behind this whole event is your sponsor, isn't he? You hit a wall, so you sided with the dark matter dudes... Then, you just use them left and right while not even believing in the king's troops... Do I see it right? You are scared he keeps an eye on you?"

Lioness' sword moved in a horizontal slash.

That was the order to her troops.

In an instant, the red lightning slapped Yvonne.

[You have been taunted.]

It was one of Lioness' trademarks! Her troops were so well trained, but her training and keen eyes allowed them to reach perfection!

The Taunt Perfection.

Yvonne was pinned down, and even when she used skills to erase the crowd control, Lioness' troops maintained that skill well.

Their master, Aria Lion, didn't stop at all.

She looked relaxed and confident, flaring up the world with her presence and beautiful looks! She lifted her sword, then prepared for a quick thrust!

That was when Yvonne smiled.

That smile was like a taunt.

Aria answered with her skill!

Shhh!

Her sword silently tore through the air, leaving silent vibrations. Should that weapon leave even a scratch on Yvonne's body, it would start terrifying bleeding and rip her asunder!

Alas, Aria's sword disappeared in a small portal!

"You can't touch me," Yvonne sneered.

Lioness took out another sword, "I figured so." That was yet another spare sword she would use against this woman!

To no avail, however.

Yvonne could use her skills despite all crowd control.

Creating portals and promptly closing them to break her opponents' skills and weapons was one of her known moves.

Yvonne excelled at that, and she didn't need anyone to guide her in that aspect.

At last, Lioness ordered her troops to send their long-distance projectiles. 𝗳r𝗲𝙚w𝐞𝚋𝘯𝚘ѵ𝗲l.𝑐oｍ

Yvonne's eyes rose, and she just glanced at the arrows and magic bolts going her way. She quickly retracted those to Aria, then smiled widely.

All those attacks disappeared a few inches before Yvonne.

Naturally, Aria also let out another sword slash, a futile attempt.

Yvonne grinned, revealing her white teeth, "Even if you sold all companies, you wouldn't be able to get a vase-like me. I am far more beautiful and stronger than you... Even your daddy selling all shares wouldn't help. You can only try."

A few portals appeared again, but their projections let out Aria's attacks this time! All that had been swallowed just now was spat through those portals.

Aria naturally paid attention to every detail around Yvonne.

Those portals didn't surprise her, and her sword fended off all attempts to take her down!

Yvonne knew, however, that it wouldn't be enough to end this confrontation!

Her eyes squinted, and she focused heavily!

That was when Lioness lifted her right hand, "Rawr!"

In an instant, Yvonne's focus stopped.

[You have been frightened by the powerful Lioness!]

'Powerful? That sounded far from powerful!' Yvonne cursed at the system message before her eyes!

As for the whole world, they watched Lioness using one of her new skills, [Lion's Roar], for the first time.

That was its debut, a debut on a bigger scale!

Poor Lioness didn't know that she would become quite popular later on!

That 'Rawr' was just too cute!

During her time in the Burial Ground Dungeon, Lioness tried various skills. That one was particularly useful as it rendered everyone frightened... Of course, it depended on the user and opponent.

The user was quite mysterious as Lioness' mighty roars didn't sound intimidating at all.

Lion Ghost shook his head each time he heard her screaming out of her lungs.

Out of spite, Aria did a cute Rawr.

She sounded cute, like a kitty!

Alas, a kitty she was not!

[You have inflicted Lioness' Asunder Claw!]

[-3450 HP!]

[-500 HP!]

"Ahhhhh!" Yvonne cried as the sword cut through her face!

It was a near-perfect horizontal slash.

It left a deep wound on Yvonne's face, which burst out with blood. A lot of blood oozed out of that slash and smeared itself on her face.

"I missed one eye," Lioness sighed.

She was about to let out a combo of her swordsmanship!

But that one wound on Yvonne's face was what triggered her.

She had never felt this much pain, and what was that excessive bleeding?!

-500 HP per second was just too ridiculous!

Yvonne howled, "I won't miss even an inch!"

Her portal spread beneath Lioness' feet!

Of course, Yvonne had been practicing her skills all the time. Still, she couldn't teleport people, and her portals killed everything within!

Her skills mattered not, right now.

Once that woman entered her portal, Yvonne was sure she would win it!

The lioness had no room to escape.

Even if she ran with everything she got, it wouldn't suffice.

A portal's light swallowed her, then she disappeared!

She disappeared for at most five seconds.

However, for Yvonne and people from the stream, those five seconds tickled sluggishly. An excitement surged after Aria came out from the portal!

Yvonne felt nothing but dread.

Aria came out with her HP more than half! "I am a vase too, I would say... It doesn't really matter whether I am beautiful or not. I am fine as long as my sweetie keeps pampering me every day.

Still, I am a vase with countless cracks. Precisely because of those cracks, I still stand while you... bow before me, you cheap bitch," Aria sneered.

Her sword rose.

Blood trickled down its shaft.

Although it looked like blood was pouring out from every pore, Lioness fared well within the portal and survived through her Lioness Spirit. That heavily relied on luck and her endurance, but she had gone through a lot!

Unlike Yvonne, who had fallen onto her knees, Aria was one tough lady!

Yvonne's red hair and eyes paled, and she looked like someone had turned off the light for her. It was as if the world blew that dazzling and mesmerizing candle called Yvonne.

But as it looked like the whole world had given up on her, the king did not.

A woman on the verge of despair was quite an easy target or at least the dark matter king thought so.

His hand came out of the portal, and just before Lioness killed Yvonne, he saved her.

Aria narrowed her eyes, then smiled, "You should open your eyes if you are looking out for the queen... Hmm... Maybe, you should actually close them."

The king didn't answer.

He saved Yvonne and brought her to his chamber.

Left alone with her troops, Lioness took out her potions and drank those rapidly.

That was when one of her troops attacked her!

"It's not like we didn't expect it..." Lioness whispered as she defended herself.

However, expecting was one thing, and saving herself was another.

She couldn't face those troops with such a state.

That was precisely why Lioness lost...

She lost and died while bitch Yvonne survived and had her face treated in the king's chamber!

Hans took care of her...
