The exams were over; it wasn't tough, but it was time-consuming. After the exams are finished, we will be given a three-day break. I wonder how I will spend my time with that.
"That was quite a show, Serena. Glad that went well."
"I'm so jealous of your magic." Olivia, who saw her show was impressed. Olivia's magic is impressive. I don't think she would need to feel that bad about it.
"It was decent." Jenny looked away, unable to admit it.
"I aim to impress." She puffed her chest out of pride and gave a confident smile showing that she was expecting her results were good.
The four of us finished exams having nothing left to do. So we left, and the results weren't going to be shown immediately. Instead, it will be shown during the end of the three-day break.
"Why don't the four of us do something fun!" Olivia, who was with us, had an idea. I didn't mind it, so I agreed to it. The other two didn't have anything else to do, so they also agreed to her choice.
Taking a stroll, we came across a long line. I was wondering what people were lining up for. It must be worth seeing for them to stay here for a long time. Also, the building that they were waiting for was huge. Maybe we could check it for ourselves.
"Do you know what they are lining up for?" I wondered if they knew what people were waiting for. They shook their heads left and right, without knowing what they stood for.
Going over to the person, I asked her what she was waiting in line for. "I was wondering what this line was for. If you don't mind me asking." I politely said to the person.
Facing me, she spoke. "Oh, this is the line for today's monster battle arena. Every day at noon, the owner of this establishment opens the monster battle arena and brings in monsters they captured for us to see. You could bet money to see which monster would win if you're confident in your choice." She gave us an explanation of this place.
"Sorry for disturbing you." I bowed, leaving her alone. She didn't have to explain it, but I was thankful that she did.
Heading back to my friends. "It's a monster battle arena where monsters are pitted against each other," I told them what the people here were waiting for.
Different reactions were coming from them. Serena didn't seem to have much interest in that. Olivia was curious, but it didn't seem like her thing. But Jenny looked like she wanted to watch it. Her eyes were gleaming from anticipation.
"Do you guys want to check it out?" I wanted to see if they didn't mind going in and taking a look.
"I have no particular thoughts about it," Serena said, not caring if we went or not.
"We've nothing else to do, so let's look." Olivia was right. It's not like we have anything else to do other than walk around and chat.
"I don't mind having a look at it." Jenny talked, trying as hard not to sound too excited.
"Since no one has any objection, let's wait for it to open." The line for this place was long, but seeing how big the building was, I wasn't surprised if it could fit everyone here.
We only had to stand in line for ten minutes before the gate opened. Everyone in line was walking in, in an orderly fashion. The inside of the building was far different from what I had imagined. It was a stadium that had a circular battlefield.
The main lobby was filled with receptionists taking in every customer they could. Going to a free receptionist, and she welcomed us.
"We would like four tickets to the front seat." But, Serena haughtily said that I sometimes forget that Serena is highly unfriendly to people she doesn't know or care for. So, I smiled bitterly, hoping that won't happen next time.
"That would be 4 gold coins." She dismissed Serena's attitude quickly. Being a receptionist must be tough to deal with all kinds of people. She gave Serena four tickets for the front seat.
"Would you like to make a bet for today's winner? Today's battle will be a rank four Deadly Molten Bear against a rank four Giant Freezing Scorpion." The receptionist told us about today's competitor.
"Money has no importance to us," Serena said, leaving the main hall with us having to follow her. There were food, drinks, and snack stands in the next room. We left the place immediately, knowing that Olivia could conjure us if we wanted.
Entering the front seat, we could see the ring was surrounded by a magic barrier to protect the spectator if there was a mishap in the battle. The magical barrier made it better here to be strong enough to protect us with how close the ring and the seats were. Otherwise, this place would be a health hazard.
Taking our seats, from right to left, it was Jenny, Olivia, me, and Serena who were grabbing my bum from our angle. No one would be able to see it. I looked at her weirdly. Was she feeling horny? Sorry but I wasn't much of a more outdoor doer guy, If there was no one nearby, I might've, but I wasn't.
"We can do it after," I whispered to Serena, grabbing her arm. She blushed from my breath, hitting her ears.
"Olivia, can you make me a salty, buttery popcorn and an orange soda." It was a good thing popcorn was a typical snack in this world; otherwise, explaining it was a pain.
Making them with magic, I grabbed them. "Olivia, where would I be without you." I put my snacks on my seat and gave her a hug and my cheeks against hers.
"Hehehe~" She giggled from the pleasure she felt from receiving my affection.
