Chapter 18: Can I Kiss You?

“A specific action? What’s that?”

Linley Bart asked the system. This was the first time he had encountered something like this.

For example, the Bronze Treasure Chests and Gold Treasure Chests were all fixed to a certain place. The conditions for this Special Mysterious Treasure Chest to appear were really strange.

“The precondition for the appearance of the mysterious treasure chest is:

to kiss a girl.”

Linley Bart’s jaw dropped, as though he had been scared silly.

“System, are you messing with me?”

The system did not respond. Instead, it said,

“Countdown to the disappearance of the Special Mysterious Treasure Chest begins; 9.59… 9.58…”

Linley Bart didn’t know how to react to this. This Special Mysterious Treasure Chest was too…

He had to kiss a girl to get the treasure chest!

Furthermore, he was in the middle of a competition. He couldn’t step down from the arena to find a girl…

Wait…

Linley Bart turned to look at Alice. Does that mean that if he wanted the Special Mysterious Treasure Chest, he could only kiss this girl in front of him?

She was now his opponent. To kiss her was no easy task.

This was truly a difficult problem. If a treasure chest appeared in the arena like before, Linley Bart would be very happy.

But this “Special Mysterious Treasure Chest” just had to be so strange. It would only appear after Linley had completed something.

This made things very difficult for Linley. What should he do?

Furthermore, the Special Mysterious Treasure Chest also had a time limit. He could not possibly wait forever.

“What’s inside the Special Mysterious Treasure Chest?”

“The contents of the Special Mysterious Treasure Chest cannot be known before it is opened. However, it would definitely consist of a special item or ability or even a character!”

“Characters?” Linley Bart asked curiously. “Can people come out from the treasure chests?”

“Yes, the Special Mysterious Treasure Chest might summon a certain spirit for the host. Every spirit has powerful and unique abilities and they will be absolutely loyal to the host. They will obey any of the host’s orders and can be regarded as the host’s servant!”

“That sounds pretty good.”

Linley Bart felt that the items from the Special Mysterious Treasure Chest shouldn’t be any worse than those from the Diamond Treasure Chest. At least, it definitely wouldn’t give him anything worse than the strange ability of “tying shoelaces automatically when wearing shoes”.

If it was this sort of ability, then in the future, even if Linley Bart was beaten to death, he would never believe in the system again!

“Don’t worry, host. I promise you that it won’t be a useless ability.”

The system saw through Linley Bart’s thoughts and replied.

“All the contents in the Special Mysterious Treasure Chests are super gifts!”

“With your promise, I’m relieved.”

Linley Bart quickly made up his mind. He had to get this Special Mysterious Treasure Chest!

Linley Bart turned his gaze towards Alice.

No matter how one looked at it, she was a beautiful girl, even if everyone called her a “mercenary princess”.

However, in terms of appearance, she was definitely as beautiful as a princess.

Her golden hair, fair face, and cherry pink lips were all very charming.

Alice could sense Linley’s gaze. She had a strange feeling that Linley’s gaze was very strange…

It was a feeling that was hard to describe as if she was being seen through.

But it still felt very strange!

Linley Bart was slowly walking towards Alice.

Alice suddenly felt her heart pounding. He was coming over… Coming over…

He was getting closer and closer!

Was this an illusion or not?

Alice was momentarily confused. Linley Bart, who had been walking around the competition stage, was now walking towards her!

For a sorcerer, the most important thing was distance.

This was because the casting distance of every mage might not be the same. It all depended on talent. Some fireballs might have a further range, while others might be shorter.

This was also determined by one’s own practice and feel. Sorcerers were not swordsmen. All their attacks had to be released when they were safe.

Most of them were long-range.

For long-range sorcerers, the most important thing was to gauge the distance.

A powerful sorcerer could constantly control the distance from the opponent such that the opponent could never hit him but he could hit the opponent.

When the opponent wanted to hit oneself, one would pull away immediately. When the opponent could not hit oneself, one would then attack the opponent.

This was a great test of a sorcerer’s judgment and consciousness. It was not something an ordinary person could do.

However, almost every sorcerer could understand the principle of controlling distance. This was because sorcerers rarely fought in close combat.

Of course, close combat sorcerers were exceptions.

Usually, the sorcerers would stay far away from their opponents and use their magic to make the opponents lose their ability to use magic. This would also avoid letting the opponent’s magic spell from hitting them.

But Linley Bart was different. He merely walked over.

Without any protective magic spells active, he walked towards Alice.

“Is he finally going to attack?”

The audience below the stage finally cheered after watching for so long. They were finally going to fight!

“Is Linley using some sort of magic? I can’t tell if he’s using magic.”

“Yes, it’s definitely spiritual magic. He must be preparing to use spiritual magic!”

Alice’s heart clenched. It seemed as though Linley was preparing to attack.

The closer one was to spiritual magic, the stronger its control!

Alice finally thought of this point. She began to use a new spell to protect herself. She could not let Linley Bart come near her!

However, Linley Bart did something no one had expected. He scratched his head awkwardly as if hesitating whether or not to say something. But in the end, he took a deep breath and asked,

“Miss, can I kiss you?”

This sentence shocked everyone on and off the arena, including the teachers.

No one expected that someone would dare to say such words in the competition arena.

But when they thought back to Linley’s past self, they realized that this kid really was a prodigal!
