Krune and the others took their time to rest during the last day. The next morning, all the contestants gathered in the teleportation room. Krune was one of the last to arrive. As soon as he entered the room, everyone looked at him; he thought something was weird. As far as he knew, he didn't make anything that could have caught their attention.
Poor Krune! He didn't know that everyone considered him the strongest contestant of the Yule Continent. That was because of what Ao said after the Duel; he'd easily beat Turi Belane and told him that he wasn't Krune's match. The contestants have already known that they couldn't beat Ao, and if Ao couldn't beat Krune, they would have even less of a chance. So, it was obvious everyone paid especial attention to Krune.
"Do you know what is happening here? Why are they looking at me?"
Ao shook his head and told Krune what had happened that day with Turi. Krune heard and could only give a helpless sigh.
