I focused on muscle training and stretching to loosen up and calm my mind before lunch.

I can see people coming into the arena bleachers. The noise is getting louder and louder.

People might die, yet there is so much excitement. So many different cultures in such a neighboring country.

I feel like a condemned man about to be executed. I don't intend to die at all, but the guards give me that vibe.

The guard opens the door and motions for me to come out. I let out a small exhale and get out of the prison. Our footsteps echo in the corridor.

I wonder if he is ...... a good person? Don't worry, I want to walk this path and I'm just enjoying the path I've chosen for myself.

The closer you get to the entrance, the more lively it gets. Nothing has started yet, but there's a lot of cheering.

I thought they would be more harsh to sinners, but they are kinder than I expected. Maybe it's because I'm a child. Do you see them as your own children?

There is a fence at the entrance, and it seems that this fence goes up with the beginning. The seating is designed to look down on us.

I mean, how can they speak the same language in a different country with a different culture after all these years? Is it because it's an Otome game?

Well, it's definitely better that way. It is easier to communicate when the language is standardized. But we can speak the ancient languages of various countries. I learned it when I read it in a book a long time ago.

The bigger sword is more powerful, but it is in the way when I move. ...... I don't think I can compete with a hungry lion with such a small sword, but it can't be helped.
