Chapter 234: Leo Vs Tracy (1)

( The Grand Arena )

As the time for the first match grew near, the crowd grew more and more restless as the clatter of the crowd was only cut through, when the match announcer’s voice rang throughout the massive Grand Arena.

“LADIES, GENTLEMEN, ORCS, DWARVES, ELVES, BEASTMEN….. ARE YOU READYYYYY?” The announcer said excitedly, as his energetic voice only caused the crowd to respond with even louder cheers.

“The wait is finally over….. it’s time for the quarter finals to start. I wonder who would win? I wonder who would be that talented individual who would get one of their wishes fulfilled by our great Emperor Julien D Evanus?

Who do you guys think will win?” The announcer said, as for a brief moment there was pure chaos in the crowd, with everyone chanting a different name, however, as a few seconds passed by, there was only one chant that resounded the loudest through the crowd.

“BOSS! BOSS! BOSS! BOSS!”

The chants of ‘Boss’ reverberated throughout the arena as it became clear that he was the crowd favorite to win this tournament.

The announcer, being an expert in crowd manipulation, joined their chants of ‘Boss’, fanning the flames to make it even louder as his support made the crowd happy.

“I guess the audience is right. The first fight today is indeed scheduled between ‘TheBoss’ and his enigmatic opponent the mighty Elf warrior ‘TRACYYYYY-‘ ” He announced, as at the announcement of Tracy’s name, the Elf community in the stands began beating war-drums, as they thummed a low rhythmic beat.

“Let’s go Tracy!”

*Clap* *Clap* *Clap*

“Let’s go Tracy”

*Clap* *Clap* *Clap*

The Elves began supporting their lone candidate in this Grand Tournament, as their support was met with heavy Boo’s and Jeers from the crowd.

“Introducing first, From The Elven Kingdom Vanaheim, The Archer blessed with the prodigal talent of the Elf God Ellivor himself.

Please welcome, Tracy Baldur–” The announcer said as Tracy walked out of the warm-up arena in full battle gear with a quiver full of arrows.

She wore silver armor and matching silver boots which reflected the sunlight shining over the arena brightly.

*Swoosh*

*Swoosh*

Shooting two arrows into the air, she hit the first arrow with the second mid-air, creating a massive explosion that rocked the entire arena.

*KABOOM*

The earth shook and the arena rumbled as Tracy entered the fighting stage in style.

*BOOO*

*BOOO*

Faced with approximately 180,000 people Booing her, Tracy felt the pressure of not being the crowd favorite, as she felt 180,000 piercing gazes penetrating her back as she felt slightly nervous.

Looking towards the small section of the crowd that had come to her support and were holding massive banners for her, Tracy waved happily to them and tried to ignore the hostilities from the humans.

It was moments like these where the bias against the other races living inside unity Empire became evident, as the crowd Boo’d Tracy not because she was a bad individual or a bad fighter, but just because she was not human, which made them prejudiced against her.

As Tracy made her way towards the starting spot, the match official shook her hand and began explaining the rules of the contest to her once again, while the match announcer continued with his announcement.

“Introducing next…..”

As soon as the announcer said those words, the crowd erupted into an unprecedented cheer in anticipation for ‘TheBoss’, prompting the announcer to pause for a moment as he understood that nobody was listening to him anymore.

“Introducing next …. The masked menace…. The one who has won the hearts of the masses…. The lethal fighter yet to break sweat in any of his fights.

The Humiliator Of Geniuses

The Pride Of The Commoners.

PLEASE WELCOME

THE BOSSSSSSSS” He said energetically, as Leo walked out into the arena with his arms spread wide.

*Boss! Boss! Boss!*

Cheers rained down on Leo from the crowd, as he felt like a God gracing his frantic believers with his presence.

Thankfully, Leo had his face covered with a mask, as without it, the stupid grin that was spread across his face would have been exposed.

He did not know when the cult-like following he had grew to such an unprecedented scale, however, as he walked out to the arena with over 180,000 people chanting for him, he couldn’t help but feel goosebumps running down his spine.

The atmosphere of the Grand Arena was unlike anything he had ever experienced before, as when 200,000 eyeballs fell on him, both hostile and loving, Leo could not help but feel as if he had achieved a big milestone in life, as he truly felt like he was ‘TheBoss’.

Although there were thousands of eyes on him, Leo still tried to desperately scan the entire arena to get a glimpse of Ben, as of all the gazes wishing to meet his eyes, Leo only wished to match Ben’s.

While he could not find Ben in the crowd, he did make eye-contact with the Emperor when he was looking around, as the Emperor raised his wine cup towards Leo, prompting him to greet him back with a ‘Thumbs up’ sign.

This casual interaction between Leo and the Emperor caught the eyes of many, as while Leo did it on the fly feeling overly confident…. Him giving thumbs up to the Emperor sent shockwaves through the nobility circle, who thought that there was some private dealing going on between Leo and the Emperor.

Unlike Tracy, Leo made no flashy moves that exploded into the sky, however, he began jumping on his designated starting spot as he loosened his muscles and assumed his signature fighting stance.

” Hello contestant, I’ll be the match referee today….. I expect a clean fight with no permanent injuries or deaths, so please refrain from causing permanent harm to your opponent.

While it’s not banned and won’t get you disqualified, your opponent is also important for the future of this Empire and a valuable talent, so we hope that you don’t harm her.

That aside, this match can only be won via incapacitation or submission, since there will be no arena outs or any other special method of winning.

Do you understand?” The match referee said, as he walked up to Leo and explained him the rules, to which Leo nodded and replied “I understand-”

Getting the acknowledgement that he needed, the referee walked away from Leo towards the center, as he prepared to announce the start of the fight.
