Klautz wanted to build the foundation upon which he could stand on equal grounds with the second gen.
'A step at a time,' that was his motive and goal to avoid the ninjas and secure a stable position for himself.
Albeit such an endeavour came at a side effect of gaining quite a bit of fans among the newbies after the duel. The small ripple that was created at the entrance ceremony was already intensified into towering waves at the duel against Colt Ackerman.
"Big Brother, you were so cool!" Shizu squeaked.
Just an hour ago she could have sworn to her forefathers that she wanted to kill Klautz for scamming her. And her forefather would have scolded her back claiming that it was her own mistake.
But her mood had made a complete 180 degrees after Klautz had defeated Colt. The only thing she wasn't satisfied with was the fact that KLautz had not beaten his black and blue like the other challengers.
