Rise or Fall

In their respective domains, aside from the humans, the people of the other races of Eldoralth were quiet.

Even in the arena, where the crowd had been screaming at the top of their lungs earlier, it was now utterly silent.

The other races were currently going through a wave of complex emotions, difficult to describe.

For the Verietega Nexus, numerous races had gathered in the arena to personally witness the apex battles firsthand. However, among the crowd, only citizens of the superior races and a few from the mid tier races were present. Not a single human was among them.

Even if some humans had been present, despite how thrilling the situation was, they wouldn't have felt safe enough to cheer in this atmosphere.

The crowd was deathly silent, and many couldn't help but stare at the announcement in disbelief.
