Vol.3 Ch.146: New Participant 1

New Participant 1: This is the hundred and forty-sixth chapter of Volume 3 of Tower of God. While Lilial is looking for Baam she stumbles upon Androssi, Hemus Lime, and Dravy and Lilial decides to try and kill them with The Serpent Master. A fight ensues where Lilial is hurt and agrees to single combat with Androssi. At the Shinsu Warp Device Yuri steps out and ask where Baam is.

Synopsis
Androssi Zahard, Dravy, and Hemus Lime arrives by Bong Bong at the Warp stairwell, with Androssi wanting to go back and support Baam in his fight, but Dravy stops her by saying that Baam likely wanted them to leave so he could fight more freely. Androssi is about to start arguing with Dravy about her belief in Baam, but they are stopped short by Lo Po Bia Lilial Zahard who has arrived with the snakes in tow. Lilial is still looking for Baam, but as she planned to kill the rest of the Marriage Tournament participants anyway she orders the snakes to kill Dravy and Hemus Lime while bringing Androssi alive to her, so Lilial can torture her before she dies. Androssi escapes to behind the stairwell with Dravy and Hemus Lime, where they come up with a plan to catch Lilial to neutralize the threat of the snakes, with Dravy and Hemus Lime acting as a distraction while Androssi grabs Lilial. Hemus Lime is spotted first and the snakes attack her, but Hemus Lime slow them down by using her shield to spin a Shinsu thread around them and throwing them into a wall. While Lilial is distracted, Dravy attacks from behind with a shinsu infused slash, but the snakes blocks the attack for Lilial. Next attack is from Hemus Lime who runs screaming towards Lilial with the shield and a long Needle in hand, which Lilial takes as an insult and decides to beat Hemus Lime by herself. Hemus Lime tries to block a punch with he shield, but that was a feint and Lilail was actually aiming to kick her in the stomach, which she suceeds at. Hemus Lime is hurt by this, but Lilial by herself is not the same danger as the snake so she continues to lure Lilial towards the stairwell. Halfway if their stairs Lilial does a shinsu reinforced jump to get the highground on Hemus Lime, but Androssi is waiting for Lilial at the top and hits her with the Chiffon Sword mid jump.

Lilial is seriously hurt by the Chiffon Sword, which Androssi takes advantage of by attacking Lilial while she is down. The snakes wants to come to Lilial's aid, but Androssi has taken Lilial hostage in order to get the snakes to back off, since Lilial is their weak point. Although damaged Lilial is still conscious and starts proposing a bet to Androssi, where Lilial will send the snakes away and they will engage in single combat, where the loser will leave the tournament and not meddle in the affairs of the winner. Dravy tries to dissuade Androssi, but Lilial goads Androssi to accept the bet given that Lilial sends the snakes away first, which Lilail does but gives them a hidden order to bring Baam to her. Lilial travels together with Lilial to random place in the hotel using the Bong Bong and gets ready to fight, but Lilial asks for a 10 minute break, which Androssi refuse.

Back at the stairwell to the warp, Hemus Lime and Dravy are discussing what to do next, with Dravy recommending to stay were they are since there is nothing they can do and a new participant may arrive soon. The warp activates and Ha Yuri Zahard walks out from the warp, asking where the Twenty-Fifth Baam is.

The weather is getting hotter. They say that the rainy season will start soon, but I hope everyone stays healthy and without any problems. I'm fighting through this summer too.
