Chapter 122 - 123: Provocation
"But gradually, the powerhouses got used to it. Some of them would even prepare outfits to outshine their rivals. Overall, it was good." Hal was also a bit helpless. Saying that seemed to make the mystery vanish. It smelled of capitalism.
Gradually, others also arrived. Hal spoke to the point that his mouth went dry. If this were strangers, then he probably wouldn’t have done this. Despite being calculative, he did have a soft spot for his teammates.
Finally, a powerhouse who doesn’t need an introduction arrived. It was the Chairman. Beside her is a girl wearing a veil. Like snow, the two of them were wearing white that looked almost indistinguishable from their skin.
"Oh, Sellene is here." Clea spotted her and recognized the veiled girl immediately.
Her face isn’t visible but based on her steps, she seemed to be still weak. The Chairman was supporting her as they walked through their seats.
Others were looking at them, so did Cail. It wasn’t because of something else but the red string on her wrist.
She seemed to have an attachment to it. Bored Cail had an idea, but not for now.
Finally, after everything settled down, there was a huge bang inside the pavilion. If this was a normal place then they would have thought that a bomb exploded, but no... well, it wasn’t really any different because the organizers set off fireworks inside the pavilion.
BANG! BANG! BANG!
