3Ry Cross Time (S1-S2)
DUEL COMPANIONS

A black shadow wrapped in a large dark cloak covering his entire head was seen running on the roof of the building in the capital Lan-gang. The shadow looked like it was chasing something with a hurried pace.

He fused with the night, until it was unrecognizable.

But, honey...

He had to stop in the middle of his pursuit as his eyes began to daze looking around, yet what was sought was nowhere to be seen anymore. He could not help but snort at himself who failed to pursue the figure.

"Finding it is much harder than finding a needle in a haystack!" he said in a low voice while shaking his waist.

Without him knowing, the one in his car was now standing quietly 10 meters away from him right behind. The figure is not only calm, but its existence can not be felt. He is like a shadow that exists, but never a problem for anyone.

After feeling that he did not get any results, the man said to himself again. "Enough for tonight. After all, he was unable to escape any further than me! Since we are destined, where else can he go?!" at the end of his sentence, he gave a smile that he had never shown to anyone.

That smile is too sweet and full will be longing. Overall, it's like a claim of ownership.

Then, he jumped over the roof of the building and ran again and returned home still without realizing that the person being talked about was behind him from the beginning.

That person was none other than Ryura.

He only looked at the unknown person who had started to move away still with an expressionless face. No one knows if he is happy or not knowing about being followed, which he clearly knows is being sought.

However, he did not feel any negativity from this quest. Therefore, he dared to observe the person from a close distance.

A moment glimpsed the sword wrapped neatly on his right side.

It seemed, just now he felt the sword tremble. But, don't know why.

Shortly after, Ryura's turn to go from there along with the stranger stopped his steps to take a moment to look back where he was standing before.

But, he found nothing.

Don't know why. He was told there was something there, but he didn't know it.

Only then did he resume his steps and the two returned through opposite paths, letting the starry sky tonight bear witness to the two fighting each other.

Morning arrived the next day.

Starting from the sun peeking in the eastern horizon, the atmosphere of the capital Lan-gang was already seen crowded. Even the Shaozu Area began to be visited by enthusiastic spectators at the competition today.

However, Ryura disappears from the room. It was a success to panic Duan Xi at first. But, before long she regained her composure as soon as she remembered that Ryura was the girl in charge.

He said as he waved his hand against the air right before his face. "Easy! I'll be back too!"

Rayan and Reychu just giggled at it. They remember when the old man was so chatty that he knew Ryura was missing. But, now it's real.

"The old man is already a big man apparently... Kikiki.." he said with a chuckle, there was nothing to mark whether it was mocking or not.

Duan Xi only snorted in response. Already getting used to Reychu's mouth that doesn't have a filter.

Reychu's mouth was too limp from the start, so it was difficult to recognize whether he was talking good or bad.

Finally, the 3Ry group began to move to the Shaozu Area.

In a few cases, there were people who gave Reychu greetings and occasionally asked about the competition this time. However, Reychu's reply instead made the person who heard him awkward and clumsy.

One example...

"Well.this is Miss Ahn Reychu, right? You were great yesterday! Will there be any surprises this time when you play?" ask one of the residents who recognized him as a participant at the life and death competition in the Shaozu Area yesterday.

"Really! Haha... You just praised me?! I know, I'm great! It's second to none! Talk about a surprise in the competition... Jelass... That's a secret. You'll know later. Where might I tell you my trade secrets. It will no longer be exciting! Time I have to say that I will cut off the challengers later. That's not funny... Hehehe." he said in his signature style.

He was even between conscious and not, when saying something that could be his 'trade secret' in question.

The stranger who asked just now, did not know how to respond. He did not think that this was the figure of Reychu who was known to be crazy on the arena stage while fighting. Who would have thought that in everyday life it would be this ridiculous.

The stranger could only chuckle awkwardly, not knowing how to.

The others from 3Ry's entourage, just ignore Reychu's behavior. They're used to it.

Finally, the Shaozu Area stands were full of spectators as the sun rose slightly at 6:30 a.m.

Their impatience is obvious. How eager they are to watch the excitement of this year's life and death competition.

In the lower stands as before, 3Ry and the others - except for Ryura - were already sitting sweetly, though not in the same place as yesterday. But, it was definitely as strategic and close to the arena stage.

As he was calmly sitting down, a bunch of annoying people came with their haughty faces.

Who else if not the man who got the nickname 'Wood Cross' from Duan Xi.

His name is Fu Xie. His person was tall and thin, as old as Duan Xi. But, at least both of them look fresh fit at an age that is no longer young.

The face was arrogant and arrogant. Too looked down on his enemy, Duan Xi.

"You're ready to lose today, my old friend?!" his snide and his students chuckled at the short old man sitting in the stands.

They could even see that his feet were not even touching the ground, it signified how short a man of his teacher's age was.

"Oh, really?! I doubt even that! What if you were the only one preparing to lose?! Hm.." Duan Xi replied no less cynical and mocking.

Even the teachers to declare that they are champions in their year.

Who would accept that when the two were even hostile?!

That's so...

"Yoyoyoy... What's the matter? If you want to fight, find somewhere else. You're blocking my view to watch." Reychu said as he flicked his hand as a gesture of expulsion, only then looked at Fu Xie's group with a contrived expression.

