BXBX NOVEL Chapter 72 Mind Games Or Serious?
"Guys, please welcome the Faded Guild," the commentator said. The members of the Faded guild followed behind their captain Aman and entered the Battle Arena.
"It is led by Aman, who will play the role of Swordsman in the team, and behind him is their MVP Dani, who will be Mage," he continued. The video of their guild\'s best moment was shown first, followed by their stats.
"In the second round, Faded was ranked 10; they performed admirably. Their team will consist of a tank, two knights, one swordsman, and a mage, which is different from the norm," said the observer.
"Please accept their adversaries, the tournament\'s best-performing guild, which appeared out of nowhere and rose to the top of the All-Stars." The commentator announced. On screens, they displayed the logo and name of All-STARS on the screen, followed by a video of their best moments.
It included footage of Rishi dispatching three assassins, as well as footage of Dilip eliminating three opponents in a row. The video then stopped, and the stadium\'s lights went out.
The audience was perplexed when they heard a massive explosion as All-STARS members entered one by one from the Star shape made up of fire. "Here come the All-Stars; today, they have made many changes in their team composition for today\'s battle," the commentator said. "In today\'s battle, Dilip will lead them."
"They will be accompanied by a tank, a knight, an archer, and two spearmen. From their side, two new players will join Lalit, a first-year student who will play the role of a tank, and Ajit, who will play the role of a knight."
"Let us now look at their statistics. Their Captain Dilip is ranked third on the Kills leaderboard; he will be the Ace player for All-Stars, and in Rishab\'s absence, Jay will be responsible for ranged attack."
"Jay, their archer, also performed admirably in the previous battle, finishing second on the leaderboard for assists."
"Will he be able to turn the tide of the battle today? Substituting two players simultaneously, on the other hand, will be a fatal error for All-Stars."
"How confident are you for today\'s battle?" the commentator asked Aman.
"At first, we were discouraged because All-STARS is a solid team, but after seeing their team composition, I believe we have a chance. All-STARS is severely underestimating us if they believe they can defeat us with extras," Aman responded. The commentator asked Aman a few more questions before approaching Dilip.
"How confident are you for today\'s battle?" asked the commentator.
"I am certain we will win; to be fair, it will be a win for them if they survive even three minutes," Dilip replied arrogantly. Many people were enraged by his arrogance. It even caught the commentator off guard, but because he was professional, he reacted normally and inquired.
"It appears that you are well prepared and have devised a good strategy."
"Why would I prepare for them? and why would I need a strategy to defeat them? I would have fought them alone if it hadn\'t been for the rules. Seriously, why do I have to fight these weaklings? It would have been better if I had used this time to complete season 1 of \'Indra, the God of Lightning.\' "Dilip exclaimed irritably. This statement infuriated all of the members of Faded; they despised Dilip and All-STARS.
Rishi and Dev touched their foreheads with helpless expressions, but they quickly calmed down by convincing themselves that it was to be expected from Dilip.
The referee summoned both captains for the coin toss, which Dilip let Aman decide. Aman chose tails when the coin was tossed, but when the coin stopped, the referee announced, "All-Stars have won the toss."
Dilip took advantage of the situation, looking down on Aman and saying, "You can\'t even win the toss, and you think you\'re worthy enough to fight us?"
Aman was enraged by Dilip\'s constant taunts; he was about to respond when his teammate stopped him and said, "Don\'t fall for it; he\'s playing mind games; we\'ll answer him in battle."
The picker wheel hologram appeared in front of Dilip. "I\'ll give you one more chance by letting you start the wheel," Dilip said to Aman.
\'Can\'t this jerk just say he\'s going to stop the wheel, and I have to start it?\' thought Aman in his mind.
Aman approached the wheel and pressed the spin button. The picker wheel began to spin, and it was spinning at full speed after a while. Everyone expected Dilip to stop it, but he remained standing there, staring at the picker wheel and thinking about something.
Dilip did not stop after one minute. As everyone was growing impatient, the commentator decided to step in and ask Dilip, "Dilip, could you please put a stop to it? Everyone is patiently waiting."
Dilip asked the commentator, "Do you believe in astrology?"
"I don\'t think anyone believes in that anymore, and how is it related?" the commentator responded.
"It is related because I believe in it, as it was a very important day; I asked an astrologer the best time to start the match." Dilip paused before turning to face Aman. "What are you looking at? Today is important for me because the world will witness my greatness for the first time, not because I am fighting you."
This enraged Aman even more; there was a limit to insulting your opponent, but Dilip appeared to have no limit, and he would not stop until he had mentally exhausted his opponent.
"Oh, I forgot where I was. So, according to the astrologer, 6:15 PM is the best time for me to start something Great, "Dilip continued before checking the time on his smartphone. "You just have to wait for a little more." This enraged everyone, but they decided to wait because no rule stated that the captain had limited time to stop the wheel.
"What is he doing? Dev, did you request it? Is he telling the truth or playing mind games to annoy the opposing guild?" Rishi inquired.
"It\'s difficult to figure out his intention, but if I were in Aman\'s shoes, I would have surrendered. Dilip appears to have mastered the art of annoying your opponent. If you don\'t like a guild, we can send him for the toss to annoy them when we\'re up against them, "Dev responded with laughter.
"I knew Dilip was annoying, but after the bullying and emotional damage he inflicted on the opposing captain, I believe he is mentally defeated. When we fight Exodia, we\'ll send him for the toss; the look on Aditya\'s face will be very satisfying to watch," said Rishi.
