Chapter 286 - The Time Has Come

SMG was shook up after his loss at the prison escape event , he was extremely happy to know that sir Jhonny bagged a gold , but that night he could not sleep a wink , trying to figure out where he went wrong.

Trying to think about it , he started from the start , when he escaped the cell , from that very moment till when he got in the car , it was near perfect execution . 14 hours of intense focus and constant maneuvering through danger , and after all that , why did he drop his guard against a stranger?

It was a stupid mistake and it burnt him to the core , he continually tossed and turned in bed , his emotions surging , he was very very frustrated. It was then that he understood the answer upon as to why.

It was because of the environment he was in. The organization where he was from , he was in constant danger , he never truly had slept calmly as there was always a chance of attacks during night , it was a ruthless environment that kept his every sense on its edge , a man was constantly in survival mode , and although it was hard and many broke down , those who whethered it , became untouchable.

However all that changed as he joined the True Elites , he had reliable teammates , a safe environment in the upside , and a strong leader to rely on. He was no longer on the edge and had a more stable environment.

Although he had no complains about this , he also realized that luxury had made him complacent. The SMG from the assasin organization would never have made a mistake like dropping guard against a stranger just before the finish line.

His blood boiled in anger , and it was at this very moment that he decided to ditch the comfort and go back to the state that put him on the edge. ' Trust Noone and Train hard to survive another day '. The world of the Elites was too shiny and bright for him to show his potential 100% , as he was an agent of darkness.

Determination filled his eyes , he vowed to get the two other gold medals , only then would he redeem himself!

-------

The country of Japan was in a celebration every day , as their country had already gotten 3 gold medals out of 6 events , and were on the number one spot worldwide , with many many more events to go it seemed like they could expect dominating performance from their players.

The name True Elites and each and every member of the group , especially the elders became extremely popular throughout Japan , all media and news channels covering every single clip and general introduction about the members one by one in their prime time show.

It was a celebration inside the upside as well , as Ethan Grey lit the entire township up like it was Christmas , every day was a huge celebration. He along with president Shinzo Abe personally visited the guild headquarters and had a photoshoot with Rudra , Jhonny , fatty and Neatwit. While also having a photoshoot with the entire guild as a whole.

Rudra looked at that photo and smiled , he felt like this was definitely going on the guild halls wall! Along with the photo of elites batch one , batch two , and the photo of the Elites with the elves and the won knight army division.

Though the guild had tasted some victories ,the overall atmosphere was one of hugry wolves . Those whose events were yet to start were now pumped to proove their worth , while those who did not get a chance to participate this year , started to train harder for next year.

Rudra was lazer focused , day 3 and 4 was the most important day in the events day list , with day 3 being the qualifiers for the combat events

One v one fighting

Cliff fighting

First blood match

While day 4 holding the semi finals and finals.

This was the most hyped up event in the entire event list , and although all three had their own charm , it was fairly certain that one v one fighting was the most acclaimed of the three.

Just like there were many proffesions in the lifestyle aspect of the game , but only the blacksmithing contest was held in the grand collosseum.

The only fighting contest held in the grand collessuem was one v one fighting. It was the ground where countless legends were born , countless underdogs squashed , a few dark horses rising , and a few Davids conquering goliaths.

The crown of Olympics , the event the world was waiting to watch. If a difference between this event and the other two was to be made , it was like comparing football to handball . There is no disrespect at being a handball champion , a gold medal Is a gold medal. However there is just no comparison between the weight of the two victories and the Grandeur of the champions.

Karna competing in Cliff fighting

Neatwit competing in first blood match

All the Elites top 3 would be in action tommorow. With the world's eyes on the group , will they live up to the hype? Or will the Elites be squashed? , It was a make or break day for the group , should the results be good in these events , then one could say without a shadow of a doubt , that the Elites had the best talent roster in the entire Omega .

With countless strong opponents , some sneaky , some powerfull , some with grit and will , in a sport where a single mistake could topple the momentum of a hunter to becoming a prey , it was going to be a testimony of true skill.

With the top management themselves representing the guild tommorow , the atmosphere in the guild hall was electric , everyone bar no exception was going to see the event live in the guild hall.
