I just placed the thought in the back of my mind because the guy I was chasing down turned around and decided to barter with me. He had his arms stretched out like he was trying to conjure an energy ball and I only stopped to give him a bit of respect from doing that.
"Hey! Hey! Let's make a deal!"
"Nope!"
"Wha—"
I just clocked the guy on his jaw before I left him with a tooth missing and I just went on my merry way.
The crowd just started dying-laughing from that very short interaction but some of them were tuned in to the other fights.
My group was doing particularly well, given the circumstances, but Alexei had already dropped out when he was about to get mobbed. Nikolas and Ilya had each other's back, for the most part, and they were piling bodies on their own side of the play area.
I can't believe the last event would be reduced to such chaos but the people from the viewing platforms were loving it.
