章節 441: Chapter 441:- The Price of Tradition

With the break of a new day, the city-sized stadium once again hummed with life. Swarms of spectators flooded in, the undercurrent of their anticipation and excitement almost palpable. Even though the news of the sudden demise of the four old nobles had cast a shadow over the tournament, the event was not put on hold. The three dukes and the duchess already had successors lined up, but according to Deep Sea Palace's rules, they couldn't assume their roles until the tournament concluded. This left the seats of power empty for the next six days, adding to the suspenseful atmosphere.

Aditya found himself at the tournament once again. However, today was different. Today, he was in the company of Laura's personal maid, Kate. Kate was well-connected, and thanks to her, Aditya had managed to secure VIP seats. He was now comfortably nestled in plush seating, with an unobstructed view of the entire arena.
