"Why? Why would you do that?? With your mastery over the elements… Your future is limitless! Why throw it away in the Mecha Colosseum?" He asked with extreme shock lacing his voice.
"Throw away my future in the Mecha Colosseum? Why would you say that? I intend to win all four battles." I replied with a frown.
"That's impossible." He immediately replied. "The odds of that happening is extremely low, even for the most gifted of pilots with abundant battle experience. Trust me, the Empire had seen many, many gifted young men like you die within the Colosseum. One after the other, they lusted for money, fame, glory and instant gratification. And they died. It is a tragic waste of talent! Don't go down that path!"
"I am guessing they don't have mastery over the elements like me." I chuckled at the man's very emotional outburst.
