Two young men climbed down from the carriage. Both were wearing silver shiny chest te armor on top of their red dresses.


    Other one had spiky short ga hair, while the other one had medium length scarlet hair.


    The silver wristband was on their hand and the red bandana on their head had the initial ''KS''. Who knows what it meant. On their head, two wolf ears were very recognizable.


    "T-They are from the Lupine family!"


    A slight loud whisper from someone in the crowd.


    "Woooo! They are the twin of the Lupin family!"


    "???"


    At the whisper of the name Lupine, everyone''s neck was like being pulled by an invisible force when most of the people around craned their neck at the same time towards the direction to where most of the people around were looking at..


    Beside the grandiose looking big carriage on the road, they saw two red-haired young handsome men.


    "Her majesty really did a great job to open the curtain for our greatness! Right, My Cinder bro? Bwahahaha!" Grinned the young man with short spiky ga hair, while cing both of his hands on his waists andughs heartily.


    "T-That''s enough, Brother E-Ember," shyly said the person next to him who he called as Bro Cinder. He really wasn''t the type of person to like crowded ces such as this gathering.


    He wanted to y video games inside his room, and did some light training in silence, mostly at night. Although their family was known in the whole empire, he wasn''t concerned about such things.


    He only came to join thispetition because his father, the elder of their family, and the son of the current patriarch of the Lupine family, wanted him to join thepetition in the exchange of the new generation Newtendo, the Fulldive Newtendo! One of the most popr gaming consoles nowadays!


    And one more thing! He''s a beautiful ''she'' not a ''he!!!''


    Why was everyone calling her he!!!


    Even Though she has beautiful long ample legs and a beautiful lovely face! Everyone still treating her as he! That''s why she wanted to seclude herself inside her room and y Newtendo all day long. Fighting is bad for health. And everyone was treating her as ''he''.


    Her fans in the game world were treating her kindly. Maybe she would do a live stream in YT next time. Her character almost hit the apex of the level. She needed to buy that new pack. In any case, she needed money, her parents cut her allowance, and now left with none. So she had no choice but to join thispetition. Together with this muscle brain twin brother of hers. (Pout!)


    *Fidget!*


    *Fidget!*


    "Cute!" Shout the people around after seeing her shy blushing face.


    "Bwahaha! Don''t be too embarrassed bro!" Said Ember while tapping her back. (Cough! Cough!)


    ''O.....O rip, I''m a beautiful wolf girl!'' She wanted to shout. Why did she even have to wear this male armor? Hah!'' Withshoulders dropped and she sighed.


    "Oy oy oy! Look who we have here!"


    The two suddenly heard a voiceing from their right side.


    A woman and man wearing gray long dresses with spiky-shoulder pads. Both were having beautiful faces and long white hair, plus white wolf ears on their head.


    The girl''s dress was opened at the stomach area until the end, and her sexy abs were distinct to everyone who sees her. Every man in the area gulped and drooled at her while having heart-shaped eyes. Her long gray dress was paired with ck sexy shorts that were made with fine materials, and ckbat boots on her feet. She looks sexy. She was using ck lipstick and her squinted eyes were ckened also.


    Both of them were wearing gray and ck gloves on their hands towards their forearms.


    "The young miss Lyka together with the young master Harou!"


    "Goddess Lyka!"


    "Goddess Lyka please look here!"


    Some fanatic boys and girls shouted.


    ''Hmm, I will create an evil avatar that looks like her next time,'' thought Cinder.


    "Look! the Lowe and Lupine family of the Canine family!" One person in the crowd shouted.


    "Heaven! The rank 4th great family of the empire, with their two major branches families, are present in thepetition!"


    "Looks like they sent their juniors to join thepetition!"


    "They are probably serious in winning thepetition!"


    "I wonder which branch is stronger, whether the Lupine or Lowe family!"


    "Damn I''m excited for the start of thepetition!"


    "I bet 10,000 GP for the Lowe!"


    "I''ll bet 5,000 GP together with my elemental underwear for the Lupine family!"


    "THE HECK DUDE!" Many people shouted.


    Cinder wanted to cry at this shout.


    Such a noisy crowd.


    "Harou! Grrrr...!" Ember Lupine gnashed his teeth.


    "Fufufu, your mad intent ising out Ember,"ughed Harou of the Lowe family.


    "You dare to show up yourself in front of me!" Ember said while pointing a finger towards the guy in front of him.


    "Why not? This is an open to allpetition, or are you afraid to get yourself whop once again? Fufu!" Jibed Harou.


    "I dare you to do it! It''s you who will get a whoop this time!"


    "Kukuku, you two are as noisy as ever!"


    Another voice came in. They nced and saw the owner of the voice.


    "Hilion Gustav," they muttered the name at the same time.


    The other people around gasped in surprise when they saw the neer.


    "That''s the Gustav family?!"


    "The first son of Merlion Gustav, it is Hilion Gustav and his trusted member of White Leo Knights!"


    "Even their Captain Leon is with them!"


    Together with Hilion Gustav were eight knights wearing silver and gold color armors. And one of them was wearing pure gold color armor.


