9. Another fucking quest

I was teleported off the rock and into the waiting room where I had entered. IHATETHISSTUPIDFUCKINGICAN'TBELIVETHIS. I kicked the wall in anger, and immediately regretted it.

I checked my inventory, and it seemed the sword had somehow gotten in there. Eh?? Well, that's probably good. I still have a weapon.

I stepped outside the waiting room, still fuming, to see all the other contestants just waiting there as the sunlight slowly started to fill the arena. I glanced over at the steampunk guy, who gave an agitated look back at me. Eek. So, what are we waiting for? The winner?

Suddenly, half of the audience broke out in cheers of celebration, and the other half groaned.

"And it looks like Technoblade has achieved an epic victory royale! Congrats to TapL for making it in second place as well!" the old dude announced, and Technoblade and the dude with the mask (who I assumed was the one called TapL) appeared in front of everyone. Didn't I get third place?!? Do I not get a prize?!

"Ayyyy, good game," Technoblade said, and shook TapL's hand.

"Yeah, haven't seen you in a while," TapL agreed. Technoblade chuckled and took a bag from the old dude, which was probably filled with the prize money.

"What made you come back to participate in this tournament, eh?" the blue cat-eared boy asked.

"The coins, of course," Technoblade responded and the bag of coins disappeared in his hands. What a boring reason.

"Alright! TapL and Techno, please wait in the room for an interview, which you guys probably already know," the old man said, and motioned to the waiting room. "The rest of you can leave with a complimentary gift bag, and have a good rest of your day!"

The arena slowly started to empty, and I followed the crowd which led out of the arena. There were a lot of people watching us here... huh.

"Hey, Tommy!" someone called out, and came over to me. Oh, it's Ty.

"Oh. Hi Ty," I said, "How'd you find me anyways?"

"I just decided to go to my boss after you disappeared, because I had to report what I've done so far. It just so happens you entered the tournament where my boss was. How convenient," Ty replied, and shrugged. "You really screwed up at the end."

"Yeah, yeah, whatever. Hey, is there any way I could talk to that Technoblade dude?" I asked. I could get free training from him! Maybe! Well, he didn't instantly disqualify me, so....

"Uhhh... maybe. You could talk to my boss, he could get you to Technoblade," Ty shrugged. Aha! Who is Ty's boss anyway?

"Sounds great! Uh... where's your boss?" I asked, and Ty motioned for me to follow him. We went back to the tournament, to see Ty point to a tall figure wearing a cloak.

"Ah, kid! Haven't seen you in a day or two," the figure replied in a welcoming voice, "And who's this?"

"Tommy. He was in the tournament, now he wants to talk to Technoblade," Ty answered. I looked at the hooded figure closer. He seemed to be wearing a long brown cloak connected by some kind of gold coin with an S engraved on it. The points of some kind of horn barely peeked out from the hood, and his face was completely hidden.

"You want to talk to Technoblade, eh? It'll cost you," the figure said. Ty sighed.

"Why should it cost me?! There's no absolute reason and no way in-" I started ranting, and the figure interrupted me.

"Go and play with your crayons, kid. How about this? You'll be in debt to me in order to talk to Technoblade. Seems fair, yes?" the figure said, and a paper seemed to appear out of thin air.
