Euphoria
After the brief conversation with Kristofer, Luke, Nathalia and Shiro soon had to say goodbye to Ayumi Yamazaki again because the participants' stand was separate from the VIP area.
The trio climbed a few flights of stairs, accompanied by a member of the competition organization. These members who helped with administration, reception, and assistance were all employees of the Central Palace, and this was obvious from their long and light-colored clothes.
Luke had seen the Municipal Arena from the outside many times but never seen it inside. Now that he had the chance, he noticed that the walls were rough, and the whole structure of the place was built by combining three materials: limestone, granite, and basalt. Thanks to this combination of materials, the entire place had a yellowish and weathered color but was more resistant than any other building in the city.
