Gods' Impact Online

'Why is the child of atrocity here?! Brother, what are you thinking? Did you forget atrocity is the definition of abomination! And his child is… he can be a greater abomination!'

The sixth then remembered his behavior with Zach. And his face turned pale.

'What have I done?! I threatened him and disrespected him! I even treated him harshly! What if he decides to annihilate the kingdom or even the entire sea realm?!'

The sixth couldn't stop freaking out.

'I stared into his shadow for only one second. One mere second, and I was nearly devoured by it.'

The first time someone dared to look into Zach's eyes was Kyle, who was scared senseless and nearly flew back to heaven. The second time was the lord abomination, and the third time was Malinda Edna, the dragon who was the world boss of the first realm. Then, Aquitius the seventh recognized Zach by simply looking into his eyes. After that, it was Aquitius the sixth.

Out of the five, only Edna was the one who wasn't scared after looking into Zach. Maybe because she had no reason to fear him, or perhaps because she was already dead.

However, Aria looked into Zach's domain, where she saw their real forms. She said she wasn't afraid, but she was a little scared. Although the main reason was that they looked disgusting to her.

'Oh, no… what should I do now?' the sixth asked himself. 'Is it too late to apologize? But what should I apologize for? How should I apologize? My apologies need to be honest and sincere, or I will make him angrier.'

The sixth looked at his hand and found them trembling.

'Ah, this fear. My body remembers it. How could it ever forget the battle.' the sixth gulped down in fear and wondered, 'I will beg him to spare Aquarius and Rilu.'

The sixth looked at Zach and noticed he was staring right back at him.

'Is he waiting for my apology?'

Zach was simply waiting for the sixth to announce the match result.

"Did I win?!" Zach asked out loud.

The sixth stood up and cleared his throat before saying, "The winner of the match is—"

"Not yet!" a voice rang into the arena. Starlord stood up and said, "I haven't given up yet!"

"You are badly injured. There is no point of fighting now," the sixth asserted.

"No…" Starlord glared at Zach and said, "I am going to win."

'Just stay put, dude. Why are you making it worse?' Zach wanted to say that, but he didn't care anyway.

"You cannot win against him," the sixth uttered in a loud voice. "Now surrender!"

"I am the strongest champion of this kingdom! And I won't be defeated by some outsider!" he yelled. "And the princess is mine."

'Come on, dude. Even I won't be that stupid to fight someone if I was in your state,' Zach inwardly.

Unfortunately, the sixth couldn't announce the winner unless one of them had won or surrendered. 

Starlord was dead serious about fighting Zach while Zach was thinking about what he would eat for dinner tonight.

'What is this fool thinking?!' the sixth yelled inwardly. 'Why doesn't he give up? He has no idea who he is fighting. He should be glad that the child of atrocity hasn't killed him yet!'

Of course, a king could disqualify a contender upon his wish if he wanted to. However, the sixth did not want to do that.

'If I disqualify Starlord, my citizens would think I didn't give him a chance. They might even think I favored an outsider over an insider.'

'Moreover, it would be like an insult towards Starlord, and the citizens might go against me.'

After pondering for a while, the sixth decided, 'I cannot stop him. I can't betray my citizens.'

'It's easy to be a king, but it's hard to stay a king,' the sixth recalled his late father's words, who was killed by Zach's father.

The sixth was yet to announce his decision, but Starlord didn't wait for it. He ate the gems on his spears and started chanting a spell.

'No, you fool! Don't do that!' the sixth yelled inwardly.

Suddenly, Starlord's Scorpio tail started glowing, and its size increased to twice the size of his body.

The sixth's face turned pale after seeing that.

'Has he lost his mind?! That big sting can kill him. And killing is against the rules of the event!'

Starlord jumped in the air and swung his tail at Zach to sting him.

"Stop!" the sixth yelled on top of his lungs.

However, it was too late. Before Starlord could even land a hit on Zach, Zach summoned a concentrated lightning sword and made the sushi out of him.

Starlord's body parts fell to the ground, and a pale green liquid came out of his body.

"I don't know what I am eating for dinner tonight, but I am definitely not eating sushi for a while now," Zach asserted with a sigh in a solemn voice.

The normal lightning sword had yellow color. Its color changed to blue when Zach released 1000 MP on the lightning sword. And its color changed to red when Zach released 5000 MP, which was concentrated lightning.

"Boo!" 

The viewers started booing Zach and throwing stuff at him. Zach dodged as much as he could, but they were throwing too much stuff, so Zach started blocking them with a shield and a sword.

'This is bad!' The sixth jumped into the ring and uttered, "Enough!"

Everyone stopped throwing, and the entire arena went silent.

"Starlord went against the rules and tried to kill him. So he had done nothing but protect himself," the sixth glanced around the arena and continued, "If someone disrespects him, it would be equal to disrespecting me and this kingdom."

After that, no one dared to say or do anything.

The sixth turned to Zach and said, "I have no excuses for my champions and the citizens' behavior."

"As long as you give me a nice dinner, I don't care. I am too hungry to give a shit about all this," Zach replied with a shrug.
