Kapitel 2369: The Stage for the Next Competition

Alex felt a hint of jealousy and regret upon seeing Leafheart get the pin. Given that he was just one step behind her in the competition, had she made a mistake, it would've been his. Everyone else was jealous as well, but only he felt regret.

"I wonder," Killersky said from the side. "Do you have to have won the competition to use that pin, or do you just need to have it?"

The group around her turned toward her. "Are you thinking of stealing it, Sister Killersky?" Riveroak asked.

"I'm merely wondering," Killersky said. "If I were to win the next one, I will need to know if I need to be able to defend myself or not."

They watched Leafheart return to her place with the pin in her hand. "I don't think we're finding out," Aethersage said. "Poor girl might get attacked as soon as the competition is over."

"You all don't have to worry about her," Alex said. "She's Senior Pinkflower's disciple. If anyone is stupid enough to go after her, let them."
