Chapter 76: 76. CONVERSATIONS
Back in Crilion…
In the VIP area of the coliseum, multiple sitting figures could be seen each having their full attention on the illusory screens right in front of them.
Once in a while these individuals would glance at their sitting partners, it seemed they were talking but no words left their mouths.
A particular lady who watched Noah’s team, Noah to be exact. Would smile multiple times, as she seemed to enjoy what she observed.
“Is he that interesting,” The mental voice of her sit partner wondered.
“Oh, he actually is. If you would just stop fantasizing about sleeping with little Isabella, you would understand, Solomon,” She replied sharply, her mental voice not holding back on the mockery and disdain it held.
The man could not reply, as only a frown appeared on his face, though he glanced at the lady’s screen, and only after a minute did he get interested.
Multiple other individuals also tuned in to Noah’s team, each of them carrying different ideas in mind, but one thing common was that they all knew he was dangerous.
“Who exactly is he?” Solomon said in astonishment after witnessing Noah’s Lightning domain taking out the evolved eagles.
“I think he’s someone that can be useful,” The lady said with a light smile on her face.
“But we barely know anything about him. He could be very dangerous if he advances in power,” Solomon replied.
A few seconds of silence passed before the lady answered. “Yes, he may be someone dangerous. So far I’ve seen many extraordinary qualities in him, if left to grow he would be someone threatening, that’s why we should bring him on our side,” She replied.
“What type of offer would you give him, don’t forget he’s but a mere peak stage tier 2,” Solomon said.
“If he manages to win the whole event, offering him something would be difficult, due to the royal family, but it isn’t impossible, after all, I’ll offer him something he can’t turn down.” The lady laughed.
“And besides he isn’t actually in the peak stage, if you had inspected him earlier, you would know this,” She snorted, then focused on the scenes on the screen.
On another side of the VIP area, a deadly conversation about Noah was going on.
“What should we do about someone like him? He’s too dangerous to be left alone.” A black-haired man dressed in a beautifully embroidered Red robe, which had yellow inscriptions flickered every now and then.
“He isn’t the only outstanding individual. Yes, he’s abilities and even elements are too top tier for someone like him, but apart from that, he’s on par with Isabella and Moses,” The man’s seat partner who was draped in an equally red robe, but had yellow hair and a bored expression said.
“Exactly. He isn’t from any noble family, neither is there any information about him.” The man said visibly serious about the matter.
“Ugh…Polo, you can do whatever you want. Just make sure you don’t disturb the Royals’ plans,” the man said.
“But sir Oliver, that’s not possible,” Polo exclaimed.
“Exactly! So leave me be. Whatever happens, we’ll know. This is still the first day after all,” Sir Oliver said, returning all his focus to the scenes playing out on the floating screens.
Polo only sighed, as he also returned his attention to the floating screens, whatever happened would determine his next move.
In another part of the VIP area, a more lax conversation was going on.
“Do you think he’ll be on par with my sweet Isabella,” A man who looked in his middle age said, to his seat partner, who was also his spouse. The man’s eyes didn’t radiate lustful Intentions but fatherly love.
“Hmmmm. He seems able to. Every one of us knows he lied to his teammates about his cultivation level. So as a middle stage, he actually has a very high chance of defeating her. I just hope they don’t clash I fear the outcome,” the middle-aged woman explained as worry formed on her face.
“Don’t worry we trained her to be smart. If she does encounter him, I’m sure she’ll play it smart” The man tried to reassure his wife, but even he couldn’t escape the clutches of parental worry.
Multiple other conversations of noble identities went on, some weren’t about Noah, but the ones that did involve important people who will be introduced later in our story.
Though one particular conversation was happening, and it was among the representatives of the royal family.
“We’ve found possible winners of this event, and it seems this stage is child’s play for them.” A man who looked in his mid-twenties had long blue hair, and an aloof aura, said to his group of three.
“Yes. Most of which we know about, but this person, we know nothing about.” Another one of the three said. He also looked to be in his mid-twenties but sported blonde hair.
The last person, who was Elder Malachi said through his mental waves, “Hmmm…Truly it’s strange, we’ll have to inform the higher-ups about him. But let’s wait and see after all this is only the first day. Time and chance can change it all.” he explained calmly.
Elder Malachi was a man who looked like he had just entered the age of thirty. He had long earth brown hair which he kept in a simple ponytail. His eyes were bright yellow, as they seemed to shine in that environment. Something about being in tier 4 amplified his natural beauty.
His small movements caused ripples to spread In the environment, as if not that most people present were also in tier 4, or had items to withstand pressure at that level, he would greatly discomfort them.
His expression revealed someone who was detached from his emotions, he smiled once in a while, but those smiles were usually cold. His yellow eyes radiated someone with many years of experience, as they held secrets that most people didn’t know could exist.
He was the one elected by the royal family to be the host of this year’s bozolom, but that wasn’t all. He also had a very important job. Which was to fish out eventually troublemakers in the country, and currently he had multiple candidates in mind.
Bringing out a jug of wine that was expensive enough to buy mansions. Elder Malachi drank, while he watched the scenes of the ongoing event, the flash of an idea coming to light up his cold expression, as he stood.
Sweeping his gaze around the VIP area, that was big enough to place a house in it.
Elder Malachi’s aura seeped out of his figure, alerting the other personalities about his interest to converse with them.
Seeing that they all got the message, he spoke using his consciousness.
“I hope you are all enjoying yourselves,” he said, seeing them nod, he continued.
“I’m sure you all have seen how easy this stage has been for our participants, I’m sure most of you aren’t finding it too Interesting. So I have a proposal, why don’t we crank things up a bit, just when this stage is about to end.”
