I Became the Demon King of Lust

When morning came, I went down to an awkward scene.

It seemed that everyone remembered their actions from last night and were now feeling shame about it.

They wouldn't look at me directly, so I couldn't help revealing a bitter smile when I saw them like this.

But still, this was better than the alternative.

If they had remained as aggressive as last night, that would have been bad for me.

There was only so much that my suggestion could make them forget.

Once they reached a certain point, it would no longer keep them in the dark and I wouldn't be able to maintain the fragile balance that I currently had.

Luckily there were others that were able to make them forget about all of this.

For the next two days, I was able to distract them by having the others do all kinds of activities with them that I was able to not be intruded on in the middle of the night.

When these three days of rest were over, it was time for the third round to begin.

We didn't have to watch the first matches, but I wanted to since it would be a good chance to see what these other contestants were capable of. Even if I had the data that Alex gave me, nothing was better than seeing their power firsthand.

So I wanted to see just what they were capable of.

And I had to say…I was a bit disappointed.

After seeing the powers that Tammy, Alex, and Julius' groups had, the fights between those that were lower ranked seemed disappointing. Though there were a few interesting fights, they weren't really considered that powerful.

It was more that they had interesting powers that I had never seen before.

I really couldn't look down on the others from the large guilds.

But there was also one more that I couldn't help taking note of.

It was one of the few unassociated people that had made it through the second round.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

This was someone who had a very interesting power.

It might have seemed like a wind attributed power at first with the way that they were using it, but for those that had trained eyes, they could see that this wasn't the case.

This person was using wind blades to attack their enemy, but that was only what it seemed on the surface.

In truth, what they were actually doing was manipulating space itself.

So what they were throwing at their enemy were spatial slashes.

If any of these spatial slashes hit their enemy, it would have certainly cut them cleanly in half. That was just how sharp these spatial blades were, judging by how they cut cleanly through the stage.

However, everyone else seemed to believe that this was just some form of wind power.

When I raised the phone that Alex gave me to point at this person, I found that this person wasn't actually in the database. It seemed that this person really was an unknown person based on the fact that even Eden's database didn't have any information on this person.

I looked at Alex in another part of the arena and he looked at me with a bitter smile while shaking his head.

I looked at Julius as well, but he also shook his head to show that he didn't know about this person.

When I turned back to look at this person, I couldn't help taking a deeper look at them.

This was a handsome young man with slicked back black hair and sharp black eyes. It seemed like he was a very serious kind of person with the way that this made him look, but he was also moving in a playful manner like he wasn't taking this seriously.

It really was hard to figure out just what this person was about, but one thing was for certain…

He was strong.

When it was all over, his opponent had no choice but to give up.

His opponent had been one of the entrants from a large guild and he thought that it would be an easy victory since his opponent was an unaffiliated Awakener.

But it had been a much closer match that he thought it would be.

That was because the unaffiliated Awakener had been controlling him the entire time, to make it seem like a closer match.

It was most likely to hide himself so he wouldn't attract any unwanted attention.

But this couldn't be hidden from those with sharp eyes.

From the movement of this young man, it was clear that he was controlling his enemy the entire time. He was using his attacks to guide his enemy to move in the way that he wanted the enemy to move, which allowed him to manipulate his enemy how he wanted.

The Awakener from the large guild never realized this.

In the end, he just fell down and fainted because of exhaustion.

It seemed that not everyone in the first round could be underestimated.

There were some that were indeed powerful…

As for the other fights in the first round, there wasn't anyone else that caught my attention.

There were some that could pose a threat, but they weren't really that powerful in the end.

Or rather, the young man with the spatial ability had left too big of an impression that I couldn't feel anything about the others that didn't stand out as much.

So in the end, I could only pay attention to that young man.

Once that first round was over, it was time to draw for the second round which was the round of thirty two that would start tomorrow.

This time, it concerned us since our group was getting involved.

I wasn't since I had a bye to the top 8, but the rest of my group that had made it would be going into this second round.

So once it was over, they were called onto the stage to draw for their fights tomorrow.
