Cross Dressing In A Fantasy World Full Of Magic

Chapter 158 Battle Royale

A day had passed since we saw the ranking poster. Today was also a particular day for Serena and me.

Today the first years would have their team decided. Serena, Livie, and I were in front-row seats in a battle stadium.

It was decided that every country would send in six students from every division for this year's competition.

What made this much more interesting was that other schools from the country could participate. Students that we haven't seen before would compete in front of our eyes. While I expect little from them, I hope someone here will shine.

"Do we even need to watch? I prefer having you bed me for the rest of the day." Serena was in a bad mood. Was it that time for her? But I wonder if she would be in the mood to do that if it was. Women were sometimes hard to understand.

"We should at least check our future members. It wouldn't hurt to know them early." I tried to reason with the moody Serena.

"What got you so grumpy? Is it that time of the month for you?" Livie had said without any restraint. Sometimes I envy her bluntness when she does it out of stupidity.

Serena glared at Livie when she made that comment. I ignored them as I didn't want to get involved in their fight.

About five thousand first-year students participated in this competition. The battle was a hundred-person battle royale, leaving five students out of the hundred wins.

From the math, out of five thousand, only two hundred and fifty people would advance to the next round. If you could team up with someone for the first match, that would make this fight easier.

There wasn't any rule in teams. It will be considered a win if you stay on top as one of the five people.

The matches were now undergoing. Students in the arena were now beginning to fight. There were many people with different plans.

Some choose to fight and eliminate as many people as possible. Some people stayed on the sideline and waited until the bitter end. Many possibilities could be seen in a battle like this.

To win in a battle royale, one would need both strength and brains with a tint of luck. It wasn't even long before the battle started, and more than half of the contestants had already dropped.

Two battle royals were starting at the same time. With fifty rounds doing them one by one would take forever to finish.

"This is even more exciting than I thought it would be." Serena, who was a bit moody, replied, looking at the battle with interest.

Gladiators did this kind of thing in the old days. This was also some entertainment matched with a serious matter. Our school is making banks from the spectator that paid to watch.

"Livie, make me some popcorn and drinks!" Since we would be here for a while, I needed some junk food to pass the time.

"Make me some as well." Serena had chimed in with the idea of wanting something to munch on.

Livie, who was ordered to make some snacks, couldn't help but sigh, but she had done so and made some for her.

Eating and watching were enjoyable in their own right. Two of the battle arenas had finished nearly at the same time. With both of them done, 48 battles were left.

Despite having a hundred people in the arena, the size is small. You would have to look at all angles at all times to avoid any danger.

"Charlie, look at that girl." Serena had pointed at someone in the arena.

"She had a high chance of making it to our team." Serena pointed at a human female with pink hair and was confident she would make it.

From the way she fought, she seems pretty experienced in fighting itself. I couldn't help but be impressed that she was dominating the competition.

It only took a few minutes, and the round was over. The pink-haired girl had taken out at least half of the people in the arena. Even the crowds couldn't help but be impressed by her display of skill.

"Livie, you got anyone you're cheering for in the other arena." Since the pink-haired girl had swept the first arena, another match in the same arena had begun.

"There are too many people for me to pick." From the number of people, Livie couldn't decide who to cheer for.

"Is there a need to cheer for anyone? It doesn't matter who our teammates are. The two of us would be enough for the tournament." Serena's moodiness returned.

"Cheering on the person you want to win will help you immerse yourself in the battle." That was the point of this anyways.

As time passed, more and more battles passed. Some exceptional fighters down the ring had shown strength, wits, and skill.

I wonder how they will transfer those skills for the battle they will take in the next round. Hours had passed, and the qualifier had finished.

Before the day ended, everyone would do a one-on-one fight. Out of 250 people, only half of them would be making it for the next day.

I would have liked to watch the remaining battle, but Livie and Serena had already fallen asleep in this large crowd.

The battle alone had taken most of the day and was still ongoing. Before the exit was going to crowd the spectator, I had lifted both Livie and Serena in my arms.

Just from my actions alone, it was pretty nerve-racking that I had gained the attention of everyone nearby. If I weren't dressed as a girl, I would have been stopped and arrested by the guards for kidnapping.

Arriving back home, I had both Serena and Livie on the bed. Before joining them, I went out and took a stroll.

Ever since coming to this world, I have enjoyed taking a stroll at night. Even as a Solaris, I couldn't help but enjoy the night.
