The tournament's second day officially began, and Princess Rebecca even announced the contestants' names. The event still had preliminaries, so multiple descendants entered the battlefield, occupying specific areas marked on the metal floor.
The fighters' arrival had captured the audience's attention the previous day, but many kept eyeing the main tower now. The guests were still curious about Khan, especially those who truly knew him.
The situation was no better in the main tower. Monica could understand much from Khan's short explanation, but the Thilku Lords, Tlexicpalli, and noble representatives couldn't be satisfied with that. They also felt compelled to say something about that personal tragedy. It was almost mandatory due to their status and relationship with Khan.
The representatives seemed ready to go first, but Lord Rsi took the lead. During the wait, he had seized some booze and stretched his massive arm toward the throne to offer his cup.
