Chapter 95: Celebrations (1)

Erik walked away with an ashamed look. He knew he had just been lucky that Jacqueline did not die, and he was thrown out of the competition.

The crowd was enraged. In their opinion, Erik used a lethal move and had to be kicked out of the tournament.

They protested vehemently against this injustice, but no one could do anything since the healer's words were clear.

Erik did nothing wrong despite being a hazardous move, as he didn't kill his opponent or injure her too seriously. The healer then remembered to the crowd that this was a serious competition authorized by General Becker himself, and they had no say about the rules.

Erik then left without further incidents or comments from anyone. In the end, he was happy since he was one of the 22 finalists that had the privilege of joining the Red Palace.

The real tournament, the one deciding the final rankings, would start tomorrow, and Erik had to prepare himself.
