Chapter 619

    "Seriously," yer Two agreed, his voice deep. "It''s clear she knows each of us inside and out."


    "Especially me," yer Three added, massaging his wrist with a frown. "She even knew about my hand injury and where my weaknesses were. She pinpointed our team''s problems in just a few sentences."


    "Who is that girl? The way she was so calm... it honestly gave me the creeps," yer Four remarked with an incredulous chuckle.


    Mysticat, the captain, sat on the sofa, Juniper''s image and hermanding tone reying in his mind.


    "Don''t you guys think..." MystiCat began, slowly looking up, his voice low and raspy.


    "Think what?" The other four turned to him in unison.


    "Don''t you think her way of talking is a bit like Demon''s?" MystiCat''s eyes were deadly serious, devoid of any hint of a joke. "Especially the way she chewed us out. It was exactly like him."


    "What are you trying to say?" At the mention of Demon, the yful mood vanished, and everyone grew serious. "Are you suggesting that little girl is Demon?"


    After a moment of silence, they burst outughing. “Seriously, are you kidding me? We may have never seen Demon''s face, but we''ve heard him speak. Our leader is a guy."


    Besides, the girl was just a teenager. How could she possibly be connected to Demon? It was too absurd.


    "Maybe the pressure''s just getting to me and I''m overthinking things," MystiCat muttered, knowing how ridiculous his idea sounded. “How could a teenage girl be Demon?"


    "Don''t lose focus. Just keep this rhythm. We''re not going to lose," his teammates reassured him.


    Soon, the fourth game began. This was a critical round for both teams. If Shadow Titans won, they would take the match and advance to the top three. If Neverfall Navigators won, they would tie the series setting up a final, décisive game f?r a spot in the finals. .


    From the moment the game started, the tension in the arena was palpable. The fans held their breath, consciously staying quiet to avoid distracting the yers.


    They inhaled sharply when Shadow Titans pushed to their base and let out a collective sigh of relief when Neverfall Navigators sessfully repelled the attack.


    The arena was filled with the sound of held breaths and quiet gasps. The audience felt like they were getting a better cardio workout than a three-kilometer run.


    Twenty minutes in, the match reached a pivotal moment.


    MystiCat, who had been ying cautiously and farming in the bushes, suddenly shed behind the enemy''s yer Two. He unleashed all three of his abilities, locking the opponent down. Their health bar emptied in an instant. The other teammates seized the moment coordinating their attack. The entire enemy team was wiped out.


    The five members of Neverfall Navigators raced towards the enemy base. With a full-on assault, they brought the main tower''s health to zero.


    Fourth game: Neverfall Navigators wins.


    The series was now tied, heading into a final, winner-take-all match. The entire arena fell silent, the fans hardly daring to breathe. The two teams were locked in a frantic, back-and-forth battle.


    Just as Mysticat found himself in a disadvantageous position, his peripheral vision caught a glimpse of someone in the crowd below, it was the girl who reminded him so much of their old boss. The words she had used to scold him echoed in is mind, and it was as Demon himself was standing right there.


    Mysticat closed his eyes for a second. When he opened them again, his entire demeanor had changed.
