Chapter 462 - Ways of Attacking
“So, do I just fight people in the garden and see who comes out in the end?” Angor put down his fork and looked at Sunders.
“Lawson didn’t say anything about the rules yet but should be close to what you said,” Sunders held his chin while speaking. “Are you afraid? You can always quit if you wish to.”
Angor shook his head firmly. “No. I’ll join them and win.”
He didn’t really care whether he was afraid or not. Since he learned that the garden could provide him a great chance of becoming a wizard, he had to accept the challenge.
He had to grow stronger, both for himself and for those he loved.
“Good. I’ll give you some lessons these days so that you don’t die too fast in the garden,” Sunders announced the end of their meal.
Next, Sunders took Angor back to the wilderness in the Garden of Gravity again.
“Oh, forgive me. I really didn’t want to show off my teacher’s name to people.”
“I feel ya. But I’m afraid you’ll be really disappointed to know that your name is widely known by everyone today. The entire city has heard of how Mister Phantom kicked my teacher’s a*s just for you.”
Somehow, Shadow didn’t seem concerned about Bogula’s safety at all.
“People are talking about you, you know? And there are people from all over the world who came for the purification garden. Soon, they’ll bring the news to their homes. Feeling great now?”
Angor had been staying indoors since nobody ever paid Sunders’ mansion any unnecessary visits. He wasn’t surprised to hear his story traveling around so fast, considering how Floating Mech City had gossip magazines like Precision Sky.
“Not really. Are you here just to tell me this?” Angor raised an eyebrow. “And did Mister Bogula actually allow you to come?”
Shadow crossed his legs in a lazy manner. “My teacher’s away again. He can’t tell me what to do now.”
“Away? Can it be—”
“No, it has nothing to do with Mister Phantom. I tell ya, he’s shameless and doesn’t care what people say about him. Kinda like me.” Shadow stretched his arms and yawned. “And it’s not like he’d tell me where he went. So you see, I’m totally free.”
“By the way, I came because of the garden again,” Shadow said. He looked at Angor and noticed that Angor didn’t seem interested at all. “Okay. You already know, right?”
Angor nodded.
“Ah, who am I kidding… Mister Phantom will certainly tell you. Let me guess, you will enter the garden anyway, right?” Shadow put a hand on Angor’s shoulder. “Be safe. I trust you, buddy. I know it’s a waste of breath but I still need to warn you. Be very careful. There are many geniuses and whatnot you won’t usually find who just came for the same purpose.
“When I was walking in the main district with Toya, we saw more than one fights broke out between these people. Most of them are half-step to the wizard level, according to Mister Sabot. Some of them even have wizard-level items to help.”
Shadow looked worried. “This time, they don’t have a limit for how many winners are admitted, so you should run away from any threat you see. As long as you’re still breathing in the end, you will win this thing.”
