บท 69: To The Throne

 Aaris showed his card to everyone and they were left in awe, 

"What the-, how did you?" Crius was stuttering, 

"Hehe… well as Melvi told you about those two guys, I realized I never got any points after defeating them, so I landed a few finishing blows, threw them on the beach, and voila!" Aaris smirked proudly, 

"Aren't you ruthless…" Melvi was dejected at him, 

"Don't blame me! They were tough-" Aaris looked over Niran and noticed him, 

Niran was lost in thoughts with a dejected face.

"Oye Niran, what happened? Aren't you happy, we are going to be in the first place! Also, I can finally jump into the top 10!" Happy tears came out of Aaris' eyes.

"Top 10? Why do you want to be in the top 10?" Niran, put a smile back on, 

"Well, you see, it was just my wish to finish in the Top 10! No, no Top 5!" Aaris faked a laugh, he can't share the secret of his bet with Tara with them,
