Chapter 54: [Weekly Bonus - 1/6] Snu Snu?
Following Adrian’s win, the crowd went silent, trying to figure out what just happened. One moment, it seemed the outsider would die. But the tables had turned in the blink of an eye, and the mighty Bakira was whimpering on the floor.
They were surprised because Bakira wasn’t someone to mess with, even with a weapon, let alone without one. The tribespeople knew that.
Bakira was a fierce creature with no bounds other than its master’s words. A beast whose day began with wrestling with the chieftain and ended while hunting for prey. Yet it was defeated so quickly, and everyone found that strange.
But the winner didn’t care about what the rest thought of him. Adrian was busy acting like he owned the place, i.e. the cage and stared A’Mila down, still grinning. Meanwhile, Bakira, pinned and helpless, let out another yelp, making A’Mila angrier.
"ENOUGH!" she yelled. "Open the cage!"
Akila instructed the men to open the cage, and Adrian hopped off Bakira, walking towards the other end of the cage.
He was well aware of everyone’s reaction to his victory. While he wanted to get some payback for the humiliation he had been through, rubbing his win in A’Mila’s face wasn’t the only reason Adrian put on a performance.
It had been a while since he toyed with the entities and made them empty their wallets. Thus, when faced with the challenge of fighting Bakira, he saw it as the ideal moment to attract sponsorships.
True to his expectations, the entities were intrigued by his performance, and he got seven stat points as a reward for his efforts.
’A little less than I expected, but hey, it’s free points, so I ain’t complaining!’
[The lesser entity, ’Hunting Is My Passion’, wants to know how you defeated the Shadowstalker as she had never seen a mortal defeat such a majestic beast bare-handed.]
