<h4>Chapter 423 - The 5th Individual Game!</h4>
The first thing Felix did after opening his eyes was attempt to liquefy the poison internally.
He spent two hours on it until he finally seeded in liquefying 5% of his energy, making a single drop!
Although Felix was given the method and tips, he still struggled with the process itself since it required him to keep creating smaller poison balls and merging them rapidly.
If he slowed down, it wouldn''t be called a practice but if he speeds up, he easily loses focus and break the sequence.
"Emerge." Felix said while extending his hand forward. On top of it, a drop of red poison emerged from his pores like sweat and started hovering on it slowly.
"Wonder how it will taste?" Felix smiled and brought it to his mouth. Then, he licked it and his eyes couldn''t help but shine in delight at its deliciousness.
"It tastes like strawberry juice." Felix eximed, "Let''s continue practicing. Maybe I will create a small sphere after I liquefy all of the energy."
...
Half a day had gone by quickly as Felix kept engrossing himself in his practice, unbeknownst to thetest released news that shook the entire Mariana Empire.
The Three Sanctrum Federations, The Everglow Kingdom, andstly The Maganda Tribe, had all announced that Earth officially became their ally!
There was no contract signed or even a meeting was held between the two parties before the announcement.
Hence, the Council was just as shocked as everyone else!
Although it appeared quite humiliating that the Anti-Royalty Alliance didn''t even bother informing them about their decision to ally with them, the Council wasn''tining much since having those giants'' support had given them some peace of mind.
When the Council contacted The Maganda Chief and the rest for their reasons, they all mentioned that they did it for their friend...Felix Maxwell!
The world leaders were stunned and also horrified after understanding that Felix had the backing of the top three strongest superpowers in the Empire without counting the Royal Family. Yet, they were nning on separating from him!
That foolish decision was dropped instantly as no one dared to bring the matter anymore. Some World leaders were actually scared that Felix might feel offended and take it on them.
Good for them, Felix didn''t have time to deal with such a nuisance...At least not now.
Meanwhile, the announcement hadn''t affected just the Council but also all the kingdoms in the empire and even the Royal Family!
For the kingdoms, they decided to change their approach from overly aggressive to polite when they reach the.
They understood that getting marked by the three superpowers was nothing good as they could halt trades with them and in the worst case, send their pirate crews to make trouble in their territories.
After all, since open fights and battles were deemed uneptable by SGAlliance members, every background had fleets in the shadows to do the deeds for them.
As long as they kept being unassociated with the background, those fleets could do as they please in space without bringing troubles to their background.
Naturally, they doubted whether the three superpowers would go that far for a small primitive but it was always better to y along than to y against.
Since the wasn''t their target in their first ce, they didn''t care much about changing their approach.
...
In the real world, the Mariana Capital, the inner city...In a colossus mesmerizing pce that was screaming ofvishness and ascendancy over any other building in the city, a man and a girl could be seen drinking wine together near the balcony.
Both of them appeared like otherworldly beings, having their brown skin gleam under the ray of sunlight.
Their gorgeous facial features were exactly the same, making it difficult to spot the difference between them if it wasn''t for their different body proportions.
Those two were the Royal Prince Balin and Royal Princess Alma of the Mariana Empire, the infamous Twins.
"What is your opinion on the announcement brother?" Alma asked while taking a small sip elegantly.
The man didn''t reply as he kept twirling his ss with a thoughtful expression, appearing like he was in his own world.
"Brother?"
"Oh? You said something?" Prince Balin asked softly after breaking out of his daze.
"What''s on your mind?" Princess Alma inquired in intrigue.
"The announcement." Prince Balin said, "It seems like our enemies had made a deal with that primitive."
"You think he might have given them a mythical bloodline bottle like the ones he was using?" Princess Alma pressed her glossy pink lips together and said, "Isn''t that bad to us?"
Princess Alma understood that possessing those bloodlines was going to change the status quo immensely. If they ever epted their war deration, it wouldn''t end up pretty for them.
"I doubt he would have given them anything now since it is pretty soon. Unless he is a moron." Prince Balin yawned and said, "Regardless, we can''t be left behind in the race to get those mythical bloodlines."
"Should we stop waiting for him to contact us first and just call him?" Princess Alma asked.
"No." Prince Balin said naturally, "The royal family doesn''t approach others. Especially not from a primitive like him. He will call us on his own after we leave him without a choice."
No wonder the Anti-Royalty Alliance said that the current royal family was filled with degenerate generations.
For serious matters to be held back like this due to their superiorityplex was beyond irrational and harmful to the empire.
But it seemed like neither Prince Balim nor Princess Alma cared much about it.
"Should we tell father about this?" Princess asked.
"No need to bother him with such an easy matter." Prince Balim smiledzily, "I will take care of it on my own. I am getting a bit bored anyway."
"Same!" Princess Alma said with a delightful smile, "What are you going to do."
Prince Balim looked at her l.u.s.trous apple green eyes and said with a faint smile, "You will find outter."
"Stop teasing and just tell me." Princess Alma looked at him with puppy eyes.
"Where the fun in that Lil sis?"? Prince Balim said, smirking with a hidden glint in his eyes.

The day after, at 08:00 AM...
"Phew, finally I did it." Felix wiped his sweaty forehead while sitting on his Androxa house carpet. In his hand, there was a revolving red sphere appearing like a paintball.
This was the effort of 14 hours of training continuously! A hypertension liquid sphere that needed 100% of Felix''s poisonous energy!
"Good work." The J?rmungandr praised with a faint smile.
Felix smiled in return and said while throwing the sphere in his mouth, "Should I continue?"
"Take half a daybreak, we will continue in the evening." The J?rmungandr informed.
"Alright." Felix cracked his neck and stood up.
He swiftly went for a shower and when he was done, he sat in the living room and brought out the game spinning wheel!
The two months reset had finished ages ago, and Felix was asked by the J?rmungandr personally to y those uing two games as fast as possible so he could join the UISG promotion game in half a year!
By then, he should be fully ready to participate and actually have a chance to fight the games instead of getting brutalized like most human yers on that tform.
"Hopefully it''s something simple." Felix rested his chin on his palm while pressing the green button.
As usual, the wheel span rapidly and Felix decided to leave it to stop on its own.

"Sports again?" Felix murmured, "Well, this is actually my first individual sports game in this life."

"Uhmm, almost like the game I yed in my previous life." Felix rubbed his chin while pondering on the details.
In his previous life, he participated in an Obstacle Marathon as well but it had only two zones since he yed in bronze rank.
Since this was a gold game, it was expected to be much harder and longer to make it more entertaining.
"Three zones...Huh, I guess I need to train in most of them." Felix cracked his neck and stood up. He picked up his car keys and went to the garage.
Immediately after entering his car, he murmured, "I wonder how am I going to be received in the Training Center."
Since the moment the news got spread, Felix hadn''t visited the training center or even left his house.
He was truly curious about the bloodliners reaction in the training center.
Were they going to harass him? Respect his boundaries? Or even foolishly challenge him for his room?
