LGHTNOVELBOOK Chapter 30: Swing that way
Hyde recognized the voice, It was the voice of his Clan leader and after hearing it, Hyde knew he was trapped. So he quickly attacked the leader with all his might, so that at least he could injure the plan leader and escape from here.
Leader looks at him, blocking Hyde's sword with his own.
"Have you perhaps forgotten how much more powerful I am than you? You should have run away immediately after hearing my voice without trying to face me. Nor should you have attacked me. If you have decided that you have to attack me then fine, let's do the right thing. Let me show you what happens if you betray the clan?"
After the Clan leader finished speaking, he pushed the Hyde's sword back with his sword.
And he attacks Hyde's right leg with his left, forcing him to fall to his knees.
During this, Hyde's sword dropped from his hands and the Braska took advantage of this opportunity, caught Hyde's
dominant hand the one he used to hold his sword and twisted it in a weird angle making sure he wasn't able to wield one again and sound of broken bones and Hyde's painful roars were echoing in the dimly lit room but this didn't calm Braska's fury and he held Hyde's hair with his other hand and hit his head on a table nearby.
The attack was so forceful that the table broke into pieces and Hyde's head began bleeding. Braska's attack was so powerful that if a normal human was in Hyde's place, he would have died on the spot. But Hyde was a member of this clan as well as powerful, so he was atleast able live after this little spar.
Chris was sitting on a sofa in a dark corner of the room, watching all this happening, "Wow, what a fantastic scene you are just too good man just one hit and the other guy was flat, you should try the role of a villain or something in a movie and I am sure you are going to nail it.
Chris room was a mess. There were broken tables and blood all over his room. But he seemed unconcerned about all this.
Braska turned to Chris and cleaning his blood stained hands with the help of a small cloth said,
"I will take care of it and as far as your marriage is concerned, we all have decided that there will be a small competition among all the girls and the winner of the competition will fight with you and if you defeat her then you can marry the girl of your choice. But if you are unable to defeat her then you will have to marry the girl of our choice. So that is why I am asking you in advance. If you don't think that you will be able to win this competition then you should tell me in advance about any girl you are interested in"
Chris was surprised to hear what Braska said and he carefully asked, "are all the girls participating"
Hearing Chris's question, for a moment Braska could not understand what reply he should give and then suddenly a thought came to his mind and while putting forward his point very carefully he said, "Perhaps, Do you swing that way"
Had it been his original world Christopher would have definitely explained, but not here. Not to these tribal people, because they didn't deserve his explanation and the persona he built around. Didn't let him explain anything and just replied with a simple "NO, I am not".
Chris was thinking in his mind. 'What times have come when I have to explain myself and all these idiots have no idea how big a player I am. I am invincible, one who was had no rivals when it came to girls. If they hear this I am not sure how they will look at me'.
Christopher thought while turning away, 'Ugh, come on.I was just thinking about why the hell are all the girls in your clan participating in this bloody competition Or whatever it is, I mean, I was just surprised that your clan being a matriarchal clan. I mean , I didn't think any girl would be even my ready to participate in something like that and that for a guy they don't even know about. That's not quite like them. Anyway, it's good to know that these people are taking me and my proposal seriously. So do whatever you want, until your people don't come in my way. I am okay with anything'
A little reassurance was all needed and Braska heaved a sigh of relief "Thank God you like girls otherwise I wouldn't have known who I would have gotten you married to? and maybe this marriage wouldn't have even happened."
Listening to Braska, Christopher said "you don't have to worry about that and yeah, I'm ready to participate in whatever competition you are going to organise and you don't have to worry about me not being here I'll make sure to be here by the end of it"
