Chapter 122
The winner of the bet was in the end no one . The final tally of both Alex and Emily's kills were the same in the end . All of this happened because of Niel Rayheart, though you can call it a lucky shot Niel was able to kill one guy which ended the match and pretty much surprised everyone . Well everyone except Emily who smiled at what happened . Even Alex noticed the irregularity that happened .
Yet before he could question Emily about it, their group was called to go up on the stage and take their trophy . The host handed the trophy and plaque, which Emily gladly received . They were also handed the prize money, which Alex passed to Kim Suho .
Emily then passed the trophy and the plaque to Alex, and once again took the mic from the host, who at this point already expected Emily to do this . When Emily took the mic she made a grandiose bow with some graceful movement using her hands . After bowing she looked up to the audience with a bright fearless smile .
"My lovely adorable peons! Have you seen my beautiful, elegant, perfect fighting form? I hope you burn that scene into your minds . Since what you have witnessed is a supreme honor and privilege . Tell the story to your children and grandchildren, that you have witnessed that ultimate fighting form . That you have witnessed the victorious Bloody Princess Evangeline! Let the eternal night embrace you all!"
The crowd who heard Emily's speech responded with a thunderous applause . Some of them started screaming different things .
"Princess Eva please have my children!"
"Who dares taint our princess!? Kill him!"
"May the eternal night fall upon us and embrace us all!"
"I don't understand what this Bloody Princess thing is, but you're cute and cool that's all I need . "
"QUEEN! I pledge my eternal loyalty to you!"
Alex who heard every word the crowd was shouting, still couldn't understand why they were so worked up . Was Emily's cosplaying really that good? He just couldn't understand it . Emily is indeed wearing some weird outfit that looks cute but it could delay her movements when in battle .
'Still Emily is a maid in our house and is always wearing that maid uniform, so I guess this outfit of hers isn't really that much of a hinderance . That's not the point why are they like this? Does her clothes being like that truly excite them? Or is because of her acting?'
While Alex was thinking as to why Emily was gaining such a reaction from the audience, Emily started to sing the theme song of the anime .
"Will you make a contract with me?" Once Emily said those lines the bgm of the blood princess theme song suddenly played . In which Emily's voice floated throughout the arena .
"Blood and darkness cover my soul
as I drown in death and sorrow .
Will you come o dear heart of mine
in this eternal night will you shine"
Every word that came out of Emily's mouth was sung with such passion that the audience thought that her version of the song was better than the original . Emily sang while dancing which excited the audience even more .
After singing the theme song of the anime Emily raised her hand and bowed . This was met with another round of applause . Rachel and the others who heard Emily sing were truly surprised . She was practically an idol at this point .
"Not only is she a hacker, able to cook and sew, her acting is superb, even her singing and dancing is incredible . " Sayaka was getting excited the more things she found out about Emily .
Kei on the other hand felt even more dejected . 'What's with these superhuman people! Aren't we suppose to be high schoolers?'
"To all my fans here today, thank you for enjoying the show!" Emily's tone of voice changed . She was now using her normal speaking voice . The sudden change of character stunned the audience making them look at Emily dumbfounded .
What happened to their bloody princess? Her change in tone was accompanied with a change of atmosphere which resulted in the crowds confused state .
"Thank you for enjoying my act as the bloody princess Evangeline Cromwell . If you want to see more of me cosplaying and acting as your favorite anime characters check out my website . It's kawaiiememcosplaying . com, I'll be waiting for you guys! I Emi will be waiting for you guys!"
Once she was done advertising her website Emily handed the mic back to the host . The audience who heard what Emily said was stunned at first, but the others immediately wrote down the name of her website .
"Emi you're the cutest girl of them all!"
"How about becoming an Idol Emi-chan?! I'm sure with all of us supporting you, we can aim for the number one idol!"
"Will you cosplay as Magical girl Rin-Rin next?"
While the audience was still in an uproar, Rachel and everyone from the Gaming and Mercenary club in the audience seats headed out before it gets harder to leave .
. . .
After she was done consoling the host, Emily headed towards Alex and his group . Seeing that Emily was finally with them, the group decided to head out of the arena to meet up with the others .
"You guys go out first, I have something to discuss with Emily . " Niel nodded in acknowledgment of what Alex said and left the arena with Kim Suho and Blair .
"Oh my Alex, are you going to confess? Did my act awaken something in you?" Emily smiled teasingly at Alex .
"Emily, you did that on purpose . Why?" Alex didn't mind Emily's teasing and simply asked the question he wanted to ask since awhile ago .
"I don't understand the question Alex, you need to be more specific than that . "
"The last shot that Niel did, the one that decided our bet was a tie . You could have killed that guy first . You were positioned near enough in that angle and with your skill that was suppose to be an easy kill . Why did you let Niel take the shot? Why did you lose on purpose?"
"First off I couldn't hit the guy since I didn't spot him quickly enough . Also I didn't lose on purpose, why would I do that? I really wanted to see Alex and Lilitth ojou-chan cosplay . " Emily shrugged her shoulders while shaking her head with a sigh of disappointment .
"So what happens to the bet now?" Alex asked Emily for confirmation . In which Emily responded with a cunning light shining in her eyes .
"It depends on you Alex do you want us to both be losers or do you want us to both be winners?"
