Despite having the skills to back it up, Kiev was notoriously arrogant and difficult to get along with, and many disliked him.

Now that a newcomer had pushed him off the leaderboard, everyone was eager to watch him fall.

Ha mocked, ‘Already buttering up the newbie? Is it really necessary? How pathetic. The novice won’t even bother interacting with you.
