Chapter 72: Emma is Shy

"So, you're strong, right?" 

"Yes, of course, I am; my mom said that I was one of the most talented awakened of this generation," said Emma with a proud air on her face.

She seemed to really like to show off and wouldn't lose an opportunity to do so.

But what she had just said made Aiden think, if she was one of the most talented awakened of her generation, then would she also participate in the Inter-Family Tournament just like Aiden?

"Are you participating in the tournament?" asked Aiden, only realizing this now.

"The Inter-Family Tournament? Of course, I am! I'm the strongest there is. I'll make sure to bring back good rewards for my mother."

'Can two members of the same family participate?' thought Aiden as he remembered that Maelis didn't give him much detail on how the selection of the participants actually worked.

"That's cool, I'm also participating," said Aiden, not mentioning his doubts and instead waiting for her reaction.
