Chapter 337: A Strange Feeling

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

‘What a strange feeling! And what a strange person!’

It was the first time they formally met, but Silver Wolf discovered to his disbelief that the young boy who was at least eight years younger than him gave him a strange feeling that made him want to get close to him.

Over the past few months since he entered the game, even though there had been people who had tried to befriend him because of his incomplete silver mask, and some had even declared themselves his brothers right when they met, he never regarded any of them fondly. As time passed, he remained alone, wandering across the land like a wolf.

He did not communicate with anyone, and neither did he try to acquaint himself with anyone.

Happy was truly a strange person. His gaze was serious, and he appeared to pay attention to a person fully when he listened. He also seemed to understand him very well, which touched Silver Wolf for a moment.

That was right, he felt touched.

After all, Silver Wolf had done some calculations in regards to Happy, who was a boy who had managed to reach the top of the game at such a young age. With Happy’s abilities, there were fewer than ten people on the Dragon and Phoenix Ranks who could fight against him. Of course, that was only if they considered the people on the Dragon and Phoenix Ranks.

Happy had also relied on the first-person-view pay-to-view battle replay system that was currently trending in the market to garner even more fame for himself. His battle at Common Reed Bank was still the hottest video, and the sales for it were still climbing up. With tens of millions of people who paid for the video, it remained indisputably at the top. Even if Silver Wolf calculated the lowest possible profit Happy might have earned, the youth was still a newly forged millionaire.

He was a man who was in possession of everything and enjoyed riches that countless youngsters would never possess in their life, and he had it all at such a young age. It could be said that Happy had the capital and strength to be proud!

But despite such great achievements, Happy remained humble. It something incredibly unbelievable, but on top of that, when Happy looked at him, he looked at him in the eye, and there was no hint of folly in his gaze. The amiable tone he adopted which made it clear that he did not look down on anyone and was just talking to a friend made Silver Wolf feel a faint hint of regret.

He suddenly regretted his decision and did not quite want to use Happy to satisfy his own desires!

As they spoke, Happy naturally learned that Silver Wolf had run into some trouble and needed quite a large sum of money to handle it.

He needed five million!

It was the reason behind why he went to fight against Lu Mingyue and why he had rushed to Baokang afterwards.

‘I see. So Silver Wolf had suddenly vanished from the game in my previous life because he wanted to gather those five million?’ Happy thought

While charging forward, they soon reached the depths of Shennongjia.

“It’s about time.”

Happy turned his head around and looked before he finally tugged at the reins and stopped. After going around in circles, the fierce beasts they met on their way were enough to hold back the Embroidered Uniform Guards for a while. It was impossible for them come into the depths of the forest within a short period of time.

Silver Wolf put away his steed and looked at Happy walking into the depths of the forest. A complicated look flashed pat his eyes.

“I have to say, this fight won’t be fair to you.”

That sentence suddenly reached Happy’s ears from behind him, leaving him stunned. He turned around and looked curiously at Silver Wolf’s face, at the part which was not covered by the silver mask and was expressionless at that moment.

“What’s unfair about it?” Happy asked.

“You don’t know me at all, but I’ve experienced your fight in first person view, and I know your strength well.” When Silver Wolf said that, he paused for a moment before he sucked in a deep breath, and resolve shone in his eyes. “Besides, Lu Mingyue also told me a lot about you.”

“Then, he should have mentioned that he cannot defeat me.” Happy’s expression did not change, and his smile did not fade away.

Silver Wolf felt troubled. “Aren’t you worried that you’ll lose?”

Silver Wolf’s confusion and puzzlement echoed in the quiet forest.

“Why should I?” Happy looked calm and relaxed. “This is how the world of martial artists is. There will always be someone better! I might be enjoying endless glory right now, but I do expect that one day, I might lose to someone. But that’s not important. I still love challenging and being challenged by others.”

His tone was earnest, just like his smile. It made Silver Wolf try to search for any sign that Happy was looking down on him, but he found none.

He gritted his teeth and said, “If I defeat you, you will definitely fall from the Famous People Rank, and I will go up.”

“Isn’t that even better? If you defeat Happy, the top ranked player on the Famous People Rank, your battle replay will definitely sell. Getting five million will not be a problem for you.” Happy drew his weapon and made a gesture at Silver Wolf to invite him to start the battle. “But as your sparring partner this time, may I also raise a request?”

Silver Wolf had stayed in the army for far too long, and when he saw someone being kind to him, he preferred to return twice the amount of kindness. Even though Happy was still young, he had to admit that Happy gave him a very good impression. If he defeated Happy, he would feel as if he had used Happy, and that he had done him a disservice. He would also feel regretful and uneasy because of it. Hence, when he heard Happy raise a request, he answered without hesitation, “Go on.”

“If you can fight on equal grounds with Lu Mingyue, it means that you have outstanding strength. Mu Clan is the clan that my friend, Thunderous Battle, built. We just so happen to need people like you to guard it. Stay in Mu Clan for five years, and I will pay you five million as a fee. Of course, if I lose, you can treat it as I’ve never said anything.”

Silver Wolf’s gaze stayed on Happy’s face for a long time, and his voice changed a little. “Aren’t you worried that I’m lying to you? I might be saying that I need five million as an excuse, and there’s a possibility that I’ve never fought against Lu Mingyue before.”

There were always people in the army who did not like beating around the bush.

Silver Wolf quickly understood that Happy intended to help him based on the request Happy made. His chest heaved, and he stared into Happy’s eyes. He did not want to miss out on any slight changes on Happy’s face.

‘Your strength and achievements in my previous life tell me that what you said is true!’

Naturally, Happy would not answer that way. He pondered it for a while before he said, “My instincts tell me that what you said is true, and I’m willing to trust you. It’s that simple.”

“Alright, I’ll agree to it!” Silver Wolf made up his mind. His expression instantly turned very cold, and his tone changed. “Happy, to prove that your judgment is correct, I will fight with my full strength, and I won’t hold back at all. As long as you can win against me, I will work for you for five years!”

“Please, go on!”

Happy cast a glance at the parting hooks in Silver Wolf’s hands along with the boomerangs that Silver Wolf stabbed into the ground one after another. After seeing them, a somewhat grave expression appeared on Happy’s face.

Neither of them wore any equipment. They were just dressed in normal clothes made of normal cloth, and they stared at each other from a distance.

Twelve boomerangs were placed in front of Silver Wolf in a row.

“As long as you can block three waves of boomerangs from my side, I will immediately admit defeat!”

Once Silver Wolf finished speaking resolutely and firmly, he decisively chose two boomerangs with his parting hooks. Two black shadows charged toward Happy like lightning, one right after the other.

When he noticed the trajectory of the boomerangs, Happy felt his heart tremble!

The boomerangs would not threaten him at all, but…

Whoosh! Whoosh!

The two boomerangs flew past Happy’s sides one after another before they advanced courageously into the depths of the forest. At the same time, Silver Wolf picked up the third and fourth boomerangs from the ground, placed them on the parting hooks, and threw them out at lightning speed!

The first two boomerangs returned swiftly, and they locked Happy down from four cardinal directions. Silver Wolf’s face was cold and callous. He then threw the fifth and sixth boomerangs at an even faster speed!

He had decided to strike first to gain the advantage!

Six fierce Hill Breaker Boomerangs instantly formed a net that constricted to create a situation where the boomerangs could absolutely kill his target…
