Chapter 130: The Calm Before Blood
Alex sighed and turned toward Tina, asking in a calm voice,
"I’ve been training on my own. I just came to ask—when’s the final match? I don’t want to forget."
Tina crossed her arms and nodded.
"Final’s in five days. Practice matches start in two. You should join in—your teamwork still needs work."
Alex nodded silently, accepting the advice. As he turned to leave, his gaze briefly landed on Selene.
She wore a new outfit—tight, blue leather-like material hugging her frame, designed for speed and agility. She moved faster than before, a blur as she sparred with Rina, who was in her usual maroon jacket and jeans.
Alex smiled faintly, then exited the training hall.
He made his way to the cafeteria and ordered barbecue skewers for both himself and Hati. They ate quietly, the food warm and comforting after the long day.
By the time they left, night had already settled in.
The moon hung high in the centre of the sky, casting a silver glow across the restless sea.
