I Became The Mafia Boss Inside The Novel-Chapter 91 Right Hand and Left Hand (3)
Chapter 91 Right Hand and Left Hand (3)
In the sprawling metropolis, one could see a striking white-haired man with a frosty pair of pupils.
Dressed in a formal black suit with a woolen dark coat casually draped over his shoulders, the white-haired man casually exhibited an intimidating and mysterious air.
Before the man, a large and magnificent building towered over his figure.
It was so big that perhaps only the academy building itself was larger than it was in the entire ranker society.
"It's amazing how a building this large can fit in this tiny society,"
As the gigantic building cast a wide shadow over the surroundings, Elias calmly observed
the building in front of him.
Above the massive building, the name of the place was plastered over it.
[Arcana Battleworld]
The towering building in front of him was a very special and unique place. With its size and length alone, it stood out like a giant dome in the city.
This massive building was called Arcana Battleworld. It's an exclusive property of the academy that cannot be bought or sold off.
In other words, no students or club could take the place as their own.
It was a place that was free for all students to enter, whether it be the lowest of the low and the highest of high.
Battleworld, as its name suggests, serves as the arena for the students to gather and fight to their heart's content without the risk of causing damage to the surroundings.
It was usually the place where students flock to when they want to test their new abilities in a sparring match.
They can't just use their power carelessly, or else they might get sued for collateral damage.
And, to put it lightly, collateral damage can be quite expensive.
In short, it was not recommended.
In the entire city, Battleworld was one of the most popular destinations students flock towards; not just for combat purposes but also because of the entertainment it brings.
'People like to watch a good fight.'
Elias mused as he sized up Battleworld from top to bottom.
There were a lot of students entering and exiting Battleworld each second, it was like a flea market.
Everyone loves a good fight. Even back on earth, fighting sports were well-beloved and had ranked at the top of the list in the sports and entertainment industry.
A good fight was satisfying, thrilling, and even vicious to the eyes.
The human heart could be wicked, and though most people wouldn't admit it, there was an undeniable pleasure in watching other people fight using their all in combat.
That dark aspect was what made Arcana Battleworld be very popular amongst the students in the academy. Even nobles from the right side of the city frequent the place to watch other students fight and bet against other people.
Other than that, there were also cases where Clubs recruited their members in the Battleworld as it was a good place to find talented rankers.
To sum it up, Arcana Battleworld was popular with students due to many reasons. It was one of the top most frequented establishments in the city for a big reason.
"Knowing Ragna, he's probably waiting for me there already."
Elias nodded slowly and decided to stop observing. Amidst the bustling crowd, he entered the building with a black case in his hand.
***
Battleworld, 1F
The first floor was spacious, with multiple arenas set throughout the place occupied by various people.
There were also stands on the sides for spectators.
Looking all over the place, Elias saw that almost every arena on the first floor was occupied already.
It made sense.
There were two types of arenas in Battleworld; public, semi-private, and private.
The public arenas were free of cost and only needed a reservation to use, but there was usually a long waiting line for them.
They were located throughout the 1st - 39th floor.
Semi-private arenas, on the other hand, cost 1,299$ academy contribution points for rent. It offered a better arena than public, but not as good as private.
They were located throughout the 40th - 80th floor.
Lastly, the private arena. It costs about 4,999$ academy contribution points per fight, and 8,999$ for long-rent.
The price was expensive, but it was rather justified. The private arena was above and superior compared to the public and semi-private.
Furthermore, true to its name, the private arenas didn't allow spectators to enter unless the private renter invited them.
They were located throughout the 81st - 120th floor.
Elias looked at the public arenas. There were a lot of students fighting on the first floor, but their strengths were mostly around D to D+ Rank.
He strolled around and found the elevator. Entering inside, he saw the long list of buttons that could make one dizzy.
The Arcana Battleworld had an overall 200 amount of floors.
Elias carefully navigated through the buttons and finally found the 111th floor. He pressed it lightly.
Ding!
The elevator abruptly rang as the doors closed.
Elias calmly waited as the elevator rose. The arena he rented for his fight with Ragna was a private arena.
It cost him 4,999$ which depleted a good sum of his contribution points.
But he wasn't that worried. What was the use of money if he didn't spend it?
Call him arrogant, but with his strength getting some academy contribution points was easy.
Besides, it was not like the money he spent was not going to good use.
He rented a private arena because he was going to fight Ragna. He didn't want to let just every Tom, Jerry, and John see his power just yet.
Furthermore, since this was his fight with Ragna — he had to make it the best thing possible.
After all, he had set an agreement with Ragna that whoever lost would do what the winner wanted, with no exceptions.
Elias didn't even have a doubt about his chances. He knew he was going to win, so he knew what he wanted already.
To recruit Ragna to his club.
Thus, one could say this extravagant spending was an "investment" for the future of his club.
'Yeah right, I'm starting to master the art of shamelessness now...'
Elias snickered. It seems being with Hajin for a period of time had affected his personality.
If Hajin had heard his thoughts, the dark-blue-haired man would definitely clap back from being unjustly blamed.
Soon, the elevator arrived at the 111th floor.
Ding!
The elevator door opened.
Elias unhurriedly exited the elevator and saw that there were multiple rooms within the floor, all of which were barred with a pristine white door.
He approached the 11th room and flashed his Student ID Card beside the door.
[Verification Success!]
At that moment, the pristine-white door opened to him and revealed a large white arena with two people.
Hajin was on the private stands beside the arena. He waved at Elias and gave a cheeky laugh.
"Yo, the man of the hour has finally arrived."
On the other side of the arena, Ragna stood with a wide grin. His long, wild white hair drifts like a ravished ravine.
He was shirtless, displaying his entire body's scarred masculine glory. With a physique that could only be described as "demonic" to its core.
So large, and so wide, it was akin to the Body of a Giant.
Ragna immediately spotted him and let out a loud boisterous laugh.
"You've finally arrived! Here I thought you already tucked your tails and ran away, Corleone."
"For a mere challenger, you're awfully arrogant, aren't you? I suppose the monkey from the mountain that never saw the vastness of the world would think he's the strongest,"
Elias tilted his head and entered the room. He dropped his suitcase on the ground, then he removed his woolen black coat.
Carefully putting it over a stand beside the wall, he was left with only his black suit and white shirt.
Then, he took his leather black gloves.
Elias unhurriedly wore the gloves. He cracked his fingers as it resounded loudly. He stretched his hands as he walked to the arena.
"Let's get this done quickly, shall we?"𝒃𝒆𝒅𝙣𝒐𝒗𝙚𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝒎
