'My papa is definitely going to punish me!' Saddened, she sulked while wiping the bloodstains from her cheeks.
She knew that her performance was beyond trash, and there was nothing much she could say to explain herself.
However, the spectators didn't share the same view, as they were astounded by her fascinating abilities and techniques.
To this point, they still had no idea what was her true element. They assumed it was wind-based because she used Tornados, but that beam of light raised some doubts.
Zoe didn't keep them wondering for long, as she took a deep breath and explained what exactly happened during that battle. "Before you understand her abilities you must first know her elements!"
She swiped her finger at a small screen and displayed all of Princess Bird's known information in plain sight. There was no reason to hold back anymore. She then pointed at the two logos of elements. One had the shape of a wind gale, and the other had a hexagon shape!
"She is a dual Elementalist! A user of Wind and Gems!"
The spectators either had shocked expressions or knowing smiles at her revelation. After all, not everyone was unfamiliar with Princess Bird, as some minority already were fans of her and followed her through those few games she played. Yet, they didn't have a club like Felix or Mastermania.
They were too few to have one. Thus, they had no plans to further increase their fandom by exposing Princess Bird's abilities to all.
"The Sapphire Apex Eagle is one of the few dual Elementalist beasts that use wind for offense and mobility, while gems for defense and beauty!"
She highlighted all of the abilities she used and explained only *Dazzle*. As for the other two *Sapphire Apex Wings* and *Feather Spray*? They were self-explanatory.
"Dazzle is the ultimate ability of her legendary bloodline. It blocks anyone who was exposed to the beam of light from using their abilities temporarily. Whether passives or actives!"
She raised her voice higher after seeing their looks of understanding. "That's right! The reason the parasite couldn't use her rejuvenation was due to it."
A truly befitting ability of the gems element. After all, gems like diamonds, ruby, and sapphires were known for two things, dazzling beauty, and hardness. This further explained why her wings had such overpowered defenses!
The spectators figured as much from her clarification, and actually even more so, as they managed to understand that *Furious Tornado* was actually her permanent ability that she etched in her 1% after breaking through the first stage of replacement. Plus it must be an ability from a legendary bloodline as well!
It was pretty clear after she combined *Furious Tornado* and *Feather Spray*, creating *Sapphire Feathers Tornado* technique!
It was common knowledge that the only way to create techniques was to combine two different abilities from different bloodlines. it didn't matter if it was a passive from tier 1 bloodline, combined with tier 7 active bloodline.
Princess Bird obviously got this technique from her father instead of creating it by herself.
The process of creating techniques was far more deadly than one could understand. If it wasn't so, bloodliners wouldn't bother competing to join strong clans.
But that was another matter entirely.
...
After a couple of minutes of sitting, Princess Bird finally stood up with hands on her knees as support. She was truly too tired to make any large movement. However, the epic chest was still in front of her, gleaming with a purplish light.
Princess or not, nothing beats the feeling of obtaining a reward by one's own effort. Thus, she was pretty excited to open the chest. Not to mention the fact that she was probably going to be the first ranker after obtaining the points inside, surpassing Felix!
She smiled cutely and walked towards it under the cheers of the audience.
This was it, the moment they were waiting for. An actual normal opening for an epic chest. The way Felix kept opening them traumatized them greatly. At this point, they just wanted for Princess Bird to open it normally without any dramatic additions.
'Am I going to be rewarded with 1500 GP or more?'
Princess Bird extended her hand with anticipation clearly written on her face.
Boom!
However, a sudden explosion in the sky made her pause her action and glance at it. It wasn't only her who had their attention stolen by the explosion. But every player was affected by it and lifted their heads as well.
]Landlord has obtained 1400 GP from an epic chest![
The moment their eyes landed on those streaking bright words, breath refused to come out of their parted lips. They didn't believe their eyes, neither dared to. The implication was too horrifying for them, especially the hardcore players who were in the wager with Felix.
1400 GP?!
Their minds did a quick calculation and realized that he had a whopping 2900 GP! This was just from those highlighted ones. God knows how many he actually had.
'What a monster. Thank god I left his side.'
Charming Sky's eyelids closed, trying to hide that hint of dread in her eyes. She knew that he must have slain the Terror Serpent to get that many points. She just didn't think it would be this fast!
Heck, it wasn't even 20 minutes before she left him alone. To actually murder the serpent that brutalized her minions in that small window of time. She honestly had no idea what to think of him anymore.
'It seems that the wager ended pretty early. Tsk, it wasn't even a competition, but just one-sided bullying.'
Her thought was exactly what coursed through everyone's minds. The players who didn't participate in the wager with that monster rejoiced and laughed out loud at the misfortune of those stuck up hardcore players.
They truly wanted to see their facial expressions right now. They were certain that it must be a screen saver worthy picture.
They were definitely correct in their guess, as the majority of the wager participants either crouched down with their heads lowered, or screamed and punched anything in plain sight. Their faces were clouded with despair at the thought of losing all the points they worked hard to obtain.
It turned out, Miss figure wasn't the only one who was acting as a GP farmer for Felix. But even them!
...
"Hahahahah! Serves you right!" Miss figure wiped her tears of joy at the miserable fate of those bastards who laughed at her before. The rest of her party didn't interrupt her good mood and left her to laugh to her heart content.
After a while, she left a few chuckles and kept on moving forward, avoiding any beast she met like they were plagues.
She wasn't a retard to fight them just to end up giving everything to Felix. In fact, she never touched a single beast or chest since the moment she dropped in the maze!
That was the real reason why her party was pleased with her. She never contended with GP for them. The only thing she asked for was the right for a single item from the chests of the hidden compartment, which was honestly pretty unlikely to happen. Hidden compartments weren't like cabbages in a market after all.
'Heh, GP farmer? In your dreams.' She smirked.
...
Meanwhile, Princess Bird kept standing in front of the chest with her head lowered, hiding her expression from everyone. Her clutched fists were the only indication that she was extremely displeased.
Honestly, it was quite understandable. After all, she struggled and used everything to slay the beast. In the end, the joy of bragging to the rest of the players was robbed from her by Felix. Now, even if she opened the chest, it wouldn't have the same flavor and effect.
The players were already shocked by the fireworks twice, it wouldn't matter much if she added the 3rd one.
'Landlord! You hateful prick!' She lifted her head and eyed the chest in front of her with her small fangs-baring slightly.
The spectators felt a sudden chill after seeing that look. Their gut feeling screamed at them that the next view wasn't going to please them.
Too bad, their instinct wasn't gaslighting them, as Princess Bird lifted her petite leg and struck the chest wide open in such a forceful manner, the lid bounced two times before getting fixed!
"Noooooooooooo!!!"
"Kill me already! Is it too much to ask for a normal opening?!"
"Landlord! You demon, I curse you!"
The spectators were truly about to lose their shit at Landlord's constant meddling in their entertainment.
Although Princess Bird was the one who kicked the chest open, they didn't blame her nor get mad at her. They understood that she wanted to vent her rage of being robbed, and the poor chest was simply the only target that was on her sight.
What truly caused this farce was Felix's long-distance meddling. The bastard didn't let them enjoy their time even though the camera wasn't on him. He was truly like a ghost haunting them down.
Phew! Boom!
]Birds Call has obtained 1450 GP From epic chest!
