Chapter 136: 136, Hey, haven’t you eaten yet? _1
Translator: 549690339
“Gah!”
“Ah!”
Inside the Unicorn trials arena, Tina and Instructor Marguerite have started a fierce duel.
The sharp lance pierces the air, its chilling blade stirring up bursts of red.
Both are employing skills from the new “Knight” class presented in the second expansion pack, which are incredibly suitable for mounted combat.
[Horse Riding Charge], [Swipe], [Backhorse Spear], [Man and Horse as One]…. All these skills were coming into play.
With both parties going all out, the white and gold auras clashed, and the surrounding space violently vibrated.
If the arena’s ground hadn’t been specially processed, it would have already cracked by now.
Su Yu was watching from the sidelines.
Before the fight began, he switched to first-person view, planning to record the battle and post it on the official website.
Even though posting this video would expose the fact that he was participating in two main storylines.
But the later stages of Tina’s storyline would inevitably cause a large-scale battle involving thousands or even tens of thousands of players. They would eventually find out that he was the one involved in the main quests anyway, so he couldn’t hide it forever.
He might as well let the players know now and earn some spare cash.
While watching the two women fight, Su Yu took out a bag of sunflower seeds and ate them with relish.

After a while, Su Yu glanced at a little girl beside him: “Hey, haven’t you eaten yet?”
Hearing Su Yu’s words, the little girl stomped her foot, her face flushing with anger, “You’ve gone too far!!!”
The little girl intensified her efforts, firing arrows one after another towards Su Yu’s [Earth Shield], the arrows scraping against the [Earth Shield] and creating an unpleasant sound of friction.
In reality, it wasn’t just Tina fighting, but Su Yu and the little girl were battling as well.
This little girl, called Ai Yi, is a Knight’s Squire under Instructor Marguerite.
According to the rules of these trials, Knights and Instructors battle, and so do their Squires.
If the Knight loses, she won’t qualify to join the Unicorn Knight Group;
If the Squire loses, the Knight must replace the Squire. (Failure of the mission)
Hence, while Tina and the Instructor were having their intense battle, Su Yu and little Ai Yi were also having a direct confrontation.
Ai Yi was at the same level as Su Yu, a level 26 Archer with a shooting specialty.
As soon as the battle began, she continuously shot powerful arrows towards Su Yu.
But Su Yu wasn’t just any player.
Before the battle began, he had already gathered magical power and launched a 25 times thicker [Earth’s Shield]. He also put on the complete set of level 21 cloth armor given during the 16-19 round of the Princess questline, greatly improving his physical defense.
The arrows Ai Yi shot at the [Earth’s Shield x 25], merely created ripples and were unable to shatter the shield.
Consequently, Su Yu leisurely cracked sunflower seeds, ignored Ai Yi, and watched Tina’s and the Instructor’s fight off to the side.
Ai Yi was already peeved by Su Yu’s disregard, but his comment – “Hey, haven’t you eaten yet?” ignited her long-suppressed rage.
“You’ve gone too far! Are you saying that my strength is insufficient and I can’t even break a simple shield, right? I will definitely break it today to show you!”
Ai Yi, fuming at Su Yu, gathered her largest amount of power and continued firing arrows at the [Earth Shield].
“Um, you’ve misunderstood.” Su Yu explained, “I meant if you haven’t eaten, would you like some sunflower seeds? I have many packs left.”
Saying this, Su Yu took out two more packs of sunflower seeds from his bag and threw them towards Ai Yi.
Crunch, crunch, crunch.
The sunflower seeds fell at Ai Yi’s feet.
One pack is intact, but the other pack’s wrapper was torn by an arrow, scattering the seeds all over the ground.
Ai Yi stopped firing.
As she looked at the scattered seeds at her feet, her face turned pale and then flushed. A sense of deep humiliation she had never felt before washed over her.
“Auntie, I refuse to compete anymore! This is too annoying! Waaaa!” Ai Yi’s mental state collapsed as she threw her bow and arrow on the ground, covering her face as she ran out of the trials arena.
