"The next Pandelympics will be held at the Champion's country."

The news of the next Pandelympics being held on the Champions country not only ignite discussion but also national assemblies. If the champion of the event will dictate the next Pandelympics then this event is more important than ever.

From an economic standpoint, the number of sales where the Pandelympics were held skyrocketed. The profit that the stores in that area practically shot towards 500%. This is a very big deal to each country as they now have the greed of wanting the next Pandelympics on their country.

Atlas Inc. did this in order to make countries send their best of the best and not because of some having personal connections. They wanted the Pandelympics to become the clash of the best players in Pandemonium. They would even exclusively give the countries their leaderboards in order to locate the best players.

"Thank you! Mr. Smith for that short but explosive topic. Now for those wondering about the last event, we will now have an exclusive interview with the person who all of you battled mightily. Just as all of you speculated and some of our players exposed, the one behind the King of Twilight Hay-lale is none other than the player that the community coined as The Demon. Equinox!" The announcer stated as a holographic projection started to materialize before them.

The avatar that the Demon uses in the game called Equinox materialized before them. They thought that he would show himself in the flesh, but it seems that there are special circumstances for him being unable to do so.

"Hello everyone! Sorry, that I cannot physically be there as I have some special circumstances. I would like to thank Atlas Inc. for giving me the opportunity of fighting against the best players that the world has to offer.

You guys are not easy to deal with and I am always on my toes during the event. You have given me an invaluable experience for being able to participate and clash against you guys. I have learned a lot from our battle, and I hope that you all have learned something from me as well.

Growing together with others is what makes the game, Pandemonium, fun after all. I hope that next year, I will be one of the contestants that will share the stage with these awesome individuals. Thank you and I hope that all of you enjoyed the events." The holographic projection of Equinox stated before being swallowed by a black hole and vanishing.

"There you go! Equinox himself has given us his precious time and became our Raid boss for the final event. Let me tell you this as some might start practicing for the competition next year, the events for next year's Pandelympics will be different. Do not expect the same thing as we need to have fresh ideas!" The announcer stated as the closing ceremony of the award ceremony started.

Numerous fireworks lit up the sky while the holographic projections of all the players stood tall on top of the arena. The event ended with great applause and energy, but the real heat started after the awards ceremony.

The press conference after the event finally started as news outlets from all over the world flooded the hall. They wanted to have a scoop that they can bring to their countries. As a safety precaution, only two players from each team and their coach are needed to be there.

The press conference started with Mr. Smith opening the questions as he knew that the media wanted to know about his statement earlier. He pointed to one of the media outlets that he knows best in order to start the round of interviews.

"Mr. Smith, how did the decision for the next Pandelympics be?" The news person asked.

"Thank you for that question. I sure that everyone is waiting for the reason behind that decision. I would like to say that I did not come up with it on the spot. It is after careful deliberation and the unanimous vote of all the branch heads and the board of directors that we reached such conclusion.

This all happened even before the Pandelympics started and we just wanted to keep it under wraps as a big present for the champions. We will not reverse this decision and the champion next year will also decide the consecutive Pandelympics location." Mr. Smith answered calmly as flashes of light flooded the room.

Mr. Smith answered the questions perfectly with also a hint of great assurance. The meaning behind those words meant that only those that succeed can have the cake. He basically told every country that wanted the Pandelympics to be held to send your best if you want a piece.

"What if the country in question has no capacity to hold such prestigious event in under a year?" One of the reporters asked as if he is telling the undeveloped countries that they should not even dream. The reporters from lower economic strata countries can only glare at the reporter who asked that.

"If that is one of your concerns then you should not pay it much heed. Atlas Inc. will shoulder the concern and even aid with the project to make sure that they will be ready. We as a company think that is a small price for the blood, sweat and tears of the players that take part in our events." Mr. Smith stated which made the media blow up even more.

He basically admitted that they will shoulder the cost of everything if the champion country cannot do so alone. Atlas Inc. basically promised help without payment which could very well turn the tides for countries of the lower economic strata.

After the interview with the event developers, the ten-minute panel for each country started. The interview for the players is not as heated as that of the previous interview but many still watched. Their favorite players are speaking about their experiences or how they got better in the game. Some players that have great marketability even started to get brand offers.
