Wolf of the Blood Moon: A Blood Magic-Chapter 5Book 6:

Scarlet

I let out a yawn as I sit in a booth at the very top of the stadium for the Annual Interschool Tournament while resting my face on my fist, feeling a little bored at the opening. One being carried out by Black again. Just like the last few years.

The tournament was postponed this year due to the Fae Ascension Tournament, but theyre finally starting it up. And its also the first time Im actually attending the tournament as someone other than a competitor. Since I havent attended as a spectator before.

And we welcome you all to the very first Interschool Tournament since the Ascension Tournament! Blacks voice echoes across the stadium. But I take my attention away from the man as I briefly send a bunch of clones out to deal with all of the Corrupted Fractures that just appeared through the world.

Annoying.

I quickly take care of each of the Fractures before returning all of my focus to my main body right as Black shouts, Say hello to Her Highness, the Wolf of the Blood Moon, Warden of the Red Plague, and a hell of a bunch of other Titles, Scarlet Art Asger de Archeron! Right when a spotlight shines on my booth, making me narrow my eyes slightly.

Even more annoying.

I simply incline my head a little in greeting, making a lot of my fans scream and shout in cheer.

And there ya have it! The Princess acting just as aloof as always! Black says, making my eyebrow twitch slightly in irritation as I glare at him. Now lets move on before she kills me! I raise a brow. Like, right now.

Right. Good choice.

He quickly moves onto introducing the first competition of the tournament as all of the competitors gather in the arena below. A competition that I remember very well as that demon hunt one.

Honestly, I never really got the chance to compete in the tournament again myself. Was always too busy to do so due to all the stuff that went on over the past few years.

Like fighting in the Fractures, the Class V Fracture, going to Tartarus, then all the stuff that happened after that. Like the Fae Tournament, and the war with the demons.

This tale has been unlawfully lifted from Royal Road. If you spot it on Amazon, please report it.

And by the time I, well, had time to do it again, I had already graduated from the Guardians University. So I wasnt able to compete.

Not to mention that even if I competed, I wouldnt really be able to do much. Not when Id literally just wipe out everyone in the competition with ease.

So it kind of feels a little nostalgic watching this. They even added a new little event to the tournament that hasnt started just yet. One that should happen after this competition.

And Im actually rather excited to see this one.

Because this extra event will include the junior high school students and high school students. Which Aria has become one of this year. An eighth grader to be specific.

So I get to see Aria competing in a competition today.

The only reason I have any interest in this tournament is because of that.

Hard to think of Aria as a teenager though.

I smile slightly at that before glancing at the door when I hear a buzzing sound from it. Then I look forward as a screen appears in front of me. One showing Amelia standing outside next to Blue, who has mellowed out a lot since his emotions returned.

After a brief glance at the arena which has quickly turned into the forest full of demons, I go ahead and open the door, letting both of them inside. Then I summon two seats next to each other on my right.

Good morning, Scarlet, Amelia says with a faint smile rather similar to my own.

Morning, I tell her with a nod.

Good morning, Scarlet, Blue, or, rather, Alexander says been trying to alter how I refer to him since hes not a psycho anymore with a nod. But I can tell most of his attention is on the arena as he sits down. No doubt trying to see if he can find Aria.

Its rather nice, but he and Aria have grown a bit closer over the time since he got his emotions back. Not as close as a real father and daughter pair, but a lot closer at least. To the point that theyre like friends at least. And shes gotten comfortable around him.

So thats very nice.

Hes also started spoiling the hell out of her.

At the rate theyre going she might end up moving out of my place and into his by the time shes in high school.

On that note, is Aria even down there yet? Not sure if the junior high students are even down there with the college students.

I focus on the arena again before frowning as I see Anthony out there. The half void creature half human guy.

Although I do wonder is the same thing that happened to me happening to him as he ascends through the Classes? With how I became more and more demon the higher my Class became? Except for him becoming more void creature? That would be frightening for him.

Rather interesting to think about, but doesnt really affect me, so I dont really care beyond a mild curiosity.

Unless he becomes a danger that is. To society.

No idea how void creatures work, but I do know that no void creatures are sapient. Not even the Class VI one.

Either way, I let out a yawn as I lean on my fist again, my elbow on the arm rest of my throne.

Thisll be interesting. To see Aria competing against people her own age.

Up till now the only people Ive seen her competing against were people my age. Like Anthony at the Fae Ascension Tournament.

I tap my fingers on the other arm rest for a few seconds before briefly wondering where Tar is.

Hope hes doing okay.
