Adrian furrowed his brow as he watched the academy staff carrying the unconscious Evangeline away.
'This… is going to be a problem.'
He could already feel the shift in the crowd's attitude, though the audience seemed more shocked by the fact that Saria Velcyra Mythrien defeated Evangeline rather than the fact that Evangeline lost.
Maybe it was because of the show Evangeline had put on during the practical exam. Moreover, the fight itself had been rather intense and flashy.
Adrian stood up from the seat and began walking towards the hypogeum.
'Since Evangeline lost, the one I'm going to be fighting will be the daughter of Mythrien.'
And he didn't like his chances.
The wait inside the hypogeum was much longer than expected. He was assuming that the extra time had to do with treating the injuries Saria may have received in her fight against Evangeline.
But soon his name was called, and he stood up, leaving the hypogeum.
