Know your place [5]

"…childish"

Such word escapes Nathan's lips. Miller who is standing beside him is the only person who hears it.

Nathan walks to front and speaks something to the commenter.

'Some people simply like chaos.'

For some reason, these words enters Millers mind as he watches Nathan's back.

"It is correct that I cheated."

"But won't it create problems if I leave the tournament now? How about this…"

"All of you come at me. Whoever takes me down can take my place."

The jeering stops as everyone stares at Nathan, wide-eyed.

"Sir, this is not all-"

The commentator, about to dismiss Nathan's claims, suddenly stops. Pressing the intercom closer to his ear, he listens to the new instructions.

"WHOEVER CAN KILL SIR WITHIN 5 MINUTES CAN REPLACE HIM IN THE TOURNAMENT!"

A deathly silence prevails at the commentator's announcement. They couldn't believe what they heard.

Nathan pithily breaks the silence.
