" H-he's dead? Our champion is dead?" A man asked with a broken voice as he could not believe what he was witnessing.
A massive bolt of lightning descended from the heavens and just claimed Eden's life, there was no suffering, no struggles, just one crackling sound and he was no more amongst the ranks of the living.
The man felt his throat go dry as he looked around for support and answers from his fellow humans, but none of them were able to meet his gaze.
" The winner of this match, By Death, the champion of planet #H2047, MAX RAJPUT! ". The announcer said as the humans from Earth burst into a thunderous applause for their champion who brought them glory.
The east stands celebrated like they had just won the most significant battle of their lives as the elation amongst their ranks could not be measured.
But while the East stand fans were singing, jumping and hugging each other, The west end was completely gloomy and dead silent.
Max's words resonated strongly amongst the humans of #H2050, the Strongest individual of their planet was Eden, a tier4 warrior whereas the real powerhouses of Earth had not even participated in this battle personally.
If they truly acted rowdy or refused to bow their heads after this defeat today, the only thing keeping their planet from absolute annihilation was Neatwits virtue and self control.
" He must have cheated! This is impossible, how can Eden's most powerful attack be dispelled as if it's a child's play?" A woman from 2050 complained as she wanted to raise conspiracy theories and put the outcome of the battle in jeopardy to avoid bowing their heads before humans of 2047, however, her husband at this moment covered her mouth with his hand as he glared into her eyes to tell her to shut-up.
Max walked around the arena as its apex predator, and not a single resident of planet 2050 dared to look him in the eye anymore like they did at the start of the battle.
All their eyes were either shut close in tears or bent down in shame. His last attack having broken any spine they had left.
Satisfied that the job he had been summoned for was complete, Max walked down the arena ramp once more, his intention being to get lost from the public eye once more.
The moment he walked down the tunnel and entered the warm-up room, Zippo once again merged with his shadow silently as a few healers urged Max to let them heal his minor bruises but Max refused them, as quickly packing his stuff he was on his way out.
While the Earthlings celebrated madly back at the arena, Max was headed towards the teleportation centre of the human federation capital, but before he could leave the building completely, he was stopped by Neatwit at the exit.
" Good fight, Rudra would have been proud " the guildmaster of the elites said as he appreciated Max's help with today's matter.
" Thankyou, guildmaster " Max said politely, not refusing his good-will at all.
" You know you can contact us if you ever run into trouble right? While I'm not a monarch, not many can offend the Elites in this universe" Neatwit said as he reminded Max that he did have a backing back home.
" I know guildmaster, thankyou " Max said once again, showing no real emotion.
" If we want to contact you in the future…. Is there a way or do we need to make visits to the Bloodfall Clan? " Neatwit asked as the temperature in the surrounding seemed to suddenly drop by a couple of degrees.
" The Bloodfall clan is the only way of contacting me " Max said, looking Neatwit in the eye, much to the god's dismay.
Neatwit had a million questions in his mind at this moment but Max was not willing to answer them as he walked out of the arena building calmly and made his way to the teleportation centre before moving straight to Dombivli City.
After this fight, Neatwit was hoping to rope Max back-into the guild, he was even considering offering him the spot of an elder and nurture him into becoming the next guildmaster, however, it seemed like his loyalties had already been bought by Ravan Bloodfall.
While he understood that he could not tell Max how to live his life, he was a little disappointed that Earth's greatest rising talent had been poached by a vampire group rather than the Elites.

( Meanwhile Angakok )
Angakok looked masterfully at his own time chamber whose construction had finally been completed.
Some of the universe's most ancient god's had laboured continuously for 95 years to complete the internal carvings and stabilise the creation for practical use.
Initially, the living conditions inside the chamber were like the void, absolutely devoid of any matter with air pressure similar to the outer universe and a non-existent mana flow.
Should any mortal enter the chamber, they would die instantly from the environmental conditions, However, after a series of internal carvings the atmosphere inside had been made to sustain life and recycle all forms of energy expended within the chamber.
Only now could Angakok bring Max inside the chamber to train as his first plan of building the chamber was finally complete.
As the five god's walked out of the chamber, they were slightly happy to realise that despite them doing nothing but laborious work for 95 years, carving intricate patterns, only 3 months had passed in reality.
Glancing at Angakok who was in a celebratory mood, Kremeth wondered how long it would take for the Shaman God to bring Max over for his training now that the structure he was building was finally complete.
It did not take him long to find the answer either, as Angakok revealed during the after- party that he was planning on bringing Max over to start his training the next day.
