Chapter 33: The Meeting (2)

”She has been like that ever since She has no friends because that's what she wanted She has schedules all the time, in and out of school Every after school, she still has private lessons under different subjects Even during weekend she will always be doing so similar before”

I nodded So that's the reason of her somewhat isolated attitude to others Now it made sense

”I realized her plan of joining the Cup back in our freshs and became extremely focused to the mastery of her ability No one will try that hard if they don't have a plan to participate That's a coh

”Victoria wants to join the Cup because if she wins she will have an opportunity to become a member of UBSL When that happens, she doesn't need to follow the plans of her family anymore It's a rare opportunity to become a member of UBSL and it's also not easy to just back out fro business”

Luna partly turned to me

”I think they are in quite similar situation, her and Team Captain On the same year we entered as freshmen, it was also the same year that Captain's brother, Priaht victory for Hesperia after the last froreat expectation for Gin beco a senior student, his turn to participate in the Cup Everyone's already foreseeing that he will bring the 4th victory like what his father and brother did”

”Oh,” I replied

Their life sucks One advantage I have against these perfect people is at least I can do what I want, to be where I want and when I want That's why I just let myself be swept into this place even if it's not in my plan Somehow, I can say I'm free in a sense since I still handle my own life and et to choose That's why I don't regret anything

”If Victoria wanted to join the Cup to escape,” Luna continued ”Tea as his responsibility They are under the same pressure but two different causes, both will eventually lead them to the same result Ironic, isn't it?”

I just nodded

Luna also told me why Ethan wanted to join the Cup It's for his sister who participated the Cup six years before Priam's turn Ethan's sister's name was Eliza who's a deceiver Unfortunately, they didn't reach the final location before the wipeout that's why no one survived froroup Luna said that the time difference is only a minute; just a mere minute and they could have survived

Cain joined because that's what he really wanted It's been the aspiration of his faious Cup That's why his parents were hout their clan Their family was pretty close so Cain was also happy to do this for them

Lastly, Luna? Well, it's clear why she was in the group Although, she didn't have any plans of joining but since she excelled in the mastery of her ability which she actually didn't even notice, she was selected She said she's studying well for her Dad; he was a healer and she wanted to help hiht her to another direction

I thought then we're somehow interconnected even if in an unintentional fashi+on At first everything was all just for the prize; the status that will be received, or s Those were the different reasons that led us to the saroup

I'uess at one point we all have similarities after all

Afternoon ca slashed party You could barely see a student outside because all of the ready The decorations in the chaant The surrounding was filled hite and black flowers together with the glistening of the crystal chandeliers hanging froe where each parent, representative and teachers will have their speech was also elegantly arranged

A few , I was still in avethe dark red, like so dress that Miss Aura sent for ht It actually fitted htly turned to see my backend loudly cursed

”fuck”

What kind of dress is this? Is this still a dress? It's just only a thin fabric with expensive designs This is ridiculous This is only to show off, to tell everyone how much money one has, to waste for an expensive cloth that could not make the wearer comfortable I nearly wanted to wear my uniform instead and just wave this cloth in front of them They will immediately understand what I wanted to convey and it's also comfortable
