Capítulo 49: Chapter 49: The Hunger

Drahyr, year 1089 of the 7th Era.

Jorael and his companions were listening intently to the Queen's story of the events of the first Demon Kingdom Tournament as they dined at a table well-stocked with delicacies. Shaneh was explaining:

"My husband was unwilling to participate in the Tournament, as he thought his plan would have to unite all the clans as they watched the victor's fights, avoiding the constant conflicts that tore the Kingdom apart.

He said that in your world you have partially resolved war conflicts by having players fight with a ball in stadiums.

Well, in the end, he was right...

But that time I begged him to listen to the Demons and become the Beastman Champion because of the hag."

"Did you ask yo­ur husband to fight to keep her from taking the throne?" Cyn'Thia asked.

The Queen smiled and replied:

"Exactly.

She mercilessly and brutally killed all the other champions, including King Krahyr, who was convinced he would hold the throne after the competition.
