After Conrad was successful in completing the first Divine Script.
He stopped working on the Divine Script.
He believed now that he had some understanding of it.
He needs to focus on something else for a short time and come back to it again to have more creative understanding of it. He believed that he worked best like this.
Whenever he learns something new, he focuses on it with all his power and then gives himself some time before looking back to what he learned.
"Now."
"I have two important things that I can do."
"First is fight with a floor master and become a floor master."
"Second is to focus on gathering people for the team or make a team-based NEN ability."
He first wanted to deal with the matter of becoming a floor master.
He believed fighting against a floor master is good training for him.
He opened his computer and searched for the floor masters.
Before he took the mission to kill Lanista Matilda, he did some research about it.
So, he had an individual within his mind.
As always, his focus is on not finding the weakest one to become a floor master.
In reality, becoming a Floor Master was not that important for him. He wanted to become one to have more powerful opponents that he could fight.
"Yes."
"This man is the best and most powerful one," he said as he looked at people.
"Reginald Laxia"
"Floor Master"
"He came in second in the Battle of Olympia."
Compared to all the people, Reginald was the real deal.
Despite this, Heavens Arena Fighters were not that big of a deal, but the fact that they still are fighters is still there.
Mafia Families in Black Whale was taken aback from Hisoka due to the fact that he was a floor master like Chrollo is in terms of power.
This meant that for most nen users who are not that powerful and whose focus lies on fighting nen battles, Floor Masters are dangerous enemies.
A relatively strong floor master must have equal power to a Shadow Beast.
"Now."
"The only thing I need to do is send a battle request."
"Due to them being floor masters, they cannot decline it."
Conrad thought and then sent the battle request challenge to Reginald.
-
Reginald was in his room eating some breakfast and checking the news as his screen blinked for a moment, and then he looked at it with a smile.
"Conrad Everest."
"Challanges you to a battle."
"Please set a time; not more than fifteen days will be given."
Reginald took a deep breath.
"So, compared to all of the people, he still decided to take me on as an opponent."
"He must know that I am more powerful than others."
"It must mean that the reason I was chosen is because I am powerful."
"I guess he has some guts."
Floor Masters have different rights compared to Heavens Arena 200s fighters.
When Chrollo and Hisoka battle in the Heavens Arena, they can make the battle a "death match" compared to an ordinary battle.
This was a right given to them. If a floor master is challenged, they cannot decline the challenge.
But they can still counterpropose a death match.
The challengers have the right to reject the death match, but they cannot challenge the same target they have rejected from the death match.
For quite a long time.
-
Conrad, who was waiting for the challenge to be accepted, looked at the screen as it changed.
"Reginald accepts the challenge and proposes a death match to be set."
"You can decline, but after declining you will be needing to wait one year to challenge 'Reginald.'"
Conrad smirked.
"Oh."
"A simple bluff."
"I don't know about his history, but it seems like he is used to real life and death battles."
"Every powerful nen user can guess that most of the Heavens Arena nen users are not accustomed to death and life battles."
"Maybe he thinks the same to me too."
"It means that he did watch my battles and noticed that what I lack is the experience of such battles."
"He believes that I know it and will reject him."
"Too bad..."
"I did not want to kill without a real reason."
"But if he is the one who wants to die in this arena."
"I am not going to take a step back."
Conrad then accepted and set the match for tomorrow.
Normally, the floor master challenge can set the time of the battle tomorrow to fifteen days later, but after counterproposing, the time choice is given right to the challenger.
-
Reginald, who kept on eating and drinking, did not look at the screen. He believed 100% that Conrad would choose to not fight him.
He knew that Conrad was strong, and he also knew that he was not experienced in terms of death battles.
When given a chance, cautious people would choose to back away instead of fighting.
At that time, the screen changed again, and then Reginald got up from his seat with shock on his face.
"Is he a maniac?"
"He accepted the death match."
"Not only that, he also says that he will fight in tomorrow evening..."
"This is not expected."
Reginald thought and let out a deep breath.
He did not expect that one second he was having fun and a great breakfast and now he will need to fight to the death against another nen user tomorrow morning.
No floor master has the right to reject; if they reject, they would be fired from the heavens arena.
"Okay then." Reginald nodded and confirmed he saw the challenge.
With him accepting, huge news started getting marketed to people.
Conrad Everest versus Reginald Laxia = Deathmatch!
Heavens Arena knew that both individuals have a lot of fans and people following them.
It is the best time to make money for them, and they have only one day.
In no time, all types of tickets were sold out and billions of yenout, poured into the betting pot.
