[Virtual World] Cyber Abyss Volume 1: The Kingdom of New Tokyo

Chapter 5 Part 3

1.5.3---------------------------------------------

After transporting back to the lab, Yosuke Masuda finally sensed the sentiment of his victory. Of course, the crowd cheering for Frederyk Conway couldn't believe the outcome of the match.

Unquestionably, Yosuke couldn't believe it either.

But by looking at the faces of the people who were mocking him earlier, it never felt satisfying for Yosuke like before. It was his first win in a match with his Flame Sword. It was also the first time he won a match in ages.

Yosuke smiled as he hugged his sword while celebrating his victory. Although in that scene, he looked like a pervert to everyone as the sword had the metallic mark 'Haley Ambrosia's property'.

---------------------------------------------

After being treated, Frederyk Conway immediately left the clinic inside the Ambrosia Laboratory. As he marched toward the exit of the lab, Frederyk was still grinding his teeth, still frustrated about what he considered the most disgraceful match in his life.

Not just a simple family heir, but the future of Wind Slash Clan was mostly in his hands. What would his fellow clan members think of him if they found out that the heir of their prestigious clan was defeated by the hands of a Flame Clan janitor boy that couldn't even use his flame ability? Or rather, what kind of response the media in new Tokyo would think of the clan if this incident spread around the kingdom?

After leaving the clinic without even doing his daily training routine, Frederyk Conway left the mansion in anger.

---------------------------------------------

After winning the fight and treated at the laboratory, the full of bandage Yosuke already continued his never ending sweeping the floor action. From the bandages wrapped on his body, one could never guess that he was the one who won the duel.

But Yosuke was aware that his victory was only based on luck. He somehow managed to land a flying sword to his opponent which was clearly beyond his capabilities. He was also aware that if Frederyk Conway had the same ability as Alexus Conway, no matter what luck he had, he still had no chance of winning.

Yosuke then cleared his mind and focused back to his duty. Even if anyone would think that he had a pathetic line of work, he was still treating his job in this mansion special because of the high salary just waiting for him around the corner. Until he remembered the 'rent and pay' tactics Haley Ambrosia planned by stealing his precious sword.

His joy then suddenly vanished.

Upon sighing, Yosuke noticed a girl and a boy that seemed to be slowly approaching him.

It was Krysta Misashi, together with Kengo.

Leaving Kengo aside, Yosuke stopped sweeping the floor for a while and stared at Krysta curiously. He was well aware of Krysta being Haley's childhood friend. From by their ways of interaction, it was clear to him that Haley treated her like her own sister. Although she seemed to be weak and fragile, people at the mansion seemed to have confidence in her work.

When the two reached him, the janitor boy greeted them boastfully.

"Good morning, Krysta-san, Kengo-san. What are you guys doing here? Congratulating me?"

"The hell I would do that! Well, I heard you're only pretending to be Haley-sama's lover to stop that marriage. I have to thank you for that."

"Yes." Krysta expressed her gratitude. "Thank you so much for working hard for Haley-sama."
