Video Games: Starting From Resident Evil

Chapter 420 - 421: Blue Mary

The location for the appearance ceremony was a hotel near a port in Tokyo. A few days earlier, some fighters who had come from far away had already checked in.

So when Aiden and the others arrived, there were already several teams chatting in the reception hall.

These teams were the Fatal Fury Team, the New Fury Team, the Kim Team, and the South Town Special Invitation Team.

Among these teams, the one Aiden was most interested in was the South Town Special Invitation Team.

At this moment, two members of that team were coldly confronting the three members of the Fatal Fury Team.

Seeing Aiden's gaze turn in that direction, King walked over and whispered beside him, "Aiden, the one in the suit is the current boss of South Town, Geese Howard. The lackey next to him is Billy, the one who fought us in Paris last time."

"Only two, there's still one missing." Aiden said as he looked around.

But before he could finish scanning the surroundings, he felt something rubbing against his leg.

Looking down, Aiden froze for a moment, it was actually a dog.

"What a cute dog!" Chizuru also noticed it and bent down, wanting to pick it up. Unexpectedly, the dog showed its teeth at her without any courtesy, scaring her into straightening up quickly and hiding behind Aiden.

Then Chizuru muttered behind him, "This dog isn't cute at all."

Maki patted her sister's head and frowned. "Why is there a dog in a hotel…"

"It was probably brought in by someone," Aiden said, his gaze landing on a blonde beauty in the crowd who was anxiously searching for something.

"Blue Mary! I didn't expect the final member of the South Town Special Invitation Team to be her. If I remember right, Geese is her enemy."

Thinking this, Aiden bent down and picked up the small dog sitting by his leg.

And the dog that had just bared its teeth at Chizuru obediently let him hold it, even sticking out its tongue to lick the back of his hand.

"Why does it do that!" Seeing this, Chizuru was deeply hurt, causing the women beside her to snicker.

At the same time, Mary, who was full of anxiety, saw the dog being held by Aiden. Her eyes immediately lit up, and she hurried over.

"Antonio, don't run around everywhere. You made me look all over for you."

Antonio was the dog's name, though Mary usually just called it Anton, she only used its full name when she was especially angry.

Hearing its owner's voice, Antonio shrank his neck in Aiden's arms and let out a whimpering sound.

By now, Mary had run up to Aiden. Being a bit shorter than the Kagura sisters, she tilted her head up to look at him and said politely, "Sir, did you find it? Thank you so much. This dog is mine, so could you give it back to me?"

"Is that so? How do you prove it?" Even with several women staring at him, Aiden still felt the urge to tease her.

"Sir, that's easy." Mary clearly hadn't recognized who Aiden was. All her attention was on the dog, calling him "sir" every time.

"Look here, Anton, come to me." Mary called Antonio's name and clapped her hands at him.

But unfortunately, Antonio might not have wanted to get scolded. He just glanced up at her, then covered his eyes with his front paws.

Mary was stunned. She said in disbelief, "You… Antonio, what are you doing? I'm your owner!"

"Looks like you're not its owner after all, miss," Aiden said in a regretful tone.

"Nonsense, I am." Mary glared at him angrily, then rolled up her sleeves and grabbed the little dog.

The dog immediately put on a pitiful expression but didn't dare resist at all.

"See? Anton is my dog." Mary looked at Aiden smugly, then held Antonio in her arms and muttered, "Anton, don't run around. Be careful or someone might catch you and turn you into dog hotpot."

Hearing that, Aiden kindly reminded her, "That's impossible, miss. It's too skinny."

"That's true, it doesn't have much meat… uh!" Halfway through saying that, Mary reacted, this didn't seem like the time to be discussing this.

Then she looked up at Aiden again and suddenly felt he looked familiar. "You are…?"

Just as she was trying hard to recall him, a cheerful male voice interrupted her thoughts.

"Mary!"

Hearing the voice, Mary turned around, then pouted. "Terry, it's you!"

"Hey, I just heard from Geese that the third member of their team was you, so I came to find you. But why are you hanging out with these two villains?" Terry said a bit shyly.

"Because they paid," Mary replied casually, then continued looking at Aiden.

"Ah! I remember now, you're the champion of the last King of Fighters tournament, Aiden, right?"

Aiden nodded. "That's right."

At this moment, Chizuru complained to her sister Maki from behind, "Big sister, it feels like we're being ignored."

"It's not ignoring you. It's mainly because Japanese names are too hard to remember," Mary shrugged helplessly.

"…Alright then."

Mary then looked at Aiden again and said, "I've seen your matches. Even though they were just recordings, your strength is really amazing. Terry wasn't even your opponent, and you know this guy can beat Geese."

Hearing this, Aiden gave Terry a strange look and found that the sunny, handsome guy looked completely unconcerned.

"Aiden is the strongest person I've ever seen. Maybe this time's champion will be him again," Terry nodded in agreement.

"Hearing you say that makes me really look forward to fighting him." Mary's eyes lit up, and she casually nudged Aiden with her elbow.

"Hey, when the time comes, make sure you show your real skills!"

"Of course." Aiden shrugged. "I definitely won't disappoint you, provided you can run into me…"

As they were talking, a few more people entered the reception hall. Walking at the front were Iori Yagami leading the Hell Band Team, and the Tsuki-Aoi-Kasumi Team led by his younger sister.

However, before they arrived, the Japan Team led by Kyo Kusanagi had already come. Seeing Kyo, Iori Yagami immediately ditched his teammates and strode straight toward him.

"They're not going to start fighting here, are they?"

Watching Iori Yagami and Kyo Kusanagi bristle with hostility the moment they met, Chizuru asked Maki from behind Aiden.

"Hard to say…"

Maki let out a heavy sigh.
