Chapter 259 Night City: I’m really not the protagonist!
“No, the one just now doesn’t count, let’s compete again!”
Even though it ended in a draw, this result was obviously unacceptable to the competitive Claire.
From Claire's point of view, she is two years older than Ye Cheng, so she has a certain age advantage. The result was said to be a draw, but in fact she lost.
“Kleia, stop fooling around! Today is your birthday, don’t you want the guests here to laugh at it?”
Faced with Cleia's unreasonable troubles, while Night City was still having a headache, Baron Cagenor in the audience finally scolded her in a stern tone this time.
Just kidding, Baron Cagenor would naturally not agree to let Claire fight with Night City again.
Although the initial goal was not achieved, the Cagenor family's face was saved, and Claire's reputation as a genius was confirmed.
Although there is one more son of Omega who has become famous this time, which makes Baron Cagenor quite unwilling, it has to be said that this is the best result at the moment.
If you continue to challenge Night City persistently, the first time was a misunderstanding, and the second time will be targeted. Although Baron Omega has a good temper, he is not manipulated by a clay figure.
Besides, Claire's magic power is now exhausted. If she fights again, will she be able to defeat Night City without the magic power to strengthen her body?
I'm afraid that the loss will be even worse, so in the eyes of Baron Cagenor, this result is the best. He can no longer let Claire continue to be willful.
“You are hiding your clumsiness, that guy..., could it be said that he is also a person with shadow power like me?”
Seeing that the duel between Night City and Cleia ended in a draw, the authorities, including Cleia and Baron Cagenor, did not notice anything strange.
However, Sid, who was watching the battle on the sidelines, could see that something was wrong at this moment, and he could tell at a glance that Ye Cheng was hiding something.
At the beginning, Ye Cheng, who had an ordinary aura, was able to show such fighting power, which really surprised Sid.
But in the end, Night City was able to control the result to a "tie" and not let the people around him discover the abnormal method, which surprised Sid even more.
Having strength is not surprising. After all, the world is so big, and it is also a magical world. The vastness is far greater than the world in his previous life, so having strong people is completely within the scope of Sid's initial acceptance. Inside.
However, the opponent's strength and talent are strong, and he also hides his clumsiness. This is worthy of Sid's attention.
You are strong but you still know how to hide your clumsiness. Isn’t this just showing off like you are... Oh no, is it because you are a "strong person of shadow" like yourself?
At that moment, Sid even thought that Night City was the so-called "protagonist" of this world.
Isn’t it common in all kinds of story novels and stories? The protagonist is similar to a "brave". He is both good-looking and extremely powerful.
Judging from the current situation, the Night City in front of him has all these factors.
But in Sid's view, if Ye Cheng is a "brave", there will be no problem, but if he wants to become a "shadow power user", his quality is basically unqualified.
Leaving aside other aspects, if you want to be a powerful person hidden in the darkness, you must first have an ordinary face and a temperament that is salty enough. But as for Ye Cheng... the other person's face obviously doesn't meet the standard of "ordinary" anymore, and if he competes with his "genius" sister in such a public place, it's not considered salty at all.
As for why Sid feels that Night City is the protagonist but he is not, the reason is simple.
Because as a powerful person who lives in darkness and hunts darkness, his setting should be biased towards an existence like the villain BOSS.
Yecheng, with its "brave" template, is likely to become its own strong enemy in the future!
Thinking of this, Sid was so excited that he couldn't help himself. He was even in the late stage of the second disease, and now he has put himself into it. Just imagine that he was the one who just competed with Ye City, and what kind of sparks would be created!
However, no matter how lustful Sid is, the protagonist of today's banquet is obviously not him, so he can only do it on the side.
After Claire's birthday party, Gass went back because he was busy with official duties, but Medice and Ye Cheng were left at the Cageno house as guests.
Medith and Baron Cagenor's wife, Sid's mother, are good friends.
So after the banquet, Baroness Cageno invited Medice to stay for two days.
Medith originally wanted to refuse, but when she thought about her child Ye Cheng, who would probably stay at home and read a book if he returned, and why she brought Ye City over to attend the banquet in the first place, Medith nodded and agreed to the Baron. Madam's invitation.
There are two children in Kageno's family, and they are the same age as Night City. Through various previous signs, Medeis also believed that Night City has a strong interest in Claire Kageno.
After all, her husband had just secretly told her that in the duel with Claire, Ye Cheng could win, but he chose to let it go and let the duel end in a draw.
Medice naturally wouldn't think too much about Night City's considerations. In her mother's mind, this was completely a sign of the beginning of love between children.
The Night City is interesting to that young girl named Leia, so as a mother, she naturally can’t hold her back!
And just like that, Medeis and Ye Cheng stayed at the Cageno house as guests.
Ye Cheng was also troubled by the misunderstanding of his mother Medice, but he couldn't say anything, so he could only let it go.
Originally, as long as he stayed at the Kageno house for a few days according to his mother's wishes, the matter would be over. Moreover, he was also quite interested in Sid Kageno, a kid who hid his own strength, and wanted to take advantage of this opportunity. Take this opportunity to observe the other person.
Just as Sid suspected that Night City was the protagonist of this world, Night City also suspected that Sid was the son of this world's plane.
After all, there are not many eight-year-old kid who have that kind of strength and know how to hide it. This at least shows that he has a mind beyond his appearance.
Ye Cheng, who has read many anime novels, also knows that in a world with a fantasy and magic background, it is not uncommon for the protagonist to be a time traveler.
However, just when Ye Cheng planned to observe Sid secretly and confirm some of his conjectures, his actions encountered certain obstacles.
Because he was targeted by another troublesome guy, and the other person’s name was Claire Cageno!
That’s right, it’s this girl from the Cageno family who is known as a genius and is highly regarded.
Since the girl and Ye Cheng tied in that sparring match, she seems to have been quite concerned about this matter and has been pestering Ye Cheng!
