Mystery: I Married the Queen of Mystery

Audis's lips curved into a slight smile as he saw Bishop.

Bishop didn't come in alone; he had an extraordinary bodyguard with him, but at this moment, he asked the bodyguard to stay a little further away, because he was about to give a speech and performance, and he couldn't let the audience be distracted by the bodyguard's presence.

Bishop opened his arms to Audis and said, "Young man, you've done very well, offering the audience a wonderful performance."

Then he faced the audience: "Just today, the arena has welcomed another excellent contestant!

"Although his combat experience is still somewhat lacking, the weapons he designs are imaginative enough, and he will definitely bring you more exciting matches in the future!"

The nobles who liked to come to the arena to watch the matches immediately applauded. They also saw the potential of "Lelouch" and knew that under Bishop's guidance, he would definitely become an excellent contestant!

"Come here, young man," Bishop beckoned to Audis, "Kneel before me, and I will preside over your ceremony to join the 3N Party."

As Audis walked towards him, Bishop lectured, "The N in the 3N Party stands for the first letter of 'Nobility.' The meaning of this organization's name is 'Three leaders loyal to the nobility.'

"Some say that having a strong physique and extraordinary abilities is enough to become a big shot in Backlund.

"But they only got it half right. They also need our approval to become big shots in Backlund!

"Times are changing, but our bloodline, honor, and status are unshakeable!"

Many audience members applauded enthusiastically. Among the nobles, there were many supporters of the "bloodline theory."

But many newly promoted nobles, or nobles with more open-minded ideas, had no interest in such theories and didn't even bother to raise their hands.

Audis was already more than ten meters away from Bishop. To paralyze the arena's manager and his bodyguard, he placed his large backpack on the grass and took off the sword from his waist.

After seeing Audis's actions, the bodyguard in the distance continued to pace leisurely in the distance, seemingly relaxed. Although he was still paying attention to Audis, he was no longer focusing all his energy on him as before.

At this moment, Audrey in the audience was very conflicted: Will he kneel? Is he really going to kneel to Bishop?

It's better to kneel! Audrey thought. Bishop's speech had already portrayed himself as a superior figure. If Lelouch didn't kneel, it would be difficult for Bishop to save face, and he might become angry and order the bodyguard to attack Lelouch!

"Nobles are nobles from birth!" Bishop's speech continued: "They should enjoy everything in this world!

"Humble people, if you want to live a decent life, you must surround us, listen carefully, and meet our needs!"

Then he looked at Audis in front of him: "Young man, you must remember this.

"The nobility created prosperous Backlund, giving you a good living environment…"

Audis suddenly interrupted him: "To be honest, what you just said makes people feel disgusted!"

As he spoke, he skillfully took out an "Extraordinary Incendiary Grenade" from his pocket and threw it at Bishop's feet.

Whoosh~

A violent flame instantly rose from the ground beneath Bishop's feet, engulfing the noble who had just been giving a passionate speech.

All of this happened too quickly. It wasn't until Audis jumped back suddenly that Bishop let out a shrill scream and fell to the ground, rolling around, trying to extinguish the flames on his body.

The bodyguard immediately raised his hand towards Audis, wanting to subdue him, but saw that the shoes on Audis's feet were emitting colorful light, allowing him to leave with amazing speed, actually escaping the range of his extraordinary ability.

The bodyguard had been paying attention to Audis all along, but before he suddenly launched his attack, he didn't show anything suspicious.

And at the moment Audis threw the "Extraordinary Incendiary Grenade," the bodyguard who was pacing was walking directly behind Bishop, which made him unable to react at all!

Immediately afterward, the bodyguard discovered a serious problem: his ability couldn't put out the fire!

At this time, Bishop was already on his last breath, and he couldn't even scream anymore, but the fire was still burning fiercely, and soon the fire burned through Bishop's belly, and the noble Bishop died like this.

The bodyguard hurried to chase Audis. If he could catch the murderer, he might be able to avoid being punished.

The nobles in the audience only reacted at this time, and they let out continuous screams.

Everything just now happened too quickly. At first, some people thought it was a performance.

Boom~

Immediately afterward, a violent explosion came from the arena. Audis used a javelin with a certain armor-piercing ability to blast a huge hole in the wall.

He paused slightly at the exit and shouted to the people in the audience: "I don't hate nobles, but I hate this kind of self-righteous noble who insists on dividing people into classes!

"This manager's crimes will appear in the Backlund Police Department's mailbox tonight, as well as the mailboxes of major newspapers. It's time for this demon and his lackeys to receive their due punishment!"

He originally had more to say, but the bodyguard had already chased over, so Audis immediately left through the hole in the wall and casually dropped an incendiary grenade at the hole to stop the bodyguard from chasing.

