"I will be back soon." She spoke. "You won't have to, it is not like you are going to win." At those words, Riona just chuckled as she left the room. 'What a strange woman.' The Office Head thought inwardly. Then, his focus shifted to the battle that could be seen from the window of his office. Indeed, he had the elite view of the battle, one of the perks of working at Arena. "YEAAHHHHHHH!!! NATHAN!!! KILL HIM!!" "NO! Don't kill him! Just tire him out! I need to win some money!"
"Shut the hell up!" "You!!" The instant Nathan stepped in, the crowd was excited, it was a much grander welcome than what Nux received. Nux could sense not even a single being was on his side and everyone seemed to know who this Nathan dude was. 'I guess he is a big shot.' Nux thought inwardly as he stared at the being in front of him and with just one look, he could tell, he was definitely different from other scrubs he had faced here before. He was strong. Nux narrowed his eyes, preparing himself for the battle. Nathan on the other hand, seemed laid back. He was confident in his skills. Seeing that the two fighters were ready, the announcer flew in the air, her voice was heard throughout the arena and, "So the first battle of today's grand event starts in, Three! Two!
One! Fight!!!" The moment she said those words, Nathan prepared himself, one of his abilities allowed him to step out of the physical plane, making him much lighter than normal and almost tripling his speed, making him pretty much invisible to any Sovereign since he was already quite fast for a Sovereign and with his boosted speed, he was no different than a ghost. The battle plan was simple, he would step out of the physical plane, with his increased speed, he would get to Nux, then using his claws that are laced with lethal poison, he would attack Nux and the battle would end. Yes, that is just it. There was no need to plan any further. In a one-on-one battle against an enemy who most probably had no clue about him and his abilities, it was a sure-shot plan, heck, even if the enemy knew about him, there was nothing he could do. He couldn't react to his speed, neither could he resist the poison.
It was a strategy that he had used almost his entire life, a sure shot kill, a reliable combo that never fails. However, Today, it was different. Just before Nathan could use his ability, Nux appeared in front of him and, "No hard feelings." "Wh-" Before Nathan could react, he felt something grabbing his face, in an instant, his world flipped over, his head crashed on the ground, the impact was so large that his skull cracked, he wanted to cough blood but with his mouth covered with Nux's palm, he could only chock in his own blood, unable to take the impact, his brain sent signals throughout his body and… He lost his consciousness. The battle was over. Nux stood up, then glanced at the Arena floor with an impressed look on his friend, "It didn't break. The material they used is quite good." "…" "…" "…" Dead silence fell all over Arena. Let alone the crowd, even the announcer stared at the sight with absolute disbelief and Nux, who noticed the silence, turned towards the announcer and, "Do I have to kill him to be declared as the winner? I am not sure, but according to the rules, if one is unable to fight, the battle is over, no? There is no need to kill unnecessarily." "R-Right! You are right!
