"Y-You cannot enter. Only the winners are allowed to go in and claim their earnings."
A man wearing a suit spoke in a weak voice. He was overwhelmed, the higher-ups had sent him to this place where he could even die, honestly, from the looks of it, death seemed like an easy way out here, with how everything was unfolding, he might be trampled and beaten till he begs for death himself.
"Earnings!? Earnings you said!? You bastard! Are you sure you have two lives!? Because I am about to end one!!"
One of the men standing in front of the betting office screamed in anger,
"Two lives!? That is far from enough!" Another man jumped in.
"Exactly! He dares say only winners can enter!? Winners!? Are there any Winners!? This was clearly a scam! A Scam that the Arena and the Fortune's Call pulled together! Where in the hell did they find that monster!? Defeating 20,000 Sovereigns at the same time!? Does that make any sense!?"
"Exactly! It was a Scam! I need my Credits back!"
"Yes! Give us our Credits back! Or don't even think about doing business here ever again!!"
"Give our Credits back!"
"Give it back!"
"We need a refund!! Else the Arena won't remain standing anymore!!!"
"P-Please listen to me."
The man standing in front of the office, who was given the duty to stop all these people panicked even more.
"Y-You know I do not have the power to do anything here, I-I am only d-doing what I am pai-"
"You think we care!?
If you don't have the power then call the one who has!!"
"Yes! Call the one who has!
Call that Goblin Head who took our Credits!"
People continued to shout. More than a thousand Mercenaries had gathered outside, it was so cramped even breathing was difficult, but the Mercenaries didn't care, they were fueled with anger.
After all, some of them had gambled all their life savings on this bet.
*ROOOOOM%
However, the commotion couldn't last for long as suddenly, a horrifying pressure descended, instantly pushing all the Mercenaries on their knees. Some of the weaker ones even passed out.
The mercenaries looked up and the moment their eyes fell on a man with a bull-like face, black body, and a large build descending from the air, looking down at them with his cold red eyes, they froze in fear.
Lord Morathis.
One of the Strongest beings in the entirety of Nexus.
The being behind Arena, the reason why Arena was the only battle stage in all Nexus, a being who is known to crush every single person who dares to go against him, and... A Transcendent.
Obviously, with the pressure from a Transcendent, mercenaries, where the majority of them were merely Sovereigns, while some were a level below, not many could survive and this was when Morathis was holding back.
The Mercenaries trembled!
This was the worst day of their lives.
Not only did they lose most of their credits, but they were also on the verge of losing their lives.
Did they not think that Morathis would appear if they caused a commotion? They did not.
This man had not appeared in public for around a thousand years, like most Transcendent level expects, he leaves most of these matters on his subordinates, the mercenaries were expecting the subordinates to come and give some sort of compensation.
It was their bad luck that they... encountered him.
"What is the fuss here for?"
Morathis spoke, his voice heavy, combined with his 5-meter-wide build, it was so intimidating that one by one, the mercenaries were losing their consciousness and seeing that, some even acted like they were unconscious.
Morathis, however, ignored that all and continued,
"Are the rules not clear?
Only the winners enter the office to claim their earnings.
Did any one of you win? If not, then why are you here? Do you have any questions you need answers for?"
voice.
Well, at least that is how it should be.
"The winners can enter, right?
So please don't block the way."
A voice was heard.
The mercenaries almost pissed in fear, in a place where not even a soul dared to make even the smallest of noise, someone had spoken. This was indeed their last day, they all soon would be entering the land of the dead.
Morathis's eyes fell on the direction the voice came from, there, he saw a man and a woman walking towards him.
It was a man he knew very well.
The man, however, seemed to have no idea who he was and treated him just like he would treat any other random person.
"Tsk, why is it so crowded here?"
The man snorted. In front of him, more than a thousand beings were on their knees, blocking his way.
Then, he waved his hand and suddenly, the bodies in front of him moved aside, making
a way for him.
"Ughhhh..."
There were a few grunts, the space was already cramped up, with Nux making a way
for him and his wife, it became even more difficult for the people here, of course, Nux was never the one to care for the side characters who wouldn't appear after this.
Morathis, who saw this narrowed his eyes.
After all, the pressure he was releasing had pushed these people onto the floor, so this man was using his power to not only push these beings away but also to resist the
pressure he, a Transcendent was releasing.
Resisting the pressure of a Transcendent.
Was that something a Sovereign could do?
'Maybe a monster like him can...'
Morathis thought inwardly as he stared at Nux Leander and his wife casually walking towards him. It was as if the pressure he was releasing didn't affect them one bit.
"Nux Leander."
Morathis called out when Nux was close to him, obviously, even Nux wasn't powerful
enough to push away a Transcendent using [Absolute Kinesis] nor was he foolish enough to antagoniza thie moneter for no resen
Nux could tell, this monster was one of the few 'eyes' who were watching him from
afar when he defeated the mercenaries.
This man was strong.
