55 Final Round

I'm currently on the way to the capital. I was able to get an one week leave to watch the final round of the competition. According to the prince, both Chase and his friend are in the last hundred contestants. "We're here!" The carriage stopped at the portcullis of the capital's entrance. I grabbed my bag and got off the carriage. "Thanks for the ride!" Travelers had to get their identity's checked before entering the capital. I snuck up behind the prince planning on patting his head only to be reminded I was in my short sixteen year old self's body and could only reach his shoulder. "It's awfully nice of you to come pick me up." "..." "Not even a hello?" He continued ignoring me and started walking towards the colosseum.

Chase and his friend we're waiting for us at the colosseum. "Uh.. h.hello" "Hello, I didn't think we'd be able to meet again this soon." Chase awkwardly nodded then turned to his friend. "You should say hello too, Kiyoshi." 'Kiyoshi?' To be allowed into the colosseum I had to go buy a pass. Chase and his friend had to enter earlier since their were competing. It took me about an hour to get a pass and another hour to get in. Since my seat was fairly far back, I could only tell who was winning if a person was injured or by listing to the cheers.

This round is for selecting group leaders as well as to rank the hundred contestants. The queen has ranked everyone based on who she thinks is strongest. The contestants can change their rank by challenging someone however, if they lose then their rank will drop to the lowest. A person can't challenge the same person twice and if a person loses to the one who challenged them. "I challenge number four to a duel!" One of the contestants shouted out. The audience around me started chatting. "Excuse me, but who is number four?" I asked a lady sitting in front of me. "It's a young boy, I believe his name was Chase."
