Fallen Chronicles

Chapter 282 Chapter 282: New star

“This can’t be real, I thought ‘Snake’ level were already quite something, but it’s actually ‘Elephant’ level?”

“How much did you guys bet on the monster, huh?”

“Hahaha, this is going to be good to watch. An ‘Elephant’ level monster, this hot widow is done for!”

“Stop it, I wanted to watch her fight more, you guys are too cruel!”

“Damn it! It’s over, I bet that this Dragonkin widow would win, now all is lost, damn!”

When gladiators and monsters fight, the audience can choose to place bets on the monsters.

The higher the amount bet on the monster, the stronger the monster the organizers will send out, indirectly giving the audience the “choice” of the match.

Like before, Renji’s “debut battle” clearly wasn’t very popular, the audience didn’t expect much from Renji’s fight, so the monster was quite ordinary, only two or three ‘Dog’ level Miasma monsters.

But now, with the Dragonkin, a widow milf, a beautiful female gladiator, and possibly behind-the-scenes promotion by the organizers, various factors mixed together have created the current situation.

Renji frowned, and the little Nova he was holding seemed to finally realize that the enthusiastic atmosphere around was different from what she imagined. Always confident in her mother, she couldn’t help but feel a bit nervous, her eyes tightly fixed on the figure of her mother below.

Next to Renji, Suthia couldn’t help it anymore, but Renji held her back, feeling that things might not be so simple.

As the atmosphere was hyped to its peak, the host decided to interview the person involved.

However, when he handed the microphone to Noya, asking her how she felt upon learning that her next opponent would be an ‘Elephant’ level Miasma monster, Nova’s mother just shrugged her shoulders, showing no excessive emotion. If anything, she seemed a bit anxious.

She simply answered the host, “Can we start now? I promised my daughter I’d be back soon.”

“Ohhhh!!!”

When Nova’s mother’s answer, amplified by the microphone, echoed through the ears of the entire audience in the arena, it instantly elevated the mood to a new height.

Such words from Nova’s mother, in the ears of the audience, were undoubtedly overwhelmingly domineering, as if the upcoming fight with an ‘Elephant’ level monster was as trivial as eating and drinking.

A small portion of the audience was attracted by the domineering and calm demeanor of Nova’s mother, but the majority of the audience, with eyes reddened, roared various insults, beginning to cheer for the monster, wanting this arrogant Dragonkin widow to suffer a setback and show her some color, questioning why she could be so arrogant.

Finally, as the host exits the arena, the arena begins to close. Across from Nova’s mother, a huge iron gate slowly opens, revealing a terrifying monster’s shadow to all the breath-held spectators.

Elephant-level Tainted Miasma monsters, almost seven to eight meters tall and weighing dozens of tons, are like enlarged tanks. They don’t have to do anything; their sheer size alone is enough to bring intense fear and deterrence.

With a pair of fierce tusks protruding high from the corners of its mouth, just the tusks alone are as thick as water buckets. It’s easy to imagine that a poke from them could easily penetrate even a demihuman’s body.

This Elephant-level monster, with its red eyes quickly locking onto the only living being in the arena, then charges at her with the force of a running elephant, roaring and shaking the ground as it sprints toward her. .

Although Noya is tall compared to humans, she looks like a toy in front of this Elephant-level monster. Facing the charging beast, she stands still, appearing to outsiders as if she’s frozen in fear, drawing boos and excitement from the audience.

Excited to see this female gladiator crushed into mush or impaled and tossed into the air by the Tainted Miasma monster’s tusks.

However, only a few people like Renji and Suthia could see clearly until the last moment.

Nova’s mother placed her hand in front of her chest, and as the monstrous figure came within just five meters, a blade made of blazing flames quickly formed at her chest and was grasped firmly in her hand.

In the next blink of an eye, she drew the blade, struck, and sheathed it.

Just one strike.

This slash was unbelievably fast, the audience couldn’t see anything clearly, not even when Nova’s mother drew the blade.

All they could see was a residual image of the flame blade in the air in front of the Dragonkin widow, like the lingering trace of a crescent moon’s dance.

As the flaming blade was retracted back in front of her, Noya didn’t even glance at the giant Elephant monster that had abruptly stopped in front of her and turned to leave.

It was only when Noya turned around that the massive body of the Elephant Tainted Miasma monster, seemingly unable to support itself any longer, fell to the ground with a dull thud, to the disbelief of all spectators.

Then, following the monster’s fall, the audience could see a deep cut at the heart of the giant elephant, where the Tainted Miasma core was located. Now, it was burned out, a deep slash at an incredibly precise angle right through it, delivering a fatal blow to the monster, killing it instantly.

“Impossible! This can’t be happening!”

“This is an Elephant-level monster! The base would have to send out at least three elite squads to subdue it, and she, she just did it alone…”

“There’s something fishy! Definitely something fishy!”

“The officials are letting it slide! They’re just out to scam our money! Damn it! I bet a week’s resources on the monster, no, I can’t accept this!”

“Bullshit! It’s clear that this hot mommy is just that good! Hahaha, I made a fortune this time!”

The spectator stands were in chaos. Little Nova, held in Renji’s arms, quietly breathed a sigh of relief and then, with a smug look on her face towards Renji, boasted:

“How about that, big brother? I didn’t lie, did I? Mama is super

——amazing! She said she’d be back soon, and she meant it!”

The little girl suddenly frowned mid-sentence, realizing something troubling as she looked at the candy still in her hand.

She hadn’t wanted to eat Renji’s candy right away, so she kept it in her mouth the whole time. But now that her mom’s fight was over, and she hadn’t even dissolved the last piece of candy, she worried about getting scolded when her mom returned!

Because her mom had told her not to eat things from strangers.

So, Nova hurriedly gobbled down the remaining candy, reluctantly swallowing it, then anxiously tugged on Renji’s clothes, urging him to hurry back before her mom found out.

However, Renji gave Nova a reassuring look because the organizers, seemingly stunned by Nova’s mother’s strength, were now regaining their composure and immediately sent the host to intercept Nova’s mother, starting to heap praise on her.

After all, following this battle, it was clear to everyone that the Arena was about to see the rise of a dazzling new star. Each gladiator star was an absolute money-maker for the officials, and from the host’s behavior, it was evident they were already starting to promote her.

‘So, Is this Nova’s past?’

Renji watched from below the arena as countless eyes focused on her, winning a substantial prize, many becoming fans conquered by her strength, and shouting “Noya”and “Mommy”- but Noya seemed a bit distracted during the interview, seemingly eager to finish and return to her daughter.

Nova chewed on her sweet candy, seeing her mom become a popular contestant, liked by so many, her dimples showing a sweet smile.

‘Until now, her past seems not too bad…’

But precisely because of this, Renji felt a sigh in his heart because all that they were seeing was the past, and judging from what he knew of Nova’s situation as a result, in reality.

He hoped it wasn’t as bad as he imagined.

As Renji pondered in silence, the scene in front of him changed, moving on to the next part of the story.