    "Who are they?"


    "Dumbass, you don''t know about them?"


    "Well, they are not the type of people who showed themselves in the public more often."


    "Hilion Gustav the first son of the Main Family of Gustav family! I heard he has a younger brother too!"


    "Do you mean the guy named Gilion Gustav?"


    "Yeah, him!"


    "I saw him the other day in the adventurers guild, together with Miss E the popr Artist!"


    "WOW JUST WOW! That''s some whole different level of gossip you have there dude!"


    "I''m not lying though! I even have some stolen pictures of them!"


    "....."


    "Nooo! The pure Miss E cannot be with someone! Let''s boycott her show if ever she dated someone!" A man wearing a hooded ck robe shouted.


    "The heck, dude, don''t be too rude to Miss E!"


    "Tsk, idiots!" The man in ck robe clicked his tongue.


    The topic of the crowd turned into a personalgossip.


    On the other hand,


    Harou Lowe and Ember Lupine fell silent at the appearance of Hilion Gustav.


    "Hehe, Thispetition is rather done in a bold way. Maybe this is how the empress wanted the world to know how our grand family disciplines the dogs!"


    Ember had an angry face, like an angry wolf who wanted to crunch the person in front.


    Beside him, Cinder was shaking her head. For some reason, she felt dizzy being surrounded by a crowd of people. If she had a choice she would rather roll inside her long pillow and dive in a VR game all day long. She hated going outside. She even hated going to the academy and was almost absent for the entire month.


    Harou, on the other hand, was having a pulse surfaced on his face but he remained quiet. Beside him, his cousin Lyka was having an indifferent face.


    "Hilion, don''t start a fight before thepetition start!" Another group came in.


    Hilion grinned at the familiar voiceing from behind him.


    "Theodore Hugo," Hilion whispered the name.


    Hugo was one of the branch families of the Gustav family. Although Hugo was only a branch family, Hilion would not dare to openly provoke them.


    "Oh no, even the branch family of Gustav family is here also. The popr Hugo family who were tasked to defend the borders of the empire!" A random person within the crowd shouted.


    A momentter,


    "Fufufufu, is this the gathering of the Elite family of the empire?" A chuckle from someone was heard by all of them.


    "Perhaps it is," added another one.


    All the people in the area nced and saw the other elite family.


    "The Gorthalion family together with the Senrod family also came to participate!"


    "Now, who among these elite families were going to be the champion?" Someone asked.


    More members of elite families in the empire continueding, from their branch families to their main family. Most of them were the young generation.


    It was also a good trial to test the youngster of the empire, andto see which families had the most promising magicians.


    But it''s not only a simplepetition. Because it also affects their ranking in the future. So not only their young ones were here to participate. Even some of their strongest family members were here too.


    The surrounding was very noisy with different types of whispers and shouts from the crowd of people.


    The public square of the main city of the empire has a total of 2 baseball fields wide. But at this moment, the ce was almost filled with people although not


    entirely.


    Some sprites were flying overhead. And some people were riding their personal transport birds to see a full clear view from above for the better video recording.


    A momentter, everyone immediately fell quiet when one of the soldiers announced the arrival of the empress.


    They saw her walking towards the podium in the middle of the public square.


    This whole event was being watched live in the other Kingdoms and Cities. Especially it was the live recording fromEncantasia Empire. Everyone wanted to see how strong their magicians were.


    One of these cities was of course the Human City Zone 7.


    The Human City Zone 7 became a bustling city after the appearance of the dungeon. But right at this moment, most people in the City were chilling at some pub or bars while staring at the widescreen inside the establishments. They were waiting for the start of thepetition that was going to be held in the Encantasia Empire.


    Somewhere inside the room, specifically in the room of the academy''s Ace. Miss Ice, Almina, and Maena together with Kesha were staring at therge monitor. Although, they could watch it using their Cyber Screen, watching it with others was more enjoyable.


    The three girls asked the Elder for a day off to watch thepetition that was going to happen in the empire. Well, they already did their morning training.


    At the moment, Maena and Almina were asking about things Ice knew about the Encantasia Empire.


    "Really, Miss Ice?" A sudden question from Almina.


    "Mhm, the magicians in the Encantasia had different ways of fighting," Ice replied.


    Suddenly,


    "Woah, is she the empress?" Kesha asked.


    Almina, Maena, and Ice nced back at the monitor and saw the gorgeous Encandy wearing an emerald gown and cloak, and on her head was a crown. She was walking towards the stage, beside her were the Royal Knights of the Empire together withKnight-Captain Borge Bergal.


    "Yes, she is the Empress Eleanna Encanta of the Encantasia Empire," Ice said.


    "So beautiful..." Almina muttered.


    "Yeah, she is."


    "Although the empress is no doubt beautiful on a different level, who I mean is the girl beside her," Almina said while pointing to the girl beside the empress.


    "Ah, she... she is a popr artist in the Empire. If my memory serves me right, her name is... E... Merea E. Looks like they will be using her magic for the battlefield of thepetition," Ice said.


    Merea E? Almina whispered.
