Rebirth: Over the Horizon

As soon as they entered the net cafe a female staff greeted them "Ms Crystal,"

Jane nodded and said "My brother is the one going to compete"

'She should have visited here frequently, even the service staff knows her' Adam thought and his eyes quickly swept through the brightly lit lobby, there many people playing online games while eating food and snacks without any waves in their hearts.

There is nothing wrong with being like that, he was also like this at some point in his previous life.

Adam sighed and got straight to the point, "We are going directly to the challenge area." his gaze fell on the challenge position, where there was only one seat.

In other words, the defender in this game is an A.I

Adam quickly passed the group of youngsters whose mouth was still wide open from the sight of him, especially girls, they were literally holding their breaths.

Adam placed himself on the comfy chair put on the Bluetooth reactors and turned on the hologram screen.

"Are you sure you want to challenge the defender? You need to pay 300$." The electronic synthesis sounded, and it sounded like a noble and elegant female voice.

Adam let out a long breath: "Yes, I'm sure." His eyes brightened instantly. At this time, the players already regained their composures and looked at him, their eyes a little unpleasant. Obviously, they had previously failed when challenging the defender.

But, it was ADAM CRYSTAL they can't help but feel jealous.

A champion formed before his eyes and a knight with a long sword appeared on the other, he glanced at his champion's health bar.

[1000/1000]

1...2...3...

START!

The game's rule was simple there was a timer on the top left side of the hologram, the one who gets the most kills of the other is the winner of the game.

It was a battle royale between Adam and the A.I

The knight swiftly moved despite his heavy armour, his champion was equipped with a rapier that had two offence skills: Twin sword, Rapier's Rage

And a defend skill: Ultimate Block

The MP for each skill was 100, the total MP of Adam's champion was 400, the recovery rate was 10 MP/ sec.

He still didn't know any details about the opponent, but one thing is for sure the knight's health bar is also 1000.

Just as he feared the opponent was OP. Instead of striking with his sword, red flames were coming out from it. One of them directly his champion body, drawing away a tube of HP.

But, he didn't panic at all Adam quickly moved his champion and hid behind a tree.

After some seconds Adam moved his champion into the attack range of knight.

As he thought, this time also the knight didn't attack him with the sword, flames quickly erupted and tried to attack him, instead of running, this time Adam swiftly dogged it and closed the distance between them.

"Twin sword"

A column of swords appeared above the knight and landed upon the knight perfectly drawing away three tubes of HP.

The champion swirled around and launched head hit, with a critical strike, the knight's last tube disappeared and it died.

Kills: 1 Death: 0

"Your Champion has killed the Holy Knight"

At the loud announcement, the players were stunned and the staff's eyebrow twitched. Jane on the other side was jumping in joy.

Adam smirked 4 min has passed now, only 6 minutes were remaining, he quickly moved around and hid behind a huge boulder.

The knight re-appeared at the initial point, this time it moved around slowly and cautiously, Adam had already placed his champion in a position that is perfect for the sneak attack.

But, he didn't rush forward, even if the knight appeared, just as he expected the calm knight suddenly swung it is sword-like someone was going to appear there.

A huge crater was visible as the knight started to withdraw his sword, using this chance Adam appeared behind it and used his skill.

"Rapier's Rage"

His champion suddenly went into a frenzied state dealing ten blows in a second, but it only reduced two tubes of knight's HP.

To his surprise there were five health tube's this time, the knight's HP rose from 1000 to 1250.

Flames suddenly formed in the place where he was standing, he quickly used the blocking skill.

"Ultimate Block"

By the time he started to retreat, the knight was already nowhere to be found. The champion quickly left the place but still, his one tube was empty.

Just as he was retreating a notification appeared in red colour "-250" another tube disappeared from his champion.

Adam swirled his champion and spotted the knight, who was throwing daggers at him while sitting on the top of the tree.

'Is this some kind of new shit' Adam quickly hid beside the rock and cursed in his mind? There were only two tubes left for him and the time remaining was 1 minute 13 seconds.

The rock in which he was hiding suddenly blew apart and he received a head it from the knight, the champions HP reduced from 2 Tubes to the half tube. He was left with 125/1000.

The knight raised his sword again, Adam's rippling eyes suddenly turned like still water, he focused 'There must be a way' and pulled his hand as fast as he can.

His champion was wielding a rapier, then its advantage should be agility, Adam placed his faith in this.

Just as he expected the champion jumped fastly and perfectly, while the champion was in the mid-air, Adam activated "Twin blade"

Its CD has finished long ago, he was just waiting for the perfect opportunity. Only 5 seconds was left at this time.

A column of swords appeared above the knight's head

...4

Adam's champion landed on the ground.

...3

The swords descended.

...3

And emptied the knight's all three tubes.

...2

The Knight died.

...1

"Congratulations times for the player to kill the defender"

"Results: 2 : 0"

The loud voice echoed, even the spectators were also holding their breath, the last ten seconds were like an eternity for them.

They all cheered for him as he walked out of the arena place.

The staff's face twisted around angrily, once the calm and composure were now, no were to be seen.

She pressed a button in her wristband and suddenly a group of men covering their faces with masks stormed inside the net cafe, capturing Jane and some other youngsters.

"All of you, halt in your positions"
