Chapter 1065 (2/2)
Carter hoped to cross the finish line in this outfit before Morning Light
He had heard some ruht had beco before Prince Roland caht that he and the Star of the Western Region could not be s for Morning Light, but Ferlin had already fallen in love with a new actress, Irene
Carter had never heard May ainst Ferlin
What's so great about Morning Light?
May liked you just because she didn't have a chance to meet me back then
Carter wanted to prove to everyone that he was the best for May!
That hy he wanted to overtake Ferlin Eltek so badly
Carter tensed his muscles and quickened his pace Ferlin was only half a step ahead of him
And he could see the stand beside the finish line now
It was time for a final push!+
Suddenly, he heard so behind him
Is there someone who can catch up with us?
How is this possible? In the first hour of the race, Ferlin and I left all the other participants in the dust No one should have been able to catch up with us Even if he deliberately saved energy at the beginning of the race, he should've started to speed up little by little a long tiy than running at a consistent pace!
Carter could not help looking back
”Wait What's that?”
He saw a strangely dressedhim at an incredibly fast speed From the man's skin color and tattoos, he could tell that he was a Mojin, but he had never seen a Mojinears on his head
Is he trying to gain strength by iht, and then dashed toward the finish line as fast as he could, as if a dreadful monster was after him
Ferlin, Carter, and Rohan crossed the finish line at almost the same time The spectators burst into cheers
Did I win?
The Chief Knight thought while panting heavily Because of inertia, he continued to run several dozens of meters before he finally stopped After he stopped, he immediately looked up toward the stand
Roland Wiratulations! You've successfully coreat results!” the king spoke to all the people through the loudspeaker ”The gaot the top three runners now They are—”
Carter sed hard
”Carter Lannis, who finished in third place”
Hearing that, the Chief Knight closed his eyes in great disappointment Oh, hell, was I still a little bit slower than Morning Light?
”Rohan Burnflame, a Mojin man, who finished in second place”
Roland paused for athe spectators a moment to cheer When the crowd quieted down, he raised his voice again
”And the chaive them a warm round of applause!”
”Huh who's she?”
While everyone else was shouting and clapping their hands, Carter, Ferlin, and Rohan stood agape
On the side of the street, Honey closed her notebook and hopped off Vader's bike ”I've finished today's report Thank you very much”
”Did you decide on the headline?” Vader asked
”Yeah, I did” She s, ”I'll just directly write out the results”
It was already eye-catching enough
