Chapter 282: Superhero (1/2)
Almina's opponent was a girl from Section B+. It also means that she was pretty powerful. Before going to the stage, she stopped in front of him. ”Uh…” Yman noticed Almina trying to say something but skeptical. He had no idea what she wanted to say, but she was looking at him.
”Good luck…” he said before she could say something.
”…..”
”Almina…” he added.
After Yman called her name, a flush of redness was visible on Almina's face, ”I will!” Almina replied enthusiastically. Then she climbed up on stage. After Almina left, Bob and Chloe asked him about his relationship with Almina.
Yman, who had no idea what they were talking about, tilted his head. ”I think we are considered as friends…” Beside him, Maena sighed, and Keremi, who was standing behind him, chuckled at him. ”As expected of my prince,” he whispered.
Bob and the others gawked at his reply. Kesha and some members of their party glared at him. Although he could feel their piercing glances, he chose not to be bothered by it.
When Almina went to the stage, everyone felt silent. The onlookers, the other participants, and even those in the VIP room.
As expected of Miss Almina, her presence could take away everyone's attention.
Rea, who was in the audience area together with Yana, was looking at the familiar person on the stage. It was the girl who suddenly hugged Crimson.
She wondered what their relationship was. She forgot to ask him about it. Also, she could not bring herself to ask him regarding it. She felt shy for some reason.
This girl with the nickname of The Black Princess, she was well, not bad. Now, let's see about her strength. Rea thought.
Beside her, Yana noticed her unease as she was staring at the stage. ”Uhm, Miss Rea, are you okay?”
”?!?”
Rea was slightly startled after hearing her name mentioned by Crimson's sister. ”Uh, eh, yes, yes!” She replied while repositioning herself.
Yana blinked her eyes. Her brother told her that Rea was an important person. Regardless, she must do as her brother said, not to lose her sight of Miss Rea.
”Miss Rea, do you know here?” Yana asked once again.
”Uh, wh-who?”
”That person on stage…” Yana asked her while pointing to Almina. She also peeked on Rea's face, to see her reaction.
Bead of sweat was visible on Rea's face. She wondered why Yana asked her about that girl.
”Uh, no—”
She was about to reply when a person beside them suddenly called out to them.
”You two!”
Yana and Rea glanced at the same time. They saw an old lady. She was on Yana's left side. She was sitting with a slight curve back.
When the old lady noticed their eyes on her, she continued talking. ”Are you acquaintances of Miss Almina?” The old lady asked.
