One could not get muddy feet from the Tundra Sub plane. It was impossible because the Sub Plane's lithosphere was entirely covered by Ice as a result of its gravity.
The only place that could possibly have a muddy surface was none other than Imperilment.
At the thought of this, many in the audience could literally hear each other swallow hard.
Their minds made extreme efforts to wrap common sense around what many did not want to believe just happened.
This meant that Lenny had come from Imperilment and then through the harsh terrain of the Tundra that had a gravity that could literally freeze water and an atmosphere that was as hot as a volcano to literally stand before them.
It was no exaggeration to say that many in the audience instantly fainted on the spot.
Those that did not know Lenny instantly began to ask questions about him.
After all, such a person was beyond common sense.
On Seeing Lenny, Gar immediately burst out in laughter and Glee, while Agnes froze with surprise plastered all over her face.
Many in the audience had different reactions.
For the man that had be forced to bet his entire life savings on Victor, he could not help but cry out new found tears. These were not of heart break and sorrow but of joy. It was of joy unknown.
Meanwhile, at the same time, a certain group of people in the audience with robes masking their appearance, watched with interest. One of them even smiled at this, "what an interesting child. No wonder the Royal families are interested in him!"
All of a sudden, all attention had been drawn to Lenny's grand and impossible arrival.
In this moment, the arena was not merely a place of mortal combat; it was now a sacred ground where the extraordinary met the ordinary.
The audience stood in rapt silence, their senses heightened, their hearts pounding to the rhythm of Lenny's every step. His presence, like a primal force of nature, filled the air, a sensory masterpiece that left an indelible mark upon every soul present, a reminder of the boundless wonders that lay beyond the portals of their understanding.
Lenny walked up to Victor and paused before him.
Victor had a proud smile on his face. Only moments ago, he had been the object of mockery. But now, even he could taste the awe in the air.
He puffed out his chest to Lenny, "You are late!"
Lenny chuckled a little, scratching his head as he calmed down his wild aura, "forgive me, I got a little lost!"
This did not sound right, but it was actually true.
What happened was actually very simple.
Lenny had finally broken from the Cocoon about his body and wanted to go back. He waved his hand removing the bracelet that could send him back from his storage unit. However, the moment it appeared, it instantly turned to dust.
It was only as the bracelet burnt up did Lenny remember that he was still within the depths of a Volcano.
For him, it was no longer excruciating hot and now felt like he was breathing the surface air. He had absolutely forgotten and now found himself with no possibility of going back.
It was at this point that Vandora informed him that there was a Portal that had some how appeared on the sub Plane.
Immediately, Lenny had rushed out to use it and that was how he had found himself here.
Curtain saw this and frowned. All of a sudden, all the attention had been somehow pulled towards Lenny and Victor. Even the girls that once screamed his name now awe at the sight of Lenny's partial nakedness, their faces turning red at the obvious observation of his flawless body.
This made Curtain very angry. "Riff!" He called out. Riff instantly understood what he meant. Immediately, he grabbed Curtin by his shoulder and with a quick movement, the both of them charged through the portal with thundering speed.
Many had seen this. They had also seen that Curtin and Riff had not entered the portal with any Armor, leaving the armor that was supposed to protect against the incredible gravity of Tundra.
It was only at this point did everyone remember that the Tournament was still on and the permission to begin had long been given before lenny's arrival.
Some of the participants, being very proud and cocky, did not mind taking the armor anymore. immediately, they rushed for the portal.
In this manner everybody at all sides rushed into the portal.
This was after all still a competition for the position of Alpha, and everyone wanted to win.
As the Participants and their fighters rushed into the Portal, the Crowd cheered loudly.
The Tournament had began.
Meanwhile, Victor watched as Lenny waved his hands for a new change of clothes.
For reasons left to him, Victor did not disturb Lenny as he cleaned up and changed clothes.
In fact the the two of them engaged in idle conversation. It might have been the confidence that Victor had in Lenny, but he did not seem all that bothered that the others had left, leaving them behind.
"Hey, Lenny! Do you remember that guy you saved from Bitter street that time that Demons attacked?
I mean the one you saved after cutting the stomach of the demon."
Lenny was wearing his jacket when he heard this.
He paused a bit, but quickly remembered the person in question.
"what happened to him... Is he died already?" Lenny asked.
Victor shook his head. "Actually, he is not. He woke up a few days ago. He said that is name is Austin, a Magi of Town Bedrock.
He claimed that his town had been destroyed by an army of undead."
"An Army?"
"yes," Victor nodded, "he only managed to escape before they started with the town. It was after that event that he was unfortunate to have gotten eaten whole by that Demon."
Lenny raised a brow at Victor. "And what does that have to do with anything?"
Victor sighed, "Because that Undead Army has this city in its sight..."