The reason why Audis dared to do this tonight was first because the barrier in the audience protected the audience and also prevented the extraordinary people there from helping Bishop.

Unless it was a demigod, they could instantly break through that barrier.

And the demigods among the nobles were currently very busy. No one had the time or interest to watch this kind of "low-sequence" match, so he only needed to deal with Bishop's bodyguard.

And Bishop was just the son of a viscount, and his bodyguard was just an "Interrogator."

Audis deduced from some of the information he had that, based on Bishop's character and habits, he would most likely use "Lelouch," who had won two consecutive matches, to make a fuss, showing the noble audience the wonderful matches of the arena's future and taking the opportunity to promote his "nobility first" ideology.

If he killed someone with a knife or gun, he might be stopped by that "Interrogator." After all, the actions of drawing a knife and drawing a gun could easily alert people.

But if he used an "Extraordinary Incendiary Grenade," the other party had never seen this thing before, so the success rate would be higher, and the "Interrogator" didn't have the relevant ability to extinguish the fire.

In addition, Audis's backpack had a magic array to reduce weight, and the shoes on his feet could also increase his movement speed.

The "Interrogator" didn't have the ability to increase running speed, so Audis only needed to pay attention to the other bodyguards in the arena and not be surrounded at the beginning.

There were also other extraordinary people in the arena, even one or two Sequence 6s.

However, they were sent by the arena's behind-the-scenes boss and didn't have the responsibility to protect Bishop. Moreover, they generally didn't appear on the field, but were in the guards' command room, directing from the center, making it difficult to grasp Audis's movements for a while.

Just like dealing with that "Psychic," Audis made very thorough preparations in order to achieve his goals.

As Audis's laughter echoed outside the arena, he threw the incendiary grenade into the arena's windows, and fire snakes immediately raged inside the arena.

The nobles screamed one after another, leaving the audience under the cover of their bodyguards.

No mistake, one song, one hair, one inside, one capacity, one look!

Audrey was very calm because she observed that although the location where Lelouch set the fire ignited the competition venue, he didn't set the fire at the exit of the audience.

That is to say, Lelouch gave the audience time and space to escape.

That manager seemed to have done many bad things, but because he was a noble, he and his subordinates didn't receive their due punishment.

So Lelouch took action. He must have had a meticulous plan, approaching the manager little by little, and then, when the time was right, letting him receive his due punishment!

At this time, Audrey, who was at the tail of the noble's team, heard Lelouch's voice again: "Nobles, it's time to pay the price for your disregard for life.

"You can be high and mighty, but you can't be without humanity!

"I'll help you destroy this arena. From now on, the arena's manager has become a high-risk profession!"

Boom~ Boom~

Explosions rang out continuously, and the entire 155 King's Avenue was filled with flames.

Audrey vaguely worried about Lelouch. He should leave here immediately, otherwise he would be stopped and arrested by the guards and the extraordinary people hired by the arena.

Moreover, setting fire to King's Avenue so close to the Soderak Palace, official extraordinary people would likely rush over to investigate quickly.

But after going downstairs and coming out of the arena, Audrey immediately stopped worrying, because the noble audience was already in chaos!

Not every noble who came to watch the match was an extraordinary person, or had an extraordinary bodyguard. Most of them were ordinary people.

The surrounding fire and the occasional explosions reminded them of the tragic deaths of Alva and Bishop, and they couldn't help but urge the coachman to leave here quickly.

However, the explosions and fire frightened the horses, and the scene was in chaos, with car accidents and rollovers often occurring.

Some of the guards and extraordinary people in the arena, under the personal instruction of the former manager Bishop, first thought of helping these injured nobles, which gave Lelouch the opportunity to set fires everywhere.

Audrey calmly observed the surroundings and then called a few friends to quickly come to the grass.

It was unwise to run away in this chaos, and at the moment, the fire hadn't spread to the open grass, so they could temporarily hide here.

Audrey's friends watched as the entire arena descended into chaos. Many were trampled and injured by the horses, and some were even pushed into the raging fire, their clothes catching alight. The arena had completely lost all order.

The few of them were fortunate enough to temporarily find refuge on the grass. Just then, Audrey's spirituality stirred. Using the firelight, she saw Lelouch rapidly running towards them.

Audrey noticed that Lelouch's backpack and pouches were almost empty, suggesting he had used all his weapons effectively.

In the firelight, she saw that the mask on Lelouch's face seemed even more mysterious, and his slender frame seemed to contain boundless power!

However, the colors of his multicolored shoes seemed to have dimmed considerably.

Lelouch stopped on the grass, glanced at Audrey and the other nobles, and suddenly smiled slightly: "Remember, I am Lelouch the Rebel!"

As he spoke, his ill-fitting coat suddenly emitted an illusory light, and "Lelouch" also became illusory.

The next second, he vanished from before Audrey and the others!
