To Walk The Mist Chapter 123

Ed and the rest felt the eyes of the fighters pierce through them, as though trying to find who the rankless one was .

"Observator? What kind of card is this?" the curator raised a brow at Nti Anem .

"Slot it in and find out . " Nti Anem answered and the curator did as said .

"Who do you wish to fight?" he asked .

"Let the tower decide . " Nti Anem answered .

When he did, Nti Anem's name remained blank on the board, not paired with any other .

"Have you fought before? I have never seen this kind of situation . " the curator frowned .

"There are no fights for me to fight means just that . Move on . " Nti Anem said and the curator paused . But he was right . The tower had decided .

"Observator . Does this mean you are only going to just watch the games till the top level?" Ku Jian asked and Nti Anem nodded .

"Impossible! Don't make up stuff!" before the curator could rebuke Nti Anem, one of the fighters had opened his mouth .

"And if I do?" Nti Anem asked .

"I will crawl backwards!" he answered .

"Hoho . . . You are really full of energy . Hot blood flowing to your head! But, think about it; this tower has a mind of it's own . How can you know what it thinks? Besides, do you know why it is so for me?" Nti Anem asked and the fighter paused . He was right . Who could say they understood the tower? Every once in a while something odd happens and an odd ball steps in . Won't it be him just dropping a stone on his own foot if he is wrong? Would he have to crawl backwards? The man paled .

The curator slot in Ed's card next and saw ten names immediately arrange under his . At this, the curator paused . He was not the only one who frowned at this development .

"Is this what rankless means?" someone asked .

"Ya! Seven of those names are in the top ten . " someone exclaimed .

"So what? Don't you understand what this means in the tower? It does not particularly represent his strength . It just means the tower wants to torture him . " another said .

"Still, everyone the tower has put in top places were always able to hold their own . The ranking is not just a torture plate . "

"Boy, you should wait and train some weeks . These names are no joke . " the curator suddenly pitied Ed greatly . What did this boy do wrong to the tower to put him in this kind of position .

"It does not matter . " Ed said .

"I know this is time one would feel heroic boy, but you should think logically . Two people on that list, always kill their opponents . " the curator said and the others agreed .

"That's true! Ephiom and Hammer head . They insist on killing those who fight them!" someone said .

"This boy has such bad luck!" another said .

"Boy, do you still want to fight?" the curator asked Ed .

"Why do you keep calling Brother Ed a boy? He is clearly the same age as you!" Ku Jian said .

"Little girl, at his cultivation level he is still a child . You on the other hand . You look young making one confused, when you are clearly already an old woman!" the curator said .

"You dare call me an . . . . !" Ku Jian started to scold .

"I will fight . " Ed said and they all paused .

"The new ones never listen . " someone said .

"How would they? They leave their homes where they are best cultivators and think they are the best outside too . " another snorted .

"I would love to see his fight . I bet he would loose . " Ed's disregard for their advise ticked off a lot of them .

"Fine . Take a seat and wait . " the curator said .

"Put in mine!" Ku Jian said excitedly, " I want to play too!" Ku Jian said to the curator and he frowned . The fighters were already very annoyed by Ed's crew . Ku Jian taking this as a game caused even more anger .

"Who brought all these people here? Hurry up and scram from this place! Do you think this is a joke?"
