"....?! How ridiculous!... The award ceremony is going to start soon... And what makes you think that I'll agree..."

  Before she could speak, Sol grabbed Charlotte's shoulder aedly said. "Like hell, a Bck Bull like you eve Big Sis! Dream on... Alright, you hear that? It's on, Sis!!"

  Charlotte was pletely dumbfounded by the ge iuation, especially how her own team member pushed her into a meaningless challenge.

  Soon, both of them sat down on a table with dozens of mugs filled with beer pced in front of them.

  Vanessa was so excited, taking a bottle and putting it on her lips to drink.

  The crowd of people surrounding the table cheered, enjoying the petitioween two beauties.

  Not even a few seds ter, Vanessa was drunk. She passed out from the little bit of beer she had.

  Charlotte took one sip and was drunk too. Alex shook his head and scoffed. So much for a challenge. He walked over and snatched the mug from the blonde captain's hand, drinking it.

  "You're a lightweight, you dumbo... Don't push yourself, okay?"

  Charlotte flushed red from embarrassment as it was an i kiss and fell down oable, losing sciousness.

  They had done so much more than an i kiss a she was so cute to faint from this.

  "The match is a draw...!!" The bartender shouted, announg the result.

  "You did great, Sis! You did really great!" Sol muttered, grumbling because Charlotte failed to wich.

  Oher hand, Alex stared at them and sighed.

  'Just why the hell are they peting in the first pce?'

  Alex then heard someone say that the achievement ceremony was about to start. He smirked thinking about the looks on everyone's faces when the Bck Bulls would create a new record.

  The crowd cheered as the Magic Emperor took the stage.

  "WIZARD KING!!!!"

  "REALLY!!! THE WIZARD KING!!!"

  "JULIUS-SAMA!!!"

  The crowd went wild when they noticed the Wizard King standing on top of the stage.

  Alex chuckled, 'This guy sure is popur... But I still have to take him out since he was just a tig time bomb!...'

  "This year, I'll be announg the Magiights Squad's achievements myself," Julius spoke, enhang his voice with magic to let it echo so everyone in the crowd could hear him.

  The crowd once again got excited.

  "After the results are annouhe king will also make an appearance, so please look forward to that."

  But this time the crowd turned silent for a while.

  Alex was not shocked by their rea since he had already anticipated something like this.

  With how trashy ahe King was, it would be more shog if the crowd actually loved him at all.

  A momehe crowd once again started cheering for the wizard king totally ign the annouhat Julius made about the king.

  "Now, then...As you all know, our Clover Kingdom has been battling invasion attempts from both the Diamond and Spade Kingdoms, as well as a errorist group called the Eye of the Midnight Sun. The royal capital was attacked, and many lives were lost. I even sidered g the Star Festival for this year. But it's because of all these events that I wao end the ceous men and women who fought against them, and decided to hold the festival."

  As Julius said that, the magic mps that were floating around the stage started to glow making the stage to now be the main focus.

  "Now, the us wele them...Our nine Magiights Squad captains, whom we hold in the highest esteem." said Julius.

  Just as he said that the Captains walked onto the stage making the crowd's excitement soar through the roof.

  Alex gazed at the stage and then at Yami and Charlotte, grumbling.

  "Don't you think, you should be oage at that moment?"

  Yami ughed and waved his fan. "Nah. It's just a hell of b. Why bother with sunecessary stuff?"

  Alex smiled and shook his head, already aced to Yami's antics.

  Julius soon started introdug all the captains that were present oage.

  "Tch...that demon lioness is back," said Yami as he puffed his cigarette.

  "You scared of her or something?" Alex raised an eyebrow and asked.

  "You should be too," Yami replied.

  "Though, things might be different now pared to the st time we fought since I have surpassed my limits several times," Yami said as the thought of provoking the lioness came to his mind.

  Hearing that Alex smirked. That's the Yami that he knows... and respects, treating like an elder brother!

  Yami tried to test the water and aimed some killing i at the new Crimson Lions captain.

  ...

  'Ha! Such a pain it. Why the hell did I accept to be the captain?!' Mereoleona Vermilion thought, grumbling to herself. She was annoyed by taking on the position of the captain since was addicted to being free and urained.

  As she started at the croas ily looking at her and the other captains.

  Suddenly she felt some killing i and immediately gred in the dire where it came from, notig a familiar face.

  A foolish man who tried to test his lud agitated her!

  'So you think that you are better now?!' Mereoleona thought as she fired back her own killing i at the man who tried to challenge her.

  'Alright! Challenge accepted.'

  Mereleona grinned iement.

  However, her eyes soon moved to the young man standing close to Yami, drinking beer.

  She didn't know why but it caused her to furrow her brows subsciously.

  'Hmm...who is that brat? I had never seen him but why does he seem a little familiar?'

  At this moment, Alex turned his head and stared at her. His eyes lit up with a scarlet glow and a weird grin fshed on his face.

  Mereoleona shuddered a little and a familiar figure appeared in her mind, merging with the young man.

  'Could it be...?'

  She ched her fist iement as a fire erupted in her eyes, ready to fight.

  She saw the young man moving his lips and rubbing the area below her naval.

  ...

  Yami smirked seeing that Mereoleona noticed him but his face immediately turned pale when he saw her gre which was apanied by her killing i.

  "Fu*k...I am gonna die," Yami muttered as he immediately stopped releasing his killing i.

  But soon his fear was repced with curiosity as he saw Mereoleona looking at Alex excitedly. He patted Alex's shoulder and asked worriedly. "Hey, Kid, tell me how did you provoke that demonic lioness?"

  "What do you mean? I think she is cool!" Alex replied, finishing his beer.

  "Do you hit your head, kid?... Anyway, I'll make sure to put some flowers on yrave every year if you die, okay?" Yami patted his shoulder and said emotionally.

  Alex's facial muscles twitched when he heard that, almost wanting to punch him in the face.

  While they were busy chatting, the ceremony tinued.
