Chapter 233: Battle Royale
’ What just happened here?! ’ Abrielle’s thoughts screamed. The arena was filled with live, the crowd cheering as almost everyone was hyped about that chaos that was about to unleash itself.
The arena was divided based on class, the commoners, and the high society, which was divided based on the level of importance. The highest families included the Nightshade family. They were the pillars of Darconia.
The highest was always the Von Drakkar family, the royal family. Abrielle sat with the royal family, and Eleanor was nice enough this time to reserve a seat for her. It was not too surprising Callista had a seat with the royal family seated by Eleanor’s side.
Abrielle didn’t care if her seat was a bit inconvenient at the back; she just wanted today to be all over.
Her eyes went over to the Nightshade booth, and Abrielle was surprised to see her mother waving at her. She returned the wave, seated in the Nightshade booth were Rebecca, Pierre, and Mikhail, the high pope whose presence was mandatory during the spring festival.
Her parents had arrived a few days earlier than Mikhail and his wife Ava. They were Sebastian’s parents. The Nightshade booth was more comfortable than that seat she was given, and her mother had kept a seat for her, but Abrielle dared not go over before another controversy about how Alfonso had successfully caused a wedge in her marriage.
Her eyes drew back to the centre of it all; she could barely recognize the contenders due to the sunlight that was reflecting off to her eyes. Her seat didn’t have proper coverage.
"I hope I don’t get blind before the end of today," Abrielle complained.
Back on the stage, all the participating knights were already gathered, and it wasn’t surprising to see the 3 princes participating this year.
