Climbing the Tower to Be a God With 10x Gacha System

Chapter 57: High Vampire Slaughtered



Before the tournament started, James was sitting in his room, chatting with Nyx as usual, or rather, Nyx was nagging James as usual.

[Remember what I said. In one day alone, over 10,000 warriors fight inside the arena. Duels normally take so short because of the power distribution that I can't explain it. Since there are different areas of the arena, the screens can show 120 battles at the same time, and the audience can watch what they want].

James had heard these words at least ten times in just one day and was getting sick of it, he spoke after scratching his head in annoyance:

"Yes, my lady, I understand, I must put up a good fight for the audience so that attention is drawn to me so that I can exert my authority."

[Good for you. I hope you haven't forgotten the rest of what I said, do I need to go over it again?]

"No m'lady, I remember exactly what you said, please calm down," James replied, feeling as if he was talking to his mother.

[Then tell me, tell me what I told you.]

When he saw this window in front of him, he took a deep breath and began to speak again with a pout:

"With every match I win, the prize from the arena will increase. Not only the first prize but also the duels I win will benefit me. With every match I win, I will have a chance to skip rounds, or rather, I will be faced with stronger people who have participated in the tournament before, or rather their shadows. Kind of like an artificial intelligence."

[Well done you, I mean you know everything you need to do, I'm proud of you.]

James scratched his head again when he saw another window protruding in front of him, but this time it was out of embarrassment, not annoyance, then he took a breath and said one last thing:

"I just have to run them over."

"Umbra of Chaos and Laura of Uprace to the arena!"

When James heard these voices again, he stepped into the arena as usual. A woman stood before him, a very beautiful woman, very elegantly dressed. She had a fan in her hand and her eyes seemed to be looking at a vile creature.

"You're disgusting...Oh, humans, just looking at your faces makes me sick." the woman suddenly said, James frowned at what he heard and then said, "Gosh lady, you are mad ugly no?".

These words made the whole arena burst into laughter.

"You vile creature, I'm a vampire, how dare a lowly race like you speak to me like that!" the woman suddenly shouted, suddenly her fan disappeared and her hands became claw-like.

James glanced at her briefly, shook his head and then snapped his fingers and said, "Ooooh, so that's why you call yourselves Uprace!" which made the viewers even laugh more.

With those words, he removed Clarent from his inventory and then relaxed his shoulders, just as he was about to attack, the vampire disappeared and suddenly appeared in front of James.

James crouched down with incredible speed to avoid the blow to his throat, and then, as hard as he could, using every muscle in his body, he delivered an uppercut to the vampire's jaw.

The vampire flew several metres away and then stumbled to her feet. James had attacked her so heavily because she was trying to deliver precise strikes at vital points.

"An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, madam," James said suddenly, and the energy around the vampire changed completely.

James' eyes suddenly widened, he could see that the woman in front of him had an aura on the same level as his.

"You inferior race, I am a member of the high vampire race! I made it to the 48th floor, you idiot! HOW DARE YOU HIT ME!"

After the woman's sudden shouts, the aura around suddenly turned towards James.

"You still lose most of your power when you are here though no?" said James.

James realised that he was being pushed backwards by the impact as if the weight of the aura was pushing him backwards by grabbing his arms and legs.

James was not going to be defeated though, as he spread a massive sum of aura over his entire body, as much as he could use, and was instantly freed from the impact.

The vampire was surprised for a few seconds when she saw this aura level and suddenly asked, "How can a piece of rubbish like you have such a huge aura when you only made it to the tenth floor!"

Hearing this, James replied with numbness on his face, "Maybe because this piece of rubbish is superior to someone like you."

However, James, who was holding Clarent tightly, suddenly attacked. The sounds of collision were rising in the arena and the sounds of cheering from around gave strength to both the vampire and James.

At that very moment, James took a few steps back and then opened his palm towards her.

When the vampire saw this, she protected himself with her aura and smiled as if she was convinced that any attack that might come at her now could not penetrate her aura.

"You can use magic, huh? I've heard a few rumours about that. Someone who can use both aura and magic was realised by someone from the scout guild when they watched your body from a distance. Still, it's foolish of you to think that a low-level magic status can surpass my blood aura!"

The vampire who had spoken those words suddenly saw the smile that had risen on James' face, instantly felt every hair on his body stand on end, and then, in an attempt to protect himself, he immediately formed a barrier of blood in front of him.

It was too late, a massive wall of flames had burned through her blood barrier and started to burn her aura with it.

At that moment, James' voice was heard:

"Well, that all changes when it comes to the legendary grade of fire elemental, doesn't it?"
