When Bernard looked at the person he realize this person was none other than Sophia, although he was surprised by the fact they were both separated and while he appeared as a spectator she instead was a fighter, however, if that was all he wouldn't have been this surprise what made him surprise was countless numbers of people cheering for her, it was like a popular gladiator fight was going on, and she was also a famous gladiator as well.
As he looked around him Bernard couldn't tell if this crowd of people were real or not, just judging by their appearances they looked too real to be fake besides thst he saw faces he had never in his life seen before it was like a bunch of different races were mashed up together as spectators, not only were humans there were also other races such as golems, beast men, elves and so much more, what was even more amazing was that humans were the majority among these crowd, even if their sizes and shapes varies they still dominated.

As he looked at her he gulp down the saliva on his throat, before deciding to carry out his action in one fell swoop, as he raised his hand the next thing he did was pinch her between her knee and her thigh, even though this could be considered a sexual assault in reality he didn't really care considering this was a game, after he did it he realize the beast woman seemed to have no reaction and just kept cheering for Sophia, however, he wasn't convincing and did it take again, this time he could finally feel someone was staring at him, the person was none than the beast woman.
On her face was some sort of slight grin as she moan out softly, one would see from someone having noticed your action or what you were doing to them secretly yet still approve of it, while he was staring at her in confusion she suddenly turn her head and stared at him before blowing him a kiss and a wink, as Bernard saw this he tried his best to keep a poker face but then when he recall the look on her expression, Bernard couldn't help but feel uncomfortable.
This made him realize, although this crowd of races might not be real people but they had been programmed to act like one, otherwise, this muscular beast woman wouldn't have shown a special interest in him, what's worse he was sure she wanted to 'Snu snu' him right off the bat. Just from this alone, he could tell the game was made to be realistic to its very core, not only were their presence made to look real even their actions, prompting him to think if they had all these traits can they be killed? and would blood come out?
This one thing he wouldn't mind doing free of charge, but then after what he had witnessed several moments ago, he definitely wouldn't try that, especially if these crowds were given a special advantage in the game, the worse that could happen was being surrounded by over a hundred thousand crowds and being beaten to his death in the game, after shaking off these thoughts in his head Bernard sat comfortably awaiting Sophia match, and who she would be fighting, if it would be an NPC of the game or a real symbiote user from the academy.
Meanwhile, while Sophia was standing on the gladiator stage since she was now a gladiator, she was searching for a match, and after a while, she finally found someone, after seeing the rank of the person she decided to reduce her rank from 5 to rank 3, so this way her opponent and her would be a perfect match up of just rank 3, otherwise it would be an overkill to fight a rank 3 as a rank 5 symbiote fighter, even though in reality she wouldn't care if the person was weak or strong, but in the game it was different she was always seeking experience and to hone her skills so she wouldn't mind the opponent.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlthough there were several options one could choose from if they wanted to fight a random match and be paired with just anyone, which was the random match selection option in the game, however, this option had both its pros and cons, the pros were that you could get to fight just anyone even a rank 7 or just a rank 1, while for the for cons a rank 1 could be pair with a rank 7, at that point no matter how one was anticipating the fight or experienced and skilled the rank 1 was, the person would be killed even before the matching fully began, it was that simple.
This was why most people choose the option whereby you have control over the opponent you face, than the random selection option which was mostly used for fun. After successfully picking her opponent, it was time to finally decide which symbiote bloodline she would choose, as she displayed the endless list of symbiote bloodlines and their abilities before her, she couldn't help but think about Bernard and wondered what type of symbiote bloodline his bloodline would be related to although she was sure he was the illegitimate child of two aboriginals she still hadn't been able to figure out who exactly were his parents.
Besides that, just from the way he could last against the base form of that invisible second year she guess his symbiote bloodline was likely a combination of two, although she could tell one of them was an enhancement type she couldn't make a decision for the other one, so after thinking about it for a while she decided rather than just picking any random symbiote bloodline, she would instead pick one from the enhancement class.
After a while, of looking she finally found one, which was a cheetah base symbiote bloodline the reason why she choose this was quite simple she wanted to strengthen and improve the way she fought when using speed type ability, she could still remember how the second year toyed with her, if only she was fast enough she would have gotten to him faster before he would have gotten the time to activate his symbiote second gear.
Not only that, but she also wanted to inspire Bernard about speed base symbiote bloodline, since she noticed he mostly replied on speed and not power, even if you were faster than your opponent and you couldn't hit them, it was just as good as doing nothing because if your opponent could understand this pattern, then once they got the chance they only needed one hit to claim victory, so it could be said she was doing it for both herself and Bernard.
