Love At The Wrong Table

@+30%3

He revered only two individuals on Dark Night Islands. One was Xarri, and the one he

revered most was Rhett.

#

This was because he knew Rhett’s strength and character very well. This man was born

with an aura of a king, a natural–born ruler.

Even the members of the Ophanim Clan believed that their leader would not take

action.

In last year’s championship battle, both Xan and Rhett were on the stage. If Rhett had

joined forces with Xan, Xarri would have indeed been defeated, even if he had

formidable powers.

But he insisted on a fair duel with Xarri, voluntarily asking Xan to leave the stage and

face Xarri alone.

The Ruler’s Challenge

Even Quell knew that the outcome might have been different if Rhett had not been

arrogant last year and had let Xan wear down Xarri’s strength.

However, to everyone’s surprise tonight, Rhett suddenly opened his eyes and leapt onto

the stage!

The entire audience was stunned.

No one expected the Ophanim Clan’s leader to hold the Solar Group in such high

regard.

“Haha, Rhett! You know that I am the protagonist. You as the great demon king will

have a final battle with me, right?”

Quintus was still as childish as ever.

Emmanuel couldn’t help but cover his head.

The Ruler’s Challenge

What is going through his mind? In the past, it has always been about knights and

princesses, and now it’s about the protagonist and the demon king. Even at his age, he

still acts like a young boy in a two–dimensional world!

“Rhett, there is no need for you to act!” Xan exclaimed in shock.

But Rhett raised a hand, turned his back to Xan, and said, “Since they want to challenge

me, Xan, you should step down!”

What?!

Many were astonished by Rhett’s decision.

Emmanuel was no exception. This is a battle concerning the fate of an entire clan!

However, he also knew that this was Rhett’s confidence.

To his surprise, the aloof Xan left the stage without a word,

The Ruler’s Challenge

According to the rules, contestants could enter the stage together or separately, but

once on the stage, they would lose their qualification if they left.

To others, this scene was incredible. Even if Rhett wanted to take on the two alone, Xan

need not need to leave. He could have stayed on the stage to provide help if needed.

But Xan knew very well that Ophanim Clan’s leader would never team up with anyone to

fight. This was the dignity of a king!

Emmanuel sensed this, too, but wasn’t sure if it was good or bad.

Especially since Rhett had told him he believed Emmanuel could unite everyone on the

island and fight alongside him.

At that time, Emmanuel thought he genuinely wanted to fight together. Still, now he

realized that Rhett wanted him to lead Dark Night Islands to challenge and deliver a

fatal blow to the Airspace Group, ending the history of Dark Night Islands!

Chapter 1781 The Ruler’s Challenge

“Come on! You weaklings!”

After Xan left, Rhett stood with his hands behind his back, taunting Quintus and the

others.

To the onlookers, this scene once again demonstrated the overwhelming presence of

the Ophanim Clan’s leader.

Emmanuel was no exception. He wouldn’t dare to be so overconfident if it were him, as

Quintus and Sunny were S+ level experts!

If the two of them team up, who knows how powerful their combined force is going to

be?

“Quintus, attack!”

Sunny was not as stubborn as Quintus. Two against one was within the rules. This was

a battle that gambled on the fate of their clan, and he would take the chance for victory

The Ruler’s Challenge

due to foolish pride.

However, Quintus stubbornly replied, “I won’t!”

He then stood with his hands crossed, just like Rhett.

Below the stage, the Solar Group and many others were stunned

Everyone believed that the Ophanim Clan was the top contender to rule the Dark Night

Islands. They dreamed of defeating them to become the ultimate overlords of the

island.

But facing such a rare opportunity, is the Solar Group’s representative acting childish?

Emmanuel laughed, recognizing this as the Quintus he knew. Back when he visited the

Lenoir family, Quintus had the chance to defeat him but pretended to lose and let him

leave.

The Ruler’s Challenge

This big, simple–minded man has a sense of righteousness.

Sunny also understood Quintus‘ character. This guy just wanted a one–on–one fight with

Rhett, and no one could change his mind.

However, as the leader of the Solar Group, Sunny had to fight wholeheartedly for the

clan’s victory, so he attacked Rhett with all his might.
