Chapter 1723  How funny~

  "It will take too long like this, Send all of them at the same time." Nux spoke as he glanced at the announcer with a lazy look on his face. "W-What…?" The announcer stuttered. Nux didn't shout, but because of how the entire Arena was shrouded in silence, every single person heard his arrogant words. Their gazes became dangerous, all of them staring at him as if warning him not to repeat what he said. Of course, Nux didn't care. "It is too boring, Let them all come at the same time, that might make things a little more interesting." "I-I don't think I-I am a-allowed to do t-that." Obviously, the announcer was confused. She looked around, trying to find a superior, not knowing how to react to such a strange request. If it was a normal situation, she would have just treated Nux as some arrogant fool and used his words to rile up the crowd and make the show more exciting. But… What she just saw in the past few minutes was… The announcer was currently looking at the eleventh mercenary who was being taken away by the Healers. He was one of the most well-known mercenaries throughout Nexus; he not only had an excellent track record, he had also won quite a few battles in the Arena, a well-known figure, but… just like the rest, he lost the moment the battle started. He couldn't even resist. Nux was a monster who continuously defeated strong mercenaries one after another, crushing people's hopes under his feet, and he did all that in such a dominating manner that no one could even call him out. The announcer had no clue how to answer this man. "How arrogant! You think the world revolves around you just because you won a few fights!?" However, unlike her, the people in the crowd weren't so calm, especially the ones who had lost their hard-earned money because they bet on his defeat. One of the people who was unable to control his anger lashed out at Nux, and the moment he did, the rest followed. "Exactly! Bring all of them at the same time!? Who do you think you are!?" "He must be using some sort of trickery! I bet it is all planned out! A farce to make us lose our money!" "That's right! This must be something Fortune's Call came up with! This is the reason I don't do business with them anymore!" "I am rethinking my past decisions as well! I guess I should really look into other Mercenary Halls!" As the crowd lashed out, their target shifted from Nux to Fortune's Call. Simba, who was watching all this, had a grave look on his face. He realized he had underestimated Nux's strength, but right now, more than that, he was worried about his reputation. However, before he could say anything, "Heh." Suddenly, someone laughed. A beautiful voice resounded throughout the Arena, and as if a spell was cast, the entire Arena turned silent, their attention turning towards the source of this voice. Then, their eyes fell on a certain black-haired woman with features so beautiful that almost all men could feel their hearts beating loudly. The woman, who was sitting amongst the crowd, continued to chuckle. "How funny." She commented, her voice so beautiful that men present felt a strange force attracting them towards her. Especially the men who were sitting close to her. Some bold ones even tried to make a move, or at least they tried to; however, the moment that thought appeared in their head, it disappeared. They could feel it—a strange intimidation that told them not to do anything foolish. The woman then glanced at the crowd and, "Look at who is talking, People who weren't even bold enough to participate in the event. If all of you are so sure, why don't you join in? If you are so sure that all of this is just an act, enter the stage and fight. If you win, you get 10,000 Nexus Credit Points, but… If you lose, you will lose 1,000 Nexus Credits, after all, you did just try to defame my husband and Fortune's Call." The woman's smile then widened and, "I am sure brave men like you have the balls to back up your claims, no?" The instant she said those words, the crowd went silent. No one dared to step forward. Barely any of them were at the level of the mercenaries who were just defeated; if people who were stronger than them couldn't do anything, what could they do? They only lashed out because they lost money; none of them had the guts to actually go down and face that monster. And Riona, who could see that, laughed. "I thought so." Her laughter echoed through the Arena. The men were ashamed. They wanted to say many things, but they just couldn't. Even the people who didn't say anything felt ashamed; after all, even they didn't have the guts to go down and face Nux. "Now, now, my wife." Suddenly, another voice was heard. The crowd turned towards Nux and saw him smiling. "You shouldn't bully people like this. It is not their fault. I mean, You need to find different ways to feel important when you know you are below average, no?" Nux then laughed. "I heard one of them said that he was going to leave Fortune's Call and do business somewhere else? How funny~ As if we need someone who doesn't even have the balls to participate in a mission that requires him to defeat a single Sovereign who should be tired after so many different Sovereigns. It is honestly entertaining to see people like him." Nux spoke, looking directly at the man who said those words with a smile full of disdain and mockery. He purposely used words that made him look like he was a part of Fortune's Call, not because he wanted their support or something else, but simply because of how Fortune's Call and its workers acted all this while. Sure, they might have poked their noses where they didn't belong by constantly coming up with different ways to try and stop Nux from taking this mission, but in the end, they were only trying to help and guide the 'ignorant man' who had come to them. After all, no sane person would believe that a man they just met had what it took to complete a mission that even the Supreme World failed to complete. In the end, they were only trying to save his life, and it was something Nux appreciated, so he decided not to let this ruin their image. The man Nux called out trembled in anger, but there was nothing he could do. Once he was done dealing with him, Nux glanced at the announcer again. "What are you waiting for? Call all of them together; I don't have all day."
