Gather for the show.

As you make your way towards the crowd, you spot various familiar faces around--your allies doing as they will, those serving under the others, Imaeris as well, etc. Perhaps it isn't the right move to split up, though on the other hand, it could be the best. It isn't like anything violent could be Elok's plan, and even if it were, it'd be better to have that element of surprise on your side as well. For now, you just need to enjoy the festivities. You peer ahead and finally see Niki, Eva, Amara, Snow, Dajy, Lala, and Stax, though they're dressed quite differently now.

Much to your surprise, they live up to the name of it all. The outfits they wear look just like your typical anime gym uniform--tiny, blue, form-fitting shorts, and white t-shirts with matching blue collars and hems of the sleeves. They all wear it well, yet it's shocking to see, both from the trope of it all, but also because it's not something you've quite seen in this world. You stare in awe at how cute and sexy they pull of the uniforms--tight white fabric barely containing some of them. They've thought of everything, as Stax's even fits perfectly despite her size.

(The men wear uniforms of the same aesthetic, but their shorts are both longer and looser. That's not equality!)

The others are there as well, though each team has a different colour. It seems your Team D has been assigned blue, but Team A (Elok) have gold shorts instead. Team B (Vex) have red, and Team C (William) have green.

"Suspicious, isn't it?" William asks after strolling up beside you. His eyes remain forward. "The whole weeb of it all."

"Not that unusual for this world."

"We know Breiah, albeit briefly, has been to Earth twice. Once to kidnap me, once to kidnap you. Yet, we have no idea if those were the only times, nor do we know what else they know. I don't think you're stupid, Warren. Quite the opposite actually. I feel confident in saying you must have seen other pieces of Earth in your travels one way or another. I believe it's literally been referred to as Isekai Theory."

"So you think he's doing this on purpose. Trying to make us worried about what else he knows. Honestly, just what we're doing right now. This is probably what he wants."

"You're right." He takes a long breath through his nose. "My mind is racing, but that likely is his goal, so I believe I've had a moment of weakness."

"We'll have to wait and see what else he does. If it starts raining Wiis, then we'll know it's time to panic."

"Oh my god, it's Demon King Warren!" comes a woman's shrieking voice behind you.

In response, you turn around, worried of the cause. Though when you see the excitement on the blond lady's face, your nerve ease a little, but are replaced by feelings of confusion instead. She's certainly a cute and busty gal, and not at all a threat, and upon further inspection, she stands next to a young man with black hair.

"Sweetie, can we go?" he asks.

The woman refuses and smiles wide. "I saw your wanted posters, and I heard you lived in a giant castle in the mountains, b-but I had no idea you had fucking demon armour!"

"That's not quite--" you try to reply.

"Can you sign my titties?!" she asks desperately. "I'm a student at Redbloom Academy. Here, I even brought my magic pen."

"Sweetie!" the man shouts in frustrated surprise.

A little bewildered, you take the pen in your hand. As soon as you do, she grabs the bottom of her shirt and pulls it right up to her neck, allowing her big, bare breasts to spill out in front of your face. All the man can do is watch as you scribe Kyle Warren right above the shape of her areolas, and as the pen tip tickles the skin there, she lets out a whimpering giggle, and doesn't at all pull away or ask you to stop.

"H-He's done, sweetie," the man says.

"Oh!" she smiles and lowers the shirt back down. "This is so amazing. I can't believe this. Such a highly wanted man is right here, so close to the fucking king. Aren't you worried?"

"No, not really," you answer bluntly.

"So cool!"

You turn to see that William is no longer present. You're not sure when he left. But you do see the bard speaking to all the competitors as she begins directing them as to what they're meant to do next. As your eyes move farther, you see the smiling beacon of light Nyllia easily maneuvering through the crowd right towards you. Her piercing stare is locked to yours, and you get a chill down your spine at the knowing twist of her lips. Despite her not speaking, you can tell when she's about to drop her façade of nobility and tease you with something.

"Enjoying your infamy?" is all she says before she takes her place beside you, and watches the show.

"Aha... Yeah. Something like that."
