Kapitel 53: Alone in the Darkness...

''Argh!'' a groan of pain came from the man who seemed to be heavily injured, his whole body was filled with bruises, wounds, and bones popping out of his flesh.

He was currently laying on the ground, under a bridge, he was attacked by a young-looking man, but he couldn't recognize him because the darkness covered his face...

''Ugh...'' The man on the ground painfully tried to lift himself up from the ground.

With more groans of pain, he managed to put himself into a sitting position.

''...How long was I knocked out?!'' The man thought with disbelief.

He was about to return to the hotel, reserved for the referees of the tournament.

They aren't allowed in the same hotel as the fighters, because there have been rumors of players paying the referees in secret.

That's why Ramu's Higher-ups decided to be discreet and not let them stay in the same hotel.

This man left the stadium and kept walking for half an hour until he met a shadowy figure in front of him.
