Chapter 169:

Family Vacation!

Project: INFERNO


(During the competitive poker game, the family continues to interact with one another as both coach buses are now arriving at the resort and gaming convention. As curious fans noticed the entire Magachi family arriving at the convention, screaming was heard out of pure love and adoration for the family as most were meeting their own fans, Gaito especially.)

"Gaito: Ladies, ladies... There's enough G to go around for all of you!"
(As Gaito was then dragged away by the fans to sign autographs and all, his wives then had a smile on their faces instead of jealousy.)
"All of Gaito's Wives: That's our Gaito..."
"Sawano: Hinami!"
"Hinami: Yes dad?"
"Sawano: Win this for your old man."
(As Hinami and Sawano delivered a fist bump, he and Azumi then walks off to the hotel resort for their booked reservations as the rest of Gaito's wives then goes to hangout with each other, Lotus along with his wife and daughter goes to visit the nearby spa, Onara then teasingly clings to Shibuto as he was a little embarrassed.)
"Shibuto: U-Uh..! Onara?!"
"Onara: What? Isn't it okay for a girl to do something like this?"
"Shibuto: W-Well.. Yea! I mean no!- I mean!...-"
(Onara then cheek kisses him and lets his arm go.)
"Onara: Just teasing you sweetie, I'm going to enjoy the resort, have fun and win!"
"Shibuto: We will!"
(As Onara then walks off, Xinera, Kazuya, Shibuto and Hinami then goes inside the gaming convention, signs up then checks out the other gaming booths and stalls. Kazuya then goes towards a "Fantasy Impact" booth and was awestruck at the correct detail of cosplays.)
"Kazuya: IT'S AMAZING!"
"Cosplayer: Hahah! Thank you, I take it you're a Fantasy Impact player as well?"
"Kazuya: Only one of the best!"
"Cosplayer: Then tell me fair FI player, what is the difficult comp known to the game?"
(Kazuya smirks confidently and answers on the first try.)

"Kazuya: The Omni Melt' n Twirl!"
"Cosplayer: Elements?"
"Kazuya: Wind, Fire and Ice!"
"Cosplayer: Characters?"
"Kazuya: God of Wind, Oreus, Wind user Hagizawa, Fire guardian Alexandire and Ice user Hylli!"
"Both: ALL FIVE X'D CHARACTERS!"
(The cosplayer and Kazuya then shook hands in respect for one another as they both got along more. Meanwhile, Shibuto went to visit the tournament center with Xinera and Hinami as they were curious. In the middle of the massive convention was a massive power bank which is protected by a strong sea and reveals four arcade machines with P:I S.A.W on both sides.)
"Xinera: Whoa..! They really went all out here..."
"Shibuto: That they did, even that power bank is generating a lot of energy at full throttle."
"Hinami: Well even so, its a good thing, right?"
"???: Hinami??"
(As Hinami turned around, she'd notice her long time friend Cassiel with Amesso accompanying her in the convention. Hinami quickly rushes to Cassiel as they both hugged in excitement for their reunion as Amesso introduced herself to Xinera and Shibuto.)
"Amesso: Lady Xinera, Goddess of Destruction! An honor to meet you at long last."
"Xinera: Oh no no, please. The formalities are too much, I'm just Xinera today."
"Amesso: ...I see. Then excuse me, you must be young Shibuto of the Magachi family."
"Shibuto: Indeed I am! I could've sworn I've seen you somewhere before though..."
"Amesso: I believe you remember seeing me when Lucifer was resurrected."
"Shibuto: OH..! Yeah, now I remember...!"
"Cassiel: Amesso, can I please walk around with Hinami?"
(Xinera and Amesso nodded at each other as they both agreed to let them go.)

"Xinera: The tournament starts soon so promise you won't be late, Hinami."
"Hinami: Okay!"

(As Hinami and Cassiel runs off, Shibuto and Xinera was getting to know Amesso more. Meanwhile, all of Gaito's children were enjoying their time around the hotel resort right by the convention center while Gaito was signing autographs, taking photos and donates thousands of yen to everyone in line all at the same time. Daigo runs around the resort and accidentally runs into a mafia leader by mistake.)

"???: Sorry about that kiddo, you alright?"
"Daigo: No no, my apologies. I wasn't looking the way I was going-"
(Daigo then notices the mafia leader surrounded by a group of men carrying Golden Uzi's.)
"Uh... Are you a..- leader..?"
"???: Ah my men, no guns in front of the children."
"All: Sorry sir!"
"Tulliano Takamori (Golden Gate Mafia Leader): Allow me to introduce myself kiddo, I'm Tulliano Takamori, leader of the Golden Gate Mafia!"
"Daigo: WHOA! No wonder its you!! But... How did you actually cross timelines?!"
"Tulliano: I haven't the faintest idea, I was napping, woke up the next day and poof appeared here with my men. However... This resort is excruciatingly satisfying, I should get going now. Be safe now, kiddo!"
"Daigo: Bye Mr. Takamori!"
(As Daigo waved bye, he'd then run in the opposite direction, full of laughter and joy. As time passes, the tournament was beginning as Shibuto, Xinera, Hinami and Kazuya arrived just in time to participate in the tournament.)
"Announcer: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, BOYS AND GIRLS! WE WELCOME YOU TO THE PROJECT: INFERNO, SHOWDOWN AMONG WAR TOURNAMENT!!!"
(As cheering was heard in the main arena, the competition was being streamed live across every television on Earth and off planets as well where Khoteku is seen watching the game at a bar in the deep cosmos of space.)
"Bartender: Isn't that your family?"
"Khoteku: Yeaup..!!"
(Khoteku then drinks her 20th mug of beer and orders another which she was given to.)

"I wonder how this tournament's gonna go. Eh.. whatever, I'm still rooting for my fam!"
(As she then chugs down her 21st mug of beer, she then sighs in relief and cheers them on from afar without being intoxicated.)

"Announcer: Here's how the rules will go! Each competing team will battle in one round matches with 50,000 thousand HP! If one team member is eliminated, that person will be removed from the game and one of your teammates will face a two, three or four on one handicap! DO remember, once your character is chosen, you cannot change its variation and/or change a new character for doing so will result in automatic disqualification. Now, all contestants, may you please choose your characters? All DLC's are locked for fair use!"

(As the competitors chooses their characters, Kazuya chooses Full Power Khomat, Hinami chooses Teen Sawano Magachi and its Emperor Of Flames variation, Xinera chooses Lucifer and its Satan variation and Shibuto chooses his girlfriend, Onara and her Goddess of Void variation. As everyone then chooses their useable characters, the tournament bracket was set as Kazuya's team was up first against a popular gaming crew.)

"Kazuya: Lets do this guys, let's show our Magachi power!"
"All 3: Right!"
