The demon princess was defeated and captured? Sorry, I acted in it)

Is that the end of it?

No, no, no, look at the spectators in the oval viewing area in front.

The men were dressed in formal clothes, wearing swallowtail leather hats, holding tobacco leaves in their hands, while the women were wearing brocade hats, heavy makeup, and shawls with half-held gorgeous feathers.

Just from the way these audience members dress, speak and behave, one can tell that they are all nobles from various countries and there are no commoners.

That's right... For an event like today where tickets are so hard to come by and the censorship is so strict, it's not surprising that the place is filled with nobles.

The original front row of seats for nobles were upgraded to a place where only great nobles or royal families had the right to sit.

It is worth mentioning that the nobles present are not only humans. The oval seating area has been divided into many areas according to different races. For example, the demons with black wings, the blood-sucking species with fangs, the elves with long ears, and even some big orcs have all been arranged in specific seating areas, separated from each other by a long distance.

The purpose of this arrangement is, on the one hand, to ensure orderly management, and on the other hand...

This is to avoid conflicts on the scene.

This gladiatorial contest that brought together all parties came really suddenly, and the relationship between the different races could not be said to be very harmonious.

The most obvious example is that the war between humans and demons has just entered a period of intermission, and the situation is still tense.

Therefore, the seating areas of the human race and the demon race are the farthest apart, one is at the easternmost end and the other is at the westernmost end.

The host announced that he had finished his opening remarks, and called on the staff to add some magic concentration to his amplifying crystal.

The volume, which had just been expanded to twice its normal level, was still not enough.

After all, if you look down at the venue, you will find that the streets outside the arena that were blocked by the Kingdom Knights are already crowded with civilians!

This battle...

The host feels that his career has reached its peak!

The event arrived as promised.

In such a lively atmosphere, Miss Xia Ya was looking around anxiously!

"Hurry, hurry, hurry, Xia, it's broken!"

"Xia Ya, what's wrong with you? Did you forget to bring something when you went out? I just said I would check it carefully again."

"No! I wouldn't be so anxious if I forgot to bring something!"

"Is something big happening?!" Xia suddenly became alert and vigilant.

"It's more than a big deal! I just looked around the venue, and today... it seems there are no free donuts available!"

"..."

"Not only donuts! There's nothing else to eat either... ah!"

I really knocked your cute little head.

Xia retracted her knife, stood up unhappily, pushed Xuefei back to her original seat, stopped her looking around for food, and responded.

"Because we need to ensure the safety of the leaders of the two countries today. The free donuts are provided by vendors, and they are not allowed to be present at an event like today."

"Damn... This policy is not humane at all. Those who give out free donuts are undoubtedly good people. Can't we give good people a little more trust? Oh, what a pity. I can only find an opportunity to buy some outside with my own money later. It turns out that free food is more delicious..."

"Xia Ya, I have good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear?"

"what?"

Appeared!

The choice between good news and bad news is the most difficult multiple-choice question in the world!

Looking at Xia's mysterious smile, Xuefei felt that it would be more appropriate to be conservative in this matter.

"Then... let's hear the bad news first?"

"Okay, the bad news is that it's impossible for you to go out and buy donuts. Not only are they not allowed to be distributed in the venue today, but even the business district in the capital is under control and is not allowed to operate."

"Ugh...!! It hurts!! This is absurd! How can you use state affairs to disrupt people's livelihood! This foolish king! I will pull out his beard!"

"calm!"

Xia felt that if she had not reacted in time and hugged her waist, the extremely angry Xuefei would have really pulled out the king's beard in public!

This matter could not be delayed, so Xia quickly told everyone the "good news" she had brought.

"Don't worry...! There is good news! Don't you want to hear the good news?"

"Listen, the bad news is enough to make the sky collapse, and the good news can hardly save it."

"Without donuts, the sky has already collapsed, right? Your sky is really short, almost as short as your height."

"Xia, you are a bit aggressive today. Is it because you are going to watch a game of attacking each other, so you are warming up in advance?"

"I really couldn't help it. Sorry."

Xia would not admit that she was jealous of Donut again, so she was extremely aggressive.

Push Xuefei back into her seat.

Xia picked up the small bag she was carrying with her, and her innocent smile was charming.

"The bad news is that there are no donuts for sale today. The good news is that I bought some in advance yesterday. Ugh...!"

"Xia, you are my God! You are simply a God! I will worship you as a broad-minded God!"

"There's no such god, right?! Hehe...pat my head, is this considered as my sister's preparation for a rainy day?"

"Do the math! My stomach and I will both praise you!"

Xia threw her upper body onto Xia's legs and raised her arm to take the bag of donuts. Xia lifted the bag high and took the opportunity to touch the top of Xia's silky long hair.

Wow...it was worth it that I remembered to prepare the donuts in advance last night!

The place where they were sitting was still the VIP seats in the front row.

Logically speaking, Xia is a hero. The title of hero does not confer the title of noble or official, but a hero can enjoy the same treatment as royal family. This is a natural privilege that is tacitly accepted by the people.

As a subordinate knight of the hero, Xia Ya naturally got another precious front row seat~

Xia Ya, who was tamed by the delicious food, was beaming with joy while holding the big bag.

And a childish voice suddenly sounded on the other side of her.

But Xia Ya frowned and said it was bad luck.

