The Villain's Story

Chapter 468 [468] Second Fight.

Chapter 468 [468] Second Fight.

As expected, the result of the previous fight between Alexander and Kazikato had left the Colosseum in ruins, the stage was destroyed beyond repair, it had to be excavated and constructed anew, and because of this, the beginning of the second fight took some time. Although some people were disturbed by the delay, they were far outnumbered by the people who were incredibly happy after they watched the previous one.

They had the thought:

'If they show another match like that... Who cares if it takes a while?'

lightsn?v?l The audience was, in short, fired up!

Everyone was excited! Whether it be the common man or the fiercest warrior! Who wouldn't be?!

Thus, most were patient whilst repairs went on. Although the option of shifting to another stadium was still available, no stadium could compare to the main one in terms of space and faculties, so the authorities just opted to wait until the repairs were done. This time, the material used was much sturdier.

They had seen the monsters that were the students...they would not risk more!

The second match, was between Lucas Hiddlestone and the second ranker of Eden, Abraham Firk. A student who used metal and Earth, just like Lucas. The fight had already sparked a lot of debates on online forums, However, all these debates had something in common.

It was expectation! Nearly all of them expected the fight to be on the same intensity as the first one, thus, the speculations ran wild. Some of them had eve thought that entire giants of metal or Earth, more commonly known as Golems, would be fighting one another... But that was all just speculation. Whether the fighters, Lucas and Abraham, have such skills or not, they didn't know.

But hey, they could dream, right?

However, there was also another popular discussion online.

"Who won?"

Who truly won between the fight of Alexander and Kazikato? It was so popular that netizens had forgotten that Alan was still inside the tower, the posts about that died soon after, however.

Some said Kazikato, some said Alexander, although the majority sided with the former after further inspection.

Thinking about it. Kazikato could still move, albeit only a little, whilst Alexander was completely immobile and knocked out. Although both had suffered great injuries, the netizens sided with Kazikato, winning.

Some die hard fans still resisted though, and this had also sparked another discussion about how the finals would go on, but that's for another time.

Right now, the focus was on Lucas against Abraham. A lot of research had been done on them, but mostly only found out that they belonged to reputable families, and nothing else. Only their respective ranks in school.

Lucas was ranked fourth amongst the first years in Shield, Whilst Abraham was ranked second amongst the first years in Eden. Judging from their respective rankings... Abraham should win, right?

Well, when George Drakmor, the rank number one in Eden had lost miserably to Sabrina Wellington, who was one rank below Lucas... Most thought Eden was weak.

Very, very weak compared to the monsters of shield. The previous fight had also cemented this notion.

Thus, more people bet on Lucas than on Abraham, and by a fair margin. Of course, there were still some that hoped another underdog is incredibly strong and defies expectations! They wanted to make a quick buck.

Whilst the forums online were blazing for the past few days, the stadium had been reconstructed anew, and now it was stronger than before, courtesy of the artisans. 

After it had been fixed, the match was to be held quickly. The people gathered in masses and hurriedly paid for the seats, Surprisingly, Lucas's Father, who was known to be training in solitude, had also attended this match.

Lucas, who was currently in the arena, looked up towards the Hiddlestone area, although he was unable to see through the one-way glass no matter how hard he tried, he could feel his father's sinister aura clearly. He was very familiar with it.

"..."

He was silent, however, staring at his opponent calmly.

[Lucas Hiddlestone, are you sure you want to fight like this?]

Asked the host, looking at Lucas with a wry smile. Currently, Lucas was in casual clothing, not even having bothered to take the time to wear his armor or items. Did he disregard his opponent too much, or was he simply not interested in winning? Maybe he was arrogant, overconfident. Such led to the downfall of many.

"Yeah."

He answered, not even showing the minimum amount of respect to the host with his tone or demeanor.

Abraham, on the other hand, had gotten annoyed. But calmed himself, thinking that maybe this was a tactic of Lucas to make him drop his guard.

"It'll certainly be troublesome if I get caught in it!"

He thought to himself, almost prideful, that he was not taunted.

[If you say so...]

Even the audience was appalled by such arrogance, some worried their money was gone, while the others rejoiced.

"I'll make you regret it."

Said Abraham from afar, eyeing Lucas, who yawned in response.

Lucas, although he may not look like it, was actually angry. However, the reason for this was something else. Not related to this match with Abraham at all.

[Are both participants ready?]

Asked the host, and they answered.

"Yes."

"Yep."

Lucas, didn't even bother wearing proper shoes for this as well, he was currently wearing chanclas. People wondered how he would move well in them.

[Start!]

The fight had started, and Abraham began to think how he could take down Lucas in the fastest way possible. Defeating the son of the famed patriarch of the hiddlestone family was sure to bring him fame! Should he overpower him? Defeat him in such a way that he is humiliated?

This, however, was only a thought. The next moment, his head was buried deep in the ground, breaking apart the reinforced material like it was glass.

The next moment, the host announced Lucas's victory.
