Chapter 2: The Festival

Just like with the main tournament, the pair tournament would take place at the knights’ training ground. There were plans to build a dedicated amphitheater like the one in the United Beast Kingdom, but the project had yet to be approved by the government. As a result, this year, both tournaments would be held at the same venue the main tournament used in previous years. Far fewer contestants had entered the pair tournament compared to the main one, so the qualifiers for the pairs would all occur simultaneously in the many rings that had been prepared. Misha and Lunoa had been assigned to Bloc C. If they won three matches there, they’d have the right to participate in the next phase of the competition.

“This is your box, Miss Ellie,” said one of Darc’s employees.

“Thank you. Go on, Alice, move further to the back so we can come in.”

“Yes, mama!”

Mireille, Alice, and I would be observing the qualifiers. Barl was originally supposed to come with us, but Traitre’s head of security had contacted him to discuss an issue, so he’d gone to him instead.

“Here,” Mireille said, handing me two cups.

“Thank you.”

I put them down in front of Alice and me. I had an iced coffee, while Alice had a glass of juice. Mireille had bought herself a glass of iced tea, and she took a sip before sitting down with us. She’d purchased the drinks here, at the venue. The box I’d gotten was higher than the regular seats, and there was a canopy over our heads to block the sun, but I imagined the spectators sitting in direct sunlight would be purchasing many drinks.

“Mr. Hokins sure came up with a great business idea,” Mireille commented.

“The simplest ideas are often the most effective ones,” I said.

“He’s also quite efficient. He managed to implement the suggestion you made about performers in a very short time. I imagine he’ll make tremendous profits just from the sales of food and drinks.”

“Absolutely,” I agreed.

Just as Mireille had mentioned, Darc had been quick to make my idea a reality. While his usual areas of expertise were moneylending and controlling black markets, this went to show he was also a talented merchant in general.

While the two of us chatted, Alice clapped, mesmerized as an acrobat did a handstand atop a tower of three large balls. Eventually, the pre-qualifiers show ended, and the contestants of the pair tournament took to the stage. The qualifiers for the main tournament would only happen after they were done, and for the time being, the seats were far from packed. I imagined that was for the best. Fewer spectators would surely make the experience less stressful for Lunoa and Misha.
