Chapter 6

"What happened?" i asked "I… don't, know?" she responded "Oh, you guys' part of the tournament?" a guard asked the both of us "Nah, me only" i answered "Then you should rush off, it's about to start soon"

The guard informed me while smirking "I don't think that guy has good intentions" Trish said while looking at the laughing guard "Heh, don't worry too much" i said while looking at the items in some shops, i found some interesting items

"We gotta rush! So stop looking at these things" trish tugging me "Good sir, i see that you are looking at these goggles" "Ser i see that you want my slingshot?" "Ser, do you wanna buy…" getting dragged by Trish and dodging all those guys selling stuff was harder than settling my inner turmoil

"So here is another challenger fooor Druuuuddddgeee" the speaker trying to make the crowd wild… 'Yey what a lackluster response' i made my way to the challenging side "Kid, go faster i have things to do" the old man with a cowboy hat said to me "Don't worry old man, this will end preeetty quick" I said to him

While grinning "Hoh… Ur dat confident R yah" "Yes, yes i am" "Start it already!" the old man screamed "…Yes, right away ser" The old man fired a tazerling at me which i defended firing Freeze the frostcrawler at my front

Successfully defending i instantly managed to see that he was close to an edge so i fired Leaf the vinedrill to that edge and managed to faze the old man and was able to stop him from firing a slug at me

"Hey, the old man looks like you're losing your touch" and without a second i fired both River the aquabeek and Nuke the Grenuke, "…UGHH!!! Agh! Kid, you're good but! Let's see if you can defend from this!!" he fired at the ice wall and what came out was unbelieving black shadow

That started to rush at me "HAHAHA, you're done for now kid" Then he started firing more slugs at me "Can't believe that I'm going to say this but you have some annoying skills old man" Without a second thought i located him and fired magneto at him

Then fired tomato to boost Magneto to which Magneto managed to magnetize his gun while i completely stopped the shadow from rushing into me, before he could touch his gun "Ah ah old man, i don't think that's a good idea"

Aiming my gun at him he looked at me before smirking "You've got skills sonny" Getting his hands i responded "I sure do" Pulling him i managed to look what slug that caused me a headache "NEGASHADE!!" I screamed, "Woah there Sonny, calm down it's just an uncommon slug" …i don't know anything about uncommon

But bruh, you won't see a boon doc or Negashade that easily in these caverns! "Old man…" he looked at me and clicked his mouth "Kid if you want to take the damn slug just take it" "Buhh… this slug is so rarer than some rare slugs that i've seen" those words made the old man laugh so hard that he had to pat his stomach

"HAHAHA, fine kid since you don't want to take the damn slug how about i give you a treasure map that might lead you to a nightshade slug natural nest" With those words spoken to my ears, my mouth might've reached my ears "Old man, ill take the treasure map" "But, since you did defeat me in a duel i have to give you a slug"

The old man looked at his watch and then typed at something after a few seconds a woman came and i saw something that would make anyone envy right now

"This Hoverbug although quite low leveled is still a rare one and hard to catch, and can be useful as well" i know for myself that getting a Hoverbug is good transportation in itself "Thanks, old man" After a few pleasantries and an invitation the old man

And the woman made their way out of the stadium

I battled for another 2 times and got some cool additional slugs but sadly they were backups at best… they were too unmotivated to fight, and that shows that they didn't have enough training or healthy enough to be blasted 

Anyway, the last one was against a person that you guys might know

"Here comes two newbies who were black horses, and one of them is DESDEMONA!!!"

"You won't take away my spotlight!!" the girl screamed at me "Don't need to" as the sound of horn entered my ears i fired my two blasters which Desdemona dodged while blasting a slug at me

We fired a lot of times that it became a stand-off "You can see the pressure coming from these two that we can see that some of their slugs were too tired to transform, oooh it seems like the arachnet is out!"

"Oh, the Reven's vine drill is out" "Oh no! Desdemona's ace slug is almost out of juice!!" "Seeing how both of the slingers kept on slinging i can say that they have stamina!!" "Haha, i know! Ah the speedstinger of Desdemona is out" "As well as the DirtUrchin of Reven" "Oh, Desdemona dodging that Diggtrix!!" "Reven jumps at the ravine!!" "Desdemona tried to fire a slug and Oooohh" "Reven got close to Desdemona and fired one of his Hop Rock" "Desdemona jumps and… a bubbaleone??" "Seems like

They don't have enough slugs" "Oh no! Desdemona doesn't have any slugs anymore and Reven has a Grenuke who still has juice!"

"Surrender," I calmly said to her "Grrrr!! This…" she slumped down and accepted her defeat, i didn't want to disrespect her so i chose a slug that i failed to get

"Welcome to the team little guy" the small darkish brown weakly waved at me "A lavalynx ehh," Trish said while grinning
