"How about that one?"
"Noo… she is kind of bland."
"huh… and that one?"
"Hmm… maybe, but not my cup of tea."
"Alright then… what about that one?"
"… I think that's a guy."
"…Are you sure? It doesn't look like on-"
"Look underneath."
"Hmm… oh! Now I see it." William said to Delmar who quieted down imdiately after seeing Naomi co for them.
"What are you guys talking about?" She asked.
"Just thinking about what kind of people are going to attend today." William lied.
They were talking about the different kinds of won sitting on the large stage. He was talking about what kind of won was Delmar's preference but it seems that none was close to the demanding man's choice.
Naomi nodded, "Yes, it is going to be a spectacular event today, many people of different places and cultures are going to co here to fight."
"Have you seen the previous King's Tournants too?" William asked.
"Only one." Naomi said, "I was 10 years old when the last one happened."
The King's Tournant
It was a tournant where various kinds of people with varying fighting styles are invited to co here and fight for the King's birthday event. But not every year, the King's Tournant is only hosted once every 10 years and all the kings have theirs on their birthdays and so don't.
So Naomi seeing it only one ti was true and the last one before her had happened when she was not even born yet.
"Every fight that I had watched back then was very amazing to look at. People would co from many sects and houses and show off their amazing skills and I was imdiately amazed at the start." Naomi sighed saying that, "If only the King's Tournant was every year and not only every 10 years."
William looked smilingly at her. He was surprised that she would love watching fights this much. Then he took a look at the large crowd and understood sothing.
She wasn't the only one, there were thousands, NO tens of thousands here that ca to watch people fight. Why wouldn't they when the world they live in has supernatural powers in it and every fight had special effects.
Even though he understood her reasons, he still asked her, "You like the fights that much, hah?"
Naomi nodded instantly, happiness oozing out of the white haired beauty, "I do."
"For your general information, there isn't any bloodshed."
William looked imdiately at Delmar and asked, "There isn't?"
Delmar shook his head, "Which is one of the reasons why there are kids allowed here.
"OH!"
"But it's one of the main points of why the tournant is so great." Naomi said, "It not only has different people with various skills fighting to show off their skills but it also has its elegance."
"If a good fight doesn't have at least one person losing a limb or sothing them I'm not interested." Delmar said and leaned on his comfy chair as William too had thoughts like him.
He didn't seem to think of how bizarre it was that he too thought like him or had so similarities to it.
"…" Naomi looked at him with evident anger but didn't say anything as she quickly smiled at William and said to him, "How are the seats?"
William leaned on his expensive comfortable chair and looked at the stage in front of him as he sat on the first row, "It's quite good. Good chair, front place and good food for order, so it's a GO for ." He said knowing his words would make her happy.
Naomi smiled, "I know right."
"But did you really buy this seats?... I'm sure it would take a lot of trouble to get seats like this."
"Oh! I didn't… it was the king."
William and Delmar looked at her with a weird gaze, "Excuse ?"
"I ant that it was the royal family that has invited us and given us the tickets." Naomi said, "It seems our previous few endeavors had made the king quite happy for him to send us such things."
"Or it could be that he is simply trying to buy off a good relationship." Delmar countered.
"It definitely is." Naomi said and her voice went to the professional one, "It would certainly show that he is favoring a new upcoming family and this was a good way to curry favor with us and not jeopardize to much too."
Delmar nodded, "And to add the fact that they had given us one of the best seat only preserved for such matters only ignites it."
Naomi nodded and was about to say sothing else but William interrupted her.
"I thought we had co here for a vacation." He said, "Can you guys for a few monts turn off those engines inside your head."
"Sorry, William."
"I'll try."
William didn't think much about their words and looked to the stage as a loud horn suddenly bellowed out before a man wearing a ringmaster like outfit ca to the stage.
"My dear Ladies and Gentlen." He started with a large tone.
"Today is the start of the 12th Kings Tournant and our Beloved, the King's 52nd Birthday, please give a round of applause to him." The announcer said as the cara's all pointed to the Royal family and viewed with the help of large holographic projections.
The whole stage erupted in cheers as the royal family smiled and waved for them.
William looked at the royal family it only showed off the king, his wife, and his two firstborn children. Then his attention went on the tall king who looked quite sturdy and smiled at the cara while waving in many directions.
'
Looks ordinary enough,
' William thought, ' Chapter Experience:
But it may just be his way of trying to mask his specialty… who knows?
'
The cara's cut off the king and spoke loudly, "May the king reign for thousands of years and we get to see such grand tournants in many years."
"Now without wasting any of your ti, let's get to the real show. The CONTESTANTS!" He said before backing away as the side doors opened and a one walked inside from the side way.
A guy of average height walked towards the middle point as he smiled and showed off to the crowd his midrange features as the announcer called out his na, "Pete Lamb, A guy who is quite special… even though he doesn't look like it."
The guy he was talking about, gave him a weird look but he couldn't say anything as he was thrown out the next mont.
"Now to present soone who is actually special." The announcer said and gestured to the gate as a man walked inside.
The guy was wearing traditional robes which had white and silver features with long stripes on it, the guy had long black hair that went as long as his waist and his eyes seed to not care about the announcer nor of the tens of thousands of crowd that was cheering for him.
"Presenting, Pan Huiling from the WaterBend Sect." The announcer's words got many cheers.
William too was interested but not on the guy but the weapon that he was carrying.
