Chapitre 194: The World Tournament Festival, Begins!!

Akasan led Jean back to Starlight Square. The sun was going down, and the city came to life. There were lanterns and lights of every and any color strung from building to building and light post to light post. The scent of freshly fried foods filled the air.

"What's happening?" Jean asked.

"There's a tournament going on tonight between this country and the Northern Territories. And just for fun we threw a festival along with it."

Jean's eyes sparkled. "It looks... fun."

Akasan nearly laughed. "There's still an hour before the tournament starts. You wanna take a look around first?"

Jean nodded enthusiastically. She took his hand and dragged him along.

"Okay, okay! We don't need to rush! How old are you anyway..."

Agaki sat in one of the seats outside of the tournament stage, taking in the atmosphere of the festival. He closed his eyes.

"Hey, Agaki. Long time no see."
