241  He Is Trying to Look Cool Again

"Hey, look! It's city mistress. She has come."

"Lieutenant Valeria, Captain Noah, and Captain Lia are coming too."

"It seems like this duel is more important than I thought because all influential people are coming to see the duel."

"Actually, I knew city mistress would come because Ace was her boytoy. I just did not expect the people from three big families to come too."

"Yes. I thought none of the people from big families would come to watch the duel, but I was wrong."

"Hey, don't you think more people are coming to this arena?"

"Ah, you are right. There are so many people in this place now."

"Then this duel will become a hot topic for sure later."

"I think so too."

"I hope this fight doesn't disappoint because I decided not to work for the sake of watching this fight."

"I also skip working. Haha."

The audience did not expect the duel between Ace and Leo to attract the attention of all influential people.

The arena was even packed with people as if there was going to be an important competition soon.

"Ace, Scarlett has come." Layla said as she looked at Scarlett.

Ace did not say anything and only smiled softly at Scarlett.

Scarlett, who was walking with her subordinates, glanced at Ace for three seconds.

'I hope you don't get badly hurt later, Ace.'

She and her subordinates headed to the second floor.

The second floor on the left side of the arena was for ordinary people with high status, like Henry, and people from three big families.

As the second floor on the other side was only for Scarlett and her subordinates. This was the reason why Ace sat in the other area because he could not sit with her.

After sitting on a throne chair, Scarlett looked at the audience.

'This arena is full of people. Henry really made everyone come to watch this duel.'

She sat cross-legged as she paid attention to her people.

'But this is good too.'

Ace wanted everyone to know that he was not a weak young man, so from her point of view, this was a golden opportunity to let everyone know how strong he was.

'Everything depends on you now, Ace.'

She shifted her gaze from Ace to Aron.

Even though she did not say anything, Aron understood what she wanted. For this reason, he walked toward the battle ring.

After standing in the center of the fight zone, Aron uttered, "My name is Aron Olson. I will be the referee for the duel between Ace and Leo."

The volume of chatter in the arena rose.

"What?! Mister Aron will be the referee?"

"Did I hear it right?"

"Hey, Mister Aron said he would be the referee. Did you hear the same thing?"

"I also heard it."

"Why did they make him a referee?"

"I also want to know about this."

The audience was startled when Aron said he would be the referee.

He was the head of the Olson family, so normally, something like this would not happen. This was the reason why chatter suddenly erupted.

Actually, Scarlett was the one who asked him to be the referee. This duel was important, so she chose him as a referee because he was known as an upright and neutral person.

Aron ignored the chatters and uttered, "Leo, Ace, please come down to the arena now."

Before Leo stood up, Henry uttered, "Son, go down and defeat him. Let everyone know how strong you are."

Leo rose to his feet and responded, "I will not disgrace our family's reputation, Father. I will show everyone how strong I am."

"Good!" Henry liked his answer.

"Wait for my victory, father." After saying that, Leo jumped down to the arena.

Even though he was on the second floor, he was not afraid of getting hurt because he was an awakener at the Master rank.

"Whoa! He jumped down from the second floor."

"Hey, is he going to be fine? After all, he jumped from the second floor."

"Have you forgotten how strong he is? He is already at Master rank, so he will be fine."

"I see."

The audience didn't expect Leo to come down to the arena by jumping from the second floor.

After landing on the arena safely, Leo stood on Aron's right side.

'Come down quickly, Ace.'

He could not wait to beat Ace up in front of everyone because he believed it would be exciting.

Like the others, Ace was also shocked.

'Ho?'

He did not expect Leo to make an entrance like that.

'What a brutal way to go down to the arena.'

He slowly rose to his feet and walked forward.

"Hey, look at Ace! What is he doing?"

"Does he want to jump too?"

"What?! He wants to make the same entrance?"

"Is he really going to go down to the arena by jumping?"

The audience was shocked when they saw Ace.

Actually, Ace wanted to go down to the arena by walking earlier, but he changed his mind after seeing Leo.

'Ice Wing.'

A pair of beautiful ice wings slowly formed behind his back.

Leo made a brutal entrance, so he wanted to do the opposite.

"Hey, look! A pair of wings is forming behind Ace's back."

"Whoa! What a beautiful pair of wings!"

"Is he using a magic?"

"I suddenly want to have a pair of wings like that."

"Me too."

The audience could not take their eyes off him after seeing the beautiful ice wings on Ace's back.

At that moment, he did not look like a human being, but an angel, especially when he was slowly descending from the second floor.

"Is an angel descending on our city?"

"Is Ace an angel?"

"I finally know that angel is real."

"Ace is indeed a special human. He is different from the rest of us."

"I think so too."

All women began praising him because, at that time, Ace looked like an angel who descended from the highest heavens.

Leo, who saw Ace, snorted.

'Hmm! I will let you happy for now.'

He knew Ace had Ice Wing magic, so he was not as shocked as everyone.

Layla, who was sitting on the chair, gave a thumb up. "Nice entrance, Ace!"

[God of Wind utters, as usual, he always tries to look cool.]

[God of Mountain speaks, but it's not a bad entrance.]

[Several divine beings nod their heads.]

Scarlett and Valeria did not say anything and only stared at him.

'So cool! Ace is indeed the best man in the world.'

However, they kept praising him in their minds.

"This kid is sure something. He always manages to attract everyone's attention." Captain Noah smiled as he shook his head.

Like his son, Henry grimaced. "Hmf!"

Lexie covered her mouth and giggled. "He did not want to lose to Leo."

Aron also had the same thought as Lexie.

'It seems like the duel has begun before I start it.'

He believed Ace did that because he did not want to lose to Leo.

After Ace landed in the arena, Aron uttered, "The fight won't end until one of you surrenders. But I need you to stop fighting when I say stop. Do you understand?"

"I understand." Leo and Ace responded in unison.

"Finally, the fight is about to begin."

"My hands are shaking with excitement."

"Me too."

"I hope I can see an epic fight later."

"Yes. I hope the fight won't end quickly."

One by one, the audience said excitingly.

After looking at Ace and Leo, Aron uttered, "Fight!"