"Well... That's great, Xue... Lady Xia can eat donuts, and the hero can touch Lady Xia's head. I want to eat donuts, touch Lady Xia's head, and have Lady Xia touch my head, but unfortunately, none of them can be realized."

"Wow, you guys, your breasts aren't that big, but your ambitions are pretty big?"

As the substitute champion of the previous competition, Siletella also sat alone in a seat.

Xuefei sat in the middle, with Xiao Shengjian and Xia sitting on both sides of her.

The little holy sword placed his fingers lightly on his lips, with a longing look in his eyes, and it was unclear whether he was longing for the donut or for Xuefia's forehead in front of him.

Seeing that Siletella was about to pounce on her, Xuefei quickly took out a donut from the bag and blocked her mouth.

This is Xuefei’s exclusive sealing technique!

"Well?"

"I'll let you be so arrogant, now sit still! It's really unbecoming to make such a fuss in public."

"Mmm!" (Okay... okay! Thank you for the strict teachings from Lady Xuefeiya!)

Xuefei simply ignored the fact that the person who was making the most noise was actually herself.

Siletla patted her chest and tried hard to swallow the donut, her big, sparkling blue eyes filled with contentment and ease.

[Please be patient, audience friends. It seems that the scene still needs some preparation. The contestants are gathering backstage. The exciting competition will start soon. Please wait for a while! I will inform you of any new news from the scene as soon as possible, so please don't worry! ]

The host was as dedicated as ever, running around the venue, busying himself and taking on everything.

Xia Ya weighed the donuts in her arms, a healing smile on her face, expressing the joy of the harvest.

At this moment, a series of footsteps were heard, and a familiar, pleasant and slightly hurried voice emerged from far away.

“Ms. Xia Ya! Lord Xia Leit…! Huh… I see you are here. This place is really too big!”

"Livra, is it possible that the venue is not big, but your legs are short, so you run slowly?"

"Eh?! My legs aren't short. Miss Xia's legs are short!"

"I was joking. Uh... Don't look at your legs and then my legs at this time. It makes me feel humiliated. You are very rude."

"Blame...blame me?! It was obviously Miss Xia Ya who started it first...!"

"Alright, alright~ It's not good for a princess to be so fussy. It's not graceful~"

"..."

How blood pressure rises.

Livra hurried over, originally wanting to find Miss Xia again to confirm the matter of Princess Xuefia's participation in the competition.

But before she could say anything, she tilted her head and saw a cute blue-haired lolita wearing a black and gold dress.

This loli is sitting with Miss Xia Ya and the others, and now seems to be eating donuts with difficulty?

Difficult...difficult?

Livra didn't think much about it. She always asked questions directly.

"Who is this little sister? Miss Xia Ya, is this a friend of you and Master Xia Leit?"

"Oh, yes, this is my distant relative, her name is Xila."

"So that's it... Huh?! No, Ms. Xia, aren't you an orphan? How can you have distant relatives?"

"Can't orphans have distant relatives? You look down on orphans, right? Is there a problem with distant relatives who are not blood relatives? There is no problem."

"A distant relative without blood ties... eh... am I... am I not awake yet... or is there something wrong with my ability to understand...? Woohoo, I'm really so stupid!"

Xia watched all this calmly.

In my heart, I apologized to Livla on behalf of Xuefei.

I'm sorry, Lady Livra, you're not stupid. It's just that Xuefei is using her evil humor to torture your limited wisdom.

Regarding the matter of Siletra, Xia and Xuefei had already discussed the excuse when they were at home.

So let Xia explain this matter.

"It's like this, Lady Livra. Sira is an orphan who was born in the same town as Xia. I picked up Xia, and Xia picked her up. Because we share the same suffering, Xia calls her a distant relative. It's just a joke."

"Huh... So that's how it is. I thought there was something wrong with my understanding. Alas... During the war, there were many orphans created by displacement... It seems that little sister Sira is also a pitiful person. Uh... Sira, this name sounds familiar... I didn't watch the last competition, but wasn't the previous champion of this competition called Sira?! Ha... No, it must be a duplicate name."

The moment this thought came into Livra's mind, she completed a self-denial.

Phew, indeed, this is probably just a coincidence.

Sister Xila looks younger than Miss Xia Ya, how could she have the ability to win the championship? It is impossible that all the poor orphans that Lord Xialet picked up at home are geniuses, right?

What she saw...

But it was Xia Ya who shook her head and Lady Xialet who nodded.

Somehow, Livra could understand.

Miss Xia Ya shook her head - denying what she had just said, expressing that this was not a coincidence.

Lady Shialet nodded——she was saying that Sira was Sira, and that she was indeed the champion Sira.

“Is this true or not…

. She is so young..."

"You call me young?! How dare you...! To be honest, I am your ancestor...! Ugh!"

Xuefei sacrificed another donut to block Siletella's mouth.

You're getting a bargain for eating two of my donuts in a row!

Livra didn't know what to say. It turned out that Miss Cilla was so strong?

It's strange...why is it that every time Livra comes to visit Miss Xia and the others, she always gets hit?

Shrugging and laughing bitterly, fortunately Princess Livra's self-regulation ability is very strong~

Now, more than anything else, she hoped that Miss Xia Ya and the others would find their trip worthwhile.

"Today's competition is worth looking forward to, Ms. Xia, do you know? Just yesterday, I heard that even the top adventurers in the Adventurer's Guild have signed up to participate!"
