Chapter 316

Chapter 0316 “You are confident. It could get you killed,” he told me.

“Then the other player will be eliminated,” I told him, shrugging a shoulder as I turned back to the knives. “This week yes,” Levi said, folding his arms across his chest. “But next week will be death matches and that confidence of we won’t save you”

worry about that next week,” I replied simply without looking at him.

“I’ll worn He was quiet for a moment before he barked out laughter, startling me once more. I turned to look at him and he ran his fingers through his hair.

“Well, you’ve certainly impressed me already Miss Montague,” he told me, turning to walk away. “I just hope you live to see the end.”

And with those parting words, he walked away.

I turned back to the knives, my mind already made up. I grabbed them and wandered back towards the others who were patiently waiting. While I stood with the others, I took my time putting the knives in certain parts of my attire. I wedged one in each of my combat boots, another in the back pocket of my legs, and others in each of my front pockets. The handles were black and blended in with my leggings well enough.

At that moment I was glad I chose the ones with the pockets.

Tabby saw me as I walked onto the arena with the others. She glanced behind me at the others who were carrying their weapons and practicing. Then her eyes studied me, noticing the knives in my boots and pockets, her eyes widening “You got here early?” She asked when I approached I nodded.

“Apparently, I was chosen as a top 5. We got to choose our weapons first,” I told her. “There’s limited supplies of each weapon so you better get there fast,” I proceeded to warn “Congrats,” she said, a small frown on her lips. Her tone was almost dismissive, and I could tell her mind was elsewhere. I couldn’t tell if she was happy for me... or upsee “Well good luck out there,” she added as she sauntered over to the others who were lining up to choose their weapons next.

“Judy!” I turned to see Sammy walking towards me with a right smile. “Good luck today. I came to support you.”

I was surprised to see her; I thought she would be with her boyfriend supporting him, not supporting the competition.

“What about your boyfriend?” I asked. “Shouldn’t you be on his team?”

She shrugged.

“He’s Group A so he already went yesterday,” she explaine “How did lie do?” I asked, not wanting to make it sound like I was fishing for information, even though I was. It Edn’t hurt to find out where the others stood.

He did time. He had to see a medie for a minor injury, but he cleared him for the next round,” she told me. “He left me all alone today. Something about working out with is buddies, So, I figured I’d come here and show you Some support.”

“Well, I could use all the support I could get. I’ve never actually used these things before,” I admitted, patting my pockets that held the knives. “But I’ve used daggers, so I’m sure they aren’t much different. Just smaller, thinner, and much lighter than I’m used to.”

She frowned.

“You should have chosen a weapon you were good at to increase your chances,” she told me. “You could get hurt, if you aren’t careful.”

“What better way to impress the judges?” I asked, smirking. “I might even impress myself.”

She chuckled.

“Well, good luck. Maybe we can hang out later?” She suggested. “I kind of wanted to do a girl’s night or something. Friends don’t come easy to me and you and Nan seem like really fun girls.”

“That would be great. If you see Nan, can you tell her to wall for me after the match?”

“Sure,” she said, then she turned and sauntered off.

I went towards the center of the arena to prepare for the battle and get into position. My eyes wandered around the stadium until they found Gavin, seated with the other Lyca Chairmen. Lycan Mica was talking to him, but he didn’t seem to be paying attention.

His eyes were on me.

I held his eyes for a long while, time seeming to stand still. My heart was pounding heavily in my chest as heat rose in my cheeks. It was only when I saw Alpha Levi staring at me that I managed to pull my eyes away from where they were seated.

“Welcome to the second portion of the competition,” the announcer spoke through the loudspeaker, silencing the murmuring audience. “This time you will be using weapons. Killing is forbidden, and if it’s done, you’ll be eliminated. This is not a death match. You are judged based on your skills using weapons and your ability to aim properly. Medics are nearby; if you are too injured to continue, you’ll be taken to the infirmary and eliminated from the competition. Good luck.”

The crackling of the loudspeaker made me flinch and then the announcer spoke again after a long pause. “3... 2. 1. Begin!”
