Chapter 56: The Mysterious Man.



While the fat man was rained curses for losing the match and making the people who had bet on him lose.

Staring at the scene with confusion, Felix turned to the side and looked closely at the strange man.

"Is that what you meant when you asked if I noticed something? Also, how did that guy strike so quickly?", he couldn\'t help but ask.

With one leg crossed above the other, the man sat on the seat reclining his back with a slight grin on his lips.

He wore a dark trench coat over a checkered blue suit with a fedora hat atop his head.

His light beard made him look young yet also mature.

His deep gaze turned away from the stage as he took out a silver pocket watch from inside his coat, making a few paper bills fall off, but he quickly kept it back and glanced at the watch.

"Felix right? If you want me to answer your questions, then you\'ll have to win your first battle"

He said pocketing his watch before getting up and walking off into the distance but not forgetting to bid him farewell.

"I\'m sure you\'re going to find me, so until we meet again...."

Staring at the man who appeared elegant but was quick with how he walked, Felix was left pondering inside his mind.

"Wait, how did he know my name..."

The whole situation was confusing to him, making him think that what happened just now was more like a dream.

Felix sat on his seat frowning until he heard the crowd cheering again as different fighters came upon the stage.

He shook his head as he couldn\'t figure out what to do now, the man didn\'t appear harmful but there was this strange feeling every time he looked into his eyes.

With a deep calm pair of eyes that hid a slight trace of evil, Felix could feel that he was no match for the man.

Although he was concealing his face and hair with the mask, he felt that it didn\'t have any effect on that man.

Yet, he didn\'t think the man would harm him with how he spoke and acted like a gentleman.

\'What the hell is even going on....\'

Instead of looking at the new match that had started on the stage, he turned around to see if he could look for the man again.

But unfortunately, he couldn\'t even find the man\'s back almost like he disappeared into thin air.

As his eyes roamed over the crowd, he caught sight of a grumbling green-haired boy wearing a similar green-colored mask walking toward his side.

"Oh, it\'s Steve.", he thought and waved his hands calling the guy over.

Noticing the boy waving his hands, Steve walked over leaving the crowd, and sat beside him.

"How did it go, Felix? Do you understand the methods of fighting in the arena now?", he asked somewhat tired.

Felix nodded and shook his head later before saying.

"I did kind of understand how they fight but I was still confused about some things."

Steve looked at the new match that was about to start and understood that one battle had already finished, so he replied.

"Hmm, what were you confused about? Maybe I can help."

Felix rubbed his chin while frowning and said.

"That you see, the huge man had almost ended the battle while his opponent was on his knees."

"But then suddenly, his opponent slashed his sword with an incredible speed that he hadn\'t used in the entire battle. By the way, there was also this strange man wearing a hat who sat beside me and said something weird....."

Steve listened and nodded with understanding when he heard the boy describe the battle but then his face turned dumbfounded as he quickly asked him back in a hurry.

"Wait-! About the man you\'re speaking about. Did he wear a dark coat with a suit inside and carry a silver pocket watch on him while speaking in a roundabout manner?"

Felix raised his brows at the perfect description of the man that even he didn\'t take proper notice of but then nodded and replied.

"Umm yes, he also had deep black eyes while behaving like a mysterious gentleman.", his face looked impressed at the strange man who appeared like a calm lake in the chaotic underworld.

Steve\'s face twisted sourly at the boy\'s reference to the man as a \'gentleman,\' and he couldn\'t help but scoff with a hint of annoyance.

"Gentleman my ass! That bastard is nowhere near what you\'re taking him as.", he clenched his hands in anger.

"Hmm? Do you know who that guy is Steve? Wait, if that\'s so, then you were the one who told him my name right?", Felix asked helplessly as the guy just blabbered everything unnecessarily.

Steve scratched the back of his head awkwardly.

"Ugh...that I\'m sorry Felix, you know I always get excited when someone talks with me...ehehe", his tone did not seem apologetic at all.

Felix had a fed-up expression as he shook his hand and continued.

"Anyways, about that guy. Mind telling me who he was and what\'s the matter with him."

Steve stopped his awkward behavior and sighed as he started talking about him.

"That guy you see...is an asshole through and through!", he suddenly turned angry as he recalled what had transpired earlier.

"First, he asks me to buy him bet tickets and then runs the fuck off the moment he gets his hands on it, making me have to pay for every goddamn thing.", Steve grits his teeth and curses.

Hearing what the man had done that was so unlike how he behaved in front of him, Felix couldn\'t help but make a silly face and wonder.

\'Damn! Did that man just act mysterious to play with me?\', it was hard to believe he was fooled so easily.

"In the end, I had to spend all the money I had and I also couldn\'t find him in the whole Arena. But to think he had already met you....."

Steve sighed again in frustration and finally told who the man was.

"As for who that man was? Even I don\'t clearly know about him. He approached me some years ago and told me to take part in the underworld fights, promising me lots of treasures and riches."

He shook his head at this part and showed an angry face.

"Turns out that he wanted to earn some money by betting on me losing knowing I was a clear newbie at fighting back then. Later, I got to know about it so he just made me a part of his small gang and we made trouble sometimes.", his voice seemed happy at how things ended.

"Not going to lie but being with him made me learn a lot of things and I also got a lot stronger than I used to be. So even though he is kind of abnormal and acts like a prick most of the time, he can at least be trusted a bit in this crazy underworld."

Felix nodded hearing it all as the chatterbox revealed everything without a stop.

His mind became complicated knowing about the man but he could feel that meeting him again would surely result in some better possibilities.

"And what is his name?", he asked.

Steve smirked as if he was revealing a secret and told him in a hushed voice.

"Well, nobody knows his real name, but everyone calls him Mr.Dealer."

Hearing that name Felix narrowed his eyes and thought in his mind.

\'Wtf! Why does that name make me feel like he\'s some drug dealer.\'

Shaking off his unnecessary thoughts, he stared back seriously at Steve and asked.

"What do you think he wants from me?"

Steve was left speechless as he was not sure what the man nicknamed Mr.Dealer wanted from the boy.

Even though he had said to him that Felix was a battle enthusiast and had wanted to participate in the Arena as well as the upcoming guild wars, he wasn\'t sure why the man would approach and interact with him.

"Hmm...maybe he wants to see how well you can fight and improve here at the Arena. That guy has a strange hobby of making contacts with several talented people, so I guess he saw something in you that made him want to befriend you.", he answered not sure of the reason himself.

Felix too wondered what could be the reason that man approached him.

Seeing that Felix was in deep thought, Steve shrugged and turned to stare at the match happening on the stage.

He was sure he hadn\'t met that person before, so what made that man so sure that he would come to find him?

\'That man said that he\'ll answer my questions after I win my first battle, but where will I meet with him? Even Steve seemed clueless about the man\'s whereabouts.\'

Felix rubbed his forehead and decided to think about all this later.

"Ugh...whatever, guess I\'ll have to focus on what I can do right now."

He stood up from his seat and started walking out of the sub-arena they were in.

Steve looked at the boy leaving and called out quickly.

"Hey wait! Where are you going?"

He did not stop and continued walking as he replied.

"I\'m going to take part in the Arena battles."

Hearing that, Steve also got up from his seat with his arms folded and asked strangely.

"And where do you think you\'re going to do that?"

Felix all of a sudden stopped, and turned around before walking back stiffly.

"Umm Steve, so how can I take part in the arena battles?", he asked with a polite smile forgetting how coolly he had walked out just now.

\'This crazy guy....\', the poor boy who had lost all of his money sighed wondering if everything was going to be alright or not.
