The Rise Of A Porter

Chapter 460 - Destruction Is Just A Hobby (1)



__

Apologies for making all of you wait, but the first round is finally over and we finally have our top three award-winning planets.

Please try to keep in mind that a lot of things were taken into consideration before deciding the ranked planets. Most important of which was the time required for the teams to finish their tasks and the second reason was the team participation of the contestants.

__

"We are fcked, aren\'t we?" Arnold shook his head in disappointment.

Just from judging the last line of the notification, he could say they weren\'t going to win sh.it anymore. It would have been okay if they had considered only the time taken to finish the task, but if they were considering team participation as well, then he had no doubt in his mind they weren\'t going to win. After all, one of his \'teammates\' had tried to kill him while four others were fined because of their planning against him. 

Arnold was very disappointed. He was disappointed to the point where he wanted to trace them down and kill them in the most horrendous ways possible. It was a result of their greed and uselessness, he potentially lost on a lot of great rewards. Thus, Arnold had made up his mind to do exactly that in case he didn\'t get anything from the rewards.

[First place: Planet Inethea ---> 35643 points]

[Second place: Planet  Sevis ---> 34843 points]

[Third place: Planet Konvone ---> 28992 points]

The contestants from the above-mentioned planets would receive their respective rewards directly in their inventories.

The Participants from planets other than the above-stated ones, would not receive any rewards except for the one that they have been already provided. The rewards provided to the winners would also remain confidential.

Arnold stood silently as the notification disappeared from his sight. It all happened just like he had thought it would. No rewards for him all because of the stupidity from a bunch of idiots. He was in a pretty good mood until now. He had received awesome rewards, created an armour that even rivalled the power of the gods, and had obtained another elite summon to do his bidding.

But now all of a sudden, none of it mattered to him anymore. He was really looking forward to the type of rewards he would have gotten and the personal rewards had pumped him up even more. But now, he had nothing. 

His summons could feel that something was up even though they couldn\'t see his expression as he was once again wearing his helmet. Talos went ahead to ask him if he was okay, but Arnold didn\'t respond. He busy was trying his best to calm his anger down before he did something foolish. For all he knew, it was most probably just a bunch of crappy rewards and nothing more. He didn\'t need to lose his calm over such trivial things now...

\'Who am I kidding? I am pissed now. And I haven\'t been this pissed in a long time.\' Arnold clenched his fist and all of a sudden a crazy amount of his aura started leaking everywhere, \'They screwed me over, so it\'s only fair that I return them their favour, right? Killing them would also help me with my ascension quest. At least I would get something out of it. Yeah, let\'s do that.\'

The next moment, a travel portal appeared in front of Arnold and just when he was about to step out another notification popped up in front of him. Reading this made Arnold\'s already bad mood get even worse.

Considering recent results of the first round, it has been decided that no vassal or paladin would be allowed to fight each other before the second and the final round begins. The gods have decided to do this to ensure that the weaker participants don\'t get targetted and killed as a way for the stronger ones to retaliate for their failure as a group. Anyone who intentionally breaks this rule would be given divine punishment by the gods. And I [The One who sees everything], can guarantee you, it won\'t be a pretty sight.

\'You people really want to screw me over, don\'t you?\' Arnold smiled wanly before closing the portal. 

He didn\'t want to take the risk of breaking the rules, especially after seeing what it could lead up to first-hand. Thus even though he didn\'t want to, he had to let go of the matter for now. It wasn\'t like he wouldn\'t be meeting them again and the next time they were face to face, he swore it would be the last time those idiots ever see his face or anything for that matter again. 

"Wait a minute..." Arnold was about to give up on his plan for revenge but then his evil mind started running in overdrive, "Talos, do you remember where those bastards lived?"

"Are you asking about Sonya and her team?"

"Yeah."

"I heard them talking about Italy."

"So... they live within my empire and still try to screw me over. Don\'t you think I should do something about that?" An evil smirk formed on his face as he said those words, "I can\'t kill them, but that doesn\'t mean I can\'t make their life a tad bit more difficult. If I was given an option, I would have tortured them instead but I want to play it safe for now."

"Don\'t worry master. It will be taken care of. I\'ll personally see to it that they pay for whatever inconvenience they had caused to you." Talos bowed to him, while the others followed his suit.

Talos readily agreed to this because he knew Arnold\'s temper better than anyone. He knew if he didn\'t agree to do something, then Arnold would end up doing something a hundred times worse than what Talos could even think of doing. So in a way, he wasn\'t doing it for Arnold\'s sake but for those who weren\'t aware of his anger.

Talos had already seen Arnold lose his sh.it for real once when Nina got hurt and he did not want to have a repeat of what happened after that, ever again. At least not while he was still around. 

"While you people are taking care of them, I\'ll try to let out some steam in the forge.. Or else, I might actually end up doing something I would regret later."
