It was Karl who was approaching him from behind on his way back from the gym at that late time.

Although Arnold didn\'t fasten his footsteps, that was an advantage for Karl to approach him quickly. And when he did, Arnold had no choice but to stop.

"What do you want from me, Karl?! What???" Arnold asked furiously glaring at his former roommate.

"Please, Max. Just hear me out," Karl seemed to be calm and sincere, but his appearance never made Arnold release the feeling of disgust.

"If you noticed, I and Ben aren\'t together anymore. I have come to discover that he is evil and only wants the downfall of people, especially you. I can\'t be a friend of such a monster... And..."

"And how does that concern me?" Arnold questioned in disgust. Actually, does that have to do with his concern?

"Umm... I just came to apologize for what I had done at the university. I know I had wronged you as a friend, but now, I have realized my mistakes. Please, forgive me, Max," Karl begged with a grim look.

Arnold was someone who had a strong heart, however, this strong heart could easily be melted on specific occasions.

Before he could even say a word, Karl was down on his knees, pleading.

"I have made sure I break every connection I have with Ben and his family. And I promise not to be a bad friend ever again. I hope you can forgive me," Karl said with a breaking voice, melting Arnold\'s heart bit after bit.

Without realization, Arnold grabbed Karl\'s arms and urged him to stand.

"It\'s okay, get up," Arnold muttered.

Karl hesitated and noticed that Arnold\'s anger had died down. With inexpressible joy in his heart, he stood up and stared at Max Fury.

"I forgive you... After all, it\'s a burden to be someone\'s enemy. Especially with those who had a good heart in them just like you, Karl," Arnold smiled at Karl, "I forgive you."

Karl smiled widely upon hearing this, a slight hint of shock in his eyes. He never thought Arnold could forgive him after what he and Ben had done I\'m the university. But here he is, after breaking his evil relationship with that bastard, the incredible Max Fury had forgiven him, but...

"But, we wouldn\'t be close friends like before. I am more of an introvert now, and I have two wonderful friends who don\'t want an addition to our ally. I hope you can understand," Arnold said.

Although Karl felt bad hearing this, it never killed his delight. After all, he needed his forgiveness the most.

"I understand. But you have to know that I got your back. I will always be by your side," Karl pledged, causing Arnold\'s heart to soften further.

He could only nod as a reaction, being short of words.

Then he gave his right hand for a handshake, which Karl quickly embraced with all his heart.

After the handshake, Arnold went his way, while Karl followed his.

"Pheww... Another friend request. I am having a tough time with Mark and Lila, then Karl is requesting to be on the list???" Arnold muttered.

In recent days, Arnold was, somehow, having regrets about having friends in Capside Centre. It was now that he understood that he was more of an introvert than an extrovert.

Literally, having friends was not his thing...

But...

What could he do to get himself off the burden of having friends now?

He clearly had no choice, knowing he was going to hurt that feelings if he told them to stop coming his way.

"The only thing I can do is to limit my time and pursue my dreams. I will only give more attention to the one I love," he was directly referring to Mia with that statement.

While his mind dived into her, he remembered his plan to meet her at the university this weekend. It was already Thursday, and he only had a day to get himself prepared. He would be leaving for Arizona on Saturday.

Heading back to his room, he freshened up and decided to visit the internet. While Arnold scrolled through Grindhouse Wrestling\'s page, he saw a post that caught his attention.

It was a video announcing the upcoming "Fallout" pay-per-view in the top shows. This was a pay-per-view show where both Rampage and Slamdown participated. Although it had other matches, the main event of this event was the 30 Men Royal Rumble Match.

Back in the early years of professional wrestling, the best wrestling promotion "WWE" then had made this pay-per-view event the second best after "WrestleMania".

Until now, the rules were still the same and intact, with the actual culture still practiced. Anyone who wins the Royal Rumble would be given a clear opportunity to face any champion he desires at the top shows.

Arnold watched the video to the end and discovered a mind-blowing feature.

(13 men from Rampage).

(13 men from Slamdown).

(4 men from Grindhouse).

Arnold gulped curiously and watched the video again. He saw the same thing, revealing that he wasn\'t just seeing things.

"Four men from Grindhouse Wrestling? This means, I can get an opportunity if I try to earn it," Arnold scratched the back of his head.

The fact that he is a champion made it possible that he could actually be among the four men who would join the Royal Rumble Match at Fallout comes January.

With that feeling, he pondered and hoped for a go-ahead from the general manager. It was late November already, and the Fallout pay-per-view was gradually drawing near. I\'m no time, it would be announced, and the four men would be picked.

Arnold didn\'t see a reason why he wouldn\'t be selected, so he was calm and collected, having no feelings of uncertainty in his mind.

Before he dozed off, all that was on his mind was the possibility of entering an actual Ultimate Revolution Professional Wrestling stage...

And winning the Royal Rumble Match!
