In the lower parts of the Academy City was a giant clearing used as a middle ground for the residents and the academies.
This giant space was now transformed into a festive park of sorts with people sparring in the center and other type of strength competitions going on all around. As was necessary of violence, people had set up many stalls and shops all around the place with their eyes peeled open for profit.
And as natural as it was, students with nothing better to do all came over to the place. The strong types were lured in by the faculty advertising the competitions while others were being taken over by the shops selling just the perfect popcorns for the fights.
I moved over to the shops and grabbed whatever I could be interested in.
"Eugy, I think you should retire for the day."
"Really?" I asked. "I think I should go all out and have as much fun as I can!"