“Waah….” The little girl’s crying gradually faded into the distance.
Marguerite was still engaged in battle with Tina when she noticed her attendant and niece run out.
However, she dared not lose focus. The pressure that Tina applied was too great, and she had to remain wholly committed to the battle to barely contend with Tina’s attacks.
At the same time, Su Yu received a game prompt:
“Ding, [Orleans City Saintess] fifth-ring mission has been completed, received 1000 Experience Points.”
“Ah, these girls nowadays, they can’t handle any pressure. Besides, I only asked if you had eaten, how is that an insult to you?”
Su Yu walked over and picked up the untouched bag of sunflower seeds.
As for the bow and arrows that the young girl had discarded, Su Yu didn’t bother to pick them up.
It was merely a weapon of rare grade; Su Yu didn’t bother with it. Moreover, picking it up might irritate Tina. If her favorability dropped, it would be a loss rather than a gain.
…
However, the battle between Tina and the instructor came close to its end now.
Tina was at Level 50 while Instructor Marguerite was Level 56, Tina was at a slight disadvantage in terms of level.
However, Tina was, after all, the Chosen One. Her mighty God Level bloodline conferred on her the strength to take on higher-level opponents; a mere 6-level gap was something “Arrogant Tina” could easily overcome.
Zing――
With a piercing sound of clashing metal, Tina’s lance knocked off the instructor’s lance, landed a blow to her abdomen, and knocked her off her horse.
The instructor fell heavily onto the ground, spat out a mouthful of blood, and lay unconscious.
The battle ended with Tina’s victory!
However, Tina wasn’t feeling very well either.
After all, it was a higher-level challenge. She was nearly drained of energy and swayed in her saddle before falling off her unicorn.
“Hui hui—”
Tina’s unicorn perceived its master falling and swiftly twisted its body in an attempt to catch her.
But Su Yu was faster.
The moment Tina fell off her horse, he had already flashed to her side.
However, Su Yu did not reach his arms out to catch Tina like the leading man in a TV drama would.
Considering Tina’s armor had been enhanced by [Kelly], it weighed several hundred pounds. Despite his best intentions, Su Yu – a Level 26 mage – was simply unable to support such weight.
Clang—
Once Tina landed on the ground, Su Yu rushed over, feigning concern: “Tina, are you okay? You’ve lost so much blood! Let me help you clean your wounds.”
Su Yu switched off the first-person view, took out a large amount of tissue from his backpack, and began wiping away the blood on Tina.
The unicorn, Anna, lit up the horn on her head cast [Healing Skill] on Tina
But seeing this, Su Yu promptly threw the bag of sunflower seeds at her horn, interrupting the [Healing Skill]:
“Anna, you’ve expended a lot in the previous fight. Don’t drain your magic power any further. Eat some sunflower seeds. I can take care of Tina’s injuries.”
The bag of sunflower seeds was ripped open by the horn, and the seeds scattered over the ground.
However, the unicorn Anna didn’t mind. Unaware of Su Yu’s “ulterior motives,” she dropped her head and began to eat the scattered seeds.
“Thank you, Nemesis.” Tina’s voice was soft.
Seeing Su Yu meticulously wiping away her blood, Tina was incredibly moved.
“You’re welcome” Su Yu responded with a smile.
Tina turned her head to look at Instructor Marguerite, her expression becoming serious: “Instructor, I won this time!”
“Ah, indeed you did.” Marguerite lay half on the ground, her face pale.
She hadn’t expected to be defeated by a rookie. She must admit that she was an astonishing rookie!
“Tina, congratulations on completing the trial.” Marguerite said somewhat despondently: “The [Trial Secret Realm] is located in the underground chamber beneath the trial field. Follow me.”
Su Yu received a game prompt:
“Ding, your mainline has been updated, [Orleans City Saintess (6/100)]”.
“Task requirement: Accompany Tina through the [Trial Secret Realm].”
“Task Reward: Rewards will be given randomly according to the degree of task completion.”