"Oohs. Who's this... Let me remember... Ahah! I remember now, he was skinny Old Man yesterday right! I thought he was carried away by the wind, it was still here." ledek Reychu indiscriminately.

Fu Xie's body shook with anger. But, it could not be rash considering he had seen Reychu's fighting method. It can be concluded that Reychu is not a typical opponent who has compassion when faced with a real opponent.

And that one yesterday, must have been only a small part of his ability. He wondered where his enemies found them.

Including the girl named Ryura.

He saw clearly how the girl he could not sense had her existence disable the opponent in a short period of time without using spiritual energy.

It's worrying, he thinks.

Therefore, he will not be careless by serving an unimportant debate at this time. He must strategize with his chosen disciple who will fight with Ryura later.

"That's it. There's no point in arguing with a bunch of lowly people" he said. "Come, kids. We have more important business than serving people like them." He can still be arrogant after anxiety creeps in his heart.

"Husha.. Hush..! Ruin the scenery." Reychu bursts lazily. His words made one of the girls in Fu Xie's group glare ferociously at him who was reciprocated by Reychu's tongue.

Then, they went to sit in the stands before.

Shortly after, the show began...

One by one the participants began to go up and compete on the arena stage.

A few moments later...

Boredom hit Reychu to make the girl lean her body on Rayan while complaining.

"What the fuck? Why so boring! When is my turn? Look.." point it at the player on the arena stage. "What are they doing?! Is that all they can?! Hmh! Nothing great at all!" his grunts due to unstoppable boredom.

Glancing at Reychu was lazy, but Rayan still spoke up. "You can be quiet, can't you?! It hasn't been going on too long. Of the 13 participants in the vote today, only 6 names came out, that means it only lasted for 3 hours. Which part do you take for long?!" Rayan shook her head not to bother serving Reychu who was not clear according to him.

Putting his chin on Rayan's shoulder, Reychu again grumbled. "What's 3 hours?! I already feel like more than that. You don't fool me!" his keuke.

"Haish, it's up to you! Why not just hope, hopefully you are directly paired with Ryura as your opponent later. So, you don't have to act like this. You know, it sucks!" rayan's annoyance in the end. But, not getting rid of Reychu who was struggling on his shoulder.

"Huh! You're right!" Rayan nodded. "Speaking about Ryura... Where's dia? He really is like a ghost. But what a pity, I'm not afraid. As a ghost he is much more pleasing to the eye than a real ghost. But, could he not be overwhelmed at times like these. From last night he disappeared. She's like a woman of the night." Cerocos Reychu who made Rayan roll her eyes off guard.

His sharp mouth had already become a habit.

Fortunately he was his friend.

As soon as the sentence that Reychu spoke finished, the voice of the host immediately followed echoed.

"ALRIGHT... WE'LL GO STRAIGHT TO THE NEXT PARTICIPANT... THE LADIES AND GENTLEMEN WOULD HAVE BEEN IMPATIENT TO WATCH AGAIN AND LOOK FORWARD TO WHO THE NEXT PARTICIPANT IS. IT'S OKAY... DON'T WORRY... NOW LET THE VOTERS START VOTING ON THE NAMES OF THE PARTICIPANTS WHO WILL BE FIGHTING NOW. COME ON, THE REFEREE SHOW ME HIS NAME!"

The so-called referee directly took out two small bamboo blades from his place at random. Then, show it to the host.

"THIS IS... WE ALREADY HOLD THE NAMES OF THE TWO PARTICIPANTS WHO WILL BE COMPETING AT THIS TIME... WANT TO KNOWUU.." sahutan directly sounded as soon as the host asked that. The zeal and enthusiasm of the people of the Southeastern Empire was absolutely indisputable.

"ALRIGHT, JUST GO STRAIGHT. WE DON'T HAVE TO LINGER. BECAUSE TODAY, WE WILL INSTANTLY PLAY 3 ROUNDS OF FIGHTS ALL THE WAY TO THE FINALS! PLEASE PREPARE YOURSELF NOT TO MISS THE OPPORTUNITY TO WATCH THIS YEAR'S LIFE AND DEATH COMPETITION.." THE host announced SOMETHING.

"THEREFORE, THESE ARE THE TWO PARTICIPANTS THAT WE WILL WITNESS THE DUEL. COME, GREET OUR PARTICIPANTS... MISS REYCHU AND MISS RYURA...!!!" continued.

Reychu who heard it from the lower stands immediately stood up from his seat.

Looking towards Rayan. "Darling, your words are answered!" glad Reychu is immeasurable. Without waiting for a reply from his best friend he immediately jumped flying towards the arena stage confidently using his body-lightening ability.

"Basic crazy!" rayan Rada is upset.

The perfect landing in Reychu as a form of seriousness against his own best friend.

But...

Reychu was already ruffled by the waist when the situation in the Shaozu Area became silent. Everyone began to circulate their views to find the other participant who had lasted a minute, but had not appeared yet.

Impatiently, Reychu shouted.

"CATYRINAAAAAAAAAAA...!!!"
