Chapter 372: Go and Dazzle
"Late by a whole two prayer times!"
In the grand hall of the Holy Light Divine Court, Afra was fuming and roaring loudly, gesticulating wildly.
"Late by a whole, two prayer times! Are you really that sleepy?"
"Keep your voice down, your spit is getting on my face!"
Lette rubbed his cheeks, "I didn't sleep in; I was just... having breakfast with Lilith."
"What kind of breakfast takes two prayer times to eat! Huh? Do you think I'm an idiot? What were you eating, gold?"
Lette's gaze wandered, "Fried dough sticks and soy milk."
"...What's that?"
"A highly nutritious breakfast."
Lette pointed to Joanna beside him, "Your sister Joanna has had it too, and she particularly likes it."
Joanna, suddenly mentioned, was startled and gave Lette an embarrassed glare.
"Cough, cough, they do... take some effort to eat."
"Since Sister Joanna says so... Fine."
Afra finally gave in, grumbling resentfully, "You've been late for so long, the Life Goddess faction has rushed us several times.
It started as simple inquiries.
Then came the sarcasm.
Next, they were furious.
And finally... they became humble, begging us to go."
Lette smirked, "A clear evolution of mindset. Alright, since everyone is here, let's head to the agreed Duel Arena!"
With that, Lette looked towards the Life Goddess sisters standing nearby.
"Nora Noi, if you find it difficult, you can..."
"Mr. Wright, there's no need to say more. We made up our minds to sever ties with those people completely when we left the Life God System."
Nora held her sister's hand, with a determined expression, "This time, we are here as part of the Holy Light Divine Court, cheering for you!"
Her sister Noi also nodded emphatically, not saying a word, but her gaze was as resolute as her sister's.
Lette smiled slightly, "Good, very spirited. But today, you're not cheering for me; it's your sister Afra you're supporting."
"Eh, eh, eh? Me?"
Afra, startled, said, "I'm the one fighting the Life God System?"
"Of course."
Even Joanna seemed a bit flustered, grabbing Lette's arm, "Lette, you can't joke about such matters."
"I'm not joking."
Lette shrugged, "Unfortunately, they exploited a loophole in the contract. Strictly speaking, I'm not part of the Holy Light Divine Court.
After all, I'm not even a God.
So, I can't directly participate in the battle.
Afra, this time you'll have to confront the enemy as the Lord of the Holy Light Divine Court."
"But... but I..."
Seeing her genuinely panic, Lette suddenly laughed, "Don't worry, I've prepared everything meticulously.
All you need to do is follow my instructions, and everything will be fine.
I'm just unable to take action personally, but it's not necessary for me to step in anyway."
At this point, Lette took out a stack of cards from his pocket and handed them to Afra.
"These are the tools; during the duel, both sides' divine beings have three chances to use divine artifacts or divine arts.
If you just follow my directions, there won't be any problems."
Hearing Lette's reassurance, Afra finally felt much at ease. Stuffing the stack of cards into her pocket, Afra immediately felt her stance become more confident.
"Let's go! I can't wait to teach those kids a lesson!
Nora Noi!
Watch me give those bad guys from the Life God System a good beating!"
"Alright! Let's go!"
With a command from Lette, teams of four-winged angels soared into the sky, escorting Lette and his group away from the Holy Light Divine Court, flying towards the destination [Duel Arena of Gods].
After some time in flight, everyone finally landed in the arena.
Seeing the arrival of the Holy Light Divine Court people, the Life God System and the Dragon God of the Dragon Realm, who had been waiting a long time, all breathed a sigh of relief.
They finally arrived, thank goodness.
To be honest, even though the contract was signed, these divine beings were still not at ease.
You see, Lette is famously known throughout the Demon Realm for exploiting contract loopholes.
Both Demons and Devils avoid him.
The gods aren't really sure whether the signed duel contract can bind him.
"Mr. Wright, you finally made it. I thought you would be too scared to..."
"Alright, alright."
Lette waved his hand, interrupting Rafdel's banter and mockery, "Hurry up, time is already tight, and you're still here babbling, wasting time!"
Rafdel was stunned, tight schedule was because you were late, right? How did this person's rhetoric suddenly turn it into our fault?
He was about to argue, but the Elf Dragon God stopped him.
"Alright, alright, they're here, let's start! Don't keep... those people waiting."
Rafdel, though unwilling, had no choice but to drop it in the current situation.
"Since both sides have arrived, let's begin."
"Start, start."
The vast circular Duel Arena of the Gods was filled with divine beings in the audience seats. Some were stakeholders, others purely came for the spectacle.
The Life God System and Dragon Gods gathered on one side of the arena, while Lette and his group sat on the opposite side.
As both sides took their seats, a huge head appeared above the arena.
That was the grand will of the Duel Arena of Gods, called [Judge], serving a role similar to a referee.
[Both parties in the duel are ready. According to the duel contract, the first bout is to purify the Lost Land.
Will the representatives from both sides please step onto the dueling platform.]
On the Life God System side, Rafdel did not move, but the Elf Dragon God ascended the dueling platform.
Seeing this scene, the divine beings in the audience were in an uproar, some even voicing objections.
"Isn't it supposed to be a showdown between the Life God System and the Holy Light Divine Court? What is a Dragon God doing here?"
Rafdel stood up and loudly declared, "Just yesterday, Jade Herakleir already left the Dragon Clan and joined our Life God System!
Now he fights as a member of the Life God System, which is perfectly legitimate!"
Sure enough, the Judge nodded slightly.
[The representative complies with the rules, no irregularities.]
Seeing their scheming expressions, the divine spectators were quite displeased. The Life God System didn't have a great reputation, with plenty of enemies among the gods.
But Rafdel couldn't care less and provocatively glanced over at the Holy Light Divine Court side.
"Mr. Wright, who will you send into the arena? Oh! Almost forgot to remind you, although you're powerful, Mr. Wright you're not a divine being.
So you don't count as a member of the Divine Court and, according to the contract, cannot participate!
Hahaha..."
"Oh."
Lette nonchalantly patted Afra on the head, "Go on, and shine brilliantly."
