Today was the day the Wild Games would officially be opening. The central stadium was already crowded with practitioners that were going to participate. Even though there were many of the elves that participated on the preliminaries present, a lot of them were missing, since they died on the forests.

The information about the things that happened yesterday was suppressed by the Secret Security Unit, not letting a general chaos happen. That situation was not enough to catch the eyes of the important people, because most of the rich elves, had bought their way up, making it way easier for the Secret Security Unit to deal with everything.

Seth entered the stadium alone and felt like a million stares were directed towards him. The elves were interested on who would be the ten humans that would participate on the event, so it was only natural that he would attract a lot of attention.

Seth wasn't bothered by that; he chose a quiet place to sit and observe everything.

He saw the people from the Allakiir family arriving but didn't see Elyra among them. She was probably hiding somewhere already.

Seth initially thought of using his Soul Sense to scan everyone present, but he decided to not do it, since there was the risk that he would be overloaded with information and end up suffering.

Sometime later a vast aura descended in the middle of the stadium where a bunch of influent people stood.

A woman appeared there, making the elves around her look at her with respect. It seemed they were encountering someone that they not only had to be polite to, but had to respect for the work she did.

She was wearing a very formal attire, that fit perfectly in her thin stature. Her skin color was just like the other elves, very pale and her hair was kind of short, giving her a fierce look.

”Chief Commander Allannia!” The elves recognized her immediately. She was one of the most famous character inside the entire city. Her position and work were very important for the security of the entire kingdom, and a day without her, people felt that the Elven Kingdom would be more dangerous.

Seth noticed that the respect people had for her, was just a bit below the respect people had for the Elf Queen. He even started to think that this excessive respect, should be another racial trait of the elves.

”Greeting, everyone. I, Allannia, the Commander of the Security Forces and Chief of the Security Department, will be the one in charge of opening the Abandoned Ruins today. There is still a whole hour for the event to start, so make sure you have formed your party of five before that time. Once you've formed it, register the names of the members and protector for the responsible people, and wait patiently.”

Allannia finished her speech and gave a look to everyone that was in the stadium. While she was observing the people, she noticed Seth sitting in a peaceful corner.

”Oh? You're the human that was invited by the Elf Queen, right?” Allannia started a conversation with him, attracting the attention of everyone.

”Yes, I am. I am honored that Chief Commander Allannia knows about someone like me. I truly didn't come here for nothing, since I had the honor to be recognized by you.” Seth answered politely.

”I'm very surprised... It is not every day, that we are able to come across a talented youth like yourself. Mana Control middle-stage Realm... What a monster.”

Seth smiled and didn't say anything. She was purposely exposing him before everyone. It was something he definitely didn't like, but he could do nothing about it.

The whole stadium erupted in a huge commotion. They had taken a test of strength at the entrance, but since Seth was a guest, he didn't take it, so no one knew his strength yet.

”What?! Mana Control middle-stage Realm?!”

”That's impossible!”

”How can this be? A Mana Control middle-stage Realm cultivator? He can't be a youngster... This is not right!”

Right at this moment, the people, from the Luberus family arrived at the scene.

Elyon and his son, Elydir Luberus, entered the stadium together with the other elves from their family and heard Chief Commander Allannia's words.

”How are you, Chief Commander Allannia?”

”Elyon?”

”I heard what you just said and couldn't be any more intrigued by it.” Elyon walked to the middle of the stadium where the influent people stood.

Allannia looked towards him and remember the words Elyra told her, however she chose to not do anything.

”What is the problem?”

”Problem? There is no problem. It just that...” Elyon looked towards Seth and recognized his face as the one that entered the party together with Elyra. He realized that Seth was probably disguising himself as an elf while using some fake ears.

Elyon continued: ”I don't believe that he was able to reach the Mana Control middle-stage Realm before thirty.”
