The Novel's Extra (101-200)

Chapter 144 - Chameleon Troupe (1)

In a deteriorated cave, ten members of the Chameleon Troupe, including Boss, were present.

All of them were at least at the high-rank level and were powerful figures who had the ability to interfere in any major incident. As a result, the cave was being filled with their aura and magic power.

Most cadets would faint under this pressure, but I was lucky. Because I didn't have any magic power in my body, I was unaffected by the enormous amount of magic power they had in their bodies.

In other words, I was unaffected by 'magic power resonance', a phenomenon that occurred when there was a huge difference in the level of magic power between two or more people.

"Oi! Now that we have all 11 members, why don't we have a ranking tournament!?"

Cheok Jungyeong shouted as he cracked his neck and knuckles. He might not have meant to shout, but his voice was just naturally loud.

"I'm down."

A gentle-faced man spoke. He was Chameleon Troupe's spear user, the Seat of Green, Jin Yohan. If I remembered correctly, his current weapon should be the Serpent Spear.

As the spear used by Zhang Fei of the Three Kingdoms, it was a historical artifact. Its unique ability should be 'limitless weight adjustment'.

"Then do it outside. Don't destroy this place."

"I'm out."

Setryn and Jain each spoke. Setryn was an Egyptian woman wearing all sorts of jewelry. As one might expect, she was modeled after Cleopatra. Her beauty should easily rank in the top 10 of this world.

"Are you joining in, Newbie?"

Cheok Jungyeong looked at me and grinned.

I immediately felt a chill run down my back, but I managed to ignore him and talk to Boss.

"Can I begin refurbishing this place now?"

Boss didn't order me and only blinked her large eyes.

"Shouldn't we give Newbie more time? He's still too young."

Jain came to my rescue. Just like she said, I still needed time. A lot of time.

...Though, I may still be dead last compared to them even in 10 years.

"It's fine~ I'll go easy. Kids are supposed to grow by getting beat up~"

Jin Yohan took out his Serpent Spear. At the same time, beads of sweat began to form on my forehead.

"What do you think?"

Setryn licked her finger and stared at me seductively.

"Hey—! I told you, he might look like a weakling, but he's actually—!"

"Jungyeong, didn't I tell you not to shout? Want me to stitch your lips shut?"

"...Haha, bitch finally went crazy."

Thankfully, Cheok Jungyeong and Setryn got into a fight.

In any case, there were only four talkative members. The rest only stared at me silently or were yawning out of boredom.

"Come outside, I'll crush your head. I won't go easy just because you're a woman."

"Oh, our Jungyeong's finally going to have his neck slashed~"

"...Haha, why don't we just do that tournament then?"

"Quiet."

A single word from Boss cooled the heated atmosphere.
