For a moment, the entire Colosseum was silent, as if processing what had just happened.
Alex's words and his sudden appearance had caused their minds to slow down a bit.
Then, an explosion of noises happened.
"HE OVERSLEPT?! THAT'S WHY HE WAS LATE?!"
"THAT'S TOO DOMINEERING! This guy really treats the tournament like a side errand!"
"Seriously... how much confidence do you need to have for that?"
Laughter, cheers, and incredulous shouts filled the arena, and the curiosity about Alex's sudden appearance in the arena was dissolved.
They didn't know that Alex had just arrived, and in order to make up for being late, he had put on that domineering act.
'My bad, blud. But you are going to be my scapegoat,' Alex mentally apologized to Leon, knowing that Leon's image was going to go down the drain after this match.
The audience, on the other hand, was still talking about Alex's attitude.
