A black aura surrounded Eregn as he could see the fear emerge from Braga eyes letting go of Eregn an backing up.
" How dare he speak to My Lord like that ! Master do you want me to tear out his eyes an scorch his flesh until he begs for death ! " Malfist telepathically screamed into Eregn mind.
" No Malfist.... least not yet, he has things I need an we must not let his rudeness cloud our judgment. "
" Yes My Lord I will stand down...for now. "
Eregn look at Braga as he began to snap out of his fear. " Luna told me you could get me the items on this list. " Eregn handed Braga the paper.
" Luna??... did you say Luna well why didn't you lead with that hold on one second... " Braga took the list an went behind a curtain into the back of his shop stand.
" What the hell happened ? how did that kid make me freeze up like that...he couldn't have used magic his mana should be nullified...he reminds me of.. " Braga began to shudder as he grabbed everything on the list putting it into an box dropping it in front Eregn.
Eregn began rummaging through the box making sure everything was there grinning from ear to ear.
" Thank you ! what do I owe you ? "
Braga scratched at his massive beard.
" Since Luna sent you so it's on the house tell her we're even, now beat it kid. " before Eregn could even react Braga dissapeared back behind the curtain.
Eregn put the items into his spatial ring an continued to browse around the huge market, he could see a what look like a boxing ring except it had red inscriptions that created an barrier that matched the red hue that was surrounding the ring people yelling an cheering so he decided to see what the commotion was about.
Walking closer Eregn could see two men in the ring with black collars the same mana nullifiers on their necks as both of the men stood across each other in torn clothing with their guards up across from each other.
One of the men had long dark grey hair that stopped a little past his shoulders wearing an cowboy hat on his head, he was toned with muscles with a scar that went across his nose horizontally, an stood around 6'1 the other was heavy set with a brown mohawk with hair all over his body except his face that stood about 6'7 and looked like an giant.
Suddenly an man wearing the same grey suit as Goldy an Silva appeared out with a red mask that had an angry face on it with an microphone stepping out in front of the ring.
" On the right we have the Grizzly Giant ! The Monster of Mayhem ! The reigning King of the Pits OOORRRSOO ! "
Orso began to flex an yell putting on a show for the crowd pumping them up even more.
" And on the right we have the new contender that's been making a name for himself the Rogue Cowboy ; Hitman from the West ! DAMIAN BISHOP ! ! ! ". the crowd began to go wild as he tipped his hat showing he was ready.
" Place your bets Now ! "
" No way this guy can beat King Orso I'm putting everything I got on him ! " yelled a excited man.
" Are you insane Damian tore apart the last guy he fought ! " yelled another making his way to the betting booth.
" Interesting, what do you think Hades, should I participate in this an place a bet since I didn't have to pay for the items, I still have the money I would have spent to use. "
< I dont see why not...definitely could use a bit of fun...hehehe >
Eregn made his way to the betting booth as a man with a blue mask that had an sorrowful expression on it was standing there.
" Hello good sir... who do you want to place your bet on ? The minimal requirement is 100,000 credits " said the man in the blue mask.
" Hmm... that's a good question who should I pick..."
Eregn turned around towards the fighters an inspected them after he got finished he smiled wickedly an turned back to the booth.
" Put 500,000 credits on the new guy. " Eregn handed his card to the blue masked man as he swiped it then gave him a ticket.
Eregn turned back around to watch the fight as the announcer stepped back in front of the ring.
" That's it everyone the bets are all locked in let the fighting commence ! "
Orso began yelling as he ran toward Damian trying to grab him, but Damian was much to fast dodging his reach, Orso swinging his massive arms trying to land a blow while Damian side stepped an dodge with ease.
" You think your going to take my Crown You think your the first to step in here thinking your hot shit your going to learn today that all those other fights we're meaningless ! " Orso suddenly landed a heavy blow on Damian causing him to stumble as blood dripped from his mouth, now Orso was able to finally reach out an grab Damian arm bringing him in for a bear hug holding him in his grip trying to squeeze the life out of him.
The crowd began to go crazy as Orso started crushing him when suddenly his grip loosened up on Damian an he had a blank stare for a second, Damian took the opportunity to break out of his arms an began to throw several blows at Orso face ending with a uppercut.
Orso was sent back flying into the barrier causing him to land on one knee shaking his head like he was trying to snap out of a trance.
Looking back up at Damian he could see him smiling slyly under his hat raising his hand motioning him to come on, pissing Orso off causing him to yell rushing at him.
Damian took a martial arts stance while slowing his breathing down crouching, just when Orso came close he rotated around him kicking the back of his leg causing him to fall while Damian jumped up in the air rotating his hips as he used all the strength in his leg to plant it firmly into the side of Orso head.
Orso neck jolted to the side as the crowd could see his eyes roll to the back of his head showing he was knock out an could not continue to fight causing the once rowdy crowd to go silent.
Damian calmly walked back to his side of the ring as the announcer showed up with two other men picking Orso up and dragging him off.
" Well folks... Looks Like We Have A New KING OF THE PITS !!! "
The crowd began to yell an cheer some was mix with moans an groans of disbelief and disappointment of what just happened, but only one person truly knew what really happened.
Eregn stood smiling like a mad man after inspecting the fighters he realized that the collars were rigged in the favor of Orso, so while the crowd was going crazy when Orso punched Damian and grabbed him, Eregn summoned a spirit to possess Orso causing Damian to get the upper hand.
< Great job kid ! smart move now our winnings just doubled hahaha >
" It's only right it was never going to be fair fight in the first place I just even the odds. "
Suddenly Eregn felt a tap on his shoulder turning around he could see a silver hair girl smiling slightly at him.
" Hey Eregn I see your enjoying yourself. " Luna eyes got wider looking at Eregn ticket.
" Yeah looks like I got pretty lucky today thank you for bringing me here. "
" No problem maybe you can get me something nice to thank me, follow me to collect your winnings an after that I got a suprise for you. "
Eregn an Luna made their way to the betting booth as Eregn turned his ticket in along with the card to the blue masked man as he transferd his credits onto his card handing it back to him.
" So what's the surprise ? " Eregn asked looking at Luna smiling happily.
" Follow me this way. " Luna lead Eregn past the market area an the battle ring to another door that had inscriptions on it, putting her hand on the door it began to glow then dematerialize
they both walked into an all white room with red inscriptions on them.
" What is this place ? " Eregn turned back to look at Luna an standing next to her was Goldy an Silva
" I'm Sorry Eregn. " Luna eyes began to glow as she blew a smokey mist that surrounded Eregn.

Soon Eregn could feel his eyes an his body getting heavy until finally the last thing he could see was Luna, Goldy, an Silva standing over him.
