Chapter 83: Prelude (2/2)
Some bookies preset the winning odds of Einherjar Wannabe as 1:7 to 1:9, even the official administration set their rates as 1:4 to 1:6. It wasn’t because they decided to abandon Einherjar Wannabe, but they had to make their decisions based on business and profit perspective.
In short, there was no turning back for Einherjar Wannabe.
“Please, can somebody tell me why is this stupid match happening?!” Cameron raged as he stared at the screen.
“Sir, he made that decision himself...”
Cameron was furious. Einherjar Wannabe was the only hot issue recently, even though Cameron knew Einherjar Wannabe’s fame wouldn’t last forever, he didn’t expect him to crash down this soon. This quarter would end in less than a month, yet they were not even close to the business target preset by the board of directors; if this continued, he would be fired before the end of the year.
It wasn’t that he refused to create another legend or hero, but none of the descendants of celebrities would show up in PA. No one would possess the ability to conquer forever unless they were from the House of Li; but if the hero was from the House of Li, then it would lose its own mysteriousness because the outcome would be within people’s expectation.
Einherjar Wannabe was his best candidate. It has been so long since the crowd were this excited and couldn’t wait to see another player in action; he was the focus of attention. Even though Einherjar Wannabe might be forgotten soon, Cameron still hoped that the guy could be his “golden goose” for a little longer.
Yet Einherjar Wannabe chose to fight a God-damn IPA fighter who happened to have the God-damn Golden Marksman. Cameron was left speechless by what he had witnessed.
The boy had overrated his own capabilities!
He should know that image was not only crucial to celebrities but to heroes as well!
Wang Tong had no clue that his simple decision would cause such a scene. All he knew was that he couldn’t wait to face his opponent.
Solitary Snow showed up, he didn’t expect himself to be chosen by the famous TPA fighter, it was totally a random decision when he sent the challenge invitation to Einherjar Wannabe.
Nevertheless, every IPA players dreamed of stepping their foot into this arena and challenge a TPA ace fighter to a duel. They were not able to do so in reality, hence they would cherish a rare opportunity like this.
Solitary Snow had no idea what was Einherjar Wannabe up to, all he knew was that he had to claim the victory by giving out his best performance, even if this would be his last fight.
Nothing of his past mattered anymore, as of this moment, he was the representative of the IPA community, and he would vanquish his foe, Einherjar Wannabe, with all his might!
This match received a huge publicity given by the fact that it might be Einherjar Wannabe’s “last fight” and also due to his argumentative choice of opponent. It was definitely a big hit, especially amongst IPA players; not a single famous TPA player would have dared to challenge them, not to mention an opponent with a Dream-rank METAL Suit!
It was a full house in the 59th Arena. It was a small arena that could only fit a hundred thousand spectators, but the seats were sold out within a short period of time.
The spectators were mostly IPA players because they wouldn’t want to miss out the chance to witness on the spot, as for the rest who couldn’t get into the arena, they had no choice but to watch the live broadcast instead.
Cameron was amazed by the data, what a shame as this would be the final dazzling moment of a “firework”.
“Sir, do you think we should suggest them to do it in a bigger arena?”
“Nevermind, it’s already too late for that.” Cameron shook his head, he sensed everything was going to end in despair, and he was depressed about his soon-to-plummet business performances.
