Vol.2 Ch.69: 30F - Battle x Gamble

Vol.2 Ch.69 30F - Battle x Gamble (1): 

As the scene takes us back to where the last chapter ended, we follow Jyu Viole Grace and his group as other E rank regulars are gossiping around them. As they go, a young looking regular approaches Viole, presenting himself as Dede, tells his story and pledges his support to the slayer Candidate and to FUG. Not too far from there, Ron Mei and Viviolga discuss the ruckus and where's Varagarv, stating that if he was there, him or the slayer candidate would be dead already.

Back in his accomodations, Viole is looking down, to which Xia Xia asks him the reason. The former asks the latter if her motivations to team up with him are like the ones of Dede. The bunny girl answers by saying it's not the same at all, and it is  petty money and greed that makes her follow. When Viole expresses his relief, Xia Xia sarcastically asks him why? He answers with: "It's good that nothing happened to you". It seems to bother her, as we follow her in the corridor, still thinking about it, and having a conversation with Novick passing by. The Spear Bearer tells her that Baam has a kind of light that some people will follow no matter where it goes. As he rents about it, we see that Viole is being watched by tiny Rak hidden under a hood.

In another corridor, Leesoo espresses his concern about the missing Hatsu to Anak. She tells him to not worry and to understand that the swordsman might be mourning the loss of his swords, and does not want to be disturbed. Leesoo then says "I wish that Koon was there at time like that...", as the duo crosses the path of a mysterious regular with a mask revealing only the left blue eye and blond hair under a hooded jacket.

The scene shifts back to the stadium, where Io and Punk give more details on the upcoming workshop battle. First there will be a round of individual matches, followed by a round of team matches and the members of the winning team will be the workshop battle winners. The team leaders are designated according to their score in the "one shot one opportunity" event.

The mysterious mask guy, Leesoo, Reflejo, Ron Mei, Bellux, Devil Bon, Goonter, Hyun Chu, Miya and Rodni are appointed to be the "Gamblers" on the individual matches. They won't be directly participating in the battles, instead they have to bet and win the money they're going to use for their team in the next phase, while only the 6 teams with the most money will proceed from amongst the 10 nominees.

The first match is called "plug", 8 regulars enter the platform holding a rod, and the three first to put their rod in the plug in the middle of the platform are the winners. The game won't end until the plug is in the hole. The names of the participants for the group 1 are published, among them are Wangnan, Akraptor, Prince and Miseng. The two men from Team Tangsooyook are bolstered by the idea of meeting and rescuing their kidnapped comrades. As they enter the arena calling for Prince and Miseng, they witness the arrival of Prince completely beaten up. The latter then tells his former teammates to run as Miseng enters the stadium with her Rod crimson and covered with blood. As we zoom onto her eye gleeming from a kind of malevolent possession, Prince adds: "She's insane!".

SIU's Afterword
Apparently it has 3 years since my first release of TOG, I usually don't really care about those thing; but i´m proud of the fact that I'm doing a serie on Naver, wich is the most popular website, hehe (in Korea).

The betting game and the team toiurnament is the highlight of the story so the individual matches will end a bit soon.

I think the tournament will be quiet different from the typical tournament too. ^^

the weather recently has been getting really hot and many people would be stress out from exams, so I hope that you will regain some strength after reading the Web-Toon.

Thank you for your congratulations on the 3rd year anniversary.
