"You are right, Kyris," Adora said, "let's go."
"Your highness," Adora's driver said, and she looked at him.
"Would you like us to wait here?" he questioned.
'Sure, we will need you guys, thank you," she said, and he smiled as they walked away.
"Ma'am, the tournament has not yet begun; you cannot enter," one of the guards said as they approached the gate, and she sighed before Nina decided to talk to the guards.
"We apologize, your highness," they said.
"It's okay, this is my team, we just came to look at the arena today," she said.
"I see, well go ahead, there are other teams in there as well," the guards responded, pulling open the door and they entered.
"Wow, it's huge," Ayden said as they looked around and made their way to where the matches would be held.
"It's a grand ring, it's like a coliseum, they sure know how to build," Adora said as they stared at the ring and Alix smirked.
"Your highness," someone said, and Adora turned to see it was one of the guards.
"Is there something wrong?" she asked.
"No, I will do the honors of showing you guys around, both inside and outside the arena; you can simply get lost," he replied.
"That sounds good to me, Adora, we don't know our way around here," Kyris said.
"Sure, thank you," Adora replied.
"No problem, just follow me," he said as he walked away, and they followed him.
"Here are your key cards, they will be used so that you can go in and out whenever you want, your names are in the system," the guard said, handing each of them their keycards, which they placed around their necks as he slid his by a door, which opened to an elevator then they entered and it began to ascend.
"There's a waiting area on the second floor, as well as a cafe that only opens when it's time for the matches, there are also training areas on the third floor for simple combat, and on the fourth and fifth floors VIP members have access to, including you guys, there's a lot more," the guard explained as the elevator stopped and they came out on the second floor.
"This is quite simple to understand; it's not that different from ours except a little bigger," Alix said and Kyris patted him on the shoulder.
"You are right," he replied.
"Where do you want to go next, your highness?" The other teams have already been briefed; if you prefer, you can wait in the waiting area until the manager takes you up to the fourth floor to meet someone who will help you understand things better," the guard explained.
"Adora, maybe we should get this over with since we're already here," Kyllan suggested, and Adora sighed because she disliked such things.
"Fine, we will wait; would you please let them know we are here?" Adora asked and the guard smiled.
"I will do it, you guys go down straight and you will reach the waiting area, don't be surprised if others are there as well," the guard said before leaving and they went straight to the waiting area.
"He said not to be surprised," Sarah said as they entered the waiting area and noticed a few people staring at them.
"We are getting stares, which I don't like," Yan said as he sat beside Adora, who looked them in the eyes and Yan covered hers with his hand, and Alix smiled.
"You are blocking my view, what do you think you are doing Yan?" she asked and he sighed.
"Sheesh, are you afraid of anything? Don't look at them; we don't want to start a fight; instead, let's make some new friends," he replied.
"If you don't move your hand, I will crush it," Adora threatened, and Yan pouted before turning to face Nina, who smiled.
"Adora is many things," Nina said, "but she is not crazy enough to start a fight right now."
"I am crazy, but I have no intention of picking a fight, so don't worry; besides, I feel like ripping some of their eyes out, but I will refrain," Adora said as Yan moved his hand away from her eyes and she smiled.
"You can be quite frightening at times," Eliza said, bracing her head against Adora's shoulder given that she was sitting beside her.
"Do I look like a headrest, Eliza?" she asked and the wolf smirked.
"Aren't they the new rising team?" someone whispered and Alix sighed.
"Some say they came here the easy way," another whispered, and Alix clenched his fists, feeling a burst of rage within him, and Adora looked at him.
"Alix," she called out, and he gave her a cold stare.
"Don't look at me like that, rip them apart if you want, I don't care," she said and he sighed.
"I would rather ignore them, thank you," he replied.
"That's the better way to do it," Ayden said as a woman approached them and bowed her head.
"Can you come with me, Your Highness? The boss has just arrived and would like to meet with you and your team," the woman said and Adora stood up as the other team members stared at her.
Adora stared at them with such a cold gaze that one of them jumped in fear, and Adora smirked.
"Come on guys," she said and they left with the woman.
"The boss has been waiting for your arrival," the woman said as they stepped into the elevator, which took them to the building's fifth floor.
"Who is your boss?" Nina questioned.
"You guys will meet him, be patient," she replied.
"I have a feeling the entire day will finish here," Kyllan sighed and Adora smiled.
After a short time, they arrived at the fifth floor and exited the elevator.
"Follow me," she said, and they did.
"Boos, they are here," she said, opening the large door at the end of the hallway and leading them into a big office with a few people inside and a guy in a blue suit standing by the window.
"Well, well, your highness, took you look enough," the person said as he turned around, and Adora's eyes widened while staring at him, and he grinned.
