Showdown (1)

As Erik heard Nathaniel's words, his anger soared. He had to expect some retaliation from the motherfucker, given how crazy he was. In a weird and distorted way, Erik understood why he was doing this. Yet he didn't expect him to try to kill him in the middle of a Thaid attack.

"Long time no see, uh?" Nathaniel said, sneering.

"Just a day," Erik said. "I didn't think you would come all the way down here to meet me on this fated day. To what do I owe the pleasure?" 

"You know damn well why I came here…" 

"I see… And you brought some friends along… What? You weren't confident enough to defeat me?" Erik smirked. The easiest way to deal with Nathaniel was to leverage his giant ego.

Nathaniel's rage surged upon hearing those words.

"If I were you, I wouldn't be so bold… And besides, what's up with that ridiculous mask? Are you cosplaying? I didn't think you had such stupid hobbies…"

"Yeah, Yeah. But aren't you wearing a mask too?"
