'Ouch, ouch, ouch,' Kyle thought as gold coins and Ether Pebbles landed on his face.
His body was slowly recovering as he was being pelted by wealth.
"Winner, Exploding Aegis!" the referee announced.
The crowd continued cheering and throwing money at them, and ten seconds later, Kyle's arms had recovered enough that he could actually protect his face with them.
He slowly stood up and grabbed his hammer.
He took a deep breath and looked at his teammates.
Tracy was sighing in relief as well, while Michael was walking to the unconscious Sorcerer.
When Kyle saw the unconscious Sorcerer, all his rage returned.
This fucking guy nearly killed him!
If it weren't for Kyle's terrifying instincts, he would be dead!
He fucking saved this guy's life by catching a knife with his chest, and this guy had almost killed him in return!
Kyle walked over to the Sorcerer, who was regaining consciousness.
"What?" the Sorcerer asked in confusion as he looked at Michael. "Did we win?"
Michael showed a small smile and nodded. "Yes, we did."
At that moment, a huge hand grabbed the Sorcerer's head and lifted him up.
Michael looked with shock at Kyle.
He hadn't seen what had happened since he had been too busy with his own battle.
The Sorcerer screamed in shock, and very quickly, all his memories returned.
"I'm sorry! It wasn't on purpose! I'm sorry!" he shouted.
Kyle didn't answer and just walked through the open gates, carrying the Sorcerer with him.
"Put him down!" Michael shouted with authority.
"This guy launched his Spell at my back!" Kyle shouted as he kept walking.
Michael stopped in shock.
Launching a Spell at a teammate was the worst thing anyone could do in a tournament. It was even worse when it was a death match!
This was an absolute no-go!
Tracy nervously looked at Kyle, but when she saw Falk, Bormine, and Horatio rushing to Kyle, she decided against charging after him.
Instead, she focused on collecting all the wealth in the arena.
"You don't have to collect this," the referee said as he walked over. "We have people for that. You will receive everything later."
"You should make sure that your Juggernaut isn't going to eat your Sorcerer out of anger."
"Oh, ok," Tracy said politely. "Thank you."
Then, she also charged to Kyle.
"What the fuck?!" Kyle shouted as he held the Sorcerer against a wall.
"It was an accident!" the Sorcerer shouted in fear.
"Kyle! Don't kill him!" Bormine shouted. "We have a mission!"
"Stop, Kyle!" Falk shouted, putting a hand on Kyle's extended arm. "I also want to kill him, but we can't! They're our clients!"
"Don't ruin your future," Horatio said. "If you kill him, you will be labeled as a murderer."
"Please! Please! I'm sorry! I'm so sorry! Don't kill me! Please!" the Sorcerer shouted.
Kyle gritted his teeth in anger.
He wanted to kill the Sorcerer so bad!
"He will be banished from the team and blacklisted from every other team," Michael spoke calmly from the side. "His career is already over."
"He will regret it for the remainder of his life."
Kyle clenched his fist.
Then, he just threw the Sorcerer to the side before storming off.
Naturally, the Sorcerer was still alive.
At this moment, the Sorcerer was looking with terror and fear at the ground.
"What exactly happened?" Michael asked.
The other three members of the Dwarves had been in the audience, which meant they had seen the battle.
They told Michael what had happened, and Michael furrowed his brows.
Yeah, this situation couldn't be any clearer.
