BXBX NOVEL Chapter 80: Winner of the Arena
Elian had made a foolish choice and suffered the consequences.
When the arena was cleared, the referee called a few people into the arena. A small podium appeared in the arena and then, at the referee's request, the contestants were placed on the podium.
There were a total of 7 people on the podium, lined up in the order of the podium, with James himself standing in the first row.
After the referee congratulated all the contestants, he presented them with their awards and then it was James' turn.
When the referee stood in front of James, he had a pen in his hand, and as he held it out to his right a few dim lights formed in the centre of the arena and then a ticket appeared.
The ticket made its way to the referee and fell into his hand, it must have been the ticket Nemesis had been talking about.
The referee suddenly handed the ticket to James and said, "I have a pretty good idea of what you're going to do, so take it for what it's worth."
James then reached for the ticket and took it, and at that very moment a window opened in front of him:
[Space-Time Teleportation Ticket(Creator+++++)
This ticket is an incredibly powerful object created by chaos itself.
To use the ticket, think of the destination.
When the ticket is used, wherever the user is, whatever they are doing, they are entitled to any point on any floor of the tower, one way and one way back.
The ticket consumes a very small amount of body energy.
The ticket will send the user directly back when the departure time is up.
Duration of stay is exactly 1 week].
Reading the window, James smiled and realised that he had indeed won the ticket to reach the gods for a short time.
After all this, the referee turned around and spoke inside the arena, looking at the window right in front of him.
"This year's arena champion is Umbra of Chaos with 7973 wins, we wish them continued success."
With those words, one by one, the spectators of the arena began to disappear, while Ariel and Perseus looked towards James and smiled.
With that, it was clear that the arena was over, James had won, as many gods had expected, and now there was only one thing for him to do, rest.
Therefore, Ariel and Perseus left the arena, albeit slowly, and then returned to the 5th floor with joy.
After returning to the 5th floor, the person who welcomed them was Theseus himself.
Theseus seemed happy to see his cousin Perseus, and as soon as he gave his cousin a big hug, he turned to James and gave him a big hug, even if it was a little disrespectful in the eyes of the gods.
"We love you too Theseus, but please leave us, we need to get some rest, me and Ariel," James said suddenly.
The tiredness in James' eyes was obvious to everyone. James and Ariel were greeted by the cheers of a different person every time they took a step.
James, who had managed to reach the imperial palace after a short time, was greeted by a large crowd as usual. The surprise on Ariel's face was clear, of course, she knew that the Church of Night controlled almost the entire 5th floor, but she was surprised to see James being greeted like this.
When James introduced Ariel, the looks of the imperial family and the church changed instantly. Both the church and the empire had learnt that the Chaos Guild had grown, there was now a commander, and according to James, she was more powerful than he was.
Ariel was given a private room, right next to James' room, though.
However, just resting seemed to be the only thing to do.
As James lay on the bed he closed his eyes and managed to fall asleep in just a minute, when he opened his eyes again he realised that he had only had a few hours of sleep and when he checked the system he noticed a few notifications.
As soon as he tapped on the notifications, several windows opened in front of him.
[The Necklace of Life (Godly-) was gifted by High Admin Ronald].
[Rewards for defeating the Arena without being defeated will be delivered now.
50 million gold coins were gifted.
The fame of the Chaos Guild has increased by 10,000.
The player received the Intuition(Unique++) ability.
The player gains experience potion].
James scratched his head as he finished reading the windows in front of him and put his head back on the pillow to go back to sleep as if he was tired of what had happened, but his curiosity would not let him sleep.
He immediately stood up and then went to his inventory and started looking for the item called 'experience potion'. After finding the item, he smiled and looked at the properties section:
[Elixir of Experience(NO TIER, NO GRADE)
This potion was created for Umbra by High Admin himself.
Drinking the potion will give the player 50% more experience points for each monster killed or quest completed].
James thought that he would be able to examine the ability he had gained when he put the item in his inventory, so he took the ticket out of his inventory, he had to get ready, so he got up, took a short shower and then dressed nicely and held the ticket.
He smiled, knowing exactly how to use the ticket, and then began to think about Nemesis.
He didn't know where Olympus was or where Nyx was, but he had physically seen Nemesis, so it would certainly be easier to get to her.
After a short while, a window appeared in front of him:
[Do you wish to teleport to Floor 150?
YES/NO]
James smiled and then as if he knew what the answer was, he pressed yes without waiting, a portal opened in front of him and then he realised what he had to do.
He was going to go up to the house of the gods, if only for a week.
