Chapter 204

The crowd was overwhelming. Maxi took in the sight for a while before making her way toward the flag of Wedon. As she approached, some of the nobles directed curious glances at her. She pretended not to notice the noblewomen's overly familiar greetings and sat down in one of the empty seats. Socializing was the last thing she wanted to do.

"Would you care for a refreshment, my lady?" Gabel, her escort for the day, gestured toward a nearby table as he spoke. Its marble surface was beautifully laden with silver jugs, goblets, flowers, and trays of fruits and bread spread with honey and cream.

Maxi furrowed her brow, repulsed at the idea of eating while watching a bloody spectacle.

"N-No, thank you. Could you… check on today's matches for me instead?"

"I have already sent someone for that, my lady," Gabel responded, picking up one of the silver goblets and offering it to her, seemingly deaf to her refusal.
